Answer 1

just keep trying to do both, you'll get better eventually

talent just doesn't.. pop out of no where, you have to practice

good luck dude

Answer 2

Start out small... play little tunes on the piano as you sing along. Write you own music and try that. Practice will eventually get you to where you want to be.

I myself sing and play the piano and it took me months to master singing and playing simotaniously (sp)!

If your trying to learn a specific song, learn it first on the piano. Then sing along with the recording, and then step-by-step, put it together and then perfect it!

Hope this helps and good luck!

Those are two of the best intruments ever ;-)

Answer 3

You can't live in the ocean without your friends.

Answer 4

I'd expect when you learn a song good enough to play it in your sleep, and you don't have to think about what note to play next and everything, you'd be able to sing along with it.

Answer 5

Hi Heat

The best way is to practice the song on the piano without singing it out loud.

That's is easy to do and called 'playing by ear' . Then, once you have it down correctly, sing a little at a time until you acquire the sense of independence.

If you can sing the song alone, and play the song on the piano, than , what you are missing is  co-ordination.

Answer 6

Thats really hard to do, but you just have to learn to pace yourself right. Just start off by tapping your foot or talking to someone else while playing piano. Eventually you will be good at multitasking.

Answer 7

use a metrenome and practive a song about 20-30 bpm less then the normal tempo. then slowly work your way up. good luck!
