Vocal Coach reacts "I'll Follow You" (Live) Shinedown captured in The Live Room

[@coxen82]

Cannot believe there isnt a single vocal coach that has reacted to Shinedown Simpleman in some dude's living room...unbelievable vocals..hard to beat Brent Smith's pipes!

[@DG-america]

And better than the original imo.

[@coxen82]

@@DG-america waaaaay better!

[@alexglenn2122]

Is this performance recent? Smith blew his vocal chords tf out waaay back after touring for Us and Them. His live performances for a long time just weren't the same. This isnt quite up to pre-blowout quality but much better than what I last saw.

[@joeybooks1896]

J. Coxen people don’t know that simple man was one of the best songs when people look simple man up the get Lynyrd Skynyrd’s

Or 45

[@ScottDreyfus]

Brent Smith has famously said he's never had a vocal lesson. They were very traditionally a hard rock group. By the third album Zack Myers had joined the band and geve them a really genius musician that helped them grow into what they are today.

I love shinedown. They're definitely more of a rock/metal band - this is one of their much softer songs. For sure check out 'Sound of Madness,' '45,' and 'Bully!' :)

Came here to comment this. She definitely should check out their more typical sound. Crow Chasing a Butterfly would be great to see too, though it's more like the middle ground of sound for them.

[@SheaHarris]

They are definitely "bigger" than she thinks they are. Heck for 2000s bands they have to be up near the top in popularity. Don't think there's anything metal about them at all. Maybe "nu southern rock." Not the biggest fan of the band but big fan of the guy's voice for sure.

[@bodar]

@@SheaHarris Yeah, they've never been metal, but pretty firmly post-grunge alternative rock.

[@Easelgames]

@@bodar Lately no, but some stuff on us/them and sound of silence are pretty heavy sounding. This my be where they get that reputation even if it's not entirely accurate.

[@abbibleu4979]

Shinedown is anything but country!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also please do more shinedown songs: fly from the inside, simple man (cover), second chance, save me, 45, and so on

[@kylefarr3655]

They do have country influences though. Hell Brent is from Knoxville. A couple of their songs do have a country rock feel to them.

[@BrokenWingman]

While they aren't, this song definitely has a country vibe in the beginning.

[@FranciscoGomez-dn8py]

They are a Rock band but wear Country on their sleeves. I mean, they covered Simple Man. That's super country.

[@RyansArk]

So they're more rap than country

[@lukeprice9008]

Totally adored the look on your face when you heard this . With out a doubt one of the finest voices and finest bands working in rock today . This version is f&*king exquisite anyway. Mad props to the sound engineer too. Amazing for a single take

[@jessicaquarles9310]

YESSSSS!!! More Shinedown please, you must do 45 (acoustic version) pleeeease. :D

[@TwilightWolf2508]

Shinedown is a really great show live, the vibe in the crowd is very surreal and unlike any other band I've seen. Brent Smith is a really great frontman, and is really great at interacting with the crowd.

[@clue73457]

I could listen to Brent Smith sing the national anthem in a broom closet. He's that good!!!

[@rashby69]

Shinedown is definitely more rock/metal this is one of their softer more soulful songs if you react to them again try sounds of madness Also react to halestorm uncomfortable

[@ellisford5038]

In my opinion one of the best male singers ever. Brent has some major chops. Just saw them in New Orleans and he sounds just like this live. I would love to hear him sing some country songs.

[@jadehidalgo3437]

This is the song we had our first dance to at our wedding ❤ Shinedown is a HUGE band with a massive fan base.. they’re just a rock band; and unless you’re a pop star or hip hop artist- you don’t tend to get talked about much in the mainstream… But they’re an amazing band- they’ve been around a long time- & anyone who listens to rock/ alternative/ metal knows who they are.. they’re one of my personal favs

[@anabanana884]

Shinedown is my favorite band, I saw them for the first time last year and they are freaking good live. 😍😍😍

[@darreneverett8738]

you would LOVE any of their live shows, especially accoustic stuff. and you see they are everything from Blues to Metal, and they do some amazing work. they can get aggressive or make you warm and home feeling. they were a treat to see in Kansas City, and I think that entire concert is on here. they played lots of songs and told us the story behind them. from being addicts to cleaning up and family life and friends

Shinedown is awesome, and fairly mainstream on the US rock charts. Miracle is another of my favorites from them out of their softer songs. Her name is Alice on the heavier and darker side.

This is one of Shinedown's "softer" songs but I LOVE SHINEDOWN and I would like to see more Shinedown reaction videos on your channel. They do have harder songs out Brent Smith is an AWESOME lead singer and Shinedown is an AMAZING band.

[@SeanDIY]

Shinedown is probably one of the biggest/long running band in modern rock (90's and on.) Brent Smith initially signed with a band and the label made him drop the band and signed him to create a new band around his voice.

[@waynedenker1017]

Mike Patton would be super cool!

[@MissyM68]

Thank you for listening to my favorite band! I love Brent Smith! Both the bassist/pianist & the guitarist provide good harmony. Shinedown writes a variety of song styles. This one is on the softer side, but they can really rock out! They have the 2nd most gold singles in rock (Three Days Grace has just one more). They have also crossed over to the Mainstream Charts with songs like, "If You Only Knew" and "The Crow and the Butterfly." They have so many songs & styles to choose from! Six albums since 2003. Their 3rd album solidified the current lineup in 2008. Great live shows! harder- "Attention! Attention!" is called "Devil." There is a variety; soft side, hard rock and everything in between. Their latest song, "Get Up" deals with clinical depression, which one band member struggles with. I'd love for you to review another Shinedown song. One of the songs that got them to the next level is on their 3rd album, "The Sound of Madness." I hope you can find the time to review another Shinedown song! ~Rocknchic68 (Melissa).

[@alexanderdavis9591]

Since you're in the UK, Beth, you're probably acquainted with Planet Rock radio.

Brent is actually from Knoxville, TN originally and that being said many musicians from the south pick up, blues and Country influences sometimes inadvertently.
