Bonos problem with voice tips!

[Peterrrrr]

The first 2 legs of Popmart(it was the in the end of 2nd leg and the 3rd leg that was the worst) had a few highlights but also that half of the tour contains alot of voice problems.

Listen to this version of ISHFWILF, he even cant handle the low voice

This is one area I disagree, Peterrrr.

I can accept a "kermit" voice for certain parts of a song. It's really just a falsetto and if it gives a bit more strength of oomph in that part of a song, then I have no problem with that. But otherwise, I prefer a healthy Bono voice. Listening to Bono in the Super Bowl performance, for example, was painful. The scratchy vocals worked on BD as the song is meant to be sung that way. However, those same scratchy vocals on MLK ruined a beautiful song.

Fortunately, Bono's voice seems in great form now. And I hope it's due to him either quitting smoking or decreasing substantially. Some singers can smoke away - but Bono's range, power and emotion demand he not smoke.

I thought this thread was going to be about tips for Bono when he had voice problems.

1. Gargle warm water and honey.

2. Rest.

3. Grapefruit juice.

4. Only smoke menthols...

Something like that.

Doesn't he already know this? I thought people have suggested that he does see a vocal coach?

Read number 4, it was a joke based on Peterrrrrr's misspelling in his title.

But didn't someone say that he only smokes a 2 or 3 cigs a day anyway now?

That really ruined the joke.

 

[BVS]

It wasn't ruined before?

Damn

 

[Galeongirl]

Well I laughed the first time I saw it. Quite sad how Peterr hasn't been back to his thread!

 

[beachball]

Peterrrrrr did come back!

I guess he has broad shoulders

 

[Galeongirl]

Well he did but he never responded.

 

[beachball]

He never does, he's very focused on his study
