heartlessoni13 It was a very impressive performance, It's one of the best covers of the song I've seen in a while. it's authentic but still incorporates the artist's style. And the change in technique throughout the song is a stylistic choice which can be seen in most of panic's music.
"You can do whatever you like with my image, my music, remix it, re-release it, whatever... just never make me boring." -Freddie Mercury He would definitely be proud of Brendon's cover of this song. I think he did a great job.
Diary of me I don’t like Tristan that much thoughh :3 but yeah he’s great but some of what he teaches he can’t do exactly and some are not quite correct
An interesting point is that Queen/Freddie Mercury never performed that "Poor Boy/Galileo" section live. Ever. The lights always went dark and the studio track was played. So there is no audio/video of Freddie doing it live, so we have no idea how it would actually sound. Just something to think about.
Freddie didn't sang the Galileo E5 it was Roger, lol.Roger and Brian still leave the Arena dark and go behind the stage during that part, they never did it a life because queen was edgy when it wasn't cringe.
I think anyone who genuinely loves music can see this as the loving homage it was. Urie knows he's not Freddie, just like Lambert (who tours with and was chosen by Queen) knows and constantly acknowledges he's not Freddie. Freddie was just one of those magical vocalists. But Urie does an admirable job and still puts a bit of his own flavour on his choices. Great insights as always, Sam. Man, this is fast becoming one of my fave channels
4:58 if the E-5 you’re talking about is the “Galileo” part, then no Freddie didn’t sing that part, Rodger Taylor the drummer did. He tends to go un noticed, but he provided Queen with not only excellent drumming, but also excellent high notes and falsettos
"That's a lie, that was perfect.." I had to pause the video because I couldn't stop laughing. So relatable! I love the channel, never hit subscribe so hard.
I think his dropped vowel shape in the begining is an artistic choice, he's heavily influenced by Frank Sinatra, so it's that crooner type pulled vowel sound. That's my opinion, of course I could be wrong. Also, that e5 Galileo was sang by Roger Taylor, not Freddie.
I saw him and I had no idea how lucky I was... He took his shirt off and with the sweat and the light dude literally turned into twilight.. I didnt know that was a real thing and I kind of just fixated on that 😂😂😂
I saw Panic! in concert a couple years ago and it was absolutely amazing. Brendon is such a great performer live, I truly think he's one of the best male singers of this generation.
Your videos are great! Not only are they educational and interesting without being overly technical, but you can truly see your overall love for music, it's fantastic!
Seeing Panic live was the best experience I have ever had, especially in terms of hearing live vocals. Brendon is definitely such an underrated artist, not even just for the music itself but the skill he has in singing. I'd say him and Ariana Grande are the best vocalists of the century.
Dude sang one of the hardest Freddie Mercury songs there is and people on here are being vicious. If he had 20 bad notes, he's still doing better than most of us. Not a fan of Disco, but jesus, it's just a show-cover done in their style. It's not that bad. It will never be Freddie and everyone knew that going in.
Rory Stevens Bohemian Rapsody is something you just don’t cover.. never, ever. All karaoke bars should ban it. It just becomes rape on the song every time. The only good version I heard was Adam Lambert with his huge voice and still, it was not Freddie.
To those saying "why cover it when it was already mastered" I will answer that it's because it's music. It's meant to be reperformed for new generations. Otherwise it dies away. I'm sure Beethoven's ninth was once performed perfectly, and even recorded, yet still it is justified to be performed.
I love how people are saying Bohemian Rhapsody should be left alone or Brendon is being compared. Then im just sitting here like, “The members of Queen liked his cover, that means it was impressive as hell.” :3

Wow, didn't know this version. I tend to react very conservative towards Queen's songs and their covers, but they did a great job with that 'trembling' style the Panic!'s singer has.
I think my favorite part of this cover is that this could be Brendon in his bedroom. He's just having a good time rocking out to one of his favorite artist. He kept the integrity of the piece and his personality is very apparent. There's a lot of talk how no one can live up to Freddie but I feel like the misunderstanding here would be thinking that Brendon is trying too. There was so much care and respect put into every piece of this cover that it doesn't sound like someone trying to upstage the original, this is someone having a good time spreading the gospel.
I feel bad for those who compare him to Freddie. The point of a cover is to put a personal twist on the song. Also, I'm 99% sure Brendon was drunk during the performance. He is usually drunk. lol
It takes an incredible performance to get me emotional through music.... goddamn this cover hit me hard. And it 'always' does. Shame I can't witness it live everyday.
I think my favorite part of your videos is that we can see how much you enjoy the different ways people sing and achieve notes and you like piecing together what they’re doing and explaining it in layman’s terms to those of us that don’t have the same amount of knowledge and education about music/voice as you do.
i really don’t know how or why you popped up on my recommended but boy oh boy i am not mad about it. i found ur channel two hours ago and i’ve been watching ever since 😂 i’m obsessed.
Brendon just smashed a song that 99.9% of people are too scared to even attempt with only 20 mistakes, theres theories of him being ill during this but I don think it matters he still smashed it, he even nailed the super high part that queen didnt actually perform in there live performances, including the super high note that was originally sung by the drummer not Freddie, but people still manage to slate this performance saying it was a mockery to Freddie. (Brendon has a wider vocal range than Freddie did, ha get triggered)
You do realize that Freddy sang and loved Opera..... pretty sure Vocally Freddy was far more capable. Hence why his music is a classic and Panic is sellout music😉😘
@@sillysiji5257 queen never did the operatic part live, live. it was always mixed into their set from the studio recording. all fully admitted as fact and can easily see for yourself in any vid avail. I do think they could have easily pulled it off, especially with today's technology... or have just done a stripped down version live for the time, but queen was well, queen.
I love how all these vocal coaches react to live vocals of him and when he reacts to the vocal coaches reacting to him, he's like learning new stuff that he's been doing for a while, but just learning that he does that then
I hope you realize that the last portion of your commentary was more than a vocal lesson, it was a life lesson. When you're doing something "off" and you never resolve it, it's just "dissonance." We all have many ups and downs on our Journey. The "key" is getting back on "track" and to "carry on." This video is FANTASTIC on so so many levels. As always, your advice is spot on, but this one runs deep. #gratitude
Brendon knows how to control his voice very very well, he would've done things differently to how it should be performed because he knows what would sound best for him at that moment, like j watch beebo religiously he knows what he's doing and he uses different techniques in different videos so it sounds the best at that point
To me I don’t really see Brendon struggling to hit high notes.. ik all singers struggle and their voice gets tired but to me he’s one the the top singers in the game and he’s voice and his music he doesn’t get enough credit but his voice is soo unique and amazing but he can hit high notes easy to me somtimes but i do notice when he’s voice is getting tired too.
Z Freddie could hit all of the same notes as Taylor, but Taylor had a different tune or sound when he sang them, to put it very simply. The video I got that from was Marc Ajax’s analysis of Bohemian Rhapsody.
I used to take lessons from the same studio as Brendon, about 12 years ago when I lived in Las Vegas. It was always really fun to show up a few minutes early and hear what they were working on. He is incredibly gifted! Also, I just discovered your channel and I'm obsessively watching all your videos. You're so knowledgeable! Last thing, I love your shirt. Go Jazz!
I just learned tht a few days ago in a doc I watched. Glad to see someone point tht out. It was also good to find out tht even the great Freddy Mercury couldn't hit some notes lol.
I'm an attorney and I've restored cars for 35 years. I love music, but couldn't find a note on a one key keyboard. This vlog is so amazing. Breaking down voice in such understandable ways is fantastic. This is one of my favorite channels. It's interesting to see in other episodes that even professional singers have off days. Sam seems like the kind of coach that after the worst performance of your life would say you'll do better tomorrow. Good on him.
HulaMommy I second that. Beautiful man, not just handsome, but classically beautiful. Pulls off the long hair nicely and him being able to critique people while remaining constructive and KIND makes him all kinds of awesome. I can't sing to save my life and just stumbled onto his videos somehow and i can't stop watching them now
No you aren't the only one! My God he is beautiful! And I do NOT like men with long hair! Sam is the 1st and only guy I don't mind with long hair! I'm a married woman, but I'm not dead! Lol I love when he cocks his head to the side to listen!
Queen overdubbed those vocals a million times or something (okay, maybe dozens of times). That would not be possible to recreate live without a playback.
When and how the hell did you show up in my suggestions??Gotta be the first god damn time TH-cam suggest to me something that i actually loved. Looking forward to follow you the years to come. And looking forward When you react to Good old freddie.
My GOD! Your passion for singing, for TEACHING is so palpable! I absolutely love watching you watch others sing! I can't believe all that I'm learning, and I can only carry a tune in a bucket! Ha ha! This channel is going to explode! Absolutely. Anyone lucky enough to train with you is lucky indeed.
Brendon has reacted to some of these types of vids and I really want him to see this one because Sam has really good analysis that he’d probably find interesting
The high notes are a little nasal because that helps it resonate more and makes it easier for him to hit that note. And I would love to see some MCR on this channel, although I don't think Gerard's voice is anywhere near perfect, but that's what I love about him.
Honestly I was getting sick of these 'Vocal coach reacts to' videos but you really picked up on things and talked more about technique than others I've seen. Great video
Takes balls to cover the greatest rock vocalist of all time. I'm curious what you think of Mike Patton of Faith No More. I put him pretty high on my personal list
Is it as good as Queen of Freddie Mercury? Of course not, no one will be. But Brendon and Panic! At the Disco did an amazing job and I'm sure Freddie would be proud.
Adrian Lopez oh I am. if Freddie is as talented as Brendon, he would be able to hit the notes in his own songs LIVE. But he didn’t, said it himself. It’s my opinion of course, but Brendon’s range is larger and he has more control, imo.
During the call/response it was - otherwise it was usually both. For example, both sang high in harmonies but in the “for meeEEEEE” Roger did it was a stylistic choice for him to do it as both could hit the note but Freddie preferred the way it sounded when Roger did. (I think it was Brian May who said this but i can remember lol).
I love that you show the WHOLE video rather than jump cuts to your reviews. I'm learning lots from these videos. I love singing but I have zero confidence!
So are the people who are saying this isn't as good as queen deaf? Or is it the nostalgia-earmuffs? Because while I may not care too much for his personal style, he fucking nailed this song. If Freddy Mercury were alive today to hear this today, he'd be the first to commend this guy. Then he'd do a line of coke.
it’s not as good as Queen. Freddie is one of the best singers ever. Still, doesn’t mean it was bad...but to say people who don’t think it’s just as good as Queen are deaf ? Come on. Its not nostalgia-earmuffs. Freddie is the better singer.
I disagree. I don't think this guy is BETTER, but I think he's as good, he's just different. Personally I prefer Freddie, but this guy is objectively amazing. Even if he DIDN'T sing this song as well as Freddie did (which is an extremely objective opinion), it's asinine to say just because someone can't sing FREDDIE'S song as well as Freddie sang it, that he's a worse sing. It's his song, man, he made it, it's specifically tailored to his voice, his mannerisms, his limitations, etc. I honestly believe this guy sang this song every bit as well as Freddie, he just did so differently to compensate for his own voice, style and limitations as a singer, which are on par with Freddie's, albeit quite different. You may not like his vocals as much (nor do I, for that matter) but objectively speaking, as I've said, the guy fucking nailed it.
I've watched a handful of your reactions and the part I enjoy the most is reading your facial expressions. The smile on your face matched my smile! Your opinion of the respect panic at the disco paid to queen matched my sentiments exactly. Those 2 things made me smile, like the hard face hurty kind.
I don’t know how I found your channel but I’m glad I did. Such a humble constructive man. You’ve given me an appreciation that singers have to work for it, it’s not all natural ability and luck.
I have no idea why your videos kept popping up in my feed but I'm so glad they did. I have watched a few of them now and greatly admire how you approach everything as a vocal teacher NOT a person that overreacts for more likes. I always thought you were either born with "it" or you weren't. Before listening to you I did not realize there was so much involved that you could correct, maneuver, and practice. Thank you for taking the time to educate us all.
"Brandon" lmao what a moron
Brendon not Brandon
It's "Brendon" not Brandon
you should also react to him singing “saturday night” on the late late show ^^ it’s one of my favorite performances of his!
Why did you call him a moron? Did I miss a new bit on him or is this just your delayed opinion?

This video is FANTASTIC on so so many levels. As always, your advice is spot on, but this one runs deep. #gratitude
Brendon knows how to control his voice very very well, he would've done things differently to how it should be performed because he knows what would sound best for him at that moment, like j watch beebo religiously he knows what he's doing and he uses different techniques in different videos so it sounds the best at that point
Your name is me btw
The high Galileos where originally performed by drummer Roger Taylor, not Freddie
Is no one going to talk about that GoRgEoUs mama mia at 6:09 ??
I KnOw
I BEEN SCREAMING ABOUT IT
SAME!!!!! ONE OF MY FAV PARTS (though the whole video is just my fav lol)
I KNOW! I LOVE IT! I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THAT ONE!
Pyro Girl the raspiness of the “mamma Mia” oh lord amazing!
To me I don’t really see Brendon struggling to hit high notes.. ik all singers struggle and their voice gets tired but to me he’s one the the top singers in the game and he’s voice and his music he doesn’t get enough credit but his voice is soo unique and amazing but he can hit high notes easy to me somtimes but i do notice when he’s voice is getting tired too.
Ikr he doesn't look like he struggles in Saturday night either
I instantly feel like a better singer after hearing you explain the thinning of voice and how just thinking of a certain vowel helps a lot
Freddie didn't do the high notes in the song. It was Roger Taylor.
ThriftstoreFashionista I was going to type this but looked for a comment that said it first lol
@@jalilpierre-louis2098 me too lol😂
Yeah, it was a stylistic choice.
Jamie Van Buren what do u mean?
Z Freddie could hit all of the same notes as Taylor, but Taylor had a different tune or sound when he sang them, to put it very simply. The video I got that from was Marc Ajax’s analysis of Bohemian Rhapsody.
I used to take lessons from the same studio as Brendon, about 12 years ago when I lived in Las Vegas. It was always really fun to show up a few minutes early and hear what they were working on. He is incredibly gifted!
Also, I just discovered your channel and I'm obsessively watching all your videos. You're so knowledgeable!
Last thing, I love your shirt. Go Jazz!
I remember to drink water every time you sip water. Thanks for keeping me hydrated!
By pure curiosity, do singers drink that much and often?
Nadira Nan W yuhp.
Yes all the time
Yes, we have to drink a lot
The Truth of the Matter how would you know if they are or not huh
2:57
Brendon: 🎶 my time has come 🎶
Sam: mY tIMe hAs coME
Freddie never hit the E5 on the recording. The high part on "Galileo" was the drummer. Same with the ending "Me"
I think the ending 'me' is Brian May
I just learned tht a few days ago in a doc I watched. Glad to see someone point tht out. It was also good to find out tht even the great Freddy Mercury couldn't hit some notes lol.
@@nyodeler6647 Freddy was more of a "middle ground" guy, Roger Taylor sang most of the high notes in their songs
You should react to more Panic! (Like maybe Brendon Urie best live vocals)
I'm an attorney and I've restored cars for 35 years. I love music, but couldn't find a note on a one key keyboard. This vlog is so amazing. Breaking down voice in such understandable ways is fantastic. This is one of my favorite channels. It's interesting to see in other episodes that even professional singers have off days. Sam seems like the kind of coach that after the worst performance of your life would say you'll do better tomorrow. Good on him.
First rule of singing. Never sing Queen because you will be compared to Fredie.
Never type his name because you will type it wrong.
@@thorbeorn4295 I missed a D but I am happy to give it to you now ;)
I had no problen because Brendan Urie did not really sound like he was trying to be Freddie Mercury. 'Good cover.
Always sing the songs you love even if compared to Freddie.
Honsetly Brandon did it better than Freddie :P
I know we’re all here for the content but is anyone going to mention how beautiful Sam’s bone structure is? No? Just me? Ok. Back to vocals then.
HulaMommy I second that. Beautiful man, not just handsome, but classically beautiful. Pulls off the long hair nicely and him being able to critique people while remaining constructive and KIND makes him all kinds of awesome. I can't sing to save my life and just stumbled onto his videos somehow and i can't stop watching them now
no worries. I've noticed it too. 😍
Well, since someone else mentioned it...
Sam must be beating off people with a stick. Kind, smart, passionate, beautiful. Rough combo.
No you aren't the only one! My God he is beautiful! And I do NOT like men with long hair! Sam is the 1st and only guy I don't mind with long hair! I'm a married woman, but I'm not dead! Lol I love when he cocks his head to the side to listen!
Do you know that Queen always did the middle part of the song with playback right? Because what this guys did was brilliant.
Queen uses playback for artistic reasons, Roger Taylor who sang the E5 and not Freddie, is a High Tenor and has a better Falsetto then Brandon.
Brendon*** :)
Marti irregardless, they just never sang it. their 4 voices wasn’t enough for that part, plus, they would hype the public for the following part.
Queen overdubbed those vocals a million times or something (okay, maybe dozens of times). That would not be possible to recreate live without a playback.
@@guillemgamell7945 btw irregardless is not a word. Say it with me... Irregardless is NOT a word
React to panic’s cover of dream on, it really shows off his vocal range quite well
When and how the hell did you show up in my suggestions??Gotta be the first god damn time TH-cam suggest to me something that i actually loved. Looking forward to follow you the years to come. And looking forward When you react to Good old freddie.
SAME
SAME SAME!
SAME SAME SAME
Same, and I'm addicted now 😁
Hahahahah true!! Weird but maybe God given ahahhahah
My GOD! Your passion for singing, for TEACHING is so palpable! I absolutely love watching you watch others sing! I can't believe all that I'm learning, and I can only carry a tune in a bucket! Ha ha! This channel is going to explode! Absolutely. Anyone lucky enough to train with you is lucky indeed.
I saw Panic! In concert this year and he’s so good I cry oOF
Courtney Sch. I have to wait until next next March to see him. Hyped.
Kira Orochi me too! I can’t wait!!
@@silentsky6175 me tooo i'll see him in berlin and i can't wait ndjfjfj
Brendon has reacted to some of these types of vids and I really want him to see this one because Sam has really good analysis that he’d probably find interesting
At 2:04 you looked like you were falling in love with Brendon and I don’t blame you
I'd ship it. 😉
Find you someone who looks at you like Sam looks at Brendon.
OMG YOU DID IT
my wonderful emo community here too im happy now
Brendon can for sure be nasally sometimes. I suspect he likes it because of how smug he sounds lol
The high notes are a little nasal because that helps it resonate more and makes it easier for him to hit that note. And I would love to see some MCR on this channel, although I don't think Gerard's voice is anywhere near perfect, but that's what I love about him.
At 7:50 you can hear a fan scream “I love you Brendan!”
Brendon
@@user-rh1qe6gs5jiu8 thank u👏👏👏
Freddy didn't do the E5......................Roger did.
Can you react to Brendon Urie high note montage, I’d like to see if there is any flaws that I can’t hear😂
Honestly I was getting sick of these 'Vocal coach reacts to' videos but you really picked up on things and talked more about technique than others I've seen. Great video
Takes balls to cover the greatest rock vocalist of all time. I'm curious what you think of Mike Patton of Faith No More. I put him pretty high on my personal list
Mike Blanchard Not really fair to put Mike Patton on any list. That guy’s voice is just impossibly versatile.
*THIN* and *SMALL* and *STRETCHY* .
That's NOT what she said...
This is my favorite comment 😂
Oh my god I did the same thing. Followed by: That's our boy beebo. Thin and Small and Stretchy!
Haha
Brendon can really sing. I’m glad that P!ATD is finally getting the recognition that they deserve. I love being apart of their fanbase❤️.
Is it as good as Queen of Freddie Mercury? Of course not, no one will be. But Brendon and Panic! At the Disco did an amazing job and I'm sure Freddie would be proud.
Dude Brendon is Panic! At The Disco, there is no other members to the band.
except freddie murcury didn't do any of those high notes live. they were always recorded. difference in talent is there
RM LaBeau I hope you aren’t insinuating that Brendon is better than Freddie
Adrian Lopez oh I am. if Freddie is as talented as Brendon, he would be able to hit the notes in his own songs LIVE. But he didn’t, said it himself. It’s my opinion of course, but Brendon’s range is larger and he has more control, imo.
We need to hear you sing! Please.....
Agreed. Some thing tells me he can sing a very beautiful classical style that I really want to hear.
He have videos of himself singing.
@@rosegoi360 I just saw that last night while going through this channel. I love his voice!
@@rosegoi360 can you give me the link please??
They are literally in his channel... can't you look by yourself?
“This is a song by one of my favourite gay human beings.”
Sam “same.”
Also Sam. “That’s a lie because it was perfect.”
Such a mood.
5:08
.....
if you're a fan you already know
"Brandon"
Yup
My heart 💔
Rip
Oof..
it's nice to see the diversity. more rock bands and singers all over the world
I think it was Roger Taylor who sang the highest notes, especially in the Call/Response section.
During the call/response it was - otherwise it was usually both. For example, both sang high in harmonies but in the “for meeEEEEE” Roger did it was a stylistic choice for him to do it as both could hit the note but Freddie preferred the way it sounded when Roger did. (I think it was Brian May who said this but i can remember lol).
PLEASE react to AKMU Re-Bye theyre a brother and sister due and their vocals are no joke!
_seungminnie multi trash yess 😫😫
yess please
Hyunjinhaler ᄏᄏ I love them so much. 💕
Can you react to Brendon Urie’s best live vocals?
I think this has to be my favorite cover of Bohemian Rhapsody ever. He nailed it
not a huge panic fan but brendan crushed it! Freddie would be proud
I love how you can see on your face how much you love Queen!! I was REALLY impressed by that performance! You're fun to watch!
I love how much you enjoyed this one!
React to Rebye by Akmu, they are sooooo good
I love that you show the WHOLE video rather than jump cuts to your reviews. I'm learning lots from these videos. I love singing but I have zero confidence!
This guy is really awesome . My favourite vocal teacher until now .👌
Please react to AKMU ‘s songs example re-bye! They’re awesome
Yesss
It’d also be great to see Dinosaur!
YESSSSSSSSS
How people move too please!
or Melted :D
I love how positive you are. I love YOU! How is it possible that I only stumbled across your channel a month ago???!!! Keep on inspiring, hunny 😘😘
God I wish I could sing like Brendon. He’s not perfect on every note, but DAMN can he hit those high notes.
This was also the 18th or 19th song of the night. So that’s ridiculous.
I’m officially obsessed with your videos. I’ve watched probably 10 just today. You’re such a great critic and teacher!
So are the people who are saying this isn't as good as queen deaf? Or is it the nostalgia-earmuffs? Because while I may not care too much for his personal style, he fucking nailed this song. If Freddy Mercury were alive today to hear this today, he'd be the first to commend this guy. Then he'd do a line of coke.
it’s not as good as Queen. Freddie is one of the best singers ever. Still, doesn’t mean it was bad...but to say people who don’t think it’s just as good as Queen are deaf ? Come on. Its not nostalgia-earmuffs. Freddie is the better singer.
I disagree. I don't think this guy is BETTER, but I think he's as good, he's just different. Personally I prefer Freddie, but this guy is objectively amazing. Even if he DIDN'T sing this song as well as Freddie did (which is an extremely objective opinion), it's asinine to say just because someone can't sing FREDDIE'S song as well as Freddie sang it, that he's a worse sing. It's his song, man, he made it, it's specifically tailored to his voice, his mannerisms, his limitations, etc. I honestly believe this guy sang this song every bit as well as Freddie, he just did so differently to compensate for his own voice, style and limitations as a singer, which are on par with Freddie's, albeit quite different. You may not like his vocals as much (nor do I, for that matter) but objectively speaking, as I've said, the guy fucking nailed it.
it will never be as good as freddie... thats just fact
Just no. I love Panic at the Disco, have loved them since I was a kid. But this wasn't good in my opinion.
freddie never hit the high notes live.
How about critiquing Amanda Seyfried’s singing in Les Mis & Mamma Mia?
Yesss!! 😱
@Jennifer Rummler NO, THEY WERE BOTH AMAZING AND EMOTIONAL 😭😭
PLEASE
Chatelaine Lambert omg yesssss pls do this
@Jennifer Rummler amen. I thought I was the only one who felt this 🙌
I've watched a handful of your reactions and the part I enjoy the most is reading your facial expressions. The smile on your face matched my smile! Your opinion of the respect panic at the disco paid to queen matched my sentiments exactly. Those 2 things made me smile, like the hard face hurty kind.
I love this critique. Also, it's now DAY 5 since I saw Sam's videos randomly popped up and I'm BINGE WATCHING LIKE A MOTHER STUFFER! 🤣😃😄
yumr1ce same. Addicted!!!
@@naiwub9831 IKR!
“When Freddie did it” 😂😂 it was actually Roger but it is a common mistake that people make but nearly all falsetto notes in queen were Roger.
I don’t know how I found your channel but I’m glad I did. Such a humble constructive man. You’ve given me an appreciation that singers have to work for it, it’s not all natural ability and luck.
Ya'll need to stop judging and appreciate the fact that Kanye isnt sing the song
Sam please tell me at 6:20 the high note Brendon hit what is that on the scale chart or like what did you say I’m curious because wow
Courtney Argall it’s a bflat5
I have no idea why your videos kept popping up in my feed but I'm so glad they did. I have watched a few of them now and greatly admire how you approach everything as a vocal teacher NOT a person that overreacts for more likes. I always thought you were either born with "it" or you weren't. Before listening to you I did not realize there was so much involved that you could correct, maneuver, and practice. Thank you for taking the time to educate us all.
Ya know what, in all honesty I'm not a fan of Panic! at the disco, but damn this was really good tho, wow
Have you heard their album Death of a Bachelor? It's really fucking good
@@alexhodgkinson6718 No sadly I havent, but I will definitely check it out. Thanks :)
Brandon Armstrong you should get into it!! He’s amazing
@@SkitterZ24 I definitely will check it out thanks
Brendon - the greatest vocalist of our time!
More like the greatest human of forever!!!😂😂
Myah Pettus true...he's so pure
Verona Grant
Nah he isn’t pure he is always horny
We aint sure yet haha we still have years to go haha
Azzam Al-tairi hahaha I meant that he is pure on the inside, that he has a pure soul.
