I love that he mostly chose to sing his B-Side ballads instead of popular title tracks for this. Proved to everyone once again that he is not just a great dancer/performer but also a phenomenal vocalist

[@mormel80]

move is an absolute revolutionary and amazing art piece

[@1oldcrow350]

Man sounds this good while being sick-I can't even. Voice can melt ya. Oh we know to watch him, we keep our eyes on him always. Honey that is exactly what the lyrics of Move imply.

[@MattheusSantos-sf3zb]

Taemin is one of my favorite Singers, he has everything he needs and knows how to use his weapons

[@Taywuxiang1961]

Taemin is so talented, so beautiful and graceful. A true artist.

[@JoobieLoobieSoobie]

He just makes me smile. So much talent and grace!

[@sleeplessnight03]

he really has a beautiful voice

[@bea_hae_tae9392]

Taemin cannot be categorized and there is no way he delivers what you expect, on the contrary, he always delivers something different, shocking fans and haters while leaving critics stunned as he pushes his limits. Idol for Idols

[@user-to5ml4ih7j]

Lee Taemin, so beautiful inside and out,his voice is Iconic just like him !!Thank you Roscoe! Is a Yes to the Taemin list💙

[@joycelevy3628]

Taemin is an incredible dancer and singer.

[@milindawilson9175]

"Taemin has a heck of a voice." Yep, you summed it up pretty good, that's precisely what the members of SHINee are known for. SHINee has been nicknamed CD-INee or CD-eaters for a reason. Sounding better live than their studio recordings is signature SHINee. If you know SHINee, then you know their vocal talent is unmatched and they are one of the most highly respected groups for their live vocal skills. Taemin's and SHINee's vocal talents are what the Killing Voice was invented for. Most of those songs you didn't recognize are iconic B-side songs that are fan favorites he performs in his solo concerts, which are often Japanese concerts. I really hope you will consider looking up all of those songs you haven't heard yet and maybe doing a reaction to his concert performances of them. :D He has performed almost all of his songs in concert and, as you are starting to discover, they take on a whole other dimension when performed live. For example, "Rise" is a must watch concert performance song that is one of his most epic Japanese concert performances. If you think it gave you goosebumps here, just wait until you see his concert performance. The performance you should watch is a clip that combines his songs "Soldier" and "Rise" in the same set. "Hypnosis" is one of Taemin's favorite ballads of his. So when he is asked to sing something off the cuff or acapella in interviews, etc. he often sings this song. You really have to hear him perform the full thing in concert. "I'm Crying" is also a B-side song, so there is no MV. You're just going to have to watch a live performance. ;) Fun fact: "Press Your Number" was originally written by Bruno Mars. It's the title track on Taemin's Press It album, so it has an MV. Taemin's "Black Rose" @Taemin The Stage performance video is also a must see. As you saw, it's a B-side song on his Act 1 Never Gonna Dance Again album, which is the album "Criminal" is also on. But you can't just listen to the song, the performance takes the song to another level. As I think you know, Taemin is the main dancer and a main vocalist of SHINee. However, because he is a member of SHINee, this means he can do it all. SHINee are known for the fact that there are no longer any fixed roles in their group, the main vocalists can rap and the rappers can fill in as main vocalists at any moment. Although, what they are really recognized for is as one of the best vocal groups to ever exist. All of the SHINee members are top tier singers and dancers. Plus, with SHINee you will never get the same thing twice. Everything Taemin releases will be a new style and sound and, yet, it will still be very "Taemin". As SM Entertainment's experimental boy group, SHINee are meant to be the first to do almost everything, and they are expected to come up with something new that no one has ever seen or heard before with every release of theirs. As Kpop's trendsetters, the members of SHINee reinvent the industry with every comeback. You may find this hard to believe after hearing his live vocals, but when Taemin debuted as a member of SHINee way back in 2008, he didn't have a whole lot of lines in their songs. People even used to make fun of Taemin's singing and they would say that he was tone deaf and couldn't sing. However, it's sort of a misconception that Taemin "couldn't sing." it wasn't that he couldn't sing, it was just that he debuted when he was so young -- he was only 14 years old -- that his voice hadn't really developed yet and he didn't really have a good grasp of how to use his voice and produce the sounds he wanted with it. So, in the beginning, when he sang, he was often flat or his voice cracked or he was off key or out of tune, etc. And because he was being compared to the other members of SHINee who are all 2 to 4 years older than him, and the other members had such phenomenal voices to start out with, it really made Taemin sound like he was lacking. (SHINee are considered THE premier vocal group that everyone dreams of being as good as.) That's why in SHINee's first few songs he only has a few lines, and most of the time he was just given big solo dance breaks to fill the stage at his parts in the song. However, as you probably know, if he was really tone deaf, he never would have become an SM Idol trainee -- SM would have put him on the dance track and probably steered him toward becoming a backup dancer -- and he definitely would have never become the amazing singer that he is today. Someone who is truly tone deaf is physically unable to hear the difference in the notes and is unable to carry a tune. Taemin has literally been recognized as one of the top two BEST dancers in all of Kpop by his peers and industry experts. (Kai from EXO -- who happens to be Taemin's best friend since trainee days, and a fellow member of the Kpop supergroup SuperM -- is the other top dancer.) That is why he has been nicknamed the Korean Michael Jackson. Everyone in the industry looks up to Taemin and idolizes him. But Taemin really wanted to prove to everyone that he wasn't just a dancer, so he spent a lot of extra time concentrating on vocal lessons and the other SHINee members -- especially Onew and Jonghyun (two of the best vocalists in the industry) -- spent some serious time coaching and mentoring him until he learned what it took to match their vocal range and to use his voice. (For the first year or more after SHINee's debut Taemin spent hours in vocal lessons and he would push himself every day until his nose would bleed because he was so tired and worn out, etc. He practically lived in the training rooms at SM Entertainment.) The ONLY thing the members of SHINee are not good at is lip syncing, so Taemin, and all the members of SHINee, have specifically trained since their debut, to build stamina and endurance, in order to be able to sing live for 3+ hours straight in concert, all while performing intense choreographies like what you have seen in Taemin's MVs, and still sound flawless. When you watch a live performance, you may be shocked because Taemin and SHINee sound so perfect live even though they are dancing so intensely, but that is why they are so highly respected by everyone. It's a running joke between fans and the members that you can tell when SHINee are lip syncing because they are so bad at it, that is why they avoid it at all costs. Therefore, when you hear SHINee sing, 95% of the time it will be live. Yes, over the years they have become better at lip syncing than they used to be, but now they have gained the reputation as the group that always sings live, so unless they are required to lip sync for a specific reason, what you will hear is live vocals. Other Idols and audio sound technicians, etc. who have witnessed the SHINee members performing live are always blown away, because in the parts of the song where most singers would take a break and rely on the backing track vocals to cover their voices so they can catch their breath and recover, this is where the SHINee members actually ramp it up and become their most powerful. Therefore, in Taemin's live performance he he is almost always singing live all while dancing full out. What makes SHINee so great is that even if they are singing acapella while performing high energy choreography, they sound just as amazing. That's why, even as rookies, senior artists would stop what they were doing to watch SHINee's rehearsals on music programs because SHINee's vocal talent is that impressive. When SHINee debuted, they were the first group to demonstrate how it was possible to sing live while performing complex choreography and still maintain stable vocals. Before SHINee, the thought within the industry was that it wasn't possible to sing live and also perform high intensity choreography at the same time. At that time, most groups would either sing live and have simple choreography, or they would have crazy cool choreography, but lip sync to their recorded vocals. SHINee completely changed the Kpop industry and upped the standard of what it meant to be an idol singer. Taemin -- and SHINee -- live is unmatched. It's literally referred to as the SHINee standard. It's the standard that all other groups strive to reach, and SHINee are the vocalists that all other artists try to emulate.

as a person who writes very long coomments all too often myself, I get it how you can get on a rroll but..I gotta say this is too much at once.....lol...but it's ok, I mean we all can choose to read or not, I know but....bruh, you wrote us a book.😏😆😆

[@KathyHussey063]

PS I love Taemin omg some of his performances & songs are killer, just great music, vocals andchoreo he slays at, then his visuals in concert will kill a human being....like Criminal is playing rigt now, Roscoe neeeeeeds to see the choreo version.

[@milindawilson9175]

@alvalamoureux1282 And thanks for your support and kindness, it means a lot too.

[@tracigrant5130]

Remember when taemin wasn't allowed to sing? Lol He's so amazing! Rise is probably my fave song ... or soldier. And the flame song. So many! 🩵🩵🩵🩵

[@sleeplessnight03]

it's not like the company didn't allow him to sing, when he debuted his voice was changing at the time and he wasn't getting vocal lessons, to not hurt his voice. he wasn't ready himself to sing during the debut. but then he worked really hard, and developed his natural talent

[@KoiFishy23]

Rise is my favorite Taemin song. Hard to put them in a list 😂. Each song is literally a masterpiece.

[@TheHekateris]

You must watch Soldier & Rise live. I can't say more than that, except it's everything.

[@angelakent362]

This completely!!! I can't even explain how beautiful this performance is!!!

[@CristlePera-rz3hx]

Its even beautiful

[@farahdormanesh4690]

Absolutely best and my favorite killing voice episode, he really shined ❤

[@helenofargos]

A SHINee 101 stream would be LONG but it would be SO GOOD. Glad you have an appropriate amount of love for Taemin 🥰

[@shawoltiny_ruru]

Even SHINee's b-side songs are so main that even Roscoe is surprised that the song doesn't have an MV. SHINee said in a program that they put everything they had that was perfect so that the album would be perfect and why they didn't say "we'll use this later" and they got in a lot of trouble every time.

[@roxanaheath8098]

❤ thank you for sharing this wonderful young person and his voice.

[@KootchLB]

Thanks for this reaction, Roscoe. With his sweet face and his friendship with Jimin I keep forgetting that he is actually the same age as Yoongi. His singing is a treat and he makes it seem so easy.

[@smi7leee]

Rise, live, with the dancer is AMAZING 😮

[@nneichan9353]

sadly my ears aren't the sharpest. but Taemin, such a distinct voice. love it.

[@Motaki666]

Rise always give me goosebumps 🤩@Roscoe you should watch one of his live performances of Rise, it's incredible 😍

[@staybyheart9021]

Uh!! my king!!! he's so talented!! thank you for your reaction!!

[@tiffanybennett8800]

He is awesome one of his songs that I think a lot of people don't know about is Holy Water I love that song gonna go listen to it right now 😁

[@JetLagRecords]

Roscoe, Wow, this made my day brighter! Thank you!

[@Alshawols-no6ye]

Taemin is an extraordinary singer and dancer... with Move he introduced genderless dance into K-pop... he has a unique voice like every member of Shinee. I also recommend you listen to Circle by Onew and Y si fuera Heya by Jonghyun ...two masterpieces 💎

[@KMYT185]

He is a powerhouse

[@Faisaltm2]

Taemin one of the greatest ever

[@marinal.]

Hi, i am back. Good reaction, ty. C is for Celine the brand that made the jacket, lol. This was awesome. So glad he was able to do this. New Taemin bias here. Only into him and Shinee for 1 year. =0] He slayed. He really showcased his vocals well. He looked so cute too. Gah. i need BTS to do this when they come back in 2025. UwU Love the new album. My fav songs are Sayonara Hitori, Move, Under my skin and Think Of You. Taemin did not renew his solo contract with SM. He is now with Big Planet as a solo artist. it was rumored they were talking with him for months before he made his final choice.

Kid Milli) 13:15 2 KIDS 14:05 괴도 (Danger) 14:58 Guilty @Lara-om7lj said on 11/4/23 In July during his birthday stream he was asked if he would do a killing voice video and he said that if he did, he will try to make it very general public friendly and recently he mentioned that his ballads aren’t popular compared to his other songs so he wanted to show these songs. also it’s kinda his first activity to focus on singing as a soloist so it make sense to take it a bit safer in song choices I personally love his ballads so I was shocked and happy when he did them some of them Hypnosis is kinda like a fan song at this point it’s one of his default tracks in setlists in everything and Rise is insanely popular, one of his best songs in my opinion. @triplej8666 said on 11/4/23 G#4 seems to be where Taemin's support peaks currently, and it seems to be his signature note as he knows his voice well. This is my favourite G# from him - kzbin.info/www/bejne/h16cgoeOisepnMU I occasionally hear some strain on his A4's but generally they carry shallow enough support nowadays, his support was extended far further to Bb and occasionally B in the 2012-2015 era, no doubt he was the best belter in shinee at that point and amongst the top 5 or 6 in k-pop, but he did run into some issues after that period (tight/throaty + some jaw tension noticeable around 2015/16) - you can hear it if you compare his Bb4's in 2012 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mXSQe5xunKx1Y80 to his B4's here in 2017 kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGS7d4B8aal0gsU which no doubt has to do with the change in approach to singing and a more breathy/whisper type of singing, but still, unreal improvement, no idol has ever improved so much in an aspect in their career and to be not only one of the best dancers in the industry but vocalists too is unreal. Good reaction and analysis - I would say he definitely can comfortably belt B4 maybe C5 nowadays but not with the same openness and support as his G#4 or A4's or his A4/Bb4's from 2012-2015. You can hear him belt a nice B4 here kzbin.info/www/bejne/nZ-2c6FjZ7uiY7M @milindawilson9175 said on 11/15/23 Most of those songs you didn't recognize are iconic B-side songs that are fan favorites he performs in his solo concerts, which are often Japanese concerts. I don't think you have watched very many of Taemin's solo concert performances, so that is probably why you don't know the songs. I really hope you will consider looking up all of those songs and maybe doing a reaction to his concert performances of them. You really need to check out more of Taemin's live performances. :D For example, "Rise" is a must watch concert performance song that is one of his most epic Japanese concert performances. The performance you should watch is a clip that combines his songs "Soldier" and "Rise" in the same set. You really have to check out Taemin's "Black Rose" @Taemin The Stage performance video. As you saw, it's a B-side song on his Act 1 Never Gonna Dance Again album, which is the album "Criminal" is also on. But you can't just listen to the song, the performance takes the song to another level. "2 Kids" has an MV that you should check out. It's the song that he released right before "Criminal" and it's part of the trilogy that is his Never Gonna Dance Again albums.

Apart from these amazing vocals, he is one of the best dancers in k-pop. Please react to TVXQ’s Killing Voice. From SM and 2nd Gen like Shinee. Also still v. active. So worth looking into as a group (duo) and soloists. They are legends in k-pop.

[@antidave]

Chat reducing such songs to just sex is so surface-level. The songs like Criminal are about himself and the different sides of himself. Guilty is supposed to make you feel guilty because the audience is just viewing it as a sexy performance when that's far from the truth of it and it has a darker theme. He was sexualized and feminized from such a young age so lots of that comes out in his song. He's barely accepted his androgynous side.

[@sleeplessnight03]

I think he accepted it now and uses it in his art, he said himself that he has a gender neutral charm. but it was indeed very difficult for him

[@antidave]

@user-mx7xz5cm6c yep that's why his first solo was danger he wanted to be masculine at the time because lots of people even in the industry would refer to him as a girl and try to flirt and touch him when he was underage too. Now he has embraced it for the art and himself.
