Don`t overcomplicate things!

No matter what your family or friends tell you - remember that YOU are the artist and the one who decides what goes or not.

Even though other peoples opinion matters, you have to give most attention to your inner voice. Especially when you are beginning to gain some experience as an artist. Dont fool yourself into

Don`t overcomplicate things!

No matter what your family or friends tell you - remember that YOU are the artist and the one who decides what goes or not.

Even though other peoples opinion matters, you have to give most attention to your inner voice. Especially when you are beginning to gain some experience as an artist. Dont fool yourself into thinking you can do it all. Even the world`s best singers and songwriters have got weak spots.

It`s MUCH better to sing an easy melodyline perfectly, than to struggle with something you are not able to sing good.

If you haven`t got a producer or a music guru that you trust with your life, you have to be your own harshest critique and feedback giver.

The only genre where your singing doesn`t need to be 100% perfect is comedy/satire/humor, where your singing flaws or other errors might even improve and underline the fun in the song.

NEVER think that "oh, it`s only me who can hear that my singing is a little bit off here and there, so I just leave it as it is". However, this way of thinking is just another fire-proof way to instantly ruin your singing career. The only time you should do this or is "allowed" to do it, is when you are putting down a guide-vocal track.

A guide-vocal track can be very helpful if another vocalist is singing your song or for you to simply not forget the melody you have just created.

Believe me, I have lost tons of beautiful (at least I thought so at the time) and/or catchy melodies, because I waited with recording it until it was too late and I had forgotten it. A trip to WC might be all it takes to forget what might had been a bomb on the billboard-charts for years...!
