If you can SingMog, you will be irresistible

LOL, I tried to do "More Than a Feeling" just a few weeks ago, and it turned out terrible (it was a slow night, so I got a bit experimental with my repertoire, LOL).

I don't remember ever taking a shot at that song. I should challenge myself on that one some day. Some of the songs I've pulled off successfully are Amanda by Boston, Dream On by Aerosmith, I Believe In A Thing Called Love by The Darkness, Livin' on a Prayer by Bon Jovi, We All Die Young by Steel Dragon, just to name a few. All those songs are pretty fvcking difficult to sing. When you're approaching the high notes, people are on the edge of their seat waiting to see if you fall flat on your face or if you nail the fvck out of it. If you nail it, you'll get free drinks and attention from women who will shortly be headed to the bathroom to wring out their soggy panties.

This chick commentator is practically having an orgasm listening to Brad Delp's voice. Notice that she makes good comments about the other band members, with the exception of the JesterMaxxing bassist, who obviously realizes that he is the weakest member of the group, and therefore has to flail around.

The baritone

or even the basso

is a stronger bet than the tenor, much as I admire Boston

You can't get away with singing high unless you look like Barry Gibb

Go outside and talk to people.

Jesus.

Sing character notes like those preppy boys from The Association

There's absolutely nothing wrong with using one of your strengths to own the hell out of the room. If you enter a karaoke joint with a bunch of hacks taking their turn at the microphone and you take the stage like a fvcking rock star, EVERYBODY is going to notice you as if you ARE a rock star.

Very few people can sing well enough to be treated like a rock star at karaoke night.

But everybody can get outside and talk to people.

For most normal dudes, singing well is simply not in the cards, but getting outside and talking to people is something anybody can do.

True tenors are relatively rare https://www.npr.org/sections/decept...73/talk-like-an-opera-geek-tuning-into-tenors

They wouldn't be as venerated otherwise

One's target demographic matters here also: The high pitched and androgynous act goes over extremely well with teeny boppers... Think J. Timberlake and DiCaprio. That sh-t has a relatively short shelf life though

Correct. But when you can do BOTH you're gonna slay. I know it's not for everyone, but I'm gonna have no problem working karaoke and open mic venues. When I can sing Janis fvcking Joplin better than every other female singer and then get approached, those conversations lead to a lay. I can approach, but I'm gonna have better chances when I've already been noticed. It's like peacocking without the stupid clothes.

Even if one isn't much of a singer, developing a lower voice only benefits a fella https://www.reddit.com/r/DarkRomance/comments/1anq50i ("Like everyone else and their mom, I listened to Butcher & Blackbird and had my panties f-cking burned off by Joe Arden")

Just speaking https://soundcloud.com/enchantressbb%2Faudiobook-lovin-2020-shane-east-meets-with-guest-joe-arden then becomes an advantage
