Yeosang and Jongho singing together is my new obsession. They sound so good! Yeosang compliments and elevates Jongho's bombastic vocals higher than I thought was possible. I hope to find more in their earlier and future releases!
When yeosangs lower notes in wake up finally clicked for me- when I tell you I had to leave the room to stop myself from SCREAMING and embarrassing myself in front of my whole family. I replayed that part like 5 times smiling like an idiot 😂 idk I just find stuff in music like this so cool
Oh honey Dune isn’t just a religious experience I’m pretty sure it’s religious in nature. The choir? The pipe organ? The catholic in me was absolutely losing her mind the first time hearing it. I wanna do a video on their religious imagery, I’m so fascinated by it ✋😩
First they hit us with HALAZIA and then Dune and I would even add Wake Up. Dune is so dark and it’s like they’re summoning the demons out of you. Ugh it’s so good. It’s a niche I didn’t know I needed until they gave it to us.
THANK YOU. There was Reddit discourse over the use of religious imagery in halazia and some atinys were trying to defend the boys by saying it wasn’t actually religious imagery and I was like…no, no that’s very clearly a version of the sign of the cross lol. As an ex Catholic I personally enjoyed it lmao
@@peonylarkspur645 I mean as a devout catholic I’m very hyper aware of this stuff and am not afraid to critique if I see religion being used mockingly (especially when non Judeo-Christian religions are often heavily protected while mine if outwardly mocked), but I have yet to find Ateez using religion inappropriately. Alternatively, while I adore Oneus, they did use actual religious symbols in their vampire-based MV from a few years back which I wasn’t a huge fan of mostly because of how they used what appeared to be a monstrance (which we use in adoration to put the Eucharist in, you know literally the body of Christ) and it wasn’t really meant for anything other than “aesthetic” and they also had a crown of thorns and I was like “mmmmm….I really like you guys but I’m kinda side-eyeing your production team on this one.” Still like Oneus, I don’t think they or their company were doing anything intentional. I immediately noticed the Halazia move tho. They SAID it’s meant to be a number 4 and I kinda see it but I’m sorry they can’t convince me that wasn’t the sign of the cross, because again. I’m catholic, I know catholic imagery. Seonghwa with his arms out as if crucified, also during his part of the chorus when he has his hand pointed upward being VERY similar to a catholic benediction. Edit: came back to add that Silver Light is ALSO very religious. The silver light, flying toward the heavens and looking for paradise? Like come on. I know they’re pirates and it might be another Peter Pan reference but silver light is a very religious song in some aspects.
@@elizabethlevesque6978 misusing cultural aesthetics is just kinda par for the course in K-pop, I think - I have a complicated relationship with the church that boils down to “no longer practicing but still feels a deep cultural affinity” and reading that Reddit thread I was like eh, iykyk I guess
whoever requested that follow up has my eternal gratefulness! I'm OBSESSED WITH DUNE especially Yeosang's vocals it scratches a very specific part of my brain and i ascend into a higher dimension every time i hear it (fun fact: Hongjoong said that Eden wrote that partspecifically keeping Yeosang in mind and we all cheered)!!! and I'm so glad he did. anyways now lemme finish your video lol.
ookaay i finshed watching your video and omg I have sooo many thoughts. yes! he has started to put a lot of punch to his vocals during live stages recently and my heart just bursts with joy and makes me wanna root for him even more. He legit k worded me in the outlaw showcase. if you compare him to their very first tour to their most recent one as well, you will find soooo much improvement like I'm amazed! I agree with you when you say that Dune is literal perfection, not just for embracing Yeosang's deeper voice fully but also how it goes so well with the lyrics of the song/the concept. It's not there as a gimmick, it's there because it fits. ''it feels like a religious experience'' basically sums up Dune. The DANCE BREAK yesss!! probably my top fav DBs right after his DB in Inception. I'm glad that you talked about they started the bridge with him like it sounds so interesting. Wait people think it's Seonghwa??? The lisp at the end of Dangerous in Django. IT IS YEOSANG. I did register someone doing the backing vocals in Wake Up on a deeper scale but idk why I just assumed it was Yunho (maybe because he does a lot of backing vocals for ATEEZ in general) omg but I didn't know it was THAT low though. That is actually INSANE. I think I just got goosebumps. And here's me begging for more ATEEZ vocal analyses like these in the future (take your time, but I hope you consider doing one for each of them) because I really love listening to you talk about the ins and outs of their vocals and music. Looking forward to the Wooyoung video. (umm I hope you touch on his gritty/rough tone that he does sometimes like in good lil boy as well) I had so much fun watching this! thank you for showing love to our yeo
yooooooooo i just saw a video from coachella and YOU WERE RIGHT Seonghwa does the "calling me" but then it is Yeosang singing ALL OF THAT WOOOOOOOOOOOO
ATEEZ really just like to go wild with their vocals and honestly, I'm here for it...... I love the absolute vocal madness they create, their songs are just so fun
No, I agree that it's Yeosang at the beginning of Django. I also thought it was him to start with and then I got confused when everyone said it was Seonghwa and maybe I was just less good at recognising their voices than I thought? But, no, vindication! Or at least another vote! Side note but also just skipping to a different point in the video note? But in Bouncy, Yeosang's bridge opening literally slows down the song before the chorus makes it bouncy again. And in Dune, his part is literally just an application to become a cult leader and there was NO opposition. Actually, the threatening vibe of his line at the end of Django and in Outlaw makes me think of how I described getting to like Ateez right when I first found them, which was that you're essentially threatened into liking them. You simply must. They're SO intense and it works SO WELL. Regarding Wooyoung, I said this on the first Yeosang video (but late, way after it was posted) that Wooyoung's voice in the opening lines of HALA HALA was the first time I actually understood what novels meant by phrases like 'a voice clear as a bell'. His tone in general is very clear, but it really stands out in those first lines and the level of clarity and almost echoey? quality in his voice is so beautiful and honestly feels very rare. It sounds like his voice chimes.
Yes! The minute I heard Django, I was so happy because Yeosang was doing the opening. Then I seen everyone say it was Seonghwa, but I'm convinced it Yeosang, and I will be convinced until they do a live performance and prove me wrong.
omg i totally didnt notice yeosangs potential backing vocals in wake up, that’s so interesting and cool!! also i’m so glad i’m not the only one who thinks it was yeosang singing at the beginning of django lol 😭
I know next to nothing about music theory, but hearing you gush about Yeosang and the rest of ATEEZ just brings me so much joy. I'm learning so much from these videos, so I look forward to the Wooyoung installment. You had me dying at 4:40. Our precious Yeosang contains multitudes.
i'm really glad that our fandom is FINALLY talking about / discussing ATEEZ's vocals in depth because I feel like this aspect of theirs is painfully underrated!!
I reacted about the same as you did when I finally heard Yeosang's vocals in Wake Up. Because really, what can you do besides jump out of your chair in excitement when you hear that? His voice never ceases to amaze me, and i absolutely love how they're leaning into it now more than ever. That feathery quality on his lower notes especially-I feel like it resonates in my soul. It reminds me of when I first heard Patrick Page's voice in Hadestown…damnit, now I'm just thinking about how to possibly get Yeosang (and Jongho) to do a cover of Hey, Little Songbird…seriously, if any voice could get me to sell my soul, it would undoubtedly be Yeosang's. His Halazia part was genuinely the gateway drug to stanning them. I think I've listened to those two seconds more than any other title, and that includes my beloved that is Odd Eye. I agree with you on the general feel of the comeback-I get the point of the autotune, but man do I hope they keep letting their vocal tones shine naturally (or, well, as natural as it gets in kpop). I heard some very vague rumors of rock at least at some point, if not the next comeback, and I can only imagine how glorious their raw voices could be… Very excited for Wooyoung's part, because of all of the vocalists, his is the one I always have the hardest time identifying-it might be partly due to his lines, but he always seems to blend into the other voices for me. I'm very curious to learn what makes him stand out~
I'm so glad other people are just as excited as me about the backing vocals 😂 I also heard those rumors about a rock sound and I am PRAYING they go for it. They would kill that concept
@@violetception I KNOW, right…Instead of that gravelly tone, it'd be so perfectly alluring, with the fuzziness still giving it the necessary weight…and his lisp on "songbird," like…I need it. It'll never happen but I can dream about it.
Okay as someone who had a small obsession with Hadestown for a while (token theatre kid here who has been getting into KPOP since July), the concept of Jongho and Yeosang doing a cover of Hey Little Songbird would be one of the best things ever humanly conceived. I thank you for this idea. And I'm totally with you with the comparison of Patrick Page and Yeosang. That was my experience as well with Yeosang and Felix from Stray Kids so I'm really glad you made that comparison haha
I have accepted a long time ago that Seonghwa, Yunho and Yeosang will sound like each other to their hearts content to confuse those who THINK we know their voices
10:16 i agree with you. I haven't been paying much attention to anything online so, I haven't seen people say Hwa did the whole opening. But i thought he had the first line and then, Yeo, the rest.
OMG IM SO EXCITED TYSM FOR MAKING THIS VID!!!! 10:16 YES I HEARD THE LISP IN DJANGO TOO AND RAMBLED ABOUT IT TO MY FRIENDS BUT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS SEONGHWA 😭
About Django, I actually 100% sure it's Yeosang at the beginning. When I first saw a lyrics video I was suprised they put Seonghwa there, because for me it was obvious it's Yeosang. Then I read the comments and nobody noticed that was him? I thought maybe I am the one who is wrong, so I am happy there are are others who think it's Yeo.
Oh hun, that's DEFINITELY Yeosang in the beginning of Django other than the 'callin' me'. There ain't no way that's Seonghwa. I've listened to Yeosang's voice enough to be able to recognize his anywhere, and that's definitely him. And about those backing vocals in wake up, I had that part on repeat so much that I forgot that Wooyoung was the main person singing in that part, all I heard was Yeosang
honestly i've thought yeosang and seonghwa have had similar tones since their opening lines in fireworks, so I dont find it surprising that they sound similar in django! i still think seonghwa does all the lines at the beginning of django, but for the lisp you're hearing i think it may be due to how seonghwa tends to pronounce some english words which i also noticed in fireworks! his tongue is usually more forward and it seems to help pronunciation but i think it also lends itself to almost sounding like a lisp at times. but i also dont know much about singing :-) just thought it was cool that someone also thought they had similar tones
I didn't even know there was a question about wether it is Seonghwa or Yeosang who sing the second line in Django. To me it was always Yeosang. Only after it beeing brought up here did i second guess myself, but after listening to it on my phone with my noise cancelling earbuds I'm back to being sure it is Yeosang. I think the quality of the source and speakers/earbuds you are listening with is playing a big part in peoples confusion here, because testing with different sources and my good earbuds vs crappy speakers it defenitly is much easier to pick out that it is Yeosang with a good source and good earbuds.
I'm starting to wonder where the official sources for the lyrics get their info because Yeosang is clearly there. And yes, speaker/headphone quality really makes a difference. I recently got a way better pair of headphones and it's like I'm hearing each song for the first time again
Coachella proved you right about the opening of DJANGO! XD Your ear is truly incredible (and I can’t wait for your next ATEEZ vocalist deep dive video~~❤)
Please, I was also thinking that in django, maybe there's potentially yeosang but I can hardly differentiate voices, so I was not sure BUT you also said this so this makes me so happy cuz I wasn't the only one. And to talk about dune, I was so shocked that I almost threw my phone away. The transition from san's sweet honey vocals to yeosang's hellnotes.. Oh god, yeo's voice was literally vibrating in my ribcage. The whole album was so good that I got goosebumps on the first listen and I still do. It's crazy how they outdo themselves every comeback. And speaking of comeback......I am genuinely not ready for a comeback this soon. I was not expecting anything this December or January but they're already putting out teasers. Oh those sneaky little pirates! Anyways I loved the video! I totally respect your opinions. Thanks alot Love ya!💜
yayee enjoyed this I have always felt he had a deep metal base voice and knowing deep tones are not common in kpop i guessed he wasn't keen on using it, really glad he is finally using his natural deep tone
I love the fact that we get to hear him more in this album. He has such amazing vocals (I believe the description I saw was warm melty honey and they’re not wrong). I feel like this album showcased all their vocals really well for the first time. The lyrics seemed really balanced. I guess he said early on he wasn’t that confident in his voice so he didn’t want a lot of parts, but I feel like he as whole has grown exponentially over the last few years. Even his dancing and stage presence seems stronger. I feel like while KQ is not a perfect company, they are investing in helping their artists improve all around and I think it’s visible. We all said something changed with the first World EP how they just elevated. I’m glad all their hard work is finally paying off. I’m not too much of an autotune fan either, but I understand it for stylistic choice. It does make it a lot harder to understand who’s singing though.
i only just found your channel but i have to tell you i'm obsessed!! mainly because: 1. i'm the biggest atiny in the world, i could shout from the rooftops how much i love these dudes 2. i loooooove video essays and am so so happy to find someone creating analytical content about kpop 3. i am really interested in vocals/performance (the theatre kid in me jumped out oops) and am, again, incredibly happy to find someone else talking about ateez's music with such depth and consideration anyways, i just wanted to say-- keep up the good work! i'm excitedly anticipating your videos about the other members :)
Oh god, you have no idea how much i like these Yeosang analysis videos. I don't know a thing about voice, singing or whatever but i love to listen to every word Yeo sings, i love his voice so much. He catched my attention since debut and it's interesting to see how his voice is becoming better and better
Tbh I don't think is up to debate? It really is Yeosang instead of Sh in that part Django! And Sh the ain't nobody mess with django yup! Also, I'm the only one that thinks the sondeuro of the end sounds a lot like Woo?? Never heard them sound similar till that! And you describing that velvety and feathery quality on Yeo is making me notice he has that in common with Wooyoung and they would sound amazing together with Woo on the lower register! And with their raspiness too! Or the high tone of Yeosang in Desire or the ones you put here and Woo with the way he sang the chorus on the Etham cover! Chef kiss
So glad you made this follow up, definitely needed after Outlaw, so happy Yeosang got his big moment in Dune too~ I can also hear those F2 harmonies, worth the keyboard smash 😂😂 Interested to hear what you make of Wooyoung on your analysis, his natural colour is pretty distinct in the group and he often has often used some strain to try and get more power, so I’ll look forward to your take on that and what direction you think would suit him best. Love Ateez and not at all trying to pick on Wooyoung here at all, I’m a big fan of all of them. Love the content! 😁
Also regarding the background vocals of Wake Up im shook i never noticed who was doing them but I DID notice the chanty parts behind Jongho's high notes were also deep af and probably had Yeosang in the backing vocals as well.
I love your videos. I had the same initial favorites of the album, Bouncy is such a fascinating song in that I don't always love it in passing, but if I hear it on a good sound system and I can hear all of it, I find it such a fun sonic experience and that has never really happened for me before. Excited to see a breakdown of Woo's voice!
My YT Music Wrapped 2023 claimed that my top 3 songs of last year were 1. Halazia 2. Dune 3. Bouncy and I think it's very telling how I feel about Yeosang's voice lmao
Omg I was just about to comment how I loved how they utilised wooyoungs s voice in this album. Like it stood out to me when I listened to the while album without any breaks
Hi I am new Atiny, you make me excited for the new comeback. I was kind of disappointed because Bouncy and Crazy form cb did not feature Yeosang that much. But your analysis of Yeosang's vpice and it's likely trajectory makes me feel things. Thank you😊
i love singing along to Yeosang, he challanges me a little by going slighlty lower than what i find easy. its a nice change. i also have a lisp and in Bouncy when he sings "sal sun eopseo" i'm like. yes. yes yeosang we do that together lol i just love singing to ateez. the range is exciting
i love ur videos on yeosang so so much i love hearing these analyses and i could only hope that when you do wooyoung and san's videos you mention their last parts in dune bc hearing them like that made me go mad (at least i think that's them doing those last two high notes)
Ive seen so many vocal reaction and analysis videos of Ateez, but i feel like yours are just so much more methodical and in depth. I really like how you put together examples and explain how every members' voice works! Request: if you dont mind, can you do Wooyoung or San next? I feel like Wooyoung is more known for his dancing, so im curious what u think of his voice. And then San is...well San 😂 his voice is kind of a treasure trove 😂
Watching this two days before their new comeback comes out is so silly cause i just know their gonna pull some crazy shit with Yeosang's voice (especially since the mama performance of crazy form happened today and his little section / dance break thing he gets is amazing). Also like i have a feeling Yeosang is gonna be amazing in Arriba considering how low sounding the preview is. Also also Emergency Yeosang is gonna be so fucking cool!!!! like idk how little lines that man gets in that song he is going to eat it up no matter what .
I know this is an older video but I just came across your channel and I am so excited that there's someone else who searches for the lisp! I love Yeosang... It's nice to know that I'm not alone in the lisp radar aspect.
Finally someone noticed yeosang's intro in django, like the first time I hear it. The lisp was prominent, he is that. He sings it. Although I also have some opinions about who really sings the first verse cause it sounds like yeosang than seonghwa but there's definitely a combi there so yeah.
I love your analysis!!! I'm learning so much! I always wanted to know who started "Wake Up," it really energizes me when I'm running! I feel like I'm flying! LOL!
I'm so glad you made this video I love Yeosang's voice. I was hoping they would use his vocals. I love those deepnotes, especially that f2 you pointed out. He has so many good vocals on Outlaw. I am glad you pointed them out. Especially the background, I had to listen again. I was so glad I did! OMG I love his deep vocals in Halazia, that just hits a plce down in your soul. I hope they continue to use his vocals more. More deep notes please?😊
4:47 That's the picture I always use when I show people Dune. 9:40 in the live Seonghwa does "Calling me" and then it is Yeosang. So yeah, that's right
i really enjoy your videos. i'm very interested in music and vocal analysis, so to hear you break down yeosang really got me to notice more characteristics from him singing and the other members. and i was just really excited when i saw that this video released \ (•◡•) / i just really think you do such a good job going in depth
in regards to yeosang being the last one to leave a crime scene telling witnesses to keep their mouths shut - judging by him casually manhadling hostages in rhythm ta and staring down the camera at the end of many MVs, this is exactly what he would do.
4:48 had me chuckling with that cute af picture of Yeosang with his “hell notes” just chillin in the background lol 😂😂💕 I’m a new fan to Ateez, I was just trying to learn their names and then I got swept up in their music and personalities ✨ No regrets ✨
I loved this video!! I’m so so excited for Wooyoung. I think his vocals are CRIMINALLY underrated and overlooked. I think he has so much potential. Like this album he really popped off, and I loved when he used power and diaphragm ig. He’s surprised me a couple times on regular vids like logbooks, etc, when he just bursts into song. I think kq and Eden are really not using his voice as much as they should be. I think he can be on the same power level as San imo. Maybe that also has smth to do with his self confidence I’m not sure, but I KNOW he can do so much more than what is being presented
It took me a while to like Bouncy as well because their b-sides are just that good. Dune is my favorite from Outlaw partly due to Yeosang’s/Yunho’s prechorus(?). And the rest due to Wooyoung’s/Yunho’s bridge. It’s an almost seamless transition between their voices, except for that beat between the voices.
czcams.com/video/L1YB-UOVmOo/video.htmlfeature=shared According to the Will to Power concert, Seonghwa sings calling me and Yeosang appears and sings do that, okay go ahead
As a yeosang Stan, I can assure you after 4 years of trying to find his lines (a very challenging job bcs my man had 5 secs in a song at most) the first part of Django is his (95% sure 5% gaslighting myself) bcs seonghwa's voice is just isn't like that. Idk any of the music terms but I definitely have the experience of trying to find my man almost non-existing line to the point that I had icks for some ateez songs. Sorry not sorry (not an akgae tho, I'm just not into how they use yeosang voice back then)
I hate to be this person, trust me I really do, but honestly, I would be so here for videos of this kind for all members. So if you felt so inclined, please know you've got support in this! 🥹
Yeosang and Jongho singing together is my new obsession. They sound so good! Yeosang compliments and elevates Jongho's bombastic vocals higher than I thought was possible. I hope to find more in their earlier and future releases!
When yeosangs lower notes in wake up finally clicked for me- when I tell you I had to leave the room to stop myself from SCREAMING and embarrassing myself in front of my whole family. I replayed that part like 5 times smiling like an idiot 😂 idk I just find stuff in music like this so cool

Right? I always thought it was him too, but I looked up the official lyric breakdown just in case and it all says Seonghwa. I refuse to believe it
@@catchingteez what!? for real. 💀I need to see him sing it to believe that. I hear Yeosangs vocal tone, not Hwas.
more ATEEZ analyses AND on different members??? you are spoiling us
If anything I'm spoiling myself because this series is entirely a guilty pleasure. I'm just happy yall enjoy it as much as me
I can’t stop listening to “ it’s you ” cuz of yeosang. Like the “ show show flow flow we can take it slow ” part SHUT UP ITS SO GOOD UGH.

It reminds me of when I first heard Patrick Page's voice in Hadestown…damnit, now I'm just thinking about how to possibly get Yeosang (and Jongho) to do a cover of Hey, Little Songbird…seriously, if any voice could get me to sell my soul, it would undoubtedly be Yeosang's. His Halazia part was genuinely the gateway drug to stanning them. I think I've listened to those two seconds more than any other title, and that includes my beloved that is Odd Eye.
I agree with you on the general feel of the comeback-I get the point of the autotune, but man do I hope they keep letting their vocal tones shine naturally (or, well, as natural as it gets in kpop). I heard some very vague rumors of rock at least at some point, if not the next comeback, and I can only imagine how glorious their raw voices could be…
Very excited for Wooyoung's part, because of all of the vocalists, his is the one I always have the hardest time identifying-it might be partly due to his lines, but he always seems to blend into the other voices for me. I'm very curious to learn what makes him stand out~
I'm so glad other people are just as excited as me about the backing vocals 😂
I also heard those rumors about a rock sound and I am PRAYING they go for it. They would kill that concept
oh my god a yeosang hey little songbird cover would absolutely destroy me aaaahhghghhhghg
@@violetception I KNOW, right…Instead of that gravelly tone, it'd be so perfectly alluring, with the fuzziness still giving it the necessary weight…and his lisp on "songbird," like…I need it. It'll never happen but I can dream about it.
Okay as someone who had a small obsession with Hadestown for a while (token theatre kid here who has been getting into KPOP since July), the concept of Jongho and Yeosang doing a cover of Hey Little Songbird would be one of the best things ever humanly conceived. I thank you for this idea. And I'm totally with you with the comparison of Patrick Page and Yeosang. That was my experience as well with Yeosang and Felix from Stray Kids so I'm really glad you made that comparison haha
Hearing the beginning of ARRIBA and my first thought was "CatchingTeez Yeosang Vocal Analysis Part 3"
I have accepted a long time ago that Seonghwa, Yunho and Yeosang will sound like each other to their hearts content to confuse those who THINK we know their voices
10:16 i agree with you. I haven't been paying much attention to anything online so, I haven't seen people say Hwa did the whole opening. But i thought he had the first line and then, Yeo, the rest.
i 1000000% agree that i always thought it was yeosang at the beginning, that lisp is so there.
Pls include Wooyoung's part in Poppia in your analysis of him! He sounds so good there! And this is A+ work, fantastic, keep it up!
Oh Poppia is already in there, trust me
OMG IM SO EXCITED TYSM FOR MAKING THIS VID!!!!
10:16 YES I HEARD THE LISP IN DJANGO TOO AND RAMBLED ABOUT IT TO MY FRIENDS BUT THEY TOLD ME IT WAS SEONGHWA 😭
DON'T LET THEM GASLIGHT YOU
@catchingteez HAHAHAHAH WILL DO!!! I got my ears peeled for their next cb. Also I genuinely love all your videos sm so ty for making them :3
nooo i didnt know that this was actually controversial! it's definitely yeosang!
About Django, I actually 100% sure it's Yeosang at the beginning. When I first saw a lyrics video I was suprised they put Seonghwa there, because for me it was obvious it's Yeosang. Then I read the comments and nobody noticed that was him? I thought maybe I am the one who is wrong, so I am happy there are are others who think it's Yeo.
OMG! I didn't expect another Yeosang vocal analysis. CatchingTeez you just made my day!!!! 🫶🫶🫶
Oh hun, that's DEFINITELY Yeosang in the beginning of Django other than the 'callin' me'. There ain't no way that's Seonghwa. I've listened to Yeosang's voice enough to be able to recognize his anywhere, and that's definitely him. And about those backing vocals in wake up, I had that part on repeat so much that I forgot that Wooyoung was the main person singing in that part, all I heard was Yeosang
honestly i've thought yeosang and seonghwa have had similar tones since their opening lines in fireworks, so I dont find it surprising that they sound similar in django! i still think seonghwa does all the lines at the beginning of django, but for the lisp you're hearing i think it may be due to how seonghwa tends to pronounce some english words which i also noticed in fireworks! his tongue is usually more forward and it seems to help pronunciation but i think it also lends itself to almost sounding like a lisp at times. but i also dont know much about singing :-) just thought it was cool that someone also thought they had similar tones
I didn't even know there was a question about wether it is Seonghwa or Yeosang who sing the second line in Django. To me it was always Yeosang. Only after it beeing brought up here did i second guess myself, but after listening to it on my phone with my noise cancelling earbuds I'm back to being sure it is Yeosang. I think the quality of the source and speakers/earbuds you are listening with is playing a big part in peoples confusion here, because testing with different sources and my good earbuds vs crappy speakers it defenitly is much easier to pick out that it is Yeosang with a good source and good earbuds.
I'm starting to wonder where the official sources for the lyrics get their info because Yeosang is clearly there. And yes, speaker/headphone quality really makes a difference. I recently got a way better pair of headphones and it's like I'm hearing each song for the first time again
I was listening to this album rn, so this couldn't come more perfectly
Woke up from a nightmare and this was perfect to play while I calmed myself down. Love ateez💙
The way I was convinced it was Yunho doing that part in Dune 💀
Honestly, understandable. The two of them sound pretty similar in that range. Yeosang is just ever so slightly airier and has his lisp
You're absolutely right, he starts Django!!! I knew it since the moment I heard it 😭
i also noticed yeosang at the baseline in wake up so i don't think you're crazy at all, i thought it was actually pretty prominent!
Coachella proved you right about the opening of DJANGO! XD Your ear is truly incredible (and I can’t wait for your next ATEEZ vocalist deep dive video~~❤)
I know this has nothing to do with this video but I love your voice, its really beautiful🙂
And I love listening to your analyzing, makes me appreciate the member a lot more and IM SO PROUD OF YEOSANG!!!
Please, I was also thinking that in django, maybe there's potentially yeosang but I can hardly differentiate voices, so I was not sure BUT you also said this so this makes me so happy cuz I wasn't the only one. And to talk about dune, I was so shocked that I almost threw my phone away. The transition from san's sweet honey vocals to yeosang's hellnotes.. Oh god, yeo's voice was literally vibrating in my ribcage. The whole album was so good that I got goosebumps on the first listen and I still do.
It's crazy how they outdo themselves every comeback.
And speaking of comeback......I am genuinely not ready for a comeback this soon. I was not expecting anything this December or January but they're already putting out teasers. Oh those sneaky little pirates!
Anyways I loved the video!
I totally respect your opinions.
Thanks alot
Love ya!💜
You were right about Django, they performed it live!
Obsessed with these voice analysis videos, can't wait for the other ones!
yayee enjoyed this I have always felt he had a deep metal base voice and knowing deep tones are not common in kpop i guessed he wasn't keen on using it, really glad he is finally using his natural deep tone
My bias. ❤ Thank you for this video
I love the fact that we get to hear him more in this album. He has such amazing vocals (I believe the description I saw was warm melty honey and they’re not wrong). I feel like this album showcased all their vocals really well for the first time. The lyrics seemed really balanced. I guess he said early on he wasn’t that confident in his voice so he didn’t want a lot of parts, but I feel like he as whole has grown exponentially over the last few years. Even his dancing and stage presence seems stronger. I feel like while KQ is not a perfect company, they are investing in helping their artists improve all around and I think it’s visible. We all said something changed with the first World EP how they just elevated. I’m glad all their hard work is finally paying off. I’m not too much of an autotune fan either, but I understand it for stylistic choice. It does make it a lot harder to understand who’s singing though.
i only just found your channel but i have to tell you i'm obsessed!! mainly because:
1. i'm the biggest atiny in the world, i could shout from the rooftops how much i love these dudes
2. i loooooove video essays and am so so happy to find someone creating analytical content about kpop
3. i am really interested in vocals/performance (the theatre kid in me jumped out oops) and am, again, incredibly happy to find someone else talking about ateez's music with such depth and consideration
anyways, i just wanted to say-- keep up the good work! i'm excitedly anticipating your videos about the other members :)
Oh god, you have no idea how much i like these Yeosang analysis videos. I don't know a thing about voice, singing or whatever but i love to listen to every word Yeo sings, i love his voice so much. He catched my attention since debut and it's interesting to see how his voice is becoming better and better
Tbh I don't think is up to debate? It really is Yeosang instead of Sh in that part Django! And Sh the ain't nobody mess with django yup!
Also, I'm the only one that thinks the sondeuro of the end sounds a lot like Woo?? Never heard them sound similar till that! And you describing that velvety and feathery quality on Yeo is making me notice he has that in common with Wooyoung and they would sound amazing together with Woo on the lower register! And with their raspiness too! Or the high tone of Yeosang in Desire or the ones you put here and Woo with the way he sang the chorus on the Etham cover! Chef kiss
So glad you made this follow up, definitely needed after Outlaw, so happy Yeosang got his big moment in Dune too~ I can also hear those F2 harmonies, worth the keyboard smash 😂😂
Interested to hear what you make of Wooyoung on your analysis, his natural colour is pretty distinct in the group and he often has often used some strain to try and get more power, so I’ll look forward to your take on that and what direction you think would suit him best.
Love Ateez and not at all trying to pick on Wooyoung here at all, I’m a big fan of all of them. Love the content! 😁
I love your channel but the Yeosang appreciation is making me love you more ❤❤❤
Also regarding the background vocals of Wake Up im shook i never noticed who was doing them but I DID notice the chanty parts behind Jongho's high notes were also deep af and probably had Yeosang in the backing vocals as well.
I love your videos. I had the same initial favorites of the album, Bouncy is such a fascinating song in that I don't always love it in passing, but if I hear it on a good sound system and I can hear all of it, I find it such a fun sonic experience and that has never really happened for me before. Excited to see a breakdown of Woo's voice!
My YT Music Wrapped 2023 claimed that my top 3 songs of last year were 1. Halazia 2. Dune 3. Bouncy and I think it's very telling how I feel about Yeosang's voice lmao
Omg I was just about to comment how I loved how they utilised wooyoungs s voice in this album. Like it stood out to me when I listened to the while album without any breaks
Hi I am new Atiny, you make me excited for the new comeback. I was kind of disappointed because Bouncy and Crazy form cb did not feature Yeosang that much. But your analysis of Yeosang's vpice and it's likely trajectory makes me feel things. Thank you😊
i love singing along to Yeosang, he challanges me a little by going slighlty lower than what i find easy. its a nice change. i also have a lisp and in Bouncy when he sings "sal sun eopseo" i'm like. yes. yes yeosang we do that together lol
i just love singing to ateez. the range is exciting
Also, I wholeheartedly agree with your Django theory
i love ur videos on yeosang so so much i love hearing these analyses and i could only hope that when you do wooyoung and san's videos you mention their last parts in dune bc hearing them like that made me go mad (at least i think that's them doing those last two high notes)
and now we have IT's You, the subunit song. K.O.
Ive seen so many vocal reaction and analysis videos of Ateez, but i feel like yours are just so much more methodical and in depth. I really like how you put together examples and explain how every members' voice works!
Request: if you dont mind, can you do Wooyoung or San next? I feel like Wooyoung is more known for his dancing, so im curious what u think of his voice. And then San is...well San 😂 his voice is kind of a treasure trove 😂
Thank u for being the nerd you are and feeding my yeosang voice enthusiast heart ❤️
Watching this two days before their new comeback comes out is so silly cause i just know their gonna pull some crazy shit with Yeosang's voice (especially since the mama performance of crazy form happened today and his little section / dance break thing he gets is amazing). Also like i have a feeling Yeosang is gonna be amazing in Arriba considering how low sounding the preview is. Also also Emergency Yeosang is gonna be so fucking cool!!!! like idk how little lines that man gets in that song he is going to eat it up no matter what .
I know this is an older video but I just came across your channel and I am so excited that there's someone else who searches for the lisp! I love Yeosang... It's nice to know that I'm not alone in the lisp radar aspect.
Finally someone noticed yeosang's intro in django, like the first time I hear it. The lisp was prominent, he is that. He sings it. Although I also have some opinions about who really sings the first verse cause it sounds like yeosang than seonghwa but there's definitely a combi there so yeah.
I love your analysis!!! I'm learning so much! I always wanted to know who started "Wake Up," it really energizes me when I'm running! I feel like I'm flying! LOL!
I'm so glad you made this video I love Yeosang's voice. I was hoping they would use his vocals. I love those deepnotes, especially that f2 you pointed out. He has so many good vocals on Outlaw. I am glad you pointed them out. Especially the background, I had to listen again. I was so glad I did! OMG I love his deep vocals in Halazia, that just hits a plce down in your soul. I hope they continue to use his vocals more. More deep notes please?😊
with each release i become closer to being a yeosang stan
4:47 That's the picture I always use when I show people Dune. 9:40 in the live Seonghwa does "Calling me" and then it is Yeosang. So yeah, that's right
i really enjoy your videos. i'm very interested in music and vocal analysis, so to hear you break down yeosang really got me to notice more characteristics from him singing and the other members. and i was just really excited when i saw that this video released
\ (•◡•) / i just really think you do such a good job going in depth
in regards to yeosang being the last one to leave a crime scene telling witnesses to keep their mouths shut - judging by him casually manhadling hostages in rhythm ta and staring down the camera at the end of many MVs, this is exactly what he would do.
4:48 had me chuckling with that cute af picture of Yeosang with his “hell notes” just chillin in the background lol 😂😂💕 I’m a new fan to Ateez, I was just trying to learn their names and then I got swept up in their music and personalities ✨ No regrets ✨
Outlaw is my favorite release, definitely due to yeosangs features in this ep. Esp dune and this world.
AHHH OMG I MISSED YOU YAY IM SO ECITED THANK YOU SM
its so endlessly hilarious to me how we collectively recognize yeosang lines that we arent sure of via his lisp 😭
I loved this video!! I’m so so excited for Wooyoung. I think his vocals are CRIMINALLY underrated and overlooked. I think he has so much potential. Like this album he really popped off, and I loved when he used power and diaphragm ig. He’s surprised me a couple times on regular vids like logbooks, etc, when he just bursts into song. I think kq and Eden are really not using his voice as much as they should be. I think he can be on the same power level as San imo. Maybe that also has smth to do with his self confidence I’m not sure, but I KNOW he can do so much more than what is being presented
It took me a while to like Bouncy as well because their b-sides are just that good. Dune is my favorite from Outlaw partly due to Yeosang’s/Yunho’s prechorus(?). And the rest due to Wooyoung’s/Yunho’s bridge. It’s an almost seamless transition between their voices, except for that beat between the voices.
hohohoho i'm so excited to watch this :DDD
I was wondering if you could do a song analyst on Say my name especially the last chorus
I love ur ateez analysis so much!!
15:17, never heard that sound until now, literally scared me
Yeah outlaw album is my fev. Album all song on it are just crazy good❤❤❤
czcams.com/video/L1YB-UOVmOo/video.htmlfeature=shared
According to the Will to Power concert, Seonghwa sings calling me and Yeosang appears and sings do that, okay go ahead
the "lies control rules" i SWEAR that's yunho idk how I know but I just know that's yunho
Isn't dune's chorus both yeosang and yunho 4:45 ?
San when? Lol 😊
He's going to be further down the line because he's... a lot. Still haven't worked out the exact order, but either 2nd to last or third to last
@catchingteez I will wait patiently 🙂
As a yeosang Stan, I can assure you after 4 years of trying to find his lines (a very challenging job bcs my man had 5 secs in a song at most) the first part of Django is his (95% sure 5% gaslighting myself) bcs seonghwa's voice is just isn't like that. Idk any of the music terms but I definitely have the experience of trying to find my man almost non-existing line to the point that I had icks for some ateez songs. Sorry not sorry (not an akgae tho, I'm just not into how they use yeosang voice back then)
I hate to be this person, trust me I really do, but honestly, I would be so here for videos of this kind for all members. So if you felt so inclined, please know you've got support in this! 🥹
