I should know, I'm a singer. [also, mibba cliques are dumb.] - Comments

I am definitely scared off of the Artist forums, because in all the threads I'm interested in, there are five or so people who dominate, and talk about slash and assign the band members to characters in Disney movies and I personally would not like to get into that.

" I'm a classical singer. Singing pop or rock can damage my voice."
And this is why I'm glad my voice sucks. I do not participate in chorus, or take voice lessons, so I'm free to sing along to all the songs I want. Of course, sometimes I'm offkey and what not, but I'm happy, and usually my family doesn't care, so I'm good.

Woah, you have an amazing voice. I wish I could sing like that. :)

yourpinkdiary Well most rock and pop doesn't expand your vocal range. It keeps you at one grungy, low spot that you can sing easily and without too much technique. Like, you don't have to use your soft pallet and breathe from your back. You see most pop and rock singers breathing from their chest. Staying at that constant range, your voice will become comfortable with it and singing at higher notes will be difficult. That's why opera singers don't usually do modern musical theater, which is mostly rock influences. And your voice doesn't fully develop until you're 35, so damaging it now means your done.

Basically, my voice teacher knows when I've been singing something I'm not supposed to because my voice won't hit high notes with as much tone as expected.

Trash Hologram., I get what you're saying. I used to float around on INO and when I switched over to Mibba, I explored the forums and came across WAYT threads. Now, that's a place to fear... I never really felt welcome in those types of things, so I generally steer clear of forums.

Oh! I forgot to tell you!

You're an aweosme singer.

I think no matter where you go the 'cliques' are going to happen. People just gravitate towards each other, naturally and online. I just don't pay attention to it, there's no point.

Your singing is really good... if you don't mind me asking what is so different about pop and rock etc that means you can't sing it? Even though some people see me as a 'singer' because I'm on my youth's music team I don't really know that much about singing... especially not from a classical point of view, so I'm curious.

Awee, you guys are so nice!

Yeah I mean they're nice and helpful and stuff but people on forums.. :twitch:
I can't go to some threads anymore. I feel unwanted there.

v Ah, those guys.

v I think it's the group that keeps saying 'spread the love' and gave each other positions in a 'family'. It's a very friendly group, by what I've seen.

I don't know who the "Briniviks" are, but yeah, not so much with the cliques. Just groups of friends here and there.

Nah I mean comment this like that.

v. No, the Brinivic was pre-determined...

I thought you guys did that to be funny.
I was scared >_>

I just realized how douchey it must have looked when we said there were no cliques and all of our usernames matched...

But like Jinxeh said, it's more of a close group of friends thing. We'll talk to other people, we do all the time.

To be fair, it's all about perspective as well. I'm more than aware that people think that the group of myself, Audrey T., Dancing Caveman, Sardonic Grin, and several others are a clique - but we're not, we're all just good friends, and so of course we tend to pay more attention to one another than everyone else, and we talk to each other more often, too. Maybe that's viewed upon as a "clique" to some people, but if it is...they're really reaching for that one.

I think the Brinivik's are a pretty tightnit Mibba family, or as your saying 'clique'.

So you know, spread the love :]

Agreed with the people below.
You're also a good singer.

I see no 'Mibba cliques.'

What "Mibba cliques" are you talking about?

You're a really good singer, by the way. o_o
