I know one non urban legend of singing. If you drink pop your going to have a harder time trying to get notes. Its because the sugar gums everything up.

But on another note, did you know eating a banana before you go on stage will settle your stomach so you don't hurl  :yum:  :drool:

What can i say, i am full of usefull-less knowledge today :dancin:

Ok, I'm late getting to this post...what can I say, I'm a slow reader....but I would like to talk about an urban legend that was purported (is that even a word?) by THIS SITE!!

I was told a long time ago that I could sing higher notes by wearing tight leather biker pants.  Well I wore those pants...and it didn't work...so I was told to buy smaller pants....and they still didn't work.  So I tied chains around my crotch to make the pants tighter, and aside from a slightly higher registered scream of pain, my top note remained as is.  I then could not return my leather pants, because it turns out they are a "no refund" item.  So the next idea from this lovely site was to let my brother kick me in the nads, while I was wearing my chained, child size leather pants....no dice.

Now, if I never can have children, I blame SS and it's members.  THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH....

BTW, my top note still has not changed!!  Damn you!!

Much love to all,
Jason

I found the "no dice" particularly amusing, myself.  I say that quite a bit  :swg:

And, if you take a couple of Lomatil before you go on stage, you won't have a freak attack of stage-fright 'runs' to the bathroom  :shock:  :shock:

(trust me.. i know)

There's been discussion here before about singing...but I wanted to take a different approach and bring out the "Urban Legends" of singing....things that are not true but you might think are....for example, drink water to coat your vocal chords before singing and between songs to keep them moist....Uh Uh....any water hits your chords and you've got water goin' down the wrong pipe...result is massive coughing...not coating...

I know a few others but I'd like to see what the experts have to say...that is...everyone in Singers Showcase...

Russ


The water does soothe your throat, however....that's usually what most people mean.

Recently I heard some people claim that smoking improved their singing, but they were just trying to defend their filthy habit  LOL

Smoking certainly won't improve a person's singing.. but it WILL give some 'rasp' to a voice, which of course is actually caused by damage to the vocal chords. I've been tempted to try that route, but I've always resisted. Of course eventually, heavy smoking and other abusive habits to one's body, will result in permanent severe damage to the vocal chords and other various body parts. ;)
