So she's actually a professional player of air instruments
I knew the online course was worth it.
I learned air guitar at Trump University.
Me too. I also learned the triangle. I am a professional triangle player.
I didn't know middle fingering commas was an instrument.
poopisnotpoop no, no. middle fingering commas is the speaking part, it's not the instrumental part.
how would the world be if everyone was that passionate about their job
Well, you can't blame a guy who cleans prota potties at $7.25/hr for not being passionate about his job.
David S. except that guy earns much more than an IT professional in a developing country
Kenn Clarete okay but the cost of living is probably much higher where the cleaner lives
SpeedoTan yeah. Your original post had a point. I just wanted to show that his life isn't so bad. I mean, he can afford an iphone more than the IT guy.
El Bstr it would be wonderful !
Imagine going to a concert and the interpreter being like **music**
vacuum cleaner I have actually seen this at a concert it was awesome actually
@@parkers9095 I think what he meant was that you go to a concert and the lady just does the sign for music.
Xande oh! Lol. That would be terrible.
lol like those subtitles on TH-cam.
This is a new level of **kills you in Spanish**
this documentary lacks something very important: the opinion of the deaf and what this type interpretation means/feels for them.
Amber actually developed this form of interpretation with almost strictly Deaf people. She also has a family of Deaf people and she herself is hard of hearing. I do wish they included that info in this video though.
Mars S doesn’t mean much.

You think you do.
@@nickcaswell965 How do you know that he think he do? You just assume stuff. How do you know that he thinks he can or cannot interpret the music without volume? How do you know if he's deaf or hard of hearing or not?
People assume too much
@@ynntari2775 that trueee people should lern to be happy when someone accomplsihe
I’ve seen that in Closed Captions, too. They’d just say “music”. Lately I’ve been seeing some adjective and adverbs, like “energetic music” or “somber music” or “gentle music”, so that’s better, I guess.

my favorite is when the hero is chased into leaping out of an exploding building, with sparks showering every where and the caption says.... intense music. it seems so pointless. if you can't tell by all of the explosions that the scene is intense, then you have failed as a film maker and writing 'intense music' isn't going to save it.
I feel it is necessary to interpret music with such emotion without this the mute and deaf will miss out on the beauty of music
Julius Toledo they don't have to Jesus heals
Addon - Not being deaf or mute myself yet knowing for a fact they can feel vibrations of a speaker or how some can feel the subtle low notes of music; they can experience the variations of beat and rhythm. Although not as varied to those that can hear other notes - the percussions in music by itself can introduce them to the complexities of music.
cant they already hear if theyre mute?
Mute people can't speak, but they can still hear
elijah rivers Regardless of the historical accuracy of that, Jesus is dead.
She should make a youtube channel in which she interprets songs!!

idk about hero lol
As a disabled person myself, although not deaf, the most important word is accessibility. It's not just being able to access a place in a wheelchair without a barrier. It's also about being provided the tools to allow us to enjoy life to the fullest, just like everyone else.

they should make a band out of this. imagine the rave party.
How the rave party sounds like:
[SILENCE]
Alexander Niyazov i hope this will be a new hipster thing in the future.
Alexander Niyazov A deaf party would be rather loud, actually, so you can really feel the music. And deaf people are not silent. You'd realize this if you went to quite a few Deaf events.
Just add light gloves
ysolomon malodgne yeas!!!
Rappers should perform their songs using this ASL thing. She looks amazing interpreting Eminem's song at 4:48
check out andy mineo- hear my heart. he did just that
Rafael Burgos j
Also Ed Sheeran did it in his music video for you need me I dont need you
If you check out Amber's channel, you'll see she's interpreted "Rap God". :O
AbsurdExistentialist how is that even possible? She must have to condense like four words to one sign or something
this is amazing yes... but my god does it seem like a ton of work!
Forrest Stevens believe me it is.
Abigail Riggs personally that only makes it more amazing.
It's a ton of work. Especially because everyone signs different. Your ASL 1 professor will sign different than your ASL 2 professor.. then your ASL 3 professor will just be focused on selling nachos for fundraisers ..
Just like with anything else, it takes time
@@moonettewolfsong9960 amazed all the tme at trivolities
This video made me think. It made me think about deaf people and how as a hearing person, we've often unwittingly dismissed their needs and wants from our circle. I'd never thought about it. Thanks for helping me balance that out from now on.
i wish we could also have a deaf persons perspective. it feels like listening to a one sided conversation. i applaud the fact tht shes going all out to convey the expressiveness of music to deaf audiences
I agree they should have included Deaf input. But for what it's worth, Amber is hard of hearing herself. She also has Deaf family and developed this ASL style with primarily Deaf people.
Sahara, I agree! This feels like a one sided thing. I want to be an interpreter (don't want to interpret songs), and having a Deaf person's perspective is VERY important with this kind of stuff.

@@rosecandy117at the same time, they say Deaf is not a monolith. One Deaf person may love it while another may hate it. Having a token stamp of approval wouldn't validate or invalidate her art.
i wanna see her doing rap god, she'll probably break her hands
edit: i probably dont deserve that many likes, but thanks.
It's on her TH-cam channel. Look her up.
What's here TH-cam channel called
Her channel is called, "Amber Galloway." Same as her name.
Rap god isn't a good song honestly and I'm a fan of Eminem.
First Name Basis but its pretty much known as the "fast rap" anthum at this point
Am I the only one that finds it odd that they censored the written expletives, but not the spoken or signed?
Anonymous Freak ikr
I find it odd they censor no matter what.
It’s vox. Not exactly smart folks.
Why would they, they don’t censor for ethical reasons, they do it to avoid being hit with regulation or demonetization. If neither the audience nor regulatory bodies care then why bother
@@carrotcake6572 There is no regulatory body for Internet videos, it's only whatever TH-cam deems to be appropriate or inappropriate.
she made me cry.
I, as a hearing person who deeply connects with music, who feels it so intensely as I do, can't imagine not having the opportunity to experience it at least like she's doing. What an amazing human being!
Thanks to everyone doing the same thing.
I love that there's a culture being made for creative signing. Especially to music. It just makes sense that you don't want to just communicate the 1s and 0s of the words, but the emotions behind the art.

Vox is such an amazing informative channel ❤
Rach Stone +
If they aren't talking about politics then yeah.
(+democritus) Well than why the heck would you watch a channel if it goes to much on one side? It's okay to have liberal videos but at least bring some conservative thoughts! We are not all the same and we have different viewpoints. It gets a bit annoying when this happens because they think everyone is a liberal.
No, channels do not have to pander to the broadest common denominator. They can produce whatever they believe represents important ideas or events. Vox doesn't "think everyone is a liberal" - they think that the ideas they are presenting are important and meaningful.
Dance Party I've never noticed a particular bias on here...thats why I like it so much compared to other sources? I don't really know what you mean
I was thinking about this a while back when I happened to walk past a marching band at a street fair. The music was so loud that I could actually feel the vibrations in my chest. I think that would have to be the best way for a deaf person to experience music - combined with what this woman does.
I think we really need more interpreters like her, that know how to sign musically, not just put song lyrics into ASL.
Love this woman, what an inspiration!
How is this an inspiration
Exactly lol
This just shows to tell everyone that people with disabilities can function in this society.
Keisha Morris the fat woman or the deaf peeps
Andrew Q deaf people and anyone with a disability. What do think I was writing about?
Keisha Morris deaf people don't consider themselves disabled
Well I am so sorry about that has been offensive in such a way. I am just saying that anyone with any condition should be treated with the respect like any human being.
Keisha Morris hey its alright it happens all the time its just good to be informed
I actually saw her during a music festival. Absolutely amazing I was too busy looking at her signing instead of the band.

That woman and all the sign language interpreters that are doing this are amazing. I deeply appreciate the work they're doing because it is the worst nightmare to imagine to never be able to experience music in all its beauty. Thank you so much to give this to the disabled people! And als always - thanks to Vox for sharing this story with us.

i already knew she was interpreting an alabama shakes song before you said it. this is amazing!
Rommel Daniel Espinosa I KNOW! Best band EVER!
(Also u got 100 likes, but nobody replied)
Same. That riff.
Rommel Daniel Espinosa 200th like
Same, low key was like hell yeah when it played
Because you have heard that song before, and it has a specific intro with guitar, thats very common and happens in our everyday life that you cant even perceive. You associate beats with stop movement like drums and guitar with hand shake. I dont think a deaf person could "see" a song like we hear a song, thats very subjective.
Interesting stuff

If you'd like a little more Amber Galloway Gallego, let me just suggest her translation of "All I want for Christmas is you" th-cam.com/video/Qe03acaQ3-o/w-d-xo.html -joe
Vox maybe you guys should pin this comment so more people can see this!
Vox it
4:46 that was sick to be honest..that was lit for sure
Cool, might have also been nice to hear from a deaf person as well.
Agreed
I think what was especially interesting to me was the linguistic structure and syntax of ASL as its own fully-formed language, so fascinating
My asl teacher is very close with Amber and has signed several concerts with her as well. Amber is absolutely amazing and has really inspired many asl students to translate songs in the way she does. Love you Amber!
My fiance is deaf and I would LOVE to find a concert with an ASL interpreter then we could have more dates at concerts!
if you message the venue ahead of time, they have to either get you an interpreter, or give you a date that they will have one available. definitely look into it!!
@@cashakozlov3104 Thank you so much! I never knew that. You're awesome! I know when we go to the movies they have the Closed Caption devices, but a concert with an interpreter that signs with the emotions of the song would be awesome for him to experience! Thank you so much, again!
@@The_A_Cast No Problem!! Hope it works out. Of course not every interpreter is as great as Ms. Galloway (Yet!) but Hopefully they are still excellent as many many are!!
@@The_A_Cast an of course, if the first time isn't all that great, maybe the second time will be better! don't give up hope and just keep trying. if it's really bad try messaging the venue and let them know the interpreter was not up to standard. most are great though so don't be discouraged!!
@@cashakozlov3104 Thank you so much, again. We're defenitely looking foward to doing this. He loves feeling the bass of the music in the car, so to go to a concert and him being able to experience that would be so awesome!
Took ASL for three years, fantastic video that really summarizes the creative and interpretive aspect of song translation! Thanks Vox for doing your research
This is awesome.... it feels like turning the music into interpretive hand dancing and even though I could hear the music I felt entertained and I felt like I could feel the music.
I personally have hearing problems due to repeated sickness and ear damage as a child- I manage to function well enough though with daily embarrassments over things I didn't hear or things I misheard- or daily frustration by my family and loved ones who hate repeating things over and over like I'm purposely ignoring them. It makes things like even having a group lunch with friends difficult because the conversation is so static I can't hear enough to participate and just shake my head the whole time to pretend. I have to have closed captioning to comprehend movies and shows... and even though I can appreciate music- I can rarely actually understand most lyrics even in the most coherent songs. I have nightmares about my hearing getting worse and have spent a great deal of time thinking about certain things that deaf people don't really get to experience. I think this woman is doing a great thing in such a creative way and I hope she keeps it up.
bluesnow222 this comment really got to me
A late reply, but I have full hearing and even I'm excited for the potential this holds! Imagine one of these ladies collaborating with dance groups to choreograph multi-part performances to songs with multiple singers? It's exciting to think this could become its own form of performance art and I really hope it does!
She’s dope! I think she was the one who was able to keep up with Twista using sign language.
I’ve been to deaf events for my asl class and the music their is louder then any concert I’ve been too. Since dead people can’t hear the sound they love to feel the sound so the bass is turned up 100000% And the whole floor vibrates
I see so she’s impressive according to non deaf people I guess but what do deaf people think about her I would like to see a vid about this
I agree they should have included Deaf input. But for what it's worth, Amber is hard of hearing herself. She also has Deaf family and developed this ASL style with primarily Deaf people.
oh man, this is a good excuse for my dad to start signing to journey again. It seems like the ASL community is getting some light shed on them finally. theres a lot of expression in the language and its also interesting seeing how people sign outside of the states. id say most people that can sign are pretty expressive when they do it.
OMG Amber has an amazing version of 'Don't Stop Believing' on her channel! Please show your dad!!!!
Amber has incredible talent to be able to match her signs with the music in the rhythm. I shudder when I imagine how much time and practice it takes to be able to sign one full song, not to mention many more songs in a concert. Kudos to these people, I'm comfortable knowing that there are people in the world willing to bring the emotions of music to the deaf.
I'm deaf and while this is a "uplifting" video, interpreting music is kinda made up. normally, when a interpreter/deaf hear/read a word that not translatable we finger spell it but that would look funny and ineffective while interpreting music. therefore, the interpreter makes up a sign that no one know so unless there's some kind of standardized music sign language, every interpreter would be different. I seen dozens of "music" interpreting and I can only understand maybe 10% to 40% of it.
Maybe someone should publish a paper on it. Get the people in office, in universities, in both the deaf and hearing community involved
Oh, don't worry. I'm a hearing person and I can only understand about 10% to 40% of the lyrics of musics in the languages I speak
Yeah Ƿynnťari is right. We can't understand most of the songs either but I can definitely see how yours is more of a struggle. Just don't feel too bad about it. :)
Music is more about enjoying the sounds rather than understanding the lyrics. So the deaf version of music would probably also be more about enjoying the flow of the moves like a dance rather than understanding the lyrics. And just as hearing people may not like the sound of some music, even if they find the lyrics good, deaf people can totally also not like the moves of a 'singer'.
For one, music for the hearing world is also similar in that aspect. Many things in songs are made up or very abstract. Also, a good interpreter shouldn't be using "made up signs", they should be using full ASL with unique and descriptive classifiers and expression.
They should have interveiwed actual Deaf people about their thoughts on this.
I agree they should have included Deaf input. But for what it's worth, Amber is hard of hearing herself. She also has Deaf family and developed this ASL style with primarily Deaf people.
Let's talk about Deaf Wests revival of Spring Awakening where the whole musical was in asl or captioned on stage (as well as spoken) and how the choreographer literally made a language dance
that's what I thought of!!
I enjoy hearing a song along with the special way she signs . She is amazing
I am so inspired by these people. I’ve learned about 4 songs in ASL and it’s difficult. I know Believer, OCD song, Dollhouse, and Death of A Bachelor. I just started learning last year, but I’m trying to learn as quick as possible with still being accurate because I want a job that allows me to translate ASL.
Who gives a thumbs down to a video about helping deaf people experience music better? Honestly wondering.
Jon Watts nah man it’s just that us Deaf people don’t really like how she interprets.
So far there have been other deaf and hoh that have responded that they love it, I think you and maybe your friends don't like her way of signing. Do you do ASL, ESL or Pig sign?
Geez I love her sign language..finally someone came up with my idea..lol am just kidding..what I meant was I've always wished deaf people could feel music more than feel the beat... making deaf feel included even more.. cos they are pretty amazing people when you get to know them..🙂
Even though am hearing I find signlanguge intriguing..
My head is bursting with thoughts to the level that I can't comprehend,, like HOW? This is really amazing! MIND BLOWN!
Oh WOW! THIS IS FABULOUS!!! My best friend( since I was 6, now 50!) had both deaf parents. We were inseparable, and I became very good at signing, with her family( her family had special signs that were only theirs, like my name was a letter G, and shake it. We'd lazily sign, and be scolded we built half a house haha , because the sign take 2 hands. My friend is an interpreter, but doesn't get much work. I will show her this, and she can jam with the best of em. She'd be perfect. We use to sign songs all the time! But I love the personality added. This is so beautiful. I only wish her parents could be alive to experience it. Her dad could hear high pitch screech, and we'd come home to find him listening to radio ,slightly off the channel, and static. He'd be listening, with his hand on the radio. We loved to expose him to our music. Chili Peppers have been my favorite band since I was 17, now I'm 50, and still my fav. They have great bass( Flea) for deaf to enjoy. Bravo to you!!! I'm so excited and want to see you in action.
Whenever there's a great sign language interpreter at an event or even just a speech, I cant stop watching and I can feel even more emotion because of it if that makes sense.
Quite a few very close minded people in the comments. Just because someone experiences something differently doesn't mean it won't have as much of an impact 🙄
Why do people who cant here want or need music ????
... we can still enjoy music through vibrations n stuff
@@kevinlavin3269 I hope you only ask due to being curious as opposed to sarcastic.
@@kevinlavin3269 not all deaf people cant hear at all. Deafness like many other disabilities is a spectrum. Some people can hear a bit some people can hear certain tones and not others some people can hear but their brain cannot process the sounds in the way non deaf peoples brains do etc. they can enjoy music as much as they can or want to. and as another comment already pointed out, deaf people can enjoy the vibrations even if they cant hear it like we do.
@@kevinlavin3269 Why do people who does have the brain to thing straight want to know everything?
Man, I'm a huge fan of her work! Loved that you guys did a piece on her!
Just as a sidenote (and this is coming from someone with *no* hearing disability, so I may very well be wrong) - the video editing seems to be targeted to folks like me. There are many moments in the video that show two concomitant text outputs, which is not very welcoming if you have to take in the whole thing with your eyes only.
I think I saw Amber in 2016 at the GCN conference in Houston. She was interpreting for a concert with Mary Lambert. Absolutely wonderful work by her, and all of the interpreters around the country and globe for that matter. This sheds a beautiful light on the work it takes to be fully inclusive.
I was at burning man and I witnessed a group of deaf friends show up to a super heavy bass set and they all laid down near the speakers together and could feel the music,they were all smiling laughing and signing about how amazing it was. It was beautiful.
You should've seen her videos. SHE'S ICONIC.
Omg, that's awesome!!!
Faith in humanity a little bit restored :')
One of my favorite sign language videos on here! Thank you for taking the time to explain a few things!
I really love how she's signing as she's speaking; catching the bits of 'OK' and 'up-to-now' and 'must,' the listing on her hands as she moves from point to point; it really resonates with me as someone whose asl bleeds into my regular speech (or replaces it when i'm nonverbal).
YES VOX 👏
She is a literal hero as far as I am concerned, and I am not even deaf.
This just gives deaf people and deaf culture one more way to be included without having to necessarily force the notion of "fixing" or "intervening" medically to restore hearing, because many hearing people who don't understand the culture do not understand why anyone would choose against intervention (for example a cochlear implant) and would cite missing out on music as a good example of what you sacrifice- but that is NOT true!
What this woman is doing for deaf music has essentially the same function and pleasurable payoff as the mechanism of a beautifully crafted metaphor does to language.
This really feeds my love for sign. I've been fascinated by this since I was a kid
Sooooo freakin awesome!!!! I've been drumming for over 15 yrs, and have deaf siblings. Well I had a deaf little sis who passed but my little bro is here and deaf as well. I've always wanted them to be able to enjoy music like I do. I know they feel the vibrations, and can hear some low tones, but for me that couldn't be enough. This definitely will help bridge the gap so the deaf can enjoy music somewhat similarly to us with the gift of hearing. Never take anything you have for granted. Love u all
*This woman is a rock star!*
Joss Fong has such a soothing voice! Wish she publishes an audio book about randoms science topics
Our music videos are made by Estelle Caswell (not Joss) but yes, Estelle has a lovely voice :)
I love how passionate she is and the way she signs is amazing!
This was so super interesting! As a musician, I am surprised of how I never questioned myself about this issue and I think this lady is doing an awesome job. What a beautiful way to spend your life
I love ASL. Its so beautiful I want learn
5:07 thats too funny im sorry
I'm crying white people are so weird 😂
elijah rivers racist
elijah rivers I didn't know people of color can't be deaf and therefore can't enjoy or benefit from this
Lizzie Rings To be quite honest, I wasn't going to say anything but since you brought it up, black people have been doing this forever. When black folks. are called upon to sign to music, especially af-american music, they do all of this. They don't just interpret the words. It's not a new thing, they just do.
@@germyw Where did you hear that false information?
I love how she incorporates her hands like she would do in sign language. I feel like I am communicating with her in an intimate way. Thank you for being amazing.
My whole life I grew up in the same town and there was always this one mom, with a deaf daughter who's also my age, interpreting pretty much any event in town. And she always put in such emotion and attitude in everything, even matching tones in how people were speaking and I really admired it and even sometimes enjoyed watching her over the event. So since I grew up seeing that, it really blows my mind that an interpreter would put such little effort into conveying the emotion??? So I really think this video and Amber and other interpreters that make things fun for the deaf
Subtitles: *music*
Deaf people: *starts dancing like crazy*
Come here to see if she can do rap, not disappointed, quite impressed!
I love her. Everytime I had to sign a song for class I would look at her videos to help me with expressions and interpretations. Absolutely amazing😀
Before 1960, it was still a language. 😎 Beautiful interpretation! Love it!🥰🤟🏾
I’m an asl student wanting to be an interpreter and this kind of interpreter is hard to find their are so many that don’t take the time to do this
I'm taking an ASL class at my high school, and it's so cool to see this stuff. I'm doing a project where I have to sign a whole song, and it's fun yet difficult.
Armando Hernandez good luck! I remember I did that in high school because I was in an asl club and it's so much fun signing to music and songs
mirroredhour Thanks! It really is fun, and it's nice to see other people who've done the same!
that’s amazing, and how passionate she is about giving music to the people who can’t hear it. that’s beautiful.
Came here not expecting much, but left with high respect for this woman. What a smart and selfless person to go through all this just so others can enjoy one of the most amazing things of life: music

Hey Amber - you're the best! - in so many ways. Thank you from Australia. My daughter in Oz did a workshop with you while she was studying Auslan and she was so inspired by you and your attitude. All the best. You are a joy to watch and I'm not even a rap fan :)
Several years ago Brother Ali was performing at the St. Paul Capital. when he got up it dominated the crowd, his stage presence was awesome. But the his ASL interpreter was the best part of the show. Good to see that more people get a chance to see this cool side of art.
*Ears are great*
Bob McCoy
ears eyes nose mouth teeth tongue skin brain .... the human body is great
for anyone who speaks sign language: how was she? it's cool to look at, and it's an interesting concept, but it's literally a foreign language to me
I studied ASL interpreting and I enjoy her style. She’s clear, expressive, and the way she interprets metaphors and wordplay is impressive. I’m not a language expert, by any long stretch, but from a casual standpoint I really like her work.
She is very good. And she has to be, she's a professional ASL interpreter.
This is fantastic...I always felt interpreting music wasn't supposed to be so "bland"..i.e. Stand still and sign"music playing"..When the crowd is reacting to other cues... you are an amazing interpreter and I will be learning a lot from watching you! Finally, I feel I am given "permission" to interpret music the way it makes most sense! Thank you for posting this,
Wow. Watching this woman's passion and love for what she does just made my day. She's effing awesome!
[scary music]
Deaf people: AAAAAAAAAAA
“now you may recognize this riff”
me: bruh she’s just playing an air guitar
That was so much fun to watch, I feel it adds so much to the music. I don't enjoy rap that much but I had to watch again that rap interpretation.
I imagine that for dead people, seeing this interpretation instead of just the literal translation of the lyrics must feel like the diference between just reading the lyrics vs actually hearing the song.
Hope more interpreters start doing this because it was so much fun and deaf people deserve it.
We watch some of her videos in my ASL class! Great to learn more about her!
You lost a perfect opportunity to rickroll the viewers who don't know sign language. smh
Subtitels: [music]
Deaf people: 👯🙆💃
Wow, deep respect for this woman and all other sign language interpreters that do this. I am currently learning sign language and I love seeing this!
This is AMAZING! One of my lifegoals is to somehow learn ASL after an experience when I was working at a Subway and was the only person in the back that was comfortable going out to try and respectfully mime through making a sandwich step by step despite not veing able to directly communicate. It struck me just how much effort it must have taken her on a daily basis to readily compensate for Hearing culture despite there being so little effort or accommodation in most real life every day life situations and society outside of maybe closed captioning - and she was SO GRATEFUL that I not only tried, but took the time to make sure I understood what she wanted without rushing her and honestly given how my fellow employees found it too "awkward" to try I assume that she was used to that and I wished I had been able to do more.
Haven't figured out how to do it yet, but seeing stuff like this is so inspiring to me. What a wonderful way to positively impact the world!
She should perform beside the Rappers while singing their songs using this ASL thing.
Asl is a language not a ‘thing’
She does do that, that's literally her entire job 😂 Also, it's called ASL, it's a language. It's not "that ASL thing".

Once I was Lucy in a production of You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown and a group of deaf children came to see it and it was so cool to see the interpreter interpreting my singing and my lines so quickly. I felt she was more talented than I was
I love her so much she inspires me every day to work harder on my signing.. shes brilliant
