JAMES MENY: All right. So the scale is real simple. Let's go down to here and go, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm. So you can hum saying H or say the word he and close your lips and just say it at the same place going he. That's a hum. Or you can say it on NG. And check this. So you're going to keep your finger there and you're going to monitor that it does not move. Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm. And then if that works, you go up. Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm. Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm. What I find in my teaching is that whether you're a beginner or you've been singing for thirty years and you're a famous blues singer and you've been taking lessons for twenty years, that this is probably going to move on you or stiffen. And that's the reason you're probably in the room with me taking a lesson, because you can't figure out why your voice is going hoarse or why you've lost your range. And it's really all because you're carrying too much luggage, too much baggage under your, into your singing.
