People need to realize different genres require different types of sounds and therefore slightly different techniques.

*Now this is a vocal teacher who deserves millions of subscribers;* he doesn't just discredit the video from the beginning like some others, but rather he analyzes it and gives a lot of helpful insight. And actually even teaches us about support, tension, how vowel sounds affect these things etc. *Truly brilliant video & channel!* ✨

As a vocalist, I absolutely love your videos. Insightful critique tempered by kindness and fairness. One of your videos popped up in my recommended list a week or so ago and I've been binging your content ever since. As far as suggestions go, I would love to hear your reaction to Josh Groban. It doesn't even matter which song. Maybe even snippets of multiple songs. In any case, it's wonderful that your channel is growing so rapidly. It's easy to see why. ^_^

Singing is one of those passion driven activities where people are intensely vulnerable. It's such a relief to see you/Sam using knowledge and kindness to open the possibilities up and make singing feel accessible - makes me feel like trying again after lessons with two singing teachers who were super awkward and judgy. I'd really like to be able to sing some of the songs I love with some enjoyment and confidence.

I do not believe many people actually understand what support is. Support is all about creating appropriate breath pressure through not letting your diaphragm relax and rise back up. It is achieved through multiple muscles, most of them are ON THE INSIDE and cannot be seen. Any exercise that is focused on prolonging and controlling exhalation will train support and those muscles that do not allow the diaphragm to relax. Support is NOT about pushing in with your ab muscles. If anything, it is about pushing OUT and DOWN with your inner ab muscles. Back, chest, and pelvic muscles are also involved in supporting. Also, support is one part of the puzzle. Appropriate vocal fold closure, lack of tension and overall vocal health - lack of disease/inflammation in the respiratory system - are also vitally important. Even an allergy will create mucus in the throat and sinuses, which will affect vocal fold function, muffle the sound and prevent you from sounding great no matter how good your support is.

I disagree a little bit with that statement (studied mt and classical singing and also choir conducting). There is a point...in long phrases, especially if you need more air pressure to produce the desired sound (f.e. belting), that you absolutely need the diaphragm to rise - slowly and controlled though. That can be done by engaging your back muscles and abs in a continuing motion...otherwise - at a certain point- you're preventing your body from breath support (preventing air from reaching your vocal folds): your support locks and becomes static. I was classically trained for most of my life...but when I started using Complete vocal technique (CVT) my support became so much more 'powerful' and flexible- it also really helped with my classical singing. I do agree that the leaning outward and pushing down methods are very helpful, I just think they mainly help at the beginning of a phrases, for harsher onsets (high belt out of nowhere) or 'lighter' vocal material....
@arts6325
@arts6325 6 жыл бұрын
Can you please elaborate? It is obvious you cannot continue to work against your diaphragm forever and at one point you will "run out of support". Belting requires more air pressure, yes. There are several "buts" that I don't want to get into here. I will say this - pushing in with your hands just below your collarbone, provided you have good vocal cord closure, will produce the desired effect for belting, proving it is air PRESSURE that matters, no matter how you achieve it. CVT is awesome, but despite its name, still incomplete, just like any other vocal technique. Many SLS teachers deny breath support altogether.
@Simplenotion
@Simplenotion 6 жыл бұрын
Elaborate on what exactly :-)? How I use support whilst belting? Sorry, didn't understand that question - we don't seem to disagree on the subject. I also completely agree about CVT! That's why I also use and teach by incorporating EVT and different functional methods (Reed), Bel canto technique and so on. I dislike the thought that there is a 'complete' method but personally found CVT the most helpful.

I can usually tell if a singer is straining. because my own body seems to react with a bit of tension. Listening to Bublé though, I'm always relaxed. I can understand why, because he described how singing was just something that he discovered - he never tried hard for it, and he's so enjoying it, never forcing it.

I honestly think whoever made the original video just doesn't like the more resonant sound pop often has. Most of these guys don't have any actual issue with their singing technique, they're just choosing more resonance, like you say. Not everyone wants to sound like a Broadway singer all the time.

This video reminds me of the note toward the end of "Gravity" by Sara Bareilles. She's said something to the effect that throwing her head back and making it look bigger gets the audience very into it, but that the note itself is very easy for her. In contrast, she also said there are much higher notes in "Brave" that when in studio she could hit, but doing it live caused strain and she had to find ways to hit the notes without straining so much. I think it's very interesting how those choices are made sometimes for effect vs what artists actually have trouble with when it comes to strain, regardless of support.

One thing that I definitely agree with you is that supporting is definitely a spectrum and that I agree that in the middle to lower range of a person's voice it's not necessarily important to fully support every note. I think though the higher notes for either males or females has a greater importance on a nicer sound as generally I think people tend to overuse their voice in that area. Please react to Lara Fabian Adagio or Broken Vow :D! I love your insights!

I am most decidedly NOT a vocalist or vocal coach. That said, I am classically trained on a few instruments and have a great appreciation for quality musical performance regardless of medium. I had never seen a 'vocal coach' reaction video before randomly running into one of yours. I've now spent an admittedly unhealthy amount of time binge-watching your channel and don't regret a second. After checking out a few similar channels out of curiousity I can say with resolution that the knowledge you convey and quality of your commentary is the best on youtube by nothing short of a landslide margin. Your content is extremely enjoyable to watch even for someone coming from effectively >0< vocal performance background all while you provide a considerably technical analysis; I think that in itself is an incredible accomplishment and a talent that I imagine makes you a phenomenal teacher by allowing you to give feedback in an approachable and valuable way. Keep up the spectacular work, I'll certainly be back for more.

It's 6 am and i havent got to bed yet but i've learnt a heckton from your videos. You're also super kind and one can see you're super knowledgeable about your craft too, so, big props to you. Subscribed, liked, and one more extra reason for coffee in the morning tomorrow.

Please please please react to Hozier Nina Cried Power. I really feel he is one of the best "pop" (used loosely) male voices. And I would live to hear you describe how he makes my kidneys vibrate thru headphones.

Even if I wasn't interested in singing, I'd love to watch your videos. Your apparent lack of criticism is soooo refreshing. You're analytic and constructive, and you make me feel I could probably learn. Thank you.

Love it! You can be really well supported and strained simultaneously; not mutually exclusive!!! All the support in the world is not going to fix registration,, vowel mod, tension, etc...

I love these videos. The channel that made the support vs. strain video had comparisons from two different genres on most of them. It was mainly pop/contemporary music vs. soul/Broadway artists.

You should do a react video to some of the most well liked/respected metal singers. Like Eric Adams from Manowar, Ronnie James Dio, Rob Halford or Bruce Dickinson. It would be interesting to hear your opinion about the genre in general as well.

i like that you defended individual style choices - some singers - some styles (eg R&B) - deliberately use a strained sound for effect good that you clarified the situation - small vs open vowels - that's actually a very helpful piece of advice that anyone can immediately employ

I don't do any singing myself, but I always enjoy watching your videos. I can tell that you're very knowledgeable and passionate about vocal techniques and coaching, and you don't react to things for the sake of views. This is the kind of passion project that KZbin was intended for, and I hope your channel grows!

I totally agree with you. My vocal coach told me that my problem with singing and why I am constantly raising my larynx is not because I don't know how to support the notes but rather I tried too much to support those notes by really pushing my vocal chords

Hey Sam! I loved this one. I'd love to see some a reaction to some of the most talented rock vocalists from the 60's and 70's (like roger daltrey and robert plant) if thats something youre interested in. Something that would also be interesting from your perspective is the comparison between greta van fleet and led zepplin, which has been under lots of debate lately. Thanks!

Love your channel. It's nice to see someone being nice and giving constructive advice instead of just saying "that was bad". I would love to see you react to classic rock or older rock acts, like AC/DC, Aerosmith, maybe "Hair Metal" like Skid Row, etc.

I was so worried he wasn't coming back..!!!!!!!! .. This is one of the most interesting channels on the youtube... I used to live with a voice coach/opera singer so I recognize some of the vernacular. I went to a lot of shows with him like Dawn Upshaw who I loved and Renee Fleming at Berkely who was amazing. I got turned onto some amazing music..like Queen of the night from The Magic Flute who is my fave... Keep up the good work Sam..!!! You make this so easy to understand...
