Eh dude. I'm sure most people will tell you how amazing it is or something, but it wasn't very good. Sorry.

I won't speak to things like pitch because I don't know if you are hitting the notes, but your enunciation is poor.  I honestly couldn't tell what you were singing at times.  Even if you are in key and on pitch (and based on history I'm guessing thats not the case), you're struggles with diction are very appearant.

Also, can we get these threads to the Musicians forum?  I don't see why one person gets a free pass on this.

I always find vocal covers to be very awkward to watch.  This was no different.

because it's a DREAM THEATER vocal cover, hence why it's in the dream theater section

Yes, but we're not discussing DT. We're discussing Nicky, who just happens to be "singing" Dream Theater.

Nicky, as so many times before, you're just off-pitch half of the time. You just don't hear it.

Here's what I find most interesting.



What most of us are saying:

Nicky, it's really not very good. You're not a very good singer. These videos are not very good. You are off pitch most of the time, lack proper diction and just don't seem to have the range to sing what you are singing.


What Nicky seems to hear:

Again, my perception of it is that he thinks sooner or later we will see his talent.

Not good man.  Sorry.

Prophets, apostles, preachers, martyrs, pioneers of knowledge, inspired artists in every art, ordinary men and the Man-God, all pay tribute to loneliness, to the life of silence, to the night." - A.
