Another tip: ask the singer if he touches the back of his teeth too much. There lives the source of the excessive S´s.
Also: ask him to slightly get the mouth off mics axis when he reaches some critical passenges with too much S.

no offense but you must be stoned.
id like to see you ask some of the singers i work with that question - then see what happens.
getting tracks from engineers that have asked singers to move around to make up for their engineering hackery just makes me wanna hurt someone.
pick a mic quickly , and get on with the show by letting the singer just sing without thinking that they suck or need dental surgery.
