• Taylor Swift live voca... - Розваги
Another thing people don't realize is she was also struggling with an eating disorder for a period of time which obviously effected her stamina and support during those long, intense live shows. She's in a much healthier place as an adult and it shows. :)
I read today that she said she's the happiest and in the best place she has been in her entire life so yeah I'm happy she managed to get through all the shit she got thrown at her
I really think this is a huge factor. It’s insane how healthy she looks now, and I mean she must be. Just watching her during the Eras Tour, there’s no way she doesn’t have a personal trainer and nutritionist.
@@RachelPalmiero She is very fit. To prepare for the show she started running on the treadmill singing the entire setlist (which is nearly 3h long!) every day for 6 months
Does it ever? She does 3 hour concerts with choreography and still sounds great at the end! and she doesn't sing to a track either. It's all her! It's insane someone could even do that!
Absolutely. Feeling winded/tired makes it so hard to keep breath control and if you're not breathing well, it's hard to sing well. Add to that dancing/moving around on a stage, it's understandable that she maybe wasn't at her best. Besides all that, I think it's clear that she's really worked on her technique and expanded her range, and began to use parts of her voice she hadn't before.
I read once that Taylor is a songwriter who sings her own songs, not a singer that writes her own songs and I think that kind of describes it perfectly.
She can hit the notes when she wants but it’s not what she strives to do, instead she strives to tell stories.
She’s a singer songwriter. Cause she Can sings almost anything and sound great, all the covers she had done are so good. There’s others who are songwriter who are not very great at singing but they do, Taylor is singing for 3+ hours. But everything she sings is her creation and it has to be a story tell through music, lyrics, interpretation and performance
perfectly said
I read once that Taylor is a robot run by the music industry in order to print money by maximizing profit from as many fans as possible. The music is mid and easily created by ChatGPT in minutes.
@@MatthewMS. okay, go outside and touch grass, get a massage or something
@@MatthewMS. Hot herbal tea and long walks in the morning will straighten things out. Taylor owns her own music now and will for evermore.
Taylor leaning more into her lower vocal range is the best thing she has done for her singing, as well as taking care of her body properly. She is singing better than she ever has before.
I completely agree. I also believe that people tend to equate great singing with higher notes. When you can be a good singer with a longer range. I mean look at Toni Braxton. And I think that Taylor’s lower range gives her more power to her voice.
Agreed, I tell my husband it’s her soft wispy vocals are my favorite.
She certainly looks much healthier now. It's disgusting to hear people say she's fat. She isn't at all.
@@ItsMaisyDaisy if Taylor Swift is any way shape or form "fat" then I hope we are also also fat like that lol
@@ItsMaisyDaisy She didn't talk openly about having an ED and in the same documentary she said she didn't go to the doctor. In fact, what she did was a disservice. Because anyone knows that disorders need treatment and medical care and they ignored and minimized them in the documentary. Leading anyone with critical sense to see that it could be a lie and that she didn't know how to talk about it.
She ran on the treadmill everyday for 3 months while singing all of her Eras tour songs and took 3 months of dance classes also…that’s how she sings so well while performing…it’s a talent on its own!
Wow! That is incredible
From what I heard she works harder behind the scenes than most artists and it shows. I also love that she dresses in a feminine, but feminine way. Her outfits are absolutely gorgeous as is she.ll
Actually it was 6 months
She's a self-made talent actually. She continuously fought her obstacles and then defeated it. That's how amazing she is.
This really helped made the Eras Tour so much more rich. Muscle memory for her voice and moves.
I would die if you reacted to all of her different albums! Please please please! I will binge watch them on repeat even if nobody else does!!
Seconded!!
literally!!
YESS PLS HANNAH
That makes two of us
UPPPPP
Very big swiftie here. We love new fans and we’re always here to answer any questions you may have! The guy you showed is her guitarist Paul Sidoti, and he has been with her since the beginning. I went to see her in 2018 at the reputation tour and he was in my section saying hi to fans and I was lucky enough to meet him. He’s the sweetest and we even got a picture together!!! If you wanna hear her lower register more I recommend All Too Well (Ten Minute Version). ‘I still remember the first fall of snow, and how it glistened as it fell’ she takes that note on fell LOW low. Also one of my faves is My Tears Ricochet. Also Tolerate It. I could go on and on lmao😂
Yesssss
I would add the Live Grammy Museum performance of Wildest Dreams
So pleaseeee tell me why the 5th track of her albums are so important?
one of my favourite things is when people realise most of her band (the agency) have stayed with her since Speak Now (aka 2010), or earlier, like her bass player Amos or even her background singers who came in later and have stayed for years. It speaks to her character in my opinion.
@@brunacampoxnogueira mainly because All Too Well was track five on Red/TV, track fives tend to be some of her best songs.
I would say Now That We Don’t Talk and Champagne Problems are songs that REALLY show how good her lower register is, would love a reaction to those!
That low C note in Now That We Don’t Talk!!😚👌
yesssssssssss
Taylor mentioned in the Time Person of the Year article that she ran on the treadmill singing the entire 3 hour Eras tour setlist every day for 6 months. She would run during the fast songs and either jog or walk during the slower songs to help prepare her.
That makes sense. I was in awe that she could sing like she was during the tour, long show and it definitely sounded live.
She definitely has a lot of stamina!
i love how kind you remain even when critiquing - if i was a singer i would love to have you as a vocal coach!
Was she kind, or scared of all the swifties? 😅
@@shradhachawan4569definitely scared. I had the same thought 😂
@@shradhachawan4569she was kind, she's always like that in every/most reactions
@@shradhachawan4569 she’s like that in pretty much all her videos, she really does seem super sweet
@@shradhachawan4569I think if the twitter or TikTok swifties saw this video they would probably attack her.
You are correct about the 2014 performance, she was sick with laryngitis and you can here in interviews that she did before and after this performance that she had absolutely no voice so this performance is very good considering she had laryngitis and couldn't talk
Omfg is it bad for u to perform that sick?
@meghansullivan6812 I mean, I knew someone who had laryngitis and it hurt her to tye point that she had to leave the camp we were at for two weeks cause she couldnt do anything so im assuming she was in an amended amount of pain
She had an eating disorder
@@meghansullivan6812o
@Joemoasay ya ik but she literally couldn't talk in the interviews before this performance cause she literally had laryngitis so I'm not talking about her ED rn I'm talking about one performance when she was sick
The guitarist is Paul Sidoti and he, as well as her bassist, Amos Heller, have been with Taylor since 2007. Many of her musicians and back up singers has been with her for years.
I was lucky enough to see The Eras Tour in Arlington, Texas (night one.) She was incredible.
Everyone that she includes have been with her since the fearless tour I think and the only thing that really changed is her dancers
It’s fun to see her performances change overtime as well as her voice. She seems NERVOUS in the beginning. But if you watch the Eras tour she’s OWNING that stage. The whole thing
From what I've seen of the Reputation tour, it looked like she owned that too
@@anjeekutz5262 She was amazing on the Reputation tour!
If you want to know more about Taylor and her evolution as a singer, PLEASE watch Miss Americana!!!!!!!! It's a movie/documentary by Taylor about everything that she's been through and it is incredible to see her backstory and the behind the scenes stuff!!!!!
Yes!!
THIS!!!!!
Yes this too and to see her reaction would be everything
Please do it as a reaction video!
PLSSSSS
I'm a Swiftie and have been for a long time. In my uneducated opinion, she forces her upper range too much because that's more "poppy." Devloping her lower range and leaning into it is where she really shines.
I half agree with you here. Of course I’m no vocal coach expert however I am an aspiring musical theatre performer and hope to one day be on the west end, so I have pretty good knowledge about how to keep my own voice healthy and supported, so here I am slightly projecting onto Taylor.
Taylor’s lower register is indeed beautiful and her voice is more comfortable in lower tones, however I don’t believe she forces or pushes her upper range. If it was forced, you would be able to tell as it would strain her voice beyond repair due to how often she would be straining it. She has learned how to support her voice when hitting notes which perhaps aren’t where her voice comfortably sits, and she’s extended her range from there. Her upper vocal register is very strong, supported, and holds the passion and emotion that her more lower range songs with typically more emotional value have, so she’s not just singing a pop song but she’s taking each note in
@@littlelove13 Thanks for your explanation! It made me realize that what I meant was that the high notes weren't always within her comfortable range and weren't always supported. I just didn't have the correct vocab to say that 😊
@@jenrenbyi mean she does a 3 hour singing show multiple days times a week with pretty low to high notes, so if her notes were strained or not supported, she would have no voice and that’s like certain. she is a very good vocalist in terms of like, she is consistent and knows what she needs to do.
She’s only really had these low notes for the last few years as her voice matures and stuff apparently
I see a lot of singers with her range say they can’t go low like Taylor because of their age being younger and less mature
Her lower pieces in Folklore/Evermore sound AMAZING
Her rock version of “we are never getting back together” from her 1989 tour! Soooooo fun!
Not a huge Swiftie, but I do think the best she'll ever sound belting is performing Don't Blame Me. Her writing on that song is incredible. Sound in general, lower notes and her chest voice is where she lives most comfortably and I think really shines.
If you want vocals, definitely check out Don't Blame Me and I did something bad from the Rep tour.
If you want low notes, I recommend Carolina (some of her lowest notes are here) and her Long Pond Studio Sessions movie.
She's improved her vocals a lot through the years.
and for vocals like basically any surprise song at the eras tour, especially the piano ones like exile, evermore, you're not sorry, I feel like her voice reall ygets to shine in those acoustic perfomances
Say don’t go’s intro also has crazy low notes for her register
@@owenmattes7619 oh yeah, definitely, and Now That We Don't Talk too
@@owenmattes7619 her register is A2-E5 from what I know. There's a girl on tiktok who tries to find Taylor's lowest and highest recorded notes and these are the ones she found. Her actual register may be wider, who knows. I think her vocal coach said that he register is wider than people think, she just chooses to use notes she's more comfortable with.
Yes.
Love this! Just want to note, maybe it has already been mentioned, but around 2011-2014 or so, Taylor had a progressing ED that made her feel faint on stage. She mentions this in her special Miss Americana. That is why, for a few years there, you can see her taking a lot of big breaths for belting notes that didn't need them or sounding/looking nervous or off. So glad she's recovered now and looking, feeling, and performing even more amazingly than before.
I think she has mentioned that she can’t look at her photos from the 1989 era because when she does sometimes I think it made her revert back to that
during the red era, she’s spoken about how she went through a time of starving, her body and that really affected the way she sang and how she sounds especially life because she talked about how she felt like it was so normal to just be absolutely exhausted when she was performing so a lot of her live performances surrounding that time sound different because of that
I thought in the Era Tour her voice was the best ever. She ran on a treadmill and sang all 44 songs to prepare for the tour. She did this for months. Plus she ran on a treadmill for stamina. With fast songs she ran faster and slow songs she slowed down to a jog but she sang all 44 at one session.
Taylor has always struggled with televised live performances. I think it gets to her that the whole nation can see and hear her and she freaks out and tenses up
I totally agree! Her best performances are not the televised ones. I personally liked her Tiny Desk one
@SongsFromASuitcase omg what a crossover, love your videos ❤️
I don’t think this is the case, she is on tour and is VERY comfortable in singing then with millions of people watching
@Joemoasay with people who paid to watch her perform, while anyone can randomly catch her on tv and judge her based on those performances
@@Joemoasay yes. On her tour where she is in a controlled environment.
I heard somewhere that when she got a lot of criticism about her voice when she was younger, she went out and took voice lessons. She's a beast and a queen!
what I've noticed a lot about taylor throughout the years is that her performances from award shows(which are where a lot of these videos are from) are usally her shakiest cause she's nervous but during her live shows she's comfortable and her vocals are confident
Taylor Swift is such a talented person in general. The effort it takes to write songs, play piano and guitar, and sing THIS good is crazy. Taylor’s also just so kind, and you can see that it’s not an act. She’s my forever fav artist. 💖
And if I could request an album of hers to react to, you should definitely do Midnights.
Hannah, as a major swiftie who knows the lore, we welcome you into the swiftie community!!! I’d recommend reacting to the Reputation concert (although it’s leaving Netflix on Dec 30 so you’d have to be fast!) 😄💕
Noo I can’t believe it’s leaving! That makes me so sad.
Nooo why is it leaving??? Is there. Dvd for it?🥺
And Miss Americana!
specifically" I did something bad"
If you haven’t listened to Evermore, you definitely should! It’s my fav Taylor album with my favourite songs being ‘Ivy’ (all the sapphics love ivy) and ‘Cowboy like me’ :)
omg i love right where you left me and tolerate it tooooo
Cowboy like me is so amazing, I can't get sick of it
I love her lower but softer voice vs when she sings loud. I have really noticed this in Reputation and Eras but also with her first 2 albums. I have always loved that soft voice.
The fact that Taylor’s singing has been improving as her career has grown only speaks to her greatness.
No, it doesn't
To get better at your craft and not worse is the literal bare minimum of any career you do 😂
@@laupoe1 her father is a stockbroker and partner in her old record company (he invested 300 thousand dollars in the beginning of her career, in the record company alone) and her mother was a marketing executive for an investment fund. Nepo baby
If I know one thing, it's that Taylor LOVES performing for people. I read somewhere (I forget where) that it isn't that her fans come to her concerts, Taylor comes to the concerts to see us.
That's so cute omg 🥹
I think sometimes people forget she’s been performing for her people long before she even released her debut
I love your analyses. They are so accurate. They don't even feel like a constructing critisism, they're more like academical. I love this ty
The 2021 snl All Too Well performance is not my fave live performance of hers! I distinctly remember hearing it at the Eras Tour and being BLOWN AWAY at the difference.
My favorite clip of her singing is her in the studio recording Don’t Blame Me and she just belts out such an insaneeeee phrase. So good, gives me chills.
You should react to the live from Paris version of Cornelia Street!
In 2014 Taylor had an ED. The whole 1989 tour. She’s talked about it before that she’d thought she was supposed to feel like passing out during or after a show. She’s healthier now and SO confident. Before she always seemed nervous and scared but today she looks like she has so much fun.
I never left a Taylor swift reaction so fast for another Taylor swift reaction😂😂❤
LOOOL SAME
I was like… finally 😂
I'd be so interested in seeing your take on people singing their own songs/stories and how they manage the emotions they may be feeling during the singing process and how that affects their voice
taylor really found her voice on folklore and evermore. not only in a lyric way, but her literal singing voice, sounds so much better
I feel like before she felt the need to be a pop/country pop singer with high notes and pitch, and now she feels more comfortable to highlight her lower notes and let her voice shine
taylor is my favorite artist for so many reasons. it’s insane how much her vocals have improved over the years. i went to the eras tour in june and it was easily the best day of my life. there were so many times when i was in shock because of how good the vocals were.
YESSS HANNAH x TAYLOR! An unmatched duo!
This is the video I didn’t know I needed. As a Taylor fan, I’ve been able to tell how much she’s grown as an artist and performer as the years have gone on . Getting your take on it all was very insightful
My family is going through a hard time right now and this definitely helped ! Thank you for all you do Hannah ! Your videos always cheer me up ! 💜💜🥹
I believe she's used a vocal coach in recent years, which definitely makes sense because her live vocals have definitely improved.
taylor has improved SO much since the beginning i love her
Don't forget that she was born in December, so she often even younger than we think in all those video clips.
Hannah Bayles reacting to more Taylor is EXACTLY what I needed after a 12 hour work day 😭 thank you Hannah for all that you do and for making your incredibly fun content 🫶
i'd HIGHLY recommend the miss americana documentary to every "new" swiftie. that doc gave me such a better perspective on her live performances, especially from around 2012 to 2014. at the time, she was suffering from ED and, later, said she felt weak and like she would pass out on stage. that's another reason for why now, being healthy on top of being an adult with a developed voice, she KILLS IT on stage. she owns it. not only her music, but her voice and own body.
I love her voice in Evermore (the whole album). She has a lot of those low notes there, and she plays with it really well. I honestly think you’d like it. For a specific song I’d say Champagne Problems
Taylor is amazing and she makes people feel her music. There is a lot to be said for that. Your critique was very informative to those who want to respond to naysayers. I’m 73 and I’m also a new Swifty. She’s an amazing artist.
This is not Taylor Swift related but what you said about girls' voices changing and growing tired due to puberty - I wish someone had told me that when I was 15! I had a sore throat for about 9 months and no one could tell me what the issue was! I went to doctors and specialists and even talked to my singing teacher - it was so frustrating but nice to finally have an answer XD
please please PLEASE react to "Carolina", its such a slept on song and completely highlights the lower tones of her voice without showing off, if you've read the book that inspired the song/ that she wrote the song for (Where the Crawdads Sing) you'll understand how lyrically smart it is
YES!!!
That's the first time I've heard that. It's beautiful.
her vocals on the eras tour rn are insane
Insane? She’s a D rated vocalist
Very dramatic language lol
Omg this is the best thing ever. Hannah and Taylor together! We love new Swifties or anyone interested in learning more about her. Please keep up the Taylor reactions! 🙏🏼💕
you're amazing Hannah!!! thank you for posting and making my days more enjoyable 💜
I loved this! Your analysis was so thoughtful, and it’s wonderful to hear someone willing to go beyond just “yes, this moment was good” or “no, this was bad” and give balanced commentary on possible reasons why or how a performance might be better or worse in that moment. More than that, it’s always great seeing someone open and understanding of the fact that people grow. Too much of the criticism of Taylor’s vocal ability is based on years-old performances, from when she was still a teenager or in her early twenties, and comes from people unwilling to recognize the work she’s put in and the growth she’s experienced since those times. If those same critics would judge her ability now on the performances she’s giving now, I honestly believe we could finally put to bed the rampant idea that Taylor can’t sing live. Again, love this, really great video!
I love how respectful and objective this is. Also informative.
Thank you for doing this! You were spot on when you said she wasn’t feeling her best. From around 2014-2016 she was struggling with an eating disorder unfortunately. She’s much healthier and happier now, which we all love to hear!
13:35 that guy is Paul ★ and yes, he has been with her since the beggining, on the Fearless Tour :') a lot of her band member have, their relationship it's so wholesome! I recommend you to watch Journey to Fearless, I did the Taylor movies tour before going to see the Eras Tour Film and I was crying so hard during the Fearless Era because seeing Paul, Amos, etc. was just to much for my poor heart 🥹🥹
Then you should watch:
Speak Now World Tour
1989 World Tour
Reputation Stadium Tour (soon! It's leaving Netflix on 12/30 and we don't know where it's going :c)
Miss Americana (documentary)
City of Lover
Folklore Long Pond studio sessions
And then The Eras Tour again 'cause why not🤭
I’m a more recent Swiftie, too. I listened to a handful of her songs when she first started making music, but so many people around me didn’t like her, so I just didn’t listen to her music. And then folklore/evermore came out and I was hooked. I’ve gone back and listened to all her music now. I feel weird calling myself a Swiftie because I’m not a Swiftie to the level of devotion as some other people, but I do really enjoy her music.
It doesn’t matter what level you are or when you started liking her anyone can be a swiftie
The guy that’s playing in her band is Paul Sidoti and he has been with her since 2007 as a lead guitarist/vocalist. I have pictures of them together at the fearless tour :). He makes music as well.
This is an actual analysis and very helpful critique. I would love to see you more react to Taylor Swift. I genuinely enjoyed this. This might be one of my favorite reactions of her.
My husband and I saw her in St Louis in 2011. She had a very brief wardrobe malfunction but didn't miss a beat, she was so composed and flawless.
Taylor has admitted to undertaking intense vocal training, and it shows today. She’s nothing if not a determined workhorse! ❤
I honestly think this is a super underrated aspect of her skill as an artist. Girl puts in the WORK.
Ikr
@@mikaylaholland5536I mean, she has said it herself. “I’ve never been a natural, all I do is try, try, try”.
Champagne problems and right where you left me have me in tears every single time I hear it!
One of Taylor Swift's vocal coaches is Brett Manning. She also prepared for the ERAs Tour by running and singing the whole set list as she ran.
I really enjoyed this commentary. It was so nice to hear this technical analysis and understand her evolution as a vocalist, which is something we don't always get to see when it comes to singers in the public eye. It's also really enjoyable to hear yiu giving the exact same advice and explanations my own singing teacher has given to me over the last 18 months, and I can attest it really does make all the difference to remove all the tension in your body, and improve your placement.
Hannah in her swfitie era, we love to see it! I'd literally do anything for your reaction to the folklore long pond studio sessions, her deeper vocals have me on a chokehold fr
Love your videos! And the craziest thing is she was sick in quite a few of these performances with colds! She's amazing. Thanks for going over this, it was very informative!❤Love the start of your Swiftie journey!🫶
Brava Hannah!! Such wonderful and insightful vocal analysis. I'm not a taylor swift fan and as a singer myself, I often get frustrated when people try to critique her vocally because they either just sing praises because they don't want to upset her fans or they are just ruthless without being constructive. You've toed the line of being constructive but kind so wonderfully in this reaction video and you also are teaching new singers great techniques and habits that they can do. Absolutely great video!
debut & fearless - very country
speak now & red - country to pop bridge
1989 - pop bible
reputation - pop and its sexy
lover - did you read the album title ?
folklore - storytelling at its finest
evermore - showcasing her lower notes
midnights - pop breakup based on 80s synth
And now TTPD the mystery (so far)
First of all, I want to say you are adorable!
I think you are spot on with your critiques. I never listened much to Taylor Swift until recently. I am terribly sorry I did not follow her throughout her entire career. The woman is a genius! Her superpowers are her everpresent bravery and a willingness to share herself with the world. Intuition and intervoice are her trusted friends.
Perhaps what makes her so appealing is her nack for being real. Couple that with her playful, yet highly intelligent nature, you might find yourself investigating up in the lore. The illustrations she creates are so well thought out and manifest in such a variety of ways that she honestly is a one of a kind, multi-faceted superstar. I am blown away by her never ending increase in knowledge of her trade, her unmistakable generosity toward her employees and fans, and the way she is able to remain humble and Taylor through it all!
This was so helpful, thank you! I’m also a huge Taylor fan, and also getting back into singing after like a decade. This was super insightful and gave me some great tips for my own music 🙏
I would absolutely love to see your reaction to her Speak Now World Tour because there was so soooo much vocal growth between the Fearless Tour (2009) and Speak Now Tour (2011) that is actually wild
omg so excited at the prospect of more Hannah x Taylor content!!! It was so interesting to hear you analyse her techniques, especially knowing Taylor has spoken about how hard she's worked over the years to improve because of criticism. I would really love for you to start with Miss Americana, or the Reputation stadium tour - both are on netflix! But genuinely anything that interests you would be so fun, there's no wrong place to start (for me her music videos were my first obsession lol)! The Tayverse is vast!
this was the video i’ve been waiting for months, thnks for this
Yes!!! I’ve waited so long for you to reacts to Taylor. Exile, my tears ricochet and this is me trying from the long pond studio sessions. Also I knew you were trouble from the 1989 tour-- the lowest notes I’ve ever heard her sing. Thank you so much!
I love your analysis, always so kind.
I love learning about music and singing techniques. You have a great way of explaining things!!
I’m a new swiftie within the last year and I’ve got to say the best songs to react to would be NEVER GROW UP and BETTER MAN!! The lyrics are so smart and they make me cry literally everytime, plus she sounds so good. PLEASE REACT TO THOSE SONGS!!!
Hannah your videos are amazing and so inspiring! ❤❤
Oooooh I am loving the new background, this is the first I have seen it, so I am sorry if this delayed. I'll get around to any videos I may have missed eventually, I usually go on a Hannah binge after I get started on one of your videos.
Please react to the original version of illicit affairs vs the long pond studio session vs the eras tour key change version! It really showcases Taylor's live singing abilities and her vocal evolution over the years.
WELCOME! And omg Hannah I don't think you realize how happy you have made so many swifties today lol. I would LOVE for you to react to Taylor's live performances - I think we would all agree Reputation Tour & The Long Pond Sessions are the most popular and youre gonna get the most out of it for technical breakdown, and then album reviews for lyrics and gushing 😍. This was SO FUN and I LOVE LOVE hearing you break down singing and give advice. I dabble in singing as a hobby and I feel I always learn SO MUCH from you
the last time I performed for entertainment (9 1/2 years ago), my mom gave me the tip of not singing too loudly into the mic because it would do the volume work for me. It really is good advice (especially considering the song was Let it Go)
Her vocals during the long pond recordings are just heavenly
This video makes me happy. I haven't kept up with Taylor Swift, but she was everything when I was in late grade school and junior high. Best friendships were forged swapping favorite lyrics. "Mary's Song" was always my favorite from her early stuff.
Yeah her lower register has become amazing! You can hear it especially in her more recent albums and songs (from Folklore on), the first time I was really struck by it though, was in Carolina (a standalone song for some movie). Oh and yes that guy in her band has been with her since basically the beginning.
I wouldn't call myself a Swiftie necessarily, but I loooooove her lyricism. I'd love for you to react to You're Losing Me! It's sad but so, so good.
omg i would LOVE an album reaction from you whenever the next one (new or rerecord) comes out!!
React to all of them. I love your analyzes with professionalism and without drama
Saw her at the Eras Tour. She was amazing and that is the best concert I’ve been to.
I am pretty sure she has worked with a vocal coach I think she has said as much. Please react to her Live from Paris Cornelia Street. Her control is fantastic!
My favorite live recording ever. So emotional and raw but the singing is still sustained.
Hannah I just watched your collab with Scott Cramer on his channel and I was so excited to see you talking about Glee. You need to do more Glee reactions!
More of these videos!!! I love vocal analysis videos like this! Thanks Hannah =)
Love this reaction! I'm a huge Swiftie. Didn't read through all the comments, but yes, Paul Sidoti, her guitarist, has been with her since 2007! I've been obsessed with her low notes for years. They are so rich! It bugs me that I have to raise the key when I sing songs from folklore, evermore or Midnights. I'm working on developing my lower range now.
I was waiting such a long time for you to do Taylor again, I am glad you finally did haha
- the thing with nervousness, yes, Taylor, especially back in a day, got really nervous while singing at awards shows, cause it was televised live, in front of thousands of people, while at her own concerts she feels much more comfortable and sounds much better
- in the 2014 clip where you said that she's really gearing up for the high note, I am not sure, I could be wrong, but I think she was sick that day actually
Enjoyed listening to critiques! They were informative and respectful. Also, as you said, to people who sing, it was helpful. This is the first and only time I've heard Taylor sing "Better Man." She wrote the song and asked Little Big Town if they were interested in it. They were, and they did quite well with it!!
I’m not a swiftie or anything. I casually listen to Taylor Swift now and then and have been since her early days cuz we’re the same age. I love how you did this breakdown, pointing out stylistic stuff, her vocal evolution, and giving vocal information kindly. It actually kind of made me appreciate her more.
Big development in her voice between 2012-2014 IMO. I was a voice major waaaay back in the day and am now very happily teaching elementary general music, so I'm not in your profession at all...but LOVE what you said about breathing fwiw. Also, the Eras movie is amazing but the tour is a whole experience. Highly recommended if you can swing it!
I am so ready to see her reactions to her albums omg ?
You are such a kind vocal coach with your critiques! I honestly don't think she sounded that great live in her early years, but you can completely tell how much training and work she's put into her vocals. She sounds amazing no matter what.
I do the stink face sooo much! lol was a big part of "Last Midnight" for my "Into the Woods" solo night hahah
Would love to see your reaction/vocal analysis of more of her Eras Tour movie performances, Rep Tour and the Long Pond Sessions.
