I am a drummer of 46 years and lifelong dedicated. Steven is my favorite frontman and one of the most inspiring men in the world to me. What a blessing it must be to take the stage with him.
I had the privilege of being front row at a Steven Tyler solo show in 2017, and he sang directly to me, hugging me, so that my ear was between his mouth and his mic. I was BLOWN AWAY at how clear and perfect his voice sounded directly in my ear. He's legit, his voice is legit. He gets accused by "fans" of lip syncing now and then. I can hear that he does use backing tracks sometimes, but he's always singing with them. In my opinion, he doesn't need them, he just has them for added security. He's allowed to, he can do whatever he wants! I can't stress enough how real his voice is, though. He does not use auto tune, that's his real voice. He sang a verse of Jaded and a bridge of Livin' on the Edge to me (that concert was one of the best experiences of my life, just need to say!). I've seen Aerosmith live over 50 times and I'm a singer myself. That man IS a super athlete with his voice; his technique is amazing. Great video, thank you!
@@RodriRM_21 Totally agree! My only guess is that it seems these days he's shying away from the upper end of his chest voice. He sings low and he sings high, but he doesn't sing in the middle. It might not be comfortable for him anymore, so he has the backing track for the chorus of Dude. He's also a perfectionist so he might only have it because he wants to make extra sure the right notes are heard. It's like he can do it, but he's maybe not confident, sometimes his voice isn't reliable with those notes. No matter, I still love his voice and it still sounds fantastic.
@@lindsaypez1048 Exactly! The "middle" is what's not as prevalent as the old days..so true...omg reminds me of a joke back in a audio store I worked in.. "all highs and lows? must be Bose"..lol...Tyler is my fav singer first 5 albums Rock!
In 1987 backstage in Joe Louis arena, Dec 7 it was...me and some friends went backstage. I walked around singing 'Popcorn...yeah'...'do-do yeah'...'popcorn' and as Steven walked up it exploded into just that. He took us all for a ride that only he could do, and blew us all away. I got a DWM album signed in gold from that. As a joke I said 'ok, for me the shows over, thanks'...laughs all around. I think Don Dokken learned something that night too lol
@@lindsaypez1048 Yeah, Axl Rose also lost his mid-range voice gradually after 2010, and most of GnR songs are in that range unfortunately. When he performed with AC/DC, people were shocked to hear Axl sing pretty well, but it's mainly because AC/DC's songs are mostly in the high range.
Saw Aerosmith in mid 70s and they stunk up the place! Fans left in droves while they fought on stage. Seen them 3 times since. Some of the best shows I’ve seen! Gotta give it to him! He keeps on kickin’ ass!
Lol so ive been practicing the bel canto italian breathwork exercise for a number of years without knowing, but yes it does work, i naturally now hit lower and higher notes and have like half an octave lower bass ressonance to my voice.. im 23 with the 30 year old golden radio host voice, its dope XD
This relatively unknown video has mystified the fuck out of me ever since I saw it when it first came out. To think that anyone could ever employ such a rarely understood and often never attempted form of singing, especially in the western, rock context with such success and accuracy is mind-blowing and I have no idea how he managed to come about learning that style. Even with all the information there is today it doesn't seem like there's any direct and clear areas where you can go to learn bel canto technique and that's infuriating because it's about one of the few things you could probably really benefit from as a singer, especially if you want a limitless range, but it's largely inaccessible.
@@McFlurry-OREO1 The correct spelling is Freddie. Freddie’s death elevated him in a way that might not have happened if he had lived. His voice wouldn’t have held out like Steven’s has done. His nodules and smoking were already impairing him before his sad illness caused him to have to do the remainder of his music in studio only.
Great article. don't know why but i've been binging on all things Aerosmith this weekend: concerts, interviews etc, I discovered them age 17 in 1974 and their first two albums: AEROSMITH & Get Your Wings were listened two every day, where I played them over & over on my turntable. I dropped off once I had a kid & married. Watching fabulous concerts from the rare 70's footage of their earlier days on up to 2019 has been revelatory! Steven has only gotten better with age & wisdom. He's a scamp and has a serious case of LSD, lead singer disease but man, he has earned everything the world has given him and even the right to claim the male equivalent of DIVA. There are few people that have the energy & heart this man has. Long Live Aerosmith!!
THANK'S FOR THAT INFORMATION ABOUT HIS LEGENDARY VOICE. 👍💯SOME ONE NAMED THE WEATHER MAN, MADE A COMMITMENT THAT THE SECRET WAS HE SNORTED HALF OF PERU. 😁🤧💭🎱BUT WHAT EVER HE HAS DONE KEEP GOING STEVEN. YOUR VOICE IS DEFINITELY ONE OF A KIND. AEROSMITH ROCK'S THERE'S NO BAND THAT CAN COMPARE. 🎸🎸🎸🎹🎙🎶🎵🎼🎤🔊🥁📀💿💯💲💰🎧📯💲🤑😎✌👍👏
Great video, love the illustrations. But I don’t think you explained how he sings. He doesn’t sing the same way he talks in terms or vocal tension or just pitch. If you meant he breathes while singing, sure but everybody breathes while singing. The secret of his singing has a lot to be said.
Video missed the real secret. In Joe Perry's book he revealed that Tyler has a freakishly oversized voicebox/ larynx, giving him outstanding range. So did Freddie Mercury.
The one time I think Tyler was at his worst was during Rock in a Hard Place. The drinking and drugs at that time really screwed him over quite badly. Listen to acrylic Me a River and you will see what I mean. His range is flat and his tone is really scratch and messed up. Thank God he got smart, cleaned up, and got his real voice back for Permanent Vacation and Pump.
The secret?...well, God created us all with small differences, so perfections or tiny imperfections in the vocal cords along with the size and shape of the sinuses, pallet, mouth, throat, and torso resonate in small differences from one person to the next. So, if you’re not naturally gifted, you can drastically improve your singing voice with tons of practice. although there are quite a few singers that can imitate other singers (which isn’t fair 😐 since I can barely carry a tune), there can only ever be 1 Steven Tyler, 1 MJ, 1 Steve Perry, 1 Aretha Franklin, so on....enjoyed the upload.
"To this day, his voice remains almost exactly as it was 4 decades ago which very few singers can achieve." Just an itsy-bitsy little exaggeration...... As well as Tyler's voice has held up, he does NOT sound like he did 20-25 years ago (nor could he expect to). His rasp is deeper now, and he has lost his upper-end some...at almost 72 (his bday is in two days)
Steven tylor es un Baritono!!! Las primeras veces que escuchaba aerosmith pensaba ciegamente que el era un tenor pero despues de repetir varias canciones una y otra vez me di cuenta que las notas bajas son completamente de un baritono, tambien soy un baritono y suelo escuchar bastante musica de este tipo de voz porque hoy en dia ya no quedan muchos. Lo que lo hace mas increible porque es como el logra romper un poco ese limite fisico de las cuerdas vocales y a veces pasar G4-A4. Todo cierra, por eso a veces sus cuerdas vocales fueron dañadas, el canta en su limite fisico de sus cuerdas y obviamente les hace daño, por eso tambien sus notas altas salen rasposas, y tambien tiene un gran rango de falsetto como suelen tener otros baritonos Definitivamente no es un tenor, en la masterizacion de sus canciones tratan de quitarle el cuerpo y "maquillarlo" como un tenor Es un lujo entre los baritonos
What you wrote here is what his vocal trainer said! When producers took Tyler to this trainer, he saw Tyler's vocal apparatus was a complete wound because his real voice is low and he overstrains himself to sing in high voice.
His isolated vocals are not that great or spectacular. He's good. He's pitchy at times. But it adds character. Ken tamplin did a great isolated vocal video on him.
I am not a singer and not an expert, but I do know that you are as wrong as humanly possible about the key. Steven, while being absolutely amazing, has nothing to do with bel canto. Absolutely nada, nothing, period. There is no pushing of the voice in bel canto. Tyler does push and push and push. That defines it as completely impossible to be compatible with bel canto. So, sir, you are simply wrong. This has to be stated because there might be some confusion. Some kids might stumble across this video and say, Tyler is bel canto while he clearly isn't. Completely true about the legend and one of the greatest of all times though. I love love love love love his work!!!!
sbphillips177 his technique it is based on a really squished and thin sound. Though with proper breath support from the diaphragm which is what people miss understands as bel canto. He has no big sound rather than a thin one with big development of the upper mixed register later in his singing career with a really forward placement and mask of the sound
I heard him live once, was amazed that his voice sounds just as good live as it does on records.
bullshit. i saw them in the 90s and every single bit of the show sucked. add to that , i had the album live bootleg when i was young and it sucked.
I am a drummer of 46 years and lifelong dedicated. Steven is my favorite frontman and one of the most inspiring men in the world to me. What a blessing it must be to take the stage with him.
Steven Tyler is a legend to say the least.. wow, just wow

He is so amazing. I don´t know why he uses the backing tracks, especially on "Dude Looks Like a Lady". When he doesn´t, it sounds wonderfull anyway

The secret is he snorted half of Peru.
The Weatherman I watched that video right before this
Which video?
Akashdeep Das late late show with james corden- spill your guts or fill your guts with steven tyler
HAHA I remember him saying that.
Hah, yep.
Steven Tyler is like the voice in my head. Love him!!
Saw Aerosmith in mid 70s and they stunk up the place! Fans left in droves while they fought on stage. Seen them 3 times since. Some of the best shows I’ve seen! Gotta give it to him! He keeps on kickin’ ass!
Steven Tyler's voice is extraordinary! He is the best rock singer for me.⭐️😍😍🌟😍⭐️❤️
❤❤
I call what Steven does is "Vocal Gymnastics" And he is the best at it!
Shit I always thought that was the guitar! Steven Tyler never cease to amaze me
Foo Hoe Vincent Low it's weird I can hot a E6 BUT NOT A C5?
One of the main reasons I a Aerosmith, Steven Tyler fan is the way he sings and his style of singing ❤
Away from his talent and voice, Steven is such a cool and down to earth guy looove him!
Met him once... Amazing man ... incredible voice
I love Steven Tyler.
He is the greatest English-language singer ever
@N Vannote
Your face is a stupid bitch
N Vannote did u have to insult her?
Not by a longshot, but he is amazing. No one is better than Freddie Mercury.
Jordan Forbes I don’t get the hype on Freddie tbh
JF 15 Freddie got nothing on Steven
Best ever,I am sooo lucky to have seen it it live for 50 yrs...so glad God has kept them together...
Peace and love to you ❤❤

There is no one I love more than Steven Tyler; I don care what he snorted or smoked!!
I'm just happy he is still alive!!!
It's pretty much a tie with David Lee Roth!

STEVEN TYLER FOREVER!
His greatest influence is actually Janis Joplin, not Brown or McCartney. But great video! Loved it!
Igor Lino I thought they were gonna say that too!
Right but I like the Brown & McCartney as descriptions of his voice
And Mick Jagger
Love Steven's vioce
Peace and love to you always ❤❤
I just adore Steven Tyler! "The Demon of Screamin" ❤️
Freddy-Axl Rose- Steven Tyler
axl sounds like micky mouse now
Actually it seems like Axl has improved from that abomination couple of years ago. Saw them last year & sounded as good as back in the 80s.. almost
RivalRiver ha ha yep that was sad
Cail Reed 700 I’m surprised he improved a lot
What about Plant
Steven tyler is the best frontman ever xd!😉
Dj z Skull flash naruto son goku I 100 percent agree!
I love Steven Tyler!!!
In interviews he states he will never use pro tools on his vocals. Which I love. He’s such a great singer.
BS
Good video. I want to show every idiot who think he just screams without techniques lol
He's fucking beast
Great educational video! Subscribed!

Dia adalah Idola saya,,, siapa orang Indonesia yang mengidolakanya?
Actually his biggest singing influence was Janis Joplin
Great video!! Steven is the GOAT
I want to make his isolated E6 my ringtone.
My favorite vocalist of all time
It was also featured in NG episode of Incredible Human Machine.
The Black Crowes were on tour with them years ago and Aerosmith used backing tracks
❤🎉 Steven tyler

what about stealheart?? just asking pls make a vid if stealheart can beat steven Tyler
I think the song "crazy by. Aerosmmith" is more difficult to sing than she's gone, because of that E6 part.sounds like whistle🤘🔥
James Brown, Paul McCartney and of course.. Janis Joplin
The demon of screaming 🤘🎶🎉unreachable unique singer!
MARK BAXTER, Steven’s and my Vocal Therapist, are the REAL SECRET!
THE GREATEST!!
Sinatra also utilized the Bel Canto method of breath control.
i thought video was just starting when it end: :D
I have an idea to get those pitches. Alittle Lemon juice

Steven Tyler defines legend, not legend defining Steven Tyler.
i loved this video

Noone is gonna talk about this narrator's silky voice and nice tone?
5 greatest male vocalists of all time: Prince, Steven Tyler, Chris Cornell, Michael Jackson, Bilal
Shmuel Hirsch plus Robert Plant and Freddie Mercury
You forgot the greatest....Freddie Mercury
@@apshaco9482
You can't compare Prince and Steven Tyler, they have different styles of singing. That's like saying apples are better than oranges.
@@apshaco9482
Well for being such a bad singer, he certainly made a ton of money.
@@McFlurry-OREO1 who is a bad singer
even to become 10percent of him is my dream.
Please do axl rose
he's not one of the best, c'mon don't insult him.. he's the BEST singer in the world, only him.. alone
i'm tired of people keep saying ONE OF THE ffs
One of the greatest rock front men ever?
Dude...who the fk is better?
His isolated vocals are not that great or spectacular. He's good. He's pitchy at times. But it adds character. Ken tamplin did a great isolated vocal video on him.
hit that E6 note baby! the male Mariah Carey!
How is he 40 years old
He’s actually in his mid 70’s lollll
Enjoyed the video but C3-E6 is not 4 octaves (C3-C4, C4-C5, C5-E6) That is very impressive but it is not 4 octaves
The vid was saying that's just the speaking range though, he can sing lower than speaking range I'm sure?
Came here after learning that he blew out his larynx two months ago
My hero
That's not falsetto. That's him actually hitting that note without faking it like the Bee Gees. Learn the difference.
Here's just one reason BECAUSE WE HAVE EARS
YEAH!
bEST TO ever BE
A lot of tenor singers can go above C5. It's not uncommon. Most of those professional singers from the 70s could easily get close to Soprano C.
Thats true. Even I can go up constantly to a G5 and sometimes an A5 without any vocal lessons or any kind of education
note was e6 most male tenor screamers top out around a5 max, female soprhano top c is c6...some range
One of his biggest influences is actually Janis Joplin
I dont get it myself. !st, there is no vibrato in his voice. As far as octaves, being screech yayayayayaya hardly qualifies as useful singing range
Perfect for raw emotional rock Music
Jungkook Daily vocal exercises please.
He born with her!Kkkkkkkk
I am not a singer and not an expert, but I do know that you are as wrong as humanly possible about the key. Steven, while being absolutely amazing, has nothing to do with bel canto. Absolutely nada, nothing, period. There is no pushing of the voice in bel canto. Tyler does push and push and push. That defines it as completely impossible to be compatible with bel canto. So, sir, you are simply wrong. This has to be stated because there might be some confusion. Some kids might stumble across this video and say, Tyler is bel canto while he clearly isn't.
Completely true about the legend and one of the greatest of all times though. I love love love love love his work!!!!
Not even bongiovi can sing like he used to at his age!
Roger Taylor left the group
50+ years my friend ;) not 40
The why Rocker Or metalhead kinda boring to listen to pop mainstream music because of they are getting used to listening to Crazy things like this.
His style isn't bel canto at all lol
This is wrong Steven's technique ain’t Bel Canto in fact his sound is exactly the opposite to Bel Canto
Its not? what then is it?
sbphillips177 his technique it is based on a really squished and thin sound. Though with proper breath support from the diaphragm which is what people miss understands as bel canto. He has no big sound rather than a thin one with big development of the upper mixed register later in his singing career with a really forward placement and mask of the sound
Bon jove should take note
tyler and bel canto? are you kidding me?
LOL. He had laser surgery to repair his voice, so yeah time and abuse can, and did, affect it.
Yeah I hope jon bonjovi too, his voice was gone so fast
