not like the kinds of variations you see in advanced metal
which song vry_o
but structurally it's there if you pay attention
this has more in common with reign in blood slayer
than it does garth brooks
which is pretty funny considering
the Don McLean guy sings good
real good
he sung that chipper song American Pie
that was him?
yes, that's his most popular song
he needs to stop sliding
..pretty much his only song in fact
if he simply fixed that one thing I'd give him 10/10
like... if we're actually going to talk singing for a sec, it boils down to this
there is classical singing, which is master race but is essentially technical rather than expressive
so all good singers fundamentally do the same thing as classical singers, but what defines them is their divergences in technique
in this guy's case he likes to slide a lot, as one major difference
so really when assessing a singer I basically ask, "does this person have the capacity for classical singing?" and if the answer is yes, "Do their divergences from it help or harm their sound/expression?"
and then there's little stuff like a person's natural timbre but I generally don't hold it against people
@Deleted User 57835c2c https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PE5sJy44s-Y what do you think about this guy?
this guy also keeps his soft palate a bit more tense to try to sound more like a tenor than a baritone
evidently a powerful singer, but makes choices i wouldn't think to
which is fine, I have no problem with it
YES
works well in my opinion
along with the steel guitar, totally changes the emotion of the song
well yeah, that is another thing I tend to judge on
how good do they play their accompaniment
if they are going all alexi laiho and their singing is B+ then I forgive it
that's actually my opinion of dave matthews actually
Home on the Range [stands] ;_;7 🌻
his guitar playing is surprisingly intricate and on point, so I forgive some vocal faults
either way that don mclean guy sounds more likely than not to have put away 8 hour days working on his voice

what do you think about this guy?
oops wrong link
h/o
falsetto should have been way more common
yes
