A Great Way to Memorize
This is a text memorization technique
that I have put to the test. It gets my seal of approval and is the fastest text
memorization technique I have ever used. Get a copy of the song
lyrics. Count to the fifth or sixth word in the first line, and
draw a line through the middle of the word, between two syllables if
you can. This will give you a sentence fragment that doesn’t mean
anything, but that’s the point! Speak the text out loud in
monotone, with no word inflection, so that it sounds almost like
babble. Repeat this speaking process out loud until the line
fragment is memorized. Then move to the next fragment and do the
same process. Then join the two fragments together. Go
through the entire song and memorizing in fragments and then joining
them to the fragments around them. Keep putting memorized
fragments together until you can speak quickly and repeatedly through
the whole song with no break in the words and getting all of it
correct. I recently used this process to completely memorize an
entire 32-line song in twenty minutes!
For a great
technique to learn the total song and how to sing it fast, take my
“Seven Secrets
to Mastering a New Song" course, available from Sing In
Tune.
