Maybe a little entertainment while we wait?



Johnny Cash version of Sting's I hung my head played on Mandocello and cello. This is unmixed except for some volume. I think i need to isolate the vocals a bit more. Thoughts?

Thanks for the feedback, I recorded it mainly out of boredom. I've been working on my voice relentlessly for a while, but haven't really made any progress. I record myself and listen back, sing along to scales, took lessons until they became too expensive. I have a naturally low voice too which doesn't help, especially for pop tunes. I really want to sing, I just don't get how to do it. I'll keep practicing, no idea if I'll ever actually get it though.

Guitar is Am7-Fmaj7#11-Cmaj7 for the verse (instead of Am, F, C).
Am7-Fmaj7#11-Cmaj7-G for the chorus (instead of Am, F, C, G).
It's an awesome chord progression, I was hoping it's airiness would make my voice 'fit' in more.

Life's tough for the deep voiced musician who just wants to cover some maroon 5 (I'm in the same boat). I've found a pretty cool niche with 20th century Irish folk tunes. The best advice I would give myself if I could go back in time is "accept your vocal range. Don't try to learn to sing on songs out of your range.".

If that's too high do it in a different key.
