  1. 0:00hey Spencer well cheer and today we're
  2. 0:02gonna talk about head voice so what is
  3. 0:12head voice well in our last video we
  4. 0:15spoke about chest voice which is the
  5. 0:18lower region or range of your voice
  6. 0:21which means that head voice is the very
  7. 0:24opposite it's the upper region or range
  8. 0:27of your voice where you probably don't
  9. 0:30speak head voice gets its name because
  10. 0:32it can often feel like the sympathetic
  11. 0:35vibrations lift up into your head as you
  12. 0:38sing in those ranges as I do that I feel
  13. 0:45the vibrations move from my chest all
  14. 0:47the way up into my head as I move from
  15. 0:50chest voice to head voice now remember
  16. 0:53don't get a complex about this this is
  17. 0:56somewhat subjective and so don't worry
  18. 0:59if you don't feel it exactly the way
  19. 1:01that I do how do we find head voice
  20. 1:04number one pick a high-pitch humming or
  21. 1:11whimper it like a puppy dog number two
  22. 1:13pick a closed vowel like an O or an E
  23. 1:18something that shuts your mouth down a
  24. 1:20bit ooh number three pick a quieter
  25. 1:25volume don't belt this sucker gently
  26. 1:28like this oh if you make this sound like
  27. 1:34an owl hooting with a high pitch a
  28. 1:36closed vowel a quieter volume that is
  29. 1:40your head voice my friends now some of
  30. 1:43you may be saying Spencer what you're
  31. 1:45calling head voice sounds an awful lot
  32. 1:47to me like falsetto and you know what
  33. 1:50you would be right what do head voice
  34. 1:53and falsetto have in common well they
  35. 1:56both tend to happen in the upper range
  36. 1:58of our
  37. 1:59so falsetto oh and head voice ah ah in
  38. 2:07both cases I know I'm not in my chest
  39. 2:10voice
  40. 2:10number two in both cases singers tend to
  41. 2:14feel more sympathetic vibrations in the
  42. 2:17head not in the chest
  43. 2:19so falsetto oh definitely heavier also
  44. 2:27heavier in the sensation now what's the
  45. 2:30difference falsetto is the lightest
  46. 2:33possible sound a human being can make
  47. 2:35the muscles inside the vocal cords do
  48. 2:38not contract and so therefore just the
  49. 2:41top edge of the vocal fold starts to
  50. 2:44come together vocal fold vocal chords
  51. 2:46it's the same thing in head voice those
  52. 2:50muscles inside the vocal folds or vocal
  53. 2:53cords start to contract and so therefore
  54. 2:56we start to get a bit more contact
  55. 2:59between the vocal folds and so a fuller
  56. 3:02more complex sound so instead of
  57. 3:08falsetto OH
  58. 3:12falsetto is gonna produce a sound that's
  59. 3:14very hollow a sine wave like oh this is
  60. 3:19a test of the emergency Network what is
  61. 3:23that head voice is deeper than falsetto
  62. 3:27it's richer and fuller than falsetto but
  63. 3:31it tends to be lighter than chest voice
  64. 3:34what this means is that head voice is
  65. 3:37able to connect with your chest voice
  66. 3:40when you move from your chest voice the
  67. 3:43lower range where you tend to speak to
  68. 3:45falsetto
  69. 3:46you are probably gonna get a yodel oh
  70. 3:49and we call that a great chest voice
  71. 3:55falsetto however when you move from
  72. 3:58chest voice to head voice you can do
  73. 4:01that without a break chest voice ah head
  74. 4:06boys ah back to chest voice without
  75. 4:11there being a break without there being
  76. 4:12and uh so as you're singing a song if
  77. 4:18you want it to sound like a similar
  78. 4:20color from the bottom to the top you
  79. 4:22want it to sound like your natural voice
  80. 4:24ah ma ma ma ma ma ma ma ma mom's you
  81. 4:31will need to develop your head voice
  82. 4:33where as if for a special effect yeah
  83. 4:37you want it to yodel you want it to
  84. 4:39break on purpose then use falsetto so in
  85. 4:42another video we're gonna talk about how
