I always found D.O's singing technique incredibly self-aware as he knows exactly where to expend himself and where not to, giving as smooth a listening experience as possible. He's a perfect blend of talent meeting honesty and discipline.
Oh I like how you phrased that - D.O. does indeed give talent + honesty + discipline
could not have said it better myself
lesson: we exols are just really lucky all of those vocalists are in the same group. love all of them ❤
I agree, they all are just so good. Out of the three main vocalists, I may prefer Baekhyun, D.O and then Chen but it's seriously so hard to rank which one is "better" because they're all so different so it just comes down to preference and if I look at their solo music, Baek and D.O are my favorites and I listen to their solo music the most especially Baekhyun's because his music is right up my alley but it's unimportant because all of these ridiculously talented people are in one group and I'm just so grateful and lucky my friend introduced them to me 12 years ago 🥰
Same thoughts❤😊
Yes All of them vocals are so unique & Beautiful but sounds soo Good Together❤
If you think about it their voices kind of resemble their superpowers. Chen voice is thunderous and hit you like a lightning. Baekhyun's feels like it can illuminate you, is bright and warm. D.O's is strong, powerful and attract you like gravity.
Chanyeol's feels like smoke and embers. Like Hot chocolate and a warm blanket in a winter's night. Suho's can be powerful like a waterfall or peaceful like a calming river. Lay's voice is healing. Kai's voice transport you somewhere sexy. Xiumin's is sometimes like majestic icebergs afloat or sweet like ice cream. Sehun's is like a warm breeze on an autumn afternoon. 😊
I believe the current ranking of voices by professionals put them as Chen, D.O, Baekhyun, Chanyeol, Suho, Lay, Xiumin, Kai, Sehun. Chanyeol and Suho tend to be put together in the 4th position.
Exactly 💯 what I think every time
Omo my heart was also feeling this Whenever I heard their voice. ❤
Wow! What an analogy!
their vocals are all so different tho its so hard to rank , at this point id say its down to personal preference,
Yeah, I think you're right
@@alongfortheridereactsI've seen professional vocal coaches trying to rank the main vocalists and it was nearly impossible. DO and Baek are so talented but very different in their preferable techniques, Chen is technically the most skilled, but it's like an iota more than the first two. So, it all comes down to their voice tones and whose ear likes which tone 😅
D.O. ❤❤❤
D.O. can sing effortlessly
Kyungsoo voice 🥹
D.O. My Favorite Singer Tone In K-Pop
That's why Those 3 are main vocal of EXO😅❤❤
D.O. is a natural talent I believe. I love all the members so much but there is something so special about him! 😊😊
Luv D.O vocals❤❤
just watch d.o. act~~~ he will blow your mind~~~ the man can literally do anything~~~
thank you for recognizing D.O's voice.. Please make a reaction to his Expectation album🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Love them all, but Chen, D.O. and Lay are my biases. Chen have fiercing voice while D.O's has warm voice. They have different style and tone and i love them both.
D.O.: sing as high as you should😂
Baekhyun: sing as high as you can😊
Chen: as high as you sing, I will be higher than you.😂🎉
Chen's lower register is amazing too!
that's why D.O's voice is most of reactors fav. coz he is so crazyy
Please react to D.O. lee mujin service ❤
They already reacted to it, but its in their patreon bcoz it got blocked in youtube
EXO is a gift to the people. Vocal dynamics that make your ears/heart happy. They cleanse you, purify.
Sehun and kai were literally teenagers when they debuted. Sehun had a noticeable lisp back then and wore braces to correct it. I think that's why he got so few lines in their early songs. Most of his one liners are iconic tho.
Kai and DO are my fave voices in kpop, there's just something special in their tone and delivery that gets me ❤
D.O es único gracias por la reacción
D. O.=Vocal Riffs & Runs & Vocal Growl❤
Baekhyun=Pharyngeal consonant & Falsetto & Mix voice❤
Chen=Balanced Mixed Sound & Marginalization & Closure Technology(He has a high pitch, but in fact he is good at bass😂)❤
Finally, I would like to say that SM😮 was very fortunate before because they had these three people.🎉
It should be said that there are 9 EXO members😊
D.o ❤❤❤❤
Things I love
- SeKai contemporary dance break + body rolls in an acoustic set because why not?
- Kai’s warm honey tone and sexy vibrato and that sexy stare… come on underrated vocal rnb prince!!!
- Sehun with his one solid line in What If is enough to show us he can sing… his voice sounds so gentle and comforting… thankfully he got more lines in later albums
- genius Lay who cant read sheet music but can play something soon as he hears it, plus the charisma and stage presence mygoddd… alien level of talent
- Chanyeol doesnt do basic ass chords, this is extraordinary playing, this is some technical skills bitches bow down and the vocals main vocal level okay?!
- Chen’s angelic tone and angelic smile… heavenly… yes I agree, he seems so grounded and normal when in fact he is a superstar
- Baekhyun’s crazy vocal gymnatsics combined with that playfulness and cheekiness… staying present in the moment and always interacting with the audience and his members… one of the best performers ever
- Suho suho suho… he sounds almost like an instrument, a harp? His voice is so so clean and pure… and his face is ridiculously perfect 😂
- Xiumin’s super unique tone you can always tell it’s him… and the eyes that stare thru the camera… you can feel his joy on stage…
- my love D.O. there really is nothing to say… he makes me feel all the feels… For me he is the best vocalist of our generation
I watched it hundreds of times. The amazement never fades
This video of EXO's acoustic session is a clip from their EXO Planet #3 EXO’rdium concert in Japan -- notice how the titles of most of EXO's concerts always use EXO in the title in some way.
What's notable about their "Lady Luck" performance, where you see Chanyeol put down the guitar and become the first one to get up and sing, was the fact that Chanyeol is one of the main rappers of EXO. So, this just demonstrates how ALL of the EXO members are amazing singers, even the rappers.
Yes, this performance is from their Tokyo Dome concert. The Tokyo Dome is one of the largest concert venues in Japan and there is an unwritten rule that in order to be allowed to hold a concert there, you have to be able to fill the place to capacity, so there are probably close to 55,000 fans in that audience.
SM Entertainment artists and groups such as EXO, TVXQ, SHINee, Super Junior, BoA, etc. are so popular in Japan that the concert promoters actually ask SM when they want to hold their next concert there because they know they will have no problem selling out in a matter of seconds -- EXO literally holds the record for the fastest sold-out concert at 0.2 seconds -- and they will most likely have to hold multiple day concerts to accommodate the number of fans who want to attend.
This concert was in 2016, so there were 9 members in EXO at this time.This was the last concert tour where Lay was able to participate because of all the political issues between Korea and China.
As you know, Kai, Lay and Sehun are the main dancers of EXO -- as well as some of the best dancers in the industry -- and they also happen to be the members that often have the fewest lines in a lot of EXO's songs, so in concert you will often see them performing solo dances. If Lay wasn't playing the guitar during this acoustic session, he probably would have been up there dancing with Kai and Sehun. (If you notice, the main dancers are the only ones with black pants on. The other members all have white pants. If you continue to watch this concert you will see in the next set of songs why the main dancers are dressed differently. ;D)
Fun fact: The numbers on the back of all the members' shirts are significant. As you may have noticed, you will often see them wearing those numbers on their shirts in MVs or in their "Cream Soda" dance practice, etc. because they are special numbers chosen by each of the members.
For example:
> Suho's number is 1 because as the leader he is No. 1 and he was the first one to be made a member of EXO.
> Kris -- a former member of EXO-M (EXO's Mandarin Chinese sub-unit) that left EXO in 2014 -- his number was 00 because he was the leader of EXO-M (It was said that Suho was the mom of the group and Kris was the dad and when you combine 1 and 00 it becomes 100 or 100% complete as leaders.)
> Xiumin's number is 99, which the reason is a little complicated -- 88 is morse code for XOXO, which is shorthand for hugs and kisses, or it can also mean EXO like their album title XOXO. Plus, during EXO's "Wolf" MV era in 2013, which is when the idea of their numbers was first developed, Xiumin's teaser promoting their "Wolf" comeback was the 11th teaser released, so 88+11= 99.
> Luhan -- a former member of EXO-M, who left the group in 2014 -- chose number 7 because his favorite soccer player's number is 7.
> Lay is 10 because he was born in October and also in Chinese there is a saying that uses the word 10 and it means perfection, so it's a play on words.
> Baekhyun is 4 because 4th grade was when he started to get interested in becoming a singer.
> Chen's number is 21 (Sept. 21) because it's his birth date.
> Chanyeol's number is 61 because his nickname growing up was Park Chanho, who is a famous Korean basketball player, and his jersey number is 61.
> D.O.'s number is 12 because it represents his birth date (Jan. 12) and it also stands for 12 members of EXO.
> Tao -- a former member of EXO-M, who left the group in 2015 -- was 68 because 6+8=14 and the 14th was the date his "Wolf" MV teaser was released.
> Kai's number is 88, and his reason is also a little more complex. As mentioned before, 88 stands for XOXO (hugs and kisses/EXO), which was the name of their "Wolf" album, etc. But Kai chose the number because H is the 8th letter in the English alphabet and HH stands for hip-hop, which he used to represent the fact that he is the main dancer.
> Sehun is 94 because he was born in 1994.
Oh thankyou. Iam an baby exo-l I only started listening to kpop because d.o and exo. But i always wondered how they got their numbers and what they represented 😅. But thankyou again for telling us 🥰.
The different tones of voices is one of the many things that makes Exo special. Thank you again for all the Exo content.
This is the reasons why i stand for EXO not only because visual & humble personality, because members have unique vocals & can blend together very well❤
D.o.
EXO was doing killing voice way before killing voice and doing so in front of a live audience.
All of EXO are just gorgeous looking people - I might be biased but personally I think they are the best looking group in kpop.
Poor Chen has had some harsh backlash which he totally doesn’t deserve. But I feel like they might have been referring to Chen’s vibes more than looks. He has less of a “Pop Star vibe” & more of a laidback, honest & down to earth aura (much like D.O.). Perhaps he gives this vibe because of his life outside of being a celebrity, being a father & a family man.
This acoustic session really shows D.O.'s immense talent off. I remember how the music industry called Chen one of the most talented singers in the business so that he was often called the best in EXO. Now, most point out Baekhyun's tremendous solo success. However, the best to me comes down to an emotional response and that changes with songs and biases. Enough to say that EXO is a group blessed with an excess of talent in vocals.
Thinking of milestones, you are close to ready for the emotional hijack 'Promise', a song which is beautiful on one level, but so special for EXO-L, especially those that were around when it was released.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SO SO SO SO SO MUCH FOR THIS!!!
I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our vocal kings❤
OMG I never click so fast 😅 my favorite session in Exo'rdium concert.. so happy that u guys react to it 👏🏼👏🏼
I love how each one of them at some point in this make me go "wow." ... And those rankings of the vocal line? They are too different to rank, I agree. It's just amazing that his one group gets to have all that high-grade and varied talent.
PLEASE REACTION LEE MUJIN SERVICE EP.81 FT DO KYUNSOO.
D.O EXO
We did, it got blocked so that's over on our patreon xx
04:22 i do the same expression every single time i hear D.O.
Also the song they started off with, My Lady, sounds super wholesome. But, the choreo is OMG 🫣🫣🫣. It’s the og sexy EXO dance, wayyyy before Love Shot, The Eve or even Playboy and Artificial love
(4 of Exo M start it off and then Exo K joins in, it is part of our glorious history and a cultural lesson, so do watch 😂)
czcams.com/video/zTYAqE6Snr0/video.htmlsi=jCL_J82OY2Fa0s7M
Kerry blankly looks at Simon…meow 😂😭❤️❤️❤️
I'm surprised that no one wrote in the comments about the incredibly magnificent continuation of this speech!!!!!! 😳 "EXO - ONE AND ONLY + STRONGER" It literally has everything: Incomparable dance performance from Lay, Kai and Sehun, incredible vocals from Dio, Chen, Baekhyun and Suho, just a delight in one word. You definitely need to watch it! 😍
P.S. There will be a performance in the water, just imagine Lay, Kai and Sehun wet🤯😏💦🔥
They liked the Sehun and Kai dance in this one. They should watch the One and Only water dance.
When you were laughing at Sehun it reminded me of the acoustic performance where he dropped the mic. He hardly ever has lines but in one performance(I think if was Growl) he actually forgot to sing. The look D.O.gave him was epic.
I prefer EXO live! Its amazing, its art
EXO's most loved medley 💕
I understand how you feel everytime you finished watching their live performances HAHHAHAAHA i've been in that phase before until now actually❤😂
My bias always nailed it, as well as exo members, thank u guys❤
They have completely different voices, it sometimes depends on who moves me the most in the particular performance or song. But it just depends on preference, i for one love all their voices and can't be bothered to pick a favorite. And Sehun actually has a beautiful voice, it's just unfortunate he gets so few lines, that we can't hear most if it. In the SC albums, he does sing a little more and also the newer albums like DFTF, obsession and the latest one.
And i like you both 😂
What if hits hard , especially when you know the lyrics, its a sad song, a what could have been song
“The camel is my heart” 😂😂😂 Simon I love you 💕
Love this acoustic medley. Thanks for listening!
This is one of my favorite presentations, thanks for your reaction guys! As for Sehun I want to tell you a little bit about what I know and think, we know that in Korean groups everyone has their own role, their position from the beginning was as a rapper, dancer and mainly "Visual" of the group, so you will find that in the first albums The distribution of lines in terms of singing are not favorable to him, but in concerts they have different genre sections, so if you see a full concert you can see much more of his participation. On the other hand, at the beginning of his career, we know that Sehun was not very sure of his singing and dancing skills, that's why he decided to have a dog companion, and so "Vivi" (who is the most well-known dog of the group) began to be part of his life, you saw it in the guide and also appears in their MV "On Me." Finally we know that our Sehun is very talented and has been improving all his skills over the years, in the last albums you can find more of his participation in the vocal lines, And we also know that in the last few years he's been taking singing lessons, even Baekhyun said that he asked him for advice, he was also taking guitar lessons, so we're going to wait for that solo album when he gets out of military service, which will be amazing. 💖
Also he's in a subunit with Chanyeol. EXO-SC.
Kyungsoo / D.O. in thumbnail is ❤❤❤. 🙂
I can't believe you haven't seen this yet 😮
What a coincidence! I've watched two versions of their acoustic session today before I've seen this, and I've watched it multiple times in the past. It's wonderful. I just love it. Their singing - ALL of it - is so seductive. I've heard that people think it's lip-synced but of course, it's not. I absolutely refuse to choose a bias out of the two of you!
This is my fav! They got 3 of the BEST voices in KPOP and other good vocalists too! I can watch them at a concert just sitting like this with a guitar and their voices alone.❤❤❤
Vocal kings!🥰❤️👑
Sehun: "you know my name girl " is my iconic line song in kop industry😂
This is the magic of seeing EXO live.... and this is just one little slice of the show.
The variety in their tones and styles of singing is one of my favourite things about EXO (and many SM groups). They are deliberately put together to bring different colours and tones to the vocal blend of EXO and the group would sound different without any one of them.
i think it’s impossible to rank vocal ability between the holy trinity~ it’s just comes down to which style of voice and singing style you prefer~~~ if you try to rank them you’ll be here forever~~
I'm glad you guys finally get to see this. Now i think it's high time for you to watch the "white noise, playboy, thunder, artificial love" live 🤭 prepare yourselves 😂
i think they have done it already few months back
I love Exo so much, that's all I wanted to say 🥺❤
There's no biases in EXO they're all going to give you something a flavor of their own
.....
EXO, we love you❤
Yay!! I was waiting for you to get to this.
Please also watch “EXO’s Amazing Vocals” 🙏🏻
This one of exo's bold n gold performence.. ❤❤❤
I just want to share cause you mentioned Chen about being like a normal guy, I happen to watch this one video saying that in person Chen is so beautiful and so ethereal that the camera can't capture. He saw him in person and that's the very shocking scene when he saw Chen up close and in person❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍 I would love to see all of them in person too❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for reacting to this!!!~ FINAAAALLLLYYY!!!!~ I've been waiting for this. Hoping to see more EXO content. Love your reactions guys!
I MISS MY EXO
Tokyo dome it has capa city of 55,000 seats
I love this I don't know how much I listen them❤
Them 3 vocalists complete each others. They back up for each others flaws.
Baekhyun - He is great in his 5th octave, like his falsettos are to die for. He is the most versatile king
D.O. - Never found any vocalist close to his riffing skills/melismas and his voice tone is eargasm. He is my most favourite singer, the most complete singer for me.
Chen - He is what i call magestic singer, has such a wide range, power , natural unique vibrato. I am left mesmerized by him.
Amo EXO com todas as forças porque são incriveis talentosos e extremamente trabalhadores (com toda a bagagem e experiência que eles têm, ainda assim têm aulas, treinam arduamente) são profundamente respeitosos com o seu público e só entregam jóias em forma de músicas... Meu utt é Kyungsoo (D.O.) ele, além de tudo o que eu falei, tem algo diferente, em gastronomia a gente diz "umami" o quinto sabor que torna algo único... Ele é assim❤
Tokyo Dome holds 50,000 🙂
Edit: Baekhyun just finished his first 2 stops on his tour. Literally the past 2 days. Look up some fancams, he was absolutely incredible. He has sold out each tour date so far, its bound to be an amazing tour!
up
i'm not an official EXOL but from what i've read over the years, one of the fandom's biggest complaints was Sehun not getting as many lines as he ought to. honestly, it is hard to divide lines equitably, especially in a group where there are very strong vocalists. i'm just glad that Sehun is finally getting more vocal exposure in their albums. 😊i hope he's given more singing lines in future releases.
I feel blessed every time I watch this acoustic medley~
Thanks for the Exo reaction ♡︎
Just 1.5 more years till we get EXO as a group back finally 😭😭😭😭
I miss seeing them together so much.
Please react to Baekhyun solo Asia tour Lonsdaleite fancams if possible 😍
O M G
crying for ot9
Omg finally!!!❤❤❤ I love this so so much and rewatch it far too often!
De mis presentaciones favoritas de EXO❤!!!!
I through you guys already see this, its so many videos, I am start to be crazy
Why in my world though you reacted thiiis 😭😭😭 you still have sooo much to react actually
Exo ❤❤❤❤
This is the concert in Japan, there's a slightly difference between this medley and the one from Korea, in Seoul they were much more relaxed and funny and the medley was longer , with LAY's solo part too
In general, the korean fans received always a special treatment , I mean they saw EXO's playful and chaotic side, but also more skin ( Sehun and Baekhyun's nacked torso 😁)
Finally! 😂❤❤❤
Thank you for the videos
❤❤exo
OMG YESSSSSS
D.O. left SM，he is using his real name Doh Kyungsoo。 His new album is out on May7。 Check out his duet with AKMU Sulhyun，also KBS LEEMUJIN'S ep81⋯⋯no words just 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
❤❤❤
The thing a lot of people don’t notice is sehun singing low notes a lot the times but they don’t highlight it that much and of course bcz it’s underneath the main tones it’s easy to miss but adds so much to the performance
Sehun in earlier days had some of the worst line distributions i have ever seen in kpop. In some songs he did the E.X.O only in others he only said “yeah” cmon” and some “ahh” then bounced. It was like that up until the Tempo/kokobop promotions.😂
Chanyeol give me warm feeling.. Like I can share anything with him..he give me a true friends feeling. By the way Chanyeol and me both share the same birthday month also the same MBTI 😅
Stan exo for a better life 🥰
they have different vocal characters, but they are all good
The holy trinity are all so incredible and make up 3 of the top 4 best vocalists in 3rd gen (and beyond). Technique wise Chen is a slight cut above the other two, he has incredibly well developed support spanning two octaves and he has the best lower range of any tenor in kpop, although it isn’t showcased as much as it should be. Baekhyun and Kyungsoo are pretty level with each other, Kyungsoo has the better mixed range (support) and agility while Baekhyun has the better lower and higher register. All of them compliment each other so well, Kyungsoo with his runs, Baekhyun with his head voice and falsettos, and Chen with his massive belts. I will never get tired of listening to them sing!!
Thats my standard
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
King EXO❤❤❤
Baek’s voice is my favorite
Hello, can I see your reaction to THE IMPACT OF EXO - This is Who EXO REALLY Is. (Mini Deep Dive).
As for their vocal ability, I'm no expert, but I think because D.O. is a fabulous actor (he really is), he can put an extra element of meaning and emotion into his singing. Baekhyun is Korea's anthem singer and "anthem singer" suits him well because he's able to project and hits the loud, dramatic notes beautifully. I've always thought that Chen was the ultimate singer though, because of not only his range but also his ability to hold a note impossibly long. Then there's his tone, which is so different from everyone else. If I had to rank them, which is impossible, I'd rank Chen first but I'd be at a loss to choose the second place.
Please react to Twice on Killing Voice! You won't regret it 😌
