Early Beyonce performances will always make me giggle. She did not care about a song's flow at all. Just wanted you to know she could sing! I like how you showed her improvement as well as Christina's with the later clips.
I think that's what happened with a lot of the artists of the 2000s like Beyonce, and especially Christina Aguilera. When they debuted, they wanted to show off that they can saaang. But they ended up overfrying a simple classic tune like a Christmas carol with unnecessary windy and over the top melismas, ultimately ruining the melody, hence the minus points in musicality. It's only human. Glad to see they improved and found the good balance between their individual style and maintaining the song's melody. On the other hand, those from the 80s and 90s like Whitney, Celine, and Mariah, despite they were also blamed for oversinging, their riffs and runs sound rather modest compared to how all these singers now like to overbelt it and do crazy unnecessary vocal acrobatics. I guess the 90s was the era where less is more.
I wish we could just get some good ones he shows the same two runs every time he showcases it 💀 everyone knows silent night was a lot and everyone now’s crazy in love
Mariah’s musicality is always on point. Her runs while complex always make sense and fit in the song. Christina definitely got better and more control with time.
I agree Christina got more in control and learned to be one with music as opposed to what she does before. You know back then she used to place runs all over one song. Christina and Beyonce had this syndrome back in the day and they tend to show off too much vocally that it doesn't make sense anymore. Now they both became better. In Mariah's case, she's always excellent no doubt.
@@luancosta3153 Just the fact that anyone could have reached her skill level at least once in a lifetime is monumental... you're just salty but it's bad for your blood-pressure so I'm okay with it.
Kyungsoo is SO underrated outside their fandom it's crazy. People tend to forget how good he is and only seem to remember Chen/Baekhyun when Kyungsoo is a literal jem
that low ass run from D.O. is so impressive to me because as a male vocalist i struggle so much with agility in my lower register and he sounded SO quick
Mariah, even when not in her prime, still got that tasty, tasty run. As i follow her longer, i agree with you that she is, first and foremost, an artist more than she is a performer. She's more volatile when it comes to live performance due to her stress, rest, health, and any other performance compromising element, but I can see how she never lost that passion about music itself.
Mariah, Beyonce, Jojo, and Tori Kelly I think these 4 definitely master the art of tasteful vocal runs just because you can do it doesn't mean you have to always do it, and these 4 really gave some tasteful runs. Beyonce's Crazy in Love Runs definitely solidified her ability to run. Mariah's Lead the Way is still untouchable
Thank you for including Do Kyungsoo. His vocals go absolutely crazy and anyone who hasn’t heard of him- please listen to his solo work and/or his work with EXO. He’s incredible!
Mariah's vocal agility when it comes to runs is in her own separate category... she's literally god-level. How she is able to execute great vocal runs in multiple registers is simply mind-boggling.
And to think that the person chose two of the most simple runs Kyungsoo did live. He has more complex,fast and impactful runs in my opinion. But it only shows how incredible he is
Christina was musical, but overdoing it. It's crazy how good she sounds when she holds back. For some of the runs in this video, it's easy to guess when they're improvised. But when you're Bey, Whitney or MC I guess it's harder to know when it's not.
I love Christina but dang, she doesn’t have to overdo all the time. We know she can sing. Maybe back then she had something to prove? She just keeps going and going, a 3 minute song becomes twice as long.
Thank you for including D.O. too. He has bunch of live performences released recently. Please check them out too. ( D.O. in lee mujin Service (he sings 4-5 songs). Another one (Rewrite the stars cover with AKMU Sohyun). And (it's live)
You've made this kind of videos for vocal runs and belts, but perhaps a bad and good comparison video of head voice/falsetto execution in pop music would be great? Imo that would be especially difficult to distinguish whether it's strained, alright, or perfect! Love your videos btw! ❤
Being honest I don’t know what the hell happened with Mariah runs in 2013/2014 because she was FAST! like insanely fast! She almost sounds robotic and autotuned because the speed. It’s unbelievable
9:14 In 2013, Mariah's vocal cords hacked ai. Her musicality is the human part; with that musicality, it really adds up that her childhood classmate said that she sounds like there are instruments and music playing behind her, when she sings a capella. 🎶🐦👸 2:02 Chloe's attempt sounded good, then I heard 2:15 Tori's great attempt. Tori keeps blowing our minds 2:27 🤯 2:53 John Legend caught me by surprise with that riff, especially with the heaviness of his voice. He's deserves more recognition in the vocal community 👏 4:16 & 7:16 Beyonce & Christina Aguilera get the awards for most improved! They had a feud with Musi Calité back then. 👩🎓👩🎓 5:12 Faouzia is definitely one to keep an eye on because she does it so effortlessly and with great musicality plus with a unique approach. 🥰 5:28 The fact that FLO did harmonies on that complex riff is astounding. Jazmine Sullivan gets major props for constructing and executing these great riffs though! 👍👍👍 7:04 Love how you gave Aretha her own category *Soul* 👑 8:18 Whitney had the golden voice. A velvety, warm and relatively large voice yet quite agile with impressive musicality. 💛 8:56 For someone as skilled as Avery with riffs and runs, it's baffling that the musicality mostly eludes him. 😯 He reminds me of Beyonce and Christina, when they were younger.
I love that John Legend riff! So slick and classy plus the quality of his voice>>> FLO girls left me speechless with this one! Of course, Aretha needed her OWN category! I agree with everything above, I'm always so glad to see you in the comments! much love

Great video, just always hoping we see more . . . of people we don't expect to see? The UK and Indie-pop girls don't get enough love. Florence , Kimbra and LP have certainly given us some runs over the years.
Jojo, Tori, and Faouzia are my favorites right now. ❤ Im so glad this list included guys. 👍🏾 And needless to say, Whitney's voice is straight from God. Sweet angel vocals.❤
Right because hearing her do that first run in the performance threwwww me. Like it was so perfect and such an interesting way to fill that space without overdoing it. That entire HBO special has so many gems and some of her best performances to date. @@charltonvister1513
have you ever checked out stacey ryan's vocal runs? she's got some wild ones in her songs like 'fall in love alone' and 'over tonight'. highly recommend.
Hello there! @Ain't No Other Fan. Have you listened to Kyungsoo R&B collab song Tell Me What is Love full studio version? I recommend it it's just have the best runs. Also Black Pearl, Paradise, among others. Kyungsoo runs in general are amazing and he has some great ones hidden in EXO's songs, R&B covers he did in the past and Tell Me What is Love tha tis just divine.
One clip of Sabrina Carpenter? I have to admit, I was in shock, that she was even included yes. But really? that's it 😭she has so many other songs that uses runs, not just her pop hit that everyone is apparently sick of hearing 🥺 BUT I am happy to see that you think her precision, pitch and musicality are more than just "decent"
I wish you would put the name of the artist on the screen when they are singing. I don't know who some of them are. Some, like Kelly Clarkson are recognizable even from a distance with grainy footage, but many of the others i dont recognize right away or at all
Whitney, Aretha and Mariah are far better than all the others can ever be! Even in their best days they don't come anywhere near the 3 of them and several other great singers not shown in this video
Yeah, when Tori does a run you know it’s gonna be perfection. Always perfect pitch and precision, flows like water
Love her, shes so underrated. Also, is it just me or has she been looking more and more melanated 👀
@@karl2624well she’s part black so… yeah

Mariah, Beyonce, Jojo, and Tori Kelly
I think these 4 definitely master the art of tasteful vocal runs
just because you can do it doesn't mean you have to always do it, and these 4 really gave some tasteful runs.
Beyonce's Crazy in Love Runs definitely solidified her ability to run.
Mariah's Lead the Way is still untouchable
Morissette, Katrina, Kyla
@@atolm1Kyla, Kat and Elaine Duran. Mori is decent, she has moments but is not consistent.
Faouzia is so underrated
also jasmine sullivan
Tori’s musicality is one of my favorites. It’s exactly how I expect a musician to sing, she sounds just like her guitar
The moment I saw vocal runs mariah carey and tori kelly came to mind immediately
Mariah is so talented and musical, all the vocalists in this video have talked about her
Thank you for including Do Kyungsoo. His vocals go absolutely crazy and anyone who hasn’t heard of him- please listen to his solo work and/or his work with EXO. He’s incredible!
the iconic ? musicality is backkkk!!!!!!
YES
My absolute favorite😂
Mariah's vocal agility when it comes to runs is in her own separate category... she's literally god-level. How she is able to execute great vocal runs in multiple registers is simply mind-boggling.
Where is jessie j? She's literally a queen on runs
with her horrendous tone, its like chalk on a board. i would only include her in the overrun/nasal/ear hurting videos.
You mean oversing lol Her musicality is gross…
She really is though 😍👌
No Brandy? No Jazmine Sullivan? They are the masters at runs lol
Right? They are amazing!
They literally included Flo doing Jazmine's run, but not Jazmine herself...
Like huh
"she was crazy back then"
"she was crazy too"
its a crime to not be including jazmine sullivan in these types of videos... she was washing most people at 10 years old
This was the motivation i needed to work on my vocal agility😅
right i never have lmao
And to think that the person chose two of the most simple runs Kyungsoo did live. He has more complex,fast and impactful runs in my opinion. But it only shows how incredible he is
love to see exo and red velvet here!
DO KYUNGSOO ❤️❤️❤️ His vocals just kill me
I still giggle at the question mark 😂
Mariah's Musicality>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Omg that clip of recent Beyonce. LEGEND
I KNOW

This is always my issue with Christina. She stays overdoing it. It’ll be good but she’ll keep going until it’s not.
I love Christina but dang, she doesn’t have to overdo all the time. We know she can sing. Maybe back then she had something to prove? She just keeps going and going, a 3 minute song becomes twice as long.
mariah and camilla in the thumbnail is always so funny 💀
I love Avery but the ? for musicality is accurate af lol

My girls Xtina and Bey really loved to oversing back then.
The K in Kyungsoo stands for King of the runs
Can we appreciate that Christina's musicality has come a long way!😭😂
MIAMriah autotune like agility 🤯
Faouzia arabica inspired runs are so tasteful.
AND FLO IS JUST..., I LOVE THIS GIRLS❤❤❤
