Critique Corner

Previously you've commented that I'm a bit of a fraidy cat with my vocals...I don't know if that can be improved on much because I have weak lungs...asthma and a smoker...DOH! So that being a factor I can only deliver so much OOOMPH...aside from that what ya think? This was sung after I considered your last critique. Tried to give it more ooomph...but only so much in there (cough) lol ;)

Sorry I was away from my duties for a day or so.

Better. You were gettin' all up in our grill there! I liked it. Your pitch was pretty good except for a couple of spots. Lots of clunking the mic around though. That detracted from the recording. Try to keep it raw without the clunks.

Take a bow, I liked your attitude.

You do alright for yourself. The same things go for this one as the others. Enjoy your singing. You are a decent singer.

You don't sing badly, but you have pitch issues here and there. Your vocals are not expressive enough. It sounds as if you are just going through the motions. Put some passion into the singing. Feel the music and project what you feel. You also have some bad hiss in the recording. That needs to be fixed. I hope this helps you.

When you have a free minute I would like you to critique this please :)

It just so happens you have submitted my favorite song of all time. You missed a couple notes. The vocal was not as powerful as Gary Moore. But this was beautifully done. It would be a sin if you ever stopped singing.

Take a bow, that was great.

This was not sung well. You have very significant pitch issues. The power in the vocal was also lacking. You will need to put in some work to improve.

I like your voice. There were slight pitch issues occasionally. There was a lack of feeling present in the vocal as well. But it was a good listen. You have excellent potential. Keep working.

Take a bow, that was lovely.

Your pitch is way off. Your voice sounds good. Your recording quality is good. You must work on singing the notes properly. Perhaps this is why you are not getting comments.

This was decent. Your pitch is quite good. I believe you need less treble and more bass on your vocals. Also, your consonants are too pronounced. They are usually subdued when singing.

Take a bow.

This was a good performance. There were some small pitch issues here and there, but not bad. Your voice sounds good and the recording quality was acceptable.

Take a bow, keep working.

There were significant pitch issues in your performance. Your vocal sounded a bit garbled and slightly distorted at points. Enjoy your singing and keep working towards getting the notes correct.

Thank you so much for your time and help......appreciate it greatly.

Sorry for any delay, I've been on the road of late.

In both your offerings there were pitch issues, but they were not severe. Also there were puff sounds and mic clunking that detracted from the quality of the recording.

The pitch was not right on at times. The recording was good and your voice sounds good. You definitely have potential. Keep working.

Thank you for your time!

This was well done. Your pitch was acceptable. The vocal mix could have been a touch louder.

Take a bow, and turn yourself up.

You sang this well. Too much effect. There is white noise in the background that must go as well.

Take a bow, fix your tech issues.

You might consider taking the effect down a notch. There is nothing to critique on this. It was a good performance.

Take a bow.
