Interesting discovery I made earlier
Interesting discovery I made earlier tonight: singing high and loud clears out your sinuses. No, I did not blow snot all over my steering wheel, thank you. I did, however, sing "Out Tonight" from Rent twice at the top of my lungs, unaware that my sinuses were stuffy. The chorus has several high notes that, if sung right, sorta buzz your sinuses. I guess I shook them loose, cause when I was finished, my nose was so stuffy I could barely breathe.
So there's a sinus remedy for you. Study voice, then sing. Hey, Maryann and Ms. Lambert! I'm finally starting to get what you tried to beat into my head for so long! I got the buzzy thing right! (The "buzzy thing" was the bane of my vocal student years. Maryann used to tell me I'd get it when I was older. Guess she was right.)
