I take every gif I watch (which is A LOT) with a humongous grain of salt. But I don't let that grain of salt get into my eye and blind me to whatever truth can be found in what I'm watching. He is not any worse than any other poster here, and the people who claim he is just don't know what they're talking about. The demonization has gotten ridiculously out of hand.

if you say so, but i wouldn't call singing that low note so flat "musical expression"TrippingBilly wrote:By the way, that "wavering" as you so call it, Josh, is called musical expression. Maybe if you'd been singing since age 4 you'd know what it is.
and i believe the term you were looking for is vibrato, which is not what you were doing

edit: guitar seemed a little weak, and the vocals were flat at some places
yea, it's kind of funny that you guys come here to be assholes when 10 people post/day that suck hard core. it was a good cover, not perfect, but better than 90% of the crap that's posted here.
and i was under the impression that we were here for constructive criticism, not "her voice doesn't waver this much" asshole criticism.
just my 2 cents.

I thought it was nicely done. The guitar could have been a bit louder, but since the voice sounded great, it doesn't really matter..
I did cover of ALD a while ago, but I'm not gonna post to humble myself lol

I enjoyed it, Liz.
Praise: You have a very good voice. Very playful. You keep the listener interested. Pleasant strumming and good rhythm.
Hopefully constructive criticism: I think at points your voice sounds a bit nasally, particularly on the higher notes. I found this song to be pretty repetitive, but you didn't write it. Still enjoyable. I think I heard a few dead notes on the guitar, but very few. I have to disagree with previous comments regarding the level of the guitar; I thought it was just about right.
Overall, great job and I'd love to hear more from you.

Wow, good job dude. Do you play out at all? I think you definently should.
"and now it's just another lonely day hey heeey" maybe try a falsetto there? I dunno, something to try.
I think you have a great voice, but maybe i'm just not as smart as the other people on this board...
take constructive critism to make yourself better, and if it isn't constructive tell them to fuck off.
oh yeah, and you're totally better looking than that silverman chick.
