The Beatles – Let It Be – Week 4 – Final Recording

by Jesse Michelsen on April 1, 2011

Well, as much as I love this song, I don’t think I can pull it off after only 2 voice lessons. I got the piano playing down but my voice just isn’t experienced enough to transition between the different octaves smooth enough. I’m working on extending my range and smoothing the transition from Modal to Falsetto voice but it will take some time. Thankfully, the results of the vote to decide on my next song has returned another Billy Joel piece. His vocal range is a lot closer to my own so it will be easier to get that down.

But no matter how bad this sounds, it’s part of the challenge so here it is!

YOUR SO CUTE! I loved this. Why didn’t you just transpose it down into your key? It is pretty high for a bass. You need to sing this with Josh. He is an awesome tenor and you could sing the harmony lower.

Looking forward to the next song. Good Jorb

Thanks mom, he and I will have to sing it when you guys come up next week. I tried changing the song but couldn’t get it within my timeframe, hopefully no ears bleed.
