I could really see his difficulty finding Head Voice in the beginning, but towards the end, you can see how much it developed!

[tompayne]

Head voice is where the vocal chords zip up, and the resonance is shifted to up in the head. It has power. Falsetto is when the chords basically lose all compression, and break apart from eachother, giving a weak, breathy tone.

Brett looks fed up with this guy at 2:13 with his little "OMG" glance at the camera

[TheKylex]

YESSSS! I just gained my HEAD VOICE practicing with this video.. :))

It's used to be able to visualize the vibration that should be created when the technique is applied correctly.

The student sounds kinda like a kazoo. :-) I guess everybody can improve on their tools, but those great-toned hi register abilities are a gift that you're born with.

There's a big part of this video missing.... When it cuts from the warmup at 2:42, Astin has a hard time singing the Bb in head voice. Then it cuts, and they're singing to make the guitarstrings vibrate- sudden, and now he has a B without any problems. There's probably some music theory to discribe how it's easier because it's higher. But I would like to see how the hell his voice seemed to change so suddenly, cause THAT's where I'm stuck...

[Nedls]

they brett guy has full proper opera voice, whoo

[twilightrider]

Well, I can get the following: this high and soft sound is projected like we call 'head voice'... but, in my conception, when men do high notes THAT softly, I call it 'falsetto', like a contratenor does. Even when it's done corrrectly, we can hear huge amounts of air. So, for me, falsetto is more like a technique, not a wrong thing to do.

[Cbluesrocker]

@CaitlynBarone Haha.. Yes, head voice is definitely for girls as well!

[Markosoulman]

Brett..always my guru!!! Austin...his limit is also in his chest breathing!I noticed that especially in the begining of the video! Anyway...Brett..you method is INCREDIBLE!!!You're a genius!!Good teacher and good singer!!(supergood!) ;)

[geoboy]

right I have no idea what I just did. I'm a baritone and somehow I just hit the note at 1:38. the roof of my mouth was incredibly tense (not good obv) but I'm just stunned that I managed it. Thanks for this vid. I learnt alot about placement.

[TheBadboysdream]

Everytime I do that exercise with them, I see the difference with my own voice really. Someone just asked that how could his changed in 1 min. If you do it correctly your voice will change in no time too. He's a great teacher really. I wish I was a little closer to him so I could take some private lessons. My voice is strong but one of my muscles is lazy as its dynamic is a little broken. Also Headvoice is close to falsetto. but brigther and stronger than falsetto.

[David_eNGee]

...and I'm Austin Tingle. *tingles*

[ASSHOLELA]

I switch from chest to head easily. But then around C5 theres a break. Its very difficult to phonate C5-F5, but then at G5 and beyond its becomes easier again because i start going into superhead and whistle. I can sing up to Eb7 on normal days. Do you guys ever know of something called a head-superhead voice break? =p

[ChikkiShgs]

Its nice to see a video with no dislikes

[smparsons]

@Danerage That is simply not true. Falsetto is a result of lack of cord closure, and it causes the voice to become very airy. His voice isn't airy at all.

[oldschoolrockevr]

@adsyboy07 Its not immaturity its just how singing works if u want to get technicall

[Fishinpastein]

This sounds exactly like falsetto to me. (Even at the end) I myself have a falsetto that sounds exactly like this (and not all twangy like Austin, though I'll sing like that when imitating Neil Young) so I really have no idea why they're calling this head voice. I may have no idea why what head voice should sound like (my head voice sounds completely different than this) but I'm sure that I'm singing in a well-supported falsetto considering I can reach B5. I also know I'm a baritone (G2-A#4)

[Renee]

thank you for this. my issue is my head voice is only strong when making an ooh sound Its very weak when making an an ahh sound..pleas help I really enjoy singing.
