I practiced with your both voice essential CDs for 4 months now and its rewarding :). I practice 3 times a week (both full CDs and plus 3 additional vids) after the sessions i head over to my karaoke playlist and sing what i want to!... i may even buy the courses later on. thank you so much, youre very motivational
I was a good singer untill I had a horse accident and it hurts my stomach. I like singing to my horses. I have to learn all over again. I might be too old. 40ish. I've been listening you your videos for about 2 hours. I think I can try again. Thank you. Great information, teaching, and delivery. I like your personality and approach.
I have done all the vocal exercises you taught me from you tube and I can see a little improve in my singing. I'm 16 and from India. Thank you so much Dr Dan God bless you 🙏🇮🇳
Hey! Hii same I am also from India and I am 14 years old and I have dream to sing in Hollywood Industry 🤕🤕🤕🤕🤕🤒🤒🤐🤐🤐 by the way why are you learning singing?
I have had numerous students who were told to lip sync because they couldn't sing in tune. That is Italy. Some went on to win competitions. And all of them sang beautifully in public after studying the techniques. So I am in TOTAL agreement with you! And your analogies and explanations will come in handy.
Everyone can sing! It doesn't matter what others say, if you want to sing just do it. If someone comments stuff like "You suck" or "Quit singing" Just respond with "Thank you" or "You are amazing" everything passes regardless so just do what you love
I love the challenge of trying to sing a difficult song. That's part of the rewards. I believe a good singer is a dime a dozen. But getting to great? Now that's a whole other animal. It's highly unlikely you will get there entirely on your own.
New subscriber here 😊. I've watched your videos so i can understand more about singing, vocal ranges. Thank you for sharing your teachings here on RU-vid. 🙂
I overused my voice and I feel a sharp pain in my voice. I'm steaming my voice, drinking water and trying to get enough sleep. Would you recommend going to the doctor?
Anyone can learn to sing, dance, draw, run, play any instrument--the only thing stopping you is you. And yes, even you, Dr. Dan, can be an Olympic athlete ^_^ What it comes down is to mentality and desire, and I have tried to explain this to so many people. If you want something, you CAN accomplish it. The road may be harder than others, but it can be accomplished if the determination, patience and effort (oh and motivation, of course :) ) are there. And there is no "he shouldn't" or "she shouldn't". What it comes down to is learning proper technique and practice. Many of us shouldn't do a lot of things---until we LEARN how to. You really shouldn't change the oil in your car if you don't know how to, or install a shelf, or cook--unless you know how to safely do so and how to do so properly. And there are tons of places to learn those skills. Singing, art, and any creative effort is the same way. Any physical effort, too. I love this saying: whether you think you can or can't, you are right. It is all in your mind. I once told someone that I could totally be a pilot if I wanted to--and they countered with "well, why don't you." My answer was honest: I don't want to. That's it. My choice is to not pursue that study. If I choose to do it, I will succeed in it eventually and I have no doubt of that. I used to think I sucked at math and numbers--I refused to do anything like Sudoku-- and strategy? No freaking way. Then I sat down and learned it. I blew my own husband away with my progress and accomplishments in learning this. I am re-learning my physical limitations with my doctor and teaching myself how to properly exercise without destroying my heart rate, etc. It is all about learning, practicing, and persistence. Seriously. You are the only thing holding you back. If you have nay-sayers in your ranks, or people who don't support you and your efforts, then you need to filter their words and attitude out and focus on the ones that do support you.
Amazing vid. I just want to sing in the shower better because it's more cathartic that way! I mean, I just want to sing by myself because it feels good. Thanks for providing great motivation :)
My point of view is that people think of singing as being on pitch. If you can't stay on pitch, then, you can't sing. But just because you can't run one mile in 4 minutes doesn't mean you can't run.
I knew I "couldn't" sing by the time I was 5. We went to church 2-3 times a week, singing was a big part of that. I knew that I couldn't *make* my voice do what I wanted it to, and based on people's faces around me, they also heard the horrible sounds I was hearing myself make! I am not tone deaf, so I was *very* aware of making the wrong notes/pitch, but had zero idea of how to do it differently. Everyone in my family can pass as a mediocre singer, but none of them ever tried to sit down and teach me or get me voice lessons no matter how many years I have lamented the fact that I can't sing. Was in youth choir at church, but mostly I sang under my breath or not at all, I just wanted to be around my friends. Whenever I tried singing the alto parts I was "supposed" to sing my throat hurt after just a few lines. Somehow or another, I ended up in a small church many years later as an adult and asked to join the choir. I told the director I couldn't sing, and he didn't believe me, so took me to the choir room and played notes on the piano and had me "match pitch" with each one. Afterwards he declared that I was a tenor, and my biggest problem singing in the past was trying to sing what the other women were singing. I learned just enough from him during practices that I felt okay matching pitch with the tenors next to me, but not enough to create a sound that's actually pleasing to hear, and I can't stay on pitch without hearing the notes next to me. 😬 I will never be a soloist, but I am hoping that with watching these singing videos it will help. Hopefully learning the actual physiology of what's happening while we sing, and with practicing/conditioning, that in time I will feel slightly more confident singing to myself and around other people.

How do I know if I'm tone death because singing is truly my life and everything but everytime someone tells me to repeat a note they have played I never get it right and it's like I'll hear the note but at the same time I don't know what the note sounds like or I'll just imaditly forget it or just don't know what it sounds like I don't know how to explain it really but I will do anything to learn to sing
I don’t completely agree it’s you can have a positive mindset. Its more how the information is. Explained to you can effect your understanding, if it intern ends up confusing you. It can in effect can have an impact on your morale. Which has happened to me many times it’s taken perseverance and questioning to translate what experts like your self are saying into a simple way I can understand what your actually meaning. More importantly when people think they can’t sing it’s not the actual biomechanics it’s more the point of is my Voice tone pleasing to the ear. Which obviously is subjective. Hope that helps Dr Dan
Can anyone sing amazingly though? Is it possible to learn how to sing incredibly like we can hear other amazing people doing? Singing ok is one thing, but singing mind blowingly amazing is another, and I sure with I could do that haha
I wanna be a famous singer and dancer it's my everything my life and I wanna get as big as michael Jackson was if not bigger but how I don't know how to sing but I'll do anything to learn

Wow your videos are amazing . I really enjoy and it's so informational. I'm a 14 year old girl and I'm really frustrated because I've heard my voice sound good yet my voice is very inconsistent. Also I'm very interested in vocal health

Yes, everyone has the ability to sing, but some of us should not be encouraged to do so. William Hung should not be allowed to "She bang She bang." Can he "She bang She bang"? But should he "She bang She bang"? No! My Dad literally will be the first to tell you, if you meet him, that he should not be allowed to sing. He can make a joyful noise, but even he doesn't want to hear it, so he CAN sing (meaning his larynx has the ability to make a sound) but he can't sing well. Like I said, he would not disagree with me
