Knowing how stuff is done 100% right and deliberately deciding when something has to be done that way are two different things.

Learn stuff, know stuff, but don’t get bogged down by it.

Best example is graphic design: I used to do everything in vector graphics in Inkscape, all parametric in 1:1 ratio to how it’s going to be printed/presented. Now I go apeshit in pixel graphics in GIMP and it’s so much more useful for a lot of applications, where the goal isn’t as clear cut as let’s say technical drawings; free flowing artsy graphic stuff so to speak.

I know how I’d do it 100% right, but chose not to as the effort increases exponentially for nobody to notice it if that line is completely straight in the corner of a deep fried A4 print of some artwork.

If this is what blows up the facist bromance then I’ll gladly take it.

Those darn triangles!

Depends on the skill level that you are starting on. If your are starting more or less new then I cannot overstate how useful a teacher can be in getting things right from the get go.

Generally speaking you want to start out with training basics like correct breathing and how to create a tone correctly. I’m the end singing is a very physical thing. You learn to use the muscles in your mouth and throat properly.

Also things like hitting the right pitch and rhythm are a thing. Depends if you have a musical background otherwise.

And very important: If something hurts die out after singing, you’re not using the right technique. It will occur that your do things wrong while practising but listen to your body and don’t overdo it.

I can warmly recommend Catherine Sadolin’s Complete Vocal Technique. It is a fantastic book especially if you don’t want to / can’t get a private teacher.

I hope this was somewhat helpful to you, cheers!

Singing

That’s a great business model. Create the demand for your supply yourself. Wtf, this system is so fucked.

Let’s see for how long.
