How to sing HIGH NOTES with low voice.. 

I have a new vocal technique channel uploads every week. ru-vid.com/show-UCptWfm6ZZ5rRfvycLEYqqfw

"most guys are gonna get pretty high once they figure things out" lmao

That "panic" when reaching high notes is so accurate Edited: wow 192+ likes never have this kind of achievement in life haha

Am I the only girl watching this? (I really HAVE a low voice)

5:21-31 sounds like Mickey Mouse climaxing.

Ever since i hit puberty, i can't do the high notes like what i've used to before .

This has helped me a lot bro. I’m a Bass Baritone. Before I started using your tips my highest average chest note was E4, now it’s A4. Thank you very much

I've seen lots of beginners trying to go higher by increasing volume substantially; this is a huge mistake and if you find yourself doing it, just stop! The right muscles need to be used, but in pop singing that's not common (as it is in opera). The "trick" is not to sing with high volume, IMO, after learning opera type technique.

I'm still not high. This is bad weed.

I’m a female with a low voice. AS SOON as he said “you have testicles” I was just like-“welp...now it’s official,I am a grown man and need to pay my water bill after I get a good paying job and have a family of four with a wife who is secretly having an affair with my boss but I’m sleeping with her best friend but we speak nothing of it to maintain a happy and healthy family...for the kids” ironic how im(now) nonbinary(he/it)and am very much still an old man with a low paying office job, six kids that never call me and an ex wife who calls me for money so she can buy wine for her and her new rich husband whos ten years younger. "FeMaLe" my ass.

Im editing this comment cause it was cringe, have fun finding out what I said

This what the vocal community refers to as "sirens" you start low, and scoop up to high and back down again, mimicking the sound of a siren. It's how we help young boys and sometimes girls struggling with their voice change find their head voice. The head voice is what we switch to as we get higher up so we're not carrying our diaphragm or "chest voice" too high which causes the vocal chords to vibrate too hard and larynx to become horse and permanently damage the voice. It's using the space inside of your mouth to amplify and project your notes :).

That's fantastic. Extremely helpful. Now I can glide up into the fifth octave using that gentle pressure and stay connected, without either pushing or slipping into falsetto. If you could do a video on the orderly next steps and exercises required to turn that slide into actual singing in that range it would be even more fantastic. Thanks so much.

Overtone singing has helped me learn how to sing os much better in a very short amount of time. I'm still learning but I've found it to be a super interesting skill to develop.

Cooool, thanks, I'm a guitarist who needs to sing and this absolutely saved me! Already caught the feeling of it.

When i reach the high note it turns into a whistle

Wow! Thaks for such a clear & concise demonstration of how vocal chords should look & feel on high notes and how to practice safely!

"Testosterone lowered the voices..." No wonder Dimash Kudaibergenov can easily belt G#7, because of missing testicles.

0:24 “you have testicles” me: “uhhh...yeah, about that 😅”

been singing since I was about 10 so roughly 14 yrs. I've had a lot of lessons and what not. But had to teach myself a lot of things and what you are teaching in this video about the vocal chords staying together. Is what I learnt on my own. But you have just explained it so well. So happy that I actually know whats happening and can work on it even more! p.s my voice has dropped rapidly in the past 3 years so this helps out a lot haha

I can sing high note when i'm drunk , coz i don't panic..

Hey man, just wanna let you know that this really help me remove that "fear" of reaching the high notes. Was able to lessen the strain. Thank you so much

2 years later and he's make people laugh and have fun while learning and building confidence, i absolutely love it! 👏👏

I am a 13 year old boy my voice is basically breaking, when I sing the high notes I sound like a sheep.

Imagine being in the car in some random place and people hear you alone in the car just sitting there making this noise. 5:14

I used to be a great singer in elementary school, I hit puberty, now I'm 23 years old and can only sing country. My voice is deep as hell

You are the coach!

Everything true! Even if you trying wide vowels, big sounds, one gotta stop trying to reach and keep the sound stable. That trick to stop singing and start making sounds worked for me some time before!

You really helped me with this!I was always stuck with the C4 this was the complete top of my chest range.When i first watched your video and tried i was pushing and wasn’t going anywhere but one day i was completely relaxed and did this exercise without even knowing and my chest voice was sliding at the top of the 4th octave i was sooo shook.Now it’s still weak but at least it can go to B4.Thannks 🙂

Carl, I'm so grateful that you posted this video. The idea of focusing all the way down to the most elementary event of bringing the vocal cords together to make a tiny little sound with very little air pressure was a game changer for me. I spent some time one evening just lightly bringing the cords together and using just enough air to make a tiny little sound. Then I focused on generating a stable pitch with that tiny little sound. Then I starting sliding the pitch up and down. At low volume and very light pressure, almost no effort is needed to hit ridiculously high pitches. The simple exercise of isolating the cords and the small muscles that control opened my eyes to all the extra muscles that I've been unknowingly recruiting whenever I sing--especially when I approach my first break/bridge/passaggio. Now I'm beginning to understand what vocal teachers mean about needing to drop mass or weight from the voice when transitioning to the upper register. Thanks for helping me to achieve a long-awaited aha moment!

Really good video, i think all guys can relate to this "fear" when your about to sing an high note, every time i'm like "ok the high is comming i have to be ready for it". But even after trying just a little bit of your method I can already see how this will help a lot !

Sometimes under the right conditions, and usually a little after i woke up, if i pushed the right way i could scream like mike patton in a song like malpractice or smaller and smaller, and usually when i wake up my voice is deeper than usual, i never could find that spot later on, idk it is just weird

What is it when your voice is deep and your vocals cut out when you try to go high like the air goes flat

From Japan Thank you for sharing these tips. For the first time I could find the answer to what I'd been struggling with. Thanks to you, I got kinda high notes, though there's still a lot of room for improvment of course. You made me make progress, which I'd wanted for years. I'm pretty sure that you're better than any other vocal coach in Japan.

Thank you. Been try to hit the high note on she will be loved for a well and after just a day using your technique I'm nailing it. Finally someone who can train my deep voice. Thank you so much!!!!

I'm a pianist who's trying to hit G5 for ages to be able to sing Billy Joel's piano man. This video helped a lot. Thanks mate!

Imagine having a deep voice at 11 and lose the way you normally sung because puberty hit you too early and now you're struggling to become a singer. Lol it's nice

Wow. Mind blown! Thanks bro!

I just wanted you to know that after I watched this video yesterday....I started to “squeak” like you said and which I did at every opportunity throughout the day...I played around with it on different vowel sounds...I resumed this morning after my warm up and then started to sing.... I cannot believe the difference in the ease at the way I can sing higher..something Ive been trying to do for years..I first saw you in another video about a year ago saying the same thing but I found it hard to do and abandoned it after a day or two....well I wasn’t going to quit this time and stuck with it...I feel like I’m finally making a breakthrough and although I have increased my range slightly in the last 18 months this is the single most biggest breakthrough and I couldn’t wait to tell you and obviously thank you.

Watching countless videos to finally find someone who knows what he is talking about and being useful

The ad on this vid was saying to not get singing lessons off of youtube

Wow right away I was able to sing higher using this technique. Thank you so much!

This is actually the only youtube video that I have ever learned something from about singing better.

Best video on this. Straight to the point and targeting the problem. Thanks so much!

Thanks a lot bro, great video wither clear understanding, keep it🆙️😊👍🏾👍🏾

Thats so freaking cool bro!!! feels crazy weird but works. Like my vocal chords are turning inside out, like I am going to swallow them haha. Definitely feel a big difference in the neck muscles I am using. Now how do I project that?

You're really good at communicating the idea. Really your fantastic. Thank you so much

Just found this and it actually helped me. Thank you so much! 🙏🏻

So many funny moments in this video! 😂 Also a lot of really great info here. I've learned a lot from you in the past few weeks, keep up the amazing work. Thanks again.

I've been teaching myself to sing for about half a year now. Finding a tutorial that tackles both the muscular and psychological aspect feels like an eureka moment :) thank you! I'm definitely subscribing

Dude Franz, this video is pure gold. Unalloyed. Bravo.

I’m a dramatic mezzo and this helped me sooooo much. I need a good strong B5 and really want C#6 to do Lady MacBeth . Love the crazy ladies

This sorta helps for altos/contraltos as well :) Although still my high notes are either coming out as this big dramatic sound (not suitable for pop singing) or literal squeaks.

I got big balls and a real low voice. Good video

This video blew my mind. I can now think about those folds instead of the reach. I have been doing sounds lately and that has also helped quite a bit. Great video.

I agree with you. It's all about not forcing and not singing with too much weight. I always warm up focused on release. I like to do sirens, baby cries and scales starting from the top and descend. Pentatonic scales also help me to release if I'm ascending. However, I try not to focus too much on singing perfect notes or specific notes when warming up. That gets me to obsess too much about pitch and I try control and manipulate too much. If I am flat and not released enough, I stop for a second, relax and resing the note or sound. One has to reset the voice and coordination because the coordination from the preceding notes transfer to the subsequent notes, hence we shouldn't have too much weight or tension. After a while, it gets easier to sing with one coordination and then mix it up on different notes to vary the dynamics and stylization. It really is about allowing the voice to do its thing without forcing it or straining.

How do I sing the high notes in my full voice? With this I feel like it just strengthens my falsetto and head voice and the mixed/chest connection. But if I want to hit higher notes as in rock songs is belting the only option?

G5 man!!! And you're not even trying! Soooo coool~ I mean that's a Sopranos Range!! 😱 I loose the 'squeeze' from A3......... So ashamed!!

Man, this is exactly what I was looking for, Thanks! I`m so subscribed BTW

i used to be able to hit higher notes but as time went on my voice kept getting deeper and deeper and i lost grasp of being able to hit that high note, this has really helped me achieve being able to sing higher, thank you.

you make more sense than any singing teacher I've ever known. I feel like you speak my language. Thanks!

why did you make a video about sing high, getting around the reach, without panic, and not demonstrate a final product. I get the aspect of a squeaky technique but that's not the end goal. Just curious as to why you wouldn't demonstrate what you would want people to achieve by practicing making sounds.

Great Stuff!!! Thanks Carl!!

This was a lot of help! To hit those higher notes I would have to either engage in vocal fry (which lets me go super high but then I can't do anything Tenor-range or lower without having to disengage my fry) or I would have to sound super breathy, which makes it strained and if I try to go below G3 my voice cracks and I lose the breathiness, but it just sounds bad because I go from head voice to chest voice automatically. By the end of the video I was getting a feel for going high to low the right way, and I was even sounding decent without the breathiness, and circumventing the voice crack entirely when I use my vocal cords the correct way. Thanks again!

very good .a lot of patience and assimilation of the message i got from f#5 to la#5 easy.......thanks .

*please* can you tell me how you light your face? _I like the way how the background looks darker_ 💡💡

You are amazing!! I do a lot of speaking and this is helpful. I know I am a singing inside . 🥰

This is the only thing that's working for me atm. Thnx!

can you make a video of yourself singing an 80s rock song so we can hear how you use that? something like I remember you from skid row maybe? Thanks.

1 year later- Me: *Gets singing ad about a RU-vidr* 😂

Wow this was a useful video. I'm getting vibrato consistently, with the *intention* of getting vibrato (on low notes, because I'm not good yet.) It's cool being able to intentionally achieve good singing, as opposed to just hoping for the best. Thanks Carl! I discovered you through Tristan Parades.

Thank you very much. Vocal stress is real. I just had a brain refresh by watching this video.

Please make a vid on lowering the larynx

Can you do a video on how to sing "wide" with a low voice, like that dude from depeche mode

yes the flat approach is right, think of all the notes on one plane, be above the voice, it's under you, I sing High C's all the time, no shove and push from under, it's on top, support your diaphragm but not lock. Staccato's are a nice approach 13 5 8, and slides, siren slides, yes its a mental concept. I am an Opera singer and have trained a long time under many teachers, but an easy approach is best and you have to sing several times a week , like any athlete practise right

Awesome video!!! Thank you.

When im alone i feel free to sing.. but its not same when i'm stand in front of people..

Oh, my, god this tip is absolutely amazing. Bass here, D2-G4, A4 if it's humid. Falsetto to C5. One day of this brought me up to a F5 Falsetto and belting confidently at A4. I can't tell if my voice lacks elasticity but I find it hard to recover back to my lower register, even after practicing I can only sing back down to a insecure E2.. hmm... Subbing regardless.

Omg, I love you for this!!!

Great! Good explanation. I´ll start experimenting right away!

The moment I smarted making random noises I got it Hahahaha thank you

I went through this in my own voice The best way to describe it Is you have to learn to sing like a girl first Then with power Men are masculine and monotone You have to let masculinity go For a bit So you can be free free In your vocal range Add power to it Add your manhood back in Once you've found the freedom And remember to keep your larynx low That's what makes you a man

where have you been all my life? your teaching is soooo helpful. thank you.

Excellent! I needed that!

I've been practicing this a lot, especially after you mentioned it in previous videos. Is it normal that, while i'm practicing this, my voice wants to jump from low to high or vice versa?

I have a hard time hitting the E note above middle C. Its very weak and doesn't have much tone. What would you suggest? I'm also doing my best not to raise my larynx. Thanks for any help!

that's a hell of a tip I'll keep practicing thanks so much!!

Thanks for the tip man!

Spot on. This is 6 months worth of lessons in a few minutes. Bravo.

3:30 was mindblowing for me, thanks for the realization

Well, this lesson and your video about cord closure was the missing pieces for me. I now can sing higher and without craking my voice. Thank you, sir.

I am mindblown this works so well. Thank you so much!!!

Could you please talk about singing lower? I don't have testicles to help me with that so I'd like to figure another way into this from the master himself :)

You're almost the only vocal coach that makes sense.

I have a deep voice and I'm learning how to do the falsetto and it feels like it's just only one note when i go higher it cuts like there's no sound coming out.

spot on. thanks bro!

People make fron of me how I sing it choir

To sing high note you must use power from your stomach...its simple punch your stomach to support it let out the powerful voice! ...just try

This was so helpful.

Nice alternative approach to a familiar and established technique. Good Vid man!
