Wasn’t this just a reset. People together admiring pure talent. Pure talent truly happy to perform. Just wonderful vibes all round, something we miss and crave. More of this for everyone!
I didn’t necessarily listen to Ariana. But over time I have heard a bunch of stuff from her and can not help but to like and respect her talent! I always liked pop and r’n’b and dance etc. but seeing what she can do is just so amazing. So much talent!
She didn't get married the day before this, she just posted her wedding pics right before this performance. I'm not sure when she got married, maybe a week or two before the performance. Idk. There were rumors like a week or two before she actually confirmed it by posting the pictures so idk.
the live performance was actually pre-recorded and ari got married on the 15th of may, if you notice on her wedding photos her arm tattoos were covered with make up and in this performance her tattoos are still covered so it's possible she performed this literally before or after her wedding (others also speculated that you can see her wedding band with her engagement ring in the performance but it's not that visible if there really is a wedding ring)
in the original remix ariana says the “i don’t know why i run away” and it goes right before the whistle but in this performance abel took that part so that ariana didn’t have to come back in until the whistle (like you said, it would be hard to go to the whistle from a low run)
She moves her jaw fluidly because she is probably so relaxed and because she can. Or maybe moving her jaw is what keeps her relaxed. Regardless, she is on another level.
He sings a lot more classically than I would’ve expected when he’s live, at least in the beginning before moving to higher notes. Also he has one of the best exclamation “yah/ah/woo’s” IMO, so soft yet crisp
I was taught to plié slightly (relaxing down into whenever I was having issues throwing my head up/going on my toes to reach high notes. I hated it at first, but now I feel like I can support those notes better because I’m focusing on my breathing and relaxing, rather than straining to reach.
Hi Sam, you should react to Måneskin! They’re an Italian group which won the Eurovision this year! You should listen not only to the song they won with (“Zitti e Buoni”) but also to other songs like “Torna a casa”, “Coraline”, “Chosen” and others.. Hope you will!
I love Abel and have never liked Ariana's music that much, but no denying she has a stellar voice. They sound great together and looked like they were relaxed and had a ton of fun. 🙂
I love when people become famous early on because you can listen to the changes in their voice over the years. I was blown away by Ari from the first song (thought she was Mariah at first!) and couldn't wait to hear what she would sound like later. Such a great artist. 👍 Thanks, Sam, for another great video!
I recognised first Ariana’s jaw drop in her “no tears left to cry” music video and I thought that might be my key for me to understand how to sing “A” and “O” it didn’t quite work for me but I’m curious to experiment. To be frankly I think “A” and “O” are the hardest vocals to sing although they seem like the easiest lol
omg i searched yesterday for this performance in your channel, and today, after having such an exhausting day, i am seeing that u actually reacted to it 😭😭 met u last week, and i’m seeing all the old videos on my free time. i’m mesmarized with your job, didactics and sweetness, such a great video btw
I love what you said about needing to feel joy to really succeed at something! I can't sing for shit but I've recently started drawing and painting again and I do want to someday make a career out of it. so even though right now I'm constantly seeing people be infinitely better at art than I am that just pushes me to practice more because I genuinely love creating art :)
it's great to see the analysis from a vocal coach. There are definitely a lot of subtlety that we as audience don't appreciate that go a lot into a great performance!
Hi Sam, could you please react to Go_A "Shum" from the Eurovision song contest? The singer uses some old slavic singing technique and it is really cool!
Besides the great singing, what I also really love about this performance is how they interact witch each other. Like, they're really performing this together, emphasis on "together", it's just so open, natural and very authentic. Both are having a great time and that makes it sound so much better to me. I don't listen to Ariana Grande at all and don't know, what else she's doing but the deeper parts are fantastic, so rich and full, still loud but not unpleasant or forced in any way.
The JOY is an amazing observation to share! I ADORE these two together!!!!! This song never gets old!!!!!! EVERY morning in the car en route to work it helps me embrace the day!!
Every other vocal coach on this damn site is just a clout chaser and teaches you nothing. Sam is so positive while also providing genuine analysis! I love this community
Could you do something Eurovision, please? There were some great vocals this year! I'm pretty sure Gjon's Tears “Tout l'univers“ should be the most interesting for you as a vocal coach, because his falsetto is just so damn good and the transitions between head and chest voice are insane. It's a very technical song. Barbara Pavri - voilà (french chanson), Destiny - Je ne Casse, Ana Soklic - amen, Eden Alene - Set me Free (Whistle notes!) and of course the winner Måneskin - Zitti e buoni (glam rock) are all worth a reaction.😁
10:54 you nailed it here. "For the act itself..." I've started playing out recently and performing in front of people that really vibe and engage in what you're doing, is the best!
I'm also never off The Weeknd it's personally my favorite singer but when I'm not listening to him it's : 6lack, Joji, Sampha, Don Toliver, the neighbourhood, SZA, HER, dvsn, Daniel Caesar, Billie, Travis, Giveon or Childish Gambino (:
I'm one of those people that's bias against both of these singers just because it's not music I enjoy (Prefer Ariana from the Victorious era), but there's no denying they're both on a whole different level in terms of ability.
I came to the conclusion that her jaw movements are just mechanical way to shape vowels into some of her runs. It works in giving a more distinct sound to each individual notes. But she does't seem to NEED to do it, she can produce great runs in the more conventionnal way. I guess its just preferences and she likes to switch between them. (plus it gives some more dramatic visuals points tbh lmao)
best performance for both of them. I think arianas annunciation was amazing here, where I don’t usually get that from her. His voice also sounded so strong and faultless when I don’t usually get that from him. I love these performances where artists are just enjoying themselves and not staging full on circus acts.
Neither of these two are really my cup of tea. However, the joy! They are captivating together, and the response of the crowd looks like they are overwhelmed by what they are experiencing. Pure magic. It must have been amazing to be there.
This still deserves a Grammy... Anyway I just wanted to say that I binge watched all, or well, a lot of your Harry Styles reaction videos and I loved them. Would you ever do a Louis Tomlinson reaction too? That would be so cool. Especially a reaction for "Only The Brave". Thank you
Maybe Abel is developing himself into a modern day Julio Iglesias with the black tie, he going after a high degree of respect at a global level, we’ll see !
Hey Sam I think it’d be cool if you did a video on Bo Burnham’s Inside. I know it’s not live/has a lot of “autotune,” but he reminds me a lot of James Corden with how he has a surprisingly good voice and can hit higher notes at a quiet volume.
ur comment about the jaw thing is so important! i suffer from TMJ and its literally impossible to move my jaw like that let alone open it wide LOL. loved the video!
@@bradpitti5406 Discussing technique about someone else like this, or singing a swanky duet. I was only ever his stage manager, & we never sung a real duet, just a show (or two?) together. Sam's always been great to talk music with.
Please react to Chloe Bailey's performances of her rendition of Feeling Good by Nina Simone! The first performance was on ABC and the second performance was on GMA. I think as a music teacher, you would really appreciate her vocal ranges
think my biggest obsession in life will be how ariana grande sings live. she always brings something new to a performance !
THIS. she does it so effortlessly too
her musicality is unmatchable. she can literally make note changes for a song in different performamces
@@pessimisticcatto1121 right !! and they are usually so different from the original vocal. a talent !
@@pessimisticcatto1121 Truee
THIS.
Wasn’t this just a reset. People together admiring pure talent. Pure talent truly happy to perform. Just wonderful vibes all round, something we miss and crave. More of this for everyone!
A complete reset. Beautiful singers and an audience going apesh*t for them. So refreshing.
I love her tone here! This sounds like a woman singing instead of a young girl. I love the more mature sound of her voice. Absolutely beautiful!!
Same I hope she sticks to it
So so excited I think I could make funs of it, it glittery so badly!
You're such a beautiful looking woman, it will be an amazing to get in touch with you if you don't mind!
My favorite part was the "I realize that it's much too late". Mesmerizing
I agree!
IMY, this is a better collab than "Love Me Harder". This song really compliments their voices in a very unique way.
“Love Me Harder” crawled so “Off the Table” and “Save Your Tears Remix” could run.🥲🥲🥲
@@armykayla9971 true this is so accurate
I didn’t necessarily listen to Ariana. But over time I have heard a bunch of stuff from her and can not help but to like and respect her talent! I always liked pop and r’n’b and dance etc. but seeing what she can do is just so amazing. So much talent!
you should listen to sweetener and positions then! sweetener has a few r&b influenced songs, and positions is pretty much completely r&b influenced. 🤍
Facts shes a queen 💗💕👑
@@yourmomwantsme0 and yours truly thooo
check out other side of the game, rim shot, and a.d. 2000 by erykah badu!! her genre is neo soul and it’s the best thing ever
She didn't get married the day before this, she just posted her wedding pics right before this performance. I'm not sure when she got married, maybe a week or two before the performance. Idk. There were rumors like a week or two before she actually confirmed it by posting the pictures so idk.
She got married may 15th I believe

@@sofiaanjelik she does have a wedding band on in this performance!! So it was probably a day or a few days after!! 😅
Was Pete Davidson invited?
I SO prefer this ari.....it’s so much prettier imo. Gorgeous.

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG THANK YOU SO MUCH SAMMM
X2
I can't save my tears for another day because I'm a sobbing mess just when I see live performance and audience totally vibing 😭😭😭
Same. I surprised myself with how emotional it made me feel 😢
Saaaaame! That audience gave me life 🥺
@@jaygibbs_ Love seeing young people having fun 💜Very talented,love the song💜
I had no idea this track was by these two. It sounds like something straight out of the 80s. I should know, I lived it x
The 70s/80s style music is back in right now
She moves her jaw fluidly because she is probably so relaxed and because she can. Or maybe moving her jaw is what keeps her relaxed. Regardless, she is on another level.
I loved Abel's laugh of delight too!!! What a joy. Thanks for reviewing Sam. Awesome as always.
He sings a lot more classically than I would’ve expected when he’s live, at least in the beginning before moving to higher notes.
Also he has one of the best exclamation “yah/ah/woo’s” IMO, so soft yet crisp
I also love his exclamation. they're so powerful and with such an "open" sound I guess
@@lucasrodriguesdossantosval103 but never forced! I love how they’re always so natural
I love it so badly!
Abel and Ariana were singing like the rent was due. I was so amazed by their vocals🤩
It's the "brush your teeth before you go to bed tonight" for me🕺🏾💃🏽🕺🏾💃🏽🤣❤
I feel so called out
I was taught to plié slightly (relaxing down into whenever I was having issues throwing my head up/going on my toes to reach high notes. I hated it at first, but now I feel like I can support those notes better because I’m focusing on my breathing and relaxing, rather than straining to reach.

And the song Le Parole Lontane
@@Sinikkastudio yasss and also to all the other songs from the album and covers, but I wrote the ones that I think are the best ahahah
You are seriously one of the best vocal teachers out there!! Everything you say makes so much sense and your attention to detail is amazing

I love when Sam demonstrates the techniques with his own voice! I forget his singing voice is lovely
Yes!!! Been waiting for this! I love this performance so much, the fact that they look so happy brings me joy.
So glittery!
ahh that part about having joy in the act of singing itself!!!!!!! yes!!!!!

Gotta give it up to the audience 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 They were feeling the song, vibing along, and their reactions really hit me hard 🥺

The massive smile on your face says it all She’s awesome
Sam i just discovered your channel and i'm obsessed man. I come back here everyday😭
i dont know how many effects there could be in Ariana's microhone but she's always perfect live, holy damn
She's an easy artist to tell when it's live cuz she's like laughing and saying things she's not supposed to in like half her live performances 😅
@@chrisofstars her "shEesh" "baByYy" and the legendary "yUh"
I think the whistle part was made louder because whistles are quieter
@@uhok4898 well i dont mean effects like - not live - there are a lot of effects you can use just to make a voice sound better
@@Gabriellalal I dont think so tbh. Theres vids of her singing in her room or in the car ect and she sounds the same.

Would love to see your reaction of the winners of Eurovision 2021: Måneskin!♥️ The singer has a very particular voice!
Quite honestly the two best singers of all time on one stage :))
Are you like 12 of all time lol not even close
The satisfaction the video is exactly 12 minutes
Your reactions just make me smile lol this performance was phenomenal
Naturally glitter!

They both harmonize so beautifully together. Beautiful voices. They should do more music together ❤
I WAS WAITING FOR THIS !! THANK YOU SO MUCH OH MY GOSH

Always love how Ariana and Camila both have a different vocal performance to the recorded version 😭💗
