he is singing. its a voicelive touch. he is inputing its just a doubler effect. makes it sound chorusy and like theres two of him singing the same thing. creating extra textures and harmony.
In songs like this and Lisztomania, he is singing along with himself, to create that doubling effect that other guy mentioned. It's to keep him in key, and to thicken the sound. You'll hear times hes off pitch, or will cut out and let the track play more. It's a very smart and useful tool!

Check out the performance of this song from Studio Q. The vocals are clear and unfiltered, the guitar is acoustic and there are no drums. You can here what a beautiful song it is. I like it both ways.
+Maxton Barber yeah max, ive got a ve-20 bossvoice pedal, it simulates doubler, sounds fine when i cover phoenix in my band. but thommas sounds like awesomeness alive, this is curious.
I don't think that's a tc helicon that he's messing with...I believe that's just the mix in his head phones. He does have some pedals at his feet though. Could it be chorus or phaser? (His voice sounds slightly layered, which you could achieve with one of those helicon voice effects... i just don't see one sitting out, they're pretty distinct looking blue or white pedals, wider than a normal pedal.) I'd like to know what effects this guy uses because he always sounds flawless live.
What are those mounted effects boxes they are all using? I've been seeing a lot of people using it. I tried searching everywhere but i don't know what they're called?? Please, I'm going nuts over here. T_T
David B J Old comment, but just wanted to clear up that they are not playback. He’s using an effect pedal on his voice that mimics the sound of a double track. The effect processor is called the tc-helicon VoiceLive Touch 2

0:40 the look the guitarist gives to the guy on the right makes me want to play music
+Brian DelGiudice Never too old to start! :-)

Thanks to this song, I saw 3 girls go topless at Corona Capital. Thanks Phoenix!

I like how he sing, like he's going to cry
They sound great live!
Fn amazing
You can’t elevate a pop track higher than this sheeeiit
Those French boyz do something to me
Thanks Phoenix for being there!
so unreal. all in phoenix is unreal. i'm so in love with this band. ♡
J'ai entendu cette chanson au moins 2 fois par jour!!! Y este sesión para KCRW es de una calidad insuperable. Bien por Phoenix
lovely!
Is that Kev Parker on keyboards
why does this song make me cry x_x
+Ashley Rowe maybe its just that time of the month, eat some chocolate baby
because the guy is the fucking greatest songwriter in the world
Their act is so fucking tight.
solid performance.
what's that slight effect he uses on his voice? cool how he's able to use it in real time with no delay. anyone know what it is?
The all black keys on this guys key board looks sweet
Man he is picky with his headphone mix

Those are mixers for their respective headphone mixes. They can adjust how much they're hearing themselves & each other.
Cool video. Good job
This song was insane in Tdot last night!
voicelive touch 2 i think. u can get the same by double tracking your vocal and adding some distortion, eq, and compression in any modern daw.
I wanted to know what is the voice gear Thomas uses to sound like this!
+Luis Henrique Gomes me too. some sort of doubler for sure. sounds like it has distortion on it too. or bitcrushing
+Maxton Barber yeah max, ive got a ve-20 bossvoice pedal, it simulates doubler, sounds fine when i cover phoenix in my band. but thommas sounds like awesomeness alive, this is curious.
a falsetto sure helps
there's a keyboard with all keys black, now that's cool!
The funny thing is that the singer is a drummer too
❤❤
i think its a voicelive touch 2. they just came out and have all those distorted double vocal effects
what did Mars sang in the end after, "I'd rather be alone"?
"Steal this download".
Yes, it makes no sense. But that's what he says.
Cheers!
Apple Music lyrics says: Until there is some hope
I heard "turn the lights down to low" but idk
What is the music at the end?
Surfer Blood - Say Yes To Me
Adson Augusto Thanks!

cool black keys!!
What does he say @3:28 i have been wondering since this song came out!
sorry it took 7 years. you likely found out long ago, and have stopped caring, but it's "steal this download". you stay golden, JPCrimson720.
Andy Trullinger the fact that you replied 7 years later is actually incredible! Thanks
@@JPCrimson720 oh right on! Glad that's your response! I almost didn't even send it. Take care JPCrimson720.
@@JPCrimson720 this is so wholesome
Intro sounds like Hand Covers Bruise from the Social Network soundtrack

Who sings the second voice?
The drummer is always bad a**. He always plays with so much enthusiasm. Check their Letterman performance of 1901.
steal this, download?????? :P
Or does of montreal sound like phoenix?
But yeah some of the stuff off this album sounds like of montreal.
@paoao i think they're just for monitoring. Like aviom
Say yes to me by Surfer Blood, see the links at the end of this vid ;)
I love Thomas but he looks like a little boy being forced to sing ?????? !!
im pretty sure its a voicelive touch 2.
doesnt push the parameters with his voice much does he, this doesnt sound too bad compared to Amadeus Phoenix..and I thought this was brand new
He is weirdly cute.
live or memorex?
the lead singer looks nothing like I imagined him, I imagined him to look like the lead singer of relient k or something
I wish he really sang live.
They should call themselves 5 meek geeks and a sweet drummer.
sounds like "of montreal"
He says "Steal this download" Which is kinda a music industry joke
02:44 WTF.. I really tought he was singing for real...
JJ Abrams on rhythm guitar ..
steal this, tell them no

tc helicon i think
I guess the vocals are playback.
David B J Old comment, but just wanted to clear up that they are not playback. He’s using an effect pedal on his voice that mimics the sound of a double track. The effect processor is called the tc-helicon VoiceLive Touch 2
I think Thomas failed at the chanting part.

Playback! Like all their lives..
