Great analysis. One thing that blows me away about Dany and her guitar set up is that she has to be so DEAD ON in everything because it's so present in the mix. One mistake, whether crunchy effected or clean, and it's gonna be VERY easy to notice. So, she's singing lead, got her pedal board, and she's performing...but makes it look so EASY! That only comes from LOVING what she does. They all do which is what makes it such a joy to behold.
Awesome reaction- totally agree. That no stress thing - they’ve learned to perform over the top but inside their zone, love it. And Ale’s vocal moment - check out the bass riff she pulls off right as she finishes singing. Reaches down, adjusts her sound, then lays into it
I was at that concert and what I can tell you is that there are no words to describe an experience like this, the sound in the theater is very good and they made the most of it, but the most IMPRESSIVE thing is how they give us intense emotions with their talents , truly a unique experience. "The Warning" effect. ⚠️⚡😎⚡ Excelente reacción, Saludos! desde México.
Their lack of visible stress on stage is a blend of professionalism and just lots of practice. They are machines who could probably do these songs in their sleep, not that anyone would want them to. 🤩
Their muscle memory is astounding. You're so right. That only comes from practice, practice, practice...and performing. Yet every performance you see them having a blast and the better the level of feedback from the audience the better they perform. It's amazing;.
Not to mention that they grew up doing this, and things Ale literally was a member of a successful rock group with a full album release and supporting shows at legendary worldwide venues when she was still a preteen.
They stepped on stage for the first time in 2012. Dany was 12. Ale was like 7. 2022 was their tenth year on stage/public eye. Especially Ale is calm as a rock on stage.
@@americanswan 3½ minutes into the *The Warning Muse World Tour Mexico 2023 AfterMovie* when Pau says *MY heart is pounding!* Ale replies _"It's just a show!"_
@@TheUnderdogDe I don't know everything, but I know that. Ale is seemingly more in control of her emotions. There's an awesome pic of Ale at the end of that video if you screen cap it.
The Villarreal sisters have redefined the structure of a rock song by keeping it simple and short. In the 60s, 70s, 80s a rock song used to be identified with the quality of guitar solo and at times by its length. But The Warning have shown us that we can equally enjoy rock in its simplicity, brevity. "Less is more" is their mantra. And we love it.
@@abugewww8013 Yes. Love that. We have had some glimpses in her early years. But now I think she composes a song keeping in mind her energy levels throughout an hour long concert. Her drumming already has become very economical compared to how she used to beat those drums in a visually sensational style with arms flailing.
@@abugewww8013 have you seen "Faith Benson and Paulina Villarreal Drum Duo | Hit Like A Girl" th-cam.com/video/qN9oPaBR0vw/w-d-xo.html It is a joy to watch
So Dany has a programmable pedal board that produces multiple signals each in different octaves and effects. If she adds millisecond delays to the signals, she simulates multiple guitars, otherwise it helps create the wall of sound by enhancing the main signal.
Beyond the musicality emitted by the masterfully executed instruments and the stupendous voices, each day more mature and better... And the paraphernalia of the show, which achieves its goal... It's inescapable that this moves you from the depths of your emotions when you observe what the girls are doing in their performance… It's more than a pleasure to see how Pau really enjoys what seems to be a game that amuses her so much that she gives herself up, contributing all her emotions and, at the same time, allows herself to be the receptacle of everything that can transmit to her what's happening around her, transforming everything into a virtuous circle of unsurpassed quality. Well, surely only surmountable by themselves. And they have so much mastered what they are doing that they only have to give themselves completely, passionately (as Latinos know it), to what they like to do best and most, in a way in which they have fun and fully enjoy it. For this and many more things TW will conquer the world of rock! INEVITABLE. Cheers ⚡🎸🥁🎸⚡
Another great reaction from one of my favorite reactors! I'm definitely down for anything and everything relating to TW so sign me up! Shout out to your doggo on the couch back there just chilling 😂
They can definitely project how comfortable they are and yet remain focused and serious about what they do. You can really see how at ease they are whenever they make a mistake. For instance, Dany has forgotten lyrics and Pau jumps in and Dany just laughs at herself and picks it back up. Ale once dislodged her bass cable and so she just began leading the audience in clapping. Ale also recently fell but kept on playing while she was sitting on the floor trying to get up. You can be serious and not take yourself so serious.
Saw that clip of Ale falling. I think it's part of the lore, now. But it was just amazing that she didn't even seem to miss a beat, except maybe as she was helped back up.
Someone said in another video that Dany was a mediocre guitar player. Yes, every now and then there's an off note in some songs during their live performances - who cares! A lot of top artists will do the same. What she does, rhythm, lead (switching from one to the other - Dany refers to it as "Lythm"), her control over the pedalboard and top of that singing and interacting with the audience. She is no slouch in my mind and she gets better and better. Ale's great bass lines and Pau's energetic drums, the harmonies - man! There is no weak link in The Warning. Thanks for the reaction, always looking forward to more.
I’ll go to a pop show if I want it to be perfect 😂😂 mediocre in the eyes of who? Because I like to think I’m a decent guitar player, yet I can’t seem to get it RIGHT playing along with The Warnings music - tone aside because I love my tone, there’s a magic that extends paper and theory. I’m my correct opinion, of course. 😂
Well stated! There's probably quite a few out there that will be critical of Dany's "technical skill" on guitar. Perhaps both of her sisters may even be on a higher level than her with their own instruments. But it doesn't really matter. What she does with the guitar is more than enough to get the job done song-wise. Not to mention her strong point is her stellar vocals anyway, and she's one hell of a front lady and performer to boot. Plenty of girls out there who can shred. How many can write/co-write their own songs and sell out a venue?
They could use auto tune and other digital enhancements to make it sound just like the crap every pop star out there does, but that ain't rock'n'roll. I challenge anyone who says such a thing about Dany's skill level to go back and listen to The Beatles or The Roilling Stones live performances from the 60s. They were out of sync with one another at times, out of tune, played bum notes, blew their harmonies. Yes, they didn't do it often, but they still mess up here and there along the way. It's human. And that is what's missing in today's popular music, the human element. It may as well be AI generated because it's damned close to be that already.
What made me understand just how good Dany, and Pau for that matter, are.....was other musicians, like Lzzy Hale who sing and play guitar at the same time as well, say about what they are doing live on stage: Lzzy plays the same thing she is singing. Dany isn't always playing what she's singing. As a person who can't walk and chew gum at the same time, it makes total sense. 🧐
These sisters sure know how to write/compose, arrange excellent songs musically. Additionally, their vocal melodies and harmonies are always right on point. A dive into their lyrics and the message or emotions they covay is mind-blowing and sets them truely apart on many levels. And on a personal level they are so funny, friendly, goofy, nerdy, down to earth people you will ever find. 🖐🤓🍿
Hey, My friend! It's so cool you picked up on how comfortable they are. That is what I noticed right away the first time I saw them live. They are so well rehearsed that they can play these songs in their sleep. So, when they are on stage it is effortless for them to friggin' KILL it! Live, they are playing to the audience, and so comfortable that when any of them make a rare mistake, they make a quick face to the audience, like "Oops, haha", and their sisters will give them a look, like "haha, you messed up". They are so much fun live, especially in a small venue, that everyone feels like part of the show and it's a big party instead of a concert!
That 5th string on Ales bass adds so much meat to the power chords Danys playing. Also some fuzz on those low notes that just add to that wall of sound.
Also this song showcases Dany's voice. But it also shows her vocal technique. She belts just enough and holds back just a bit to conserve her voice. Genius.
Great analysis! They are overwhelmingly talented!! EPIC live performance as usual! Yep, Dany did an extensive Helix pedalboard video. She is a guitar nerd! Viva The Warning!! ⚡⚡⚡
Wait...I had no idea that was Ale in the solo vocal part "Let me drown" at 8:40ish. I don't know when I've heard her sing alone. I could listen to more of that to be honest.
If it was up to Ale she would only be harmonizing. Sometimes when Dany isn't all well and can't sing a full set Ale and Pau might sing songs that Dany normally sings. th-cam.com/video/cKZRmpBh51E/w-d-xo.html
I agree that the performance/body language is nice and relaxed, but I do kind of hear some vocal strain from Dany in this song in particular. Those high notes are pretty high up there for belting, and it's not that she's really missing on pitch, but it's the tone that sounds to me like it's swapping to a yell instead of a belt (it sounds to me like it's near the edge of her range) - also, during quite a few of their shows this last year, it seemed to me that her voice got tired after they performed this song (she'd have some accuracy problems for a song or two after), so at least to my amateur analysis, it seemed to me like some strain/pushing was going on (the quaver in her voice at 9:30 when she sings 'me' is kind of what I'm talking about how you can hear some vocal fatigue). As long as she's not hurting her voice, it's no big deal, but when they get on the consistent touring schedules, I can imagine that gets pretty tiring on the chords. If it wasn't their biggest radio hit, they could skip it for some shows to give her a break, but it seems like that song's locked into the setlist until they get bigger hits.
That high note at the end of "drown" is one of the hardest belts you'll ever see in a song, for multiple reasons: first, coming at the end of a sustained climb with a lot of articulation via breath control, and second, keeping the full belt from low to high with same tonality and not doing any switch in their voice mix like 99% of singers would do. I've seen a few singers react to that song and I don't think any of them have really taken a moment to fully contemplate what is happening vocally there (and why you never hear singers do this).
@@ClavisRa I don't really know enough about the specifics of the technique to comment on the difficulty vs other big notes in rock/metal songs, but it's definitely a tough song to sing. I like the sound of a lot of their other songs better, but the studio version of this one is definitely the 'show off how skilled the singer is' track when people are first being introduced to their music.
So many rock tunes sound like crap to me, too much muddled together. The Warning is clear and deep. The bass is in a special place and the kick leads the way.
Mr Bel...lol...As a 61 yr old bass player of 40 years I can say unequivocally that you are a musical genious & if you love The Warning...and RUSH, well, you're 95% on the top shelf/tier...guaranteed, if ya don'ts believe me well write this down and look at it in 1 yr, 5 yrs...hell, 10 yrs.
YEP! I do believe that the dude with 3 foot long hair and goat-tee playing loud, screeching & piercing guitar solos is over. Just ask Alex Lifeson...yes he played some guitar solos but majority of Rush songs was Alex playing "fancy" rhythym guitar...NOT loud screeching piercing VH guitar solos.

Ale's bass lines are SO tastefully played.. these ladies are one of a very few bands who sound better than the"Official" releases..
Great analysis. One thing that blows me away about Dany and her guitar set up is that she has to be so DEAD ON in everything because it's so present in the mix. One mistake, whether crunchy effected or clean, and it's gonna be VERY easy to notice. So, she's singing lead, got her pedal board, and she's performing...but makes it look so EASY!

Well spotted.
I had missed it.
Shows how much attention is paid to every detail of a song they compose with everyone contributing.
Love Ale's bass line in Choke. Her signature Spector sound is so totally fab !
I was at that concert and what I can tell you is that there are no words to describe an experience like this, the sound in the theater is very good and they made the most of it, but the most IMPRESSIVE thing is how they give us intense emotions with their talents , truly a unique experience.

There are two upcoming videos where the singing abilities of Dany and Pau are simply out of this world.
Soon?
Hell yeah, gear break downs are like watching "How It's Made" and I'm all for it. 👍
But, that bass groove tho 🤘😍🤘
So Dany has a programmable pedal board that produces multiple signals each in different octaves and effects. If she adds millisecond delays to the signals, she simulates multiple guitars, otherwise it helps create the wall of sound by enhancing the main signal.
Just how Ale handles the bass !!! 🤘🔥🔥🔥🐺🤘
Did anyone notice at the end of Ale's solo moment she gives Dany a "nailed it" grin?
Loved your reaction and commentary. Always learn something new.
I’m sure TWA would be down for a review of Dany’s pedalboard video, or just about anything involving The Warning. 😎👍
