▪️Hi Tel, well done with There's A Heartache. Great delivery and a real range needed, which you do very well. The song starts lower down and climbs and you make those transitions very well. There's a hint of Jim R there without copying, so you put your own stamp on it.
▪Your vocals are absolutely spot on, Tel. A great job done!. Denis J.
▪️Fantastic voice! I love how rich and powerful your vocals are.
I'm stunned that you only just started, you have raw natural talent. Michele B.

▪️I love your version of Zero. For me I'd slow it up by 5 beats per minute and put in a second identical lead vocal. Lennon and Bowie used to do this 'double vocal effect'. Your timing on all of these is absolutely spot on and proves how much you practice.
Great work Tel!. Denis J
