There was another vocal teacher that reacted to one of his videos and he did a reaction to it. He basically said he's all instinctual in the way he sings and had no clue about all of these different techniques she was talking about.
Gurl, I wanna know who that is.
@@galaxyuniverse5769 rebecca the vocal athlete
RVA loved watching that
Please never post a thumbnail of you making a normal face.
happily
I’d love to see Brendon Urie react to your reaction! You have a super non-judgemental analysis of performances which is a pleasure to watch :)
Auntjerri he reacts to voice coaches reacting to him on his Twitch stream sometimes!!! Pop in and recommend Sam! He’s always so sweet and attentive to the coaches
That would be SO COOL!
@@Kat-qr7hv hes done it twice, but he doesn't really like doing it
@@Kat-qr7hv he says he hates seeing himself so he doesn't really like watching them lol
@@Kat-qr7hv he puts himself down too much :(
"Don't make that sound. It's his!" 😂
I truly believe he’s underrated. Yes, people know he’s a great singer, but he’s just so incredibly talented. And seems to be a very sweet person as well
He was incredible in Kinky Boots, he performed in a leg of the NYC show if I remember correctly. There's a clip of him performing Soul Of A Man here on UA-cam, I'd strongly recommend anyone to go listen - I prefer it to the original cast recording!
He's overrated tbh, he's an amazing singer and a decent musician (gets the job done on the instruments he plays) but fml his songwriting is so boring. Panic were at their best around the Pretty Odd. era when they were still a full band and I think that says a lot about what Brendon Urie's strengths are...
Lewis Dean You can have your opinion on the songs, but you can’t say that he is overrated when he is not, especially compared to the shitty famous artists that actually win awards & are on radio that don’t even write their music. Their last album wasn’t the best, but that doesn’t reflect on him being “overrated” at all.
@@natalier4053 It doesn't matter who writes the music at the end of day, if it's interesting and well-written then kudos to whoever was involved (whether it was 5 people or 1). In fact, I just went on the credits page for Panic's latest albums and they've listed 9 writers for 'High Hopes' alone, but I don't have any problem with that. I just think his songwriting is bland.
I remember watching P!ATD's first live performance (they were signed without ever really performing live) and holy shit, he used to be a HORRIBLE singer outside of the studio lol he definitely got some vocal lessons (as did the original bassist of P!ATD) and he's better. But man, you should try to find it haha it was the worst.
Your reactions and insight on Thirty Seconds to Mars (Jared Leto), Avenged Sevenfold (M. Shadows, Paramore (Hayley Williams) and maybe more Linkin Park (Chester Bennington), would be really interesting to hear :)
He did do a reaction to Hayley Williams a while ago..
@@portrayalc577 I must have missed that. Thanks
i know he reacted to hayley (queen 👑) before, but not sure about the others... i adore m.shadows & chester bennington 💜 & rlly hope he reacts to them too!
Yeah, he should react to M. Shadows for sure
Holding Absence is also a band he should check out. They are relatively new compared to all those other bands but their singer is insane. He sounds the same in the studio and live from the videos i can find.
He said "one, its his!" Like Sam will come fight you if you try to take his style 🤣
I remember the day I bought this album. Every song is pretty good. "'Sweater song" broke out big, then " buddy Holly", sealed the deal.
Their debut (1994) and Pinkerton are my faves.
The music in 1994 and 1995 was so much better than today's.
I was unaware of Auto tune for the most part, the only time a heard it was for a couple seconds off the top 40 hit " only God knows why" by Kid Rock. It was an Overplayed radio pop country hit. In one verse you can hear it. Nowadays in everysong you see kids singing with it like crazy. It sounds horrible - imo.
I noticed his first “say” in the chorus was more narrow or compressed than the rest of the “say” phrases throughout the song. Hey look at me I’m Sam 2.0 😆
IT'S WORKING
He’s fit in every way
you have great intuition, and know how to follow it. it shows on your face when something isnt quite right and you try to figure out if its just you or there is indeed something not alright lol i think its great! your way of explaining things also respond to your intuition, which makes it more approachable to people who dont know about music (myself included). you kind of put into words things that we didnt know could be named
cote catalán well said!
im like ridiculously happy Sam liked my comment lol i discovered him like a week ago and he's just SO GOOD AT ENGAGING THE AUDIENCE. Sam if youre reading this, do you like the Cocteau Twins? i think elizabeth fraser is such an interesting example of poetic sounds and how technology broadens the possibilities in the best way possible. the type of music they make just isnt made for playing in concerts, and its a shame there really arent good recordings of them live. anyway, keep up the good job! 💕🌈
I saw Brendon AND I CLICKED
Interesting! Brendon is one of my favourite singers for sure.
Thanks for lending your expertise. Though I'm old enough to be your father, maybe your grandfather, don't sing, I do enjoy rock ('golden moldies' of my day - Zeppelin, Tull, the Who, Stones, etc. & some current day), and some pop and jazz. I thoroughly enjoy your You Tube critiques, and I love your humor. To sum it up I respect your opinion and appreciate you and your contributions here. Bless you. Sam.
It's really wild to hear him now having grown up listening to his earlier work, he has gotten so much better and I think so much more intentional over time. (I say this having loved every second of his earlier work, he just seemed to really push or strain for some things before, whereas now we still get wonderful emotional intensity but it seems more in control.)
Also akdhaskjhsd the sudden cut off at the end of this video was A+
I appreciated you repeating the refrain that he's probably not thinking about it during his performance.
If you've put in the work to practice the technique and the song then trust yourself!! (Thanks for reminding me)
u should watch him sing into the unknown, his tongue is basically out of his mouth at one point. gotta love him!
Honestly, I’m not a singer at all, and I stumbled upon your videos going down a UA-cam rabbit hole and I’m so glad I did. Your videos are always so soothing to watch and are one of the most positive channels I’ve seen. Keep doing it, you’re awesome!
Brendon Urie also did "Moving Out" by Billy Joel. The way he pitches his voice is amazing.
i saw this performance live last summer!! i'm sitting behind them in the recording room :') thank you for reacting to this loved it
What a talented singer, he's truly an incredible performer!
Somthing about brendon that alot of people who dont follow his lives might not know is that one of brendons nostrils (his right i think) doesnt work, it collapsed after a skateboard accident. That mighty affect his singing somewhat.
Love hearing you say that one of my favorite artists is singing well and sounds great. Your expressions are everything while you're watching.
6:42 LOL.. That was a fantastic moment
I love his sense of humor
lmfaooo me
Sam Johnson for president 2020
I love The Weezer Song by Weezer.
~*~*If you want... to destroy... my weezer....*~*~
woahuwoahuwoah
@@SamJohnsonVoice why you dont react to lara fabian? and where are you hair? longer hair is such better, and had you brown eyes in the past? greeting from the cell blog tango distriction!
@@francescariepen691 what
@@francescariepen691 is that a prison?
Erm sweater?
Brendon Urie has such a lovely voice. I like his style a lot.
Hey. I recommend checking out ""Toss A Coin To Your Witcher" Metal Cover" by Dan Vasc. His vocals are fantastic.
Yes! This please
yesssssssssssssssss!! one of my fav covers they've done! thank you, king ♥
[also I remember Brendon saying he never really had a vocal coach or had any clue what he was doing, but once he got the role on Broadway he learned a lot of techniques to support his voice]
I LOVE watching Sam's face as the songs ramp up. You say so much, even when you're not saying a thing. Its incredible.
More Brendon reactions, please and thank you!
I had an old cassette tape with Buddy Holly on it, recorded from the radio by my cousin. That's my first Weezer memory.
I would love for you to react to Nicole Scherzinger singing “Phantom of the Opera”.
I second this
Oh god, I saw that the first time the other day. It was mind blowing, she is phenomenally talented.
Every time I watch one of your videos, I fall a little more in love with you ❤ you're so kind and unbiased and you explain everything so, so well!
I loved seeing you really getting into the song and mouthing the words! Could you possibly react to Bastille? They have a really fun cover of Bad Guy but their newer stuff like Million Pieces or Those Nights is really nice too!
PLEASE SAM PLEASE!
yessss! The orchestral version of Million Pieces!
Great video..I'll always watch anything Brendon Urie does ❤️❤️
Ugh Brendon Urie is my favorite male singer. He is so damn good. 😍
Jessie J is my favorite female singer she’s so underrated!
I freaking LOVE him, he's fantastic!
I've heard his technique isn't the best for sustainability on very long shows though (and it's not uncommon to see him tired on shows, although he obviously pretty much always sounds great, even on his bad days vocally, because he's so talented,) what are your thoughts on this subject?
Ygor Cortes im pretty sure its cause he’s never had vocal lessons and has never been taught ways to be have sustainability he goes on instinct so he just kinda does what he does
He is not my favorite, but i really think that he is the best vocalist of his generation. I've been listening to him for more than a decade now, I've seen him singing in different genre, style, in any condition and situation, and he always nailed it. He always gets me with every performance.
In his shows he also does a LOT like dancing jumping flips and showing off his high notes. His concerts are amazing
@@OnlyGleeLover I think I heard somewhere that he actually got vocal lessons very briefly before their first big tour. Apparently they were making songs that were too advanced for his voice at that time. Don't have the reference, though.
@@jennalewis762 This!!!
wish it could’ve been the actual Weezer version. Brendon Urie has a lovely voice and great technique. I feel like I learn the most from analyzing singers that have more distinctive sounds-the extremes of technique help me recognize things in my own voice to work on, especially since I subconsciously imitate a lot of sounds I hear from a song’s original singers
Oh maaaaaaan nostalgia🥰! My best friend and I jammed this song out EVERYDAY for 10 years 😂! Warmed up with this, moved to System of a Down, and ended with Les Mis! Yay music 🎉
Wait. I'd never noticed those pop figures in the back there before, because i've been so engrossed in what you're saying, but they are very cool :)
big fan of everything in this video, especially your rock n roll face
Great and informative reaction.
I think you would really enjoy reacting to his cover of Lonely Days by The Bee Gees. They performed it at the Grammy Tribute Show celebrating The Bee Gees. Barry Gibb really looked impressed by their cover and they got a standing ovation.
Since you mentioned his vibrato and his jaw you may find it interesting to see him do this performance.
I would love to see you reacting to Kimbra singing Plain Gold Ring (Live at Sing Sing Studios), cause she works so much with her body, her movements, and her expressions are quite unique while she sings.
Also, I love your videos sooo much!
Kisses from Brazil! ❤️
YESYESYES we stan
**sees Sam + Panic!**
**clicks immediately**
Tnx for this, was super awesome. Brendon's so underrated, it hurts me, but at the same time I know he doesn't want to be more famous/recognized. His voice feels warm to me, cozy, soft, comforting. I think its because he doesn't struggle while singing, its all so natural, he makes me trust him that he won't fail a note, that he'll hit them perfectly and even if he'll have a voice crack, I know that stuff is just funny to him so I won't be annoyed at it, like I am with other singers, but I'll just laugh because I know that's what he probably did. Idk, Brendon's voice, the tone of it, is something very special.
i remember him voice cracked, he laughed it off
Can you do a video on Sia please, I'd love to know what you think of her older stuff vs new and also her intentional voice cracking and how to learn that if its possible... that is all hahaha
Sam, I've come to realize you are my favorite voice coach to react to on UA-cam. Your candor and technical commentary is so interesting and I genuinely learn from listening to your videos. I particularly like that you do not focus on making sure you comment on how good and artist is...you compliment where it is called for but you see true enjoyment and appreciation of certain parts of a song and it gives your videos a more genuine and objective feel to it, which I appreciate. I so truly wish Brendan Urie would react to your reaction of him because I think he'd appreciate hearing your feedback.
Sam I found you a couple of days ago .......and i'm addicted ........you analysis the performances and give a "how" and "why" these singers can get the sound they want. Your amazing and are awesome to watch =)
I see panic!, I click. This is just how my life works. 😂😂
10 second songs discussed the vocal technique of "unchained melody" and it would be cool to hear your take on it!
It's so fun listening to you break it down.
3:58 OMG I feel like that was directly aimed at me, because I, listening to Brendon, constantly try to copy that vibrato, and this was eye opening 👏
I live for Sam Johnson complimenting Brendon Urie. Or anyone complimenting Brendon Urie. Even his mom.
Great stuff as always, and I can focus since I'm not looking at how Doug and Patty Mayonnaise are separated in your case.
SAY IT AIN'T SOOOOOOOOOOO
Would love it if you would check out Massive Attack featuring Elizabeth Fraser singing Teardrop. Live at Paris Zenith 2019 11 fév is pretty awesome. Her voice is so ethereal.
Great video Sam! Please analyze Dave Matthews Band - Don't Drink the Water live at Central Park 2003!
_I'm_ thinking about Brendon's tongue...
3:30 Interesting fact about Brendon's jaw vibrato. He got his vocal inspiration from Frank Sinatra, who actually learned HIS vibrato from studying Tommy Dorsey, one of the most innovative and lyrical trombonists of all time.
Great video. Can you pls do a Thom Yorke review. He has an amazing falsetto.
Thanks for being a highlight of my day during downtime. Refreshingly upbeat, positive and educational. Good shit Sam.
Has anyone mentioned Michael Kiwanuka? He's a fantastic British singer and songwriter. Cool background vocals. Great band.
I feel like this cover is very underrated so I appreciate this video
Your cricket sounds and facial expressions were awesome :D
I love it when Sam is in awe.....Makes me feel like less of a fangirl.
React to Matt Bellamy best live vocals
Thisss. And Gerard Way.
I can tell you right now he’ll praise Matt’s range and the power of his voice but probably criticize his breathing technique (or rather, completely lack thereof) and offer ways to approach his songs that won’t make him sound like he’s gasping after coming up from underwater between lines.
Yes to Allen Stone. He's a sweet listen/performer. Also, as a fan of auto generated captions, today's win is "his bowels are great, " second place is "Java broto."
Can you please react to Ben Platt doing Somewhere!?!? It’s so beautiful and I think you’d fall in love with it
This was super fun to see. I’ve noticed after watching that nobody has done my favorite -Tom Delonge of Blink 182 & Angels and Airwaves. He has such a unique voice and a huge loyal following even though live he is hit or miss. I’d really enjoy seeing a breakdown on him. He also has changed his voice and style tremendously over his career from 90’s to now. It’s like night and day. :) thanks for the great video!
I've been a music junkie my entire life, I LOVE your passion and ability to pull the positive out of an outwardly appearing "terrible" performance. I always wanted to sing and never felt I could, but like you I feel music is colors so I worked in the early 80's in lighting with touring rock bands, but after watching you and taking your advice I no longer scare my cat away when I'm singing with my head phones on. Would love for you to watch Tears for Fears, Going to America Tour featuring Oleta Adams. What a kaleidoscope o sound! The WHOLE show is incredible but I would love to see your reaction to either Woman in Chains or Sowing the Seeds of Love, maybe the latter because it is sooo good. THANK YOU for always putting a smile on my face!
As always, I love your insight - thanks!
Omg this is my fav song at the moment I’m shook you reacted to it
Yes I love Brendon 💖 would you be able to react to/analysis a song by any of these - the smiths, pixies, grimes, Radiohead ? I watch your videos with my bf and would love to see your opinions on songs he likes 😊
This dude is just a great singer!
Great reaction Sam!👍🏼
Brendon Urie is such a good singer. Love his voive.
whenever I watch your videos (which is all the time) all I can think of is 🎶Keep on doing what you do ‘Cuz I’ll never get tired of you Don’t need booze ‘Cuz I’ll never get tired of you🎶 your talent is incredible
Anyone else hear Buffalo Bill when Sam pulls his tongue back to sound muffled?
It puts the lotion on its skin, lol.
I love how much you explain how and why different styles and techniques sound different. It makes it easy for people like me with no music background to understand. I appreciate that.
I would like to see your opinion on that singing ventriloquist (Darci Lynne?) from AGT a few years ago.
Yay, Weezer! Your videos are always interesting and well thought through, you seem like such a nice guy.
If you're up for song suggestions, I'm really curious what you'd make of a Glen Hansard song (preferably Angel at my table). :)
You are a great teacher! I´m learning so much with your videos, thank you Sam!!
Love this 💞! Another great video! Love Brendon !
I don't know if enough people will want this, but I'd love it if you reacted to "Matt Corby - Brother (BalconyTV).
There's some really interesting points vocally I think!
Can't argue with perfection!
Would love a reaction to Queen live in Montreal ('81), preferably Somebody To Love (or Save Me, Play The Game, etc.)
Out of curiosity, what does Brendon do right with the "use jaw to make vibrato sound" as opposed to this Lewis Capaldi guy who started to look like a turkey? Is it a question of sprinkling it into the song sometimes for effect vs overusing it?
I'm obsessed with Brendan Uries voice.
I've said before, but I'd love it if you'd review another live Hozier performance. He has a few live performances on a channel called The Current, or if you ever wanted to do a comparison about how an artist can completely change a song, by listening to Arctic Monkeys "Do I Wanna Know" vs Hoziers live lounge cover. Hits completely differently.
Who is the ONE dislike on this video?? I just wanna talk 😂
Hey. Checkout Brendon's cover of "into the unknown" and also "ashes" (it's just a clip from his twitch Livestream).
Thanks for this! Felt like the band didn't support his good energy and intensity, sounded and looked like they were playing a ballad all the way through...
I would really love to see you analyze panic at the disco covering karma police by radio head. Its one of my all time favorite performances.
My favourite singer of all times ❤️
Wheeler brings back fond memories...So moving to see you smile watching his performance. Thanks so much for this analysis, Sam. Please check out and review Angelina Jordan - either Bohemian Rhapsody performed for AGT, or any of her other 200+ songs on her channel. She has such a wonderful voice, and recomposes all the songs she sings to make them her own. Also she always sings barefoot.
Can you review Alex Brightman as Beetlejuice? I'd love to hear your opinion on the voice he's using for the show.
MY TIME HAS COME. A WEEZER REACT
Love your insightful yet entertaining reactions. Love me some Panic!
Can you do a video comparing/contrasting both singers for Sublime: Bradley Nowell vs Rome
Absolutely love Brendon's voice
Could you do on with Andy Black?
Hiho, Sam Johnson!
How are you?
Once again you showed yourself with some outstanding analysis of vocal, God dayum.
I would suggest some analysis of Shinedown, don't know if you have heard of them before, some of their acoustic versions, like their cover of Simple Man, 45, Save Me... Best wishes and have a wonderful week.
Have you seen his VH1 live studio version of I Write Sins not Tragedies? Omg. Please please check that out. Great video (as always).
