Isn't it strange the way our mental concepts influence
what we do. When I think "UH" it just makes a
backwards "ah" fly right into a nice, free, forward
place. I must have a strange, forward concept of
"uh."
I guess this is why we will never be able to teach
voice with the so-called "scientific" method --
there's just no one-size-fits-all rule to fix every
vocal problem.
