  Do
• 0:00
  you
• 0:00
  have
• 0:00
  any
• 0:00
  quick
• 0:01
  tips
• 0:01
  that
• 0:01
  you
• 0:01
  can
• 0:01
  give
• 0:02
  people
• 0:02
  like
• 0:02
  myself
• 0:03
  just
• 0:04
  as
• 0:04
  far
• 0:04
  as
• 0:04
  things
• 0:05
  to
• 0:05
  think
• 0:05
  about
• 0:05
  when
• 0:06
  speaking
• 0:06
  and
• 0:06
  how
• 0:06
  to
• 0:07
  kind
• 0:07
  of
• 0:07
  break
• 0:08
  past
• 0:08
  that
• 0:09
  little
• 0:10
  ring?
• 0:11
  So
• 0:11
  much
• 0:12
  is
• 0:12
  going
• 0:12
  on
• 0:12
  on
• 0:12
  the
• 0:13
  inside,
• 0:13
  right.
• 0:14
  To
• 0:14
  create
• 0:15
  this.
• 0:16
  So
• 0:17
  much
• 0:17
  that
• 0:17
  we
• 0:17
  have
• 0:17
  no
• 0:17
  control
• 0:18
  over,
• 0:18
  really.
• 0:19
  But
• 0:19
  in
• 0:19
  your
• 0:19
  case,
• 0:20
  I'm
• 0:20
  going
• 0:20
  to
• 0:20
  tell
• 0:20
  you,
• 0:20
  Anthony,
• 0:21
  that
• 0:21
  there
• 0:21
  are
• 0:22
  four
• 0:22
  articulators
• 0:23
  and
• 0:23
  you're
• 0:23
  right
• 0:24
  now
• 0:24
  only
• 0:24
  using
• 0:25
  one,
• 0:26
  which
• 0:26
  is
• 0:26
  the
• 0:27
  tongue.
• 0:27
  You
• 0:27
  literally
• 0:28
  are
• 0:28
  talking
• 0:28
  like
• 0:29
  this
• 0:29
  again.
• 0:29
  So
• 0:30
  your
• 0:30
  jaw
• 0:30
  is
• 0:31
  tight.
• 0:31
  You
• 0:31
  are
• 0:32
  not
• 0:32
  using
• 0:32
  your
• 0:32
  lips.
• 0:34
  Right.
• 0:34
  But
• 0:35
  what
• 0:35
  is
• 0:35
  making
• 0:35
  the
• 0:36
  words
• 0:36
  is
• 0:36
  your
• 0:37
  tongue.
• 0:38
  So
• 0:38
  your
• 0:38
  tongue
• 0:38
  is
• 0:39
  attached
• 0:39
  to
• 0:39
  your
• 0:39
  larynx.
• 0:40
  I'm
• 0:40
  going
• 0:40
  to
• 0:40
  speak
• 0:40
  normally.
• 0:43
  We
• 0:43
  have
• 0:43
  four
• 0:43
  articulators.
• 0:44
  Our
• 0:45
  cheeks.
• 0:45
  When
• 0:46
  I
• 0:46
  was
• 0:46
  talking
• 0:46
  about
• 0:46
  Shawn
• 0:47
  Mendez,
• 0:47
  he
• 0:47
  uses
• 0:48
  his
• 0:48
  cheeks
• 0:48
  a
• 0:49
  lot.
• 0:49
  It
• 0:49
  causes
• 0:50
  a
• 0:50
  lot
• 0:51
  of
• 0:51
  tension
• 0:52
  and
• 0:52
  as
• 0:52
  a
• 0:52
  result,
• 0:53
  you
• 0:53
  know
• 0:53
  that
• 0:53
  he
• 0:53
  has
• 0:54
  a
• 0:54
  professional
• 0:56
  ear,
• 0:56
  nose
• 0:57
  and
• 0:57
  throat?
• 0:57
  No,
• 0:57
  he's
• 0:57
  a
• 0:58
  speech
• 0:58
  pathologist.
• 0:58
  His
• 0:59
  name
• 0:59
  is
• 0:59
  Aaron
• 0:59
  Lowe.
• 1:00
  And
• 1:00
  Aaron
• 1:01
  actually
• 1:01
  massages
• 1:02
  his
• 1:02
  larynx
• 1:03
  after
• 1:03
  the
• 1:03
  gig.
• 1:04
  Do
• 1:04
  you
• 1:04
  know
• 1:04
  that
• 1:05
  every
• 1:05
  show
• 1:05
  goes
• 1:06
  on.
• 1:06
  I
• 1:06
  thought
• 1:06
  he
• 1:06
  massage
• 1:07
  a
• 1:07
  larynx.
• 1:08
  Oh,
• 1:09
  on
• 1:09
  the
• 1:09
  outside.
• 1:09
  I
• 1:09
  thought
• 1:09
  he
• 1:09
  like
• 1:10
  goes
• 1:10
  in
• 1:11
  there.
• 1:12
  Although
• 1:13
  I
• 1:14
  have
• 1:14
  had
• 1:15
  people
• 1:15
  put
• 1:15
  on
• 1:15
  gloves
• 1:16
  and
• 1:16
  you
• 1:16
  can
• 1:16
  massage
• 1:17
  your
• 1:17
  cheek,
• 1:18
  the
• 1:18
  inside
• 1:18
  of
• 1:19
  your
• 1:19
  mouth,
• 1:19
  your
• 1:19
  jaw.
• 1:20
  I've
• 1:20
  had
• 1:20
  it
• 1:20
  all
• 1:21
  done
• 1:21
  pretty
• 1:22
  crazy.
• 1:23
  But
• 1:23
  no,
• 1:23
  you
• 1:23
  go
• 1:23
  from
• 1:24
  the
• 1:24
  inside
• 1:24
  and
• 1:24
  out.
• 1:25
  But
• 1:25
  because
• 1:26
  he's
• 1:26
  using
• 1:26
  his
• 1:27
  cheeks
• 1:27
  to
• 1:27
  talk
• 1:28
  so
• 1:28
  much,
• 1:28
  he
• 1:28
  kind
• 1:29
  of
• 1:29
  is
• 1:29
  smiling
• 1:30
  all
• 1:30
  the
• 1:30
  time.
• 1:31
  It's
• 1:31
  too
• 1:31
  up.
• 1:32
  It
• 1:32
  pulls
• 1:32
  the
• 1:32
  larynx
• 1:33
  up.
• 1:34
  The
• 1:35
  jaw
• 1:35
  is
• 1:35
  another
• 1:36
  one.
• 1:36
  You
• 1:36
  don't
• 1:36
  use
• 1:37
  your
• 1:37
  jaw.
• 1:37
  So
• 1:37
  can
• 1:38
  you
• 1:38
  drop
• 1:38
  your
• 1:38
  jaw?
• 1:40
  Drop
• 1:40
  my
• 1:40
  jaw.
• 1:41
  Huh?
• 1:42
  See
• 1:43
  how
• 1:43
  your
• 1:43
  tongue
• 1:43
  pulls
• 1:44
  right
• 1:44
  back?
• 1:45
  See
• 1:45
  how
• 1:45
  your
• 1:45
  tongue
• 1:45
  was
• 1:46
  pulled
• 1:46
  right
• 1:46
  back?
• 1:46
  Can
• 1:46
  you
• 1:46
  keep
• 1:46
  it?
• 1:50
  I
• 1:50
  wish.
• 1:50
  The
• 1:51
  podcast.
• 1:52
  Drop
• 1:53
  your
• 1:53
  jaw.
• 1:53
  Drop
• 1:53
  your
• 1:53
  jaw.
• 1:54
  Drop
• 1:54
  your
• 1:54
  jaw.
• 1:54
  It
• 1:55
  will
• 1:55
  be
• 1:55
  very
• 1:55
  difficult
• 1:55
  for
• 1:55
  you
• 1:56
  to
• 1:56
  do
• 1:56
  this
• 1:56
  now.
• 1:57
  Do
• 1:57
  you
• 1:57
  see
• 1:57
  how
• 1:57
  there's
• 1:57
  an
• 1:58
  indent
• 1:58
  to
• 1:58
  your
• 1:58
  tongue
• 1:59
  there?
• 2:00
  Uh
• 2:00
  huh.
• 2:00
  I
• 2:00
  saw
• 2:01
  that.
• 2:01
  Yep.
• 2:02
  So
• 2:02
  your
• 2:02
  tongue,
• 2:03
  we
• 2:03
  call
• 2:03
  it
• 2:03
  muscular
• 2:04
  dysphonia.
• 2:05
  It
• 2:05
  means
• 2:05
  that
• 2:06
  the
• 2:06
  tongue
• 2:06
  is
• 2:06
  too
• 2:07
  tight.
• 2:07
  And
• 2:08
  you
• 2:08
  see
• 2:08
  how
• 2:08
  you
• 2:09
  hardly
• 2:09
  could
• 2:09
  drop
• 2:09
  your
• 2:10
  jaw.
• 2:10
  So
• 2:10
  we,
• 2:11
  you
• 2:11
  and
• 2:11
  I,
• 2:11
  if
• 2:12
  we
• 2:12
  were
• 2:12
  working,
• 2:13
  I
• 2:13
  wouldn't
• 2:13
  even
• 2:13
  start
• 2:14
  with
• 2:14
  singing.
• 2:14
  We
• 2:14
  have
• 2:15
  to
• 2:15
  eliminate
• 2:15
  that
• 2:16
  first
• 2:16
  and
• 2:17
  start
• 2:17
  building
• 2:17
  in
• 2:18
  core
• 2:18
  voice
• 2:18
  because
• 2:19
  your
• 2:19
  vocal
• 2:19
  cords
• 2:20
  will
• 2:20
  not
• 2:20
  coordinate
• 2:21
  if
• 2:21
  the
• 2:22
  tongue
• 2:22
  is
• 2:22
  too
• 2:23
  tight.
• 2:24
  The
• 2:24
  tongue
• 2:24
  is
• 2:25
  designed
• 2:25
  to
• 2:25
  bring
• 2:25
  food
• 2:26
  and
• 2:26
  liquid
• 2:26
  to
• 2:27
  your
• 2:27
  esophagus.
• 2:28
  And
• 2:28
  so
• 2:29
  if
• 2:29
  we're
• 2:29
  using
• 2:29
  it
• 2:30
  too
• 2:30
  much
• 2:31
  in
• 2:31
  speech,
• 2:33
  think
• 2:33
  about
• 2:34
  with
• 2:35
  arms
• 2:35
  wide
• 2:36
  open.
• 2:38
  Creed.
• 2:40
  I
• 2:40
  got
• 2:40
  you,
• 2:41
  babe.
• 2:42
  You
• 2:42
  know,
• 2:42
  like
• 2:42
  Cher.
• 2:43
  Yeah.
• 2:44
  The
• 2:44
  tongue
• 2:45
  is
• 2:45
  way
• 2:45
  back.
• 2:45
  Christina
• 2:46
  Aguilera.
• 2:47
  Oh,
• 2:47
  yeah.
• 2:49
  Is
• 2:50
  that
• 2:50
  Darker
• 2:50
  sound
• 2:51
  because
• 2:52
  the
• 2:52
  tongue
• 2:52
  pulls
• 2:53
  back.
• 2:53
  It
• 2:54
  dulls
• 2:54
  the
• 2:55
  pitch.
• 2:55
  It
• 2:55
  dulls
• 2:56
  the
• 2:56
  tone.
• 2:57
  So
• 2:58
  I'm
• 2:58
  going
• 2:58
  to
• 2:58
  give
• 2:58
  you
• 2:58
  an
• 2:59
  example.
• 2:59
  Do
• 2:59
  you
• 3:00
  believe
• 3:01
  in
• 3:01
  love
• 3:02
  after
• 3:02
  love?
• 3:03
  Very
• 3:04
  sad.
• 3:04
  Do
• 3:05
  you
• 3:05
  believe
• 3:06
  in
• 3:07
  life
• 3:07
  after
• 3:08
  love?
• 3:10
  Forward.
• 3:11
  Think
• 3:12
  about
• 3:12
  Stevie
• 3:12
  Wonder.
• 3:13
  That
• 3:13
  sound
• 3:14
  is
• 3:14
  forward
• 3:14
  because
• 3:15
  his
• 3:15
  tongue
• 3:16
  is
• 3:16
  flat.
• 3:17
  Bruno
• 3:17
  Mars,
• 3:18
  flat
• 3:19
  tongue.
• 3:19
  Chaka
• 3:20
  Khan,
• 3:21
  Latang.
• 3:22
  And
• 3:22
  when
• 3:22
  I
• 3:23
  was
• 3:23
  learning
• 3:23
  how
• 3:23
  to
• 3:24
  sing,
• 3:24
  I
• 3:24
  was
• 3:24
  like,
• 3:25
  I
• 3:25
  gotta
• 3:26
  figure
• 3:26
  out,
• 3:27
  you
• 3:27
  know,
• 3:28
  I
• 3:28
  wanted
• 3:28
  to
• 3:28
  sound
• 3:28
  like
• 3:29
  a
• 3:29
  lot
• 3:29
  of
• 3:29
  these
• 3:29
  singers.
• 3:30
  And
• 3:30
  what
• 3:31
  are
• 3:31
  they
• 3:31
  doing?
• 3:31
  What
• 3:31
  are
• 3:32
  they
• 3:32
  doing?
• 3:32
  What
• 3:32
  are
• 3:32
  they
• 3:32
  doing?
• 3:33
  Well,
• 3:33
  I
• 3:33
  have
• 3:33
  a
• 3:33
  very
• 3:33
  small
• 3:34
  mouth.
• 3:34
  I
• 3:34
  kept
• 3:34
  thinking,
• 3:35
  you
• 3:35
  need
• 3:35
  a
• 3:35
  big
• 3:35
  mouth.
• 3:36
  But
• 3:36
  then
• 3:36
  I.
• 3:39
  Not
• 3:39
  the
• 3:39
  size
• 3:40
  of
• 3:40
  the
• 3:40
  mouth,
• 3:40
  it's
• 3:41
  the
• 3:41
  tongue.
• 3:42
  If
• 3:42
  the
• 3:42
  tongue
• 3:43
  is
• 3:43
  flat,
• 3:44
  people
• 3:44
  seem
• 3:44
  to
• 3:44
  have
• 3:45
  a
• 3:45
  bigger
• 3:45
  range.
• 3:46
  When
• 3:46
  the
• 3:46
  tongue
• 3:47
  pulls
• 3:47
  back,
• 3:47
  it
• 3:48
  could
• 3:48
  be
• 3:48
  a
• 3:49
  very
• 3:49
  cool
• 3:49
  tone.
• 3:50
  Like,
• 3:51
  oh,
• 3:51
  this
• 3:51
  is
• 3:51
  a
• 3:51
  great
• 3:51
  example.
• 3:52
  Wherever,
• 3:54
  whenever,
• 3:55
  we'll
• 3:55
  be
• 3:56
  together,
• 3:58
  remember?
• 3:58
  Yeah.
• 4:01
  I
• 4:01
  thought
• 4:01
  quite
• 4:01
  well.
• 4:03
  So,
• 4:04
  you
• 4:04
  know,
• 4:04
  the
• 4:04
  top
• 4:04
  of
• 4:04
  the
• 4:05
  range
• 4:05
  is
• 4:05
  poured
• 4:06
  back.
• 4:06
  And
• 4:06
  then
• 4:06
  she
• 4:07
  went
• 4:07
  forward,
• 4:07
  and
• 4:08
  then
• 4:08
  she
• 4:08
  went
• 4:08
  backwards
• 4:09
  again.
• 4:09
  Then
• 4:10
  she
• 4:10
  went
• 4:10
  forward.
• 4:11
  And
• 4:11
  it's
• 4:11
  a
• 4:11
  little
• 4:11
  bit
• 4:11
  of
• 4:12
  her
• 4:12
  sound.
• 4:13
  So
• 4:13
  it's
• 4:13
  a
• 4:13
  little
• 4:14
  bit
• 4:14
  of
• 4:14
  the
• 4:14
  sound.
• 4:15
  The
• 4:15
  same
• 4:16
  tone,
• 4:16
  the
• 4:17
  same
• 4:17
  pitch.
• 4:25
  Wow.
• 4:27
  Same
• 4:27
  tone,
• 4:28
  same
• 4:28
  pitch.
• 4:29
  Melodyne,
• 4:29
  by
• 4:30
  the
• 4:30
  way,
• 4:30
  won't
• 4:30
  fix
• 4:31
  that
• 4:31
  because
• 4:32
  it's
• 4:32
  in
• 4:32
  tune,
• 4:33
  technically,
• 4:34
  but
• 4:34
  one
• 4:34
  sounds
• 4:35
  like
• 4:35
  it's
• 4:35
  going
• 4:35
  flat
• 4:36
  and
• 4:36
  one
• 4:36
  sounds
• 4:37
  like
• 4:37
  it's
• 4:37
  in
• 4:37
  tune.
• 4:38
  So
• 4:39
  the
• 4:39
  jaw,
• 4:40
  relaxing
• 4:40
  the
• 4:41
  cheeks,
• 4:41
  using
• 4:42
  the
• 4:42
  lips
• 4:43
  and
• 4:43
  really
• 4:44
  eliminating
• 4:44
  the
• 4:45
  tongue,
• 4:45
  trying
• 4:45
  to
• 4:46
  be
• 4:46
  as.
• 4:47
  Almost
• 4:47
  not
• 4:48
  using
• 4:48
  it
• 4:48
  at
• 4:48
  all.
• 4:49
  We
• 4:49
  do
• 4:49
  need
• 4:49
  it
• 4:50
  for
• 4:50
  a
• 4:50
  few
• 4:50
  consonants.
• 4:51
  I
• 4:51
  could
• 4:51
  dive
• 4:51
  into
• 4:52
  all
• 4:52
  of
• 4:52
  that,
• 4:52
  too.
• 4:52
  It's
• 4:53
  very
• 4:53
  in
• 4:53
  depth,
• 4:53
  but.
• 4:54
  And
• 4:55
  vowels.
• 4:55
  But
• 4:55
  for
• 4:55
  the
• 4:55
  most
• 4:56
  part,
• 4:56
  if
• 4:57
  we
• 4:57
  can
• 4:57
  keep
• 4:57
  it
• 4:57
  behind
• 4:58
  our
• 4:58
  bottom
• 4:58
  teeth
• 4:59
  or
• 5:00
  on
• 5:00
  top
• 5:00
  of
• 5:00
  our
• 5:01
  teeth,
• 5:01
  then
• 5:01
  it's
• 5:02
  out
• 5:02
  of
• 5:02
  the
• 5:02
  way.
• 5:02
  Our
• 5:03
  vocal
• 5:03
  cords
• 5:03
  are
• 5:03
  free
• 5:04
  to
• 5:04
  change
• 5:04
  pitch,
• 5:05
  but
• 5:05
  my
• 5:06
  tone
• 5:07
  stays
• 5:07
  forward.
• 5:08
  I'm
• 5:08
  not
• 5:09
  going
• 5:09
  backwards
• 5:10
  and
• 5:10
  forward.
• 5:11
  It
• 5:11
  would
• 5:11
  be
• 5:11
  weird
• 5:12
  if
• 5:12
  I
• 5:12
  did
• 5:13
  that.
• 5:13
  If
• 5:14
  I
• 5:14
  turn
• 5:14
  it
• 5:14
  too
• 5:14
  nasal,
• 5:15
  you
• 5:15
  know,
• 5:15
  if
• 5:15
  I
• 5:15
  scrunch
• 5:16
  up
• 5:16
  my
• 5:16
  cheeks
• 5:17
  and
• 5:17
  I
• 5:17
  go
• 5:17
  too
• 5:18
  forward.
• 5:18
  Well,
• 5:18
  there's
• 5:19
  lots
• 5:19
  of
• 5:19
  singing
• 5:19
  teachers
• 5:20
  who
• 5:20
  teach
• 5:20
  that,
• 5:21
  you
• 5:21
  know,
• 5:22
  and
• 5:22
  it's
• 5:23
  too
• 5:23
  bright,
• 5:23
  it's
• 5:24
  too
• 5:24
  nasal.
• 5:25
  That's
• 5:25
  kind
• 5:25
  of
• 5:25
  ugly
• 5:25
  also.
• 5:26
  So
• 5:26
  we
• 5:26
  want
• 5:27
  to
• 5:27
  find
• 5:27
  this
• 5:27
  natural
• 5:28
  voice
• 5:28
  that's
• 5:28
  a
• 5:29
  little
• 5:29
  bit
• 5:29
  more
• 5:29
  unified.
• 5:30
  Relaxing
• 5:31
  the
• 5:31
  jaw,
• 5:31
  relaxing
• 5:32
  the
• 5:32
  cheeks,
• 5:33
  using
• 5:33
  the
• 5:33
  lips
• 5:34
  and
• 5:34
  eliminating
• 5:34
  the
• 5:34
  tongue.
• 5:35
  Speaking
• 5:35
  of
• 5:36
  mouth
• 5:37
  sizes,
• 5:39
  Freddie
• 5:39
  Mercury
• 5:40
  always
• 5:41
  refused
• 5:41
  to
• 5:41
  get
• 5:41
  his
• 5:41
  teeth
• 5:42
  fixed
• 5:42
  because
• 5:42
  he
• 5:42
  thought,
• 5:43
  he
• 5:43
  swore
• 5:44
  that
• 5:44
  that
• 5:44
  was
• 5:45
  why
• 5:45
  he
• 5:45
  had
• 5:45
  that
• 5:46
  voice.
• 5:46
  Do
• 5:46
  you
• 5:46
  think
• 5:47
  that's
• 5:47
  true?
• 5:47
  Or
• 5:47
  do
• 5:47
  you
• 5:48
  think
• 5:48
  anybody
• 5:48
  with
• 5:48
  any
• 5:49
  mouth
• 5:49
  size
• 5:49
  could
• 5:49
  be
• 5:49
  trained
• 5:50
  to
• 5:51
  sing
• 5:51
  like
• 5:51
  that?
• 5:53
  Any
• 5:54
  mouth
• 5:54
  size
• 5:54
  can
• 5:54
  be
• 5:55
  trained.
• 5:55
  But
• 5:55
  I
• 5:55
  do
• 5:56
  think,
• 5:56
  and
• 5:56
  I've
• 5:56
  seen
• 5:57
  it,
• 5:57
  that
• 5:57
  people
• 5:57
  who
• 5:58
  have
• 5:58
  dental
• 5:59
  work
• 5:59
  Change
• 6:00
  their
• 6:00
  voice
• 6:01
  1,000%.
• 6:03
  And
• 6:03
  I've
• 6:03
  seen
• 6:03
  it
• 6:03
  with
• 6:04
  people,
• 6:04
  again,
• 6:04
  with
• 6:04
  tongue
• 6:05
  issues
• 6:05
  because
• 6:06
  they
• 6:06
  had
• 6:06
  a
• 6:06
  lot
• 6:06
  of
• 6:06
  braces,
• 6:07
  or
• 6:08
  jaw
• 6:08
  issues
• 6:08
  because
• 6:09
  they
• 6:09
  had
• 6:09
  braces.
• 6:10
  So
• 6:10
  it
• 6:11
  told
• 6:11
  the
• 6:11
  brain,
• 6:12
  oh,
• 6:12
  this
• 6:12
  hurts,
• 6:13
  right?
• 6:13
  To
• 6:13
  use
• 6:14
  my
• 6:14
  mouth
• 6:14
  and
• 6:15
  my
• 6:15
  lip
• 6:15
  kind
• 6:16
  of
• 6:16
  hurt,
• 6:16
  so
• 6:17
  I
• 6:17
  stopped
• 6:18
  using
• 6:18
  it
• 6:19
  and
• 6:19
  I.
• 6:20
  Right.
• 6:20
  And
• 6:20
  my
• 6:21
  tongue
• 6:21
  stays
• 6:21
  away
• 6:22
  because
• 6:22
  maybe
• 6:23
  you
• 6:23
  have
• 6:23
  like
• 6:23
  one
• 6:23
  of
• 6:23
  those
• 6:24
  retainers
• 6:24
  with
• 6:24
  a,
• 6:25
  you
• 6:25
  know,
• 6:25
  a
• 6:26
  thing,
• 6:26
  you
• 6:26
  know,
• 6:27
  behind
• 6:27
  your
• 6:27
  teeth.
• 6:28
  So
• 6:28
  it's
• 6:28
  like
• 6:28
  your
• 6:29
  tongue
• 6:29
  doesn't
• 6:29
  want
• 6:29
  to
• 6:30
  touch
• 6:30
  any
• 6:30
  of
• 6:30
  that,
• 6:31
  so
• 6:31
  it
• 6:31
  stays
• 6:31
  here
• 6:32
  and.
• 6:33
  Or
• 6:33
  you
• 6:33
  don't
• 6:33
  want
• 6:34
  to
• 6:34
  use
• 6:35
  your.
• 6:39
  And
• 6:40
  all
• 6:41
  you
• 6:41
  have
• 6:41
  to
• 6:41
  use
• 6:41
  your
• 6:42
  lips
• 6:42
  on
• 6:42
  those
• 6:42
  vowels.
• 6:43
  A
• 6:44
  lot
• 6:44
  of
• 6:44
  people
• 6:44
  don't
• 6:44
  do
• 6:44
  that.
• 6:47
  So
• 6:47
  it's
• 6:47
  a
• 6:47
  psychological
• 6:48
  thing.
• 6:48
  It's
• 6:49
  not
• 6:49
  that
• 6:49
  the
• 6:49
  mouth
• 6:50
  shape
• 6:50
  and
• 6:51
  size
• 6:51
  is
• 6:51
  actually
• 6:51
  hindering,
• 6:53
  for
• 6:53
  the
• 6:53
  most
• 6:54
  part,
• 6:54
  the
• 6:54
  same.
• 6:54
  Okay,
• 6:55
  I
• 6:55
  see.
• 6:56
  But
• 6:57
  it
• 6:57
  could
• 6:57
  it
• 6:57
  change
• 6:57
  your
• 6:58
  voice
• 6:58
  if
• 6:58
  you
• 6:58
  stretched
• 6:59
  your
• 6:59
  jaw
• 6:59
  or.
• 7:01
  So
• 7:01
  you
• 7:01
  think
• 7:01
  if
• 7:02
  Freddie
• 7:02
  Mercury
• 7:02
  had
• 7:03
  those
• 7:03
  teeth,
• 7:04
  those
• 7:04
  molars
• 7:04
  removed
• 7:05
  and
• 7:05
  then
• 7:05
  trained
• 7:06
  with
• 7:06
  you,
• 7:06
  he'd
• 7:06
  be
• 7:06
  back
• 7:07
  with
• 7:07
  the
• 7:07
  same
• 7:07
  voice.
• 7:09
  Okay,
• 7:10
  cool.
• 7:10
  Because
• 7:11
  ultimately
• 7:11
  it
• 7:12
  is
• 7:12
  your
• 7:12
  vocal
• 7:12
  cords
• 7:13
  ability
• 7:13
  to
• 7:13
  coordinate.
• 7:14
  And
• 7:15
  then
• 7:15
  resonation
• 7:16
  does
• 7:16
  happen
• 7:16
  in
• 7:17
  your,
• 7:17
  you
• 7:18
  know,
• 7:18
  your
• 7:18
  jaw,
• 7:18
  your
• 7:19
  nasal
• 7:19
  cavities,
• 7:20
  your
• 7:20
  head.
• 7:22
  So
• 7:22
  unless
• 7:23
  you're
• 7:23
  doing
• 7:23
  some
• 7:23
  kind
• 7:23
  of
• 7:24
  structural
• 7:24
  change,
• 7:25
  it
• 7:25
  shouldn't
• 7:26
  change.
• 7:26
  But
• 7:26
  like
• 7:27
  you
• 7:27
  said,
• 7:27
  it's
• 7:27
  habit
• 7:28
  and
• 7:28
  it's
• 7:28
  the
• 7:28
  brain
• 7:29
  going.
• 7:30
  And
• 7:30
  then
• 7:30
  it
• 7:30
  puts
• 7:30
  all
• 7:30
  this
• 7:31
  tension.
• 7:31
  So
• 7:32
  as
• 7:32
  long
• 7:32
  as
• 7:32
  we
• 7:32
  can
• 7:32
  eliminate
• 7:33
  tension
• 7:33
  and
• 7:33
  strain,
• 7:34
  the
• 7:34
  vocal
• 7:35
  cords
• 7:35
  can
• 7:35
  work
• 7:35
  really,
• 7:36
  really
• 7:36
  well.
• 7:37
  I
• 7:37
  often.
• 7:37
  That's
• 7:38
  why
• 7:38
  I
• 7:38
  was
• 7:38
  saying
• 7:38
  that
• 7:38
  most
• 7:38
  of
• 7:39
  the
• 7:39
  people
• 7:39
  who
• 7:39
  come
• 7:39
  to
• 7:39
  me
• 7:40
  can
• 7:40
  sing
• 7:41
  already.
• 7:41
  Most
• 7:42
  people
• 7:42
  have
• 7:42
  great
• 7:42
  vocal
• 7:43
  cords,
• 7:43
  but
• 7:44
  their,
• 7:44
  their
• 7:44
  head,
• 7:45
  their
• 7:45
  face,
• 7:45
  their
• 7:46
  tension,
• 7:47
  the
• 7:47
  way
• 7:47
  they're
• 7:47
  hitting
• 7:48
  notes
• 7:49
  isn't
• 7:49
  allowing
• 7:50
  that
• 7:50
  natural
• 7:51
  flow
• 7:51
  of
• 7:51
  the
• 7:51
  vocal
• 7:52
  cords
• 7:52
  to
• 7:52
  change
• 7:52
  pitch
• 7:53
  effectively.
• 7:55
  I
• 7:55
  knew
• 7:55
  it.
• 7:56
  The
• 7:56
  word
• 7:57
  lives
• 7:57
  in
• 7:57
  your
• 7:58
  face,
• 7:58
  right?
• 7:58
  The
• 7:58
  word
• 7:59
  lives
• 8:00
  here.
• 8:00
  Pitch
• 8:01
  lives
• 8:01
  here.
• 8:01
  Sounds
• 8:01
  like
• 8:01
  a
• 8:01
  T
• 8:02
  shirt
• 8:02
  tone.
• 8:03
  Lives
• 8:03
  here.
• 8:03
  Pitch
• 8:04
  lives
• 8:04
  here.
• 8:05
  So
• 8:06
  we
• 8:06
  want
• 8:06
  those
• 8:06
  two
• 8:07
  things
• 8:07
  to
• 8:07
  work
• 8:07
  together.
• 8:08
  Not
• 8:09
  fighting
• 8:09
  each
• 8:09
  other.
• 8:10
  Not
• 8:10
  fighting
• 8:10
  each
• 8:10
  other.
• 8:11
  You
• 8:11
  know,
• 8:11
  how
• 8:11
  many
• 8:12
  singers
• 8:12
  have
• 8:12
  you
• 8:12
  seen
• 8:12
  who
• 8:13
  are,
• 8:13
  you
• 8:13
  know,
• 8:14
  you
• 8:14
  know,
• 8:15
  doing
• 8:15
  all
• 8:15
  these
• 8:16
  things
• 8:16
  with
• 8:16
  their
• 8:16
  face?
• 8:17
  And
• 8:17
  some
• 8:18
  people
• 8:18
  can
• 8:18
  get
• 8:18
  away
• 8:18
  with
• 8:19
  it.
• 8:19
  I
• 8:19
  always
• 8:19
  say,
• 8:19
  like,
• 8:19
  there's
• 8:20
  no
• 8:20
  rules.
• 8:20
  If
• 8:20
  it
• 8:21
  works
• 8:21
  for
• 8:21
  you,
• 8:22
  great.
• 8:22
  There's
• 8:23
  no
• 8:23
  rules
• 8:25
  whatever.
• 8:26
  Like
• 8:27
  it
• 8:28
  were
• 8:28
  even
• 8:28
  a
• 8:28
  raspy
• 8:29
  voice,
• 8:29
  for
• 8:29
  example,
• 8:30
  what
• 8:30
  about
• 8:30
  Bryan
• 8:30
  Adams?
• 8:31
  Like,
• 8:31
  one
• 8:31
  of
• 8:31
  the
• 8:31
  best
• 8:32
  raspy
• 8:33
  voices
• 8:33
  on
• 8:33
  the
• 8:34
  planet.
• 8:34
  He
• 8:35
  tours
• 8:35
  200
• 8:36
  plus
• 8:36
  dates
• 8:37
  a
• 8:37
  year,
• 8:38
  never
• 8:38
  loses
• 8:39
  his
• 8:39
  voice.
• 8:40
  I
• 8:41
  don't
• 8:41
  know
• 8:41
  how
• 8:41
  we
• 8:41
  can
• 8:41
  do
• 8:42
  that.
• 8:42
  Like
• 8:42
  that's
• 8:42
  a
• 8:42
  miracle
• 8:43
  to
• 8:43
  me.
• 8:44
  So
• 8:44
  is
• 8:44
  there
• 8:44
  a.
• 8:45
  That's
• 8:45
  why
• 8:45
  I
• 8:45
  don't
• 8:45
  teach
• 8:45
  technically.
• 8:46
  Once
• 8:46
  I
• 8:46
  started
• 8:47
  working
• 8:47
  with
• 8:47
  artists,
• 8:48
  I
• 8:48
  realized
• 8:49
  that
• 8:50
  it
• 8:50
  doesn't
• 8:51
  matter
• 8:51
  what
• 8:52
  you're
• 8:52
  doing.
• 8:52
  What
• 8:53
  matters
• 8:53
  is
• 8:53
  that
• 8:53
  you
• 8:54
  can
• 8:54
  do
• 8:54
  it
• 8:54
  again
• 8:55
  and
• 8:55
  again
• 8:55
  and
• 8:56
  again
• 8:56
  and
• 8:56
  again.
• 8:57
  And
• 8:57
  so
• 8:57
  whether
• 8:58
  you're
• 8:58
  in
• 8:58
  the
• 8:58
  studio
• 8:59
  and
• 8:59
  you're
• 8:59
  layering
• 9:00
  vocals,
• 9:00
  you
• 9:01
  need
• 9:01
  to
• 9:01
  know
• 9:01
  you
• 9:01
  can
• 9:01
  do
• 9:02
  that
• 9:02
  hard
• 9:02
  for
• 9:03
  two
• 9:03
  hours
• 9:03
  and
• 9:04
  get
• 9:04
  a
• 9:05
  really
• 9:05
  great
• 9:05
  vocal
• 9:05
  performance
• 9:06
  and
• 9:06
  you're
• 9:06
  not
• 9:07
  going
• 9:07
  to
• 9:07
  lose
• 9:07
  your
• 9:07
  voice
• 9:08
  or
• 9:08
  you're
• 9:08
  going
• 9:08
  to
• 9:08
  be
• 9:08
  able
• 9:09
  to
• 9:09
  go
• 9:09
  on
• 9:09
  tour,
• 9:09
  stand
• 9:10
  on
• 9:10
  a
• 9:10
  stage
• 9:10
  and
• 9:11
  deliver.
• 9:11
  No
• 9:11
  matter,
• 9:12
  matter.
• 9:12
  Like
• 9:12
  you
• 9:12
  said,
• 9:12
  Matt,
• 9:13
  morning,
• 9:13
  noon,
• 9:13
  or
• 9:13
  night.
• 9:14
  Can
• 9:14
  I
• 9:14
  use
• 9:15
  my
• 9:15
  voice
• 9:15
  in
• 9:15
  the
• 9:15
  morning?
• 9:15
  Because
• 9:16
  what
• 9:16
  if
• 9:16
  you're
• 9:16
  traveling,
• 9:17
  you're
• 9:17
  jet
• 9:17
  lagged,
• 9:18
  you
• 9:18
  know,
• 9:18
  you
• 9:18
  have
• 9:18
  to
• 9:18
  wake
• 9:19
  up
• 9:19
  and
• 9:19
  give
• 9:19
  an
• 9:19
  interview
• 9:20
  at
• 9:20
  6
• 9:20
  in
• 9:20
  the
• 9:21
  morning
• 9:21
  or
• 9:21
  whatever.
• 9:22
  Whatever.
• 9:22
  Whatever
• 9:22
  the
• 9:23
  circumstances
• 9:24
  are,
• 9:24
  an
• 9:24
  artist
• 9:25
  must
• 9:26
  be
• 9:26
  able
• 9:26
  to
• 9:26
  do
• 9:27
  this
• 9:27
  anytime,
• 9:28
  anywhere.
• 9:29
  So
• 9:30
  how
• 9:30
  you
• 9:31
  do
• 9:31
  it
• 9:31
  is
• 9:31
  irrelevant.
• 9:32
  As
• 9:32
  long
• 9:32
  as
• 9:32
  you
• 9:33
  can
• 9:33
  do
• 9:33
  it
• 9:34
  consistently.
• 9:35
  Right.
• 9:36
  That's
• 9:36
  not.
• 9:36
  My
• 9:36
  job
• 9:37
  is
• 9:37
  to
• 9:37
  tell
• 9:37
  you
• 9:38
  you
• 9:38
  have
• 9:38
  to
• 9:38
  do
• 9:39
  it.
• 9:39
  But
• 9:39
  if
• 9:39
  Anthony,
• 9:40
  you
• 9:40
  came
• 9:40
  in
• 9:40
  like
• 9:41
  you
• 9:41
  said,
• 9:41
  and
• 9:41
  I
• 9:41
  want
• 9:42
  to
• 9:42
  sing
• 9:42
  with
• 9:43
  more
• 9:43
  riffs,
• 9:43
  I
• 9:44
  can
• 9:44
  tell
• 9:44
  you
• 9:44
  why
• 9:44
  you
• 9:44
  can't.
• 9:45
  Because
• 9:46
  the
• 9:46
  sound
• 9:46
  is
• 9:47
  too
• 9:47
  tight
• 9:47
  and
• 9:47
  the
• 9:48
  tongue
• 9:48
  is
• 9:48
  too
• 9:48
  tight.
• 9:49
  So
• 9:49
  then
• 9:49
  you
• 9:50
  can't
• 9:50
  get
• 9:50
  your
• 9:50
  voice
• 9:51
  to
• 9:51
  flutter
• 9:52
  or
• 9:52
  to
• 9:52
  move
• 9:52
  quickly.
• 9:54
  So
• 9:54
  there
• 9:55
  are
• 9:55
  limitations.
• 9:56
  So
• 9:56
  then
• 9:56
  it's
• 9:56
  about
• 9:56
  the
• 9:57
  want.
• 9:57
  What
• 9:57
  does
• 9:58
  the
• 9:58
  artist
• 9:59
  want?
• 9:59
  I
• 9:59
  told
• 9:59
  you
• 10:00
  earlier,
• 10:00
  my
• 10:00
  job
• 10:00
  is
• 10:00
  to
• 10:01
  only
• 10:01
  facilitate
• 10:02
  what
• 10:02
  the
• 10:03
  artist
• 10:03
  wants.
• 10:03
  You're
• 10:04
  not
• 10:04
  doing
• 10:04
  my
• 10:04
  technique.
• 10:05
  I'm
• 10:05
  helping
• 10:06
  you
• 10:06
  achieve
• 10:07
  your
• 10:07
  goals.
• 10:08
  And
• 10:08
  that's
• 10:09
  ultimately
• 10:09
  why
• 10:09
  I
• 10:10
  think
• 10:11
  people
• 10:11
  like
• 10:12
  to
• 10:12
  work
• 10:12
  with
• 10:12
  me.
• 10:12
  Because
• 10:12
  I'm
• 10:13
  not
• 10:13
  asking
• 10:13
  you
• 10:13
  to
• 10:13
  live
• 10:13
  in
• 10:14
  a
• 10:14
  box.
• 10:15
  I
• 10:16
  love
• 10:16
  that.
• 10:17
  Just
• 10:17
  to
• 10:17
  clarify,
• 10:18
  I.
• 10:18
  I
• 10:18
  mean,
• 10:18
  I
• 10:19
  love
• 10:19
  to
• 10:19
  riff.
• 10:19
  It's
• 10:19
  not
• 10:20
  on
• 10:20
  my
• 10:21
  list
• 10:21
  of
• 10:21
  goals.
• 10:22
  And
• 10:22
  more
• 10:22
  concerned
• 10:23
  with
• 10:23
  just
• 10:23
  having
• 10:23
  that.
• 10:24
  No,
• 10:24
  this
• 10:24
  is
• 10:24
  happening.
• 10:25
  Anthony's
• 10:25
  riffing
• 10:26
  in.
• 10:26
  In.
• 10:27
  He
• 10:27
  has
• 10:28
  four
• 10:28
  weeks
• 10:28
  to
• 10:28
  riff
• 10:29
  and
• 10:29
  then
• 10:29
  we're
• 10:29
  recording
• 10:30
  your
• 10:30
  riffing.
• 10:30
  Okay.
• 10:30
  Okay.
• 10:31
  That's
• 10:31
  a
• 10:31
  good
• 10:31
  no
• 10:32
  because
• 10:32
  you're
• 10:32
  going
• 10:32
  to
• 10:32
  come
• 10:33
  on
• 10:33
  to
• 10:33
  my
• 10:33
  riff
• 10:34
  class
• 10:34
  and
• 10:34
  we're
• 10:34
  going
• 10:34
  to
• 10:35
  get
• 10:35
  you.
• 10:35
  Oh,
• 10:35
  I
• 10:35
  thought
• 10:35
  I
• 10:35
  was
• 10:36
  just
• 10:36
  going
• 10:36
  to
• 10:36
  work
• 10:36
  on
• 10:37
  this.
• 10:37
  Okay,
• 10:38
  well,
• 10:38
  I'll
• 10:38
  riff.
• 10:38
  If
• 10:39
  you
• 10:39
  got
• 10:39
  me
• 10:39
  riffing,
• 10:39
  I
• 10:40
  will
• 10:40
  be
• 10:40
  more
• 10:40
  than
• 10:40
  grateful.
• 10:41
  How
• 10:42
  long
• 10:42
  does
• 10:42
  it
• 10:42
  typically
• 10:43
  take
• 10:43
  before
• 10:43
  you
• 10:43
  start
• 10:43
  to
• 10:44
  see
• 10:44
  changes?
• 10:44
  I
• 10:44
  mean,
• 10:45
  it
• 10:45
  probably
• 10:45
  depends
• 10:45
  on
• 10:46
  someone's
• 10:46
  level.
• 10:46
  Immediately.
• 10:47
  Okay,
• 10:47
  never
• 10:47
  mind
• 10:48
  immediately.
• 10:49
  Well,
• 10:49
  then
• 10:49
  I'm
• 10:49
  excited.
• 10:50
  That's
• 10:50
  really
• 10:51
  exciting.
• 10:51
  Yeah.
• 10:52
  My
• 10:52
  goal
• 10:52
  is
• 10:52
  immediate
• 10:53
  results.
• 10:53
  Right.
• 10:54
  Like,
• 10:54
  you
• 10:54
  know,
• 10:54
  a.
• 10:55
  I
• 10:55
  charge
• 10:55
  a
• 10:55
  lot
• 10:56
  of
• 10:56
  money
• 10:56
  for
• 10:56
  my
• 10:56
  time.
• 10:57
  And
• 10:57
  I
• 10:57
  want
• 10:57
  you
• 10:58
  to
• 10:58
  get
• 10:58
  something
• 10:59
  right
• 10:59
  now.
• 10:59
  I
• 10:59
  don't
• 11:00
  need
• 11:00
  you
• 11:00
  to
• 11:00
  wait
• 11:01
  a
• 11:01
  month.
• 11:01
  I
• 11:01
  want
• 11:01
  you
• 11:02
  to
• 11:02
  get
• 11:02
  something
• 11:02
  right
• 11:03
  now
• 11:03
  that
• 11:03
  you
• 11:03
  can.
• 11:04
  Psychologists
• 11:05
  should
• 11:05
  have
• 11:05
  the
• 11:07
  same
• 11:08
  way
• 11:08
  of
• 11:08
  working.
• 11:10
  Progress
• 11:11
  guarantee.
• 11:12
  Here's
• 11:12
  another
• 11:12
  philosophy.
• 11:14
  Progress
• 11:15
  guaranteed.
• 11:15
  So
• 11:16
  I've
• 11:16
  worked
• 11:16
  with
• 11:16
  Scott
• 11:17
  Hellman.
• 11:17
  I've
• 11:17
  worked
• 11:17
  with
• 11:18
  a
• 11:18
  lot
• 11:18
  of
• 11:18
  Canadian
• 11:19
  artists
• 11:19
  that
• 11:19
  have
• 11:19
  done
• 11:20
  really,
• 11:20
  really
• 11:20
  well.
• 11:21
  And
• 11:21
  my.
• 11:22
  It
• 11:22
  really
• 11:22
  occurred
• 11:23
  to
• 11:23
  me
• 11:23
  after
• 11:23
  working
• 11:23
  with
• 11:24
  him
• 11:24
  at
• 11:24
  the
• 11:24
  beginning
• 11:24
  of
• 11:24
  his
• 11:25
  career
• 11:25
  that
• 11:25
  if
• 11:26
  I
• 11:26
  do
• 11:26
  my
• 11:26
  job
• 11:27
  right,
• 11:28
  you
• 11:28
  don't
• 11:28
  need
• 11:28
  me
• 11:29
  anymore.
• 11:30
  Wow.
• 11:30
  That's
• 11:31
  really
• 11:31
  the
• 11:31
  goal.
• 11:32
  If
• 11:32
  I've
• 11:32
  done
• 11:32
  my
• 11:32
  job
• 11:33
  well,
• 11:33
  you
• 11:34
  don't
• 11:34
  need
• 11:34
  me.
• 11:35
  But
• 11:35
  I
• 11:36
  have
• 11:36
  relationships,
• 11:37
  I
• 11:37
  told
• 11:37
  you
• 11:37
  with
• 11:37
  many
• 11:38
  of
• 11:38
  my
• 11:38
  artists
• 11:38
  that
• 11:38
  they.
• 11:39
  They
• 11:39
  return
• 11:40
  for
• 11:41
  one
• 11:41
  or
• 11:42
  two
• 11:42
  coaching,
• 11:42
  maybe
• 11:42
  if
• 11:43
  they're.
• 11:43
  I
• 11:43
  just
• 11:43
  worked
• 11:43
  with
• 11:44
  Roy
• 11:44
  a
• 11:44
  couple
• 11:44
  weeks
• 11:45
  ago.
• 11:45
  He's
• 11:45
  back
• 11:45
  in
• 11:45
  the
• 11:46
  studio.
• 11:46
  So
• 11:47
  we
• 11:47
  were
• 11:47
  working
• 11:48
  ahead
• 11:48
  of
• 11:48
  each
• 11:49
  studio
• 11:49
  session.
• 11:50
  And
• 11:51
  then
• 11:51
  I
• 11:51
  might
• 11:51
  not
• 11:51
  work
• 11:52
  with
• 11:52
  Roy
• 11:52
  woods
• 11:53
  for,
• 11:53
  you
• 11:53
  know,
• 11:53
  two
• 11:54
  years,
• 11:54
  and
• 11:54
  then
• 11:55
  maybe
• 11:55
  they
• 11:55
  come
• 11:55
  back,
• 11:55
  you
• 11:55
  know,
• 11:56
  a
• 11:56
  year
• 11:56
  later
• 11:56
  or
• 11:57
  six
• 11:57
  months
• 11:57
  later
• 11:57
  or
• 11:58
  whatever.
• 11:58
  Hey,
• 11:58
  I'm
• 11:59
  working
• 11:59
  on
• 11:59
  something
• 11:59
  else.
• 11:59
  Or
• 11:59
  I'm
• 12:00
  working
• 12:00
  on
• 12:00
  a
• 12:00
  performance
• 12:01
  now.
• 12:01
  Let's
• 12:02
  do
• 12:02
  it.
• 12:02
  So
• 12:02
  my
• 12:03
  relationship
• 12:03
  with
• 12:03
  artists
• 12:04
  is
• 12:04
  long,
• 12:05
  but
• 12:05
  not
• 12:05
  weekly.
• 12:06
  I
• 12:06
  don't
• 12:07
  require
• 12:07
  that.
• 12:07
  That's
• 12:08
  just
• 12:08
  not
• 12:08
  my
• 12:08
  business.
• 12:09
  Again,
• 12:09
  that's
• 12:09
  someone
• 12:10
  else's
• 12:10
  coaching
• 12:11
  business.
• 12:11
  But
• 12:12
  my
• 12:12
  coaching
• 12:12
  business
• 12:13
  is
• 12:13
  built
• 12:13
  on
• 12:14
  getting
• 12:14
  results,
• 12:15
  right?
