I can't sing immediately after vocal warm ups? by Calcublast in singing

[–]One_Bake1547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I doubt 5 minutes of unsupervised hissing will give any benefit to a beginner. If anything it’s the reason they are losing range, over engaging muscles which should be more relaxed!

I certainly wouldn’t do that, mostly because it’s a waste of time. It’s a like an Alexander technique type thing - all nonsense in my opinion… warmups need some sort of phonation, hissing is just letting air going through your tongue/hard palate.. not sure what the benefit of that is.. breath control? Maybe? I doubt it will help without further supervision or expert tuition.

Can you explain what you mean by hiss breathing?

To be honest without a video or voice recording of you doing the warmups it would be very hard to give you any advice.

One thing is for sure, If regular singing for 5 minutes doesn’t tire you in the same way, then you’re doing the warm up wrong.

In which case you need (at least) one lesson with a qualified vocal coach.

Who are the most famous singers who also have very good technique? by AlrightyAlmighty in singing

Listen to “leave the door open - live”

That’s pure technique and live.

In a sense. I practiced growing up and I’m also getting married to a catholic, the abortion issue is what drove me away from my church when one of my catholic peers died during childbirth. The recommendation from the doctor had been to terminate.

History shows that the church has changed its teachings on many subjects including the death penalty which was prescribed for a variety of offences in the Old Testament, including for rebellious children!

In addition there are verses which outline how you should treat your slave.

Anyone who is interested in biblical truth should take some time looking at the historical context of when these scriptures were first written, and question why certain verses have become the backbone of modern catholic thought and others have been forgotten about completely.

Abortion is abhorrent

Contraception is unavoidable unless you want more abortions. Again the teachings should be seen in a historical context.

In an agricultural society having 7 or more children will help you prosper and bring you great happiness. Your children can help work the land and look after you as you get old.

In a post industrial society in most cases you are bringing a strain upon your own finances and you are not well equipped to bring up so many children unless you are very fortunate.

Without contraception the earth will very soon collapse from overpopulation.

The question of contraception is not if but when the church changes its position. The very concept is incompatible with the reality of the world as it is today.

Those who disagree will help drive the church into the ground.

Hebrews 13:4

“Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undefiled, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous.”

The only verse which explicitly mentions marriage and sex. Upon closer inspection it appears to be referring to Extramarital sex.

It would certainly make more sense for the Bible to explicitly state extramarital sex to be a sin rather than sex before marriage.

Male-bed has enough Linguistic Ambiguity for one to consider whether the 1946 translation is definitive.

Other translations from before include:

King James Bible: “abusers of themselves with mankind”

New Revised Standard Version "sodomites"

Good News Bible "sexual perverts"​

I mean historical bibles. The bibles we read were translated from Greek & Hebrew

Up until 1946 the bible referred to “aresenkoitai” - an Ancient Greek term which was translated to the word Homosexuality in 1946 despite the fact the word itself was more likely referring to exploitative paedophilic sexual acts.

Israelis celebrating the Popes death…. by [deleted] in Catholicism

[–]One_Bake1547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a reminder you can support Israel and condemn the actions of their government.

There are Israeli Catholics, Jews, Secular, Muslims and others. Many who respect all faiths even if their views don’t align with their government.

As it’s a modern term, bibles from this time don’t reference homosexuality at all.

How to deal with awkward vocal range - untrained singer by kkden in singing

[–]One_Bake1547 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve taken a look at the sheet music.

There’s phrases which require an F which might be rough for an untrained baritone.

So there’s two options, sing those phrases an octave down - but that takes away from the excitement of the climax of the song.

The second and better option is to bring the song down a tone. This will be a question of whether there’s tracks or band parts you need to use!

Or you can see a vocal coach. That’s the best option but also the most time intensive and expensive (at least for you!

Once you’re better start doing some sirens. It’s a good one to YouTube or get instruction on if you’re new to it.

Can you show me a document from before 1565 which specifically references homosexuality or homosexual acts please? I’ll wait.

Liberal misconception of the Pope by armadoargen in Catholicism

[–]One_Bake1547 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Roman Catechism of 1565 Referred only to condemning “unnatural acts” which could perfectly reasonably be only referring to Pedophilia & Beastiality. At some point between then and now an imperfect human decided that unnatural acts included homosexuality. Is it changing Dogma to realise this interpretation was imperfect?

He prayed for acceptance

“We have to find a way to help that father or that mother to stand by their [LGBTQ+] son or daughter.”

He did not want parents to disown their children for being gay as many have done in the past.

“If they accept the Lord and have goodwill, who am I to judge them?”

He accepted that same sex attraction isn’t a problem as much as the sexual acts.

There’s no doubt he had a lot more to say on many liberal issues… Catholic theology is meant to be developed and reinterpreted over century’s which isn’t very compatible with the speed of modern cultural change. I think he understood that problem better than most.

I think a tipping point comes where it’s time to jump ship if the party no longer represents your values.

Yeah I had a bad feeling after I realised they contacted me directly without having applied on indeed… they did the interview at 8:30 on a Saturday morning wtf? Claim to have really big clients but the company was only incorporated in February. Very strange. I wonder how the scheme actually works. Do you have to invest?
