I so second your sentiment!! I am experiencing a somewhat low, raspy voice and having just found this channel I am touched at the wealth of knowledge delivered in such an effective and down to earth, endearing way.
Mark, my name is Tommy Staples. I have been doing your voice training for about two weeks now. I love you, dude. I can see the improvement in my voice already. Thank you, sir.
Hey Mark, I really appreciate your humanity and keeping it real. If everyone edits out their mistakes it can feel.impossible for learners to attain that level of flawlessness. Thanks for being humble enough to include them! 😀
This guy can teach me how to actually sing, half-way decent! His vocal exercises are so easy to follow even to people whose first language is not English. Thank you so much!!
What a relief you only have one color paisley shirt, but if more are coming out of closet. Other vocalists FYI - The purple paisley is our DBDBDBDBDB fav. That is- as long as rascally Mark doesn’t try to trick us.
Superb exercise , but burst out laughing when your inner devil appeared ,lol ,,.... thank you mark , I have a grin on my face and Improvings both speeds and range .... all good 👍🏻
Anytime Mark But truth be told you bailed me out when I came to you on Thatcher st. for lessons. My voice was in the crapper with some serious voice issues! Went on to many years of fronting a successful 3 piece band traveling all over the country! Will always be greatfull! Blessings!
Thank you kind sir! Very cool exercise. I now use it in all of my warm ups and usually throughout the day at opportune times. You my friend are awesome! 🗣🎤
I had this deep back voice problem while singing and with this daily exercise, I have been able to tremendously overcome the same and credit goes to revered Mr. Baxter without whose guidance, experience and support it has not been possible. So hats off to him for all times. Thanks!
Of course the fast part was more challenging, but I kind of got there. As I've mentioned in other comments, your notes on screen are really helpful, even if one or two are obvious, they are great reminders. Wonderful lesson. Many many thanks once again.
LOL, had to pause to laugh, my golden retriever just walked up and gave me a look of disbelief. Too funny. This is a fun one though! (If 'Maverick' doesn't like some of the vocalise, he'll howl. If he likes a song, he'll fall asleep or rest his head on my knee.)
This really helps me feel comfortable with changing registers. I would always try to sing in the exact key which would end up hurting my throat. Amazing class!
This year on Thanksgiving I am grateful for your online and in person lessons. This lesson is great way to start the day before the food--and I'll keep my eye out for the laughing guy. Thanks Mark.
you are great!i admire your passion in helping people like me who wants to learn the proper way of singing from how to enhance the vocal chords without irritating of to the breathing techniques and more.because of you my voice range is excelling.you are not just a good singer but also a person with a good heart.your lesson are amazing i have a lot of fun and at the same time learning.you are the best voice lesson vlogger ever existed!😘
Your videos stand out from anything I have found and I think this is just what I need after vocal fold surgery to remove nodules six months ago. My surgeon tells me one of my vocal folds is "stiffer" than the other. My sound production is okay in the morning however, gets fatigued very quickly and takes on a strained quality by afternoon and that is just normal talking. You're very real with no pretences. Thank you!
The fatigue you experience is due to neighboring muscles overcompensating for the stiffer fold. When you vocalize stay focused on creating as much independence as possible. Use comfort rather than sound as your guide. Yes - you want a great sound - but if you don't establish ease first your voice will tire too quickly. Flexibility is your vocal superpower!
@@voicelessondotcom I was starting to feel very down about the future of my voice but you have given me renewed optimism. I only wish I had discovered you sooner. Thank you once again.
Hey Mark! Out of all the lessons I've had with you I don't remember this One! Will have to check all my recordings. This one is harder to play than Sing! Very helpful exercise and Thank you for sending this and all your Lessons! Your the best!
This is great fun and satisfying to see differences (in a good way) each day. Thank you for the explanations as to "why" you have us doing different techniques.
@@davecharrier6632 It's like raising the guitar or saxophone to play a high note - better to develop muscle independence regarding pitch so we singers can show off when performing just like guitar and sax players do!
Thank you very,very much! I'm so glad to find your amazing instructions,they are the best ever in my case.I've been singing all my life,since I remember myself.And once it happened,I damaged my voice and couldn't find the way to improve the situation and restore ability to sing again freely as it suppose to be,naturally.Doing your exercises I can feel those problem places in my vocal chords,where I have to work to improve them.Thank you again!
Dear Sir, you have helped me beyond tremendously in correcting my VOICE as I am daily practicing on your caliber presentation and would not stop as anybody else doing the same. May god bless you for everything you asked from the divine......Kulwant Chandel Toronto Canada
Thanks sooooo much! Loved this class..... and all your classes! I'm near my 70's and all this training keeps my voice in shape! Greetings from Aguascalientes, México.
I am a Barbershop singer from England ,enjoyed your d,bds ,started to get tongue tied a little on the faster d,bds,but nice to see you got a little tied up to, gave me confidence to go on.We are more use to sustaining notes in barbershop,so this is a good way to really get that tongue moving thanks .Mike H.
I love Mark and his methods of instructing. Was I hallucinating or was there a reddish devil on his shoulder towards the end. It broke my concentration and started laughing.
This is great laugher when I gradually increase speed so change gears with this exercise I start to blunder. My cats love this one they say Miaa--aaa-uuuu and give ten paws.
hmmm this is actually very good. I like it. I will say I was so light I started actually drooling a bit lmfao. It happened on the faster section, but I have also been following a lot of exercises and the volume level lesson you put out actually helped a lot because of the insistence on relaxation in the video. So it actually taught me to relax. It made this lesson a lot easier to perform. I switched between registers when I was doing it and to make sure I was also working on my higher notes and lower and switching registers. My vocal range has gotten a lot better too. Its a C2 to an A#5 (the A#5 came as a result of wanting to sing Micro Cuts by Muse and I over shot the note a bit, its actually a G#5/Ab5). Now I am working on the whistle register people seem to want to know how to do. My highest note I got in that register was an F9 which I thought was pretty amazing. I remember when I got to finally hit an F#5 and I was really happy, like all things in life, you will always only get better if you have a willingness to learn and not give up. I hit those notes as a man who is 41, I hope that gives some people encouragement.
Good morning Mr. Baxter, first of all I would like to thank you for the wonderful vocal exercises and a lot of vocal explanation how to sing better, and a lot more😊🍻, I just have a few questions for you, I work the graveyard shift from 11 pm to 7 am, I just want to ask what is the best time for me to vocalize? and one more Mr Baxter, can you please give me the best exercises in holding notes and to increase my vocal range? I hope you can help on this matte becauae singing is my passion. Thank you and I'm looking to hear from you soon😊. Take care and thanks again😊
The best time for you to vocalize would be just before you head into work. Do this to develop your air management for holding long notes: czcams.com/video/U8H6vgPFCCE/video.html And this to expand your range: czcams.com/video/vNxPhIWrom8/video.html
Thank you soooo much Mr. Baxter👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽, I will definitely check the link you've provided☺️, and yes from now on, I'll vocalize in the late afternoons. You're awesome👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Thank you. 😀 What would we do without you!
another wonderful exercise from the world's greatest vocal coach! God bless you Mr. Mark Baxter!
Might be my favorite video. That feeling when you can maintain a “ring” throughout the exercise, especially on the way down? Priceless.
Love this one!
Glad to help!
This guy can teach me how to actually sing, half-way decent! His vocal exercises are so easy to follow even to people whose first language is not English. Thank you so much!!
I'm happy to help!
The text was making me laugh I had to stop haha😂 great lesson again! Really grateful 💜
For all those that love this exercise and can’t remember the name. Look for the paisley shirt. The hum for so many seconds and this one are my fav.
What a relief you only have one color paisley shirt, but if more are coming out of closet. Other vocalists FYI - The purple paisley is our DBDBDBDBDB fav. That is- as long as rascally Mark doesn’t try to trick us.
Superb exercise , but burst out laughing when your inner devil appeared ,lol ,,.... thank you mark , I have a grin on my face and Improvings both speeds and range .... all good 👍🏻

Excellent! A new one to add to my routine!
Pleasantly dynamic, as though one were right there with you!

I had to keep myself from turning it into....Yabba dabba doooo! Hahahaha. Thank you for another amaze-balls exercise!
Hahaha - yes that's tempting!
LOL, had to pause to laugh, my golden retriever just walked up and gave me a look of disbelief. Too funny. This is a fun one though! (If 'Maverick' doesn't like some of the vocalise, he'll howl. If he likes a song, he'll fall asleep or rest his head on my knee.)
Lol
My bird thought I was crazy
my dogs name is BeeBee... very confused looks ;)
This really helps me feel comfortable with changing registers. I would always try to sing in the exact key which would end up hurting my throat. Amazing class!
Glad to help!
That is so useful. Your explanations are clear and concise. Thank you for the tips on relaxation
Glad to help Shubha. Enjoy!

Glad you're putting the videos to good use!
@@voicelessondotcom Why the concern of raising eyebrows? Tension? (Hard habit to break!) Thanks
@@davecharrier6632 It's like raising the guitar or saxophone to play a high note - better to develop muscle independence regarding pitch so we singers can show off when performing just like guitar and sax players do!
Wow another EPIC session

Brilliant. 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

Crazy helpful. Crazy helpful. Shaking my head in amazement. Hey, that's why they call it an amazing exercis! That wasn't even on purpose!
Glad it helped! Glad it helped!
thanks for the laughs, I mean the great exercise ~😅 yeah I do slow the speed down on these types of lessons.
You're very welcome!
Gracias maestro
Da nada!
Great tip , speed this up to 1.5 or 1.25
So much easier to practice on your other exercises first. Then DB fast works. If done first full control out the window. Thank you. Gonna back to dbs
Nice exercise! I feel an excess burst of air when I do this, though.
Exactly why you want to work with this! Reducing your air pressure is a great diaphragm exercise.
Me at the end of this :" Yabadabadubidu
Of course! :)
I had to go my best Dean Martin to get through those fast DBDBDB…. Lol
Nothing like a little Rat Pack influence to make an exercise flow!
