Tristan! I was here way before 1 million, and I see you have 2.3 million subs! Congratulations sweetheart. You totally deserve it. I love the hair too. I haven’t been here for a while, and I accidentally unsubscribed and re-subbed whatever. You look great, you are still doing quality vocal analysis, I totally respect your teachings. Thank you so much for continuing to give the platform high quality content! How much do you cost??? Edit: I applied, but I think my application will be denied based upon my age and goals. I don’t want to be a rock star. Also, I have no links to social media of me singing because I am over 35. It sucks because I just want more confidence in my singing. However, you can help people get fame! I can’t compete with it as my time is over for that (or is it?)

Hi Tristan can you please react to 'Shade: the Rusical' or 'Under the Big Top' or 'Rats: the Rusical' from RPDR xx

[@thechoz3none988]

You should totally review Amy Lees version of this song!

[@thinkingoutloud7851]

"Billie can't sing live"???!!! In what alternate dimension? Now admittedly, her concert performances can be a bit sketchy, but when she's not jumping and running around an enormous stage, her live performances are immaculate. Every. Single. One.

[@icantthinkofaname1062]

Also I kinda like how her concert vocals aren’t always perfect cause you can tell she’s having so much fun and you can feel her energy. I’d much rather see her jump around than have her sound perfect but just stand there lol

[@sakinaalia1067]

@@icantthinkofaname1062 yeah same. If I wanted her to sound exactly like the studio I’d listen to it instead of attending a concert. You attend a concert to hear her sing in person and the energy you get from being around other fans and the energy Billie gives. When she’s jumping around while performing and giving energy, which is part of attending a concert, her live vocals may be imperfect but it’s better than if she were to just stand in place and sing it exactly how she would in the studio.

[@thinkingoutloud7851]

@@icantthinkofaname1062 True enough. Knowing the kind of BS she has to deal with I really love the obvious joy she has in front of those crowds. To paraphrase the song, even her imperfections are perfect.

[@maddison946]

exactly I watched doja cat and then billie back to back in ACL last month. Doja was a preformance but it was all backtracked and sounded identical but she wasnt even signing. Billie was different from studio but it was all sung by her and made it so much more enjoyable. I thought she had the best stage presence and vocals from all preformances I saw that weekend.

[@amilehonstein1671]

@@maddison946 doja was also sick during acl so that's why. I loved billies and was my favorite as well.

[@fatsajak]

i love billie’s version. it’s so beautiful. she’s so talented. that said, catherine o’hara’s sing-talky “weak” sound fit the character of sally so well. plus she’s an absolute icon. two fabulous women right here. 🥰

[@Ash-yh5oy]

The people who say she can't sing live are just people who don't understand that physical activity can make you lose your breath and strain your voice a bit. She is a very active performer, of course that effects her voice on stage. And it's still good!

[@jordanmelven]

Catherine O’Hara’s voice acting and singing on Sally is so good. She really managed to transform Sally’s voice into something that is completely different and much lighter than her actual voice. You wouldn’t even know it’s her unless you were to look up the voice cast for “The Nightmare Before Christmas”. 👌

[@katelynculver991]

Haters literally need to stop being so mean. As you can see, almost every vocal coach thinks her voice is amazing. It doesn’t matter if she ‘whispers’. Her voice is wonderful, and it touches millions of hearts. They don’t have to like her voice, but they shouldn’t bully her because it’s not their style.

[@JREClipped_Shorts]

This song meshes well with her tone, causing this to be my favourite rendition/cover of this song

[@jaybonn5973]

Even if you don't like Billies sound, you gotta respect her technical abilities. This is a REALLY hard song to make sound good and she does phenomenal.

[@nicolcacola]

Billie is channeling some sultry Marilyn Monroe tones and it suits her SO well. Her beautiful silhouette is begging for a sparkly red dress at this point⏳😍

[@Lunaaa79]

"I am the vocal coach hiding under your bed" Lol I knew my nightmares couldn't have been a normal demon.

[@Kiss_My_Aspergers]

HOLY _FUCK,_ DANNY ELFMAN IS *70 YEARS OLD?!* Also, Billie's best trait imo - in this specific performance, I mean - is that she has the _motion_ down *perfectly.* Her voice sounds like a fallen autumn leaf getting caught up in a lonely wind through a cold, bare town. It literally fits the _setting_ of the movie, not just the character and/or aesthetics. It's PERFECT in that way. Remember when Katy Perry asked us if we ever felt like a plastic bag drifting through the wind? Sally answered, "Uh, well, I guess- um, does it still count if it's a leaf instead of a bag?" Katy's probably just been living in the city too long. I loved your enthusiasm and your utter, unbridled joy over the course of this video. I got a little teary at times, too. I think I might just be having my daily existential crisis, though. I literally forgot Catherine O'Hara was Sally, so I didn't make the connection to the face. She was responsible for quite a bit of our holiday enjoyment, it seems! _The Nightmare Before Christmas, Beetlejuice,_ AND the first two _Home Alone_ movies? We're lucky to have her! (Turns out she's Canadian, too!) But gosh, did the screen-tearing on that video make me feel old... How old are you, again? Were VCRs out by the time you were in primary school, or were they still common and regularly used in both households and schools at the time? Well, anyway. I feel old. Boohoo.

[@Lauren-wu4ib]

I appreciate the depth you've gone into writing this and that is the exact thought I had about a leaf falling calmly but then picks up in the wind. Honestly magical

[@AmandaDoyle]

Amy Lee did a great version of the song live on Jay Leno in 2008. She get's bonus points 'cause she also played the piano throughout the song and then finished off playing the harp. The harp, guys! Would love to see your thoughts on more of her work 🥰

[@louern123]

I’m gonna hunt it

[@louern123]

Hmmm ... I find her timing odd 😞

[@AmandaDoyle]

@@louern123 I get what you mean, and agree. This isn't really her type of cover, usually she takes a hard right and makes them really quite different than the original but when Walt Disney approached her to do this version for the '08 release of the "Nightmare Revisited" album I think she had to stay mostly true to the original. The album version is a better representation than her live on Jay. Her other covers like "Going to California" (Led Zeppelin), "It's a Fire" (Portishead), "Across the Universe" (the Beatles) & "Baby did a bad, bad thing" (Chris Isaac) etc are good if you like genuine re-interpretations of songs and not just someone singing the same song/melody in their own voice 🙂 ETA: Not making excuses for her either but I think her timing might be slightly off as she was shitting bricks about playing the harp live on TV when she'd just learnt it lol.

[@Mr.BeanIsNotMyFather]

Just listen to it. Its really good, but i think I like Billie's version better.

For the record the original voice actress is Catharine O'Hara and she is an icon. She is actually a really talented singer and has sung in other films she has done, such as "A Mighty Wind" but her voice sounds "weaker" as Sally because she is singing as the character. Sally is soft spoken and shy and so is her singing voice. It actually genius. Loved everything that Billie did with the song. She made it her own. But nothing beats original.
