Gong

#1: Al LaPointe (kancamagus) on Aug 1, 2010

visions of chuck barris, jp morgan, charles nelson riley, the unknown comic, and gene-gene the dancing machine are now haunting my brain....

#3: Liz P (Lizteach) on Aug 1, 2010 [SPOILER]
Al made me smile...I loved Gene-Gene. I would always get up and imitate his dance.

GONGGGG!

It's fun to say "gong" like you've just struck one. You drop your jaw and hold out the "ng" for a long time, with a slow vibrato. It helps to shake your head up and down, to get the vibrations right.

Easier done than explained, I suppose.

This also won't work if you have a high voice. Try to drop it down an octave, if you do. :)

what's the opposite of falsetto?
#12: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Oct 2, 2012
basso profundo? ;)
#13: David Bouldin (dbouldin) on Oct 2, 2012
:) wouldn't that be the opposite of countertenor?

How avant-garde! I love the concept. I started from the bottom and worked my way around from the left going clockwise. I could tell it was a gong once I placed the 6 clues hanging down.
