I know I'm going to get answers like "to sing, just open up your mouth and sing", I know HOW to sing, but... I need to know how to figure out good things TO sing.. hmm.
In the many bands I've been in over the years, I've mainly adopted a yell, a shout, a Beefheart-ian rant, or something else, and while I occassionally hit different notes when I'm vocalizing, I've very rarely SANG. The reason for this isn't that I'm insecure about my voice, but more so that I can't clearly think of good notes to hit when I'm singing. I can't find good vocal melodies. I actually am pretty good at singing other people's songs and immitating their voices, so I must have a decent range, so that's not the problem....... So, I don't really know how to ask this properly.. but.. Should I just sit down and play guitar and come up with a cool riff and then just try to match my voice to the notes? Are there any good sites online about how to sing well? Etc.. I think my voice sounds cool, but I just don't know how to use it properly for something like this. So, if anyone does, lemme know! Thanks!
