Any idea what it hurt your throat? Like, are you doing something weird to force it or just not used to it?
I think I’ve spent so many years attempting to mimic the voices in music I listen that the only time I’ve had soreness from doing a specific voice was when I spent like an hour singing along to a very autotuned-sounding album and trying to mimic the electronically-added buzziness. Which falls into the “doing something weird to force it” category. Had to use the lower range of my voice for the next day or two while my vocal cords recovered from that. 🤕
Also was very hoarse after going to a Laura Jane Grace concert, but that seems like a normal and expected outcome.
It’s a bit of both, I think? I’m not really used to manipulating my voice in any way. I’ve never done any sort of imitation, funny voices or singing before, and I also don’t use my regular voice that much, which isn’t helping. It felt like I was either engaging the wrong muscles or pushing them way too far in order to get the desired sound
