0:03:03 > 0:03:07Hey, guys. Thanks for joining me for another episode

0:03:07 > 0:03:08of Lessons In The Lounge.

0:03:08 > 0:03:10So, as you know, my friends and I

0:03:10 > 0:03:13just did a really, like, rock and roll cover of Midnight Riders,

0:03:13 > 0:03:18so I kind of just wanted to explain how we achieved that vibe,

0:03:18 > 0:03:19that sort of vibe.

0:03:19 > 0:03:24So, first of all, the main point was definitely our vocals,

0:03:24 > 0:03:29so we used a technique called shout singing, or talk singing.

0:03:29 > 0:03:32So, this is when you kind of...

0:03:32 > 0:03:38You really want to project and get that strong, powerful vocal.

0:03:38 > 0:03:42So it's OK if you kind of, like, go off key little bit,

0:03:42 > 0:03:44because it's more about, like, the power

0:03:44 > 0:03:46and, like, the feeling behind the song.

0:03:46 > 0:03:49You know who would have some great tips on this?

0:03:49 > 0:03:52I think the number one thing is just being spontaneous...

0:03:52 > 0:03:53- Yeah!- ..when you have the shout singing,

0:03:53 > 0:03:55because it just allows for a lot of freedom.

0:03:55 > 0:03:59- It doesn't have to sound like... - Perfect!- ..like, amazing.

0:03:59 > 0:04:03- It's got to be more about having fun.- Feeling!- Just messing around.

0:04:03 > 0:04:05- Yeah.- And joking with your friends. - Yeah.

0:04:05 > 0:04:07So, we should probably get some examples of this.

0:04:07 > 0:04:09- Yeah, let's show them.- Right?

0:04:09 > 0:04:12One, two, three, four.

0:04:12 > 0:04:16# (What) We are, we are born to be the midnight riders

0:04:16 > 0:04:20# (Where) Everywhere we go We always go together

0:04:20 > 0:04:24# (What) We are, we are born to be the midnight riders

0:04:24 > 0:04:28# (Who) Every day we play rock and roll forever. #

0:04:30 > 0:04:32- Yeah!- Yeah!- Yeah!- Woo!

0:04:33 > 0:04:35I was, like, singing into my hand.

0:04:35 > 0:04:38You have, like, an invisible mic. Anyway, we had fun.

0:04:38 > 0:04:42- Yeah!- That seemed fun.- Exactly! So try it at home.- Yeah.- Yeah!

0:04:42 > 0:04:44Thanks for watching.
