The Vocal Squirrel

Weird title, huh?

Traditionally, birdhouses and bird feeders are meant for - you guessed it - birds. It's actually been this way for a long time. We humans build these wooden sanctuaries for these little (or big) birds. It would seem odd for me to construct a small wooden house and give it too a rabbit. The space would be too small and of course the bunny wouldn't use it. Why, because it's not built for him. 

Yesterday I saw a squirrel in the bird house. This was not made for him and was not intended for his use. Clearly, the squirrel thought differently. He saw absolutely nothing wrong with it and got what he wanted - food.

Funny. We often build things to only be used by and for a specific purpose, and if we see them being used for anything else other than this purpose we deem it as wrong. In the world of singing, there are many things that some singers are told they "shouldn't" do. Like an artist who sings pop really well is made for that genre and only that genre. He/she should never  sing opera because they weren't designed to sing it. Really? If it's up to me, I'll be the vocal squirrel and venture into vocal lands that seem unfitted for me. In doing this, we often find out that we are right were we should have been.

Remember - whatever you put your mind to is possible. Well, almost.

Imagine - your voice is like the guy in the beginning, then it gets stronger and stronger through One Voice technique training. What if it could become a legend? What if your voice could make you the king of the world... not bad. ;) Enjoy your April Fools day!

3 Tips To Get Your Singing Love Back

When was the last time you can remember singing just for the love? Unfortunately for many singers, this is a hard question to answer. At the professional level it can become even more difficult. The best thing to do is go back to your roots. 

Remember when you used to sing in the shower, or when you sang on top of your bed to the sold out crowd of teddy bears? It's when your singing career began. We sang not because we had to, but because we loved to. 

1. Find three songs you love (and their karaoke tracks), go to a place where no one else can hear you, pretend you're singing to a sold out crowd and rocking it!

2. Force yourself to go out and sing at a karaoke bar with friends.

3. Join or create an a cappella singing group where you can sing with others just for fun. 

It's important to allow your imagination to free up a bit. Let go of your technical singing thoughts and have some fun. Finding the love in your singing is not as hard as it might seem. Enjoy the journey and find the love!
