CIDian Idol Contest 2013 - Entry Discussion Thread !!! - Page 34

Entry 1 - You have a beautiful voice...!! <3 Your voice is so feminine and thin... I can hear it forever... And I must commend your recording quality!!! I really admire the quality of your notes... I can see you have strained yourself for every note, and brought each one out so clearly...!! For me, your voice and clarity of notes makes you the clear winner... Great job!

Entry 2 - You have sung well, though the song you have chosen may prove difficult for even a professional singer. The problem with the song is that it is not so bound by beats, which is why you have got a little confused at times. Your voice is nice though, and with some training you can be a fine singer...

Entry 3 - Very well sung! The ease with which you handle notes and harkats is amazing dear! You have almost exactly reproduced the original song...!! But what I do notice is that in the 2nd paragraph, your scale has changed abruptly, and there are some minor fallbacks in your sur... But overall great effort!

Entry 4 - Great work! You have sung one of my favourite songs by Lata di, and I wouldn't have forgiven you if you did a bad job of it.. :D And doing such a song without karaoke is indeed something! Yes, there are a few places where you have slightly slipped from the original sur... But yaar, Lata di jaise to koi gaa nahi sakta, so what you have done is superb!!! Excellent!!!

Entry 5 - Wonderful to the ear! I love the song, it is really soothing...! And I must say you are superb guitar player!!! Just note that at some points your guitar shadows your own voice, which makes it a little tough to evaluate. But, your voice suits the song very well since you are able to effortlessly make your voice flow with the song... Overall, great job!

Entry 6 - Your voice is really mature and I appreciate that! The only thing I have to say is that you could work a little on clarity of notes, because this is what actually determines the quality of a song... But still, great effort!!

Entry 7 - Your start is impressive, but as the song progresses, you slightly lose track of the taal... I think this is because you have not used karaoke... Your voice is clear... So overall good...

Entry 8 - Great job, bro! I think the way you put emotions into the song steals the show! You have done a remarkable job of controlling your voice and it is really sweet to listen to...!! Great!

Entry 9 - Well sung, and I love your voice... But note that at times, your voice gets too piercing, especially at high notes... If you could fix that, you can be a superb singer!

Entry 10 - This is one of the classic songs of Lata di, and impossible to reproduce... You have done a good job, though there is one spot where you have sped up... Also the recording rubs off your higher notes...

Entry 11 - You have rendered this classic song very well!! The best part is your clear, thin, high- pitched voice which is in some funny way well suited for this song!! So great job!!!

Entry 12 - Well sung! The song is really very tough and you have put in good efforts! You missed the sur in 1 or 2 places, but you got back on track! So, overall, I will say you have done very well!

Entry 13 - Awesome!!! I was in a different world throughout the course of this song! Are you a trained classical singer? Whatever you are, you deserve to be a professional singer! Your voice is striking in a very different way, very siimilar to Qawalli or traditional ghazali...Great job!

Entry 14 - Superb! You have a clean voice and a certain understanding of music! You have had a mild problem balancing the tune and taal at places, but I attribute it entirely to your not using karaoke... So, overall, great job!

Entry 15 - Hmm, you have sung well, though your notes tend to get over sharp at certain instances... If you can avoid that, your singing will drastically improve... Also, your lyrics are not too clear... I am not sure whether this is because of the recording... But overall, nice attempt!
