Vocal Coach Sings! 'Beautiful City' From Godspell! One Take Recording!

[@SSTVocalCoach]

So this is really not my comfort zone here! I Ended up doing a last minute coaching session for a friend after his coach was unavailable , and he was working on this song. I'd never heard of the song or the musical before, but I really liked the way the song moved so I thought i'd give it a bash! Should have taken more time to learn it and maybe not tried a one take, but if you're not living on the edge you're taking up too much room!

Really great. Can we all take a minute to give Sam a round of applause how well he done. Sounded great, lovely tone and as he says, not in his wheel house

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Thanks Ben, i'm glad you liked it! :)

[@Musicality-66]

Dear Sam, simply beautiful! I closed my eyes and enjoyed your voice. 💕🤘

[@jollybell5452]

ONE OF THE FEW VOCAL COACHES ALL OVER KZbin WHO REALLY SINGS..

[@junarellano7840]

Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏 well done.... Very well done

[@KT-sq2ml]

Thank you for sharing this. You have a gorgeous voice and your performance gave me hope in a very sad time here in America. I hope we do the right thing here and build a beautiful city of man loving man and put to end all the hatred in this country and world.

Always one of my favorite songs from Godspell movie soundtrack! Haven’t heard it for years... thanks for bringing me back to such a great time in my life!

[@LunaDillard]

Thank you for taking me back to 1975 when I was in a high school production of Godspell! I got to do We Beseech Thee in that production and had a wonderful time.

[@robreck6082]

Like many great songs - it comes through in the end. Thanks for sharing. I would agree about the vibrato, but it actually worked, so who cares. You totally got into the flow and pacing of the song which is, to me, the biggest thing about communicating a song and not just singing it.

[@valerieboston6292]

Beautiful!! Please sing some more for us!😁

[@fdsannie]

Applause, applause, applause!!!!!!!!!! You really have a great voice.......

[@arkiemisfit]

[@catherine-cs4ck]

Oh it is soooo refreshing to hear a coach who critics others singers, put themselves out there and sing. And sing well. Good on ya! Awesome. !O! (Standing O)

[@marshayoung9387]

Beautiful voice ❤️ I think this vocal range & strength you put into this song suits your voice better than the slower & softer voice.

[@tralijntje1540]

you nailed it ! you really have that heartstring touching ballad type of voice

[@catrineannegaytano6935]

awesome!

[@Rosannasfriend]

Sam, you don't need to be told this after all the other comments: that was gorgeous.

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Thank you! It's always nerve wracking to put yourself out there, especially when the nature of your channel is to get people to listen to vocal nuances! haha! :)

[@ellenhirota64]

Really really nice voice

[@marklim1455]

i think i'm inlove😍😍😍

[@pmcnatt]

You have such a beautiful and calming voice!! I could listen to you sing for hours 🤩

[@SSTVocalCoach]

P. McNatt Thank you! 🙌🙏

[@alexv.8867]

U did great Sam. And the little kitchen in the background is everything 😍

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Alex V. Oh you should see the culinary delights that come from that kitchen! The play dough pie and wooden cookies are a stand out! 🤣

[@alexv.8867]

@@SSTVocalCoach I am sure it is! I'm a little bit jealous to be honest😉

[@khailoseo483]

Getting better and better! Lovely!

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Thanks Khai! :)

[@ilze3524]

Hello! Why are so many injustices in the world. People who can't sing are famous. But people who have a nice voice are not always appreciated. Like you Sam. I think you already need take big concerts and perform your singing. So beautiful so emotional. 👍😉 when the quarantine is over or is there a chance to suport you and hear you in glasgow or scotland? Thanks!💋💋💋

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Thank you Ilze! I'm based in Glasgow at the moment. I'm putting ideas down for my own music (very very early stages) so If I ever get all that off the ground, i'd love to see you at a show!

[@markedly1013]

Do some more songs from Godspell!

[@daveg.6820]

Sam, first time I've heard you sing. Excellent -- smooth, strong voice. Bravo. Do a standard, maybe?.

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Thank you! Maybe one day! :)

[@ilze3524]

And don't worry about place where you singing I'm not see nothing I just hear your voice💋💋💋

I don't know if you know any of these people, but many actors who met as members of the 1972 Toronto cast of Godspell went on to be fixtures on N.American TV and in movies. You might know Victor Garber as Jennifer Garner's father in the TV show Alias. He played Jesus in Toronto, broadway, and in the movie version. Other comedic actors who mostly ended up on SCTV and Saturday Night Live are Gilda Radner, Eugene Levy, Martin Short, Andrea Martin, and Dave Thomas. The musical director was Paul Shaffer, who later was David Letterman's band leader for 33 years. Eugene Levy ( SCTV, American Pie, Schitt's Creek, many Christopher Guest movies) originally tried out for Jesus, but was told he looked too Jewish. They were afraid that the amount of upper body hair he had might frighten the children in the matinee audiences. Granted - none of this has anything to do with the good effort you just put forth, but that's all I know about Godspell.

[@SSTVocalCoach]

I knew literally none of that! Thanks for the background, I'll have to check out more of the show!

[@kevinm6790]

Dude, it may not be in your wheelhouse, but Wow! How about trying some more ballads from musicals? You might find your wheelhouse expanding a bit. I for one would love to hear you do more.

[@SSTVocalCoach]

Thanks Kevin 😊😊😊

[@Jackstonerz]

Hey Sam. Have you heard of Teddy Swims? Pls do a reaction. The song is I can’t make you love me cover song. Thanks for all you do

[@jemersondominguez2102]

Nice tone. Maybe the song needs to be rearranged to be applicable to your vocal range. It seems a good bridge will allow your vocal range go on a flight. Keep it up. Congrats and God bless.

[@evernaur1648]

Sam!! Please react Whitney Houston & Dato Siti Nurhaliza- Memories PLEASEEEE I’M BEGGING YOU😭😭😭

[@hero4fun714]

can u react to Malaysian singer Amir Masdi

[@2007beet]

Sounds boring.. but also chill.. if that makes sense. Anyway, it sounds like something is stuck on your throat like some phelgm.. make a cover of a sweet gentle type of song and maybe expose your beautiful vibrato. 👌🏻
