@@hannahthomas9507 it still is she just doesn’t use strong vocals as much in her songs anymore for some reason but she very obviously still has a string my voice

[@NikkiJabs]

People keep commenting that her voice has “changed.” It hasn’t changed. She purposely switches the voice styles to fit the genre she is singing. Pop and Broadway have very different styles. She still has the ability to sing the Broadway style, it’s just not desirable for pop- the same way the style of opera wouldn’t be desirable for pop.

[@Enigmatism415]

The beauty of pop music is that there IS no one style of singing. I've heard pop songs with all different sorts of singing styles. Well, more in the 20th century than in the 21st...

[@SuperDannyBoy95]

Actually it’s been about proven she can’t hold the same notes for long girl. Calm down.

[@robinyoung5194]

....ok bu these are clips of her singing a broadway song and she’s still singing it like one of her breath-y pop songs

[@MM-kq6fe]

The amount of people in this comment section that act like singing experts just because they've seen a couple "vocal trainer reacts to" and think they are really saying something meaningful by saying "high larynx this resonance that"... lmaooooooooo they really think they know better than ariana fuc king grande 😂😂😂

[@dougy_dawg]

Except Ari’s not mean

[@babyvirgo00-88]

I love Ari, but after hearing her voice before Hollywood, I can’t help but compare the two. Hollywood has made her voice more baby-like and breathy. She had such a strong voice. I mean her voice is still beautiful, but it’s just so breathy.

[@SpoonieScully]

In Debt College Student I agree but that also happens with time. I’ve noticed the same with my voice as I’ve gotten older

[@AndrewKolotyliuk]

Before Hollywood she sang with her her larynx lowered and in her chest voice bc that's a pretty popular in Broadway because it helps provide more resonanc. Now her larynx is more neutral and sings slightly breathy as a stylistic choice in some of her songs. But her talent and skill and still intact.

[@Canbies]

if you listen to her most recent cover of wizard and i, she still has it

[@emilyanne1562]

Yes her voice sounds so much stronger and different before Hollywood, now she has a completely different way of singing to fit the pop songs.

[@jasmine-eb6xw]

Jessie Carl yup! she still has it. but, i’d say, she does have more of a “pop”, sounding voice hidden in that performance.

[@kayadeangelis9344]

She sounds a lil different! I think it’s because in theatre she’s required to enunciate but that’s not really her style in modern stuff

[@jacobmolina4068]

Um because that was 2008 and this is 2019

[@berenicecastro5430]

Voices can change in over a decade too. I don't think Heather is just making a point about the music style.

[@drizzyyy2.0]

Kaya De Angelis exactly

[@juliaobrien5353]

thank you!! someone who understands

[@-amberrr-3521]

Its because shes using her head voice, when your younger you use more of your voice then your techniques but as you get older you voice is more airy and breathy and that allows more air to escape to add more extra fancy stuff to your voice. I just used this from a proffesional Vocal Coach and my own knowledge.

[@Gwnswrld]

Frankie is such a good brother ugh love him

[@mikayla5919]

I knowwwwwwwwww!!!

[@elisavsnn]

I can’t get over the way frankie look at her when she do the hight notes

[@_kd..]

One thing I do really love about her is she knows how to sing for the room she's in. like when she's on a stage it's big and strong, but in the car she doesn't full on belt, yet it still has a strong-ness about it. that's a smart in control type singer to know, every time you sing it doesn't have to be loud and belt-y but can still give it the same power and effect for the room.

[@puntoalegria3450]

She’s been killing it since day one!

[@BarbieSwagg98]

She’s really in her element with her brother, it’s so cute. They fit so well together

[@markhooper9267]

Love how she spins round at 9:00 when she realises he didn’t take a breath...

[@ElizabethT45]

I have watched that clip so many times and I never got what made her turn so quickly - meanwhile Seth is practically passing out lol

she turned because he stopped the car abruptly haha

Her runs are everythinggg

[@leonardorosado9247]

0:17 OMG WHY CANT SHE DO MORE OF THESE TYPES OF NOTES?!?!?!?!

[@musicmanthatlikesoldandnew7324]

Leonardo Rosado because she now days is doing all kinds of nots it sounds better but how ever she sings she is naturally perfect perfect

[@Sir_Konflex]

because its too compressed and not healty if you have to perform 7 times a week, thats why her technic went more into light belting/mix

[@Somosixn]

Do u hear her now ? Better technic, better breathing, belting on point... she is not forcing anything, and no one flat note... she improved on everything except her pronunciation but thats the artist choice

[@ailsaallan]

Probably because not a lot of people listen to this as much as they listen to more poppy vocals

@@Sir_Konflex omg thank you I was going insane all these people saying she has less good technique with her pop sound...... It's so obviously less straining long term to sing like she does now.

[@gcvlog1018]

If only she still sings and pronounce her words like the first clip, she'll be my front runner for the role of Elphaba for the Wicked movie. She's way tooooooo pop now. I cant even understand a word she's singing on her Hairspray Live stint.

[@bemorediya7122]

GC Vlog101 I’ve never agreed more for a KZbin comment

[@paytonlutz7178]

GC Vlog101 never agreed more, shes still a great singer, just too pop for broadway

[@cheyennerose2177]

She has broadway training and can still pronounce just fine but chooses not to. She originally planned on staying in broadway but her music career took off.

[@carriewood3308]

GC Vlog101 true

[@KahRistAhn]

She could probably get back there with some training. I really think she could do a good job.

[@EricJay98]

I’d love to see 2019 Ari sing this again. She’s improved so much this year

[@brianp6712]

You can here her diction drifting farther and farther away. Dont get me wrong, she is my favorite artist and an amazing singer. Its just.....*sigh*

[@fabulosobroham]

Diction is word choice, she uses the same lyrics throughout this whole thing except replacing the name Seymour with Frankie before. I think the word you were looking for was enunciation.

[@moonlightbae4919]

Educate him 🤩😂

[@brennayeary4233]

Fabian Gonzalez Diction can be simply defined as the pronunciation or enunciation of your vocal expression. In regards to singing, it is the clarity or particular way words are pronounced in a song. Literature definition is different than the artistic definition, so what OP said was valid.

[@misspriss2482]

Her diction would sound odd in the music she makes now. Her pronunciation is a stylistic choice.

[@bethm5852]

Miss Priss True, I think that they were just pointing out that she was enunciating less in the more recent clip. Even when singing a song that isn’t hers.

[@helenabask7396]

9:09 Car stops: Arina: fuc*! *keep singing casually* I laughed so hard

[@laa8814]

[@bappo1525]

Now we have a 2021 version omg

[@Typicalgirlintown]

1st clip: enunciation is better but sounds a bit strained 2nd clip: voice sounds more relaxed and enunciation is not that different

[@srayj]

I actually like her version with Seth the best, but it’s bugging me that in both of the carpools she is wearing her seatbelt incorrectly.

[@uland88]

It's because she is so small.That's how you put seatbelts on children if they are so short that the shoulder strap would actually choke them in an accident and if they don't have a booster seat to make them the right height for it. One of my sitters for my son is a grownup but she wears them like that too.

[@nevadanicholson4775]

@@uland88 ....she is tall enough to wear a seat belt properly. I know shes small but that's the dumbest thing I've ever heard...I'm sorry but I just... her head is literally even with the seat.

[@bethm5852]

uland88 Yeah but she’s a good few inches taller than me and I’ve worn my seatbelt normally (and comfortably) since before I can remember.

[@macyzimmerman]

Nevada Nicholson she’s 5’2. My brother is 5’2 and if he wears the seatbelt regular, it chokes him. If she got into an actual car accident, she might not be able to breathe if the seatbelt locks.
