Hello~ I'm Lillie. So you wanna be critic-ed? I have been singing for nearly 10 years and have the music knowledge to match. I don't have perfect pitch but I have a good ear so I can help you with your harmonies~ I am fluent in English, Mandarin and Cantonese but I also know the pronunciations of Japanese and Korean.
Ok! Maximum of 2 clips per person per post! Please only post once after every 10 member submissions~ give other people a chance to be critic-ed~
Song challenge: CHINESE: Fahrenheit songs Rainie Yang songs FAMA songs Fish Leong songs Show Luo songs Joey Yung songs
늘 똑같은 하늘에 늘 같은 하루 neul ttokgateun haneure neul gateun harutoo soft and need deeper breath support, wobbly pitch on the really low notes - take deeper breaths using your diaphragm, you could also raise the key of the song by 2 more so that it is easier to sing the low notes 그대가 없는 것 말고는 달라진 게 없는데 geudaega eomneun geot malgoneun dallajin ge eomneunde - see above 난 웃고만 싶은데 다 잊은 듯이 nan utgoman sipeunde da ijeun deusi 아무일 아는 듯 그렇게 amuil aneun deut geureoke 웃으면 살고픈데 useumyeon salgopeunde -> a mixing trick: raise the volume of your low notes so that they don't get so drowned in the instumental
그리워 그리워서 그대가 그리워서 geuriwo geuriwoseo geudaega geuriwoseo 매일 난 혼자서만 그대를 부르고 불러봐요 maeil nan honjaseoman geudaereul bureugo bulleobwayo 보고파 보고파서 그대가 보고파서 bogopa bogopaseo geudaega bogopaseo 이제 난 습관처럼 그대 이름만 부르네요 ije nan seupgwancheoreom geudae ireumman bureuneyo 오늘도 oneuldo
난 보낸줄 알았죠 다 남김없이 nan bonaenjul aratjyo da namgimeobsi - same thing as above - some notes disappeared into the instrumental 아니죠 아니죠 난 아직 그대를 못 보냈죠 anijyo anijyo nan ajik geudaereul mot bonaetjyo 그리워 그리워서 그대가 그리워서
geuriwo geuriwoseo geudaega geuriwoseo 매일 난 혼자서만 그대를 부르고 불러봐요 maeil nan honjaseoman geudaereul bureugo bulleobwayo 보고파 보고파서 그대가 보고파서 bogopa bogopaseo geudaega bogopaseo 이제 난 습관처럼 그대 이름만 부르네요 ije nan seupgwancheoreom geudae ireumman bureuneyo 오늘도 oneuldo
하루하루가 죽을 것만 같은 어떻게 해야 해요 haruharuga jugeul geotman gateun eotteoke haeya haeyo - more feeling! Everyday, everyday, it feels like I’m gonna die, what should I do? It's up to your interpretation - you could sing this sadly or "sad-angrily"
사랑해 사랑해요 그대를 사랑해요 saranghae saranghaeyo geudaereul saranghaeyo 말조차 못하고서 그대를 그렇게 보냈네요 maljocha motagoseo geudaereul geureoke bonaenneyo 미안해 미안해요 내말이 들리나요 mianhae mianhaeyo naemari deullinayo 뒤늣은 내 고백을 그댄 들을 수 있을까요 dwineuseun nae gobaegeul geudaen deureul su isseulkkayo 사랑해요 saranghaeyo - more control needed for vibrato here - your vibrato is too fast at the ends of phrases and sometimes uneven - a slower vibrato would suit this song better. you can practice vibrato by singing between semitones slowly to get them even and controlled -your vibratos at the ends of phrases could also be held longer and kept louder for longer, they reduce in volume too quickly

Collab ^^ Honest grade of over all collab as well as mixing plz :D
Spoiler:
Nice vocals, couldn't pick out any wrong pitches. - but, there wasn't much phrasing used to shape the song to give it more emotion.So,, more emotion! Sing the important bits louder to emphasise the meaning. Adlibs should be full of emotion! Technique-wise, singing with vibrato would give shape and make the song sound more 'delicate' - vibrato is great for ballads.
Mixing wise: just a tad too much echo in the first verses, some of the voices were Eq-ed too far back when they could have been closer and the volume could have been brought up for the ends of phrases - some of the long notes disappeared a bit fast.

Diction problem - your words were slurred in a lot of places, you need to pay more attention to the pronunciation of words especially the ends of words Your high notes sounded strained - lost the fullness of your voice. Either pitch the song lower or sing with more open relaxed vocals. Small timing issues. 90%

Lilliee~ Hara's turn ^^ ps-i'm having fun with our poke war on fb kekeke
I just wanna tell you How I’ll love you so (for all my life) I just wanna tell you Oh I’ll miss you so But now it’s time to go
How I, searched for sunrise You were, always by my side We will, be forever Lovers in the sky
I’m put together By your love forever Just wanna let you Take me to the place I know I’ll be alright with you.
Torn Apart, but never Say goodbye Oh never Go on and tell me I just wanna hold you, won’t be Without you Without you Without you
Taking time to breathe now How far along we’ve come (and I know) Time will tell its reasons Now it’s time to go Think you should know
How I, searched for sunrise You were, always by my side We will, be forever Lovers in the sky
I’m put together By your love forever Just wanna let you Take me to the place I know I’ll be alright with you.
Torn Apart, but never Say goodbye Oh never Go on and tell me I just wanna hold you, won’t be without you
So many things I want to say to you I love you so Oh yea~
I’m put together By your love forever Just wanna let you Take me to the place I know I’ll be alright Take me to the place I know I’ll be alright with you
I’m put together say good bye you never go on and tell me I just wanna hold you, wanna be alright with you Be alright With you Be alright With you Be alright with you Shaky pitch(underlined parts) - some flat, some sharp. Take deeper breaths to push the flat notes harder but control(practice and more practice) that pushing so that it doesn't become sharp. Timing problems are more obvious because you are singing along with the original song and have no room for free-styling, but it will sound better if you follow the timing of the original singer if you sing over the top of the original. Also, because you are singing along with the original, try to time your slurred notes/note changes to the original - it sounds out of tune if you hold the note too long because the next note clashes with it (this won't be a problem when you sing with an instrumental) 80%
autotune - turned all the way up? Some flat notes here and there - either the effect didn't alter those notes well enough or you were flat. Most obvious on high notes and Yeol rin mu ni ya mu ni ya. The last line is also flat. Timing is also a problem here but less serious than the first song you posted. 80%
hehe poke war is fun~ :D

The instrumental is only heard on the left - audacity: duplicate this mp3 and set the 2nd one with right placement so that it 'completes' the instrumental. flat notes - take deeper breaths (breath with a mouth shape like "^O^" not "^A^") to support your notes, this will also help your runs. Try to sing with your chest voice(talking voice) instead of your head voice so that you can hit your notes stronger - it will be easier to control your pitches too More dynamics could have been added Watch out for tempo/timing - sometimes you're faster and sometimes you're slower. Practice the song more or if it has tricky entries, tap your foot/hand along with the beat of the song (or sway/bob head/move to the beat)

Spoiler:
Some of the harmony lines at the start don't work together well to create a nice blend. Flat notes here and there. Soft notes are lost in the instrumental. Your run at 3mins could have been executed better/smoother High notes were pitchy around 3:20 - try using mix voice to have a better control of pitch and better tone

Timing/tempo seems to a problem (e.g eh, eh, eh) - sometimes you're ahead of the music and sometimes your behind the music. You can tap your feet/hand or sway to the beat to stay in time with the song. Pitch problems (e.g. high notes: sharp, long note at 2:32 is flat) - take deeper breaths to support/control your notes better More dynamics/phrasing could have been added (e.g. 1:50 could have been softer)

Timing/tempo seems to a problem (e.g eh, eh, eh) - sometimes you're ahead of the music and sometimes your behind the music. You can tap your feet/hand or sway to the beat to stay in time with the song. Pitch problems (e.g. high notes: sharp, long note at 2:32 is flat) - take deeper breaths to support/control your notes better More dynamics/phrasing could have been added (e.g. 1:50 could have been softer)

thank you ^^ ill try and improve using your advicee.

"Because Of You"
I will not make the same mistakes that you did I will not let myself Cause my heart so much misery I will not break the way you did, You fell so hard I've learned the hard way To never let it get that far
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me Because of you I am afraid
I lose my way And it's not too long before you point it out I cannot cry Because I know that's weakness in your eyes I'm forced to fake A smile, a laugh everyday of my life My heart can't possibly break When it wasn't even whole to start with
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me, but everyone around me Because of you I am afraid
I watched you die I heard you cry every night in your sleep I was so young You should have known better than to lean on me You never thought of anyone else You just saw your pain And now I cry in the middle of the night For the same damn thing
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt Because of you I try my hardest just to forget everything Because of you I don't know how to let anyone else in Because of you I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty Because of you I am afraid
Because of you Ho~ Because of you Ho~

You need to watch out for the ends of notes and make sure to pronounce them as well instead of chopping them off - the sung word sounds "unfinished" right now. Vocal chords need to be more relaxed, I can hear the tension in your throat and this is bad for your throat and vocal chords. If the song is too high then you should consider lowering the pitch. I can tell that the slide up to the notes is your style of singing but you need to be careful that you slide from the right pitch to the right ending pitch as you sometimes miss the note. Also watch out for the pitch in your chorus solo - a bit sharp. 75%

Watch out for your pitch on notes - take deeper breaths to support them. Harmonies are hit but not confidently and supported - singing harmonies requires a good ear, listen to the harmonies in the song and try to recreate them in your singing. If you know a bit about music theory then you would also know that the most harmonies are 3 semitones/pitches higher than the melody. 80%

Very pitchy - singalong with the song a couple of times to be confident with the melody. Sometimes you are pushing the notes out too hard and sometimes too soft which results in sharp and flat pitches throughout the song. More practice of the song and more confidence in what you are singing will result in a better cover. 70%

Pitch - just a little slow on some note changes, so focus more breath on/between note changes (have the note in your head, imagine it and how it sounds like and how you are physically going to move your vocals chords to push the next note) Harmonies should be lower by 1-2 semitones. Harmonies come with more practice, so ou can find instrumentals with backing vocals/harmonies and practice singing along with those. Good phrasing and emotion Melody~ Ahh, you are your own worst critic. Only you know what little mistakes exist, but to others they may not even be mistakes :) 90%

Harmonies too loud at the start - mixing mistake Pitchy notes, needs more confidence and more breath support (for those end notes and long phrases) Slight timing issues, coming in slower - practice the song more to familiarize yourself with the entrances Lacking emotion - very prettily sung, but this song needed some ugliness (some tears and snot) 80%
low notes lost in the guitar - should have transposed the song higher to make it easier to sing thus louder singing to not be drowned out Emotion was better in this one but could've had some more~ since the songs all carry a different style 90%

Mixing noise clicks (mostly at the start) and pronunciation are the only things that I can pick out. Clicks and puffs in recordings can be silenced/removed~ What audio program do you mix with? Watch out for pronunciation of j-words Hm, and the backing vocals could've been lowered a few notches 95%
