HOW TO AVOID FORGETTING LYRICS ON STAGE WHILE SINGING
Then put the second version third on the playlist and again, follow up with the backing track.
When we sing along with the artist, we don’t really memorize the lyrics because the artist is constantly reminding us of what they are. This is why, following up with the backing track means you’re forced to memorize the lyrics yourself.
Having two different versions only strengthens this, because it jolts you out of hearing the same thing again and again. The second singer may hold notes differently or sing in a slightly different rhythm etc. By having two versions, followed by a backing track its a sure fire way to get that song into your head properly.
Imagine yourself walking through the song like it’s a movie and have it play out in your mind. If the lyrics say ‘come on lets party tonight’ then imagine yourself getting dressed up to go out to a party.
This will help you to remember your lyrics because most songs follow a story line. You go out to a party and then what? You meet a guy, or dance with your friends. Stories are more memorable that just trying to remember words.
Throughout our school years, we do a lot of learning this way, the teachers will regurgitate a bunch of info, we write it out either by hand or on the computer and then it goes into our brain. So it makes sense to do the same thing with learning lyrics.
Instead of downloading the lyrics online, take the time to write them out by hand or on your computer, and you may find that you start remembering them.
So now you have three different methods for remembering song lyrics. Just choose whichever method you feel will work best for you, and please let me know if this has helped you in the comments below.
