You’ve been so instrumental to my training these last few weeks. I just noticed your most recent video was posted a year ago. I just want to say thank you for sharing your gifts with us. xx.
This was a strange video for me! I've been hearing-impaired since I was eleven years old, so hearing and isolating vocal harmonies has never been a struggle for me - in fact, sometimes I'd hear a harmony so much better than the main vocal that I thought it WAS the main vocal, and been surpirsed when I heard others singing the same song but with a melody I'd always thought of as a harmony. It seems to happen more often with strong high harmonies than strong low ones. I was singing the 'wrong' vocal to 'It's Only Natural' by Crowded House for AGES before someone poointed it out to me that I was actually doing the higher harmony instead. I could still hear and isolate the lower, main vocal if I focused on it, but it was so much quieter and less obvious to me that I'd always assumed THAT was the harmony line... if you hear the song yourself, you'll get what I mean.
Harmony is the best thing in music for me! It adds so much flavour and beauty to a melody. I can harmonise pretty good when it comes to high harmonies but I get confused with lower harmonies…still learning!
thank you so much for this video. i really needed this .i'm really learning a lot from you
Thank you Matt for this video!🙏 ❤ I'm going to take this as my homework. Thank you for these tips.
Good on you for including Once in the intro! Wonderful movie and soundtrack!
Good tutorial 👌 like it well done sir 👏.
Very cool. I recently watched a documentary about Harry Nilsson (if you remember him. What a beautiful voice), and there was a comment where someone complained to him that he didn’t credit his backup singers in the album. Turns out, Nilsson sang ALL his own backup parts himself. Now I’m going to go into his UA-cam music videos to separate out those harmonies. Thank you!
Update: oops, that didn’t work. I guess he died before the technology was there. But they did have a Without You acapella, which is cool.
So now I’ll check out some Eagles and Crosby,Stills, and Nash ‘cause I always loved their harmonies. Yeah, I know, showing my age, lol.
Great video, Matt! 1) were your oo oo’s from the Lord Huron song “The Night We Met”? Thought I recognized it. 2) thanks for the Audacity tip, never used that software so this motivates me to look into it. 3) Loved your story about being a kid and fiddling with the headphone jack. That was a real memory lane moment for me. I remember discovering that too accidentally then using it to hear the bass parts of songs. I wasn’t a bass player or anything just thought it sounded cool. Another example, my folks and then later I myself drove beat up used cars where the car speaker wiring was either going bad or where it would become unseated going over bumps in the road. So drive along blasting your tunes, hit a bump, and hear a whole different part of the song! Kind of fun actually until the sound went out altogether. ... Re actually singing harmonies, thank you for the demystifying, encouraging words that it’s not necessarily easy or “natural.” I find I need to know a song inside and out to have the confidence to hold a harmony line vs drift back to melody.
Fun fact, my friend is a bass player. His wife can’t hear the bass in songs!🤯
Does Mike Dirnt harmonise with Billie Joe in this part?
Yes
When we drive, I challenge my children to listen for a voice they've never heard before when we're listening to something familiar.
I think it's easier to harmonize because I can't hear my voice when I find the melody [which is usually too high for me, so I find it an octave below...]. BUT, reproducing my improvised harmony is always the challenge.
[Once upon a time, I was singing 'around' the melody in church and the (old) couple in front of me, both of them, turned around and looked at me funny! I just thought, "Hey, it's not my fault you can only sing melody."]
Hey Matt! You should do a reaction video on Arthur Nery!
U’r from KY too?!? R u still n KY?
Lol, awesome.
"Basket Case" unlocked harmonies for me, too. It came on the radio while I was driving with a buddy of mine who just out of nowhere started singing the harmony. I had no idea he could sing! To this day it's my favorite Green Day song and I like to play around with harmonies every time I hear it.
also make a reaction video on jubin nautiyal (Indian singer)
I love audacity.
