The biggest reason mixed voice is worth it in the end

We see lip-synced, pitch corrected, Frankenstein-ed covers all the time. Can you know how many takes they did for that specific vocal line? In what seems to be an Instagramed version of the reality of singing, you might be holding yourself to unrealistic expectations and standards.

We might assume if they got the money-shot once, then they can always get it. Who knows? Yes, even the best singers have off days. But I'm pointing at the fact that a heavily lip-synced or edited cover means they couldn't even get through it once. That's it. It is multiple performances or attempts put into one.

How stressful does that sound? You might feel falsetto is a little goofy in the beginning but you're building a solid foundation that will never let you down. You will be able to do stuff live they can't even do in 30 takes. Keep at it.

man the Frankenstein-ed covers are the worst! imagine doing 50 takes and still using pitch correction to sound even more accurate than the original song 

what I hate is most don't realize this and praise these clowns in the comments 

take for instance those singing in the kitchen videos (apparently the best acoustically treated kitchens in the world with the best phone mics that sound like u87s) all pitch corrected to a grid 

and you'll find people in the comments praising them like it's a one in a billion voice 😭 😭 😭 😭 

the problem is this creates impossible standards, no one in the world can sing this perfectly in tune and honestly it's a bit lifeless and sounds bad especially in harmonies where they sound thin and fake almost like a synth
