His voice sounds humble and sincere.
Of all these types of videos, you are by far my favorite. You are always kind. You are always honest, and you give some of the best information. Thank you.
Thank you so much!
Nice to see you back, Sam...
His voice shows his emotion. And it shows me that my imperfect voice could touch peoples souls too. Ya know.
He Emotes so well and and that makes up for where his voice might lack.
I think Posty isn't a "singer" per se but more of a performer. Imo
I'd love to see more Posty.
I don't listen to much Post... just sorta missed me... other than the spiderverse track cause that was just everywhere... but I did watch this tiny desk concert and man does he just ooze sincerity. He's crazy famous and starts this off thanking them all for listening to his busted ass voice cause he's touring but he clearly really wanted to be there and to sing for this group then went on to have a blast and everyone around him looked like they were also having a blast. I know some people watched it and thought "oof this is rough, a hard listen" and I just don't know how the vibes didn't wash over them cause Im not a fan of this dude (or I guess wasnt cause that performance kinda sold me) and the vibes were immaculate. Then again I've always preferred character to clarity in a voice.
Immaculate vibes indeed...thanks for your insight!
his newest album is such a vibe, it just feels so different from a lot of his other albums. i feel like it shows his voice a lot more!
Well said!
He is one of the nicest guys in the world.
I am his super fan and always be in the pit at his concert - I don’t think he has the best correct vocal - but I love his music, the meaning behind, and his vibe when he is performing
I love the combination of his look, story, personality, voice, and the song. His voice not being “perfect” serves his style so well!
Always fascinating how people like imperfections so much yet we try so hard to avoid them
@@SamJohnsonVoiceHave you heard him sing "I'm Gonna Miss Her" , by Brad Paisley? If not please do yourself a favor and listen, the video is here on CZcams. I'm not a country music fan, but WOW he did it so well! I actually saw a comment from Brad Paisley to Posty on TikTok and Brad said, "You sang it better than me". Of course Post was so humbled by it. Such a beautiful soul.
I can't believe I didn't hit subscribe 2 years ago when I first found you! Going back to watch your past videos
Post is a very compassionate, humble and loving performer. These qualities are highlighted in his performances. Just like the girl in the corner, I can’t help from smiling whenever I see him perform. Thank you for the education on voice formation. I have never been to a vocal coach so I found it very interesting and insightful.
I love your honest assessment of this. I do think it's his passion, and kind, gentle manner that makes him likable and popular.
Hearing you talk about how lifestyle affects the voice I was immediately thinking of Whitney Houston. I think she had the healthiest technique when she started and in the end she wasn't even able to finish one song with a tiny range. I know it's not a recent topic but would you be interested to analyze the development of her voice through the years?
Whitney is always current
Ah maybeeeee. She's one of my favorite vocalists ever. Really tough story to talk about tho
You are such a good teacher. That you can listen and watch a person do a performance and pull things out that your viewers can put into practice is so impressive to me. I'm also so grateful that you continue to stay kind. ❤️
Good to see you again Sam!
Thanks!
I’m so happy you’re back! I love Post. He’s amazing and just oozes sincerity and modesty.
So happy to see you back!!! 🎉
Thank you Tiffany!!! Hope you're killing it, lmk next time you gig around here
The message that you put out today was what I needed to hear. You didn’t focus on tonality you didn’t focus on pitch you focused on charisma, you focused on personal expression. I have struggled with confidence in singing my whole life, trying to sound like other singers, when I enjoy and admire and adore singers, who are imperfect, and have so much personality and heart and soul, that you can feel it, we don’t need a world full of gospel belters. We need those people but not only those people we need everybody who has a point of you and a voice and a uniqueness to share. Thank you thank you thank you thank you you are a lovely human. And I agree with everything you said about Post Malone being a lovely human. You can see that love coming from the artist all around him and just how much everybody is enjoying sharing the space with him. That is what we need to see.
knowing something well, liking it a lot, wanting to communicate things, and letting these things guide you. wrote this down
New subscriber here - I'm loving your reaction/analysis videos, they are so helpful! I feel like it's the vulnerability in his voice and his lyrics that a lot of us can relate to, rather than it being any specific tonal quality. Although I do love his casual style and a bit of rasp!
It’s lovely to see a vocal analysis and reaction video from you in my feed today! Thanks for sharing your expertise with us again Sam. Yours are my favourite analysis videos. I’d love to hear your analysis of Kasey Chambers’ cover of Loose Yourself or John Farnham’s cover of Help if you’re looking for ideas.
Great takes in this Sam!
Notification gang where you at??
U rule
Great review, I am a huge Posty fan. He is such a humble, kind human. You can tell he adores his fans and always shows them so much love. His music is so diverse. From hip hop, rock, country, you can't pigeon hole him. New album is awesome, really different from previous albums (all of which I love).
Hot smoke type things going past his vocal folds 😂
God I love you.
pleasure watching you react and have so much fun
Thank you for watching!!!
The thing I love about especially watching Post Malone play and that is is so clear he is genuinely, and deeply thrilled with what he is doing and he is having the most amazing time. His joy and energy is infectious just watching him. ( Also if you haven't seen clips of him dancing at his shows, it is pure joy and worth looking up )
Love his new vid "Overdrive"! I love just about everything this man does!
Glad your back!
I sooo love his voice and the way he omits so much soul and passion.While no he’s not the perfect singer and he screeches sometimes or misses notes but he is so talented it doesn’t matter.
I'm excited for the book!
It's been a while since I've popped in but this is still a very informative video and quite positive, (which is important in one's musical journey). I think a lot of people can take away a lot from this
Great to see u back
Glad you're back ✨
Hi Sam! Welcome back, good to see you. Hope you're well!
Love the video!
post is a man who loves his craft, that's evident even if you're not a fan of that particular sound. circles is one i keep revisiting too
hi sam! you've probably gotten a ton of requests for REN already, but besides his undeniably masterful "hi ren," I would also humbly request "the tale of jenny & screech/violet's tale" (the trilogy of live music videos in full), "how to be me" and "chalk outlines" both live with chinchilla, "money game," "sick boi," the live acoustic versions of "animal flow" and "murderer," and any of his live busking performances with his former band the big push. I think you'd really love REN's overall well-rounded musicality and virtuosity
Sam, I’d love to see you do one of these videos for the Dessa tiny desk concert. She and Abby Wolf have some amazing harmonies in that video and I’d really enjoy hearing your opinion
For me it's the vulnerability I think, just sounds honest
I love this song BTW, loved seeing your video on it!
Do look into Cannons! They performed live recently too, at coachella and Jimmy Fallon. Awesome awesome band and vocals.
I’ve been waiting for you to react to Post Malone. I love his voice.
Another Sam video! 😊
It would be interesting to compare a song from early on the tour to the same song late in the tour
Very cool idea
6:30 I am only up to this point, so I don’t know if you had mentioned it yet, but let’s remember that he openly admits not to mention it’s obviously clear as hell that he loves his autotune still sounds good, but let’s not forget he gets a lot of help on the backend. But at least he admitted to unlike other singers, I won’t mention who say they don’t use auto tunes, which we know in this day and age everybody uses pretty much auto tune for the most part, including not even playing real instrument.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on Stevie Nicks' voice over the years. Its changed a lot obviously due to lifestyle and age. She's also talked about bad technique when she first joined Fleetwood Mac. She sounds really different yet not.
Being authentic and coming across that way. Not being afraid of maybe making sounds that aren't always considered "pretty". Also you should react to post Malone singing Nirvana songs. He did a whole show of them during the pandemic on you tube. So good.
Great to see you back! Missed your thoughts and teaching. I would really like to hear you react to Dakha Brakha. They are Ukrainian, and don't single in English. But their tone is so unique and I would love to hear your thoughts on the nasality.
Always found his voice interesting
yay, a video! ❤
I seriously admire your fair assessments of voices, you don’t go for the cheap & easy sensational reaction. You really analyze and give fair critique, and good and bad, and share so much knowledge and wisdom about music & singing. Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
youtube had me unsub for the longest, I was wondering why there hasn't been any uploads. Your insight is great. thank you for the content.
I hadn't uploaded for white a while, thanks for sticking around!
@@SamJohnsonVoice the issue is about a week ago I found out I was unsubbed, and it's been a problem on youtube forever. They like to unsub on random channels.
You have to do a reaction on one of Paolo Nutini’s live performances. From a technical standpoint, I’m not sure what can be improved. Although I’m interested in seeing your perspective on his distortion
Would love it if you could react to Paul heaton from the housemartins and beautiful south. Amazing voice.
Always thought his vibrato was some lame post-processing thing {like how you can make an artificial vibrato in ProTools} but he actually just sounds like that?? Almost 'bleating'? I LOVE it.
You need to check out the group lawrence. It's a brother and sister soul pop duo with a 8 piece band and his voice is super interesting and she just has the best voice. They just released a new live performance of their new song "I'm confident that I'm insecure"
he just is real... his production is also next level
I love his demeanor and how humble he is and no I wouldn't want his voice to be bottled or anyone to sing like him because he wouldn't be unique there's only 1 Post Malone and I'm pretty sure his parents love it that way as we all do ❤😊🫶
Post Malone just…..works.
Great music.
Victor Wooten on bass 💖💕💖
I could never be a vocal couch id tell Post to never change a thing
it's 100% the sincerity the singers i love the most usually arent crazy on a technical level but i believe they mean every note. i think a lot of technically great sings can be very boring because their focus is not in feeling the song
You should react to Omar Apollo tiny desk
Hi, in the video he does say that his voice is messed up cause of touring.
I think a reaction to Courtney LaPlante from Spirit Box would be amazing. I respect your opinion so much :)
Great video! Would love too see you react to Linkin Park - The Little Things Give You Away live!
I would LOVE for you to check out “Slow Bloom” by “The Home Team”. Guy has an AMAZING voice and I would love for you to dissect how he does it and or comment
and to think hes losing his voice a bit from tour! hes so good.
I have to request carrie underwood doing how great thou art live again. But otherwise, Halle Bailey dropped angel live and it would be great to see you react to her as well!
He's baaaaack!
Matt anderson aint no sunshine cover would be a good reaction video the range that guy has is wild
Good to see you back, Sam!
The thing about Post Malone, to me, is that he's captivating when he sings. He's not focusing on sounding good, he's focusing on telling a story, his story. That's what makes a lot of people like his singing, I think, despite him maybe not having the best vocal technique, or being always on pitch.
All that truly matters
bro he's on tour
he said it on the beginning of the video
check his i'm gonna miss her cover
ya i know
Very cool that being “sincere” is all it takes to be made a multi millionaire singer 🤗😝😝
More Taylor Swift pls!! her vocal evolution and the ERAS Tour is amazing
She rules
What's your stance on auto tune ? Thx
hey sam!! could you react to exo's killing voice? looking forward to your next reactions :)
Yeah, good call, at the beginning of the set he apologizes for his voice being messed up from the tour
Glad you’re back! I was starting to rewatch older videos hahah😢
Could you react to EXOs Killing Voice video? Would love to see your reaction ❤❤❤
You know, I don't like his voice. It's doesn't have a tonal quality that I want to emulate, but man, I love how you talk about his singing. It's so positive and so constructive at the same time. Really speaks to your character. Kudos for being a great human Sam.
Please react to Diana Ankudinova can’t help falling in love with you
🌻
do annenmaykantereit's tom's diner and toxic!
Sam - i think you are one of the few reactors who has not done any Ren stuff.
Hey Sam! Please react to asaf avidan - "love it or leave it" live at the acropolis! Thank you
He's mid-tour during this video so his voice is pretty tired, but he still sounds good!
How anyone could think this sounds good is way beyond me.
Please can you react to DIANA ANKUDINOVA .”Can’t help falling in love”, and “wicked games” 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Would love to hear your explanation of her voice. It’s super unique.
Yes! This 👆
Singer of the week in my world: Kihyun doing a song, Full Moon, from the Kdrama Tale of the Nine Tailed 1938 czcams.com/video/d9lGAOfDO9U/video.htmlsi=pNuVIrBDiYHSHjpo. I’m late to the game with the genre but I’m interested in the idea of a Korean pop style of singing. Also, watching to see if the genre of English language K-pop is going to explode as its own thing. Here’s another idea, how a woman can cover a man’s song or vice versa.
You were a great teacher years ago, but you’ve gotten even better. ❤ Hope I can take lessons again soon.
Suggestion for a reaction - "Creep" sung by random guy in the subway on the Guitaro5000 channel ("Play with Me"). He was hungover and not warmed up, but by the end I was blown away! cued link: czcams.com/video/OVeLgYVSfCA/video.htmlsi=KnqP74jLrwGwN1h3&t=192
hi 👋🏽
Hi lala
🤎🙏🦄✨️🍄😁
He did say he was on your and his voice was stressed....
Right, I guess I mean more of the specifics that touring entails
I love Posty❤❤❤
However, he seriously needs to quit smoking or he's totally going to ruin his voice. You can hear the difference between now and a few years ago.
Other than that… fucking beautiful ❤
Lesson: don't be to tight, and imitate what they do with their mouths. but really he is just a singer, and not great. the best ever is Freddie.
Id did not like his performance
I hate when his voice trembles (cringe)
wow, his singing is really bad imo. That was difficult to listen to. Internet opinions
Haha fair opinion! I still love it
You literally make 45k a year....lol
Not quite but not sure how that's relevant
