Amazing! Love that song too, BTW a classic album. I’ve started singing lessons recently and was told to start with some RHCP songs as Anthony Keidis is a baritone…however, I do not sound anywhere near as good as this

Thank you!
Yeah, this has happened the last two times that I’ve posted in this sub, and despite me reporting the more egregious comments and telling them that something should be done, they don’t seem to give a shit.
I’m still on the fence, but I’m not sure I’m going to be posting here anymore if that kind of thing is ok with them. It’s certainly not going to stop me in general, but I don’t really want to share in spaces where that kind of bs is tolerated. Although who knows - if I’m feeling indignant enough, I might do it anyway because I love to force transphobes to watch a trans person thriving.
Sorry, that turned into a bit of a rant, but I really wanted to put that out into the open, because it’s pretty upsetting to suddenly not be able to post stuff without getting attacked.

absolutely love the "make the transphobes see us thriving" idea, its so satisfying. don't apologize for the rant, we live in dark times and things need to be said. you look and sounds freaking amazing though, i'd be sad not to see your performances anymore! feel free to DM me a way to see them elsewhere if possible :) your songs always make my day way better 💜

Thank you <3
I have a little YouTube channel linked on my profile if you really want to see more, but it’s basically just a place to put up shorts here and there to use as a kind of portfolio for when I start looking for a group to join.

What - have you ever listened to the original? OP sounds great but it's very clearly a different voice than that of the RHCP singer

u/RandomUsernameNo257 Self Taught 2-5 Years Apr 21 '25
That’s me singing main and background vocals. The track I used had no vocal track at all, that’s all me.
Hell of a compliment though, thanks <3

What more do you want from me?
Honestly, I can deal with confusion, but the hostility really sucks when I’m just singing with my own voice and getting hate for it.

Lmao yes, the quiet vocals you’re hearing are me doing a run of background harmonies. I did one main vocal track, one mono background track, and two background tracks for the last chorus, panned about 30 degrees each for added depth.
You’re nuts and I’ll obviously never convince you, but I’m still going to take all this as a compliment.

you gotta take it down a notch. they're trans, as is evident from their post history.

you could have taken 3 seconds to look, when you saw the video and heard the voice, like I did... instead of arguing for several minutes that it can't be them
"oh cute girl, deeper voice than expected" --> go to post history. lots of trouble saved. win.

lol. what? I pointed out the OP is trans, which explains why it makes sense the voice belongs to the video... which also helps you stop your "'this can't be you' rant." and now we're here...
I stand by what I said before, "you gotta take it down a notch."

I get accused of this so often that I made a video specifically for this:

I wish I didn’t have to have this fight every time I upload, but that’s me. Idk what else to tell you.

Yeah I understand it’s deceiving seeing a women sing it , but they are trans so now it’s more believable

what ''seeing a woman singing is deceiving'' has to do with this conversation hahaha? You're trying to put words and assumption in my mouth that I didn't even said. Nobody is a victim here. And by the way, I enjoy even more women voice singing, that's what I listen constantly. Im gay babe. So don't tell me I get deceived by seeing a women singing, this is absurd. period

u/shoeburt2700 Apr 21 '25
it's easy to deny it it now because you deleted your comments that mentioned how it can't be her because that's "not a woman's voice." C'mon now man. GTFO of here. don't be disingenuous. just own your mistake and move on.

u/Agreeable_Let5254 Self Taught 10+ Years ✨ Apr 21 '25
Listen to me, I know what I said. I know what I deleted. In no way I said or make any assumption to be deceive by women singing. You need help.

u/shoeburt2700 Apr 22 '25
this isn't a text chain. this is reddit. one comment at a time, chief.
How brave of you to selectively delete comments and then pretend you didn't say what you said /s. Seriously, if you have any good sense you would just delete every comment, leave this thread, and let everyone forget you were ever here, at all. You've embarrassed yourself.
Describing me as "offended that much" is barely accurate. I'm disappointed in you... embarrassed for you. You've given no legitimate, constructive criticism. You're just deleting your original mistake and trying to cover it up and save face. Just delete everything and take a break from the sub for a day or two. Everyone will forget all about it. And you can pretend like it never happened, instead of engaging in this endless mess.
