Voice Teacher Reacts to Tori Kelly "Crazy" Seal Cover Live @ SiriusXM

[@debsamuels7626]

You giggling at how amazing Tori Kelly is really made me smile 😘

[@TheDominiqueBallou]

Tori is top 10 elite singers of all time

[@_misselle]

ALL. TIME.

[@lukasavic3636]

For sure, queen

[@bmediahq2726]

PERIODT

[@pingidjit]

for real

[@GilbertGTV]

Who would you put as the other 9? I think whether or not I would agree depends on who you would place in those slots

[@r3mm13arts]

Tori gives me chills, I don't understand how someone could be this good. Its similar to how Sohyang blows my mind but for different vocal styles. They're both so so SO skilled.

[@mohammedbenhammou3901]

For me ariana grande blows my mind because of her technique and her voice and she’s so talented 😊

[@daliamccloud1316]

To me as a fan of hers forever I can tell she’s right where she wants to be. So many people always wonder why “she’s not more famous” but I think it’s because she does what she wants and keeps her fan loyal

[@HH-yq6ch]

Absolutely! This may offend many but to me that’s self-respect and appreciation right there! She does not need affirmations from the outside world!

[@JordyJRT]

Omg I think I probably requested for this 2 years ago, so glad you finally reacted! Thanks Sam

[@SamJohnsonVoice]

Hope you enjoyed it!

[@bmediahq2726]

She was BORN to sing. Shes one of the most effortless singers in the world. WOW

[@ericvinson4628]

Truth!

[@ExistentialIdiot]

5:58 makes me think that you are actually probably a terrific teacher. Like, the lack of defensiveness and the fact that you are kind to yourself seems like it would be really infectious and make other people comfortable trying things too.

[@melotone_ale]

Yes, absolutely! I watched Sam's videos for about 3 years before I finally booked a lesson with him and what you said was one of the reasons why. I've been doing lessons with him for a few months now and this teaching style is exactly what has helped me get out of my own head and make the progress I didn't think was possible for me.

[@brightwitch]

As a student for 3(?) years, can confirm, Sam is a terrific teacher 😄

[@SamJohnsonVoice]

you two

[@graceotto1442]

Can confirm, seriously an incredible vocal teacher AND human

[@liam00]

I listened to the live performance of her Christmas album she did a couple of years ago, and it's pretty incredible.

[@RemnTheteth]

She's always been one of my favorite vocalists. So fun to see you laugh when she pulls off something incredible, because I feel the same way. Incredible talent.

[@Karen-Campos]

Tori and Scott Hoying are so immaculate with their riffs & runs, they can just melt the listeners heart! As they mature, they get better and better!

[@carlossosa2907]

Tori has been a victim of her own talent and the agenda of the current music industry in my opinion... there is (almost) no one singing better than her out there

[@sooahnim]

She's had some amazing tracks recently, they just go under the radar because they're not promoted in the current mainstream way of promotion. It's kind of sad, but I'm glad she's at least acknowledged to be one of the greatest of this generation of singers.

[@Sttephy30]

She needs better songwriters and producers. That's her problem.

[@tommybelval8947]

@@Sttephy30 she’s working with jon bellion who is one of the best producer and songwriter for her next album so hopefully it’ll be good

[@MyLife_1988]

i think ariana got her beat but shes good

[@benjjjjsin]

@@MyLife_1988 I find Tori’s songs way more difficult technically tbh. She’s definitely a stronger vocalist

[@janisjoplin4647]

The “Chef’s Kiss” was the perfect non-verbal way to describe her singing ability

[@benjjjjsin]

Really one of my favorite covers to go back to. Every note and musical choice is perfection

[@zwizh]

Okay, last video I said I don't like a lot of run-heavy stuff because it feels mushy so often. These runs are 100% mush-free.

[@HH-yq6ch]

That’s Tori’s talent lol

[@gley129]

I love seeing a Tori Kelly reaction in your channel! I absolutely love her and think she’s just phenomenal. Would love to see you checking out some more of her. Thanks Sam!

[@alesamaa]

i love love loveee that you reviewed this! this cover that she did is one of my fav performances of her, I love the vocal arrangement, the journey she takes us vocally, starting mellow and building it all the way up.. the amazingly fun instrumental arrangement they did it’s so awesomely groovy.. i’m serious, i know every lil thing she does here by heart, that’s how much ive listened to it 😂 im a tori kelly lover and student. So when I saw you reviewed it, it was a Fast click for me 😅 your commentary is on point as always Sam! thank you!❤

[@oscarcallahan159]

You know if you're trying to learn a couple Tori Kelly riffs, I'm pretty sure Natalie Weiss has some Breaking Down the Riffs eps on her!

[@a.c.5604]

OMG been waiting for you to do this forever!

[@dimasindra4760]

I love this! you should react more to her. she's a vocal beast!

[@Crash7031]

Her song Language is one of her best songs and Vocals I would say if you haven't heard it you should definitely check it out.

[@MrGaryjbox]

She amazed me even when she was young...truly a gift.

[@auroraa606]

LOVE tori kelly and would love more reaction videos to her ❤

[@luckyarchery]

Tori could just sing me to sleep. Her voice is so sweet and smooth...

[@liana4454]

Loved your energy in this video, thank you for your analysis! I enjoy learning more even if the only singing I do is for myself, heh. And thank you for these reactions, you helped me find Aurora and other artists that I totally love now ♥️

[@robertarran4830]

Her songwriting is actually good, it's just not commercial and doesn't have catchy production. Her next project appears to be Rnb so I predict she's gonna thrive in that genre

[@ValentinoPresutti]

you should react to her newer stuff (her waving through a window cover for example) since she's improved vocally 🤩

[@limitlessjas]

As a Toraay (Tori Kelly's fandom) i am glad this was recommended to me. Thank you for your input 😄

[@cerealmilkshake]

this is such a lovely reaction video, love tori and your reaction was very insightful!!

[@carrieleslie903]

She is so good! Thanks for sharing this one.

[@xblvckpinkx]

YESS MORE TORI PLS

[@brainardaxton]

I've been waiting for Tori Kelly's reaction videos since ages ago from reactors out there🥲 and finally. We need more reactions to Tori

[@michaelstridi478]

I've never heard Tori singing bad! Reaching her ability to sing should be the goal of everyone who wants to sing very good!!

[@JCKILLED737]

Please it would be amazing if you analyze her performance of Joy To The World for Christmas season!!

[@ValentinoPresutti]

YES

[@JordyJRT]

Yessssss 🤩

[@divaluxe_]

pleaseeeeeeeeee!!!!!

[@HH-yq6ch]

Absolutely but the while livestream would be even better!

[@JDWindtPlaysGuitar]

btw the musicians are GREAT in this one

[@themeanlesbeann]

Tori and Jojo for me are the best vocalists in the game right now. Their technique is nearly flawless. And when they sing together? Oh man forget about it 🤌

[@catlinsam]

Awesome analysis! There are so much great tips you are sharing in this video!

[@OliviasCatastrophe]

Loved this reaction. Tori is amazing and deserves WAY more hype, I agree.

[@carlossalcedoizarza2785]

Tori is just in a whole different level.

[@michelfiscal2000]

Hi, Sam! I'm glad you've reacted to one of my favorite singers, I really enjoyed the video. Also, I wanted to give you a recommendation. Last week, Paramore performed in the Jimmy Fallon's show, and I loved how Hayley sang. I don't know anything about singing, but I hope you can give it a shot. P.S. Besides having a good time while watching your videos, I have been improving my English, I don't miss one. :b

[@franss7554]

How her name is not soaring to the top of every chart is beyond me. What a brilliant vocalist and amazing artist.❤️❤️❤️🫡🫡🫡

[@Treasurethemagicvacations]

Ugh she is SO good!! I love her voice so much 😍❤️!! I would really LOVE to hear your thoughts on some of my favorite worship/Christian music singers! Taya(hillsong united), Naomi Raine(Maverick city music), Katie Torwalt, Kim Walker-Smith, and Tasha Cobbs just to name a few 😁!

[@Treasurethemagicvacations]

@samjohnsonvoiceyouwonaprizedmv does this mean you’re going to make a video for me 😆🤞?!

[@hansmolders1066]

Best cover I heard yet!

[@oscarcallahan159]

Love myself some Tori

[@ntstudio28]

Love you Tori!!

[@dawg9]

There HAS to be a reason she's not a mega star. She's a cheat code

[@bearkun6414]

Tori is one of my most favorite singers. Thank you for reacting to one of her videos. Can you react to La Diva's reunion performance (Angels brought me here)?

[@RedRoseSeptember22]

Tori is amazing ♥I love her and she sounds a lot like Ariana Grande, maybe better I dare say lol. I especially love her as Meena the elephant from SING and SING 2 ♥

[@vildayoga1654]

Oh! Speaking of yelling! Would love to see you react to Björk - Play Dead. There most be some video of her doing it live somewhere.

[@rls0123]

9:13 The expression on your face during this next section had me so worried 😂 I should’ve known it was a good reaction after the chef’s kiss lol 🤌

[@facu_k961]

would love a reaction of tori cover of 'the only exception' one of her best performances

[@zjmzjh]

Love

[@Mariiji]

You should react to her performance on the Colbert show unreharsed of her song language. Amazing

[@VocalAttitude]

Yeah I'm in this rare state of mind rn where literally anything anyone says is just double entendre to me and I apologise to everyone who has read this and now rewatches this video with that framework in mind.

[@wannurirdina2655]

omg yes u finally react to her!! now im just going to wait for the day u react to Red Velvet 🥰

[@ChandJah]

Can you react to Anahita & Apoorva | Vaiyyam Alandu | Nadanamakriya | Oothukaadu Venkata Kavi (MadRasana)?

[@UTxTheArchangel]

There has to be something to what you said about her not becoming a star. I recall seeing her in a commercial and was thinking "Who is this chick, her voice is amazing." Never found out who she was. Until I saw your video and thought "Hey that looks like the chick from the ad". And now we're all learning how shady and screwed the music industry is. Its kinda like politics, labels are owned by corporations, those corporations push who they wanna push based on what seems to be trending. Bc of this a lot of really good talent gets ignored bc they aren't getting spotlighted on award shows(owned by the same corporations that own the labels), not getting spotlighted on charts(also owned by the same corporations that own the labels)....you basically have to find hidden gems via the internet mentioning them or seeing a youtube video.

[@HH-yq6ch]

So around 7:00 mark you attribute much of Tori’s vocals to her trainer but I have to disagree. Of course without a doubt her trainer has helped her LOADS, I am sure. But this girl was singing amazingly at just 10-11 years old. Check out her vids here on KZbin. Her pitch control and melisma were insane for her being that young and I’ve yet to see a competitor in that age range aside from Jazmine Sullivan.

[@GarageStudio7]

Didn't she have voice training, even then? He's not saying she's not naturally talented however voice training has helped her a lot and there's nothing wrong with that.

[@jeagerpoelse]

Mononeon version is even crazier (haha get it) should check that out, just for yourself

[@sweetpea7292]

Not me not reading the whole title and expecting her to be singing patsy cline. 😂

[@Carsrock987]

Good choice

[@justinmayberry6998]

She should try to get the ability to cover this as a legit single. I think it’s been long enough and this is different enough. I feel like it could be huge.

[@Caikey]

when are you reacting to lara fabian??

[@utsukushijinsei1571]

Hope you can react to KZ Tandingan's covers 1. Say Something 2. Rolling in the Deep 3. Royals

[@carlasouza5306]

Meeeennaaaaa

[@eduardohenrique6151]

please, react to morissette amon - gusto ko ng bumitaw live band performance 😔

[@user-vh3ug5sw1e]

Can you please react to Alessia Cara’s Destiny’s Child medley ?

[@patriciaalexandra96]

✨✨✨❤️❤️❤️

[@shielamaetenorio8103]

Hi Sam! Can you react to Avril Lavigne vocals? Would like to hear your reaction to her. ;) xoxo

[@RagdoIl]

Would love to see your analysis on Sia.

[@wetburp]

hii sam i was wondering if you can please react to pink’s performance of hopelessly devoted to you at the ama’s thank yeeeww❤

[@utenassauer2610]

Podrias analizar a Diana Navarro, cantante española

[@mouhamedkassem8938]

Please react to Jennifer Hudson "pruple rain"

[@myleshiasmith1813]

Aaron Neville needs to be next

[@Maxon-x3t]

At 2:38 thats not at all how she sang that vowel.

[@rydbthatsme]

Why she’s not in Ariana’s spot I’ll NEVER understand. Her & JoJo both are 10x the vocalist she is.

[@eduardohenrique6151]

this comparison doesn't make any sense lol, ariana is where she deserves to be!

[@oscarcallahan159]

@R yeah idk about that chief, JoJo and Tori may be technically better than Ariana, but that doesn't mean Ariana isn't a FANTASTIC vocalist herself.

[@GetWellSoonR.E.M.]

Hey now, don’t discount Ari. She is no slouch in the vocals department lol

[@MichaelMcCloud29]

Ariana is one that is actually really good. One of the best high belts and she has quite good vocal skills and runs too. I wouldn’t put her above either Jojo or Tori but she can hang in their company

[@_jusvibe]

Tori, Jojo & ari are all around the same level really just depends on your preference. Ariana literally deserves all her success don’t try to bring someone else down to lift them up.

[@triffus]

She's like if Britney Spears could sing.

[@thomasag2765]

Love your videos Sam! Would be super cool if you reviewed a classic? Christine Mcvie and Fleetwood Mac singing “everywhere”? Anywho, keep it up man you’re awesome

[@adedayod-one7470]
