    ABOUT…
    I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
    Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

      and somehow i lost sight of him because i couldnt get warm with the strapping young lad and ocean machine stuff not that it was bad but i dont liked the sound at all it was so washy so it was hard to follow the whole stuff that was going on.
      maybe time to check his latest stuff again.

      @@hectorglobal2922 Venues are great. But, they're hardly a measuring stick for all-time recognition. And, okay, cool. Some youtubers have noticed him. But what we don't see is more recognition for his work, higher placements on festivals, more of a push or buzz during his music is dropping. etc. And, for all that he gets right now, it's not proportional to the talent he has. One of the best guitarists going. With a vocal range that most other metal singers can dream of. He has more, and does more than a lot of other talents out there. But he's not talked about as much. That's my point. That's him being underrated.

    No need to be ashamed of some tears while listening to Devin. I cried a ton to his epic stuff. But just like he´s always smiling on stage, its never tears of sadness, its always positive. Just delve and dive into emotions and get overwhelmed by the "epicness".
    And yes, hopefully you have a look at his older stuff, SYL, Ocean Machine or the album Steve Vai let him do the vocals.

  • @xneurianx

    The amazing thing about Devin as a musician is how much he understands TONE as well as melody, harmony and structure. His grasp of the quality of sound he is producing is incredible.

    Devin makes those faces and provokes so much emotion through his music because he suffers from things most people won't have to understand, sees the world differently and tells all who are listening. I'm diagnosed High Functioning Autistic and have been a HUGE fan of SYL and DT since I was a teenager in the 90's because his journey and suffering through music spoke to me more than others who yelled MUCH louder. Ma'am, your reaction to Devin was how anyone who has ears and a soul should react. ;) This was your first video I've had the pleasure of watching and the fact that you are willing to expose yourself to new music is beautiful, there are others like Devin but none LIKE DEVIN.

Devin never went back, and has been singing the same for like 20 years since. He's just a wonderful freak of nature.

I'd love to see you react to HIM, Ville Valo's vocal range is unbelievable, he can hit some of the lowest notes I've ever heard and flip to high notes without missing a beat. I think you'd appreciate the nuances in his voice as well. I'd recommend looking up Wicked Game live - Versetile Doom live at the Orpheum Theatre. or The Funeral of Hearts live, also from the Versetile Doom show.

      @@SpykeZ0129 Me too man. They were such a crucial aspect of the Dimmu sound. Orchestras and Choirs are still not able to provide the intense goosebumps that Vortex and Mustic gave me. The band hasn't been the same since, and never will be. I'm so thankful that I got to see Dimmu live when those two were still in the band.

    Awesome analysis of his technique. What’s so amazing is that he’s done this for several decades. I remember when he was with Steve Vai waaay back and had already developed this incredible versatility in his voice.

    I reacted the same way you did around 10:13! Instantly, I was in tears.
    My only explanation is that up until that point, we only heard those power chords sung in the lower octave, so when he jumped the octave....! And with the voice and the scream and the power and the passion and the everything about him really. I felt like I was going to literally puke my heart out of my body.

      It's the true passion he has. It comes through in his playing, his singing, and the entire performance. Impossible to deny that power and beauty!

    God I love you woman, you're so articulate in what you hear it's fantastic to see you appreciate something so far from your comfort zone on his ability alone. We need more people like you in the world RVA.

    Hearing this song for the first time, regardless of it being a live version or recorded, is going to hit home hard. Its a brilliant song.

    Thank you for reacting to that. Loved seeing how you felt and reacted when he hit those high screams. He definitely knows how to emote through his music and vocals. Keep up the good work! :)

    5:21 I absolutely love how in your videos you will reach over to pause the clip and then something happens that makes you hold off for a moment. Love your reactions to these incredible songs. Glad I found your channel.
