    1. 3:28, 'simplify it, make it robotic', is there a specfic reason as to why should we practice in that way? What if we practice it in the way we would normally sing(like sliding notes, etc.)?

    2. 4:31, 'Use the 'Y' of YAH to launch in', I actually tried going AH without starting with the Y, as well as staring AH with the 'Y of the YAH', I don't hear any difference. Am I missing something?

    3. 5:53, What does 'cerebral' means?

    4. 7:22, 'Tunnel of sound', what does that mean?

     

    TIA!!! :D

    1. We may suggest simplifying to just focus on one aspect of your singing. But it's not "wrong" to sing with more expression if that's easier/preferred!

    2. YAH or AH, both are good. Some singers find the Y helpful for their onset. 

    3. Cerebral: intellectual rather than emotional or physical

    4. I take that to mean a clear, focused sound. Sounds like it's more of a visualization!
