About 10 years ago, I took some vocal lessons. I'll bet that helped. I got a tape of exercises that the girl gave me, which I don't do anymore, but they were good. And I don't smoke.
Dan Hicks
Acquiring a repertoire in these days, when the vocal literature is so immense, so overwhelming, that the student with sense will devote all his energies to work and not imagine himself a martyr to art.
Alma Gluck
And I've had vocal training on and off for years.
Julia Barr
As women, we have more of a tendency to be people-pleasers, and I know a lot of women who are not vocal about what makes them happy.
Katherine Heigl
As you know, there are certain languages that lend themselves very easily to vocal use.
Neville Marriner
Attempting to write vocal oriented songs to me felt like going through the motions and if you are going to go through the motions you might as well just do any gig that caused you to do repetitive motions like banging a hammer or serving fries.
Ronnie Montrose
Brenda did some little vocal arrangements for us and she got to sing as well. So, we're happy to be able to work together and that's another reason why we look forward to doing more of these.
Rick Derringer
But my role is to just apply the skills I've learned over the years: you listen to the guitar, you listen to the vocal melodies, you listen to the rhythm, and you come up with something that helps you take the song somewhere.
Krist Novoselic
But when you get to a song, not only do you have to do a vocal melody, you have to write words and not be redundant and make some semblance of a story.
Glenn Danzig
Dysphonia is not a singing problem. It's a voice box issue in the muscle on the voice, very different from having a nodule on the vocal cords, which I've never had. I'm lucky that I've never had that. It needs a long renewal time, and even today, I am still addressing it.
Shania Twain
Even if I don't have the money to take vocal lessons, I'll practice in the house by myself singing out loud.
Christina Milian
For my part, if I consider poetry as an object, I maintain that it is born of the necessity of adding a vocal sound (speech) to the hammering of the first tribal music.
Eugenio Montale
I definitely don't subscribe to the theory that more instruments, or more vocal tracks, harmony, or double tracking the voice, is a good thing. People do their early albums very stripped down, then each album becomes bloated.
Joanna Newsom
I do a lot of vocal hygiene.
Lesley Garrett
I do not know whether there be, as a rule, more vocal expression of the sentiment of love between a man and a woman, than there is between two thrushes. They whistle and call to each other, guided by instinct rather than by reason.
Anthony Trollope
I don't dictate the solos and I don't dictate the vocal harmonies.
Dan Hicks
I felt I never needed to fight for a more prominent songwriting and increased vocal role with the Cars.
Benjamin Orr
I keep these songs in my head until I get behind the microphone. I never spend more than 30 or 40 minutes singing the vocal or it will sound mechanical. There are always mistakes, but it's about feeling more than being perfect.
Brian McKnight
I like writing on piano and a computer, and a lot of 'Plans' came out of samples and vocal lines.
Ben Gibbard
I never took any vocal training.
