I recently got to see one of my favorite bands of all time LIVE for the first time... Talk about a 'bucket list' opportunity. They played nearly all my favs and it was amazing to see Gerard perform in person after all these years.
These are songs I've known for so many years... The ins and outs of how the melodies go... All the little singing nuances that I've become attached to over time... So hearing Gerard nod to my own version of nostalgia was incredibly meaningful. Man... did the band deliver.
This video was inspired by my recent live concert opportunity. I took footage of Teenagers live and we get to dive into the studio multitracks and go back and forth a bit between his studio and live approach. ....YAY :) !! Enjoy!!
This was my theme song in high school. I remember once I had a few friends over for my birthday, and my parents decided to have a nice marital dispute right in front of everybody. So I kind of retreated to my room with my friends, and we all just sat awkwardly. So to break the tension, I started playing the guitar, and singing this song. One by one my friends joined in and by the second chorus we were all singing at the top of our lungs. Little moments like that remind me how much joy music can bring us, and how it can bring people together.
Man, your ability to explain vocal techniques in an understandable way is one of a kind among singing coaches I’ve seen anywhere. Love the channel, keep it up bro!
i was waiting for more videos of mcr im so happy
Glad to be able to do more!
I love comparing singers approach between live and in studio. Not necessarily in a “awe he didn’t do it right live” sorta way, but in a “ok so they dropped it a half step, and he’s singing this one note lower here to save his voice for the next line” sorta way. You should do more stuff like this 😁
I am in need of a breakdown for every song off of this album. Love your work Chris!
So great that you got to go and see them live! I was fortunate enough to see them live earlier this year too, and it was an incredible experience. I always love the way you break down these songs, totally agree with the points you make about not being so concerned to hit the pitch- Gerard's ability to add character and personality to his vocals is part of what makes MCR so interesting- as usual, thanks for explaining how we can adapt this to our own vocals!
That's so cool that guys invited you to a gig after your video! Your explanations are very understandable for people who don't know enough about singing. I still believe someday you will make a video about the song Mama by mcr because i think there are many interesting things with the G's voice 🖤
That one is on my list!
fun fact: first, This song was recorded in the haunted house.
Second, This song is catchy (including the chorus) but the lyrics are referring to the school shootings.
third, the piano kicked in on the second chorus and the rest of the sections but you can hear clearly on the last chorus.
fourth, The bass guitar slides down Build up with the drums in verses.
5th, the vocal on the chorus with the word "Pose" is Ray Toro.
6th, you can hear the shaker, The other different percussions in the verses are buried in the mix. only the tambourine and the vibraslap kicked in at every chorus.
7th, the chord progression on the verse is actually based on the song "Woogie boogie".
8th, The fill before the chorus and before the solo is so complex and syncopated but Bob Bryar did a great job. Bob Bryar also plays the ghost notes on the snare while using the cowbell on the third chorus.
9th, there are edited version of this song (Especially the MTV versions) they censored swear words, Drugs and weapons on the 2 verses and every chorus.
10th this version is from Guitar Hero Warriors of Rock as an DLC. Guitar hero 2 did have the cover version of it.
wow!! what an awesome experience being invited to a show by mcr!!!
At the end of the second chorus it sounds like he is just having a blast
man yes!
So cool you were invited to their concert. Great video on the difference of studio and live vocal. Thank you for sharing. Loving all the videos.
This is so awesome. I hope more artists start sharing stems like this.
Also.. hteat to see a talented voice cosch break all this intricate contrnt doen! Keep it inlove it!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH CHRIS. I love this song so much!!!
I love that you dug into the production of the other instruments in this video! Obviously, love the vocal focused thing, but it’s really interesting to hear your take on the production of the other elements as well!!
So, glad I came across your channel this morning. ☕️ Subscribed!
Welcome aboard!
It’s a fun song, kinda sounds like a showstopper musical theatre number including the style it’s recorded in.
12:28 great line; I can picture him in the bathroom after breaking the mirror scream/crying it at the ceiling in a semi-manic almost deranged trauma-smile kind of way
I adore these videos and you are excellent at this. Just bummed because this is in my bottom 3 My Chem songs of all time.
imo the coolest format here on your channel, great video!
Glad you enjoy it!
Man oh man. I just love your videos buddy. So much, I signed up for your class. I enjoy all of it so much! Thank you for doing what you do, Chris!
Awesome man! Glad to have you in the course!
If you got Gerard in studio I'd lose my mind!! You should looks at their song sleep... It's a masterpiece
Always up for MCR
not only are you super fuckin helpful, you’re also super talented man. It’s so cool they saw you and invited you! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks! I agree... was a great time!
I was in the pit at this show!
A M A Z I N G
Top 5 best nights of my life.
THIS IS THE SONG THAT GOT ME INTO MCR!!!! LEZXGOOOOOOOOOOO
I’d love to see a breakdown of Sleep from the same album
I wish you can analyse MCR's Helena next :) I'm learning a lot from these analysis videos.
Can you please do this same concept but with pierce the veil’s song “stay away from my friends”? The vocal tracks are crazy in that song and I’d love to hear you analyze them
I'm with you on this! This is a great song but I doubt he'll be able to find a studio multi track for it 😔
I would love to see you cover a band called artifex perero, specifically their time in place album. They're a bit obscure but they have VERY strong vocals which i would love to see dissected as it were.
When Chris gets annoyed with the censored parts: "Dumb." Ha ha ha ha ha! (9:55)
I really like these videos
So glad! :)
I love his voice gerard way
YES
Chris, how familiar are you with Greg Puciato from the Dillinger Escape Plan fame (I loved your Mike Patton video btw)? I would LOVE to see your analysis of Puciato's singing techniques - he is an absolutely phenomenal vocalist.
chris you are ripped bro
Don't know if you still do the singing in style ofs but i think it'd be cool to see you cover the guy from leprous if you haven't already. Super unique and interesting voice
you should make a video about anthony green sometime, i just started getting into his stuff and his voice is just insane, also he recently starting singing for a new band called ls dunes which has frank iero on guitar
Watching this makes me want a breakdown of either The Diary of Jane by Breaking Benjamin or Simplest Mistake by Seether SO DAMN BADLY.
Keep up the stellar content, my guy! We’re all lucky to have you on this platform.
I've done a few breaking benjamin vids. check out my "in the style of" playlist :) I have done som seether too but not not simplest mistake yet. great idea!
@@chrisliepe word! I’m not the most skilled YT researcher and I figured that you would kindly let me know if I was asking for material you already had out there.
Simplest Mistake is the most slept on Seether tune out there. Criminally undervalued. Get yourself in a brooding, disaffected headspace (solely for science) and give it a listen.
You should compare it with a 2006 or 2007 live performance, his voice has changed over the years.
Could you do more of a mixing analysis of his voice?
Love these videos. Hoping to see some more of blink-182 or Angels and Airwaves multi-tracks!
More to come!
Absolutely love your videos on MCR, great one as usual! A few thoughts:
1. The high background vocals ("pose") are probably MCR's lead gutarist, Ray Toro - he does most of their backing vocals live (except for screaming which would be the rhythm guitarist Frank Iero), and it's astonishing what he can do vocally while also playing the guitar (they do however switch up guitar sections for live performances so that it's Frank who plays melody and Ray can focus on the vocals). Take a look at Famous Last Words from AOL sessions (czcams.com/video/QTX2U-sDeyU/video.html) or Mama from 2022 tour (the Newark show on 9/21 was a great example of that, the "we all carry on" at the end that's sung by Liza Minelli in the studio version... just wow - czcams.com/video/W1SwRfgeuVM/video.html at 4:35 and onwards), or this section from Life on the Murder Scene: czcams.com/video/x12pRZj9jFY/video.html to get a taste of what Ray does for MCR vocals.
2. I'm not sure it's completely fair to call this a studio vs live vocals comparison - there seems to be an enormous difference between Gerard's live performances back in the day vs this tour - he's hitting and holding high notes much easier these days, and while it's still very emotional, it seems almost gentle at times which was nowhere present before. I'd love to see you compare them one day,! The last show of this tour, Corona Capital in Mexico, was professionally streamed, so there are good quality recordings available that could be great for that - or it's been hinted they'll come out with a live album next year :)
(edit: links)
That floaty background vocal on "pose" and elsewhere is Ray Toro, right? does anyone know?
Somebody else commented that it was in fact Ray
I just found your channel and I love it cuz Music is my EVERYTHING! Do you do any Rap? One Love bruv ❤️🎵💜🤘🖤💯💯💯♠️
Have not done any rap yet, thanks for enjoying the channel!
Hell yeah !!
!! :)
If we're speaking of character and matching live and studio sound, listen to Pixies RockPalast 2022 live show on youtube. It'a a 2 hour show, they are in their late fifties and they sound exactly as perfect as in their 80's and 90's classic studio albums. Frank Black has never sounded that great live for the past several decades.
♡♡♡
Thank you 😊
Very fascinating
How about Ben from Billy Talent ...?
Great suggestion!
i love how mad he got when the edited version didn’t say sh1t
❤
:)
As a massive My Chem (and Gerard in general) fan since ‘05, I have never been able to pinpoint why I love Gerard’s vocals so much. I never made the connection to Freddie and now it makes perfect sense!
When is he doing "Mama" by Them?
Do this is how I disappear
Where do you get the multitracks from?
I got these from a friend... They originally came from the "rock band video game" but I'm not sure where you can get them publicly. you might have to make them from the game.
@@chrisliepe Cool ,thanks. Awesome video!!
Fl studio this program ?
Logic Pro X
@@chrisliepe Thanks!
Super late but my guy, they have two guitarists - it's not necessarily a double, it's two performances independent of one another.
Comment for da algorithm
Streak count: 156
I have to be honest, this was (and probably still is) my least favorite MCR song. And I'm a massive MCR fan. I guess its always been a little boring and not as interesting to me.
But this video as given me a new appreciation for the song. Although it's probably still my last favorite song by them, I definitely don't dislike it as much and will probably listen to it again
Almost like they are.....EMO!
Great analysis.
I saw them twice in their height - that concert footage you showed sounds like a shit show.
Sorry man. They were awesome - and no, they did not key down for the shows I saw.
