Did you know you can learn how to sing using karaoke backing tracks? You can you know. In fact for most of us it's not really a case of learning how to sing so much as learning how to listen.
We all can make noises quite naturally from low end grunting type noise to high end squealy type noises. Well these noises, combined with the manipulation of your body's muscles to produce different tones are the real fundamentals of being able to sing. The use of backing tracks could be considered a tool to help you learn to control these sounds that will come from you eventually.
This article is not intended to describe the idea of producing different tones but rather to help you to use Karaoke as a tool and will focus on that aspect.
Backing tracks offer a very specific advantage that scale training does not offer. Using tracks you sing an actual song and not just a bunch of different notes. Don't get me wrong, singing scales are great way to warm up and help increase you range but to be honest I've always found that when it come's to singing a real song, there's always something different about hitting the high notes than there is doing scale training. It's fairly obvious that songs in general don't always follow specific note patterns that are found on scale training guides and therefore you need to use your muscles differently. For example you may be required to hit a fairly high note from a very low note and then go back down in a song where the scales tend to be more chromatic, which is to say they often go up and down in a "doh, ray, mee " fashion that is quite predictable. You basically use your throat muscles differently for each song, so you're really as far ahead to sing songs rather than scales in a sense.
Take your favorite song, you can download them from the internet for not too much money at all, and give it a listen to. The first thing you need to know is whether or not the song you want to sing is in your range. It's very likely that high notes are going to be a problem for you if you're just starting out so make sure you can come close to at least most of the notes. Sing along to your tracks and get a feel for where the changes are and learn to anticipate them. You won't have to go through a song like this too many times before you realize that you are getting to know how the song really goes. Finally, record yourself singing the song and then compare it to the original to critique it a little bit at a time. Did you go high or low enough on the last phrase? Did you hold the note long enough? Too long maybe? Are you able to hit the highest or lowest notes? You can cheat a little by singing an octave higher or lower on that particular note or phrase.
