I've heard this song hundreds of times and I legit had no idea that many of the higher parts are Daron and not Serj (1:06 for instance). This track isolation also really demonstrates how amazingly well their voices blended and why the combination of incredibly talented band members had SOAD churning out so many magical tunes.
@@vicariouschism86 honestly he's reasonably-rated imo. He adds a lot to the band, and gets a lot of respect from drummers and the band itself. Shavo on the other hand doesn't get talked about too much, as far as I know.
As much of a meme as this is, I believe it could help some musicians a lot? Like if you're a guitarist you can play along with this and if you're a vocal, you can hear what notes Serj is singing perfectly
Chop Suey is so much groovier than I ever realized, and Serjs voice is so much softer than I ever thought it could be, and is some parts he is almost...talking? He's barely singing in those parts, you don't notice that in the finished cut, it's just part of the song. But the last chorus is still super emotional! Cool vid, I hope this becomes the new big thing.
The lack of Daron's singing is what's making some parts of Serj's vocals sound a bit flatter than you're used to. Serj actually sings the harmony part for the chorus so that bit sounds extra weird without Daron providing melody.
Honestly, everyone knows this song is a masterpiece but the part starting at 2:47 gives me goosebumbs... Just out of this world how Serj is singing.... 🖤
@@themandalorian7352 I love serj singing both him and darron hope I spelled his name right I’m terrible at names both have very unique voices that are really good when singing together
@@TheChucknoxus I see what you mean but I think from the perspective that a good drummer is more about getting the job done musically, appropriately, and reliably rather than always super technical then I think he’s one of the greatest
So true, sometimes I wonder if the drummer has anyone in the monitors or just knows his part so well he's like "fuck it, just gimme some main voices and my drums I'll be good. " Also usually the drummer can hear the electric guitar players amp from across the stage because they're always turning up to fucking 11 for that "perfect sound".
2:26 on are my favorite vocal chops ever written. Since I was a kid I loved trying to belt it while waving my hands like an opera singer. Close second is "so you think you can stone me and spit in my eye"
Son: Dad why is my sister's name is rose Dad: Because your mom loves roses Son: Oh thank you dad Dad: No problem System of a down - no bass, no guitar.
Indeed, I appreciate how hard he can go. He never had to use drum patterns as crazy, he could have had way simpler ones that fit the bare requirements.
Wow, I didn't realise so many people weren't able to apreciate Serj's vocals before this video... I've always thought his voice and Daron's are what really makes this group special and sets them apart from the rest
same here! I've always loved singing and SOAD's songs were always amazing because of actually getting to do all those intricacies where with alot of other rock bands I kind of just added that in when singing along lol

Oh the half of this band that's fucking nuts. John is the most consistent member of this band and his drumming is so good that Serj and Daron both had him support their solo breakouts.

And while I think Daron is a stronger songwriter, I don't actually think he's a stronger guitarist. That's subjective as hell, however.
