Deadhead live at the Royal Albert Hall! Great channel BTW.
I'm quite certain that I've viewed this reaction more than anyone. 😏
Devin Townsend "Failure" live at Plovdiv

!!!!!!! 🤗 please
I NEVER get tired of watching people react to Devin.
It's so good
I often do that just to brighten my own mood. 😂
Now watch him sing "Why", specifically from his quarantine concert. It's a Disney-esk opera-type song.
Yes :)
Absolutely!!!
I also like his live version in Order of Magnitude, it would be nice to see someone reacting to that one :D
this is a great video to watch!
Yes! This!
On Devin Townsend's "Why?" video, one of the top comments is "Devin Townsend is my favorite Disney princess'." He makes a good princess, hero and the villain all in one.
Thank you for your comment. Did you like the new Encanto reaction I just posted and hope to see you Friday for the Encanto Bruno Premiere?
Devin Townsend's tamest, most reserved performance
Yeah and get this, Devin is completely self taught. This man is a genius. Also All Hail Ziltoid!
Indeed!
Do you have any more coffee??
Poozer!
BRING ME YOUR BEST CUP OF COOOOOFFFFFFEEEEEEE
Pfftt!! Fetid!
🥳 That was a fun video. He has other cool songs. A song called "Why". It's sung to a cartoon where he is the character.
Thank you for your lovely comment and for watching my video until the end. I appreciate it. 😁💖🥳
@@maggiereneemusic "why" from the Quarantine Show, live version, for more of the epic banter ;) 🥳
Devin Townsend Project - Stormbending live at Plovdiv with orchestra and choir accompaniment.
Yes!!
Deadhead live...you will never be the same. Devin is a monster
Devin Townsend - 2021 Failure Live WITH an orchestra is immaculate
perfection
It was nice to see you laugh at the guitar solo joke as so many reactors don't get it. :) Deadhead live at the Royal Albert Hall is another great performance.
The guitar solo is hilarious. If you ever watched EMG TV it is absolute shredding.His solo is so easy. Hilarious
The cherry on top is that he could outshred most professional guitarists if he tried
Devvy has synesthesia. A great composition must be a rainbow to him! 🥳
Thank you for your lovely comment and for watching my video until the end. I appreciate it. 😁💖🥳
So many people react to this and the guitar solo bit goes right over their heads somehow, was stoked someone finally got it!
The amount of moistness from vocal coaches with Devy keeps me coming back. Love it
Especially Rebecca Vocal Athlete... although she soaks her knickers to almost every male singer she watches (and a few of the girls too!)...
Now since this has came back, it's time to do WHY.
Yep, Devin's "Why?" will blow your mind. He sings entire concerts full-out like this and his voice only gets stronger as the night goes on.
The flick hes doing with his picking hand (right hand) is actually an endurance break. Because of the speed and style of his music and the palm muting technique, his wrist takes a great level of strain, so the flicking of the wrist helps to keep it limber :)
Even with all the amazing ability he displays in this performance, I think his on stage charisma is the most impressive part of the whole thing.
He’s up there with Freddie Mercury and David Byrne for me
Oh my...welcome to the Rabbit hole...Im stuck here for 25 years...still can not get out....heared him first on Steve Vais album following his career ever since....Devin is Mad Genious Production and singing wise
The most amazing thing about Devin is that he's self-taught
One of my favorite thing as a singer is watch other singers or teachers react to Devin 😄 Devin is a monster!
I’m so glad you enjoyed this. I’ve listened to Strapping Young Lad a lot when I was younger, but this was my first Devin Townsend song I’ve heard. It was simultaneously not what I was expecting, and so much more than what I was expecting. If you ever get a chance to watch some interviews with him, you won’t be disappointed. He is very kind and humble.
The Death of Music, Live at the Royal Albert Hall. Mr. Townsend's greatest performance.
You should definitely react to “Why” and/or “Deadhead”(live in Royal Albert Hall)by Devin
The best part of this video is definitely watching Maggie's facial expressions of joy and wonder. We Hevy Devy fans adore this guy and can't get enough of him and his music. He is one of the most personable, down-to-earth and self-effacing people in rock and does regular "hangout" livestreams on Twitch for his fans. He has done a series of livestream "Quarantine Concerts" during lockdown over the last year or so, some of which to raise funds for hospitals/NHS in Canada, the UK and USA.
Thank you for your comment. Metal is next on my channel! 🤘 Set your reminders and 'ring the bell for notifications'! Will you be there tomorrow early in the chats for a fun metal premiere?
I gotta man CRUSH so frick’n hard on this Dude “Devin”. I can growl/screech and I got clean vocals all day. But I can’t do both. I wonder if I can get him to roll 🎲🎲 and 🎼“play D&D with me, lord?”🎶
Loved your reaction to Devon. He is definitely one of a kind! If you really want to hear his voice without a lot of the growl watch his quarantine session of Why. This is just another reason to love this guy..
Thank you for your lovely comment! 😊💖
It's impossible not to love him. I'm sure that I'm not the only one to recommend a reaction to his quarantine concert to the song "why?". Stay safe 🤘😁🤘
New sub (and former VP major) here! Devin is AMAZING and if you want to hear his incredible range and emotional captivation, Deadhead live at RAH will blow you away!!!
Welcome to my channel! Hope to see you Wed, Fri and Sat? 🤩
All of you people recommending “Why?” from his quarantine stream are missing the best performance of that song. His live performance at the “Order of Magnitude” show is way better IMO. Hilarious and spectacular. Plus he’s wearing a tutu. What more could you want?
Now watch him sing Being Me Home if you wanna hear more of the classical/music theatre side of his voice. It's so impressive coming from a legend of metal.
Hope to see you on my Nightwish Premiere of a new reaction video tomorrow? 🤩
The fifthy thousand subscribers dance really got me. Congratulations!
Thank you!! 🥰
🥳 That was fun! He is a very unique and special talent!
Thank you for your lovely comment and for watching my video until the end. I appreciate it. 😁💖🥳
Someone fell in love
If this is a re-upload, why is it being premiered? Also, if you like this guy and his "operatic" style. You should check out his song "Why" from his quarantine album.
Thank you for your suggestion! 😊
No, please don't, so tired of people reacting to the same stuff, it's this song, why and deadhead and after that 99% of all youtubers stop and doesn't react to any more songs, there is tons of reaction videos of the same songs, getting boring.
Hes one of the most friendly people on earth too. Genuinely great guy.
NOTICE how his "screams" are produced with his upper lip placed ON the mic. He's NOT at full volume, or anywhere close. My best theory is that he has superb breath support and throat control so that he can produce a raspberry-like effect through the false folds to restrict pressure and airflow this allowing his vocal folds to vibrate cleanly behind that distortion at th tip-top of his range. Just like a lip-roll warmup exercise except his throat is freeing his mouth to shape that beautiful sound.
Thank you very much! Hope to see you in less than 1 hour in the chats?
I'm convinced his hand flicks are to release excess energy so the universe doesn't explode. 😆
I'm really late to this party, but I like the comment about the facial expressions and gestures used to engage the audience. Metal shares a lot with opera and musical theater in that regard. If anyone has ever wondered "What the hell were they thinking" when looking at 70's-80's hair-metal bands, with the bright spandex suits, excessive makeup, etc... it's so you can be seen from the back of the house in live concerts. You weren't going to be projected on a 30 foot screen. The same reason stage actors wear tons of makeup.
Bands like Kiss and Twisted Sister turned it into a persona for the band. Others would wear makeup live, but any time they were videoed, they wouldn't (or would wear film makeup that had less contrast), so a lot of time, you really couldn't even tell. But there's so much that goes into the production of those events beyond just the music. A friend of mine from way back became a make-up artist and she tours with tons of bands, and it's apparently a good paying gig, lol. Some people have an innate stage presence, like Devin here, but there's still a very conscious effort that is being negotiated while preforming.
Lol bonus points for awesome bed dance montage
MORE DEVIN!!! He does a live performance singing "Bring him home" he is just amazing 😊
You nailed it when you said he doesn’t take it too seriously. He has a lyric that emphasizes that perfectly: “music... well it’s just entertainment folks!”
Your eyebrows are absolutely perfect. Love 'em.
reminder set , 🤠
YAY! 🤠
Side note Devin Townsend, was born in New Westminster, British Columbia, Canada.
Please do Funeral, Bastard, and The Death of Music live at the RAH.... Mind blowing 😱🤯
Our budding metalhead see you then
Can't wait! 🤘
As far as I remember he's selftaught singer and acutally just wanted to play guitar but needed to sing to do the music he invisioned.
Heavy Devy and his magical wall of sound are an amazing thing. He is a genius. You should check out his stuff with Strapping Young Lad. Maybe the song “Love?”. Pretty mind blowing. Devy is definitely a force of nature. Great review! 🙂
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you TODAY in about 30 minutes on Twitch www.twitch.tv/MaggieReneeMusic for fun LIVE Reactions and on www.patreon.com/MaggieRenee to help support my channel, if you are interested. Thank you and Happy Holidays! 🤗💖
I’m just waiting for the day My Mother Told Me by Voiceplay reaches your channel. I’m seriously considering sponsoring it🤣
Thank you for your comment. Did you enjoy my new reaction video to Voiceplay I just posted?
This was so good. I’m not Juilliard-trained, but I am state U trained lol but the teaching techniques are ubiquitous. And your take on HevyDevy is FUN for a guy like me! You’re such a blast! I quit as a music major because all it did was teach me more about why I’m not a natural songbird like you and Devin Townsend. Still, I’m great full for my deeper appreciation for you songbirds. You are what brings me joy. Thank you for following your talent AND for this review on my all-time favorite musician :)
Autocorrect changed “grateful” to “grate full”. Goddangit!
LOL! Thank you for your lovely comment. Hope to see you TONIGHT at my LIVE stream?
I love watching the coaches react to Devin.
I knew there was a reason I hadn't watched Devin Townsend before. So I could see Maggie's Happy Dance.
fantastic voice great musician
Glad you enjoyed! 😊
@@maggiereneemusic he ,s class
😍
This was his 1st take, whoever is behind the scenes screwed up twice before. Hence what he said after dude said take 3. Also, he is not hurting his voice at all. He has been this good for forever now. Check out Strapping Young Lad - Love. See for yourself. Devin is just that gifted. Kinda like Tatianna from Jinjer. Ultimate vocal control. They both have it. I have seen many people screw up their voices though. Few can switch instantly back and forth.
Thank you for your comment. Don't forget to set your reminder notifications and hope to see you on my LIVE stream tomorrow?
🥳
Åh, Devin 🤩😍
Great reaction, your a cool chick. Keep it up.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
His song Deadhead, live at The Royal Albert Hall. Absolutely nothing quite like it!
He also does country! His side project, Casualties of Cool is incredible.
No accident you mention Jinjer. That's because Jinjer's producer, Max Morton, named Devy his all time favorite producer and the guy he tries to emulate in the studio.
Devy has been THE most influential and beloved artist/producer/songwriter in metal for decades. People talk about the comedian's comedian; well, he's the metal artist's metal artist. He has worked with every who's who in metal today from Gojira to Gwar. The stuff he does is ten years ahead of its time. The stuff he's doing right now, mixing chorus arrangements with metal is something you'll start to hear a lot from other newer bands in ten or fifteen years.
Hope to see you on my Nightwish Premiere of a new reaction video tomorrow? 🤩
@@maggiereneemusic Sorry, not a fan of Nightwish. I respect them as great musicians though, and Floor is an amazing vocalist, just not my thing. You may love them though. I hope you enjoy them.
Gotcha
Welcome to Devy's World. We're all just living in it. :)
Devy is a showman! He loves to ham it up.
Loved your reaction to hearing Devin Townsend for the first time Renee. Devi does what I like to call heavy metal musical theater. And you picked up on his performance personality. Devi never fails to entertain and as others have said, I definitely recommend checking his "Why" Quarantine performance from his TH-cam Channel. But you really cannot go wrong with anything from Townsend's discography. There are a good number of live performances like the Ocean Machine show from the Ancient Roman Ampitheatre in Plodiv in 2017 or the Ziltoid show at Royal Albert Hall in 2015. There is also the Retinal Circus show from 2012 at the Roundhouse in London that features vocalists Anneke van Giersbergen as well.
Hope to see you on my Nightwish Premiere of a new reaction video tomorrow? 🤩
I am a huge Strapping Young Lad fan, since like 1996 or something. Haven't really been big into his solo stuff, but I love seeing it live. He played down the street from me a couple years back and it was one of the best live performances I've ever seen. I couldn't even stay for the next band.
I highly recommend this same track or Grace from the Retinal Circus performance. He's accompanied by the amazing Anneke van Giersbergen, an absolute goddess. Really, any track from that show is a guaranteed good time.
🥳
His vocal range has been noted to be over 5 octaves and 3 notes (C2 to F#7), noting that he mainly masters 2nd and 5th octaves for clean but also raucous vocals and 5th to 7th octaves for purely screamed vocals. Daniel Lake of Decibel Magazine classifies Townsend's voice as a "semi-operatic tenor".
Hi M, that was fun ). Love from Portugal
Well I of course have to give this another like!!! lol
Devin Townsend is the single greatest musician on the planet.
He is also naturally hilarious.
Someone's in love with Devin..;). Awesome talent. Great reaction. More Devi please.
Thank you for your lovely comment. Will you be there for my 195K Subscriber Celebration Live Stream tomorrow?
Loved that.!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't have emojis. I'm too old.
Thank you for your comment. Hope you enjoyed the video I just published?
🥳
Thank you for watching my video until the end. I appreciate it. 😁💖🥳
8:55 that transposition to the minor key from the major key he was in was sick ass fuikkk
Hope you revisit Devin again soon.
Hahaha, yeah, this is the reaction video that made me fall in love with your channel.
Thanks! Hope to see you in 1 hour on my LIVE stream?
You are fan girling over Hevy Devy! The man is Uber talented, and a real showman. My fave stuff of his is when he has the amazing Anneke Vangerbergen with him in concert. Check them out doing Awake, Hyperdrive and Supercrush....amazing! Oh and esp Grace!!! Omg
Thank you for your comment. Hope to see you TODAY in about 30 minutes on Twitch www.twitch.tv/MaggieReneeMusic for fun LIVE Reactions and on www.patreon.com/MaggieRenee to help support my channel, if you are interested. Thank you and Happy Holidays! 🤗💖
LP singing "Into the Wild" she wrote and recorded this song about 10 yrs ago
I don't know if this has been stated in the comments below, so if I'm repeating, forgive me. But if memory serves, the lyrics deal with a time he was dealing with addiction to drugs and was a love song to his wife to stick with him through it. Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but that's what I remember him saying about the song's meaning.
The dance was funny you had fun lol
The other day, I was writing something and used the word beautiful, and your voice was in my head as I spelled b-e-a-utiful
Thank you very much! Hope to see you in less than 1 hour in the chats?
You’re a beautiful soul 🙂
Just a wonderful person 😌
Thank you very much! Hope to see you in less than 1 hour in the chats?
I'd love to see one of the youtube reacting channels to check out the really old material by all the reaction favs. for instance this one: "Strapping Young Lad live 8.13.1997 kinda pro shot (Pops, Sauget IL)" You don't have to do a 'live reaction' just skip through it and comment on the difference between now and then.
Devin Townsend has something that seems to be missing from a lot of rock and metal lately. You mentioned it in your reaction. He has fun and doesn't take himself too seriously. I love rock and metal but too many performers take themselves too seriously and the music and the performers lack fun.
Hope to see you on my Nightwish Premiere of a new reaction video tomorrow? 🤩
I really don't believe he's stressing his cords that much, because he's got the mic IN his mouth almost, and because of how crispy his clean channel stays through the whole song.
He's also been singing like this for almost 30 years so I'm gonna venture a guess that he's doing it in a healthy way.
@@fubar1217 Now that's a *wild* and *bold* suggestion 😁
Devin is King'dom
more of devin please
So good !
So glad you enjoyed! Can't wait to see you tomorrow at the Premiere! 😊🎶
OF COURSE you are in love with him like the rest of us ;)
This is an ad for EMG Pickups 81/87
Coolest part? Some of what he sang was originally done by a soprano.
Devy is for sure a vocal beast!
«Enya was a huge deal for me. That kind of woman vocals and how wide those productions were.», Devin Townsend
I'll watch this again. Hell ya🤘
Good Reaction
I watched this the last time it was posted. Watching it again, it's still entertaining. I like Mr. Townsend. He's a different breed of cat.
Lyrically, from what I've been told (and maybe experienced), it was a plea to his wife. The lies and deception regarding his drinking. She gave him an ultimatum. Hence, "the point I mean, I missed it".
Thanks a lot Maggie 😘
🥳 You could also watch his song Genesis from the Order of Magnitude show. It's such a great show, and he's wearing a tutu 😆
Devin is awesome! Great stuff!
Now WHY, from his Quarantine Show. 😊👍
Do more Devin Townsend / Strapping Young Lad. Doesn't matter what song! Just do any of them!
😍
Could you do a reaction to five finger death punch's wrong side of heaven. As a veteran and memorial day coming up if you haven't heard this song it is my favorite because of the truths it speaks. Thanks
Thank you for your suggestion! 😊
