silk sonic is so fucking underrated !! like okay everyone ate up leave the door open for a couple weeks and now they ain’t no more but they should still be eating it up cause it’s SO GOOD i’m hoping this song gets the same attentionnn cause it deserves !!
Leave the door open actually did really well on the charts and had a lot of longevity and live performances. Its still doing well and has been predicted to win a grammy. You are right though that they deserve all the attention
I feel like the people who "don't like Bruno" haven't ever heard him. Getting those high notes THAT clean shows how much work he's put in enhancing his abilities.
@@dontbemad6460 i know for a fact that every artist has haters of their own but to the extent of delusional twt stans who compare one artist to the their faves based on charts but i didn't think that it's genuine hate like what I've seen on Taylor and other artists. but then again, we live in a world where that possibility simply exists.
@@eggsalad44Yes. Not to the extent as people like Taylor as you’ve said. Any haters really came from the ‘appropriation’ mess. But I think anyone who still believes that now is just delusional at this point.
@@silvabrothersmusic Not at all. Not an average listener would listen to SS. Only the people who have an in-depth idea of music is listening/playing SS
Bruno is a multi-instrumentalist and was introduced to bongos at a very young age because his father is a Latin percussionist. I saw a video of them playing together at one of Bruno’s concerts. I believe it was in Puerto Rico. Have you seen Bruno’s guitar playing in his Prince Tribute?
When he said better he means that when you smell BBQ you get hunger and you know your stomach starts to grumble and you want. That what he is saying when he says that the perfume smells better then BBQ. Meaning its much more attractive.
That „drrrrrr“ Instrument after the bridge is actually just a guitar slide with a fast picking… that’s a typical sound in soul, r&b music. U can also hear it in the beginning of leave the door open.
No man, it can be changed though, when you push it through, muscles change as it is!! I can’t tell an exact point for Bruno because he do smoke + he sang distorting his vocals for a long time, maybe that can be a * yes, it’s because of smoking. * who knows man, I wish he stops it.
I totally agree that Bruno's voice sounds more free. Much better than his earlier higher, tighter high notes. So much easier and more pleasant to listen to. You can say that his voice matured with age too.
I think for Bruno, it's so easy to hit a C5 and D5 notes... It's like his comfort zone..he can go higher than that.. He is an incredible vocalist.. I can barely name another male vocalist rn who can actually sing like Bruno
Yet he never sang any phrase higher than D5. Which is ok, because his falsetto is kinda disconnected, so apart from vocalizes he never does any 5th octave stuff.
"Skate" Songwriters: Bruno Mars, Anderson .Paak, D'Mile, James Fauntleroy, Domitille Degalle, and JD Beck Producers: Bruno Mars and D'Mile Music Video Directors: Bruno Mars and Florent Dechard FYI -- those are congas not bongos. Bruno's dad is a Latin percussionist, like his father before him, and Bruno has been around drums and other instruments his entire life.
This comment. Plus an extra thumbs up for pointing out the role of D`Mile in a subliminal way. Similiar to Leave the door open credits. That guys a beast too.Really kind of a super group.Concerning paaks vocal development, i highly recommend listening to Sadie by his back then moniker Breezy Lovejoy. Already good, but quite an evolution till today.
Is it just me? Bruno not only has a more full sound, but he sounds more in control and clear hitting that D5 than he did on previous songs and performances. I can't tell if he was just holding himself back then, or if he's just better trained now. 🤔
The reason why this song exists is because bruno really want to play the congas and it started from there, he mentioned this during an apple interview.
@@Rafael-xt1nm I CACKLED at this response because I have seen Anderson live 4 times and NOT once did his vocal performance fall flat. His NPR Tiny Desk is just a testament to how great his live vocals are.
@7:38 yessss! I've always felt he was holding himself back!!! Hearing little sneak peaks here and there of his full potential...is what has kept me a fan since those 2010 days. And I'm SO happy that this Silk Sonic project has proven his FULL potential. The live versions of "Leave The Door Open" blewwwwww meeeee awayyyyyyy. It's so nice to hear him belt so much 😭😭😭😭😭
When you smell good BBQ. You forget what your doing and stop in your tracks. Then you look around for where it's coming from and you hope it's coming from your yard. So if a girl stops you in your tracks and you looking for her and you forget what you are doing, that girl just rocked your world.
Tristan, listen. Silk Sonic is a band okay?? Yeah, everyone there is part of Silk Sonic, Bruno and Andy too are a part of Silk Sonic 😂 We won't kill you for not knowing all the members 🤷🏾♂️
You should do a reaction of "Calling all my lovelies" live from the Apollo... Bruno sounded extraordinary in that performance... Believe me it will blow your mind.. Please do a reaction
I don't no why but the duck sound effect is killing. Tristan's such a funny and genuine person, he makes me laugh at the random shit he says. Atp Tris is the only music reaction star, that I would watch even if i didn't know the artist . He's definitely from a another planet , he's an escape from the world . I just hope he doesn't stop what he's doing because he's fricking amazing at it . I love ur dumbass 😂❤
4:50, percussionist here Tristan!, I don’t know the actual name of it, but it’s this wooden block connected to curved metal rod that has a wood circle at the other end and, you hold it by the metal handle curve and slap it to make it shake and make that noise
I genuinely wanted to buy skates for a while, but this video literally made me want to buy one asap 😂 this MV is so feel good smiley and just all around LOVELY ✨💕
He’s so right because in songs like talking to the Moon it’s so low but then in skate it’s super high and talking to the Moon is just really old but one of the classics favs skiing is going to be one of the favorites to
The first time I saw Bruno Mars playing Congas was actually more than 5 years ago in a concert in San Juan , Puerto Rico. Bruno Mars father Played percussion in many bands in Hawaii..
Great reaction! So you know he said "you smell better than a BBQ" That's referring to the overall smell of going to an actual BBQ which if you have ever been is the best smell ever! He's not referring to actual meat, it's a metaphor🤦🏽♀️. The "dude" is Phredley Bruno's band member and guitar player. Bruno is playing the CONGAS not Bongos😂. Like your comment about not even Jesus can sing higher than Bruno😂 No Andy can't sing higher than Bruno tho😂but yes their voices really do compliment each other. Their modern twist especially using the congas make this disco sound even richer and takes it to another level. Bruno has a 4-5 octave range. And he's able to go higher than that as well. His voice has gotten more powerful and richer. You're right he was holding himself back when he was younger. He's really tapping into his full range. His vocals are sick.
That sound is a sprint verb, back in the day they used to use “Plate Reverb” in music often. You can replicate that sound by turning the pickup on a guitar all the way up and strumming fast while going up or down the string!!!!!
Micheal had just as big as a vocal range, he just choose to speak and sing in a lighter tone. Never wanting to reveal his "manhood" to the public as he wanted to keep up the childlike image to his fans.

It’s still very popular here in Belgium haha
This deserves more attention! It's much better than LTDO.

I don’t think underrated is the right word to use. They are extremely popular
Y'all really misusing words hastily, underrated my ass💀
I feel like the people who "don't like Bruno" haven't ever heard him. Getting those high notes THAT clean shows how much work he's put in enhancing his abilities.
I can't believe a person is NOT a Bruno Mars fan.
Weird, i've always thought Bruno was a universally loved artist like Adele
@@eggsalad44 mostly yeah. He’s very unproblematic. But you’ll be surprised how everyone has haters, even Adele

Not many notice, they are making history with this album. It's not even a joke. This is going to be one of the biggest album ever to come out
Is Silk Sonic getting played a lot in Sri Lanka??
@@silvabrothersmusic Not at all. Not an average listener would listen to SS. Only the people who have an in-depth idea of music is listening/playing SS

@@anishpamuru9550 Silk Sonic is not famous in my country
@@SriLankanStuff oh alright, that's fair
Can we just agree that Tristan is a whole mood.
Yessir
Absolutely!!
Exactlyyy
Yes 😂
His hair alone is a whole mood!
Anderson Paak. Just killed it here. And, everyone here should listen to his album "Malibu" Which is fantastic!
Bruno is fire as well
Malibu is 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Ventura is LIT!
@@jezylsebastian936 Yeah. Oxnard is really cool as well. But if I had to choose a fav, it would be Malibu
and Oxnard
"that dude' is Phredley Brown, he's been a part of Bruno's band for years :)

Daaamn, I’m really happy that people literally know who’s the best today 😍😍😍❤️!
These aren’t bongos, they are congas.
@@ppowell002 Thank you. Every time someone calls them bongos I just wanna scream. 😉
His mother and relatives in his mother side were Filipinos who are also talented singers
His brother is also a fairly renowned drummer
The real question is : what instrument does Bruno NOT play, he plays like 8 instruments ✨✨
he plays a lot more than 8 I'm p sure, that dude is a miracle
He plays 12 instruments
Btw Bruno was saying that she smells better than a BBQ not like a BBQ. Huge difference.
😂😂
@@taetaespineapple8990 It's not literal, it's a metaphor. It wasn't meant to be taken seriously.🌝
When he said better he means that when you smell BBQ you get hunger and you know your stomach starts to grumble and you want. That what he is saying when he says that the perfume smells better then BBQ. Meaning its much more attractive.
@@chi2twn ik I was just laughing at how Tristan was analyzing the lyrics😂
@@taetaespineapple8990 Oops, on second glance I now see that I misdirected my original comment to you in the first place. I need a nap.🥴
Anderson is just so JOYFUL! I love watching him perform. Been on the edge of my seat for Silk Sonic’s album for so long nowwww
That „drrrrrr“ Instrument after the bridge is actually just a guitar slide with a fast picking… that’s a typical sound in soul, r&b music. U can also hear it in the beginning of leave the door open.
Bruno's voice has gotten deeper and stronger, compared to his softer voice earlier in his career I think it's because he smokes.
No man, it can be changed though, when you push it through, muscles change as it is!!
I can’t tell an exact point for Bruno because he do smoke + he sang distorting his vocals for a long time, maybe that can be a * yes, it’s because of smoking. * who knows man, I wish he stops it.
Just the way you are
It could also be age he's in his mid 30's now I think and he was in his 20's when he realized his first album.
Lets not forget that really high note when he sang Grenade.
"Do you really think I could fake a face like this"
**Proceeds to do a fake shocked reaction**
"I don't think Jesus can sing as high as Bruno". lmao Adel has said she can't sing high as Bruno. Great reaction!
Silk Sonic is underrated! They deliver every time 🔥 love Bruno of course
Love Anderson as well
they are def not underrated lol
“That sound” is a vibraslap. A really fun percussion instrument.
When you smell a good BBQ in the wind its mouth watering...so being better than a BBQ means you're irresistible.
I totally agree that Bruno's voice sounds more free. Much better than his earlier higher, tighter high notes. So much easier and more pleasant to listen to. You can say that his voice matured with age too.

Couse he born a girl
@@speedyspeeduli3823 oh please. Don’t hate
@@seekingtruth1874 i wont. I named my cat 9years old Bruno too. Check closely then u will realize that. Great music anyway
Yet he never sang any phrase higher than D5. Which is ok, because his falsetto is kinda disconnected, so apart from vocalizes he never does any 5th octave stuff.

Domi, jd beck and James Fauntleroy too!
Bruno and MJ, quite similar in that they hit 5th octave notes rather consistently and easily for them being males
If they have songs like Leave the door open and now skate then, that's how you know their album is going to be so good
The casual way Tristan says things like “Tie me up daddy and let’s get into this review” is why I will always come back 😭🤣
Lowkey kinky
"But then again, i dont think Jesus can sing as high as Bruno" LMAOOO i laughed out loud
It’s just Silk Sonic as a whole.
When Tristan makes that smile it means he is liking the song or its growing on him.
Is it just me? Bruno not only has a more full sound, but he sounds more in control and clear hitting that D5 than he did on previous songs and performances. I can't tell if he was just holding himself back then, or if he's just better trained now. 🤔
I couldn't stop smiling when I first heard the song. Hell, every time I listen. Glad to see I'm not alone.
Eeeeverybody smiles at the first 3 seconds of Leaves the door open and Skate
Finally somebody on TH-cam has said what I've always said about Bruno's impossible voice.
I just can’t express how much I love this. Bruno Mars so overdue for music! This just makes me smile and their voices are just beyond
The reason why this song exists is because bruno really want to play the congas and it started from there, he mentioned this during an apple interview.
"his voice is in a league that i can't touch"
I could listen to Anderson Paak ALL day. His voice is bonkers
Doesn’t sing well in live performances though. Bruno on the other hand sings just as well if not better live.
@@Rafael-xt1nm chile, he sounds better live. Idk what you're saying.

His whole family are musicians.
Just what I was going to say. This is not his 1st time playing bongos
@@sherrymckinney5106 those aren’t bongos. They are congas.
@@cwrigh08 Excuse Me. I'm a few letters off. I am not latino. I did know his father played them.
No music has made me happier in recent years. And in these increasingly crazy and harsh times, that's priceless...
Definitely would say that Bruno’s song Gorilla (towards the end) gives the belting vibe that you were talking about. Btw lovin’ the content 😭❤️
Bruno has my entire heart 😩❤️

me, with no musical knowledge whatsoever: yep absolutely, exactly what i was thinking

the album's gonna be bomb
Thank you so much for consistent and amazing content, Tristan 🥺🥺❤️
Best music I have heard come out in forever. I smile so hard when I hear this I cry. This will be the album of the year and it's not even out yet.
OMG THIS IS TTH EARLIEST I HAVE EVER BEEN AHH IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO
5:21 i Love This 😂 Bruno Range is so crazy 😭😭 he's amazing that's relly high 😵 it's insane!!
I'm liking this more than LTDO. I hope this gets more airplay and a spot in the billboard hot 100 top 10.
Is this 2021 or 1975? I love the recreation of soul and funk.
IKR this sounds like mid 70s soul/funk, like the music my parents listened to growing up
Hit me exactly the same 🔥
1975.
Been waiting for your reaction Triston. I love how you break down the vocals of both Anderson Paak and Bruno Mars.
Hope you are reacting to the whole album when it comes out 🥺🥺
If it does
“Not even Jesus can sing higher then Bruno” PLS that made me crack up😩
*higher
The song sounds like it will be a classic bop every 50 years into the future.
Bruno Mars is just on another level!!! 🔥🔥🔥👌
Tristan, listen. Silk Sonic is a band okay?? Yeah, everyone there is part of Silk Sonic, Bruno and Andy too are a part of Silk Sonic 😂 We won't kill you for not knowing all the members 🤷🏾♂️
Actually only Bruno and Paak together are silk sonic
You should do a reaction of "Calling all my lovelies" live from the Apollo... Bruno sounded extraordinary in that performance... Believe me it will blow your mind.. Please do a reaction
"...ohhhh baybaaaay...please
..puh-leeeeaaaassse..."
Tus videos son lo máximo, Tristán! Un gran abrazo desde Perú, btw apenas vi la notificación vine al toque a ver el video jajaja ✨
Tristan saying "ooooohhhh" seeing chocolate cake 8s giving me ALLL the giggles!!
Leave the door open and skate keep reminding me of old magical girl anime like sailor moon and especially the music in cardcaptor sakura
I don't no why but the duck sound effect is killing. Tristan's such a funny and genuine person, he makes me laugh at the random shit he says.

It's called a vibraslap but in the music it's just a muted guitar with delay effect
Incredible how you put the notes together after so many years
"I don't know if I want somebody smellin' like meat" TOOK ME OUT!!!! 🤣😂
tristan never say tie me up daddy ever again PLEASE AND THANK YOU
i've never clicked on anything so fast.
Bruno has gotten better. Anderson is just as amazing..
Bruno’s been playing bongos since age 5, along with drums, piano and guitar! He’s multi talented
I love the old school sound they’re bringing back
tristan keeps us well fed with content
bro he didn't change his vocals he grew uppp love your channel btw ❤∞
I'm literally here to look at Tristan's facial reaction
I mean, he's like an emoji provider 😂😂
The sound you couldn't identify is a muted rhythm guitar. It was used at the beginning of this song and at the beginning of Leave The Door Open.
Tristan is hands down the best vocal coach I’ve seen on yt 😊😌
roomie official too but he quited last month
@@psychx7087 he will be back. Better Than Ever!!
I genuinely wanted to buy skates for a while, but this video literally made me want to buy one asap 😂 this MV is so feel good smiley and just all around LOVELY ✨💕
You got my like the second you mentioned Barry White and that "ohhh"!! Definitely agree!!! 😂
Silk sonic is king of swag, king of punch lines 🤣, king of silkyness.
" I doubt Jesus can sing like bruno 🤣🤣.
Dude. "Better than a BBQ" is a perfectly clear concept.
i absolutely love anderson.paak, i'm so glad you've finally discovered his music!

silk sonic is so underrated. they are bringing back 70/80s music!!!!!!
Smell better then a barbecue is a classic “old black uncle at the cookout” kind of line. Cheesy for sure, but endearing nonetheless lol
when he said ''tie me up daddy' i laughed so hard!!!!
Congas Tristan, not bongos haha
loved the analyses of Bruno's voice btw, but yes this is the duo the world needed
The first time I saw Bruno Mars playing Congas was actually more than 5 years ago in a concert in San Juan , Puerto Rico. Bruno Mars father Played percussion in many bands in Hawaii..
You’re vibing to this song makes my day
They just keep bringing the good vibes
4:55 that instrument is a hand instrument that you hit against your knee and the ball on a short rod bounces rapidly up against a wooden spine.
Tristan called Congas Bongos😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣
You should listen to Michael Jackson's carousel (unreleased), the bridge is where you can see Michael Jackson belting real high
Tristan it’s 1am 😭
SilkSonic is just smooth af lol..
i was waiting for this one!!!
I’ve been waiting for this one 💀
Great reaction!
So you know he said "you smell better than a BBQ" That's referring to the overall smell of going to an actual BBQ which if you have ever been is the best smell ever! He's not referring to actual meat, it's a metaphor🤦🏽♀️.
The "dude" is Phredley Bruno's band member and guitar player.
Bruno is playing the CONGAS not Bongos😂.
Like your comment about not even Jesus can sing higher than Bruno😂
No Andy can't sing higher than Bruno tho😂but yes their voices really do compliment each other.
Their modern twist especially using the congas make this disco sound even richer and takes it to another level.
Bruno has a 4-5 octave range. And he's able to go higher than that as well. His voice has gotten more powerful and richer.
You're right he was holding himself back when he was younger. He's really tapping into his full range. His vocals are sick.
Thank you 🙏🏾. I love your breakdown of the reaction!
I didn’t know they introduced a new song together omg they are a amazing together
That sound is a sprint verb, back in the day they used to use “Plate Reverb” in music often. You can replicate that sound by turning the pickup on a guitar all the way up and strumming fast while going up or down the string!!!!!

2:10 Man, he said BETTER than a BBQ, not LIKE a BBQ ;)
The music is so smooth that the coefficient of friction into your ears is actually a negative number.
Please do an analysis of Bruno’s voice over the years. He is just so amazing. There are plenty of live performances.
