in the 5th week of the competition I decided to choose the best song by the band dream theater, the title is the spirit carries on, I'm sure everyone knows this song, it's a good song, but forgive me because the quality of my cover is still very bad lol .
You can see the lyrics of this song here
Where did we come from?
Why are we here?
Where do we go when we die?
What lies beyond
And what lay before?
Is anything certain in life?
They say "Life is too short"
"The here and the now"
And "You're only given one shot"
But there could be more
Have I lived before
Or could this be all that we've got?
If I die tomorrow
I'd be alert
Because I believe
That after we're gone
The spirit carries on
I used to be frightened of dying
I used to think death was the end
But that was before
I`m not scared anymore
I know that my soul will transcend
I may never find all the answers
I may never understand why
I may never prove
What I know to be true
But I know that I still have to try
"Move on, be brave
Don't weep at my grave
Because I'm no longer here
But please never let go
Your memories of me disappear"
Safe in the light that surrounds me
Free of the fear and the pain
My questioning mind
Has helped me to find
The meaning in my life again
Victoria's estate
I finally feel
At peace with the girl in my dreams
And now that I'm here
It's perfectly clear
I found out what all of this means
This vibes community is very special and unique in my opinion, I'm sure vibes.co will continue to grow and become a big platform for musical talents around the world. This time I posted my video on 3speak, as usual I used my smartphone camera and edited it with Capcut, my editing techniques are still very basic so please understand hahaha. For friends who haven't taken part in this competition, you should do it immediately.

Genial, muy buen post felicidades

Oh man, just saw the title so far and HAD to click in. I imagine this is gonna be tough. Listening now...
... Ok you went the octave below lol, that makes more sense (more possible). It's really great! Really good control for rhythm, pitch. Nice!
Just a bit of advice from singer to singer - When you hit the higher notes, you'd be better to belt it out full volume rather than trying to restrict your volume.
Using full voice as much as possible is always the best way for this kinda song, and you'll get far more range without crackling if you blast out big notes!
Even a bass vocalist should be able to get to the E above middle C before breaking into head voice - give it a whirl and wake up the neighbours!
I couldn't possibly use the original basic key, hahaha Labrie's voice is really high, for someone with a bass voice like me it's impossible to keep up with it, so lowering the octave makes more sense hahah. I was afraid to wake up the neighbors, they were fast asleep when I made the video hahaha, btw thank you for your comment.
Yeah I know the feeling. I have yet to find a place in the world isolated enough that i'd be brave enough to hear what my loudest possible sound would be. If so much as a mole hears me I'm too scared to try lol.
BUT, now I teach choir I have to bring it out more XD You're a natural!
Keren bang @rico.csirait
