Nevelinde singing a random original song. ^.^

[Nevelinde]

Hello again!

Okay, this is my second recording on this forum... Mainly I want to know if there is any improvement over the last song (the Pocahontas one). ^.^

This is a completely different kind of song - it's an original song, with original lyrics, in a sort of trancey-dancey style.

I hope the mixing is vaguely okay... sounds okay to me but I'm sorry if there is any horrible ugly distortion... hopefully NOT. :)

OK enough babble ^^; THE SONG.

(And psssst, there are lyrics here if you can't understand what I'm singing XD ---> http://destiny-hikari.net/songlyrics.htm#THEMESSAGE)

*sniff* I am unloved! ;D
Please? ^_^; I'd really just like a couple of opinions on the singing itself. :) I'm trying to improve, but my friends and family are all too nice to really critique it!

It's not a very big file, go on, you know you want to! XD (pssst, pretty please with sugar on top??? ^.^)

I clicked the link and my computer totally freaked out on me. o_0 I freaked out too.

You have a nice voice. n_n;; You need to work a bit more on your lower range, but other than that, you have a wonderful voice.

Very nice lyrics, and very well mixed! I don't usually like that type of music, but I loved it. You have a very melodic voice, but at some parts you sound a little timid. Try to sing out a little more. And, I love the suttle harmonies!!! Well done!! ^_^

[Nevelinde]

Yay, I am no longer unloved! *dances and hugs* Thank you for the advice and comments ^_^

Okay, so. Lower range. Yes indeed. *Makes mental note to practise* ;)

Can I just ask a question? - About vocal registers and stuff... if anybody knows! Is there some way of singing in my lowest register without my voice sounding sort of...harsh? See, I can sing the lower notes, middle C and down, quite a lot stronger in my low register but it sounds sort of weird...! XD Just wondering if there's some trick to it, something I can practise a bit.

Or, should my middle-ish register strengthen with practice and breathing exercises etc. so I can sing these notes with more power, without needing to use my "weird" lower voice? Just wondering. :) Any help on this at all will be muchly appreciated!

[Yami no Kitsune]

Practice is the key. Just remember to support notes with your diaphragm, and make sure your not singing from your throat, so to speak. ^_^

Awesome! I love it, such a nice voice, calming and the lyrics make me cry! *weeps*

It's so beautiful!

I dont' have constructive criticism, but I want to say that I really love the song!

[Hitomi]

Wow, this is really impressive! XD Exactly the type of music I listen to too! It's so soothing, but upbeat at the same time :D Keep it up!! I'd love to hear more of your singing! Ganbare! p(^_^)q

[Hitomi]

Oh, forgot to ask ^^" Did you compose the entire song by yourself? Or was it an original song that you modified in Fruity Loop (or something like that)? Just curious XD
