Is it bad technique if you can hear a singer breath, even if they breath low and from diaphragm

Why do you keep asking the same question over and over - especially when vocal coach is advising you with the correct answer.

Singers who are pros ..even hit makers ... aren't using the best form.

Why are you in your 60s and replying to every single post that I make? Geez oh peets.

Nobody else seems to be replying anymore.

You don't seem to understand how a forum works. You ask a question, others provide an answer.

Why are you looking into my profile at details such as my age? What does my age (or yours) have to do with anything? I have replied to 100s ..perhaps 1000s of people in my many years on various forums.

Heck, Roger's answered quite a few of your questions too...and he's older than I am. So what?

Lastly, where did I state an untruth? You may not like an answer but it doesn't make it any less true.

You can hear many singers breathe before a phrase because they have microphones pressed up against their mouths. That's not a problem with their technique, that's a problem with their sound engineers. Listen to a singer who isn't electronically amplified and you'll notice the difference.

Oh, and by the way, Ragman's advice isn't sixty years old. It's correct and up-to-the-minute. The impertinence of youth, however, is apparently timeless.

No kidding. I know someone who's a vocal coach that I was going to forward this to but I'm not going to bother now.
