as MUCH as i loved Scott, i have to appreciate Johnson's tenacity, for, in this band, over40+ years he's sounded as if the next phrase will kill his voice...ROCK-ON!!
@@alexandrorocca7142 BON SCOTT wrote all the lyrics on BIB and FTATR albums. The second inferior AC/DC is 1983 - 2020. When they tour for the last 40 YEARS they do 90% BON SCOTT songs. AC/DC owes everything to BON SCOTT!!! EVERYTHING!!!
Well Brian sounds like a human electric guitar. As if he's gargled with sulfuric acid. As much I like Bon Brian is much more distinctive and fits the gritty sound of AC/DC perfectly.
@Bad Boys Boogie Those BIB and FTATR tracts are all Bon Songs from the "Brian era." 90% Bon Songs for the last 40 years. Nothing off Flick, Fly, Blow Up. Thank you BON SCOTT!!! Tell the truth AC/DC!!!
I think the vocal health thing is interesting. I don't think anyone can say that Brian Johnson has a good technique, a healthy technique and so on. But somehow he has managed to do this for 50 years, never cancelling because of vocal problems. It was the hearing that became an issue in the end.
His voice has definitely changed over the years, most noticeably after the Razors Edge album when it declined, but I think the main factors are age and smoking
@@acethetitan i get your point but - almost all male vocalists have this "aging" at the age of 50+ , funny enough more than female singers , and you can listen to many bands and will notice exaclty that the voice is declining / changing
His voice has changed slightly... but its impressive how close it still is. Listen to The Boss if you wanna hear this type of singing totally gone to the pasture. I love Bruce, but he sounds about 1/16th as good as he used to. Brian can still rock baby!
I saw AC/DC back in 2015 & man it was so much fun!!! They never take themselves too seriously but they are tight musicians who can play their instruments. As soon as the bell rang the crowd lost it(Sydney, Australia where I saw them) There is a reason why they have been so successful for all these years
So good AC-DC. please React: 2021 em uma musica - Inutilismo. By: Lucas Vinicius, He is a Brazilian, artist, comedian, and the best singer of the world 🌎.
For me Brian's voice is one of the most interesting out there. It has changed a lot throughout the years: 70's to early 80s: Lots of insanely high notes, sustanence and versatlity. This was Brian's prime, more than a match for a young Robert Plant. ex. Back in Black mid 80s: Rugged and heavy, especially live. ex. Fly on the Wall late 80s to early 90s: Less heavy, allowing for higher notes again, but he sounds brutal. Slightly different pronounciation and his screams start to sound restrained. ex. Thunderstruck mid 90s: Probably his most rugged and brutal sound. No clearity at all, but he sounds more soulful and bluesy than ever. Less sustained notes and a barking delivery. ex. Ballbreaker early 00's: His last 'screaming' years, sounding clearer again. As he ages he trades power for more soul and blues. Ex. Stiff Upper Lip late 00's to mid '10s: Screams and shouts are mostly replaced with soulful, sometimes even clean singing, with more versatility. Downtuned guitars to accomodate his voice from now on. Ex. Black Ice and this video early 20's: A rougher sound due to age and experience, gaining an edge he lost when he stopped his screams. ex. Realize He's not focused on technical stuff but still has managed to pull through at all times and adapt, giving his all. His soul and authenticity are all that matter, as you said. AC/DC is blessed to have Brian Johnson!
Brian is amazing. Understand this is an hour into a live show, and he was close to 70! The fact that younger singers like A. Rose had to stick more with the Bon era to be able to tour with AC/DC says it all. Brian walks on stage like he’s walking into your living room after not seeing you for years.

I’d have to say Brian is somewhat of a “technical “ singer if you go back pre AC/DC before his vocals started to break down. If you haven’t listen to him sign for Geordie, I suggest it!
He must be doing some right with taking care of his voice because he was 63 years old doing this at River Plate in 2009 and they just dropped a new album in November last year 2020 and he was 73 then and he still sounds exactly the same as he did in 1980!!!!! Awesome is all I can say!!!!! So says Austin Tx!!!!🎸🎸🎸😎🍸
I really like when Brian Johnson gets any attention, as I think he's a very underrated rock vocalist, but it kills me when people use performances way past his prime. Not that it isn't fair to do so. It's just that I'd love to hear what they would think of him from his Geordie years, or from his best performances with AC/DC on either Back in Black or For Those About to Rock. I've never seen any vocal coach react to the studio versions of Shoot to Thrill or another song that really showed off his range like Snowballed.
Brian Johnson may not be a technical singer but I very seriously doubt if many of the "technical vocalists" that are being alluded to by Beth could match what Brian does with his voice.
Hell yes, AC/DC! It doesn't get much better. Brian has so much soul in his voice. If you haven't seen it watch "Whole Lotta Rosie" from this same concert.
Have you ever reacted to ACDC 's original singer's vocals. Bon Scott ? He had a really cool sneaky mischievous voice. Very unique voice that was perfect for hard rock music.
Brian’s voice has naturally transformed as any part of the body over 40 some years . But the essence of it is as good, gritty, scratchy as always. If anything it has matured and gotten warmer. When Angus and Malcom first went to listen to Brian Angus’s first reaction was “Is someone using a chainsaw? He’s perfect!”
AC/DC has a sound that can never be compared to any other form of rock-n-roll. Brian Johnson is truly a perfect fit, and completes the hardcore sound that is recognized all over the world!!! AC/DC forever!
If you want to hear Brian Johnson with clean vocals check out his band Geordie before he was in ACDC. Particularly check out their cover of House of the Rising Sun!
Learn the basics, but the more "you" it is, the better. Probably the best summation of your role as a vocal coach. And there's no doubt, anytime you hear Brian Johnson it's uniquely him
If you’d like to hear Brian Johnson show off some incredible vocal skills from his early days you NEED to listen to Geordie - House of the Rising Sun, it’s really hard to believe it’s the same individual singing
"Do you want to go see an elderly man dressed in a school boy uniform doing a strip tease?" Of course I'd love to see AC/DC live! Angus Young is a god, or a demon or whatever with his guitar btw 😁
I Love AC/DC, unique talent. Brian is an amazing lead singer. Curiosity Back in Black album which has this song in, is the number 1 all time rock selling album ever, more than 40 million units worldwide(2nd all time single album only behind Michael Jackson Thriller). ohh yeah not our beloved Beatles, Stones or Zeppelin. AC/DC kick ass!!
Bugs me too, only these River plate reaction all the time, why? Show them in their prime sometime, especially if you're going to analyze what makes him, him. Makes very little sense.
Brian Johnsons voice has changed over the years. He could sing much higher when this song was first recorded in 1980. But as the years have gone on his voice changed. And he doesn't try to sing the way he used to. He sounds like a Chicago blues singer now, and it works !!!!
Well i can deffenately say AC/DC is one of the bands that hasn´t ever sold anything with sex 😂. They doesn´t realy care what someone thinks how they lookalike. Everything is just about the music, feeling and talent how do they perform. And btw not many bands have them own bell! How cool is that 😁?! Brians voice is unique just like Bon had too. They don´t sound the same but the spirit with these singers have always been over the top.
I was worried about you reacting to acdc because we know brian is not some slick well produced classically trained talented singer. He never has or nobody has claimed he was. What he is...... is real. It sounds like you GET that. He is not trying to dazzle anybody. He is just doing his thing and its awesome. Agnus is not some amazing guitarist either in my opinion....but he is probably in my top five favs because he just kicks ass, has so much fun and puts on a SHOW! Freakin love this band live!!!!
Thanks, Beth! Loved this so much. Brian is one of my favorite singers. PLEASE do more AC/DC! Music videos, live, anything would be so cool to get your insight on. (I do wish you did the album version of this song--it's one of the best rock vocals ever recorded!)
The funny thing about Brian Johnson is, he was a better singer in Geordie. When he joined AC/DC, he uses the same vocal style in every song. When he's singing a rip-roaring song like Shake a Leg or a ballad like Spellbound, he sings exactly the same. He used a lot more range and diversity of style in Geordie.
I love how on the album version they mess with your brain right from the start. The bells go on long enough for your brain to recognize the pattern and think of the bell as being on the “one” beat. Then the guitar comes in and it turns out the bell is on the second beat. Your brain recognized the perspective has shifted but at first you don’t know why.
Brain can be more technical but it just doesn’t fit their style of raw power and grit. You can hear his voice more when he was in Geordie before ACDC. But there is nothing better than when Brain just reaches down and belts it’s out with everything he has with the guitars turned up to 11. It just would t be the same if he stayed in control and kept it clean and technical. It’s important to fit the style of music and the end result you want. At the end of the day the point of music is to be pleasing to the ear and you can get that many ways with many formulas.
As a kid I was (and still am) a prog rock lover. So I didn't consider hard rock as real music. But now, I reckon that any kind of music of this era is so much better than 99% of the music produced nowadays.
Saw someone compare Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra, and said the same thing. While one is far more technical, the other is just as good b/c he leans heavy into what he does well and it sounds just as good, and it gives a different feeling to the listeners b/c of it. IMO you are correct finding "your" voice is very on point when it comes to singing.
As amazing as this live version is, reality is his performance vocally on the original back in black release is freakishly otherworldly great. Every song is immaculately perfect, the greatest modern era rock n roll album. There is no comparison between this and that, especially in headphones.
I hope youll check out a live performance with Acdcs late singer, Bon Scott. He sang every note like it was his last, and on the live in Paris dvd from 1980, sadly it was
I'm 56 and still love to turn the radio up loud in my car and just jam to good ole rock music! Now, when my wife is in the car, let's just say, her taste and my taste in music is different. Lol
I feel the same applies in many fields of life, you can be technically brilliant which is impressive. But who is moved by technical brilliance? Did it ever reduce you to tears in a couple of phrases?
Beth, I watch a few vocal coaches on TH-cam and one thing is certain. Many of you have or are developing an appreciation for metal/hard rock, especially the classic bands. It's nice that you can appreciate and give kudos to singers that as you say aren't technically masterful but still deliver something that's true to them or the genre. AC/DC and Brian Johnson clearly didn't do it wrong, neither did Bon Scott. Actually there's a thing, I don't recall (I may be wrong) seeing you reviewing a Bon Scott track, that would be interesting.
If it hasn't been said yet, check out the band Geordie to hear Brian's regular voice. He started singing like this to mesh better with AC/DC's style and to do the songs Bon sang.
I recently noticed that Chris Cornell has this same sound of voice in Cochise. I caught myself saying "Man, his voice is so amazing", then making the connection that he sounds just like Brian Johnson in parts of that song. What do you think Beth?
Great video Beth. I love how you acknowledge and appreciate both Brian Johnson and AC/DC for what and who they are - a Rock and Roll band. Not a technical singer, and compare that to the original recording quite a difference. Each to their own and what suits them. How do you maintain your vocal health when you might be both a smoker and a drinker and on the road for 18 months plus the natural decline due to the ageing process? Thinking Lemmy here too. Then there is Chris Cornell again not classically trained but naturally gifted - what the hell? OMG! Phrasing, breathing, rhythm and all the other stuff you’ve talked about. Even his voice changed as he got older. Besides being an avid listener of rock and roll music what I like very much is a great voice/vocalist. So I’m also a huge fan of both Kate Bush and PJ Harvey. They too both blow me away. 🤘
His voice is unique not that many singers can say that. And rock is in their blood. I have loved rock since i was a teenager and i am now 57 i will always love it . Rock on 🤘
What's great as well is his voice is completely unique and iconic. You know that voice when you hear it. And the music they play is perfect for this voice. These vocals would not work on a different style of music
I absolutely love Brian’s technique, if you actually look at his voice across the years even up to their most present day, Brian always seems to tone down the strain on his grittiness and rasp of his voice during live performances a tad, but like you said he doesn’t care and you can see it’s pure passion and enjoyment for his job. And even through doing this his voice on studio albums seems almost completely the identical in Power up as he did in back in black. Brian’s been doing this for over 40 years, so the fact he can maintain his voice that well even at 70 and still get to perform live is just pure awesomeness
The only way to listen to ROCK AND ROLL IS AS LOUD AS IT WILL GO...ALWAYS...I Still do in my car....Once a rocker always a rocker..I seen these guys in 79 for the first time.. WHAT A FRIGGIN BLAST WE HAD. I loved our music...I miss it so much.
I love all ways Watch your vídeos and the way you speak about techno al ways to song but also The pasión, that s something important... There are a band from SPAIN and Mexico... Icon latin bands of rock... CAIFANES, SONG: "LA CÉLULA QUE EXPLOTA" and HÉROES DEL. SILENCIO, song: " ENTRE DOS TIERRAS".please vibes from central america
Brian Johnson has sounded the same from every concert I've seen with him for 1986 to 2008. Im pretty sure he is not "being unhealthy with his voice". It may not be "clean" or "classic" but it IS AUTHENTIC! JUST AS AC/DC IS! Also, AC / DC sounds the closest to album in concert than any other band I've heard. This "unhealthy " , "destroyed" voice B.S. ...is.... B.S.
I was there , but that's normal at River Plate stadium 🏟️. Although it's like that for any band that plays there. Also " The Police " played there for their come back show. But if you want to see a bigger & crazier crowd , watch when ⚽ is played there. It's 10 times bigger. One album of ACDC that doesn't get it's due credit is " Flick Of The Switch " ⚡. That's a great album !!!
as MUCH as i loved Scott, i have to appreciate Johnson's tenacity, for, in this band, over40+ years he's sounded as if the next phrase will kill his voice...ROCK-ON!!
It's hilarious that early fans of "Acca Dacca" still consider Johnson as the substitute for Scott who died after only six years with the band.

Brian Johnson is the absolute definition of a "leather-lunged" vocalist. One of a kind.
Try comparing Brian Johnson's vocals in AC/DC to when he was in the band Geordie now that's really mind blowing.

I feel like Beth should watch Hells Bells from Back in Black in 1980
He doesn’t always sound like that. He can sing differently. Look at him in the band “Geordie”.
You should do the original studio version. You will be surprised by the vocals.
As a kid I was (and still am) a prog rock lover. So I didn't consider hard rock as real music. But now, I reckon that any kind of music of this era is so much better than 99% of the music produced nowadays.

Beth, I watch a few vocal coaches on TH-cam and one thing is certain. Many of you have or are developing an appreciation for metal/hard rock, especially the classic bands. It's nice that you can appreciate and give kudos to singers that as you say aren't technically masterful but still deliver something that's true to them or the genre. AC/DC and Brian Johnson clearly didn't do it wrong, neither did Bon Scott.
Actually there's a thing, I don't recall (I may be wrong) seeing you reviewing a Bon Scott track, that would be interesting.
Hell. Yeah.
The best album to listen to in a car ever.
If it hasn't been said yet, check out the band Geordie to hear Brian's regular voice. He started singing like this to mesh better with AC/DC's style and to do the songs Bon sang.
I've seen AC/DC live 3 times, it's just Epic every single time!
Such a show!
And everyone always sing along 😊
Cheers from Northern Sweden!
I recently noticed that Chris Cornell has this same sound of voice in Cochise. I caught myself saying "Man, his voice is so amazing", then making the connection that he sounds just like Brian Johnson in parts of that song. What do you think Beth?
Chris's sound on "Cochise" was insane. Sounded like he was shredding his vocal cords.
Great video Beth. I love how you acknowledge and appreciate both Brian Johnson and AC/DC for what and who they are - a Rock and Roll band. Not a technical singer, and compare that to the original recording quite a difference. Each to their own and what suits them. How do you maintain your vocal health when you might be both a smoker and a drinker and on the road for 18 months plus the natural decline due to the ageing process? Thinking Lemmy here too. Then there is Chris Cornell again not classically trained but naturally gifted - what the hell? OMG! Phrasing, breathing, rhythm and all the other stuff you’ve talked about. Even his voice changed as he got older. Besides being an avid listener of rock and roll music what I like very much is a great voice/vocalist. So I’m also a huge fan of both Kate Bush and PJ Harvey. They too both blow me away. 🤘
If AC/DC live with Brian, it HAS TO BE Donnington 1991. Everything else is meh compared to it.
His voice is unique not that many singers can say that. And rock is in their blood. I have loved rock since i was a teenager and i am now 57 i will always love it . Rock on 🤘
Fun fact: When Brian was asked how he prepares for a show (warm up etc) his response was “I usually scream a bit and I’m ready to go!”🤣
What's great as well is his voice is completely unique and iconic. You know that voice when you hear it. And the music they play is perfect for this voice. These vocals would not work on a different style of music
My famous quote! You want real technical singing. Then listen too the great Opera and Jazz singers. Anything else is can be a free for all!
BRIAN HAS THE GREATEST VOICE EVER!!
Hi Beth, I think you’d really enjoy reacting to Alex Harvey - Next is an amazing track
I absolutely love Brian’s technique, if you actually look at his voice across the years even up to their most present day, Brian always seems to tone down the strain on his grittiness and rasp of his voice during live performances a tad, but like you said he doesn’t care and you can see it’s pure passion and enjoyment for his job. And even through doing this his voice on studio albums seems almost completely the identical in Power up as he did in back in black. Brian’s been doing this for over 40 years, so the fact he can maintain his voice that well even at 70 and still get to perform live is just pure awesomeness
I'd love you to react to brothers of metal - yggdrasil if possible ♡

AC/DC will be done when Angus is. That old fuck can still wail baby. I hope they tour till they're 80, lol love these lads!
Actually Angus is not that old as he is 67 years old so he still haves a long time ahead of him.
@@Moonwalker1075 hate to break it to you my man, but 67 is old lol it's old as shit. Like 99% of the world is retired by that age.
Brian Johnson has sounded the same from every concert I've seen with him for 1986 to 2008. Im pretty sure he is not "being unhealthy with his voice".
It may not be "clean" or "classic" but it IS AUTHENTIC!
JUST AS AC/DC IS!
Also, AC / DC sounds the closest to album in concert than any other band I've heard.
This "unhealthy " , "destroyed" voice B.S. ...is.... B.S.
please, react to "2021 EM UMA MÚSICA" from inutilismo, is great song and really tecnicall
hello!! could you please react to Critical Acclaim by Avenged sevenfold live at LBC???
Thank youuu
I was there , but that's normal at River Plate stadium 🏟️. Although it's like that for any band that plays there. Also " The Police " played there for their come back show. But if you want to see a bigger & crazier crowd , watch when ⚽ is played there. It's 10 times bigger. One album of ACDC that doesn't get it's due credit is " Flick Of The Switch " ⚡. That's a great album !!!
The most important is now his voice ... but the CROWD VOICE ... that was a concert of lifetime
And i know it´s your job to react ... but ... It´s AC/DC at hist best form ... you"re doing great ... but ... it´s AC`DC ............
