Hey! I am Mark Black and welcome to expertvillage.com. We are going to be talking about vocal performance. Whenever you are supporting a note, I want you to imagine notes are not arrows but they are missiles, when we sing a note, we tend to think it like an arrow, the arrow you work at the beginning, the thing you let it go and it just falls, so that means we tend to go, “I have been waiting for a girl like you,” and it is like the line, the phrase, the group of notes just falling and decaying as it goes through the list of eight notes whatever it is. But instead we want it to be like a cruise missile, which has power all way to the very last second it crashes into its thing. So when you sing, I would like you to think like a cruise missile so you are going, “I have been waiting for a girl like you,” I am trying to push all way to the end, now I made that just a little bit long in my desire to push, I am not trying to get you do longer notes and try to get support to the end; breath support.
