  • Thank you so much Christopher for sponsoring this video! If you would like to guarantee exactly what Lolli’s next reaction video on a live stream will be, click this link: www.thefairyvo...
    In this video, I react for the first time to the English-American band Spacehog performing “In the Meantime”. I analyze their amazing performance, explain and demonstrate Royston Langdon's vocal techniques and I'll tell you what I think made it so great. This is an amazing tune and I am so glad I finally reacted to it!

    Hello, gorgeous! I'm Lolli, your Fairy Voice Mother. I am a voice teacher & vocal anatomy nerd specialising in contemporary techniques. I have a degree in vocal performance, and I am studying for a masters degree in voice pedagogy. I sing all the time in styles such as pop, jazz, rock, metal, soul, Hindustani, Carnatic and I am constantly learning and practicing new vocal skills. I just bloody love singing. It's my favourite thing in the whole world, and because I love you, I want you to sing too. I believe everyone can sing, and my mission with this channel is to break down techniques that are so often portrayed as something to be exclusively accessed by people with a special talent. Well. Special talents can be learnt, and I am here to teach them to you.
    For voice lessons, workshops and video submissions please check out my website www.thefairyvo...
    I'm so excited to be a part of your singing journey, It's one that truly never ends.
    Love you forever,
    The Fairy Voice Mother x

    One of the sickest basslines of the 90's! This is a classic.

    This one came out around my junior or senior year in high school. Even though it wasn't the style I was into at the time, this song was an instant favorite from the first time I heard it. It has stuck with me ever since and is one the best songs of the 90s for me. It is a never skip track.

    As a drummer I love watching musicians with other instrument specializations analyze music to see where we overlap and where we differ on our perspectives. I didn't think I would ever appreciate someone approaching the vocal perspective the same way, but you proved me wrong.
    I quite enjoyed it. You got a new sub out of it.
    And the fact that the lead singer is able to manage that incredible bass part along with those vocals is absolutely brilliant.

    Thank you Christopher. Oddly enough about 2 years ago I rediscovered this song after approximately 4 years of randomly trying to find this song through internet searches.
    I drove my wife and kids crazy talking about the song from the 90s that I remembered loving but couldn't remember anything about it. It randomly played on a 90s playlist one day and I about lost my $h*t. Great record!

    Way back when, back when I was young and living my former life, I worked night shift. My partner and I would go to the office at the end of shift to finish papers and take a breath, and turn on VH1 (when they played music).
    This is one of the songs that was on rotation.
    But, the best was, we’d get off at 6am. Days would get on at 6 but may not go back to the office.
    They’d turn on the TV expecting to hear the news but get hit with stuff like this at full volume.
    Good morning, enjoy your day and see ya in 12 hours.
    Cheers!

    So I got the thought watching this that "oh, these guys have to be Brits," so I looked up the band. I read "Spacehog was a band formed in New York City in 1994" and think "oh, they're Americans." Then I see the next bit of the sentence that reads "by four Englishmen." I just gave up and gave a deadpan 4th wall break stare into a non-existent camera.

    It is a very sexy song. Deserves a spot somewhere in-between stuff like "Stir It Up" and stuff like "Wonderful Tonight." Well, no. That doesn't make any sense. I don't know. There's a coherent thought in here somewhere, trying desperately to escape, but he has lost his struggle.
