Voice Coach Reacts | Leprous - Acquired Taste (Live at Rockefeller)

[@Dennzer1]

I can't believe I loved this song almost 10 years ago, and now its here with people reacting to it on KZbin.

[@progperljungman8218]

Can't belive I was in a small venue loving them when they had only come to Tall Poppy Syndrome - and now they're celebrated around the world 😊

[@lowhangingvegetable]

Thanks for not faking a slave reaction 😄

[@renevw5812]

Leprous is one of my favourite bands. Amazing song

[@basedtrucker]

Is easily one of the most underrated progressive rock bands that could Absolutely be mainstream

[@quadblaster69420]

This is one of the bangers from their older material. Such a good tune.

[@markusv.4094]

The whole album is a banger, this isn't even one of the best songs of it in my opinion!

[@quadblaster69420]

@markusv.4094 banger? I don't even know her!

[@BroudbrunMusicMerge]

Coming back to this to say -- I remember seeing this band live when the art-rock band Bent Knee was opening for them, and Bent Knee has an _incredible_ singer in the form of Courtney Swain. Probably one of the absolute best in the world. "Catch Light (Live at Big Nice Studio)" would be a great introduction to them, if you're interested.

[@BroudbrunMusicMerge]

Sad to hear about the other reaction not being recorded, but I appreciate not faking it. Looking forward to seeing you get more Leprous'd 🥳

[@TheHansbt72]

Happy you picked this one. Perhaps one of my all time favourites this 🙂

[@hansikursch484]

Glad you got around to it 😊

[@griegs2001]

I really love your Leprous-reactions, full with passion, admiration and smart personal thoughts.

[@kristjan79]

Every time I hear this song, I hear Whitney Houston's Unbreak my heart... 🤣! Still an epic track though and loved your reaction. Having recently seen leprous live near Detroit, I highly recommend a live show! I was awestruck, not only by Einars vocals but the entire band is so incredibly tight... And yeah watching Baard play drums live is an experience on its own! I still highly recommend you check out Caligula's Horse, I really think you would love the song "Autumn"! ♥️♥️♥️ They are from Brisbane... Perfect!

[@user-vq7lh9dv3z]

is Tony Braxton :)

[@roimerlopez1275]

Waooo!!!....Congratulations my friend Casey!! ...I want invite you to give us your opinion, like vocal coach, reacting to who is considered the best singer of the world...His name is Dimash Kudaibergen, a young singer who handle 7 octaves and 3 semitones of vocal range (An alien)...He has been singing since he was 5 years (he is 28 now) and he can sing in more than 15 languages...But if you decide to react to Dimash for the first time, please don't do it with his most recent songs ... I recommend that you go to the year 2017 and react to the song that made him a global idol ... I mean the performance he did of the famous French song called "SOS D'un Terrien en Détresse", when he participated in the famous Chinese reality show The Singer in that year 2017 ... With that performance Dimash earned the reputation of being the best singer on the planet, so I recommend you start with that one...You have to be prepared because you are likely to receive a flood of views, comments and new subscribers....And I have to give you a warning: Never react to The World Best videos, because they deceived him and treated him very badly.!...I hope to see you first reaction soon and if you don't mind, I'd like you to mention me as the person who recommended reacting to Dimash....Here you have the best high quality video of Dimash performing S.O.S. Live 2017.....kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHW7ZHmeot6Bl8U

[@Panda_SMM]

love this song, such a good one

[@respawin4513]

I think you should give "Ihsahn - Manhattan Skyline" a listen. It's a cover of a song by A-ha, and it's Einar Solberg from Leprous doing the vocals

[@AMBUSH6666]

We all need this, Dead Can Dance - Sanvean ( I Am Your Shadow )

[@felipecampos3045]

Amazing song, check out contaminate me live as well, i think it has the most crazy vocals from Leprous so far

[@Dennzer1]

cool shit

[@torsten.breswald]

uhm, i'm not sure, if you did some sleep token before, but if you like this, you will probably enjoy 'Sleep Token - Blood Sport (from the room below)' to start with

[@caseyreacts3133]

I don't know much Sleep Token, but I've taught Blood Sport before so I know that one pretty well. Great song!

[@basedtrucker]

Do you give lessons over zoom?

[@Psycorde]

He does seem out of breath at first, and just looks somewhat worn out, must be late in the show. Impressive that he still manages to pump out good performance. Got kinda Muse-y at the end, didn't it?

[@jarnovilen5259]

Seeing Leprous live is a religious experience. And this is coming from a dedicated atheist.

[@TwoandaHater]

Silent Revelation

[@glacieractivity]

Abso-f-ing-lutely correct. Distilled emotion in progress.

[@glacieractivity]

This is prog. It is supposed to be nothing happening while the wildest stuff ever is taking place continuously. This is also Leprous. The lead vocalist, Einar, has battled depression for decades. This is what male depression sounds like. I am going to be slightly "gender'ish now - do not take it too seriously). But a typical trope is that women can "talk through issues" while males experience such issues more like a scream of desperation. I dropped down into that rabbit hole of depressive emotions a decade ago and it was impossible to talk to my very masterful of verbal communication - like myself who normally is also pretty good at finding words inside the state of depression. So I will talk about gender and psychology and music. ADHD was continuously mishandled in girls for decades - because it was diagnosed in young restless boys. Depression was also diagnosed erroneously on boys - because boys being depressed can look more like ADHD boys than "that sad girl that could not stop crying" - defining "depression". Leprous is a home for very emotional people who will be supportive and will go to work and will pay the bills while wearing black jeans and look rock and roll. We do not need the words to be spoken - because there are not always words to be found. A lot of times it is just dissonance, best described by chord progressions or very off-beat ways to resolve odd rhythmics (like 7 over 8) or solving polyrhythms (like 4 over 4 resolving itself over 12 over 8. Unrest is being built into the structure of the composition. I am not saying that everyone who listens to prog has a mental issue. Long before I crashed I had a fascination for Leprous. Now we have to visit the culture. I think you have done Aurora in the past. If you listen to her cover of Ariana Grande's "God is a woman" - you will find that she covers up parts of the lyrics with vowels - and she is particular about the words she refuses to spell out. This is what we have done since the dawn of time. The music is the emotional part - not the lyrics - so we do that with vowel-bending. As such it is also rather "classical". Beethoven did not need lyrics to his 9th. We do not need subtitles to understand what is going on. Sometimes actual words get in the way of expression of something more ... intimate? Prog rock is a way for males to smile (we can nerd out on maths really well with polyrhythms and all the technicalities going on) - but it can also be a good way to cry - from internal chaos and nothingness and everything at once. If you watch the video you reacted to ever again - focus on the audience when they are in focus. They are meditative as "rockers". Us men may not always be the best to express what we feel. But we sure can immerge into the sensation.

[@robinmorris8201]

What a weird comment. Yes unfortunately men's mental health is often overlooked and men are taught to repress there feeling. Yes music is a great tool to help with depression etc... for anyone regardless of the genre. But saying "prog rock is male's way to smile" and the rest of that paragraph is one of the most bizarre gatekeepy takes I've read in a long time. The last Leprous show I went to there were as many women as men and all of them were into the music.
