Keep It Simple Singing. Having trouble singing a song? Don't just sing the whole song over and over again. Break it into sections and work with a productive practice attitude.
An easy way to give yourself confidence singing the song is to remove all of the words. You might be surprised what a difference it makes when you sing your verse or chorus on the syllable "Nay". Try it. Experience shows that where you were unable to hold notes on the words, you will be able to transfer your exercise knowledge to the song and develop more power -- not to mention more self-esteem and confidence. Try it for yourself.
Once you are able to sing strongly on one syllable, add the words back in and see how you do. This is not a one step process. You may need to practice your song with this idea several times. In singing, persistence counts.
