Hi guys,
I came on here a few months back with the 1st singing video I made. You guys seem to be the best at dishing out the criticism, no matter how brutal!
So, here's another!

it was ok - you have a lovely voice but I felt some of the notes were too low for you, i think song choice is a big issue with a lot of your vids, you definitely have the voice but seem to just sing popular 'singer songs' - at risk of sounding like a talent show judge, you need to figure out your style, and what songs suit your voice.
It would be better to pick a song that has some emotional content you can relate to - and perform it on video - that would give us some idea about you as a performer. Music isn't just a technical skill it's a form of emotional expression, communication. It didn't communicate to me I'm afraid (but I think you do have a very nice voice).
You'd probably make a decent backing singer, but that's as far as I'd go. Your voice is peasant but not distinctive enough for you to make it as a lead vox. Plus, as others have said, there's no emotion. Music isn't meant to be perfect, if singing with passion means you hit a duff note or get a little shouty at times, so what? At least we'd know you meant what you're singing
Also, one final point, the key is too high for you, it needs to be a semitone to a tone lower.
You beat me to it, was just going to say it is in wrong key.
great minds etc
RE the video, the only recordning device I have is my phone, and it isn't great, Maybe I should get myself a decent camera!!
