Vocal Coach Analysis: Bella Taylor Smith, blind audition: The Voice Australia 2021

[@thevobb]

Hands down, one of the best voices ever in any kind of singing competition show. Wow..... 😳🙌👏👏👏❤

[@aleanbh3808]

All of us here in Australia who watched her just adored her, heard her very disadvantaged backstory, she’s raised her little sisters almost single handedly, seeing them jumping up and down is just beautiful

[@jaypromise8161]

Am from Africa this lady is a bad news ....Australians you are blessed to have an angel like her 🎉🎉🎉😢😢😢😢😢

[@fabiolacardoso2047]

She's your national treasure, lemme tel'ya

[@anacarrilho4023]

Pure Beauty!

[@andreprinsloo7417]

Agree with your analysis. I have watched this performance probably 50 times or more and every time gives me the goosebumps, because she sings with her heart, passion and feeling. Watching her journey in the voice, she is humble and and genuine person.

[@kendrabryant4738]

I would love a full version of this song from Bella! It’s absolutely stunning & her control is fascinating!

[@thurston4mor]

She’s by far the best singer in the voice ever And the duo was like harmonic convergence It was fantastic

[@YDVDNVRR]

Her voice is absolutely insane. Sick vocals.

[@ruxproductions1143]

I'm guessing you have already seen it, but the duet between her and Guy, her coach, in the final is also just a little bit spesh! : )

[@user-jt6fp3xb3t]

You picked up on Bella's joy, her comfort and peace -- all qualities of the Spirit. Indeed she has sung in Hillsong Church in Australia for some years. There is a KZbin clip of her singing How Great Thou Art that really showcases her voice. Besides her bell-like voice, pun intended, she seems to put ego and intent "to win" aside, releasing a purity of spirit and sound into the atmosphere.

[@alisoncaller533]

Watching Bella on The Voice Australia was one of those 'moments' for me. I remember where I was, exactly what I was doing (serving up dinner - which I stopped doing when I heard her) and I remember crying with joy. Absolutely amazing ❤❤❤❤

[@shadowman4966]

Is it just me who gets so emotional when I hear this voice of an anointed soul? Wow 😮

[@thepeacefulnetch]

I think this video showed up in my feed because I’ve watched her blind audition so many times. The qualities you identified just make it such an absolute pleasure to return to. She mentions that she’s a vocal teacher at her church, and I imagine it would be amazing to have her as a teacher, someone who has that joy and skill combined.

[@jenniferslatten6705]

Same!! Lol

[@vwvwcqyq9828]

There's a lot of amazing singers in THE VOICE AUSTRALIA

[@davidhunternyc1]

I know nothing about voice so I've learned a lot by watching this. I want to know what is preventing Bella from becoming a meteoric singer like Adele? Her voice is rare. Jordan Smith was another great singer on The Voice that has yet to become a superstar. Why? What needs to happen with these singers? Why don't they break through the glass ceiling like a Beyonce or Taylor Swift? My own uneducated opinion is that it has to do with songwriting. If great, "authentically original" music is written for these artists, it doesn't matter how technically great their voices are. I saw a documentary on Patsy Cline. What I was amazed by was how much she loved the upbeat doo-wop pedestrian style of music. She didn't like singing torch songs but her music producers knew that it was these songs that were the zeitgeist moment in music history. It was her music producers and song writers who coaxed her into singing the great ballads like, "Crazy" and "I Fall to Pieces." I don't know if Bella is capable of writing her own original music. To be hawkish, I doubt it. It's why she and other great singers like Jordan Smith fail. Bella's voice is angelic but, like a lot of great singers, she needs to break through the glass ceiling and make great original music too. So few do.

[@davidhunternyc1]

@DCLifeObserved Yep, in a way, the songwriter is more important than the singer. Would Billy Eilish be who she is without Finneas? I doubt it. Billy's voice is terrific but Finneas is the genius. The same thing happened with Karen Carpenter and her brother, Richard Carpenter. Venturing into other territory, the songwriting of Radiohead and Tool were totally original. It's not easy to do after the likes of Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd. It's the songwriting, people!

[@toristanley1142]

Bella is very special with a wonderful gift. She is a song bird for sure Beautiful

[@kathyhoward1767]

I’ve watched her whole journey several times and will probably watch it several more times 🥰. Bella is an absolutely amazing young woman with an equally amazing talent. Wishing Bella the best from Minnesota here in the US!!

[@edgarsmith9102]

My God this was excellent, intelligent analysis. So much more than reaction. Superb job.

[@fabiolacardoso2047]

I'm so happy youtube recommended me this video. Thank you so much, very educational, and also in language we can understand. Really apreciate it. Love from Brazil ❤

[@HeartFeelings.Sharing]

Yes, her performances were stunning! This year's winner was amazing too! I'm quite sure you'd love listening to her! It's Tarryn Stokes, The Voice Australia 2023. Brilliant performances from the blinds to the finals!

[@angiearangcon8896]

I've watched this many times and I noticed that Bella did her audition barefoot beside her was her slippers 🥰🥰🥰

[@trishst]

I absolutely loved your reaction👏 you explained perfectly! Bella has a God given voice, love her 😍

[@markr.smithson3890]

I heard Bella's beautiful voice for the first time only two days ago, and I'm glad I watched your take on her performance. I'm not a great fan of how some singers overuse (my opinion) vibrato, and yet I absolutely loved her. When learning to play the piano as a child, I was told I had nearly pitch perfect hearing. Bella's addition of the runs to this song not only makes it her version, as you pointed out, but it demonstrates her incredible ability to control her voice. These runs are my favorite part.

[@sandraharper8112]

Bella has something special. She is amazing.

[@winston-churchill]

Have to tell you... maybe one of the best reactions and discussions about a singer and their technique that I have ever heard. Thank you 🙂

[@nicholasmotsatse8118]

I don't know if you've heard her sing "How Great Thou Art". It's magical

[@bevhowell7665]

She touched me the first time I heard her she touched all my sense ‘s

[@cheryly2413]

Love how you actually felt her core and her connection to the song. Thanks for sharing your accurate observations! :)

[@MusicLovesz]

The way that she sing, is like love and happinnes person, is like, when you love and you are so happy, you use to be calm and relax, also when you do what you love and what makes you happy, you use to do more times, pratice like hobby, like fun moment, and I think that she is music teacher for kids, and I see so much happines and passian in kind of teachers, it is why they are good in teaching.

[@isabellacoles5331]

This was great, thank you very much! I had the opportunity to see her live last year and it was such an intimate experience, she really moves you with her voice. Had goosebumps and all the feels, everything in between. A true gem, no one like this kind of vocal calibre. I have a music channel myself, been performing since I was young and have made a couple of attempts at her songs, Higher and now Small Things. She really is an inspiration to me, might be a little bit obsessed with her songs! 😅 And also, really insightful feedback as you’re watching - I feel like I do some of these things each time I sing… just don’t think about it! Always practicing and exploring new dynamics and strategies… great video, thank you very much!!

[@mrwmorley]

It's all in the spirit. She made me wanna worship to a Beyonce song 😅

[@j.tulibruh301]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@rolfmason]

Yes! It's the joy, the sheer palpable joy that shines out of her as she sings. It's a rare gift to have a voice, technique and a sense of gratitude.

[@HCLight100]

I have been absolutely captivated by Bella since I discovered her recently. Completely angelic. Love your analysis! SPOT ON! I was so inspired that I sat down and wrote a song that I will develop with my daughter-who is a singer- and I deeply hope Bella will put her imprint on it with her unique and diverse style.

[@RyKwong199]

Bella’s audition is a story that you can really relate with. She is amazing with an angelic voice and her story makes me love and adore her more!!! I watched her audition I think 100 times and it still gives me goosebumps ❤❤❤

[@kayarmstrong3806]

I love your Vocal Analysis I can see your vast knowledge and experience and professional objectives. You actually have a lovely voice. Bella I feel will only get better with time, a vocal coach can turn Natural God given talent into as much perfection possible and transform a person into a masterpiece of performance. Such a magical experience. Continued success ; 😘 Bravo Bella.

[@maphefomohlape6694]

Still in love with the audition

[@Shesnasia]

I love how you break everything down your amazing really wish I could get coached by you

[@mlhart3741]

Appreciate your insights - different from most reaction videos, even from coaches and trainers. You have a great way of communicating abut both technique and artistry. Bravo.

[@akshayparashar166]

You explain these intricacies so well!! Got goosebumps listening to those vocals and understanding that magic from you!

[@ranevadenisebass2952]

You can see that he is actually watched & listened to every aspect of her whole performance. I respect others opinions even if I might not completely agree with them. Im not qualified to critique anyone from a professional standpoint nor is it my place to pass judgment on anyone else or their views. But I do agree with his opinion about Bella. For me as a fan.. she is just absolutely amazing

[@Popeyes66]

I watched this video because i know of Bella from 2021. You Sir mirrored my assessment of Bella's absolutely God given voice. You are a funny guy too. I shall watch more of your videos after this . Thanks,and great camera & audio.

[@zdenkogruber1028]

Great analysis. Thank you for doing this!

[@JLONess]

[@Ian-hg8gx]

bella is an outstanding australian voice who is fairly recent to the scene, my favourite katie noonan has been amazing us for the last 20 years, try reacting to her doing my baby just cares for me live on the music trivia show rockwiz, i hope you like my favourite aussie voice.

[@JohanBesterYourVocalCoach]

Thanks Ian! I'll check it out!

[@candydandy2694]

I am obsessed! Not so much with Bella, although she is amazing! But I am more obsessed with you Sir! Your musical ear, your talented ability to pinpoint the nuances, and mostly your exquisite voice! How can I get to hear more of your vocal talents Sir? And to learn with you? I would love that please!

[@simonebrooks1124]

Absolutely love this analysis

[@Tiberius2187]

excellent analysis

[@marlidossantos4373]

Amazing! MARAVILHOSA !!!!!!

[@czechmate9497]

I love your reactions! Never stop!

[@cyprianuslilikk.p.7937]

You give amazing review about her, yes Bella also Amaze me for her control and versatility. I love how you give your react. You speak from a deep understanding of performance. It makes me run along your reaction videos, and I wonder how can you not yet react to 2 others wondergirls, Diana Ankudinova (try "Rechenka" and "Cant help falling in love with you") and Angelina Jordan ("Song for A" "I put a spell on you", and "Bohemian Rapsody"). I want to listen your opinions about them.

[@xochitllee24]

Honestly, I love hearing Johan sing as much as the signers and seeing how excited he gets with technique! So much fun to watch :-)

[@fts4608]

I would like to know more about how to care for my vocal muscles as I had no formal training . Thanks for sharing your comments . Thought provoking

[@TV-el6uj]

Thank you for identifying the uplifting spiritual and connected qualities of the art of singing. Well done. I think you will have more traffic if you reduce your opening commentary, in case that is important to you, but I enjoyed it..

[@holohulolo]

Yeah saw where it was going I skipped right when the he plays the performance.

[@marissakeynes2532]

Very moving 🧡

[@more1091]

Your comments are so right on about everyone!! What’s your name? You say it so fast!

[@elismycat]

I really enjoyed your comment. Very educational! Thanks! Do you do online voice coaching?

[@CanWeGetDeep]

Sorry I’m late to the party but if you haven’t already, you really should react to Brian Justin Crum’s audition. His Creep cover. Absolutely amazing

[@mosart7025]

Her singing voice (at the beginning) sounds like what We Ani's singing voice should sound like, based on her speaking voice

[@cherylkurucz8852]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@paulkaire3903]

React to Stan Walker Ultralight Beam

[@jkr2105]

You got one sub

[@linarasiqueira6038]

What do you think about James Arthur (The X factor UK)?

[@invista4134]

She is a gospel singer in a church, to answer your question, who she is...! She is supporting her sisters and brothers after her parents, which is why you find the girl whooping in the side of the stage. That's her little sister.

[@aaronsetzer9247]

I'd love to get your take on will Ramos one take vocal of to the hellfire

[@weirdhuman7008]

Ya baby

[@victorcamargo4904]

[@GigiJitariu]

O fetita care se joaca

[@maeelectronics]

"The cult of personality" obsessions.

[@Bellas1717]

Jess was upset even more when Bella won. 😅

[@staerrynight7632]

Can you react to BTS's Park Jimin's voice?

[@lordgamertv2400]

Fala de mais !! Não aguentei assistir o vídeo todo pois está falando muito e reagindo pouco!
