So my singing just took a turn for the worst...

OddOneOut	Date: August 21, 2007 @ 4:39 PM Ever since I go back from my holiday (about a month ago now) my singing doesn't seem to be as good as it usually is. I had a bad cough and woke up each morning with a killer sore throat when I was on holiday. Normally every wednesday or every other wednesday I go to dancing and practice my song and dance (Nowadays from Chicago) but ever since I got back from holiday i seem to miss th high notes and rarely start in key. Iss it one of those things I just have to keep practcing before i get my voice back up to standard, or will it stay like this? Oh and, to get rid of unwanted phlegm its go dairy free right? Tis affecting my breathing...
SimonWaldram	Date: August 21, 2007 @ 4:51 PM If you've had a bad cough and a sore throat it's to be expected that you won't be able to sing as well as usual for a while. I'd say give your voice for a week or two to heal itself and you'll be fine. If you have a lot of phlegm this is bound to affect your voice too. You'd perhaps be surprised at how much giving up daily can help. Go a while without it and I'm sure you'll see a difference. Alcohol isn't very good for your voice either (I don't know if you drink much or anything) and obviously smoking isn't good either.
