Perrie Edwards Singing Voice Before and After Tonsils Surgery

!!OBS OBS OBS: NOT MY VIDEOS!! - I JUST FOUND SOME ON KZbin AND COMBINED THEM TO ONE VIDEO! ALL CREDIT TO THE OWNERS OF THE CLIPS!!

[@rab0604]

Her old voice sounded like she was singing with a thick cold but still managed to sing like an angel. Now she just sounds like she got over that cold and grew a lot stronger!

[@VamVimVom]

I actually agree, haha.

[@eleniiliopoulou4012]

She had a problem with them, and of course she sounds better after she removed them... but oc, her voice was always amazing!! :))

999 likes now :)

[@v__nikolaou8624]

In my opinion, it sounds so much better now. To me it sounded like she had constantly something stuck in her throat back in the days, idk..Now it's actually one of the most beautiful voices ever.

[@ammaarahali2119]

I feel like her voice is more stronger now but it was still amazing before

[@averyprofessionalmieke]

I absolutely agree. It was good and strong before but it just sounds a lot clearer and so so so amazing now, she is SO incredible

[@jay_ooh]

Yes totally!!! she sounded so nasally too...it was good...but so much clearer now

[@laurenmcginness1771]

V__ Nikolaou I agree but her voice was beautiful before and after

[@rachelv3225]

She did have something in the back of her throat... Her tonsils ;)

[@adelinaSG16]

after the Tonsils Surgery her voice is more powerful and stronger and higher

[@thenere4007]

adelinaSGk definitely louder 😂

[@savm5917]

adelinaSGk agreed

[@theshadestartsnow9818]

her tone is way more open! its great!

[@mc1095]

adelinaSGk and longer 😂

[@CarolJuvenil]

Exactly!

[@artinauka7532]

I prefer her voice now, it's more soft and girly but still powerfull

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

People need to realise it was just the surgry that changed her voice but also the fact shes had training and gotten older.

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

***** Are you that much of an idiot? Thats literally what i just said

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

***** Sweetheart. Im not an american either. You are generally an idiot who doesn't know how to read

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

***** Well you clearly dont know how to read and are generally an idiot. Seriously do you even know how to construct a sentence without waffling about nothing?

[@TheNonMakeupGuru]

***** Im sorry, but what on earth are you going on about you idiotic nazi?

[@eline55]

+TheNonMakeupGuru Are you always this much "fun" to be around? God, stop insulting people.

[@megford4261]

i knew something changed with her voice, I didn't know it was because of her tonsils. thank you

[@puppyeyes49]

true

[@lovechoerrymotion5086]

Meg Ford me either

[@evabiddle4370]

Meg Ford me neither

[@ariprince7219]

Meg Ford same

[@Sarah-gj8fw]

Personally I prefer her deeper voice. She's obviously stronger now but I really loved her deep/low voice

[@chloestar1233]

+Dangerous Sarah i agree tbh but her voice is amazing now!

[@khald5682]

Same, she can reach higher notes now and with more ease but her colour was way more prominent before, making her more unique than ever.

[@yoongispower7492]

same:(

[@MadiHoodStyles]

Im my opinion, idc if she got her tonsils out or not.. SHE STILL SOUNDS SO FREAKIN AMAZING!!!! #mixer4life

[@VamVimVom]

Indeed :)

[@lauraws1452]

You can hear the difference in the beginning of their song "DNA" and "Shout out to my EX"

[@jay_ooh]

Good comparison!! fine example of an opening Perrie solo as well !!!

[@VamVimVom]

Maybe a part 2 would do, since this video is 2 and a half years old.

[@btng]

When I was discovering little mix, I had only heard the live version of DNA, so when I heard the studio version I thought "Who is that!???", then I googled it and found out about Perrie's surgery

[@jennastark47]

it sounds better to me. its clearer now like that perfect voice was hidden behind a slightly cloudier version (STILL GOOD) but less thick and its just ugh amazing

[@chadissmexyyeah]

I actually prefer her voice with her tonsils though she sounds amazing either way . I like huskier and thicker voices they're full of soul and more unique.

[@alphawolf1581]

chadissmexyyeah same

[@taniaa8584]

chadissmexyyeah same

[@laurenmcginness1771]

chadissmexyyeah yea but even now her voice is unique no one sounds the same as any one and I love her kind of accent

[@twintina17]

chadissmexyyeah like Whitney Houston would be more of the first one and Mariah Carey would be the second one lol!!!

[@heljaa750]

Yeah Same

[@migalep790]

Before or after she still has a power and beautiful voice. I love Perrie Edwards.

[@georgiaf3086]

She will always sound good no matter what. The problem is that i think i really miss that deep sound in her voice !!!!

[@toroprathisto]

that's the matter of the technical "choice"

[@nataliagraham7248]

before she sounded like she had a cold and her nose was stuffy and now her voice is softer

[@LovingTheTommoDrama]

You can clearly hear her voice now! Oh how they've grown. Honestly, she sounds better now because even on the x-factor, she had to be on vocal rest A LOT because of her tonsils, and now they take good breaks to make sure their voices won't go out.

[@CamillaOlsen]

I wouldn't say that Perrie's voice is almost the same now as before. I would say her voice is a bit lighter now. Her voice was a bit "heavy" to listen to sometimes before.

[@fonjadidi]

she has an amazing voice, with better techinique comes differetent sounds, and voices are forever evolving.

[@nozil-tz4sm]

Her old voice was beautiful because it was so so deep and her new voice is beautiful because it's powerful

[@ashlie6141]

She still sings beautifully, but I really miss that deep, full sound to her voice. The tonsils incident was a true travesty, but I mean, Perrie is still effing amazing.

[@Christs_Soldier]

Ashlie Forrester Ugh thank you! I thought I was the only one who adored her voice before the surgery. Like you said, it's still amazing, but there was something in that old voice that was so rich and royal and mesmerising. Although others call it cloudy and nasal and as if she has a cold, that voice was... too good.

[@Chinouk]

👏👌

[@amywestall4333]

i loved perrie talking back then ❤️😍

[@madeleinetierney8993]

You could argue that the 'thick' sound was a style choice, but in reality the clearer, more open sound is due to training and a better technique.

[@VamVimVom]

I repeat, there was a significant change right after the surgery and that is in fact due to the tonsils being removed, and her voice resonates differently

[@emmaharwood1419]

Yeah, you could argue that. That being said, I just had mine out, and even my speaking voice is much higher and thinner. My singing voice sounds like a different person (to me, at least). I really am not happy with it.

[@jinochillies]

She definitely sounds better now. Her voice blends better with the other girls' too

[@NiaBoo321]

In my opinion, she still has her deep/husky voice. If you listen to their newest music she can still sing pretty low

[@ned.5326]

If you call this a voice change,you haven't heard Harry styles still

[@VamVimVom]

what is your point

[@leidybach982]

grismorblomst he's just saying that her voice don't change as much Harry's do

[@leidybach982]

grismorblomst he's just saying that her voice don't change as much Harry's do

[@VamVimVom]

X larrymayne X That still doesn't mean, that Perrie's voice haven't changed, so I don't get why bringing this up would be relevant?

[@cocoacherios]

His voice changed a lot?

[@katmarie4812]

I loved her voice before just as much as I love it now!! But honestly it doesn't even matter, she's always had those killer vocals!

[@noahjaybee]

That "thick" sound is the lack of air traveling up through the nasopharynx (behind the nose, above the soft palate) and is often considered a nasal sound when a little air passes through (sounds like hers did not allow any, or so little that you couldn't hear it). The resonance you get in the facial sinuses really makes a difference to the tone of a voice.

[@cherrybomb5450]

I love her before and I love her even more now! Yeah her voice is deeper before and now its less deeper but still deep. And I think her vocal skill is even better now.

[@MarthaRose92]

I wouldn't say thinner but it's much lighter. She's still fantastic, and if anything the open sound has helped her improve her range.

[@VamVimVom]

I don't think it affected her range, I just think her pitch is higher.

[@MarthaRose92]

grismorblomst You're right, range was the wrong word.

[@jhanvihemlani8248]

I love both her voices.

[@TrinaVega119]

I loved her more thicker sound in the early days buy no matter what she is amazing...I just wish that she calms down on the straining of her voice cause lately she seems to push it during performances

[@alphawolf1581]

Spongebob Squarepants same

[@desix7710]

She still slayin everyone

[@tesslune1985]

OMG! Now I know why she sounds so different in their second album! Thank You! :D

[@redc4899]

to be honest i like her voice now than before. i didn't even know her voice changed cause i'm just a new fan lol but anyway compared to her previous voice her voice now is more open ang light and i like that. her previous voice sounds kinda like christina aguilera -ish now i wonder what if christina aguilera had gone to surgery will her voice be more open and light too? lol but anyway perrie's still great no matter what :)

[@Zoe_t1]

yeah I agree. her voice is much more pleasing to listen to now. Before the surgery it sounded quite heavy

[@scorpio.stellium]

i feel like im the only one who likes her before voice better.

[@purpleteardropss]

no, you're not ;)

[@audiophilian]

I prefer her voice now SOOO much more. The thing I love about her is that her voice is deep and full, yet she hits high notes effortlessly with great resonance. It sets her apart from the countless lyric sopranos in music. The surgery also made her head voice lighter and more flexible.

[@luna4037]

Omg her voice after is sooo cute, I love her thick voice smmmmm thooo tooooo!! Both are so amazing. The thickness makes (still does btw) her voice sound super unique!

[@AngelinaStyles1]

I think her voice sounds better after the surgery

[@VamVimVom]

You guys really have some amazing conspiracy theories, but the fact is that she did undergo surgery and the difference is caused by the tonsils being removed. Her voice resonates differently. That's all. No change in her vocal chords. It it not due to puberty, cameras, different recordings, better technique etc.

[@htraveller21]

grismorblomst THANK YOU

[@DistressedAndImpressed]

grismorblomst Do you think that she ALSO got her Adenoids removed/shaved?

[@VamVimVom]

no, sorry

[@officialns5583]

grismorblomst Like what conspiracy theories

[@ChuckleHoneybear]

Youre fucking stupid

[@giadadelrusso9904]

It was beautiful before but i like it more now, i find her voice a lil bit less "nasal" and more light and powerful. But i love her so much!

[@reina2081]

The only thing that I miss about her "old voice" is the huskiness that she had. The thickness. It was really unique and I loved that. Now she does this growl kinda thing and I don't like it at all!!! She's forcing her voice and it sounds awful. I get really worried when she does that because it can damage her voice and she's got such a lovely voice. I'd hate for her to mess it up. 😕😕😕😕

[@dribaby98]

Growls are actually pretty common in songs and she doesn't do them too much, not really. Like if you see performances and tour videos recently, she kind of holds off on that because I think she realizes it's not very good either. Also, if you listen very closely in some songs, she still has a tad of that thickness left.

[@khald5682]

She doesn't growl that much; she lowers her larynx to get the thick sound she had before

[@cocoacherios]

Zenith Zaafir She lowers her larynx? Well that's gonna do damage to her voice as well. I hope she practices healthy singing habits.

[@rafael3817]

CocoaCheerios she doesn’t lower her larynx unhealthily. Opera singers have done it for centuries and they’re known to have a crazy amount of longevity. Perrie’s larynx is often a bit lower than where it naturally is but it merely increases the space and makes her voice sound more full and powerful.

[@eleniiliopoulou4012]

Her voice might have changed a bit, but she still sounds amazing and she is the absolute queen!! :) Lots of love to Pez! :)

[@devonnemarie2835]

i actually really liked the thickness of her voice

[@chelseak2850]

Devonne Marie same

[@srinidhivg2228]

her voice is much much better than her old old voice.the high notes are very very clear and sharp after her surgery.wwwoooooowwwwww

[@amanafire2256]

after she got her tonsils out, perrie started lowering her larynx in order to deepen her voice and sound like she did before. she's stopped it now, i think, which is healthier for her voice. her old voice was very nice, but she got sick a lot and it was hard for her to reach high notes. now, her vocal chords are free and it's easier for her to sing.

[@VamVimVom]

Yeah well, she already sang with a low larynx back then and she still does occasionally

[@amanafire2256]

yeah but usually to reach low notes

[@ReddersTV]

Her voice sounds cleaner now I think. She's easier to understand when she sings.

[@ajsupergirl123]

She sounds amazing either way! I feel like the surgery had a little something to do with it, but also that she just got older, my voice used to be deep when I was younger and as I've gotten older it has gotten more high and pitchy than what it was before! She's amazing either way. I just think her voiced matured as she got older, although i do sometimes miss that low raspy voice!!

[@varunravi27]

One advantage of her getting surgery: - Her tone sounds/sounded much brighter and way more open instead of it being guttural like it used to be. One disadvantage of her getting surgery: - Her technique (especially when belting) worsened for the six years that followed the year of her surgery (but this was only a temporary problem because starting from last year, she became consistent with C5 again... she's still not as good of a belter as she was before her surgery but she'll get there soon!)

[@jillian7454]

.... Getting your tonsils removed doesn't change your voice. You loose your voice for a week or so, then its back to normal. Her voice changed because she grew up, and her voice matured. Just my two cents.

[@VamVimVom]

+Hayley Mikaelson I disagree

[@jillian7454]

grismorblomst I've had my tonsils + adenoids removed, and my voice hasn't changed at all.

[@VamVimVom]

Hayley Mikaelson that doesn't mean it can't happen to others

[@jillian7454]

grismorblomst Actually, doctors have proven that getting your tonsils and/or adenoids removed doesn't affect your voice. Other then the first week where you have to rest your voice to let everything heal, but since your tonsils don't affect your vocal cords there is no effect after they are removed.

[@VamVimVom]

Hayley Mikaelson Perrie's voice has definitely changed due to her tonsils and not her maturing. Can you show me your sources, because I have a hard time believing you?

[@josephwilson5051]

i just love her no matter what

[@sethbrolsma516]

Her voice sounds less plummy - meaning husky, like when you have a cold - but it’s basically the same. You have to factor in audio quality, venue, age, and just the day of the performance. If you’re winded your voice is going to sound different than if it’s your first song. If she’s congested or has a nasal infection, her voice will sound a bit different. There are other factors than her tonsils being removed. In order to prove that, I’d need a straight on video of her singing before surgery and then one after she’s healed to say there’s a noticeable difference.

[@jessicalangan9667]

her singing style has improved so much and she sings better now

[@exquisitaeye]

i knew something was odd about her voice...

[@noelia.mp4]

I'm in love with both her voices 😍

[@dhrubaintisher8169]

It's like Demi Lovato Her voice changed drastically after her tonsils were removed.

[@lonerEmpath]

dhruba intisher true but now demi voice is amazing

[@varunravi27]

@@Kamil1161 Actually, Perrie also lowered her larynx (a lot) after her surgery to make her new voice sound similar to her old voice but it was mostly in late 2014/early 2015 that she started doing it because that's when the darkness in her voice was starting to reduce. She stopped doing it nowadays because her voice is almost the same as it was back in 2011/2012 as a result of pregnancy and ageing.

[@muun279]

She still sounds beautiful from when she was on x factor her voice just got better and better and she still sounds great and beautiful 👌💘

[@luna4037]

I LOVE HER THICK VOICE! I LOVE BOTH VOICES

[@annikaurps]

Well it opened up her voice more and that helped her get bigger high notes

[@alberthounslow1450]

Her voice has gained so much clarity and agility!

[@vampirej]

Still luv her voice and her personality Perrie 4 life

[@ritzOliveira98]

i actually prefer the after version because before she was great too but sounded really nosy, i sound like that when im sick

[@ASMR-JMelliee]

I actually thought that Perrie didn't have a solo in Turn your Face since I'm used to her singing voice she has today so this blew my mind a bit (I never though of searching the song on YT or for the lyrics to find out)

[@missy6110]

Sometimes I watch this to hear her thick voice. It was just beautiful

[@idilzengin1723]

She always sounded so good but I think after the surgery her voice tone went brighter and cleaner and I like that

[@eleeveeayees3425]

Her voice now has more freedom.

[@jeanrosepintal9096]

Oh... i thought it was just her maturing. Her voice now is clearer and sharper. Although it makes her less distinct as sometimes on the not so high notes i mistake her for jeed.

[@leoniekedik5472]

She is still an amazing singer ❤️

[@damsapollo]

Perrie Edwards' voice is more mature in the group, with rasp and also really high. That is why I love her.

[@eunoia9426]

I like her voice before when it comes to singing.. but I also like her voice after surgery when it comes to talking.. my opinion...

[@trey5938]

her old voice sounds like shes singnig with gauzes' in her mouth

[@gingerfrosty7]

getting your tonsils out as a singer is the scariest thing ever... i did it and it did change my voice... it's not bad or a big change but it will change it

[@CoCo2796]

Honestly I think it's just because her voice matured a bit and changed as she got older. That happens with everyone.

[@ToniArcelinni]

I love her voice NOW, it sounds clearer and better

[@ashleighgracesinclair7766]

her voice was much thicker back then and clear and thinner now, i love both

[@KilljoysEternal]

Well, Patrick Stump from Fall Out Boy had a really deep voice back in 2009, and it changed after the hiatus.

[@littlemixlegends3669]

I Love perries Voice before and now . Perrie is my Idol 😍😍 she is amazing

[@htrxox4535]

Tonsils don't have a lasting effect on the voice,it might sound hoarse a bit after surgery for a couple of days but that's it.shes gotten older so her voice obviously changed,nothing to do with tonsils.

[@lloydcage2929]

Does anyone know how long it took for her singing voice to come back cuz I got my tonsils out 4 weeks ago and it's not back

[@puglover7985]

lloyd cage i kinda lost my singing voice when i had mine removed. i dont sound the same and my voice cracks more often. its been a year since i had my operation.

[@hayleemitchell5351]

lloyd cage I got my tonsils out 4 years ago and im still waiting for mine. I would just keep trying

[@IdolEyes84]

When I was little I had my tonsils and adenoids removed, my mum said I had a deeper voice when I was little (my tonsils were always big, so when I was sick I could hardly breathe).

[@gabrielagarcia5700]

I love her deep voice.

[@baekxeetaexo-l6103]

she really has a amazing voice

[@sophiahanani1033]

Her voice sounds so different after the first album I didn't even recognize it as her, this explains it thank you!

[@ashleykinsella6421]

Im glad her voice is good after her operation and she is a good signer the best signer in little mix.

[@littlemixmusics5722]

Can you remind me why she removed it pls I forgot 😂

[@zxarriejashgutz2955]

pez so strong and everything what happens she's still strong

[@blaisebarrowcliff9474]

She sounds like Christina Aguilera at 1:40

[@purpleteardropss]

I've noticed that a lot of British female has thick voice like Perrie's before the surgery.

[@iceicebaby3044]

She sounds better after

[@Chinouk]

She sounds better both ways, but I actually liked the thickness in her voice. Her voice is lovely, I would love to have her voice tbh 🎤🎶

[@dmlm2098]

She developed beautiful voice cracks, her high notes are now more free but doesnt sound as whole as before

[@ZoeDelToro]

i love her voice either way but her voice definitely sounds better without them in my opinion

[@anabia6102]

I miss her old voice, but I love how she sounds now anyway

[@isabellaa3680]

Vicki 483 I agree

[@livcampbell3937]

i think she sounded really congested before the surgery. she still sounded like an angel

[@lil383]

This is making me miss her old voice 😢

[@islaedmonson-brown4230]

Perrie Edwards has an amazing voice. I have a new artist to listen too.

[@AleandroValente]

I liked her voice before but I love her new voice, but shes amazing either way

[@cutepuppy1867]

I got my tonsils out when I had problems with my hearing, and I do sound different, but you barely notice it. Same thing happened to Petrie.

[@CarolJuvenil]

I really enjoy her voice more after the surgery.

[@Jloofaz]

She slays either way

[@blackgothicrose89]

I had assumed she got her tonsils and adenoids out, which is normal procedure when getting a tonsillectomy. Adenoids can get swollen just like tonsils, but adenoids are behind the nose.

[@jiminwithjams]

HanadaMarie I actually had to get surgery for my adenoids when I was little but the doctor never called me for the surgery. And my voice always sounds like I have a cold

[@eitvydek6682]

I used to hate her voice but now it's amazing
