- I hope this observation on how he sings helps you figure out how the voice works better, so you can learn how to make smart choices in your own voice.

Teddy is one of my friends and was my roommate! He’s amazing. So glad he’s getting the recognition he deserves.
Aww lucky getting to hear him sing often!
That's cool. I really enjoy his stuff! Just found him. Tell him good job!
Sure.
He is absolutely amazing
So jealous! I’ve been looking to teddy for a while now he’s one of my favorite artists ever
i like that it's a statement now, "i'm a voice teacher." authority
But he's always said that lol
@@pt9373 yeah, but now it's in the title.
@@rtw8609 I'm with ya now
Same
@@pt9373 lmao for me it was funny cause you always see "voice teacher reacts to xx" as a title, the standalone sentence was a power play
The way Teddy sings almost makes me want to forgive everyone who ever hurt me. Totally worth a listen if you haven't heard him before.
I felt that too. I love this soulful version
What a beautiful thought. Me, too. Almost. 😏
I have never heard of him... off to research now cos I'm also sweating in my eyes 👀 😭
OMG he's done a cover of Rivers by my favourite Kiwi band Six60!! That's so cool, not enough people know about New Zealand music
Most underrated statement...
Thank you for being one of the handful of voice teachers that actually teaches and gives examples. Some of these other "voice teachers" on YT just sit there and say "oh so good!" while contributing nothing, or giving zero insight as a "professonal".
Project23TV - Yes! So many of those out there, and they add zero value. Sam kicks butt!
Lol
This is exactly why I opt to watching Sam instead of many others, because I want to learn. I know it's "oh so good" but what I want to know is WHY, and how I can maybe do that myself.
I love actually hearing you sing and showing examples!!! So nice to see an expert show how he’s an expert
yes i want to hear more sam singing sam please upload more covers im not asking you im telling you
Sam's titles digressing feels like a representation of our mental stability slowly descending during quarantine.
"I'm a voice teacher." dear Sam, has anyone dared to say the opposite cause I'm ready to kick some butts...
I've never heard of this guy before now but his voice is beyond soulful. Just wow!
Thank you for demonstrating with your own voice. It makes it easier for me to understand what you’re saying and I appreciate the effort even when it’s still a technique you’re working on. You are the #1 BEST voice teacher on YT. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I love this low-key passive aggressive title.
You are the only voice teacher I watch religiously on TH-cam. I really enjoy your content!
Two of my favorite things in one vid! Teddy, Bearded Diva and Sam, Voice Teach Extraordinaire. My day has officially been made 😍
you have exquisite taste
HARD SAAAAME.
Smart and thorough reaction. I certainly am not an expert, but what I do know is that my ears love hearing Teddy Swim’s version of this classic.
Awesome reaction Sam! Teddy is amazingly gifted and you really explained what’s going on with his voice and performance so exceptional well 😎🙌🏻
You absolute beauty. One of the best reviewers out there. 🙌🏽
Wow, thank you!
that beautiful vibrato. It just opens up and invites you in. I am so thankful for the day I discovered Teddy. Many blessings Teddy 🙏
I really need to put a playlist together with all the artists I discovered through your videos. So many awesome voices. Thank you, Sam. ✌🙃
Please do! share it
If you do, please share it because I need it!
yes I'd never heard of Teddy Swims til now , his voice is so lovely
Man! The depth and detail of your insights always leave me in awe. You are so skilful!
You're a king. Thank you for being so real and imformative.
I just found out about this guy today. Completely blown away. 🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
Oh wow, I really like his style and the vibes. I'm going to check him out
OH I'M SO GLAD YOU'RE DOING THIS ONE - also Adele's cover of this is a standard in itself.
I really like the way you’re analysing every musician. I’ve been watching your videos a lot and I feel you are really educating me as I’m a musician myself. Keep up the good work Sam!
"I Will Always Love You" is definitely a standard by this point.
great one!
Hey, Sam?
Have you heard George Michael's cover of this song?
The cd version has these lyrical/song changes that just break my heatt. I had heard this song many times but i hadn't truly understood it, until he sang it.
th-cam.com/video/87uGcp9V_IY/w-d-xo.html
Especially that very last line of hope.
Christina V I miss George Michael so much.
Christina V thanks for linking that exquisite cover by George Michael.
@@christinav3964 whoa I am a george and whitney and dolly fan and I had no idea he covered this. thanks for the heads up!
Commenting to feed the algorithm. Enjoyable as always :)
You're the best!
I am now going to listen to everything I can get my hands on from Teddy Swims. What an absolutely beautiful voice. Thank you, Sam, for the review. I love finding new artists to listen to from your reviews!
Love Teddy's version and was psyched to see you we analysing it. Great stuff, Sam!
I am actually listening to music very differently now that I have found you. Thanks
Date I realized how Bon Iver was actually pronounced: Today
One of my fave songs, every time it makes me have goose pimples. Really like it with a male voice. Like the exercise with adding in more breath. Best put this one in my melancholy play list, it's a keeper!
You are hands down the BEST voice teacher on youtube. Extremely technical and entertaining. Your videos distract me from my work, so thank you very much.
“We’re like just observing him in the studio.”
Like a fly on the wall. 😁
Learned about him about a year ago when I saw him in Minneapolis and he has so much soul. He definitely gives me chills.
Teddy's voice is so damn smooth and relaxing I have to listen to him when I go sleep because its so relaxing, great analysis on this Sam 👌
I have no clue about singing or music in general, but I like watching people that really know what they are talking about. Maybe I'll learn a thing or two while doing so.
Wow, he's fantastic! I'm definitely going to be taking a trip down the rabbit hole. Thanks for introducing me to him. I love voices like his.
Glad you got to discover Teddy. He has become one of my favorite still little known artists. He is a joy to watch and hear perform. So soulful and genuine. I highly recommend listening to some of his other work.
You're such a top notch vocal educator for all of us youtubers, but seldom mentioned for your unforced and subtly effective humor. Genuinely enjoying the bits of comedy you slide in. Thank you Sam!
It’s been a bit since i’ve been able to watch one of your videos and, i have to say, wow, i’ve really missed them. You really are a joy to watch.
Love teddy’s voice. Amazing
I love teddy! Excited to hear what you think
Teddy is a sweet Georgia boy who can connect & rock the room live. 😘 love him thanks Sam!
I just enjoy listening to Sam's talking, he's so observant and his speech is so on point and clean 🤤
Awe Teddy!!!! He’s one of my friends and incredibly talented. Check out his originals and his music with his band! Yay Jaten is killing it, I’m so proud!
this is also my first time learning about teddy swims and this was such a beautiful performance! his voice is so warm, like a fuzzy blanket! also he's got a great beard lol.
and i always love watching Sam mimic the different mouth shapes as he watches a performance! it's really cool seeing what things he focuses on. before, i didn't realize how big of a role mouth shape could play in terms of the kind of sound you want, and this channel really helped me learn that! i also used to think that being breathy or gravelly with your voice was bad in any circumstance (which i now realize might be due to choir being my only experience in vocal training lol) so it's always really cool seeing that analyzed in a non-exclusionary way! the open-mindedness to all the sorts of voices and techniques that can be possible is something i've always really loved about Sam's analyses.
i'm also loving the direction the editing and thumbnails have been going lmao
One day I will be comfortable enough in my life financially to get vocal lessons from you Sam. But just by watching your videos and listening to what you’ve had to say, I’ve grown as a musician and vocalist. Thank you so much. I love you Sam!
I've fallen in love with your channel so hard! I don't sing, I don't even intent to and I have to Google Translate lots of this technical vocabulary since I'm very very french.
But yet your kindness and professionalism and wit drew me right in.
Also if one day you could react to Benjamin Clementine "Nemesis" live on C à vous, that'd be the coolest thing!
I am so happy you are doing Teddy!!!! I love his voice !!!! Can’t wait for his CDs to come out!!!!
1st. You're funny. Good luck with everything, keep doing what you're doing, and have a great day!
Thanks! You too!
@@SamJohnsonVoice your welcome, thank you, and thanks for hearting and responding!
Swear Sam has the best audio out there out of all my TH-cam subscribers. Gahhh its so clean, clear and refreshing
Have not watched you in a while, I come here to LEARN. When i want an emotional reaction i watch others. they kind of react to more 'fun' things but you are a VOICE TEACHER.
I feel you talking about reactions and actions really improved me in my mental health, not just relating to music.
This was one of the very first songs that I really connected with emotionally while singing. I can technique stuff to death but this song just pulled me in so I performed it rather than sang it. Love it! Thank you Sam. Your analysis of the nuances in his voice was so insightful.
You're such a great teacher! Love your videos Sam!
Thanks so much!
I love teddy his voice fills me with so much emotion and feels
Love this song ❤️ and Teddy Swim’s cover. Thank you! Would love to hear you sing this or anything❤️❤️❤️
I'm soo glad about the new camera angle!! Thank you, it's so much better now🤗🤗 (I'm a little late for saying this but I really really appreciate it)
I have been waiting for this video for a very long time...THANK YOU! 🙌🏽💕
Really enjoy your videos. Always learn something new and find awesome singers to check out!
Always get so much great insight from your videos - I love how you describe such concrete tips to improve.
He is awesome love his songs god bless him and hope he continues singing and giving us beautiful songs we love you teddy
Dang. He looks like my husband. Lol.
He does I assume he's the one in your profile pic. I like his beard
Haha
Same. It's a lot closer to Teddy's now, plus he wear headphones and hoodies all the time. He just needs some khaki cargo shorts to complete the look. 😂 I'm into it. 😘
Make him sing to you before you go to bed. 😋😋😋😋😋😋
This is one of my favorite teddy songs.
Bon Iver’s versión is absolutely beautiful i couldn’t agree more, really gets to the soul
I have a bunch of things to say. I don't understand singing at all, I have never sung, and I watch your videos religiously. I love music and understanding it a little better makes me really happy.
You explain very well and compared most on the net, you are extremely knowledgeable.
Teddy's voice to me, is like smooth honey, slowly trickling down the rough edges of a beautiful Maple Tree 💗💗💗 I think the majority of us have felt this, at sometime in our lives, which Teddy, just opens the memory, like it was yesterday 😥
Here comes sammy boy once again with the good ass content! Really enjoyed this one ❤
I could tell by Sam’s face it was gonna be fire.
Hey Sam, please react to Bastille. He has one of the more interesting voices in pop music due to his accent. He has some nice live medleys on youtube showing some range. Would be great!
Your channel is so nice and calming compared to all the hype, explosive channels that are so pervasive on this site. Thanks, Sam!
The Bon Iver cover of this song gets me every time, so much raw emotion and I feel like the piano background versus having more instruments makes that version the best in my opinion.
He kind of sounds like Joe Cocker- that gravel and soul in his voice.
I agree about keeping eyes open and connecting with audience.
I get where he’s coming from, but I love the feeling of watching a singer who seems so beside themselves in the emotion of a song to the point where it’s so intimate for them that it almost feels weird that you’re there. That’s really special when an artist sings like they’re not even worried that you’re there or like they don’t even know.
I came here to feed the algorithm and for my daily dose of Voice Learning :)
Thanks Sam for an enjoyable video!!
I love that the thumbnails increasingly make Sam look like a friendly neighborhood Dr. Seuss character
teddy can make any man with a heart of stone shed a tear
I’ve just heard Teddy sing Teddy sing for the first time today and this song. Wow! Wow, wow I don’t understand the technicalities of how he sings and appreciate your breakdown of the technique Sam, but the emotion in his voice is phenomenal. I feel it’s almost impossible not to feel any emotion hearing him sing this song. Couldn’t agree with more Teddy, I also got sweat in my eyes. The more I played it the more the worse it got and I realised it was actually hay fever.
Well that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it!
I’d love him to sing the great James Morrison song.
“I won’t let you go.”
I like watching all kinds of reaction videos but its very cool to hear an expert breaking things down i must say
I really appreciate the teaching. It's so much more valuable to me than watching someone ooh and aah over someone I already like. Breaking it down and showing examples also helps me appreciate the original singer's skill and the work that goes into making it seem so effortless. Hopefully it will help my own singing.
Hi Sam can you please do an analysis video of Sam Smith's technique next? Thank you
I need that patronizing laugh at 7:25 as a animated gif. Mostly to use on Reddit when I thank people for correcting me.
You’re extra freckle-y in this video and it’s cute!
This dude’s voice in so pretty and I’m happy to have found him through your video.
Teddy Swims is is an amazing singer. His voice is like velvet for my ears. Love love love his voice.
Teddy Swims deserves a much larger following and audience. He is so talented and have so much heart and soul in everything he performs.
Wicked Games is one that I remember but don't hear that often. Diana Ankudinova does a version of it from a year or so ago when she was 15. I haven't seen anyone on your channel that sings like her so it would be interesting to hear what you have to say.
please react to anything Haley Reinhart creep and lay it down are my personal favorites 🥰🥰 you always have such quality videos!!
I'm one of your new subscribers! I would like to let you know that I enjoy your vocal analysis and breakdowns of these two special artists, Halle & Chloe. BTW, Halle is the one that landed "The Little Mermaid" role.
You are so good at what you do. I'm so glad you finally had a chance to listen to him sing. I love him. You need to listen to him sing Tennesse Whiskey and when you compared his growl to Chris Stapleton, I just said YES!!! He appeared on America's Got Talent on 8/24 with a former winner & Neal Schon playing guitar to Journey's Don't Stop Believing. I think you will be impressed.
Love that you use food inserts when you're talking about singing with emotion. 😂 Still love Bonnie Rait's version best, but Teddy Swims is definitely my 2nd favorite. His voice is ridiculously good. You should hear his covers of MJ and Billy Eilish.
Loving the chaotic energy of these new thumbnails and titles !!
Also, if you wanna talk about EYES and singing some more, please do 'AURORA - MURDER SONG (5,4,3,2,1) - The 2015 Nobel Peace Prize Concert'. (Also the singing is just REALLY good.) thankyou
Wow he sounds amazing, liked the honest "he did it better than I could" Awesome work again, love to hear something that I think is amazing and glance at my screen and see Sam nodding in validation.
You are my favorite thing on TH-cam. So sad I miss some words cause english not my native language. But your content is pure gold for me. ❤
Those emotions for that burrito are a big mood, and i can only hope I react half as strongly when singing my heart out! Lovely and informative content as always =)
I love your videos and your pronunciation. I'm learning english with your videos, jaja. I love you! I send my warmest regards from Mexico.
Been waiting for this one. So excited!
Teddy is an amazing singer!
I know, I know ....but I'll have to listen to it without you stopping it so often
I love George Michael's cover of this song, so effortless and emotive. RIP George.
Love your videos so much! It's helped me learn a ton about the voice and how to make it work for me!
I would love to see you analyze St. James and the broken bones! The lead vocalist has such soul and passion in his performances it would be great to see your take on it!
First time hearing Sam J. Wow. I sing to myself and I just learned a lot listening to his analysis. Sam, I like what I heard of your voice.
Plz analyse tyler joseph from twenty one pilots best live vocals
