This studio performance was by FAR the best Goyte and Kimbra have sounded on this song....especially Kimbra with her powerful and spot on harmony! Very well done!
And Gotye's raw vocals having slightly more of a rough tone on the higher notes is amazing. It's more polished in the official release, but live it's far more natural to me and I love it.
@@DB-ko6nb doing basic auto tune is industry standard. This is produced by a major studio, it has auto tune. Auto tune doesn't mean that it sounds like a robot, auto tune is a tool that pulls notes sharper or flatter based on the tools settings. She's flat a lot in the behind the scenes/cell phone footage, but not as much or pitch perfect in the final edited versions. They definitely 100% without a doubt used a degree of auto tune. If only because it's completely industry standard and this was recorded in an industry standard studio.
I think many of us can say that listening to them is addictive. Perfect together. Their voices and the emotions felt are so haunting, digs deep into the soul.
You might want to re-read my comment. They are both great singers. "Some" vocalist, will use their hands to guide them mentally & vocally. It's a rather useful technique for some singers. 🥂
Wh- What do you mean telling the other commenter to re-read the initial post... Not once did you say some. You said, and I quote, "True singers... will always use their hands to conduct their own voice!" You never said "some", you flat out made a comment saying you're basically not a true singer if you do not conduct your own voice. I understand (or hope) you meant the best in your comment, but imagine someone aspiring to be a singer or IS a singer reads that initial post and reads it blatantly. It could shater their confidence or make them think they have to do motions like that to be seen as a "True singer".
This song is sooo good that even though my heart complaints why there are not more like this from these two but deep down inside I never get bored of this song especially after learning everything about Gotye and Kimbra, making of this song and the aftermath. Gotye is the truest artist I have came to know in this era.
The fact that a person, who's chosen profession is singing, is actually capable of singing, and for that to be a particularly noteworthy thing, says a lot about the state of the art today
I would say the majority of pop artists can still sing but it's just that modern pop production is so overloaded with effects and stage trickery it is hard for an artist to really keep up with it live. And let's be honest, every modern pop album is autotuned and voices smoothened out to the point no natural voice could live up to it and then when an artist sings live they get torn to shreds for not sounding like the record.... Also, the current aesthetic is whisper voices, baby voices and fragile vocals, which are hard to do convincingly without technical aids.
Something so hypnotic about these 2. Perfect symphony. I cud listen to this song all day. They both have phenomenal voices n their passion shines through so clear. ❤
@@insideeffect6964I disagree. I think the two sound very similar to the point that the original and the autotuned version have very little differences. I think they can sing fine.
I can't believe I'm 76 years old and I still love this song. And I can never listen to it just once generally a minimum of eight repeats: average around 10, Max sometime around 20. I think the song resonates with so many people across so many age groups is because, who HASN'T had a relationship approximating what is described by the song?
That's why he quit. He knew that was the biggest hit he would ever have. I don't think he wanted that kind of fame. I think he wanted to just make music and a little money
Love gotye he's so underrated... she's got a great voice too..i loved this song from the very first time i heard it..."your hearts a mess" is another one of he's that i like very much....
He's not using auto-tuner. He's using auto-harmonizer. It plays the singer's voice in different pitches to give the appearance of multiple singers. It doesn't mean he can't sing.
Esa es la parte que más me gusta de la canción, la pasión que siente como suya las palabras que pronuncia … felicidades todo un don precioso quien tiene la habilidad de sacar su pasión de esa forma
The vocal talent of both is fantastic. Ive listed to her singing this with no musical backing and its brilliant. Plus its great to how much she loves that invisible frog.
one of few massively mainstream pop songs and artists I actually have respect for. And the fact that they actually recorded it together makes me respect them more.
There's a reason why that's usually true that the studio version is a lot better than any live version; you can mix and match and sort and find the best parts of 10 different takes and put them together. Look up how The Allman Brothers producer Tom Dowd put together the live version of In Memory of Elizabeth Reed live at the Fillmore. He stitched stuff together from several of the performances they did when they were at the Fillmore. So so basically in the studio you can do more than one take and save the best parts and you can have a dynamite producer who can do it all for you in terms of the mixing Etc. Tom Dowd along with Alan Parsons are probably among the finest producers ever to walk the surface of this Earth.
Singing is a subset of acting. It's acting to music. Otherwise people who are famous and have to play some of the same music for 40 years live in concert can still do it with the same feeling and emotion that they did when they first recorded it. And they can do this night after night year after year. That's where the acting comes in. And the better the singer is at it the more Soul they appear to have. This in no way denigrates what they do I am actually praising them for being able to do that and giving people the same experience 40 years down the road that they gave a one year after it was recorded
She has an excellent voice and she knows how to use the microphone.. you will notice many singers back away or move their head to the side to hit higher notes that they may not actually be able to hit but that's not cheating that is using their instrument just like any other musician
I think a lot of non-musicians think a band walks into a recording studio and then they run through the song and a couple times and then they do the final take and that's it. A lot of pop songs are as you know assembled from the best parts of several takes. I read that Tom Dowd stitched together several pieces from several different performances at the Fillmore to produce what we now think of as the definitive live version. When in actuality it's the definitive conglomeration. And believe me I'm not knocking the song, I have loved that song since I first heard it and I still listen to it probably dozens of times every year sometimes a dozen times in a row. Doesn't bother me at all that it was stitched together. That's showbiz.
About 5 years ago I ran into a video of The Rolling Stones putting together a song that in the beginning was just a rough idea. I wish I could remember the name of the song ,damn it that's what happens when you're 76. Anyway it was really interesting to see them come in day after day until they got it down to roughly the form that everyone remembers from the album. In the beginning it didn't sound at all like the finished song except for the lyrics. thing
The lengthy plug-in chain for Gotye's lead vocal included Antares' Auto-Tune - used only on a few words - two instances of Cranesong's Phoenix, two Waves Renaissance De-essers, a Renaissance EQ, and McDSP's Compressor Bank.
I always pictured her as a bigger lady, like an Adell or something, to see that voice coming from this little thing is crazy! very impressive, dead perfect pitch!
Even if autotune is being used, it is being used because it is difficult to sing in perfect tune while bringing out an emotion in singing. Look at the expressions both are bringing in their singing, you can feel the pain and sadness.
This song didnt use autotune, the full release uses vocal layering where they layer the same voice multiple times, i belive they did 5 layers for the final stufio release, but the plain vocal version with no layers is still amazingly incredible and a great show of vocal range

So did the boy
She has a tendency to go flat
"girl"
Gotye doesn't either , amazing voice live
She's flat. That's why they added auto tune.
Those backing vocal melodies.
Can't get enough.
No autotune needed by either one just good vocals from both of them. This song will never get old, he had to know this was gonna be the one!!!!
Nobody needs autotune
That's why he quit. He knew that was the biggest hit he would ever have.
I don't think he wanted that kind of fame. I think he wanted to just make music and a little money
Like everyone says.. voice stabilization, and slightttt Auto tune just for the pitches in all of this.
No question at all that she is a fantastic vocalist, she has an amazing voice
That gives me goosebumps, voices full of emotion and energy
