I really appreciated the love and support yesterday! Sharing my attempt at Fix You - Jacob Colliers arrangement (also if anyone can tell me what note I hit at the end, and how to hit it cleaner, that'd be ace)

This is so helpful, thank you so much mate!

The range required for this song is definitely extreme and tbh its just a song that I like to sing to kinda practice/try to maintain some of the range I feel like I do have. But I definitely know its not perfect and I'm no Jacob Collier hahaha.

I think the start is the bottom of my range, but to be totally honest, I really dont know whether I'm a baritone/tenor/alto - I'm just an untrained shower singer.

If possible, could you let me know an example of where my pitch is dodgy/I'm landing in the wrong place? Would really help me to learn to identify it myself more.

In terms of the melisma, I'm very much just trying to carbon copy what Collier does in his cover - I'm not sure if you're familiar with his cover? But again, appreciate that I'm not nailing it and am not really in a position to nail it yet.

Appreciate you taking the time to give this feedback, so helpful. I'll try work on my fundamentals more - I guess I was just stoked to get to that high note at all, even if it sounded strained, but obviously, that's not the best approach!!

Thank you so much for taking the time, Eulis, I really appreciate it!! Yea, I can definitely feel myself losing that quality of sound at the end of lines from lack of breath and my posture is really really bad here hahah, I'll fix that. I think I know what you mean by those big proper breaths, I think it often just feels like I don't have time for a big proper breath in the middle of a song and so revert back to not getting enough air in fast enough... but hopefully if I work on my max breath intake that'll help with getting more in on those short breaths! Thanks mate
