I have to admit that I had some bias to SSY by visual. With mask, she sounds fantastic. But Sohyang is special and she has some extra factor above all. I like her hand gestures also.
This comparison right away shows how great Son Seungyeon is. 40 years old who has been singing maybe half of her life vs the 25 year-old Sonnet. Thank you very much. I didn't need confirmation that SSY is great- still thank you. 😍
B4: tie C5: Sohyang, that note is just so resonant C#5: Tie D5: Seungyeon Eb5: Tie with a slight edge to Sohyang. This Hug Me Eb5 is incredible E5: Tie F5: Sohyang, Seungyeon is good too but some of her F5s in this show have been a bit tense (maybe stylistically) F#5: Tie for me G#5: Sohyang obv Bb5: Sohyang again of course Sohyang wins but Seungyeon is incredible too and has a lot of potential to improve in the future.
One tip - use normalization because all video cuts are with different volume. You missed some quite good G5s. Also this note vs note comparison doesn't show at all their real singing skills which is more important than just the quality of several notes. Their dynamics, transition, connected registers, musicianship and so on. Both are great singers. SoHyang is more skillful and she can do more impressive vocal acrobatics, feasts with her voice and more touching ones as well. Also dynamics from very soft and quiet moments to very powerful ones is much more present in SoHyang singing. She constantly use very big voice dynamics - at one moment is so soft, quiet and soothing and in the next moment she is up there belting with full power and again down very soft and again up there. This is a very impressive and captivating way of singing. It's also very hard. Very few singers pay so much attention to the dynamics and their voices must allow such huge difference and control. Many voices lacks capability to produce very quiet and soft sounds because under a certain power it turns just into a whisper. Every voice is limited to certain point. SoHyang voice is capable of such huge dynamics and she use it non stop in almost all her songs. Quite impressive. Their head voices are developed very differently and this is very important register. Son Seung Yeon needs a lot of work here which also can improve her vocal range. Son Seung Yeon is limited because of that and she avoids songs which heavily rely on head voice. They both are amazing but generally SoHyang is better vocalist without a doubt.
Well said. Your comments speak to my reaction. I am a Sohyang fan but also love Son Seung Yeon's voice. It's clear to me that Sohyang's control of the dynamics and her heavenly head voice give her an edge. Meanwhile the power and fierceness of SSY's tone sure sets her apart. It's particularly noticeable for notes below F5 to me. Enjoyed the compilation to listen to these notes side by side since I am not good enough to isolate them in their performances. Music is not really about competition but fun to compare.
That's just your opinion and others will have theirs too, some more valid than others. But what's undeniable is this, just take note of their AGE GAP. Sonnet Son has time on her side to be where Kim is today. Cheers.
Well written Nikalsson ! I agree on all points, and will add that SoHyang also is vocal agility if that is the right words. Listen to Faith and you will hear what I mean. Fluent runs without missing a note. And not necessarily up to the high notes. Actually they are not the most pleasing to my ears. Maybe that is what you call vocal acrobatics? Could be the same.
I love Son Seung Yon, I just love her beautiful belts and powerful voice. This might just be a personal preference but I just prefer a stronger sounding voice. She gave me chills in Winter Story, since then, she’s been my fave. I’m not going to lie So Hyang has a very powerful voice, she’s truly amazing.
I have never admired a singer who has touched me so much with her songs.. been a fan of so hyang since 2017 with her king of mask stint...and since then I was hooked...never spent a day without listening to her songs... every song is a lullaby...ssy is also a good singer and have watched her from immortal songs show, but my heart goes to so hyang... not only with her angelic heavenly voice...but knowing, too that she's an amazing person inside and out!
So Hyang has too many legendary performances to name. Son seung-yeon is great but for me her performances does not give me as much feels as So Hyang's.
Yeah I agree, I found that comparison of Sohyangs performances on KOMS and Son seung-yeons performances, I found that Sohyangs were just more profound and iconic. But son seung on immortal songs also has some incredible performances. They’re both some of the best singers there are right now.
Both of them are very good and shine in their own way. But technical wise, So Hyang is superior! Her support, resonance, dynamics, breath control and emotion are unbeatable. Every note sung by her is just effortless as if it naturally flows out..
I love both of them. They are great singers who have their own auras. But when some comments here saying SSY sounds like straining to hit high notes, I guess she sounds clearer and smoother in tones compared to SH. Indeed SH can reach higher notes, but I think SSY has more beautiful tones. Don't get me wrong, I love them both. For sure, everytime SSY sings ballad, I'll surely cry..that shows how soulful her voice is.. 🙂
In the last fifty years or so ,SoHyang is in my top 5. There is no order all 5 are generational singers! She might be the best at making us feel the song and It doesn’t matter if it’s in a language you understand, you feel what she sings! Also her arrangements are so, so Amazing! SoHyang all the way! Laura Fabian is very close in the way she delivers the emotion of the song, next would be Morrisette Amon! All Super Stars!
They are very different style's vocalists. Sohyang has much more opened sound, and Son suengyeon has strong cord contacted sound. I just don't understand why people always use Sohyang to compare with other singers. She is just on her own league. No one can be like her.
Both are excellent in my book! Different voices but equal in every regard. Son Seung Yeon has a deeper, darker, powerful, more soulful voice. Sohyang's voice is more elastic, brighter, and has a crystalline like angelic tone. If they both team up like Whitney and Mariah did, they'll be the undisputed, undefeatable singing pair! My ears will take both Son Seung and Sohyang please, thank you!
@@philhenderson3516 i agree, Sohyang's voice is like light. The light in a cave. A shooting heavenly light. Sonnnet's voice is very connected. Like a raging flame protecting its flamelets. Its a very commanding voice. And i agree to the Whitney/Mariah comparison. Sohyang:Mariah and Sonnet:Whitney
Without being biased, I would say son Seung Yeon is a better belter until about F5, and Sohyang is better at about everything else. Both vocalists are in my top 5 though!
For the low and mid belting, Son Seung Yeon got it. She possesses a very rich supported range in such levels. But, So Hyang could easily eat her alive in the upper belting and head tone. Her range is supported and powerful.
I just can’t choose between these two 😭❤️ I’ll say SoHyang has the clearest belts and SonSeungYeon has the most powerful ones but then again I can’t pick one of them 😂
Idk these 2 amazing singers I got here coz this video was in my recommendation but the one who was giving me a goose bumps when she sang and do the belting was son seung ...

SSY, tiene algo que me hace erizar la piel, sus presentaciones me transmiten y hacen latir el corazón, porque su interpretación es excelente, hablando de técnica Sohyang puede ser mejor pero SSY me ha robado el oxígeno
I like both, but I like Seung Yeon more because of her tonal colors. Also bc I love how powerful she is when she belts out her notes. It's like being punched in the face (but good).
So hyang is the best. Her voice is so powerful, clear, warm and sweet! SSY has a good voice too but I don't like her timbre. It's very piercing for me. But I enjoyed this comparison.
I love them both so much...Note by note :- I think its upto one’s preference(So Hyang def shines above F5 tho).....But So Hyang’s performances were outstanding
LOVE BOTH
I have watched your last video about SoHyang, and i have subscribed to your channel
Both are extraordinary but i like how Son Seung Yeon transmits so much emotion with her voice.
Same.. Her voice has that "depth" yet soulful, n also has a super high pitch - as high as the sky! ❤️
Agreed
Sohyang and Son Seung-yeon both look amazing and amazing.😍😻💖💞
Sohyang 😊😊
I have watched your last video about SoHyang, and i have subscribed to your channel 😊
SSY is amazing singer and a rising star, no doubt. But I am addicted to Sohyang. Sohyang is just otherworldly phenomenal singer.
Its like the B4 - E5 a low notes to sohyang its just so easy for her..
So Hyang
Son Seung Yeon is forever the winner for me, my soul gets touched when she sings
Singing not only about high notes. I love the way son seung yeon gives soul to every song she sang
Sohyang give me goosebumps!!! SSY has more powerfull middle belts which I enjoy. Both are amazing.
Real Voice For once I agree.
I have to admit that I had some bias to SSY by visual. With mask, she sounds fantastic. But Sohyang is special and she has some extra factor above all. I like her hand gestures also.
iris chang so are you saying that she doesnt sound fantastic without mask because of her visual?
Sohyang, my fave~~~ I love her clean, clear, and resonant heavenly voice~~~
This comparison right away shows how great Son Seungyeon is. 40 years old who has been singing maybe half of her life vs the 25 year-old Sonnet. Thank you very much. I didn't need confirmation that SSY is great- still thank you. 😍

Sohyang is an angel... and Sonnet is a vocal beast... Love Both❤
Love Both..
But I Love SoHyang's clear (and Angel) voices more..
dont fight wt me, Okay ?
So Hyang F5-F#5 (hug me) are iconic 😍
Sohyang all the way
LOVE BOTH!!!💕💕
BUT l was fascinated by Sohyang's heavenly voice. 😂😂😂
B4: tie
C5: Sohyang, that note is just so resonant
C#5: Tie
D5: Seungyeon
Eb5: Tie with a slight edge to Sohyang. This Hug Me Eb5 is incredible
E5: Tie
F5: Sohyang, Seungyeon is good too but some of her F5s in this show have been a bit tense (maybe stylistically)
F#5: Tie for me
G#5: Sohyang obv
Bb5: Sohyang again of course
Sohyang wins but Seungyeon is incredible too and has a lot of potential to improve in the future.
I'm sure son seungyeon has better B4s but this specific one isnt comparable to SoHyang's home B4
1st D5: tie
2nd D5: sohyang
3rd D5: sohyang
4th D5: tie
5th D5: son seung yeon
6th D5: sohyang
1st Eb5 goes to SoHyang.
2nd Eb5 goes to SoHyang by a mile
1st E5 is a tie with an edge to SoHyang
2nd E5 SoHyang
F#5 goes to SoHyang by quite a lot
Singers with incredible vocal techniques both !!!

Sohyangs tone is just so beautiful
SoHyang is the best
Only sohyang that can sustained Bb5!!!! Freakin' Bb5
Amazing Queen Sohyang 👸💕👍
@Nurul Huda Firdaus no she never sustained C#6 her highest sustained note is C6
Both are great but Sohyang just gave me a goosebump. Not any singer can do that in this world❤
SSY has that power yet realness in her voice.. that could make u feel the emotion especially about grief, anger, and painfulness
I love Son Seung Yon, I just love her beautiful belts and powerful voice. This might just be a personal preference but I just prefer a stronger sounding voice. She gave me chills in Winter Story, since then, she’s been my fave. I’m not going to lie So Hyang has a very powerful voice, she’s truly amazing.
Son Seung Yeon is the best....her voice really power!!
Love u SSY....
Son Seung Yeon has a Powerful Golden Voice OH MY GOD i Love her So much.
Amazing Queen Sohyang 👸💕👍
I love both of them and both are amazing. Both of them are number 1 for me. Fighting❤💕💞
Son seung yeon!!!!!!!!
So Hyang for sure
Of course Sohyang :>
So Hyang have all tecnique musicallity she can make emotion to any ballad also her timber pure clear as crystal
Shen can also sing rock,
@@ardjohnochab6872 i know that but she make any song so especial like she is the person who make the song she owned with all what she is
They're both.
And sohyang would like to be your queen' but sohyang would like to remain an angel to heal your pain.
I have never admired a singer who has touched me so much with her songs.. been a fan of so hyang since 2017 with her king of mask stint...and since then I was hooked...never spent a day without listening to her songs... every song is a lullaby...ssy is also a good singer and have watched her from immortal songs show, but my heart goes to so hyang... not only with her angelic heavenly voice...but knowing, too that she's an amazing person inside and out!
Both of them are my favorite Korean singers but Sohyang is always the first.
so hyang's vibratto are insane
Seung yeon's high notes is so effortless.
i like how you made your video...very elegant
So Hyang has too many legendary performances to name. Son seung-yeon is great but for me her performances does not give me as much feels as So Hyang's.
U should Watch Son SeungYeon performances in Immortal Songs !!
For me both superb
Yeah I agree, I found that comparison of Sohyangs performances on KOMS and Son seung-yeons performances, I found that Sohyangs were just more profound and iconic. But son seung on immortal songs also has some incredible performances. They’re both some of the best singers there are right now.
son seung yeon's voice is powerful while so htang's voice is full of emotions 😊 just my opinion ✌️
우리나라에 이렇게도 노래를 잘하는가수가 있다는것만으로도. 자부심이 생기네요~널리널리 세계에알릴수있는. 기회가 꼭올겁니다~손승연님 그때까지승승장구 하시길빕니다~
Damn... koreans shud be in the grammys!!! Both are superb!!
For me :
B4-Eb5 :SSY
E5 and F#5 : Tie
F5 : Sohyang
G#5-Bb5 : Sohyang
Both of them are very good and shine in their own way. But technical wise, So Hyang is superior! Her support, resonance, dynamics, breath control and emotion are unbeatable. Every note sung by her is just effortless as if it naturally flows out..

Twangy small res
I love the power ,clearliness , and a good acrobatics technique 😱😱of Son seong yeun.
She already reach the limit, watch sohyang you get goosebump.
They're both really talented vocalists. ❤️❤️❤️
Sohyang has more emotions in her voice.

Waiting for the other top 5. Perhaps ailee is one of them?
Yes, but Sohyang can belt much higher and with more power in a BB5
Both are fantastic. Sohyang I feel her voice has more fullness, richness and tone. Beautiful.
love both but personally my fav is SSY ♥
I prefer my queen so-hyang

They are amazing...just enjoy their talent 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰. Thanks God for made them became a singer 🤗❤🤗
And noone delivers the message, emotion and passion better than SoHyang .

두분다 최상의 컨디션이 아니였어요 소향님은 폐렴이셨구 손승연님은 성대폴립 상태로 나오신거라..
