Any singers here? Singing question.

What are some tips that you could give to someone who is learning to sing?
I have been writing songs for years but am now trying to learn to sing so that I can record them and go out and preform then.
I'd say I'm about a 7 right now as far as a singer but some days I sound better than others.
The main problem I have is keeping my jaw and toungue loose, the longer the phrase is that I have to sing the more they want to tighten up at the end of it.
The last word in a phrase is really where the tightness is coming in, have gotten it out mostly aside from that.
Did any of you have trouble with this when you were learning to sing, what did you do to help keep your jaw and toungue loose?

I learned how to sing years after I learned how to play guitar. It was the hardest thing in the world for me to play guitar and sing at the same time, but with practice, it eventually clicked, and its not so hard now.
But you are talking about just singing? Practice makes perfect. Just keep practicing, and google voice exercises and what not.

Minimum 20 mins of warm-ups. Go through vowels, key changes, octaves, and loosening exercises.
Every time you feel yourself start your do something bad, stop and start that phrase over.
Sing first with musical accompaniment,then sing with out it.
One of the best things to do is record yourself singing but sing along to the music on your headphones, so when you listen to the recording you only hear your voice and can pinpoint the problem areas.
Don't rely on stupid bulllshit like autotune, learn to sing well then you can fool with those things.

Quit thinking about it and just let it fly. Unless you're going for some opera-type shite. Hell, do it then, too..

Just like any muscle group, you need to exercise and stretch your throat and mouth. What style of music are you working on
