    Hey hi here's another Charlie Puth video only this time I figured we should finally maybe actually look at his actual music. Also please check out the merch if you're interested I'll love you forever, but also probably still will if you don't so that's ok too.

    • @kimmyjootron
      @kimmyjootron 4 ปีที่แล้ว +77

      Sydney Dumoit Actually anyone can do what Charles does believe it or not, it just takes a shit ton of practice not perfect pitch. Basically in relative pitch, instead of hearing the notes as its specific note, people with relative pitch can hear notes based on its function of the key its in. So for example even though he cant hear that a certain note is a C he can tell that its the 4th degree in the scale because of intervals. So with a really good relative pitch it can be pretty much as good as perfect pitch! Ive been playing piano for a couple years and have the ability to play things I hear as well (not as quick as charles of course but Im definitely getting there)

    Thank you so much for this. Being in the "pop" sphere I think that charlie puth is often passed over for his musicianship. This song has always been my favorite on the album because of the incredible level of detail put into into it. Thank you for making a video that showcases this. Charlie puth is one of the rare artists in the modern music industry that still cares for the craft of composition despite it being for mainstream consumption. This song showcases his true understanding of jazz and pop musical elements as well as his understanding of music in general.

    I’m kinda conflicted about Charlie. I think his musicianship is fantastic (obviously) and that it shows in the production and instrumentation of his songs, but I just feel that his lyrics are.....well, kinda basic. He’s talked before about how his lyric-writing is “literal” and “straightforward”....I just think the juxtaposition does himself a disservice and that some more lyrical creativity would take his music up a level!

    • @engvallfam
      @engvallfam 4 ปีที่แล้ว +74

    • @jinsory5582
      @jinsory5582 4 ปีที่แล้ว +22

      I think a large part of that really is intentional, Charlie probably isn't as much a lyrical genius as he is a producer and musician. Therefore I feel he gives more liberty to the music itself. I know he is a competent lyricist, but I feel that it's not as much an expression of his creative output as much as the rest of the music. Of course industry pressure is always there, hit songs don't get popular for their complexity, they do because of how much people have heard it, how 'fresh' it is to the eyes of the media, and how much marketing is put into it. The more complex the lyrics are the more people 'seem' to be alienated by it or dismiss it since at the end of it all, nearly all hit songs are songs you play at the club, in the car, or alone in your room because you're completely tuned out of the lyrics regardless.
      Of course this is not to say that lyrics with a larger or more-complex story behind them don't get awards or become hits, they do, but the complexity in the lyrics is usually a surprisingly-small factor of its success, but rather something people and the media throw around to praise this song whether or not its lyrics are truly meaningful.

Although many of Puth's songs are great in their own right, this song deserves this special treatment more than anyone, and I would hardly recommend any other of his songs more than this one.

    I've been listening to Voicenotes since it came out and it's so nice to hear a new perspective about the other tracks besides the title. Also, Charles is mindblowingly good at picking up the jazz solo! I couldn't even imitate that in my head

    So great to hear Charles pulling apart my favorite Charlie Puth song (That's putting it above so many that blow me away), BOY! When it first came out, I kept saying, "why isn't this a single……why isn't the world being exposed to the FULL CHARLIE PUTH?". Obvious! A bit too sophisticated for his pop audience. Still, that may be underestimating others who listen to this genre hungering for something as amazing as this! But most of all it's great to hear someone as talented as Cornell singing the praises of my favorite musician!

    Listens through the solo part probably less than 50 times and and totally nails it.
    I've really gotten into Charlie's music the last couple years after realizing how much of a musical enigma he is in modern pop music. "Boy" is one of my favorite songs of his. Just such a cool song musically

    Charles! Dude, your listening skills are amazing. Have you used any specific ear training exercises or routines? Or would you say your ability to quickly discern what you're hearing is a result of doing music at a high level for many years? For melodic lines, do you hear intervals or do you know the pitches after establishing the key? I'm working on building my skills and I'm curious how it works for you. Love your content!

    • @1337-Nathaniel

      Hey! I'm 9 months late with a comment, but I think a LOT of Charles' listening skills are coming from experience.
      When he finds the first note or chord, he can pretty reliability find the next note/chord he hears, by referencing what he hears against what he played before and which note/chord is most likely to follow it.
      (He explains this sorta in the Charlie Puth 'perfect pitch' video.)

  • @pradeepvincentmusic

      you can train your brain to hear intervals better... not saying you're gonna have "perfect pitch" as I see many people getting enamored with here on TH-cam... but most gospel musicians I know can hear intervals better than any other musicians I've been with because they rely on hearing to learn...

    I know this a jazz pianist reaction but as a singer I absolutely LOVE the vocals on this track. Puth isn't the best singer out there but the melodies he comes up with, the harmonies, the flow, is just absolute FIRE, so so good. You know its a great pop song vocally when you immediately want to try out the runs and harmonies that he does in a song. I know I have a lot of fun singing along to this song and trying all sorts of different harmonies.
    Also how cool is it that underneat that piano solo, the three part harmonies served as the base. So so good. This is my favorite song of his.

    This song and analysis brings me back to that time I went to his concert when he was touring in Canada and he totally had that jazz solo put there so he could just riff off whatever he felt like. I'm pretty sure he didn't riff what he wrote in the song, but it sounded great and I was so impressed how quickly a stadium went from hyped pop concert into a classy jazz concert because of his jazzy solo. He just went off on his keyboard and it was amazing.

    One of my favourite things about your videos is seeing how excited you get when first hearing a fantastic piece of music - it's pure unadulterated joy. Sadly, there's a lot of jealousy and backbiting in the music industry, so seeing your genuine appreciation for a fellow musician's work is really refreshing. Don't ever stop being you!
