Honestly, you should be focused on bring head voice down. (I know, I know, it seems counter-intuitive...) The truth is that most people bring chest too far up, and thus have a sudden strain, or sudden airiness in their voices at a certain point. If bringing head voice down sounds "hooty" or "hollow," then you aren't bringing head down, you're bring falsetto down.
And that's OK to start, because it lets you know where you stand. Making a sound like a monkey ("Ooh, ooh, aah, aah") will help you to connect your vocal folds higher. Jumping around pitches with that sound and trying not to strain will help you to connect your true voice, but it's important that you don't freak out about the sound.
You aren't trying to sound pretty, you're trying to make a vocal connection. To illustrate my example, consider the style of singing in rock/R&B. (Ooh, I'ma get railed for bringing them up at the same time...) R&B is less "covered" and more "effected," so if you listen to high notes, you can tell that the singer kinda sings "from the back of the throat."
There's a difference between singing from the back, and just singing from the throat. When you sing from the throat, you tighten, the sound cracks badly, and it HURTS. From the back, the sound is more "squeaky," and it doesn't hurt.
Hard rock singers actually do the same thing, but they clench up their diaphragms and tighten their abs like crazy to "push" that squeaky sound out, making it far more aggressive-sounding. You can tell the difference between a pro and an amateur, too: the pro may not have perfect pitch, but they WILL go a little squeaky in the mid-to-high notes. An amateur will shout, bellow, and call till the cows come home, or slip carefully into falsetto.
If you can, it's better to belt it out from your stomach. Although singing softly like 'falsetto' in some parts of songs can be good too. You will find that a microphone will help a lot.
If you are singing a big place where your voice won't be heard to the back of the room. Try your best notes by playing them on a piano or guitar , then for your note to sound exactly the same.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
