I am going to begin work on a vocal range showcase for each of her studio albums (minus "A Public Affair," because, well ...) Which would you guys like to see first?
@@scotthasanosebleed Yeah, I figured I'll go in order. I'm going to try to make the showcases as comprehensive as possible, so the videos may end up being pretty long. Sweet Kisses is going to be tough because she was literally breathing 5th octave notes back then, phrasing them multiple times just on verses alone lol.
@@scotthasanosebleed Here's the link of the performance I got the clip at 1:40 from. It's very low quality, and I tried my best to clean up the audio a little bit. ua-cam.com/video/WclEL1t9yJY/v-deo.html
Yeah, she belts a high G at the end of "I Belong To Me," but that was really the only standout vocal moment on the entire album. There just wouldn't be much to showcase in a vocal range video for that album, you know? @@موديالنعيمي-ض1ط
3:34 to 3:38 one of the best E5s ever sung by any singer, period…. Projected, OPEN, ROUND, RESONANT, FULL, and on a CLOSED VOWEL? Geez… that was incredible. She’s made fun of a lot because of the placement her label pushed for her to have to create that god awful baby voice that was so popular in the late 90s early 2000s… but there’s no denying her vocal capabilities were enormous. Really wish she were to hone them again.
I love this video!!! She is a very consistent singer. Its so hard to sustain upper belts with steady vibrato under immense straining. Her pitch was always fine. Her stamina can beat a lot of singers. I like how she contributed to atheist by sexualizing Oh Holy Night. I am mad there is no high note in her new songs
She is consistent in the sense that she always manages to get the notes out but very inconsistent in her technique. Like I said she'll go from hitting a note quite easily with a pleasant enough quality and then on an easier note use such a strange placement and make it seem like the hardest note in the world.
@@brianmelnick1117 I think she has very consistent technique. She had the decent warm voice when she was not belting. When she started to belt, all of the unhealthy singing combined.
@@despairingleonardo Her voice was never consistently supported at all except for that Broadway performance. Also I am mainly talking about her belting. The technique certainly wasn't consistent there.
I have to agree. Technique is most definitely NOT something that I'd ever credit her with. Natural range and ability? Of course. But definitely not technique. Her technique is what actually destroyed her potential.
She'll go from sounding excellent to a complete hot mess within seconds. It's like she forgets how to project her voice then suddenly remembers and then forgets again. Great stuff to work with but couldn't quite figure out how to use it consistently.
This is accurate. She is capable of some pretty impressive range. Her third album is when she start to focus heavily on the C5 and F5 belts. Which are fine but they happen so suddenly sometimes it's very jarring. The more of a response she got from the crowds on the belts, the more she focused on them. With some vocal lessons, she could probably get back the agility she had from the earlier albums.
She gets so much hate from unknown youtube vocal "experts". She has an amazig voice, some of the songs her label gave her were shit. That Angels cover was really bad imo, also Take my breath away. With better songs she would be more respected. Her Broadway projection was really good also her few gospel songs and her uptemo 90's hits.
No one says she didn't have a good voice or great range, just that her technique was generally atrocious which it was. She could have done a lot better with the natural abilities she had, that's the entire point.
@@brianmelnick1117 I don't think she had an atrocious technique... her debut perfomances like A chorous line, your faith in me, I think im in love and I wanna love you forever proved that. Later on her carrer I think she was told to do that Britney baby voice and she started to "swallow" her belts instead of projecting and supporting them, or maybe she was under heavy stress and her voice got resented.
@@NekoPetrovsky It was good in the Chorus Line performance but once she got signed as a pop artist her technique gradually got worse and worse. It was not great on her debut, she just had a very high tessitura and her voice was fresh so she was able to manage.
Nothing happened. She's still amazing. 😕 She had to take a break for a few years for vocal damage but then released an amazing album. But people stopped caring about great singing. 😕
I loved it! Some high notes and great belts are not included though, love Jessica Simpson, thanks for posting and making some justice to her music🎉 We all know her labels were always telling her how to sing and what to sing ☹ she still sounded great most of her live presentations
xtinafan06 she released a book/audiobook and she talked about how Columbia (her record label) forced her to lose 15 pounds literally as they were signing her. The ‘Irresistible’ era they legit forced her to work out when she didn’t want too and she got down to 102 pounds in the Irresistible music video. They also told her to start using the breathy/baby voice more and more. In an episode of newlyweds she did an Initial version of ‘Sweetest Sin’ which was much more bluesy and vocally challenging, the label said it was too ‘challenging’ to sing along too and made her sing it again in a more baby voice/breathy way
Her tone is simply unique , small, nasally sweet tone and her belts are strong she can add distortion and rasp if she wants to for her sound to be bigger because she has a high tessitura and tend her voice to be piercing and whiny. That's why she adds rasp and distortion to her vocals but she can belt it with ease, and the breathy cooing she does is what her stupid record label want, to emulate britney, and for the record she doesn't have a bad technique , I can hear mixed belts and The "Edge" overdrive " technique to her voice, only the best vocalist with great stamina, strength and power can pulled that off cause without those elements y'all be sounding like being choked, cracked and strangled ,and her remember that performance that many people criticize her vocals? Its an emotional song Jessica definitely put emotions through the song, the feelings through, just go watch her Do you know live performance it's a track from the same country album from 2008-2009 and see how she destroys the 5th octave by just phrase belting some C5, D5, E5 up to F5 , and her angels live performance from Utah where she belt it up to A5, it got deleted from ytube it's in the same year of 2009. Over all her voice didn't detoriate she can alter her technique . Im still waitng for the new album 😍😍😍
Honestly, I think she would've thrived with some R & B collabs. Think Taylor Dane, Kelly Clarkson, Celine Dion.... that's the category I would put her in. I could also see her being the witch in Wicked. Heffa can sang and has always been highly underrated to me. They tried to put her in this pop music box.
People need to remember that her label managed her poorly, she used to sing very nicely and was even compared to Mariah stylistically, but the label wanted her to sound more like Britney (or like a Britney that could belt high notes), that’s when she started with the vocal fry and the baby voice and that’s what killed the little technique she had, she had to go to the nasal baby voice to another register in her full voice and then she forgot and used the nasal baby voice to belt and sounded bad (like the infamous take my breath away performances). I wish she relaxed a little bit more a used her natural gift.
100% I know her mouth is naturally enormous (it's not just when she's singing, because even when she just smiles with her mouth open she looks like a great white lol) but she absolutely overdramatized the expressions.
When someone ALWAYS sings live (and doesn’t lip sync) and sings with emotion, you’re going to see expressions. She has a huge voice and to get the maximum effect, there has to be some faces made (like Whitney Houston did for example). You don’t see those expressions on many other artists because their lip syncing. Geez, y’all just nit pick at anything just to throw some shade. I guarantee she sings and looked better than you so just stop. It’s not a good look.
The problem with Jessica Simpson was she had one volume, Loud. Jessica was of the belief that you had to belt all the time to show you can sing. It's more challenging to sing softly than to project. That's the difference between Jessica & Christina. Christina has performances where she's not belting, and she's relying on her natural tone. Another difference is, Christina's voice has improved with age. So have her technical abilities. Jessica always seemed to be yelling while she was hitting her high notes. I personally thought Mandy Moore was better than Jessica Simpson vocally. Jessica yelled.
Es una lastima que teniendo la voz que tiene no haya caído en una disquera que haya sabido manejarla y cayo en una que solo vio la plata y no su talento queriendo hacerla una copia de Britney Spears.. Tenía todo para brillar pero siempre la infravaloraron demasiado.
she had the style but lacked the technique and seriously lacked discipline in whatever technique she did manage to have. she had an amazing voice nonetheless and she had so much great potential to be known as an actual vocalist
Potencial ela tem, mas precisa de técnica e disciplina na execução desses agudos... As composições que ela cantava sempre com vários excessos de agudos, acho que ela gravava sem pensar que futuramente teria várias apresentações ao vivo... Muito arriscado, porque ela não tem precisão.
I think she just doesn't get how to do the whole diva vocals. It's not just the notes or the run or the power, it's about delivery. Mariah, Whitney and Celine are great cause they know how to sing dramatically while still thinking about making it sound beautiful. And Christina at least has the swagger and songs to pull these kinda things off. Sorry but even with all her potential, Jessica will always just be an imitator of the greats.
@@mandyjuelz and, did I say I was? lmao. Neither are you, clearly. Nor do you have much common sense. Many singers with massive voices don't end up looking like hippo mouths.

So very true. If only.
I’ve never heard her sound like a “hot mess.” Everytime she sings, she leaves me speechless…in a good way.
