        <![CDATA[ I know there aren&#39;t too many of us here on the boards, but I thought it would be useful to create a thread showcasing our own before and afters, I think it
might help future forum and current members to see how some of us who have been around longer have progressed from the olden days.


It would help if you could post clips of the same song, but if not that&#39;s cool. Also, include approximate dates if possible.


I shall begin!

<br>
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.box.net/shared/65ix3adtu4">Gentle Savior: High C Comparisons</a>
<br>
<br>
The first clip you&#39;ll hear was recorded on April 4, 2007. The second clip you&#39;ll hear was recorded on January 3, 2008. The third clip was recorded on
January 5, 2009.

  For some reason I hadn&#39;t seen you post here muse, thanks! I definitely hear the progress. Oh, and I like the sound of the band ^_^
</blockquote>Thank you, yeah in those days I wouldn&#39;t have a voice after every show, I would push far too hard.
<br>
<br>
Now, I hope I&#39;m going closer to a free voice.
<br>
<br>
Thanks for the compliment on my band, but I feel like we could have been a little tighter.

Anywho it was alotta fun ]]></description>

Those popping sounds and distortion is really bad though. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ LOL!! I&#39;m sooo embarrassed to post my before and afters. But seeing how it&#39;s all for fun and laughs, I may as well.
<br>
<br>
For both clips, I sang inbetween chest and mixed voice range. I don&#39;t know why my Chinese song sounds so unclear (the voice sounds muffled) on these
speakers... when I was mixing up the file it sounded quite clear with headphones.

<br>
Wow that is such a fail. I don&#39;t know why that happened. Heck, the second one, I recorded with the lyrics right in front of me. O.o
<br>
<br>
Well, you find out something new every day I guess, even about your own flawed lyrical habits. =/ lol. Well, thank goodness I&#39;ve never sang the national
anthem for an event! At least now I know I&#39;ve always been singing it wrong! Haha thanks guys, I appreciate you pointing that out. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ I noticed the lyrical flubs as well. Unfortunately, with a song so revered and well-known, lyrical mistakes can&#39;t really fly under the radar, but I know
they were unintentional on your part. <img src="http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/wink.gif">
<br>
<br>
As you know, you sang &quot;perilous <em>n</em>ight&quot; instead of &quot;fight&quot; in the before clip. However, you have a mistake in both the before and
after clips: for the lyric, &quot;O&#39;er the ramparts we watched,... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Haha, agreed on that UW, I&#39;m working on expanding my dynamics too XD. Like I always like to put in some amount of falsetto/headvoice in my songs, but
I&#39;m working on using other coordinatons and stuffies too. Although I think in the end I will always have a soft spot for taking on &quot;big&quot; songs, I
don&#39;t like locking myself in that area, and I wanna learn to sing softer nicely without sacrificing my own vocal characteristics I guess. ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ Thanks guys! It&#39;s awesome to hear the progress we&#39;ve made =] I thought it would be helpful to hear like &quot;real people&quot;s before and afters as
apposed to those placed on a singing programs website(No offense jesse, you&#39;re awesome!). I think it just inspires some sort of psychological confidence
when the very people you&#39;re interacting with online have made substantial progress via practice and advice.

I have an even older clip of Silent Night, about a month... ]]></description>
