Wow, I'm so suprised you reacted to Mariza! She's a really famous singer here in Portugal and she's also kinda well known abroad. The style of music she's singing is fado. If I could recomend some other singers I would say Amália Rodrigues. She was the one who gave fado an international status. Another great fado singer is Gisela João. Would really like to see your reaction to these singers!
Beatriz Araújo i like another Song of her is "Melhor de Mim" is really good
I am surprised he did not know the "fado tone" lol
If you dont KNOW fado you can not talk about...
In Fado you dont PUSH the voice, because is Fado. You must know first the culture of this style of this music to after talk about it.
And she is not sick singing with the month close, is like this.
I would like to see he Reacts on Japanese, Egyptian or Russian songs!
Sou brasileiro, mas amo fado. Quando criança, ouvia fado aos domingos de manhã enquanto aguardava pelo almoço
Its Fado (L)
To sing Fado is to "cry a story", usually a sad story made out of hardship, broken heart, loneliness and the feeling of emptiness by missing someone (in portuguese we have a word for it: "Saudade"). That's what she is doing. That harshness in the voice, that strain is what you get when crying.
omg I can't believe it! I've been following your channel recently and I'm Portuguese. I was not expecting this.
Marisa is singing fado. It is a Portuguese style and was considered immaterial heritage of humanity. It's something unique. Fado is very emotional, it aims to convey feelings, usually strong and sad.
The reason she sings with her mouth like that is because of the language, we don't open our mouths that much
Thanks for this reaction. Fado is very beautiful and I'm not saying this because I'm portuguese. Check out more about fado, I know you won't regret it
I just kept thinking how different that would sound with a Brazilian accent. Language definitely shapes how music sounds.
I don't speak Portuguese and am not familiar with this singing style - Some of the sounds I heard seemed to me to be related to the language. (I'm a native English speaker and I have sung Italian, German and French. There are unique vowel sounds in each language.) Very lovely voice and song.
Yes, I just wanted to say the same! Speakers of European Portuguese just seem to never open their mouths, not even when speaking. I've learnt that the hard way while I was studying in Lisbon and failed completely learning to speak this language, though it is very beautiful! I was surprised to see a reaction video to fado music here on this channel!
That is, perhaps, Linda Schmit, because many Portuguese tend to be a bit taciturn when in the presence of strangers, but also tend to warm up after a little while, once they get to know the person a bit better. This is mostly because contrary to what most people seem to believe, we are not a Mediterranean people, (we don' tend to have the exuberance of, say, an Italian, or a Spaniard, or a Greek -- and this just on the European side of the Mediterranean) but rather an Atlantic one, used to feel a bit isolated in Europe, particularly with so many people either badmouthing us, or mistaking us for Spaniards (thinking that we are a province of Spain and that Portuguese is a dialect of "Spanish", etc.) and completely ignoring the facts of our History as the oldest of nations in Western Europe.
PS: I am sorry that you failed to learn the language while you were there studying, but I also know that the Portuguese language can be difficult to get a grasp of, even for many native speakers!
@@lindaschmitt4109 you need to go up north to see portuguese people making use of their vowels 😂 we have more Open sounds in Minho region, Porto, Aveiro, Viseu etc. Actually is kinda different Portugal up here too 😄 totally different scenaries, open sounds, Open talk, instantly open arms and we know how to make serious Open loud parties 😎😂✌️
You should react to her singing "Gente da minha terra"!
Or "Primavera"!
Or Barcos negros :D that's where she reaches a hugeeeeeeeee high note
Reagir é bom para reaccionários...espertalhões da Net !
É DE ONDE LHES CAI O PILIM... COM O TRABALHO DOS OUTROS...@@fernandocosta7784
if u wanna hear her reach higher notes listen to gente da minha terra the live performance it's such a beautiful one
If u want 2 listen 2 high notes listen Teresa Salgueiro.
Yes! React to that song! "Gente da minha terra" mariza live performance, and you will hear her high notes! Thank you!
@@catarinaabrantes4524 Teresa Salgueiro and Dulce Pontes
Definitely.
i have heard that one. omg it's amazing. As a Portuguese it is clear to me that Fado can not just be heard it needs to be felt too. that's why they are eacting in a more technical way. And that is okey. Because the only people who can really feel it is us. Portuguese people. so glad i can feel this too :D
2:16 Omg I thought the same thing about her and Amalia Rodrigues. Stylistic jaw tension might just be a thing in fado. I like the emotional intensity that it sets the mood for.
That's exactly what it is... Fado is loaded with emotion, usually heavy, sad emotions.
As someone already said in the comments, listen to Mariza singing "gente da minha terra"... It's arguably one of the recent great songs in Fado.
@@Ktulu88 Thanks for shedding some more light on this amazing style!
No problem, just noticed a typo in the song title though... Lol... Corrected :-)
Yeah, Fado is like a sung sad crying, which might be helped by having a closed jaw.
Also, I believe there's some element of constraint, she plays a lot with intensity, and when she lets herself free she has a really powerful voice, but then she needs to sing the next phrase in a soft piano, she "closes" her vocal instrument to contain her voice (?)
Thank you so much for reacting to our Marisa! I suggest « Ó Gente Da Minha Terra »: it’s a beautiful song amazingly sung by her! Her live performances of this song are great! She’s even performed it on David Letterman’s show!
The CH sound in Portuguese is exactly the same as the SH sound in English. ;)
Thank you!!
Do you mean like in the word "ship," or "sharp"?
Kadesman As far as I know when talking about the SH sound, both words have the same sound. Check the phonetics alphabet, I believe you’ll be able to understand it better after doing that.
Well, actually the SH sound in both of those words are noticeably different. As someone learning Russian, you could compare the Ш to the sound in "sharp" and Щ to "ship."
Kadesman pronunciationstudio.com/45-sounds/ listen to sound #33 and you’ll understand that they have the same sound.
She is not "singing", she is talking with the audience. It's Fado.
xD
dread true 😂😂😂😂 opah já ganhaste 😂😂
Pimba! já almoçou! ❤️
ahhaahahha
I'm so pleased her way of singing is some how new to you! I grew up in Spain and love this Portuguese music, Fado is very emotional, and Mariza is incredibly gifted.
You reacting to one of the best fadistas in Portugal, I'm soft ;3; and don't worry, you had the pronounciation of "chuva" almost right! ^^
Just for context: Fado is the kind of style she was singing, and Fado is a kind of song that is more expressive of feelings. I suggest you to react to Amália Rodrigues "Lágrima" (since she already passed away a long time, and she's been an artist from old times, you will probabilly have some hard time to find old live performances, can only leave you the link for the studio version, here: ruclips.net/video/-GEaa9QGOd4/видео.html)
Espero que ele veja o teu comentário, estou ansioso para ver como ele vai reagir á maior fadista de Portugal :P
React to Moonspell é que era 🤘😁🤘
@@MrCagarolas1 António Variações
It is funny/"cute" to see you speaking portuguese (that is my first language, but I'm brazillian, not portuguese as she is), you almost got "chuva" right hahahahahaha
True fact! We Portuguese have more closed vowels, and brazillian have them more open. But still, was an excelent attempt _💕
@@dianaramos7727 Another thing I notice just now, is that brazillians, when we talk, our tongue is more relaxed and from portugueses, I think you guys do more movements with your tongues, to have this unique "accent" plus you guys shape your mouths to do the vowels
@@halflingdesaovicente indeed! We have this unique way to do things. It's our way! But both accents and languages are pretty
Cute! Just try pronouncing it as if it were ‘shuva’ and that’s it 😊
@@dianaramos7727 Yeah, exactly!
Also, I don't why we are talking in english if both of us talk portuguese too hshahduahsshshh
I'm so happy you reacted to Mariza *.*
I learn a lot from you and I think you make great content ^^
Hugs from Portugal
You never heard it because it's a traditional Portuguese kind of music called "fado". It was already considered a Portuguese heritage. You may would like to ear other artists that sing this kind of music.
Something good in Portugal...
Wow, wasn't expecting to see a reaction to a Portuguese singer! She hits aaaaall the high notes on 'Gente da minha terra' in case you want to check it out. Love your channel!
I honestly just subscribed yesterday and I feel so so so happy to have found this. I'm portuguese so i feel really glad that you reacted to fado, our country's traditional music. I'm not a music expert, not even close to be one and I honestly have no type of knowledge about music or vocals, but fado is about soul and emotion. There is melancholic fado and happier sounding fado, and Chuva (which means Rain) is about nostalgia and melancholia and the feeling of missing someone after the love is gone.
The portuguese language is (I might be wrong in what I am saying, so please do correct me) the only language that has a specific word for the feeling of longing or missing someone. That word is "saudade" and this song is about that. The way she sings with the shaking of her voice, the high ups and lows and the way like she sometimes seems as if whispering and others like she's screaming is all because she is converting those melancholic and nostalgic emotions into the crowd. It needs to be a raw sound so she uses a huskier voice.
Once again, I have no idea about technique or the way the voice is trained or used while singing but this is just what it feels to me. I believe that usually in sadder fado they tend to use a lot of husky and pulled/strained voices, while in happier fado, its more light sounding and clear.
Anyways, thank you so so so much for listening and reacting to fado! I'm really happy you enjoyed and I hope you can listen to some more!! I would like to recomend the spanish song "Perdóname" by Pablo Alborán and Carminho which is a portuguese fado singer. It's kind of like a mix of fado and spanish music and I absolutely love it!
I'll be waiting for your next react video!!
I love her. I am not Portuguese and I do not know the language, I don’t think you have to know the language to feel this, just beautiful 💖
This its an amazing singer Mariza one of the best singers in Portugal...thanks for this moment
The Portuguese language (from Portugal) is a very hard languag to sing in since almost all the vowels are closed. Portuguese singers usually sing with their mouths very closed so that they can pronounce the words correctly. When you say she opens up its when the word itself has a open vowel. Also the style of music she is singing is linked to sadness and the feeling you get when you miss someone , so people sing it with this very characteristic deep sound you talk about
I'm portuguese and so proud.. Amazing Mariza! Our Fado 🖤🇵🇹
I love the way you explain everything. Thank you, really. Now I can understand more♡
"Never seen someone singing like this/ trying to figure out what she's doing", well, she's doing Fado eheh
🇵🇹🇵🇹☩🇵🇹🇵🇹
React to other Portuguese Divas
Dulce Pontes,
Teresa Salgueiro (with the band Madredeus),
Amalia Rodrigues
This is this style of singing. I have seen people who can't speak a word of Portuguese and never heard fado cry, when they listen to it.
thank you so much for this! i’m a portuguese subscriber, so it’s really awesome to see you reacting to a popular person here in portugal x
What she's singing it's called Fado, it's Portugal's traditional music style
You need to understand the music that she is singing. Its Fado. All fado singers sing like this, with their mouth close. Fado is emotion. Portuguese soul. 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
This video is soooo good and interesting!! It's very good to see someone that doesn't speak Portuguese reacting to this, makes you realize how important the language itself is so important in Fado. How she sings and tells a story at the same time, and how that shapes the way she sings.
I'm very exited to see more videos from your channel!
Gringo essa é a Deusa Mariza, tenho dó por vc não entender uma palavra do português para sentir a magia do fado e da nossa língua.
If you want to hear more of her higher belting range I'd recommend watching her "Gente da Minha Terra" at the David Letterman show. Fantastic performance.
The teeth closed up type of thing is quite common when you're a Fado singer. Fado is a traditional type of music in Portugal with a very distinct unique way of singing so that's why she's doing it.
But definately check out the performance I mentioned earlier...it's really really good and soulful.
it's so cool to see that other portuguese people like myself watch your videos
Dear a portuguese singer! So happy to see it here! Great video
Fado it's not just singing it's expressing feelings trough the voice it's so much more complex than just singing that's why you see tears in every concert
Really glad to see our beloved Mariza getting reviewed by you :)
Wow man, you have grown 100k subscribers since i found you just 3 weeks ago :O Well deserved! And as a Swede who has been learning brazilian portuguese for about 1,5 years now, exploring both brazilian and portuguese culture, this video brightened me up a bit extra, keep up the awesome work! ^^
01:31 “It’s very close” because she’s trying to smile as she says the verb _sorrir_ (to smile)
im so happy that you react to a portuguese singer like really happy! its very rare for other people from other countries to react something from Portugal
It’s a very emotive song and she takes every word from the bottom of her heart.
I am really enjoying your videos and your analysis. I'm learning a lot with them, especially as I really like to understand how voice works.
I'm Portuguese it was pretty cool seeing a Mariza here in the channel. Can I suggest another one ? Check Salvador Sobral. He won Eurovision song contest in 2017 with "Amar pelos dois" but he has some stuff in English like "change", a new single called "Mano a mano", Spanish songs and covers as well and probably many others. He has a jazzy vibe that comes mostly from his past training. In my opinion he's very versatile with his voice but I'd like to see your analysis.
"Gente da Minha Terra" live from Mariza is another amazing vocal performance that you should check out.
:o portuguese singer... wasn't expecting this. Thanks you so much for reacting to a her :D
Been following you and was surprised to see this on my feed!
Very nicee
Açores, Portugal
Listen to Mariza - David Letterman's Show if you really want to be blown away by this unbelieavable singer! Portuguese pride :')
Oh my days fado in a popular YT channel?!!! I love Mariza so much! I wasn't expecting this!
yeah, here in Lisbon we speak between the teeth and Fado was born in Mouraria district in Lisbon.
I ❤️ her fados... saw her in concert ❤️❤️
That's "fado", intangible heritage of humanity. And yes, she has much more powerful songs!
That containment you see is part of the story telling for this song, for this poem. She (us) is remembering a moment when her (our) heart got broken. This moment is in the past. A memory, a longing. But something that should not be brought to the present and more than that revealed to others. That pain is not allowed to be made loud. Public. Uncontrolled. So her voice reflects that. The emotional tension is there, you can feel it but its forcefully restrained.
That is why for a portuguese speaker this is such a beautiful song. The poetry of the lyrics marries the song to tell a story. A story of a heart that was broken and suffered and now only has the longing for a time when it was whole. That hides its emotions with a fassade of serenity or melancholy
I love your videos and I felt very honoured to watch you reacting to fado
you look like you're not liking that "brake" in her voice and her closed mouth..but this is not a error,it's a tipical way of singing in Portugal.you should listening more ,it's beautiful.and they are like "tell a story" tipe of song
I am so ecstatic about you reacting to Mariza, Chuva! Thank you! Please do more Fado.
isto é fado meu amigo..
É uma hestoria de amor romance simplesmente fado
What a voice. Those guitars. Amazing review
oww thank you for reacting to an artist from my country , we don't get a lot of recognition very often !
Love from Portugal! :)
Eu vi este espectáculo ao vivo na Torre de Belém, Lisboa...... obrigado Mariza
It's amazing to see there is a lots of Portuguese folks following this channel. You might want to check Amalia Rodrigues (already deceased) , the major Fado reference of all times.
Hehe, so nice to heae your reaction to fado being quite genuine and "never heard anyone sing like this" ;). Fado carries quite heavy emotions with it; "saudade" is a Portuguese word that can describe it, as a sort of happy longing (when you are both sad something can never happen again but also happy because it did, basically). The closed mouth may be more regarding our words and language other than an option, though. Keep up the channel, loving it man
And as others have pointed out, wrong piece of music to check her voice out. Try "Gente da minha terra"
WAIT OMG WAIT KEJDJSJSJS IM PORTUGUESE AND I LOVE THIS CHANNEL AND IM FREAKING OUT ????? I can’t believe I’m only seeing this now
You should react to Ana Moura - Desfado
The sort of closed harsh sound is due to the style of music. She's singing fado, and this is something you will hear other fado singers do too. It's a way to convey sorrow.
Also Continental/European Portuguese tends to have a more closed sound to it's vowels so this is also in part because of that. I'm very happy to see you listening to the fado. It's a really big part of our culture. I hope you will continue to listen to it and that you will get much joy from it.
Hi Sam Johnson. Marisa started to sing Fado at 6 years old and later on during her teens she sang metal and rock. She went back to Fado when she became famous. The hoarseness you mentioned is actually very similar to her talking voice.
In regards to high notes Fado doesn’t have very high notes because while singing Fado the “goal” isn’t the technique or high notes or even a clean or beautiful voice. It’s the feeling that’s imprinted on the lyrics and how they are sang. Fado is a bohemian song born in the poor neighborhoods of Lisbon and when it’s sung in Fado Houses it’s meant to be accompanied by the audience during the last instrumental bit before the last chorus by LaLaLaLa. If it had high notes it wouldn’t be possible for everyone to sing along.
Thank you for listening to a very important part of Portuguese culture and identity.
Happy to see Fado get some recognition :)
A very important fact about this show is that was a very emotional one for Mariza. She even cried in the middle of another song. I believe that the "closed mouth" / "pressed teeth" is just a way to maintain posture as she would be extremely emotional and that emotion could involuntary change the shape of mouth as she sings creating disruptance on the sound/key she was making.
Hi! You have to hear more songs from Mariza. She is an amazing portuguese singer!
The very closed sounds are usual on Fado (a traditional music style from Portugal), the style she's singing in (or the one she is based on). Also something characteristic from Fado is that "abused" tremolo
I am Portuguese and I am really proud to see that Mariza is known outside. I think you should listen 'Mariza- O Tempo Não Para' I think you Will like it
Omg sam you’re so attractive!! Aaaaaaaahhh why
Chen L So true!!!!
good genetics
Fado is sang in a very unique particular way, its amazing. Listen to other fadistas, they all have such different voices but the sound is very specific. ;) im from Portugal, just discovered your channel, so entertaining!
Really appreciate your comments. Fado is a unique kind of music in the world, originally from Portugal and is a Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity. Mariza is one of the biggest singers in these modern times. Each singer gives Fado its own personal touch, its feelings and without undestanding a word of Portuguese, people are able to feel all the emotions and feelings that this type os song and music is intended to give us. Thats what makes Fado unique and universal. Listen to more songs and singers and you'll be able to understand it. Regarding Mariza, several others Fados are available and every one of them tell you a story and reveal her unique voice, capacity and style.
Queen of (Fado)
After Amalia Rodrigues!
Not to mention( Dulce Pontes)
Hi Sam. In the first part that you see her smile, closing the mouth and see her teeth it's normal of the performance because in that part she talks about the smile that she'll never forget. So it's only performance. Fado is really different than other styles of music. There is not higher voices in Fado. Normally they use the range of talking. More throat than diafragma. Fado is an expression of missing someone, missing something. We called it "saudade". This word doesn't have translation to other languages, it's only ours. It's like you want to embrace someone or something but you really can't even when you try your best. Thank you for listening to her 😍 Great job
Ayyy you did Fado! Tbh you should look into that (not necessarily for a RUclips video, but just cuz I think you'd find it interesting as a music genre/style). Many Fado singers sing like that, like they're singing while inhaling as opposed to exhaling & most of the songs are written about saudade (the feeling of missing something or someone or sometime or somewhere... You get it) which is why it sounds a lil bit like weeping
I already saw many people saying she's singing fado but what I'd really like to add is that "fado" comes from the Latin word "factum" which means destiny. So they say who sings fado is singing destiny. What this means is that fado is all about feelings, more than hitting notes and all that stuff, and the lyrics are also usually very poetic!
This one is a machine. She does whatever she wants with her voice. Nothing is a non-purposefully.
1:32 "maaaaaaake... SMILE!"
*Smiles*
"the mouth is so closed"
No shit
Sam, you're channel is so good, I love music and I love to learn about singing technics, and you teaches it so well. Congratulations.
It would be great if you react to Jordan Smith on The Voice USA, he's just amazing.
Kisses from Brazil!!!
Yes!
She's singing Fado (fate). We sing with the soul and every one feels it has you did. You should find out more of Portugal
Everytime that I show Fado to a non brazilian or portuguese musician, they get impressed! I'm a huge fan of Fado! You should look do Amalia Rodrigues and Carminho. You gonna be in love!!! Is a very passionate and true peculiar way to sing!!!
React to Marina and the diamonds
Fado ❤️ React to Gente da Minha Terra from the same concert! Never thought I would see Portugal on this channel 😊
Please react to Lara Fabian - Caruso
I think she is the best singer ever
Fado is Portugal's own style of singing. If you search, we even have a special of guitar (Portuguese guitar ) used to this type of music
Portuguese from Portugal is spoken with a very closed mouth. It would be fun if you could react to one the greatest singer from Brazil, Elis Regina. Because in Brazil our Portuguese is more open, we articulate the same vowel with so many different sounds but we have a more nasal sound. Our accent is completely different from Portugal. Maybe it would be enlightening to see the way different accents affect singing. Elis Regina is a goddess but she never ever had vocal training. I suggest this song: ruclips.net/video/6kVBqefGcf4/видео.html
Sam..oi. Sou brasileira, familia portuguesa. MARUZA É DE PORTUGAL, e esse canto é um fado. Fado é sempre um.lamento, um choro. Tem.muitas músicas lindas.

Feeling blessed
fado is all about suppressed emotion that pushes its way forward. her delivery is flawless for the fado style
MORE MORE MORE MARIZA PLZ
welcome to Portugal and welcome to Fado!
A wonderful artist and your reaction is precious
sam please reactruclips.net/video/BhbxqAIfBbA/видео.html
That stylist jaw tension is mandatory to interpret this unique Portuguese music style, to sing Fado you always have to use this technique, it is a powerful tool to express sadness and melancholy (main characteristic of this music style).
I'm so happy to seeing you reacting to a portuguese singer!! I really like her and the way she sings and i also thing it's a very unique way
Try "gente da minha terra" live in Lisbon. Also, with Mariza
In the beginning, the song was talking about feelings that makes a person smile, so it was part of the performance to be smiling, her choice for better immersion, her face is also singing...
In the end she was expressing sadness and loneliness, she was really expressing those emotions, and she will often cry when going to dark feelings. Those sounds dont come from techniques, they come from emotions. Things that milenials will not understand XD
ohh thank you so much for reacting to fado!
React to Maria Rita singing Como Nossos Pais (Maria Rita - Como Nossos Pais). It's an absolutely stunning song sang by one of Brazil's greatest singers. I am a hundred percent sure your whole Brazilian audience would LOVE to see that!
Even though I came to your channel through a Kpop reaction you did, I'm really glad you don't only do Kpop reactions. This video was super interesting and the song is just plain beautiful, just like Mariza herself.
