    13:43 It was actually a thing called dissonance notes, the opposite of consonant notes that people usually called as “harmony”. A few song had this kind of notes and my choir did this, my choral coach say that there are some notes that would sound unpleasing combined (dissonance intervals) to creates the intensity in the song.

I have a recent one about Demi Lovato and a recent one about Childish Gambino, I’m dropping another Ariana video in the same format tomorrow since it was such a smash for the channel! I’m sure I’ll see you there, much love!
