The Difference
Recently I’ve been looking around in these sites that give tips on how to sing. These people were supposedly professionals, and yeah it was obvious that they knew what they were talking about. But I found it interesting that most of them said basically the same stuff. Why so interesting? Well, they’ve obviously all come from the classic professional singing “school of thought” from all the terms and metaphors they use (imagine an egg at the back of your throat, or a tube around your belly etc etc) heheh. Those are the technical stuff, despite how they explained it. The “basic” stuff you have to get before even thinking of becoming a singer.
And then there’s my grandmother. I doubt she was ever taught those things (in fact if I ask her about them, I imagine she’d give me a puzzled look and laugh). But boy, can she sing. She doesn’t perform, but when it’s quiet and she’s busy in the kitchen or the garden, I sometimes catch her singing, and she can really sing.
There’s a difference between being able to hold a note and really knowing how to sing. So much that when a situation calls for it, someone can say of you that you’re a “singer”. Oddly enough, for all the technical stuff out there that some people pay a lot of money to learn, there are just some people who get these things naturally. Why? I suppose that some people just take to it easier, from exposure or for whatever other reason. My dad told me that singing should be a natural thing, and I guess for some people, the more they concern themselves with the “technical” stuff, the more they forget about all the things that should be natural to them in terms of singing. But I’m not a good singer, just some things I’ve observed I guess.

Haha. Well, there’s really a difference between having a good voice, and knowing how to sing.
It’s obvious when someone knows how to make good use of his/her voice. It’s beyond only having a pretty voice
XD
Sorry, I think I’m going around in circles.

A lot of young people, especially if they are fans of hip-hop music, think the best car speakers are the ones with the biggest subsonic boom.
