“How to sing like Bruce Dickinson”
Lesson 1: be Bruce Dickinson
That concludes our lessons
lots of earwax in this one.
Can I legally change my name to Bruce Dickinson and then will I be able to sing like him?!
check raphael mendes channel out !
i would like to see Bruce Dickinson watching this video where his way of singing and his techniques are analyzed.
tried to sing "Run to the Hills" in the car the other day ... it's really hard!
I normally try singing along to the Piece of Mind album. I can just about manage it but a few songs in my whole face hurts!
I HEARD YOU! STFU!! PAINFUL
We all have!
I don't know how many of you caught the comment left here before it was marked as spam and deleted, but Mr. "Superior Singing" or his people, keep spamming my channel with comments trying to direct people to his vocal course. AVOID this guy like the plague. Bullshit crap.
+Kevin Richards Rock the Stage NYC yeah , why are they/he doing that?

Yes you can develop a higher mix over time as your voice becomes stronger. I have some students that can "belt mix" to C#5 but average is around the B4-C5 if you work really hard at it.
Thanks, gotta love Jon Oliva, he could belt out the tunes in his day.
I didn't always have a loud voice - quite the opposite. I was shy and very quiet person until my 20's when I started singing in bands. I HAD to develop a louder voice and bigger personality to talk to a crowd.
"Loudness" is both perceived and actual. Something can sound loud but not actually be loud. Volume is just more air through the voice.
I'va always had a somewhat loud voice, however it got even stronger when I began sing in bands and taking vocal-lessons in my 20's. And nowadays I work as a teacher (teaching music to bored teens) and have developed an even louder and stronger voice... ;-)
and i wish Bruce himself recorded some videos explaining his techniques. That would be cool.
Nice job Dude! If i were in US i would request one class.
Cricothyoid, arytenoid muscles around the vocal folds and his core muscles around his waistline.
To develop them you need a system of exercises that will target those muscles specifically and over time they become stronger.
I am also a low baritone - my reason for this video was to show that even very low voiced male voices can sing very high notes like tenors.
most of that was spot on, impressive
Bruce is NOT training with SLS teachers - I can tell you that firsthand. In fact he doesn't train with anyone at all. He is simply using the training he had many years ago to maintain his voice. He has learned over the years how to sing the older Maiden stuff differently than he did in the 80's. He tried using his "studio voice" on stage and it didn't work. By the time they got to "Powerslave" he had figured out how to sing with them live with a "stage voice" which is thinner but still full.
Dave Murray teach you how to sing like Bruce hahahah, nice video.
Not funny...
Dave actually does vocalise a lot of his notes when soloing - hahaha Steva and Adrain both good singers anyway.
One of the best demonstrations of connected head voice I've seen done acapella. This is a very basic hallmark of a skilled teacher of voice. They can actually show you via their own singing voice, that the results you are looking for, are possible to achieve! Kevin has that slam dunk!
The Big Plus with Kevin Richards is, he holds your attention with great teaching skills, his teaching style is very concise, yet relaxed, second nature. Kevin consistently delivers (in his instruction/guidance) valuable "gems" of insight in the quest to achieve exceptional singing! Thanks Kevin!
Sure he does. You are thinking they are two separate things; they are not. A "belt" is essentially a mixed note. You are mixing chest & head resonance to create a very full higher note outside of pure chest voice. Check out my demo of "Children of the Damned" where I am belting a high mix.
Kiske and Halford are not "heavy mass" belters like Dickinson. Both of them bridged early - which is why both of them have trouble in their belt or call ranges today.
Yes we are - we are talking both voice function (cord closure) and resonance. They go together. Chest resonance only goes so high in the vocal tract until it HAS to ascend into the mouth and then head. You cannot stop it - it is acoustical science.
The thicker you make the cords and the lower you keep the resonance space the chestier your lower head resonance sounds. That is what you are doing. It "feels" like chest voice but based on science you're in lower head resonance.
U mean to say, u use head register, but make it sound more chesty?
do a video about ronnie james dio.
he certainly never lost his voice
Man, you are a fantastic singer! Thanks for putting up this video, really helpful
Thanks for the lesson.
Very useful thanks! U have a great voice too!
Thank you brother!
Awesome man, thanks so much for this! I can't sing that high yet, but practicing a few steps lower (I'm a bass-lowerbaritone range) has given me an idea on how to reach higher notes. Looking forward to more of your stuff!
thanks i been working on your lesson for headvoice..
it also referred to as "ping" in some music circles but the common term is twang as it's considered an official vocal mode. In my private lessons I refer to it as "cut" or "bite".
One is NEVER too old. SLS is a great head start in certain respects. I wouldn't say you were "misled" by SLS, it perhaps just wasn't the sound or approach that's best for you.
Appoggio singing seeks to eliminate placements by allowing "natural placement" of the sound by thinking of the voice as "one register" - but I do find thinking of certain placements helps beginner singers target their resonances correctly.
so since august of last year ive gone from a d4- f5 on the piano scale and my lowest note is around f2 and i can sing that all in ''chest" voice the technique i use is apoggio and i dont even have a voice techer. when i use this i have no tension at all and it feels so good to sing,
You're a very skilled singer & teacher! Your voice is awesome :)))
pretty good man
Look at my main channel page and start with the "Mixed Voice" videos especially the one "Classical vs Speech Level Singing" as that explains a lot about open throat technique.
If trained properly you will not lose your voice with age, in fact it will get stronger just like Bruce Dickinson's has
This is good, but in F major vs G major of the original, some of these details feel different, to me anyway. Also Wonder if high larynx is normal and ok on this?
I get these posts every now and then from people that have just been too lazy to learn how to sing correctly so they've been stuck in their chest voice they're whole lives. So they just chalk it up to "I guess you're born with it". Its part ignorance and laziness.
I understand that with technique and exercise one can improve his/her voice. But it is a matter of fact that one is born with a certain "range of notes", which still can be improved but to a certain limit. That's why they call them tenors or sopranos, etc... The assumption that everyone could sing along Dickinson is therefore false.
Hi Kevin. You really are a vocal pedagogy master. I have studied SPL and some Bel Canto for over 7 years. Your videos really are on the money and some of the best available. Thanks!
Thank you for your kind words and watching the videos.
Oh okay thanks for replying :) My belts go to G#4/A4 in chest but then I have to mix but I have only have been singing a year do you think my passiaggio could become higher over time if I keep practicing?
I'm glad he mentioned Michael sweet, he's my favorite singer right now. He's a good guitar player too, however back to the point of the video I'm very glad u have posted this video, I should have watched it sooner to save me A LOT of trouble
Doesn't Bruce just have a natural gift to be able to sing like that? I've read biographies and watched documentaries and don't ever recall him taking any vocal lessons when he was young.
you don't need to take vocal lessons to learn this stuff just look at almost all of the old rock singers they learned all of this stuff them selves
My question would be is: what does your lower voice sound like? is it balanced? is it strong and resonant? Too many singers are too concentrated with singing high notes when they have very under developed lower and middle ranges.
My next video is going to be on why singers fail to develop high notes effectively... watch for it.
I've been dying to learn this since I first heard Iron Maiden years back.
It is because Bruce has a high male voice - higher than most metal singers (higher than Dio and Halford speaking voices) so his high notes still sound like his chest voice.
Lower voice males like me need to add more "cry" or pharyngeal sound to the notes to just sing them. It is just down to anatomy and the size of our vocal cords. Bruce's are longer (higher) and mine are shorter (lower).
In my opinion that is totally not true. There are a lot of high-baritone singers, including B.Dickinson, who can sing thick highs with technique. Of course B.Dickinson is not the best example for this as his technique is not flawless, he sings rather instinctive. So no, B.Dickinson is not a high voice person. But that is singing all about. To make the "cry"-like tone disappear from the highs you have to learn better technique, use more head voice in the mix voice. This is not the privilege of tenors. Singing is all about learning and practicing how to make your tone sound powered but float easily in any height of your range. To eliminate all the struggling/suffering-like tones. Anyway, your video is good, and I think you have a good voice. But hey, one can always learn more to be better. If there is cry-like/suffering-like tone in ones highs, that IS BECAUSE OF BAD TECHNIQUE. That's the truth.
First time I've ever heard Halford described as any kind of a baritone. Which of course isn't true--his speaking voice is basically just as high as Bruce's. Dio's too. Some guys just have thicker vocal cords than others.
@@Helion24 Um, no. Dickinson is a tenor - 100% pure tenor with a tenor speaking voice.
@@jayrusnak Halford is a high baritone/low tenor. Dio was a pure tenor. Dickinson is a tenor, almost a counter tenor similar to Dee Snider.
Nice!!
How high do you go in pure chest without mix? And how long did it take?
Most lose their voices because they simply get lazy - it's the headliner syndrome. They'll pay to see me not matter what shape I'm in, how I sing etc. Geoff Tate was a prime example of that. Just didn't give a shit anymore.
Halford is the same - resting on his success, Halford's last great tour vocally was Painkiller.
the bands you cite don't sing anywhere near as high nor write vocal melodies in the higher keys of metal or hard rock bands. The vocals are keyed progressively higher in hard rock/metal bands.
The singers from those bands are also singing at the end of their ranges and belting so they sound a bit fuller. Metal singers tend to sing higher and so need to lighten the load a little to be able to blend into the extreme high ranges over D5.
Kevin id love to see you do Number Of The Beast, Id love to cover that song,but that scream he belts out at the beginning of the song is tricky!
Its an A5 and within your range Julie. Even Bruce never quite did it that way ever again. He was pissed off when he did it because because the producer kept making him do it over and over.
Kevin Richards RPM Vocal Studio it's even an A6
well there's not really a "belting muscle" its a combination of breath support, relaxed throat and strong stabilizing muscles around the larynx.
hahahah perfect response Kevin.
Hi Kevin, I'm big fan of our vids, I've discovered that I can belt and do vibrato very good, however i have trouble when it comes to knowing the notes Bruce hits, just like you broke down that chorus from Run to the Hills. I'd like to identify the notes I need to hit, for example now I'm struggling to brake down the notes for Brave New World. Do you have the any help for this, or are there any vocal tabs to know exactly the notes i need to use on their songs? please help
Hi. I'm 16, and looking to learn how to get a sound very similar to this, and like Stu Block's scream-like vocals in Iced Earth. Is there a possibility to contact you personally for prices on lesson and such, so I don't need to really push to try and attempt these notes?
You are a good singer ;-)
Not sure why you dont do more "how to sing like.." videos like this?You got a great voice and sound ALOT like Bruce when you sing in his style.
I haven't done more because there's another coach who has done a lot of them and doesn't explain how the person actually sings. They use the videos to show how great they can sing - but they never teach you anything.
Rock the Stage NYC too funny bro...if i had a singing course that im selling i sure wouldnt give any gamebreaking tips in "how to" videos...and im preety sure u are reffering to Ken Tamplin...
Dont do this pls. It just makes me respect you a bit less and you are indeed a good singer. I wish vocal coaches would start market themselves for the good that they do and not the badies that others do.
To ease the tension, ill just say thanks for everything you are doing, and keep on doing the good work
Rock the Stage NYC If you are referring to Ken, his CZcams channel is merely a way to advertise his website/courses. No one would buy his dvds/register for courses if he just released them as free CZcams content. With just CZcams he'd have barely enough money to run an academy and pay the bills. And he does have quite a few helpful videos, but they aren't any of his how to sing videos. He recently released one on glottal compression, where he scratches the surface and shows you what to expect from his course.
Hey Kevin, do you know what those "anchoring muscles" are called by any chance? I read online everywhere that no muscles are supposed to be used at all but I hear from you that the "anchoring muscles" are important and my vocal instructor says that some muscles should be used very slightly to stabilize the larynx but none else.
maybe belting is the wrong term, but he uses pure chest voice. Singers with a lower chest voice-range (like you) have to blend to head voice and it can sound nearly as chest voice. But Dickinson (and me too) can sing higher with chest voice, maybe high c or d or even e(Tobias Sammet). If i'm in a good shape, I can reach the high d with pure chest voice(And even higher with blended head voice) Maybe I'll do a demonstration video.
Very interesting conversation by the way :)
You forgot Michael Kiske in the list of metal singers that still sound the same.
That's because he doesn't. He has lost some power in his upper range.
Rock the Stage NYC
He hasn't lost any. There's only one Bruce, but there's still many metal singers that have lost only a little range with age. Unisonic plays in E standard, and Kiske doesn't use just his low register.
AgentFour Perhaps I am thinking of Kai Hansen. I get them confused.
Kiske is the one that got bald and sings in Avantasia usually live.
Marcelo Bassalo he got bald? No. He shaves his head on purpose.
When I do that high note you do at the end it sounds clear and feel somewhat comfortably but doesn't quite feel like my full head voice yet, does that my mixed register is different or am i doing it wrong?
Dio didn't warm up either but he always sang within his comfort zone. Dio's voice needed little prep but his lack of maintenance started to show in the 90's. Tyler nearly destroyed his voice in the 70's and early 80's but he went to a great vocal coach in Boston and one in NYC and saved his voice. He was never the greatest live singer anyway but he's far better now than in 1984 or even 1994.
Dio's warm up consisted of a joint and a beer.
Hi Kevin, i have a question but requies you to look on my channel at my video " Whistle Register Question" i dont think its whistle register but its definitely not my original falsetto or my original head voice from the past few years, and also i cannot get it on command, some days i can go really high and loud and others it feels stuck within my throat, hard to explain but its really easy when i get it, havent had it a gig yet as afetr singing normally this voice tends just tighten up ?? help
I have a quick question. You mentioned the "strong anchoring musculature" that Bruce has developed over his career. What are those muscles called and how would you work out those muscles to develop and strengthen them?
So, "twang" is the nasal resonance which classical voice coaches referring?
Possibly but there's no way to know. Basic breath support and appoggio are slightly different things. Yes playing the trumpet would have given him an advantage in using good support BUT that doesn't explain his excellent use of dark tone and open throat technique - that has to be practiced.
For most Rock & Metal musicians, its not "cool" to admit you've had vocal lessons, it makes you seem less "raw". But most of them have had lessons somewhere in their careers.
Believe it or not I used to be able to sing like Bruce and Rob Halford. I was unfortunately not trained so I damaged my vocal cords. If I try to sing like I did years ago it hurts and I start to cough like heck.
Thanks anyway for all the videos! They are very informative.
I guess it is a difficult sound to duplicate. Alice Cooper's snarl mixed with Ozzy's clean notes mixed with whatever Jon Oliva is/was.
Is his vocal tone just naturally raspy, or was that from all the cigarettes?
01:20 it´s that beacause normal changes in voice with age or comes with damage to the vocal chords? at wich age do you think those changes start ?
Oh okay but I meant can my actual chest voice become higher too? My mix is fine just a bit heady at times gotta work on that constantly I guess..but I can reach G5 easily I've worked on my mix since 2011. My chest voice is my main concern..
After seeing your videos and reading the comments I did come to re discover and appreciate even more some things about singing and about me and about other singers and people who know or even are very curious and want instruction about how singinging works and lives inside certain individuals. Everyone has a voice to sing and can learn to sing and very well and properly trained . Also not everyone will sound good to anyone but themselves even with all of the knowledge and ability they possess within the craft . If my last statement were false then every vocal teacher with just a pinch of vocal training enough to tell others what they lack vocally and so be admired would be the frontman/woman of a band making money and achieve superstardom. Not least of all you. One thing that is essential , that one needs to have can only be what the Pied Piper of Hamelin had . What the Sirens had to lure men and ships hypnotically to their doom. Basically to their audience they sounded damn good. Sounding damn good and knowing exactly how to sound damn good are things few have both of. Let that sink in...
Kevin i tried to BUY your CD (Breaking the Chains) but sadly CD version was out of stock and only Digital Version was there :( I'm from India and i really want the CD version even though it's the same :D If you see this cOMMENT please can you tell me when the CD version will be on stock again. I'm gonna need to sing on November because me and my cousin are going to Join our College Beat Contest. We are going to cover Pantera-Cemetery Gates and i need some Vocal class so i can sing it with ease.
It would all depend on your level of singing right now. Ken's program has beginner, intermediate and advanced level? Robert's kind of jumps right into more intermediate level techniques. It's also down to how much information you want - if you're a technique junky than Robert's is for you - if not then Ken's is more your speed.
Of course I would recommend my own over both - not only in simplicity, variety but also price. Ken/Robert are around $200 mine is $75.
Hi Kevin one of my favorite singers is Geddy Lee of RUSH he started out as a falsetto, by 1980 around Moving Pictures and Signals albums it changed. What type of singer is he from 1980 till today? I don't sing but I dig Geddys voice
+Brian young - a tenor as he's always been with age he's just gotten older
Not falsetto. Damn, that would be horrendous to listen to! I actually thought he was a woman first time I heard him but when you get used to it he has an awesome voice.
Hey man. Any chance we can get a singing like Jon Oliva tutorial?! That'd be really cool...
I have a question. I am baritone and I love power metal and I want to reach these high notes as this awesome singers for example Alessandro Conti who have a very big range were he can hit low notes and super high notes. It is posible to expand my vocal range to that level or that type of things can only be reach by tenors. Thanks
Oh, that just gave me a realization. There's pitch and there's resonance. I guess if you have a lot of resonance your voice will sound deeper/fuller that it otherwise would at the same pitch.
It's an awesome demonstration and I couldn't believe it at first that i hv figured out the technique. But one thing is happening ...after doing this exercise for 10 or 15 mins my throat is getting a little itchy. This is my common problem even if I'm not trying to reach such high notes but staying in my chest voice region but singing loud. Can u suggest me something.
I have a question , What advice would you give to me to achieve a high note (C5-G5) with such quality that for example Jeff Buckley had? Thanks
Lou probably sought some type of training once Foreigner hit their stride and were headlining long tours; without a clear plan to maintain your voice, that kind of use will take its toll. Lou probably felt his voice wasn't holding up night after night so he sought some instruction on keeping it strong night after night.
His sound and ability were already there - he just didn't know how to keep it going night after night for months on end living out of a suitcase.
Hi dude first of all thank you much :) being tenor is enough to sing like this ? Or we need to have a special voice ?
ok, can someone please explain to me what head and chest voice is? How do i know what one im doing? what does george corpsegrinder do?
forget the terms chest voice and head voice - they'll just confuse you even more. You have to think of the voice as one continuous voice - one uninterrupted sound.
I am using head voice with a lot of support and cord compression to make it sound like chest voice. It takes a lot of work to get this sound being a low baritone. I wanted to show it can be done if you work at it.
I guess I just grew up where everyone referred to the country music vocal mode as a "country twang". I didn't know it was an official term. Thanks for the reply. You're a kick-ass singer btw.
I either have a semi-high belt or straight fry that sounds high. How do i get it clean? Like the "Yeeaaahh" in Number of the Beast. I can hit that and sustain it but its essentially straight fry. How do i get more voice in it?
The E5 "yeah" in Number of the Beats is a scream and was only gotten after the producer made him do it multiple times
I got a question, is it the right technique when I dont feel much tension in my vocal cords? Not my headvoice though, i find a spot where its not heavy at all but I somehow get the note, only works when i really sing loud.
There is tension and there is compression - they are two different things. Tension = strain or a choking sensation.
Compression = pressurized or stable
Kevin Richards RPM Vocal Studio Thank you very much
I can hit high notes like those sang in Run to the hills , the trooper, the number of the beast, or whatever... but my technique is quite weak. is every person (who is able to hit these high notes) able to learn the correct technique in order to sing like Bruce Dickinson, Michael Kiske, Dio and so on ? or should it be ''in your blood'' ?
Thanks.. All the best, Marc
Mr, Please do make a video tutorial On How To Sing Like Philip BAILEY Of Earth wind and fire please!! :'( I Want his range so badly...
Again you confusing sound with science. Bruce can make his lower head voice sound like belty chest voice but the resonance frequencies are tuned in head. It is physically impossible to sing a High D in throat resonance. The physiology within the vocal tract does not allow it.
You can achieve a "chest like" or a "heady" sound based on mass onsets and throat shaping, but the formant is still in head resonance. You do each variation in your song but they are both technically still head resonance.
I'm talking about Priest. the "Fight" material was less challenging than the Priest catalog. I saw the first "Fight" tour in '93-'94 and Halford was on fire and his tours with "Halford" were good too but once he got back on Priest he just gave up as a live vocalist.
Would you consider a high C5 sung with a operatic technique mixed voice? I've heard people say it is and other says it's a 'covered chest voice'
My theory is it's mixed... But both chest and head are at 100% to get every resonance available. To get true Chiaroscuro.
Correct - its a mix. Mostly mouth resonance but there is some mixing of nasal resonance in it as well.
it's weird but, I am a male with maybe a baritone vocal range but I can sing like the female singer from therion to quite a degree. If you check out "Rise of Sodom and Gomorrah" and Compare it with "Riders on the Storm" by the Doors you might see what I mean. How can I improve on these levels? (I kinda am learning to sing bass like the late Peter Steele of Type-O Negative (Christian Woman). Can you teach me something on that?
i think my mix register have more head voice then chest voice and i cannot sing loud is that normal
can you guve me some advices?
That's completly true, I heard him in 2008 and 2009 on two shows in Bogota, the capital city of Colombia, which is on an altitude of 2600 meters, you can't even walk... so his technique make him to sing in a very high notes without that heaviness from the eighties.
I'm currently 13 and practicing on my vocals so when I become older I might stand a chance of forming a decent metal band! What would you recommend I do first? I haven't any ideas on where to start. What songs by Iron Maiden would you suggest?
My voice is around the same pitch as yours I suppose. (Near enough really)
Are there any other videos by you that can possibly answer my questions? Or...?
Stay away from Iron Maiden - unless you want to start with the first 2 albums with Paul Dianno as the vocals are a bit easier.
At 13 you have A LOT of time to train and practice, I would start with some books on voice like Mark Baxters "Rock n Roll Singers Survival Guide" as its an easy read without any technical stuff. It has a lot of great information on the voice and how it works.
Okay! I can only sing a couple of newer Maiden songs. Probably because they're easy on the vocal chords! So Iron Maiden and Killers? Sounds fair enough.
Cheers, I'll keep this in mind. :D
@@GhoulieTunes soooo hows your voice progress now?
I sang this without a pitch reference. I'm only a half step lower than the recording. Bruce never really sang with full on head voice - even in 1982 - it was always a mixed sound. Having a high speaking voice Bruce is able to mix is resonance up very high to where his head resonance sounds full and just like his lower notes. BUT its an auditory illusion - he is still in head resonance but is using a thicker phonation at the vocal cords.
This comment literally just triggered a EUREKA moment for me. I was trying to sing along with you, and I just couldn't get the high notes without thinning out and sounding really wimpy. I even read about vowel shapes and tried to change them to be more resonant with some success. But it wasn't until I read this comment that I thought to actually just focus literally on the sensation of the vibration and try to find out where it 'tingles' the most. My felt my upper notes disappear into my throat!!! Then I tried to see what I could do to place those mixed notes so the vibrating sensation was in the very top top of my open throat and my nose, and OILA!!!! I feel a world's difference, and like I just went over a hurdle. Thank you, sir. Thank you.
I heard that he was a trained singer ....there is no way that someone can just naturally belt that way and feel there body enough to just let it happen . Geoff tate also ruined his voice by smoking, that's the worse you can do to your voice as a singer. What surprises me more is how he recorded a whole record with the beginnings of throat cancer without hurting his voice and he wasnt aware of it until he caught up with it on google . I am glad that he got it early so he didnt need to have extensive surgery on his throat .
Oh great ok
You make sound so much more easily than I do, especially in that higher belt range. I am jealous. I can get in there, but not like that.
hi dude,, new subscriber, you've probably (and I'm going to check) already done something on this before, but I consider myself to have a naturally "deep" voice, although I love (thinking) that I can sing Halford-esque and Dickinson-esque ranges. I've grown up in the 80's of metal (My first record was Poison's 'open up and say ahhh...' when I was 7 years old, so basically I'm a totally born metalhead... who can appreciate ALL styles of musi exept new-age pop and new-age country...
anyway, I'm starting to record my own music and am after ANY advice what-so-ever on voacals, as I've been a drummer for many years and am finally branching out into the unkown lands of (being able to sing so it doesn't just sound good to me) singing and song writing... I'm a complete novice whan it comes to singing for someone else and would be completely appreciative of any advice you could give... this particular viseo has made me think you know the style I'm talking about, 70's,80',s and to a lesser degree, 90's, metal...
regardless of my "dilemma", great vid man, got me subscribed straight up...
my aim is to write songs in (if this doen't sound too weird) a dark blue hue... it may seem weird but I actually visualise songs (which may be part of why I cant stand modern pop and country - vomit is more appealing to me than that shit)... but I like a dark blue style of music, like metallica's ride the lightning and ...and justice for all, or iron maiden's... welll anything iron madien... or guns n roses' use your illusions... I know they all seem different, but for some reason they all have that dark blue hue.. maybe you can shed some light on why they all appeal to me or something
In that interview he said that he had no problems with singing cause he knew "how to breathe" since he had played trumpet when he was young. Anyway, I noticed that there is barely any change in the color of his voice when he sings over passaggio. Did he use technique similar to what Franco Tenelli (here on CZcams) calls "appoggio"?
I did not block your legitimate question about natural voice and head voice. I answered it. Ask your questions under ONE video or private message me. Do it on multiple videos and you will be blocked.
How about Eric Adams from manowar - he still got the power and beautifull tone.. when i compare him to bruce, bruce belts higher (up to d5 live) but it sounds like he is struggling a lot. Eric did belt out his high C on the farvell tour like it was the easyest thing in the world, and he still screams up to about g5 for the time beeing...
Eric is in an incredible shape
What is the intro song to this video?
just a piece of music I created in Garageband.
Why do you call C5 "high C", rather than C6?
For male voices "High C" is C5, for female voices "High C" is C6.
Which doesn't seem fair, since I feel like it must be more difficult for chicks to hit a C6 in a full, strong voice than it is for males to hit the C5.
Selrisitai Agreed, since the female voice is, on average, a fifth above a male voice, not a whole octave

I suppose this would explain why I so seldom hear, even in professional music, a woman who sings in a full, strong voice who can hit good, powerful high notes, say, the F5.
Selrisitai The highest I've used in my actual recordings is an A5 (I can hit a C6 on a good day), but that's in a reinforced head voice, which is fine for Halford/Gillain/Plant style screaming, but not for the bulk of my singing, as I'm still working on blending the tone of the two.
Dio managed to sit comfortably around B4 (& up to D5) in full voice in Rainbow in the Dark, and most girls I know, me included can't hit that comfortably without switching registers.
Look at my channel for the Christmas songs. A lot of low baritone stuff
Also, check out the singer from Children of the Beast Tribute Band 2 Iron Maiden.
Yes I have seen him. He was built to sing Iron Maiden. He does a spot on imitation of Bruce.
@@TotalSinging love your vids
Thank you so much for this video. Bruce is a favorite of mine. Also, I just had an audition as an Iron Maiden tribute frontman, and got invited back, but am under some typical Bruce notes by about a 5th when I try to belt (like the D at the top of El Dorado chorus). The band is ok with me adjusting melodies, but I'd like to be as faithful to Bruce's work as possible. This video gives me the most hope of anything I've come across. Even though my voice is still kinda shot from that audition two days ago, I tried Run to the Hills chorus using chest and head and could do it! Didn't sound very powerful, but it's a start! Looking in to the course you mention at the end of the video. Thank you!
