    Noah is on another level. I’ve seen Bad Omens live multiple times and dozens of interviews with Noah. He’s so reserved and soft spoken in his speaking but dude becomes unhinged live and puts so much emotion and power in his vocals.

    Noah is arguably the most best vocalist when he is live and just in general, he sounds exactly like the records live, and the fact he is constantly changing resonates live just shows how much of a pro he is, a lot of vocalists when they are live are often flat or they strain a lot but he is just on another level!!!

    Noah did a live tribute song for his friend Keaton, it was a Nashville show, and the song was called “Sympathy” which was Keatons song from Too Close to Touch. That to me was a chilling performance Noah did.

    It’s amazing how far he’s come as a vocalist, even just from this live performance you’re reacting to… to newer and more recent live performances. Just gets better and better.

    • @lillaaa001
      @lillaaa001 Рік тому +5

      Also! I’ve noticed in newer live performances, Noah doesn’t do the overly exaggerated “I can” coming into the chorus.. it’s a lot softer now which in my opinion sounds really beautiful. For reference, check out their performance of just pretend from their live stream they did in New York in November.

    At 4:57 It is actually Noah's head and chest voice together. I don't think it is mixed because you can hear the distintive low sound with the higher note laid over it. Pitching the low note up and softening the low and high sound. I found recently there is a line you can draw across the two. And by moving it up and down you can create complex mixed sounds. Brian Johnston has this feature about his voice making him difficult to emulate.

    imo i think he uses a bit his larynx to "reach" those notes but its somehow controlled so it doesnt hurt his voice though idk if its possible to not hurt your voice like that. idk to me it just really sounds that he uses the larynx a bit. interesting and beautiful as always, love it
