@@asgeirsoe It's covered by the caption for some devices
Thank you ！
❤
Oh wow hi everyone!! Thanks so much for this breakdown George 😄
The middle layer is a riff originally created by Sammy Rae which I then wrote the harmonisation around. I practised this a LOT before this tour and am singing to a click running into my ears to help with timing for anyone who is curious!
this was so good i cannot stop coming back to it
Amazing performance, wonderful, transparent explanation! You rock!
I recognized that Sammy Rae riff and was so excited, the harmonies you added are glorious! 💖
Ellie Dixon Sammy Rae crossover is everything I live for
@@Cantskatemcd I got both of them on my every day playlist ❤❤❤
Flailing your arm up and down trying to sing harmonies is so real.
She's just conducting herself. 😄
NO FR i do this all the time to hit the exact note
theater kid behavior
Visualizing the levels of sound
Yeah it’s hard not to when you really need to get it right 😅
Hitting one note is hard enough.
Sing a section well is amazing.
Sing three melodies correct is super good.
Make them harmonize together is where I don’t have any words left.
On beat
@@georgegividenagreed, the timing is the truly impressive part here!
Try looping something. The timing is much harder than the intonation.
@@gregorgiebel1377this. people be acting like singing in tune is amazing lol
@@georgegividenthat’s the easy part. Prob has a clicktrack in her ear
Pulling that low line from memory with no reference… amazing
The low line IS the reference, also pretty sure she did have a reference based on how she said level 1
Haha true you must be a musician
you didn't understand what the op meant. He or she is referring to relative pitch, it's so difficult to create the first pitch without having anything to refer to and "mimic." She is just a skilled musician who can replicate the reference pitch without any reference to the starting pitch itself, meaning, she has no instruments other than the memory.@@carlosmendozapiano
@@CeRzI think they meant that the way she said "Level 1" was her using her voice to match a reference pitch from an instrument. What you're describing seems to be perfect pitch, which she may have and then she wouldn't need any external reference, but I'm under the impression she doesn't have perfect pitch because of how she introduced the first level
And I don't think you understood Carlo's comment. She obviously has a click on her ear and since she sang 'level 1' to tune herself, it's very likely she had a tone in her ear to tune herself too. You can also see her looking to the side to the person who is probably playing the click and probably a note so she can reference it. The precision is obviously impressive but it wasn't the first note she sang, it was the 'level 1' and she may be comparing it to a synth or whatever in her ear. She may even have a drone on her ear playing to make it even easier to be in tune @@CeRz
she could be her own barbershop quartet (as long as you're willing to listen to a song 4 times in a row)
Solution: Clones
@@botabonk1253Didn't think of that
I just listened to this 4 or 5 times in a row 😊
Yes I am very willing pls
That 'yooooOooOoouuuuu' made my ear tickle
I can't believe how perfectly she matched the timing and intonation of each voice. I might just stop practising my singing cause clearly the apex has been reached and wr can all stop trying 😂
that’s not a reason to stop trying. You don’t sing to become the best, you sing because you enjoy it, and I assure there are things you could sing that she couldn’t dream of singing
@@veronica_sawyer_1989 been singing for 23 years and have never heard anyone call my singing good- but I'll be damned if it doesn't stay fun. Original comment was hyperbole, I'm way too loud to shut up ;)
she had an in-ear metronome btw, still sooo impressive tho
@@pengU1n_pardon helpful but yeah still wild. Mustve practised a shitton!
Don't you just hate when that happens? People can be so inconsiderate, pulling the rug out from under someone. Well, at least you can always fallback to shower singing. 😊
The "you can jive" in the harmony reminds me of something, but I can put my finger on what.
Ancient Egypt
Spooks karma hotel?
old disney arabia , aladin
It reminds me of Settle Down by Kimbra, for some reason
And the low "having the time of your life" sounds like a riff straight out of the JoJo's Bizarre Adventures soundtrack!
OMG 😲 I have absolutely no idea what 'crunchy' is, but i absolutely love it. I also love when singers do this, take an extremely iconic song & spin it on it's head to create something quite different, but just as iconic. She did a beautiful job with this.
It’s a trendy word for dissonant, and not even meaning dissonant, but when people just sing or play non-diatonic intervals. In other words, jazz harmony.
@@andybaldmanthis is a public service which I thank you for
@@StaringCompetition Welcome!
@@andybaldman I'm truly ignorant when it comes to music, so only have a rough idea what dissonant is & absolutely no clue what non-diatonic intervals are, 😂 but i kinda get jazz harmony. Like material arts, i don't have to understand the art form to appreciate it. Thanks muchly for the explanation, it gives me something to look up in search of similar stuff, so i appreciate your time & effort. Take care & stay safe ☮️💜 From 🇨🇦
@@andybaldmanthanks for this. I didn’t know what it was either. “Crunchy” doesn’t seem like a fitting word though to describe such cool sound though
Was scared it wouldn't sound good t'il I heard the second melody and the whole thing came together beautifully 🤧❤️
The channel is Jacob collier’s, there’s no reason to be 😂
@@seanstoltz6957 this is george collier not jacob collier, and no they aren't related
god what is this genre?? im obsessed with the lowest line its so ... funky?? like latin inspired? i want to listen to the whole song just as her singing the low (or low and middle) melodies
Level 1 is when altos get their sheet music in choir like 😐 and level 3 is the sopranos singing the melody and living their best lives. 😂
So real 😂
Growing up as an alto in choir, I always thought the harmonies were far more fun to sing than the melody. Still do 🤷🏻♀️
@@khyronjones5809 we love to see it. One of the choirs I was in always sang pop songs, so I mostly feel this way from having to sing Maroon 5 repeating the lowest monotone note while singing every other word of the melody. And doing it for five straight months like, “Na. na. Morning. Na. Na. Na. Na. Yaaa.” Meanwhile sopranos like, 🎶☝️😆🎶 “Sunday morning rain is FALLInG. YEEEeeaaa-ah!” It sounded good but was brutal haha
Ooooooh, that's hella smooth
It’s scientifically proven that moving your hands in the direction of the notes you sing helps you actually nail it every time. Trust me, I’m a professional. I will be taking no criticisms at this time ❤☺️ fr tho her voice is so beautiful, this was a treat to hear!
I have students do this all the time. Works like a charm.
I absolutely LOVE IT when there is harmony and dissonance between two voices/melodies and suddently: AN OCTAVE!!!! IT'S SO GREAT
(2nd part, at "time"
Having the _time_ of your life)
Since those notes you're referring to are actually at the same pitch, it would be more accurate to call it "unison"! ^_^
I've seen songs be flipped before. But. This is like if you turned it 90 degrees. Somehow its amazing.
As somebody who records vocal harmonies frequently, the hand movement she is doing helps sooo much. With normal vocals, it’s fine. I can pitch correct 1-3 layers, no problem. If I’m doing some 70 layer harmony stack, id rather eat the first thing I grab, while blindfolded, from the union station’s lost and found bin than correct every single track. So, the hand comes out. I’m not fully sure if the movements I do are actually accurate. I would only know if I got a theremin. However, I think that placing the idea of pitch into a physical movement helps me to actually pay attention to pitch. Especially with vocals that have a lot of quick, drastic and/ or unusual pitch changes.
damn didn't know she was doing a loop and at first i was like "well that was super off" and then the third loop came and was like secksy time explosion.
That was wild. Crazy crunchy voicings, great performance.
As a British person, every time I hear one of my compatriots singing this song, the open "AH" vowel in "dAHncing" is really jarring to me.
You are not alone.
Horses for courses. I find it so refreshing and beautiful. I love it when people sing in their native accents (whatever they are). I'm a Brit myself. We're SO used to hearing people singing pop in US accents. I personally love hearing it not adhered to that way.
This feels like watching someone solve an equation that doesn't make sense using maths I have never encountered before.
I'm used to crunchy being a person who does not like technology.
Ughhh it's incredible how she can layer this so much in just 3 repetitions
I LOVE YOUR HARMONIES. Just took about 30 mins practicing on piano/voice and gonna show my bf when he gets home. You’re a genius.
How many times have you watched this?
Me: yes.
i remember hearing the middle melody originally as a sing in one breath challenge - the harmonies are so clean and such a nice addition 👌
yep from sammy rae
Ok, I've already watched this like 10 times
Been reading comments, replied to a couple, made one of my own, been listening to this on repeat the whole time. Only typing this so i can listen another dozen times. 😂
If "Dancing queen" was made by Rebecca Sugar
Not what I was expecting by "crunchy."
Better than what I was expecting.
if this is completely raw and she can just naturally get her voice that precise then I will quit music altogether that’s incredible
I want a full versi9n so bad 😭
This is what fergie thought she was doing that one time she sang the national anthem.
We sing this in choir as a warm up 🤍
even those notation are smiling, am I the only one who look the tab and see bunch of smiling notes
Honestly the use of the hand positions for the visualization of intervals is super helpful I started doing it a while ago and now sometimes ppl make fun of me for it but they JUST DONT GET IT, GUYS! 😂
The harmony for the first 2 parts on “having the time of your life” is so tastey
Watched this 20 Times in a row
Nobody: "You watched it HOW many times?"
Me: "Yes."
incredible arrangement
Oh my god she’s an amazing singer! Sure it’s nothing like the original but it’s great at the end when it all comes together! i think it sound great
It’s amazing that she did all the harmonization in one voice, idk how she trained to make her voice do different rhythm but bravo!
"You can jive"? Damn. I thought the song was telling me I could die
Mesmerizing
Reminds me of Freddie Mercury doing live tape loops
This raised some hairs for sure............
Underrated
That's shadow, nah?
If it wasn’t a shadow, are you implying your judgement on something?
the comment I was looking for
@EJElectric it was more impressive than the jazz, really.
I want level 4 👺
So beautiful, and so satisfying to hear the stack of notes and notice different things...looped like 100 times
Absolutely brilliant
So clever how her hand movements are muscle memory to remind her of where her notes are. ❤
It is most amazing how she changes the melody but keeps the same vibe as the original. Well done!
Goosebumps bro, literal goosebumps😂
i think i heard sammy rae do this too. good stuff
Imma need a full song of this - amazing!
Agreed!
You and I have very different definitions of crunchy, my friend.
Oh what gorgeous harmony!
Look at her face when someone wooohs right before the 3rd harmony.
I dont know how many times i just watched this replay 😊
epic!
Karen Carpenter used to jive from her own recordings this way. My brain is delightfully relaxed. Thanks.
I’ve never heard someone sing the kind of stuff I’d play for solo and ensemble contest in high school wow
Not what I was expecting and I love it!!
So happy to see Ellie's content here ! She's such an incredible artist !
Like butta! 🧈 Perfection.
The music notes make smiley faces, and i love the whole thing, and thats how it makes me feel!
Oh that's so fun, my barbershop chorus sings a very similar four part version of this as warmup!
bach came up with a technique for writing harmony like these . he said to view each harmony as a separate melody as long as it is in the same key and you dont repeat notes . and it works . jacob collier does this too .
Daamn those harmonies
oh hey it's ellie dixon!
I've never seen a vocal loop this good before. It's incredible.
Level one and two together just had a certain vibe that’s different than when three is added in.
Awesome rework! I really appreciate the more telegraphed attacks compared to the sorta unpredictable probes and lasers of the original. Looks harder than vanilla Destroyer but in a more fair, learnable way
Level 2 is amazing
Wow! Such lightness and with incredible control!! If you dig her voice I bet you’d be into Sammy Rae and the The Friends too
Just stopping in to say I LOVE Sammy Rae & the Friends 🙌
It’s so nice to see a Sammy Rae fan in the wild
First time I've seen someone mention them!
Yes! The singer also commented on here and credited this riff to Sammy who originally created it.
@@pineappleshavepeelings oh right, she made that TikTok challenge years back! I totally forgot about that! Hearing Elle’s soft ascending major 7th on “watch that scene” must have activated some deep Sammy Rae memory, because WHO ELSE DOES THAT?!
I would cause mortal harm to a large animal to hear level 4.
This was amazing.
I love this!❤ my dad was in a bluegrass band. And to be able to sing with the band, you had to be able to jump from one part to the other on command. My daughter’s violin teacher was amazed that I could do that without written music. If it comes down to nature or nurture, I’d say you have an advantage when you hear it all of your life, but the quality of your voice is wonderful! I really enjoyed listening to this -that is a God-given talent-
best wishes
That is so freaking pretty!!!! X3
That was wicked entertainment. Well done!
E a r g a s m
Being able do that with just your voice... on the fly!!!
I could watch this memorizing performance another 30 times more np
Gorgeous
So many people commenting on her body hair and it disgusts me how people say that kind of stuff! It’s her body, she can choose how she wants her body hair to look. People on the internet should not be policing how much/where ladies or anyone shave. There’s no rules about what she should shave and i think she looks beautiful and has a great voice and musical skill.
My only that but everybody is hating on her rendition of dancing queen. Like why? It’s not supposed to be exactly like the original. It sounds great and it’s really impressive. But nobody here seems to give a shit about that.
It's hot
She has a song called Ugly all about this. Highly recommend
Didn't notice the body hair
I love this video
I'm in tears
disco girl, coming through, that girl is you ooo ooo ooo
so many haters, I don’t understand
I have knowledge of cords, but I can tell, you have to be very talented to do this.
Ellie Dixon is amazing 🍀
As someone who is currently in a production of mamma Mia , this is so cool
I love your videos that have whispered/soft spoken explanations accompanied by small tool sounds 💕
Reminds me of Dodie. Will have to find her on Spotify
When it said crunchy I thought we were rewriting the lyrics to be about going barefoot and drinking raw goats milk 😂
now THIS is art
Unwind, Scythe, and The Testing were pretty good, especially Scythe.
Wow. 😮
woww
I LOVED THIS. Isn't crunchy an insult??
I danced and broke down in tears this moved me thank you
Dig in the Darncing Queen ✨✨✨
