Hey you! 😁 please please please check out a singer called Russell Allen. He's the frontman of Symphony X, Adrenaline Mob and many others. He even sang one song w/ Lzzy.
I really enjoyed this interview. I'm glad you found someone who's into vocal science like you are. It was very informative listening to you girls talk about vocalization and vocal care. As well as other things like "shatter me", I love that song but had no idea that was her vocals. Thank you for all that you do here. I really appreciate you.
great interview... btw Voiceplay released Hoist The Colors and it will rock you rworld, that's a full blown musical centerpiece the way they arranged it
If you read this, look up JADA - Colors of the wind. This girl is phenomenal. ua-cam.com/video/IR0oZJ4FD9A/v-deo.html Would LOOOOOOOOOVE to see you do a video with one of her covers.
I worked a Halestorm show as security a few years back. I’ve got to say that Lzzy doesn’t put herself on a pedestal. She’s very level-headed and respectful and treats everyone as if they’re on the same “tier” as she is. It was very refreshing compared to a lot of other artists that I’ve worked with / for.
Lzzy is one of the greatest people ever. She gave a two hour interview, where she talked most of the time, to a UA-cam'r. This isn't anywhere near the exposure of "60 Minutes", yet she gave 120.
@@S04pDr0p Yes, I know. I get it. That's why she is my favorite music reactor. However, she's not a big interviewer or media personality, hence my comment.
Can we just agree that Elizabeth's interviews are the best? Whether it's with Lzzy, Tatiana from Jinjer, Will Ramos, etc.... They aren't like the official interviews, they are like a good talk, a chat time between good friends. That's why those who are interviewed are so relaxed and they happily share their stories. ❤️
No for real. There was this one instance where I was talking to her right outside of her tour bus. It was like 50 degrees and spitting rain. Her "security guard" type person was all "Lzzy, we got to get going." Lzzy literally shooed him away and stayed and talked with us. It was awesome. She is literally the most down to earth famous person I've ever heard of.
The things I love about Elizabeth's interviews is that they don't fell as long as they are and when it's over you feel like you still need more. And that ladies and gentlemen is the mark of a good interview. CANNOT WAIT!
I just hope that I am singing correctly when attempting to match a sound…. Either in the car or karaoke, listen to how they’re speaking about how to breathe, gives me chills
Two beautiful Elizabeths: one a hard rock/heavy metal guitarist/vocalist, one an opera singer. This is a high quality professional chat we rarely see in reaction channel ❤
We own a golden retriever. He has a hard time staying focused especially when a ball is thrown. Elizabeth trying to resist the urge to go get her singing straws and stay focused on the interview has the very same expression. Pure excitement.
@@TheCharismaticVoice Of course I'm far from being an expert but I always thought the straw thing was a normal tool of speech therapy. After my girlfriend had to have her cervical spine removed, her vocal chords were paralysed during the operation. So she had to take speech and language therapy to regain her voice. And one of the things she had to do twice a day was to speak and make noises through a straw. The straw had to be put into a cup with water, probably to increase counter pressure. It worked very well, after half a year or so she could even sing again.
@@VoodooMcVee I had that happen too. I don't sing and I was so sad about my voice for so long, I would have been devastated if I were your friend. I didn't get my old voice back, but it's not a tiny squeak anymore and I can yell, so that's a plus. I hope your friend has been singing her face off. That's a tough one to come back from.
Not only are Halestorm amazing musicians who produce awesome songs - Lzzy is an absolute sweetheart with a beautiful sense of humour and generosity of spirit, and this is why I will support Halestorm forever
Lzzy Hale, you're a true rock star. Elizabeth, you are awesome. "Here's to us" is our family theme song. Thank you so much for all of your music. Arjay is an amazing drummer
I know there's been hundreds of comments, so you probably won't even see this, but I have to say that was without a doubt one of the best interviews I have ever seen. I learned so much about Lzzy Hale and her work ethic, her voice preparation and maintenance, her creative process - and top it all off with the absolute positivity-fest between you two. Simply amazing. Thank you!
This was pure gold. I already admired Lzzy, but after this my respect has gone up. Such a class human being. Two wonderful, genuine people having a funny, nerdy, informative conversation.
I'm not gonna lie, I think my jaw dropped when I heard my name. Thank you, Elizabeth for hosting the best reaction channel on UA-cam. I love how it's evolving and enjoy getting to watch your music education grow. And well......LZZY HALE!!!!
I didn't think it was possible to love Lzzy Hale more. I was wrong. Fantastic interview! I hope the two of you get to meet in person when you see her live.
This is one of the best Lzzy Hale interviews I've seen on YT. Wonderful job Elizabeth! Lzzy is charismatic, real, and disarming throughout. I hope you get the chance to continue to collaborate with these great artists. I want to hear you sing with them too!
Two of the most positive, passionate, empowering, expressive and beautiful women on the planet. I can’t sing for shit, would ordinarily have no interest the technicalities of singing (I just like listening) but Elizabeth’s excitement drags you in and I can’t help but be enthralled while learning stuff.
This was the best interview I have ever seen. It was nerdy, magical. beautiful.loving,etc...This made me very happy. The chemistry between you two was amazing. and wonderful. Thank you Elizabeth.
I love Lzzy and Halestorm and this is by far the best interview I have ever seen from her. Both of you did great and watching you both laugh and nerd out was so much fun. I would love to see you sing together.
I literally came back to this channel to see if you reacted to more Lzzy Hale, no way in the world i expected this. Legend. Lzzy's such an underrated singer in a Pop/RnB world, i wish more people knew the brilliant skill she had. Two beautiful human beings right here.
This is my dream interview! I've always wanted to hear Lzzy talk about her voice and her technique and now i get to hear her talk about it for 2 hours with an expert on vocals, Elizabeth. Thank you charismatic voice for putting this out there. It's perfect!
I love hearing Rockers discussing their trials and how they overcame. The industry creates an image where our heroes and Icons are indestructable, especially in the sex and drugs of Rock-n-Roll. In being transparent on her platform people lift their horns with a hero. That's very empowering. You may never wail like these vocalists but there may be more important ways to identify with them in life, health and positivity.
I got excited when I saw you got an interview with Lzzy and then was like HOLY CRAP it's 2 HOURS and then the first thing Lzzy does is thank YOU for the interview. Unreal that someone so huge and talented is also an amazing person. My respect and love of Lzzy just went up like a million fold!
Your face during this entire interview was literally the best!! When she was talking about "Break in" I thought you might explode. I love your channel... everything is gold
I really appreciate hearing Lzzy's description of "singing therapy." I had no idea this was a concept! The tragedy I'm going through right now, specifically involving spousal MENTAL HEALTH issues, has left me hopeless and hollowed out. Strangely enough, I currently just have anxiety attacks when my emotional limits are reached rather than release through crying. For whatever reason I can't shed the emotional distress that way. It never used to be like this, and most times I can only sleep after absolute exhaustion takes over and the dang anxiety attack is still in full swing when I awaken. It is excruciating. However, it is ironically through my recent discovery and fascination with these videos that I have started singing along with some of my favorite songs again, and I realized the shower/car singing karaoke nerd that I have always been was lost along the way as well. The connection I've made here, getting to the point, is that once I'm singing, a flood of tears and sobbing begin!! The result is this transcendent relief from all of the pain, confusion and heartache that comes from violence and deep betrayal. Needless to say, I needed this, at this very moment in time, more than anyone could know. I don't mean to unpack some random crap here amongst the positive uplifting energy you both brought to the world through your amazing interview, but I heard this and it just spoke directly to my soul. And that's only 15 minutes in lol! I cannot wait to finish listening to the rest. Elizabeth, you are a special gift to the world, as are all of the talented people you review and interview. I take great pride in my fellow Washingtonians who make a difference as well. Seattle 90's music scene represent! (Yeah, I was in a garage band at 14 that went nowhere and stayed home from school crying when Kurt died) Anyway... Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I live in the Philadelphia area near where Lzzy and Arejay are from and there’s a good amount of hometown pride for this band. I have also met them once before at a local concert meet and greet event and the whole band could not have been any nicer. at this stage they are stars and the whole room is there to see them and still the humility and kindness they carry themselves with is amazing
Even though there is increasing awareness of depression and anxiety and their devastation effects, there is still a general stigma among many people that it's not a "real" thing and that as long as you are "consciously" aware of your actions/reactions to the world that you MUST have some kind of control over it, which is not necessarily true. I've suffered with mental illness most of my life and even when I reach out and try to connect to someone about this personal suffering (especially during a down cycle) a majority of people just dismiss me and don't want to be bothered with working through the hard issues. Depression get's "romanticized" in a way, I think, and people tend to think that they're just going to comfort you a little and that you'll magically be okay. But it's anything but that. Bad times are usually brutally ugly, nasty, and quite harsh. VERY few people are really willing to stand by you through that mess. So my heart goes out to anyone suffering.
Beth Hart has made several songs on the subject with one of her latest songs being War In My Mind. She has been mentioning her bi-polar disorder and former drug addiction for years.
A friend of mine, who is the guitarist from the band Zephyra and now Slashy Sue, is doing a small project to try to raise awareness of mental health, and erasing the stigma here in Sweden. Don't know the exact details of the project though, but I do hope I can be of some help to those of my friends that do have mental health issues.
Ok now you went and did it Elizabeth! We demand to hear you singing "Here's to Us". Ok not so much demand as beg, plead, wheedle, maybe pester... You get it we wanna hear it! Great interview, love you and Lzzy both!
I’ve never watched a two hour video on UA-cam. I watched this one. Lzzy is so down to earth, just awesome. Saw her over 10 years ago w Chevelle and again a couple years ago with In This Moment and NYD. Amazing voice!!! Can’t wait to see her again! 👍🏻
Hi Elizabeth, I loved this Tea Time Interview w/ Lzzy Hale. Just like your other interviews, I've learned so much more from this amazing artist. Thank you, Elizabeth!!! 💙
Thank you Kirby! You always being here for the channel, the music and always being a constant positive force for all of us is truly heartwarming. Thank you!!!
I'm new to this channel. But, what drew me in was the honest, expressive impression of the artists you review. Seeing you chat with Lzzy Hale for 2 hours was epic. I know (or knew) 0% about the technical aspects as they relate to singing. Hearing you both speak in all those ways, gives me 100% more appreciation for the craft & the art of it all. Keep up the great work & Thanks !!!
Lzzy has so many phenomenal collaborations. I've been a huge fan since the mid 2000s. Met them all at their merch table back then. She seems as genuine now as she did then. Can't wait to see them for a 5th time.
I agree. I love music. Instrumental areas get most of the breakdown and really in depth analysis. In fact I've seen multiple conversations with Lzzy focused mainly, if it only, on her (considerable) skill with a guitar. To listen to this conversation about their voices as physical instruments was very refreshing.
@@TheCharismaticVoice check out Devilskin from New Zealand. Halestorm and Devilskin toured NZ together. The Female vocalist in Devilskin is Amazing. She is the Auntie of the Drummer his Dad is Bass player in the band plus Nail Vincent on guitar. Jennie Skullander can hit the high notes and do the Gutteral growl in other songs.
I'm glad I found Elizabeth and her channel. I love the exquisite and flowery language she uses to describe the vocal instrument layered with technically precise anatomical details. I also love the wide range of music she delves into like Halestorm, which I would have never found otherwise. I've downloaded multiple songs lately that are solely from the introduction to them through Elizabeth. Keep it going.
got so excited when lzzy said they were going back out on tour that i paused the video to see if they were coming to uk and just booked tickets for the gig in Glasgow while in middle of watching this video :)
Saw Lzzy perform last night in Baltimore. FANTASTIC SHOW. She sounds just as great live and she really engages with the crowd. But so many times during the show, I had the thought, "Wow. Nice open vowels. Elizabeth would so be pointing this out."
I came to this channel because of the video posted on Lzzy's IG. And before I even got to this video. I watched 3 other videos from the channel and a video of Elizabeth's Opera singing. This channel is entertaining and informative. and too amazingly talented women from different genres just connecting on music and technique. I love it ❤️
LOL Lzzy "I talk a lot" Yes she does, but it was all awesome, loved hearing how Song of Women came about with the Hu, it's definitely one of my favourite songs, great story as well :) Thank you for this awesome interview Elizabeth :)
Lzzy is so wonderful and sweet. I have done meet and greets with her band when taking my grandsons to their concerts and they are always so nice. We are going to see them this Saturday and I wish there was a meet and greet, but it's still covid...so. I can't wait to see Halestorm and Evanessence this weekend. I am so happy I had The Charismatic Voice pop up in my feed, I am enjoying the videos.
I love your excitement as you listen to her describing her experience "when life happens." You're shaking in your chair, completely geeked out as she's talking. It's good to know it happens to a seasoned performer like you the way it does for the rest of us.
I’ve just caught up to this interview. I am floored by Elizabeth Zharoff’s being totally fan girled out here. It’s so cute! I’m sure she’s seen Lzzy Hale do interviews before and already knew how approachable she is and is not at all full of herself like so many who have attained her level of fame or even less.
SHE IS AMAZING, I COULD LISTEN TO HER RAMBLE ALL DAY!!! I AM NOW A BIGGER FAN OF HERS THAN I ALREADY WAS! GREAT INTERVIEW!!! YOU GUYS ARE LIKE SISTERS FROM ANOTHER MOTHER!!👍
This is my new favourite tea time, she went above and beyond to give thoughtful, intelligent, thoughtful, complete, pertinent and honest answers. I already live their music, her vocals and their skill but this just notched it up a little further. You both picked eachother's brains and the mutual respect & admiration was a beautiful thing to watch and hear.
I want to play D&D with both of these beautiful people. What a joy it is to watch them nerd out about singing. Wish I knew them better than just watching youtube. So cool
Woah, this is so exciting! Thanks Lzzy and Elizabeth for coming together on this, love you both. Halestorm is my all-time favourite so I can't wait to see what you guys discuss 😁🤘
I'm not convinced she's human at all. She's both gorgeous and somehow alien looking. Add an insane voice to it and yeah, she's from Venus or something.
When they were talking about how the voice evolves and changes. I kept thinking I wish fans would remember this as singers age, they aren't going to always sound as they did on their earlier albums So many people bash singers for their voices, yes some of them absolutely deserve it for the smoking/drugs/drinking, but not all (a high percentage IMO) of them deserve this. I'm glad they touched on this point. (I'm a fisherman not a singer lol, it just irritates me when people do this)
Incredible interview Elizabeth! Your interview style is so refreshing and it meshed perfectly with Lzzy's personality. You were so comfortable with each other it was as if you have been friends for years.
Hank Williams Sr. said it best. When asked what made him so successful he said sincerity. You listen to Hank's music and you can really tell why people loved him so much and why he is still beloved to this day. Everyone can relate to what he sang about.
I love Lzzy's range. "Love Bites (So Do I)" Was the first Halestorm song I heard. Next was "Familiar Taste Of Poison." "Freak Like Me," "I Get Off" "You Call Me a Bitch Like It's a Bad Thing" The covers "Slave To The Grind, Bad Romance, All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You, Shoot To Thrill, Gold Dust Woman, Ride The Lightning" and more. When A Dear High school friend passed away from his own hand, The guys and I played "Here's To Us" at the funeral. Amazing vocal talent!! Rock On LZZY!!!!
Izzy Hale is rock's greatest female vocalist, and one of the greatest living vocalists in music today. She has depth, volume, expansion, beyond technique she is the true synonym of rock n roll, organic...talented...true. Goddess of rock
I would love ❤️ you to interview others such as Floor, Dimash, Aurora, Angelina Jordan, Diana Ankudinova, and others. I understand you have to rely on scheduling an interview with those singers/vocalists but I would love hear what they have to say. Great interview Lzzy. Edit: I loved how you both nerded out on singering and vocals. Also your excitement when she mentioned singing with straws was great your eyes actually lite up.
I love Lzzy Hale. She's really talks with such candour, everytime. I have always admired her, since 10 years ago, great singer, and a real people's person, it's always a pleasure to listen to her talk. Elizabeth, you wouldn't know, but Halestorm was the last band to open for Heaven and Hell with Dio. She really looked up to him, you could also have asked her about that experience. But, anyway, an amazing interview. You are awesome. Thank you.
I’ve always (ok, for the past few years since, during COVID, WDHA-FM introduced me to Halestorm) appreciated Lzzy as an artist and a performer. But now I have such respect and admiration for her as a person. So humble and so generous with her time and her words and her advice. Thanks for the interview!
great vid, watching two vocalists have a discussion that seems to go off tangent here and there and not feel pressured or scripted in asking/answering questions. The excitement level on both sides is easily felt and Lzzy seems so relaxed doing this too
Wow I love that you do take the time to let the interview full room for an answer or the story to be told. That's why your interviews feel so authentic. THX
This is a really fun and insightful chat! Admittedly, I have only a casual interest in Halestorm, but Lzzy is definitely an impressive singer. It's great to learn more about her and especially her approach and technique. The part about breathing is really helpful; speaking of mental health, I've learned from my therapist about the benefit of diaphragmatic breathing. I hadn't thought of Lzzy doing a collab with The Darkness, and now I want it to happen!
Okay, because of this interview I have discovered... THE HU!!! Their cover of Sad But True blew me away!! And "Song of Women" is brilliant! Come on, how can it not me, their music and singing and, LZZY!!
It is so cool to hear two great singers talk about music and singing. Enjoy your youth, but take care of your health. Good health habits will ease you in old age. Your life will change, but it's just a different kind of beauty. Cherish the moments, good and bad and never say die.
I've had the chance to interact with Lizzy on Twitter a few times and to take the time out to answer a question from a random fan like me is just amazing. She is the best.
Just saw Lzzy perform at Download last week and her voice is impressive. James Hetfield even commented on being on the stage with the great singers. Like, "why am I on the stage with the great singers". Lovely to see Elizabeth's excitement over straws and the harmonica!
This is amazing, my very first thought when you watched Lzzy the first time was, "you two should talk, exchange notes!" And here we are, thank you so much!
OMG, Elizabeth!!! I loved your reactions and commentary the first time you heard Lizzy and this just blew me away. I've been a HUGE fan for years, but to see her just being a normal, nerdy person makes her feel so much more real to me. Thank you so much for making this happen!!!
Great interview, and amazing restraint waiting for the right moment to pull out your straw case :) Listen to Lzzy! We NEED an Ann Wilson/Heart reaction video! So many good ones, Crazy On You or Mistral Wind would be a good start.
@@malintent6962 Ann has called it one of her favorites, too! I wish we had a recording of it at Texxas Jam 1978...107 degrees in the stadium, and the wind started just as Heart started playing Mistral. I've heard it only once but it was taken down due to copyright issues.
Ooo sorry, but I just had a cool idea.. Talking about Collaborations and all that. It would be awesome for Lzzy Hale/Halestorm to do a Collab. with Elizabeth (Charismatic Voice) doing a "Nightwish" Floor Jensen type Opera Rock song.... That might sound crazy & not quite possible but I think that would work very well together.... somehow.
Elizabeth, what an awesome interview! Absolutely loved it. And I was getting a little teary-eyed a couple times from realizing how incredible both of you are.
Just wanted to jump in and say that Lzzy has been one of my favorites for a very long time. Halestorm is the only band I've been to a concert for. Glad to see you interviewing her!
Enjoyed this very much. No matter the genre, the goal is to emote through music, which in turn creates emotions in others. You and Lzzy both prove that regardless of performance persona, we're all just music nerds/geeks. Love it!
Holy hot hell, I can't believe what I just saw. 2 beautiful people sharing an incredible moment with all us freaks. I am looking forward to more of Lzzy and Elizabeth's adventures! #stillhighfromthis
Been waiting all week to have some undisturbed quiet time to watch this. EXCITED!!!! Loved the interview with Myles Kennedy. Thank-you Elizabeth 🙏🏻 🤘🏼 2 Hours later: W❤️W! Amazing 🤩 Thanks to you both for your generosity and for being so genuine. I loved every second!
We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com

How good is it when two awesome people connect with zero ego? 🤘🏻🙏
UA-camr? Nope, Elizabeth is a goddess in the opera world. You should really check her out and be thankful we mere mortals have her insight here ;)
@@clarenceoveur9497 Regardless of what else she does, she also makes UA-cam videos. Roger?, Roger.
@@04m6gto yep, but in music circles she is well known, and respected, as a vocalist not because of her youtube.
@@S04pDr0p Yes, I know. I get it. That's why she is my favorite music reactor. However, she's not a big interviewer or media personality, hence my comment.

Every interview and video I've seen with Lzzy makes me think she's a generously nice and kind person. Really like her.
I met her and can confirm this
@@Joemama55122 same! Every time I've met her she's lovely and takes the time to talk
No for real. There was this one instance where I was talking to her right outside of her tour bus. It was like 50 degrees and spitting rain. Her "security guard" type person was all "Lzzy, we got to get going." Lzzy literally shooed him away and stayed and talked with us. It was awesome. She is literally the most down to earth famous person I've ever heard of.

I am not even half way through...this is the one of the best conversations I have witnessed. It isn't an interview. Two glorious people...talking...
Elizabeth is literally QUIVVERING in her seat when Lizzy mentions the straws 🤣 her excitement is PALPABLE
I mean. YAAAAAS! Someone else that uses straws!
@@TheCharismaticVoice Of course I'm far from being an expert but I always thought the straw thing was a normal tool of speech therapy.

Lzzy did a quick livestream on instagram a few weeks ago. Said she had a blast doing this right before they started touring hard.
Awwww! That's so super sweet! Lzzy is an absolute gem. Truly.
Two of the most positive, passionate, empowering, expressive and beautiful women on the planet. I can’t sing for shit, would ordinarily have no interest the technicalities of singing (I just like listening) but Elizabeth’s excitement drags you in and I can’t help but be enthralled while learning stuff.

I'm glad you got to experience the warmth and charisma that is Lzzy Hale. She makes everyone feel like she's one of your oldest best friends.
Amazing to learn how much effort lzzy puts into her craft to give us her fans the best experience.
This was the best interview I have ever seen. It was nerdy, magical. beautiful.loving,etc...This made me very happy. The chemistry between you two was amazing. and wonderful. Thank you Elizabeth.

I love hearing Rockers discussing their trials and how they overcame. The industry creates an image where our heroes and Icons are indestructable, especially in the sex and drugs of Rock-n-Roll. In being transparent on her platform people lift their horns with a hero. That's very empowering. You may never wail like these vocalists but there may be more important ways to identify with them in life, health and positivity.
Lzzy Hale is the best! Love her vocals...Lzzy and her brother were also so sweet when we meet them in Pensacola. Great live!
26:40 The timestamp where Lzzy talks about straws, and Elizabeth reaches maximum excitement levels.
Thanks for the number marker
Maximum Elizabeth geek out moment.
Elizabeth is such a vocal nerd! That's why we love her!
I got excited when I saw you got an interview with Lzzy and then was like HOLY CRAP it's 2 HOURS and then the first thing Lzzy does is thank YOU for the interview. Unreal that someone so huge and talented is also an amazing person. My respect and love of Lzzy just went up like a million fold!
Your face during this entire interview was literally the best!! When she was talking about "Break in" I thought you might explode. I love your channel... everything is gold
Honestly, one of the best interviews I've seen her do... she seemed more open and relaxed than in other interviews
I really appreciate hearing Lzzy's description of "singing therapy." I had no idea this was a concept! The tragedy I'm going through right now, specifically involving spousal MENTAL HEALTH issues, has left me hopeless and hollowed out. Strangely enough, I currently just have anxiety attacks when my emotional limits are reached rather than release through crying. For whatever reason I can't shed the emotional distress that way. It never used to be like this, and most times I can only sleep after absolute exhaustion takes over and the dang anxiety attack is still in full swing when I awaken. It is excruciating. However, it is ironically through my recent discovery and fascination with these videos that I have started singing along with some of my favorite songs again, and I realized the shower/car singing karaoke nerd that I have always been was lost along the way as well. The connection I've made here, getting to the point, is that once I'm singing, a flood of tears and sobbing begin!! The result is this transcendent relief from all of the pain, confusion and heartache that comes from violence and deep betrayal. Needless to say, I needed this, at this very moment in time, more than anyone could know. I don't mean to unpack some random crap here amongst the positive uplifting energy you both brought to the world through your amazing interview, but I heard this and it just spoke directly to my soul. And that's only 15 minutes in lol! I cannot wait to finish listening to the rest.
Elizabeth, you are a special gift to the world, as are all of the talented people you review and interview. I take great pride in my fellow Washingtonians who make a difference as well. Seattle 90's music scene represent! (Yeah, I was in a garage band at 14 that went nowhere and stayed home from school crying when Kurt died) Anyway...
Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!
I live in the Philadelphia area near where Lzzy and Arejay are from and there’s a good amount of hometown pride for this band. I have also met them once before at a local concert meet and greet event and the whole band could not have been any nicer. at this stage they are stars and the whole room is there to see them and still the humility and kindness they carry themselves with is amazing
Even though there is increasing awareness of depression and anxiety and their devastation effects, there is still a general stigma among many people that it's not a "real" thing and that as long as you are "consciously" aware of your actions/reactions to the world that you MUST have some kind of control over it, which is not necessarily true. I've suffered with mental illness most of my life and even when I reach out and try to connect to someone about this personal suffering (especially during a down cycle) a majority of people just dismiss me and don't want to be bothered with working through the hard issues. Depression get's "romanticized" in a way, I think, and people tend to think that they're just going to comfort you a little and that you'll magically be okay. But it's anything but that. Bad times are usually brutally ugly, nasty, and quite harsh. VERY few people are really willing to stand by you through that mess. So my heart goes out to anyone suffering.
John, much love. I feel ya.
Beth Hart has made several songs on the subject with one of her latest songs being War In My Mind. She has been mentioning her bi-polar disorder and former drug addiction for years.
A friend of mine, who is the guitarist from the band Zephyra and now Slashy Sue, is doing a small project to try to raise awareness of mental health, and erasing the stigma here in Sweden. Don't know the exact details of the project though, but I do hope I can be of some help to those of my friends that do have mental health issues.
@@GreyMatterStew Thank you very much!
Elizabeth, you're gonna go crazy at the Halestorm gig. They're soooo amazing live, and all real. Don't miss it!
That was great. Two accomplished artists who are fan girling on each other and truly showing admiration. Thank you for the great interview.
Ok now you went and did it Elizabeth! We demand to hear you singing "Here's to Us". Ok not so much demand as beg, plead, wheedle, maybe pester... You get it we wanna hear it! Great interview, love you and Lzzy both!
This was so delightful, inspiring, educational, and so ******g wholesome. To both Elizabeth and Lzzy, y’all are too much awesome. Thanks for this!
I’ve never watched a two hour video on UA-cam. I watched this one. Lzzy is so down to earth, just awesome. Saw her over 10 years ago w Chevelle and again a couple years ago with In This Moment and NYD. Amazing voice!!! Can’t wait to see her again! 👍🏻
Hearing these two lovely ladies geek out about vocals, Im amazing at the technicality about it. Im loving this!!!!! 💜💜💜
Hi Elizabeth, I loved this Tea Time Interview w/ Lzzy Hale. Just like your other interviews, I've learned so much more from this amazing artist. Thank you, Elizabeth!!! 💙
Thank you Kirby! You always being here for the channel, the music and always being a constant positive force for all of us is truly heartwarming. Thank you!!!
I'm new to this channel. But, what drew me in was the honest, expressive impression of the artists you review. Seeing you chat with Lzzy Hale for 2 hours was epic. I know (or knew) 0% about the technical aspects as they relate to singing. Hearing you both speak in all those ways, gives me 100% more appreciation for the craft & the art of it all. Keep up the great work & Thanks !!!
Lzzy has so many phenomenal collaborations. I've been a huge fan since the mid 2000s. Met them all at their merch table back then. She seems as genuine now as she did then. Can't wait to see them for a 5th time.
I am so happy.
I been such a fan of Lzzy for so long but most of the interviews I've seen she doesn't go into detail about her singing.
Well. There's always a first. ;-)
I agree. I love music. Instrumental areas get most of the breakdown and really in depth analysis. In fact I've seen multiple conversations with Lzzy focused mainly, if it only, on her (considerable) skill with a guitar. To listen to this conversation about their voices as physical instruments was very refreshing.
@@TheCharismaticVoice check out Devilskin from New Zealand. Halestorm and Devilskin toured NZ together. The Female vocalist in Devilskin is Amazing. She is the Auntie of the Drummer his Dad is Bass player in the band plus Nail Vincent on guitar. Jennie Skullander can hit the high notes and do the Gutteral growl in other songs.
I'm glad I found Elizabeth and her channel. I love the exquisite and flowery language she uses to describe the vocal instrument layered with technically precise anatomical details. I also love the wide range of music she delves into like Halestorm, which I would have never found otherwise. I've downloaded multiple songs lately that are solely from the introduction to them through Elizabeth. Keep it going.
I was literally exploding the entire time listening to Lzzy talk about Amy. This entire interview was so nerdy and wholesome, and I loved it.
their friendship is everything ❤️
No way! You've got to interview my favorite lead singer? I'm so excited! Hopefully this also means even more Halestorm reactions in the future! :D
got so excited when lzzy said they were going back out on tour that i paused the video to see if they were coming to uk and just booked tickets for the gig in Glasgow while in middle of watching this video :)
Saw Lzzy perform last night in Baltimore. FANTASTIC SHOW. She sounds just as great live and she really engages with the crowd. But so many times during the show, I had the thought, "Wow. Nice open vowels. Elizabeth would so be pointing this out."
I came to this channel because of the video posted on Lzzy's IG. And before I even got to this video. I watched 3 other videos from the channel and a video of Elizabeth's Opera singing. This channel is entertaining and informative. and too amazingly talented women from different genres just connecting on music and technique. I love it ❤️
LOL Lzzy "I talk a lot" Yes she does, but it was all awesome, loved hearing how Song of Women came about with the Hu, it's definitely one of my favourite songs, great story as well :) Thank you for this awesome interview Elizabeth :)
Lzzy is so wonderful and sweet. I have done meet and greets with her band when taking my grandsons to their concerts and they are always so nice. We are going to see them this Saturday and I wish there was a meet and greet, but it's still covid...so. I can't wait to see Halestorm and Evanessence this weekend. I am so happy I had The Charismatic Voice pop up in my feed, I am enjoying the videos.
I love your excitement as you listen to her describing her experience "when life happens." You're shaking in your chair, completely geeked out as she's talking. It's good to know it happens to a seasoned performer like you the way it does for the rest of us.
Lzzy Hale is such a rock goddess....
and yet seems like the girl next door. Love her! Thanks Elizabeth, great interview....you rock!! 🤘
I’ve just caught up to this interview. I am floored by Elizabeth Zharoff’s being totally fan girled out here. It’s so cute! I’m sure she’s seen Lzzy Hale do interviews before and already knew how approachable she is and is not at all full of herself like so many who have attained her level of fame or even less.
SHE IS AMAZING, I COULD LISTEN TO HER RAMBLE ALL DAY!!! I AM NOW A BIGGER FAN OF HERS THAN I ALREADY WAS! GREAT INTERVIEW!!! YOU GUYS ARE LIKE SISTERS FROM ANOTHER MOTHER!!👍
This is my new favourite tea time, she went above and beyond to give thoughtful, intelligent, thoughtful, complete, pertinent and honest answers. I already live their music, her vocals and their skill but this just notched it up a little further.
You both picked eachother's brains and the mutual respect & admiration was a beautiful thing to watch and hear.
I want to play D&D with both of these beautiful people. What a joy it is to watch them nerd out about singing. Wish I knew them better than just watching youtube. So cool
Woah, this is so exciting! Thanks Lzzy and Elizabeth for coming together on this, love you both. Halestorm is my all-time favourite so I can't wait to see what you guys discuss 😁🤘
Further evidence that Lzzy Hale really is THE human.
I stil think she's too good to be human...
Loo
I'm not convinced she's human at all. She's both gorgeous and somehow alien looking. Add an insane voice to it and yeah, she's from Venus or something.
Hi! South African here. Rooibos Tea (Pronounced: Roy - bors) meaning Red Bush Tea in Afrikaans.
But it is not tea right? When I drink it the package says rooibos not rooibos thee.
@@maanvis81 Correct. It is not from the same plant as normal tea-leaves come from.
When they were talking about how the voice evolves and changes. I kept thinking I wish fans would remember this as singers age, they aren't going to always sound as they did on their earlier albums So many people bash singers for their voices, yes some of them absolutely deserve it for the smoking/drugs/drinking, but not all (a high percentage IMO) of them deserve this.
I'm glad they touched on this point. (I'm a fisherman not a singer lol, it just irritates me when people do this)
Incredible interview Elizabeth! Your interview style is so refreshing and it meshed perfectly with Lzzy's personality. You were so comfortable with each other it was as if you have been friends for years.
Hank Williams Sr. said it best. When asked what made him so successful he said sincerity. You
listen to Hank's music and you can really tell why people loved him so much and why he is still
beloved to this day. Everyone can relate to what he sang about.
I love how Lzzy brought up Elizabeth's nerdiness. That's one of the best things about her.
I love Lzzy's range. "Love Bites (So Do I)" Was the first Halestorm song I heard. Next was "Familiar Taste Of Poison." "Freak Like Me," "I Get Off" "You Call Me a Bitch Like It's a Bad Thing" The covers "Slave To The Grind, Bad Romance, All I Want To Do Is Make Love To You, Shoot To Thrill, Gold Dust Woman, Ride The Lightning" and more. When A Dear High school friend passed away from his own hand, The guys and I played "Here's To Us" at the funeral. Amazing vocal talent!! Rock On LZZY!!!!
Izzy Hale is rock's greatest female vocalist, and one of the greatest living vocalists in music today.
She has depth, volume, expansion, beyond technique she is the true synonym of rock n roll, organic...talented...true. Goddess of rock
I would love ❤️ you to interview others such as Floor, Dimash, Aurora, Angelina Jordan, Diana Ankudinova, and others. I understand you have to rely on scheduling an interview with those singers/vocalists but I would love hear what they have to say.
Great interview Lzzy.
Edit: I loved how you both nerded out on singering and vocals. Also your excitement when she mentioned singing with straws was great your eyes actually lite up.
I love Lzzy Hale. She's really talks with such candour, everytime. I have always admired her, since 10 years ago, great singer, and a real people's person, it's always a pleasure to listen to her talk. Elizabeth, you wouldn't know, but Halestorm was the last band to open for Heaven and Hell with Dio. She really looked up to him, you could also have asked her about that experience. But, anyway, an amazing interview. You are awesome. Thank you.
Love her very HUMBLE class act
Lzzy Hale is such a golden human being. I cant wait to see Halestorm in November!
I’ve always (ok, for the past few years since, during COVID, WDHA-FM introduced me to Halestorm) appreciated Lzzy as an artist and a performer. But now I have such respect and admiration for her as a person. So humble and so generous with her time and her words and her advice. Thanks for the interview!
great vid, watching two vocalists have a discussion that seems to go off tangent here and there and not feel pressured or scripted in asking/answering questions. The excitement level on both sides is easily felt and Lzzy seems so relaxed doing this too
Hi Lzzy! so looking forward to more compilations from you and Amy Lee!
Wow I love that you do take the time to let the interview full room for an answer or the story to be told. That's why your interviews feel so authentic. THX
This is a really fun and insightful chat! Admittedly, I have only a casual interest in Halestorm, but Lzzy is definitely an impressive singer. It's great to learn more about her and especially her approach and technique. The part about breathing is really helpful; speaking of mental health, I've learned from my therapist about the benefit of diaphragmatic breathing.
I hadn't thought of Lzzy doing a collab with The Darkness, and now I want it to happen!
I heard her in the radio late at night, it was something random from their first few albums. I fell in love with her voice, she is insanely talented
Okay, because of this interview I have discovered... THE HU!!! Their cover of Sad But True blew me away!! And "Song of Women" is brilliant! Come on, how can it not me, their music and singing and, LZZY!!
I love the Mongolian metal of The Hu....great band.
This series is amazing, and Lzzy is so genuine and awesome to give us 2 hours of this candid energy.
A beautiful human being like Lzzy and an angel like Elizabeth, this interview is magic 💘💪🏻🙏🏻⚡️🥰
It is so cool to hear two great singers talk about music and singing. Enjoy your youth, but take care of your health. Good health habits will ease you in old age. Your life will change, but it's just a different kind of beauty. Cherish the moments, good and bad and never say die.
I've had the chance to interact with Lizzy on Twitter a few times and to take the time out to answer a question from a random fan like me is just amazing. She is the best.
Just saw Lzzy perform at Download last week and her voice is impressive. James Hetfield even commented on being on the stage with the great singers. Like, "why am I on the stage with the great singers". Lovely to see Elizabeth's excitement over straws and the harmonica!
My favorite vocalists are:
Freddie Mercury (the GREATEST singer and rockstar in history)
James Hetfield
Lzzy Hale
Layne Staley
Scott Weiland
This is amazing, my very first thought when you watched Lzzy the first time was, "you two should talk, exchange notes!" And here we are, thank you so much!
OMG, Elizabeth!!! I loved your reactions and commentary the first time you heard Lizzy and this just blew me away. I've been a HUGE fan for years, but to see her just being a normal, nerdy person makes her feel so much more real to me. Thank you so much for making this happen!!!
Great interview, and amazing restraint waiting for the right moment to pull out your straw case :)
Listen to Lzzy! We NEED an Ann Wilson/Heart reaction video! So many good ones, Crazy On You or Mistral Wind would be a good start.
Mistral Wind is my favorite Heart song and it's cool that you mentioned it. Most people ever have never heard it or forgotten it. It rocks.
@@malintent6962 Ann has called it one of her favorites, too! I wish we had a recording of it at Texxas Jam 1978...107 degrees in the stadium, and the wind started just as Heart started playing Mistral. I've heard it only once but it was taken down due to copyright issues.
Ooo sorry, but I just had a cool idea.. Talking about Collaborations and all that. It would be awesome for Lzzy Hale/Halestorm to do a Collab. with Elizabeth (Charismatic Voice) doing a "Nightwish" Floor Jensen type Opera Rock song.... That might sound crazy & not quite possible but I think that would work very well together.... somehow.
Elizabeth, what an awesome interview! Absolutely loved it. And I was getting a little teary-eyed a couple times from realizing how incredible both of you are.
Just wanted to jump in and say that Lzzy has been one of my favorites for a very long time. Halestorm is the only band I've been to a concert for. Glad to see you interviewing her!
Great interview. Very fun. I gotta check out more of Halestorm's music, as I really only know their radio hits.
Enjoyed this very much. No matter the genre, the goal is to emote through music, which in turn creates emotions in others. You and Lzzy both prove that regardless of performance persona, we're all just music nerds/geeks. Love it!
by the way didn't Floor Jansen say once that she would love to sing with Lzzy? I kinda remember sth there...
Yes! Covid ruined the plans.
Holy hot hell, I can't believe what I just saw. 2 beautiful people sharing an incredible moment with all us freaks. I am looking forward to more of Lzzy and Elizabeth's adventures! #stillhighfromthis
Awesome! Lzzy is one of my absolute favourite female singers, therefore I'm so happy she appears in this major way on our fave channel.
this is freaking amazing
I still really think we need a tea time with David Draiman!
Been waiting all week to have some undisturbed quiet time to watch this. EXCITED!!!! Loved the interview with Myles Kennedy. Thank-you Elizabeth 🙏🏻 🤘🏼
2 Hours later: W❤️W! Amazing 🤩 Thanks to you both for your generosity and for being so genuine. I loved every second!
