Julián Escalante I’m not talking about when he does his high notes I’m talking about in some notes which are easy for him, for example in Carolina, he does it to make a note change in a certain sound
It was all going fine, I was liking you a lot until you decided to critique his clothing choices, thought you were a vocal coach, not a fashion police agent
First, Harry is wearing Gucci! We love his eclectic taste in clothing. Second, he has bad hay fever or allergies so the first clip-he’s also about 16 there-that could be the reason why you didn’t think it was that great. Third, I’ve seen all of these clips and yes they’re live. The clip where you questioned if it was live or not was done in the Abbey Road studio and yes, it was live. Fourth, when someone makes what you referred to as a messed up face, not round could be because of a facial thing that happens when he sings. Nobody sings perfectly and besides, its his style. Fifth, Harry has stated that Sign of The Times makes him emotional when he sings it. Its a very personal song to him so if he’s slightly and I mean very slightly flat, it’s probably because he’s emotional. If you’d seen the end of the song his eyes were tearing. He was emotional. Sixth, these video clips spanned about eight years. For a guy especially lots of things change your voice from the time you’re 16 to 24! By the way, I’m a 58 year old woman who’s had lots of exposure to music, all styles and I think you were a bit harsh in your criticism.
I disagree with you. It’s his channel he can critizes as he wants and honestly I liked all the criticism he gave. It’s coming from the opinion of a vocal coach not a fan who’s only going to say good things. I personally want to hear anything overly spectacular that he does and anything bad that he does to learn.
@Decrypt You are aware that he is a "vocal coach" and should recognise the difference between these types of things, meaning he SHOULD be saying the correct thing. If he doesn’t actually know/see/hear the difference in his voice especially when talking about straining and live vocals he truly needs to go through the differences again. This is also only one video with only 13 samples and if you want an accurate description or overlook of Harrys vocals you should include more samples of his voice. Sorry but I’ve seen a lot of more accurate analysis of Harrys vocals then this one...
Y'all Harry Styles fans are bat shit for real! The "critical" things he said were barely criticisms, they were just random musings and things he happened to notice. This overall commentary was VERY complimentary and praised him throughout. But no one is perfect or without flaw, not even your precious Harry
1) Don’t make fun of Harry’s outfits. 2) I’m glad you like Harry’s voice. I agree it’s really powerful and he really can hit high notes. 3) He chooses to do the strain as for that is his style of more open and louder high notes.
he can make fun of harry's outfits if he wants to how does that bother you .could you make a reaction of him singing and talk about the mistakes harry is doing these are meant for professional vocalists and adam did it perfectly. even harry himself has mocked about his clothing sometimes
For SOTT Guy: “he knew his voice was shaky on the high note so he avoided it” Harry: *continues singing perfectly while he hits the other 3 high notes perfectly* Guy: Me: 💁🏽♀️
where are all these “vocal teachers” coming from ? i swear ever since tristan paredes uploaded him reacting, there’s like 700 other vocal teachers on youtube now this video is: too much for me ‼️ also don’t: question harry’s outfit choices. he will literally cut you with his jawline
I was wondering the same thing lmao ever since I started watching him more vocal coaches came out and then they react to Harry or one direction all together I’m like 🤨🧐
Harry isn’t strayning he chooses to have that kind of aggressive voice. Oh and btw the This person who made this video chose his worst vocals he’s had. HES HAS WAY BETTER VOCALS I SWEAR.
harry was younger and less experienced (not saying he was bad because he is amazing) when he was singing those higher notes. his voice obviously changed a lot which is why he sounds a lot better now because he has a lot more experience. he was 16 then, now he is older. there will be an obvious voice change. Harry is an amazing singer and I don’t personally think he strains a lot. Harry is smart he knows what is right for his voice. I feel like he feels comfortable when he sings those high notes, which is why he chooses to sing them. His live performances will probably have a few mistakes and flat notes. its a live performance not a recording. (these are just my thoughts no one take these personally)
In my opinion i feel like when harry styles hits high notes he isint struggling at all but hes adding more of an effect to the song that matches to the songs emotions and thats a style of doing it or thats his style of singing i dont think hes straining at all,your mouth doesnt have to be semetrical when singing to ✌not be straining✌ im sorry its just my opinion
He's not struggling but I feel like he's kinda straining bc even though he had a coach his whole career he decided to keep self taught. I think that's why he sounds kinda flat in some performances. But there's something undeniable, his voice is really unique, it's so obscure yet so sweet that it amazes me.
@@JulesBox true that every human being surely is when singing is gonna have flat notes and shit lol cause ee arent perfect but what you said is right x
Jennifer Connolly I agree that he isn’t straining, another vocal coach (Tristan) on RUclips agrees as well saying that he does because he knows the tone of his songs and he knows how to create emotion
He's still straining even if he adds those distortion for emotional purpose. There's a way to scream without tearing off your throat and he has a bad habit to scream with chest instead of his diaphgram. I'm not attacking him by the way because I like his voice and music but I also have a knowledge about singing and I can recognise when someone is straining with screams or not. I myself learnt for years how to properly scream so I kinda feel how much his throat must hurt after those throaty screams.
I believe that most of Harry’s facial expressions and mouth movements during singing are a stylistic choice. He clearly can sing high notes without making those movements (i.e. the Two Ghosts clip). I think he understands the style and genres that are perfect for his voice and makes choices like that to further show that. I think people are quick to assume he’s straining, but he has shown on more than one occasion that he can hit those notes just fine. He may have an off performance every once in a great while, but no one is perfect. As to your comment about Sign of the Times, I think it’s awesome that it did so well. Not only is it great to see so many people accepting and praising Harry, but it also shows that his fans aren’t just a bunch of teen girls that love typical pop boy band music. Those same girls, women, boys, and men that have loved Harry for years aren’t surprised by his success. We knew he was a legend in the making a long time ago. Thanks for reacting to Harry. Looking forward to more in the future. All the love. 💚
lmao when you were comparing the first two about how he sounded i’d just like to point out that those beginning clips were literally like 5-6ish years apart... but honestly he was around 16-17 years old in that first one and i still consider it very impressive!! and i have an inkling that the person who made the video put that clip first on purpose for sort of shock value and so you can see the difference.
It’s not straining he chooses to sing like that and it is also probably because he doesn’t use as much falsetto for his high notes as a lot of other people, he chooses to sing louder and more naturally(which sounds better either way because hello it’s Harry Styles)
@@juanhoffmann4096 ok first of all he does not wear weird stuff in any way at all, and he did say that the thing harry was wearing looked like a piece of womens clothing, which is not true because clothing shouldn’t have a gender.
Personally, I couldn't care less about how anyone's mouth is shaped when I'm listening to them sing. If they are singing well, I'm a fan. Granted so far, Harry Style's - Sign of The Times, song is the only song I actually am a fan of so far by him. When I first heard it, not even knowing it was him singing it nor did I even really know anything about him at the time, the tune was the first ear catching thing for me. And then listening to him sing with the sharps, the vibratos, the flat notes, the whole nine yards, made this song a hit with my ears and taste in music. Like I my vocal couch told me once back in the day, "nobody knows the proper notes of a song better than the singer/songwriter." I think Harry Styles did an outstanding job with it. And after learning who he was, I began listening to all of his work all the way back to the beginning of One Direction. And absolutely yes! He came a very long way from back at the start of his career. This Sign of the Times song, Harry's vocals for some reason, makes me think of, Steve Perry and John Cougar. It's so old school to me, which with my taste in music, is a great thing!
why? they're not always perfect but nobody is. every artist sings better some days than others. overall the critcism makes sense, nothing about it is emotional, it's about harry's techniques and he is an incredible singer but even he has days where he's not as good as others, and i am a huge fucking fan so i love the good and bad, it shows he's still human and lets his mistakes show which makes you know it's not being edited by autotune
in the first clip he was 17-18, he was still younger and his voice was changing 😂 and hes literally sick allllllll the time so it wouldn’t surprise me if he was sick. also it was an acoustic so he was going for more of a raw sound. and he knows he does the mouth thing, he does it to achieve a certain sound, he does it mostly to bring out vowels
Exactly 🙄 Harry wrote the song so I think he would know more what notes he intended than this guy. There is no rule that every note needs to match the phrase before it.
Not to be rude but you compared a clip of him being 16 not mastering his technique being solo to a clip years later with different song dynamics, situation and posture... But yea he may have just been sick...
He is quite an interesting one. I agree on the first clip, I've always thought he was sick every time I've heard it. It's not the best and not the worst I've ever heard. I loved Sign Of The Times for the retro vibes. I personally listen to a ton of that style of music so it was nice to see a modern artist go to it, and now look at how many people are following that route. Even going his route with fashion in these suits. Solid live show too by the way if you ever catch him. I went to two of his shows this year, one at the Ryman (so fairly small venue and early early in the tour), and Bridgestone Arena (definitely bigger and toward the end of the tour) and it was neat to hear the difference in him.
I started to hate this video when he compared the first video w the other one, he WAS 16 OKK .... AND then he STARTED TO critiqued his clothing choices.. I was like okok BREATHE IN AND OUT! Btw Harry Styles have the best vocals and sometimes he gets emotional during the songs and it maybe sounds weird but it is still GOOD. That is my opinion, just saying.
Harry Styles clothing is iconic, be careful what you say about it. In this fandom, we're overprotective asf and be careful what you critique, you're a singing teacher not a fashion critic. Also in Sign of the times, the note on 'sky' is meant to be slightly lower.
its funny how some vocal trainers *cough* tends to just speak out theit point of view judging from several performances without even knowing about a singer’s style in singing etc. Like saying how he always pulls in one direction indicating that he’s straining on his vocals when he actually does that all the time even on low notes. And then of course u had to point out about the outfit , like what are u doing bro?
I absolutely loved this whole content. You are a really good and constructive vocal coach. Flat is flat, no doubt about it and I loved that you cared enough to call it out. A lot of fans are getting kinda heated in the comments and I understand it, but maybe they're forgetting that your reactions are your reactions. They're genuine and constructive and I'm here for it. Thanks! x
Yea I totally agree, I'm a huge fan of 1D and Harry but I have to agree that people in the comments are getting unnecessarily defensive. Critique is critique and no singer is technically perfect; even a great singer like Harry has flaws. Pointing them out in an objective manner doesn't mean you're bashing on that singer
It’s not a strain because he does that mouth shape even on relaxed easy notes. He does it to direct the sound of his voice. Many many excellent singers do that and I think more professional singers do it more than amateurs. Harry really knows his instrument and how to use it. Dude you might need a little more education before you criticize his singing. He is singing it the way he intended it to sound and I did not hear anything flat in the one note you pointed out. He is singing LIVE with nothing perfecting his voice, it’s pretty damn near perfect and when you listen to someone live you don’t expect it to sound like a recording. You have to look at the over all sound of the whole song not nitpick one note here and there. Freddie Mercury was one of THE most amazing singers and live he would go off key here and there but it made him even more amazing. Having every single note be perfect is what you find after everything is sugar coated in the studio. Live is always better simply because it’s NOT perfect. I’ve watched several of your videos and it just seems like you want to come across as some amazing vocal coach and you can pick out these little imperfections but have you even actually mastered music theory or anything else that goes along with understanding music? Cuz it doesn’t sound like you have a clue. Just sayin.
The way he moves his mouth was intentional...he does that on almost every song even though he can reach note it wasn't because he couldn't reach it...he does that to make new sounds and note's Also his high notes are supposed to be like that since he also is a baritone and that's why it's a little shaky...also he isn't straining he chooses to do that on purpose he was 16 on the 1st one and 24 in the 2nd one
He definitely had better moments than seen in this video even though these were great. He really goes for the emotional raw vocals and it makes he music sound very honest and I think that’s what is so appealing about him and his album.
5:40 You need to get some lessons from sister Tristan. That's not straining. Harry does that on purpose so that he can get a specific sound out and he knows he is doing that. You're a clueless voice coach.
So Tristan now is the all-knowing and the wisest vocal coach that there is? FYI Tristan not so long ago couldn't sing himself so I don't think he's the most reliable vocal coach. Plus he's still practicing his singing and he has no true voice because he tries to sound like Justin Bieber. I don't think that's the sign of a good vocal coach. Wanna know really great vocal coach? Look up Ken Tamplin who's been in business for like 30 years.
Just wanted to say that he was not straining his voice in the beginning, that's how he sang when he was younger with more of a raspy sound, but he still could sing the high notes but that specific sound fit the song better.
6:08 "it's just full out screaming" Yeah it is but I've tried that kind of scream in many different songs and I've never been able to do it. There are many artists (and nonfamous people) who can do it, but many probably can't and I personally think it's so f*cking awesome people are able to make that sound, so I'd like a little more cred, but after all he's the singing teacher.
Adam, Very, very late to your reaction video but I wanted to thank you nonetheless for including Harry Styles in your selections. I am a 60 year old woman with no vocal training but I know what I like in music and I cast a very wide net in the artists and genres I gravitate toward. I've watched Harry grow for a while now and he is quite impressive. I love the gravely texture to his voice as well as his airy falsettos, he has a remarkable honesty to him which seems to become darker and richer as he ages. I believe "Sign Of The Times" was a success because of the use of live instruments, no auto tune and just a lovely blend of Harry's powerful vocals along with the band and those same instruments. Once again thank you for putting your time into this review.
You have to keep in mind that there were several years between when the first two clips were filmed. The first one looked to be when one direction was pretty new and the second one was from one of his solo songs within the last two years or so. So of course he would have developed vocally during that time.
It because in the first clip he was still young then so his voice is not yet well developed and balanced unlike the second clip in which his more older and his voice is much better than when he was young.
Idk where this “vocal teacher” is coming from because Harry styles is the best live performer I have ever heard and his outfits are amazing. Also he’s throwing all this shade when there’s absolutely no way he could be 10% as good as Harry
you can't say nothing about him cuz hes lot more talented then you he is a awesome singer BTW don't insult harry clothing cuz is rocks everything he wears.
I looooooooove Harry Styles and his voice is just amazing. I never really listened to 1D I mean I did some, but when I did I always focused on harry I felt like he was more known. I love his song sign of the times and sweet creature
What some vocal coaches mistake for “strain” in an artists vocals is literally just a chosen technique that said artist has practiced to prefect in order to manipulate/create specific sounds. He's treating his vocals like the instrument it is, he's fine tuning it and experimenting and creating really amazing sounds (Little Mixl, Ariana Grande, Camila Cabello also do this really well). It's kind of old age thinking (in regards to being a vocal coach) to hear an artist and automatically assume they're straining just because they're going about a note a different way. Also, that NY clip was fr when Harry was like, 18... He's gonna sound a tad different from then to now. If you wanna claim strain, you can probably find it in most of his younger performances, because his vocal coach was kind of shit and he was legitimately already getting sick. But especially after Zayn left, Harry got a new vocal coach (and worked more with said coach) to evolve into the better vocalist that he is today (not that he was ever bad, but he definitely learned how to use his voice as the instrument that it is).
the clip that sounds post-produced or not as live, i think it’s because that performance was part of his documentary and maybe it was modified afterwards. but i think it was recorded live

He does the mouth thing on purpose to get a certain sound. He knows he does it.
He does not do it on purpose, it's not something bad tho. I do the same thing when I got high notes and sometimes I don't even notice haha

You are aware that he is a "vocal coach" and should recognise the difference between these types of things, meaning he SHOULD be saying the correct thing. If he doesn’t actually know/see/hear the difference in his voice especially when talking about straining and live vocals he truly needs to go through the differences again.
This is also only one video with only 13 samples and if you want an accurate description or overlook of Harrys vocals you should include more samples of his voice. Sorry but I’ve seen a lot of more accurate analysis of Harrys vocals then this one...

Jenna Pyatt yupp same :(
why? they're not always perfect but nobody is. every artist sings better some days than others. overall the critcism makes sense, nothing about it is emotional, it's about harry's techniques and he is an incredible singer but even he has days where he's not as good as others, and i am a huge fucking fan so i love the good and bad, it shows he's still human and lets his mistakes show which makes you know it's not being edited by autotune
in the first clip he was 17-18, he was still younger and his voice was changing 😂
and hes literally sick allllllll the time so it wouldn’t surprise me if he was sick.
also it was an acoustic so he was going for more of a raw sound.
and he knows he does the mouth thing, he does it to achieve a certain sound, he does it mostly to bring out vowels
React to harry styles Girl Crush cover its amazing!!!!!
Yes it is
10:02 I'm pretty sure that that was on purpose cuz that's how the song sounds you genius
Exactly 🙄 Harry wrote the song so I think he would know more what notes he intended than this guy. There is no rule that every note needs to match the phrase before it.
Nah okay I don’t like when someone criticises One Direction;(( My little heart can’t handle it
DreamingOfLouis ikr, they dont even know anything abt them
Then quit being weak and sensitive, no one will respect you
Harry styles sounds good Even when he is just screaming
Not to be rude but you compared a clip of him being 16 not mastering his technique being solo to a clip years later with different song dynamics, situation and posture...
But yea he may have just been sick...
Btw, on #12 the highlight was Harry's ability to sing all that in one breath. Or at least, that's what I found interesting.
Mary Curls YESS
First of all harry is just amazing in hisself but ok hes just being rude and I dont really believe hes a singing teacher soooooo right
Harry styles along with Zayn Malik are two impressive voices.........
He is quite an interesting one. I agree on the first clip, I've always thought he was sick every time I've heard it. It's not the best and not the worst I've ever heard. I loved Sign Of The Times for the retro vibes. I personally listen to a ton of that style of music so it was nice to see a modern artist go to it, and now look at how many people are following that route. Even going his route with fashion in these suits. Solid live show too by the way if you ever catch him. I went to two of his shows this year, one at the Ryman (so fairly small venue and early early in the tour), and Bridgestone Arena (definitely bigger and toward the end of the tour) and it was neat to hear the difference in him.
Pam Smith but i love how he sounds in the first clip...
Pam
Color me jealous!!!
I started to hate this video when he compared the first video w the other one, he WAS 16 OKK .... AND then he STARTED TO critiqued his clothing choices.. I was like okok BREATHE IN AND OUT!
Btw Harry Styles have the best vocals and sometimes he gets emotional during the songs and it maybe sounds weird but it is still GOOD. That is my opinion, just saying.
you are comparing his vocals from a clip from 2012, when he was 17-18, to another one where he is 23, are you serious ¿¿???
he is 24 ;)
yes, he is now 24 but i think that clip is from last year
Of course... So what?
Harry Styles clothing is iconic, be careful what you say about it. In this fandom, we're overprotective asf and be careful what you critique, you're a singing teacher not a fashion critic. Also in Sign of the times, the note on 'sky' is meant to be slightly lower.
its funny how some vocal trainers *cough* tends to just speak out theit point of view judging from several performances without even knowing about a singer’s style in singing etc. Like saying how he always pulls in one direction indicating that he’s straining on his vocals when he actually does that all the time even on low notes. And then of course u had to point out about the outfit , like what are u doing bro?
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Carpool karaoke Harry styles please
He loooks at harry like his in love haha I feel ya dude
I absolutely loved this whole content. You are a really good and constructive vocal coach. Flat is flat, no doubt about it and I loved that you cared enough to call it out. A lot of fans are getting kinda heated in the comments and I understand it, but maybe they're forgetting that your reactions are your reactions. They're genuine and constructive and I'm here for it. Thanks! x
Yea I totally agree, I'm a huge fan of 1D and Harry but I have to agree that people in the comments are getting unnecessarily defensive. Critique is critique and no singer is technically perfect; even a great singer like Harry has flaws. Pointing them out in an objective manner doesn't mean you're bashing on that singer
Shahadan Yusuf he did criticize his fashion, when he is supposed to be reacting to his voice
HE GETS EMOTIONAL WHEN HE SINGS SIGN OF THE TIMES KNOW UR FACTS SIR
these aren't even his best vocals....
Exactly
Also on girl almighty what was so amazing is that he did that all in one breath and still sounded like a freaking god
It’s not a strain because he does that mouth shape even on relaxed easy notes. He does it to direct the sound of his voice. Many many excellent singers do that and I think more professional singers do it more than amateurs. Harry really knows his instrument and how to use it. Dude you might need a little more education before you criticize his singing. He is singing it the way he intended it to sound and I did not hear anything flat in the one note you pointed out. He is singing LIVE with nothing perfecting his voice, it’s pretty damn near perfect and when you listen to someone live you don’t expect it to sound like a recording. You have to look at the over all sound of the whole song not nitpick one note here and there. Freddie Mercury was one of THE most amazing singers and live he would go off key here and there but it made him even more amazing. Having every single note be perfect is what you find after everything is sugar coated in the studio. Live is always better simply because it’s NOT perfect. I’ve watched several of your videos and it just seems like you want to come across as some amazing vocal coach and you can pick out these little imperfections but have you even actually mastered music theory or anything else that goes along with understanding music? Cuz it doesn’t sound like you have a clue. Just sayin.
React to harry styles Girl Crush cover
The way he moves his mouth was intentional...he does that on almost every song even though he can reach note it wasn't because he couldn't reach it...he does that to make new sounds and note's
Also his high notes are supposed to be like that since he also is a baritone and that's why it's a little shaky...also he isn't straining he chooses to do that on purpose he was 16 on the 1st one and 24 in the 2nd one
HARRY STYLES DOES NOT STRAIN. He just has his own style
Omg finally someone else who agrees with me!
And actually has a brain
Both of you are crazy
So you're saying that even if he does mess up, it's just "his style"? Lol. He's not the most perfect singer ever.
do one for Louis!!!
but if you insult him- you're dead :)
"if you don't agree with my opinion
....
You're dead"
Bruh that’s how he rolls man he does that for his voice to sound like that, he knows his voice and song type
and his outfits are gorgeousss so ;)
He definitely had better moments than seen in this video even though these were great. He really goes for the emotional raw vocals and it makes he music sound very honest and I think that’s what is so appealing about him and his album.
5:40 You need to get some lessons from sister Tristan. That's not straining. Harry does that on purpose so that he can get a specific sound out and he knows he is doing that. You're a clueless voice coach.
Stela Kau and i thought he is a vocal coach..being biased i think
So Tristan now is the all-knowing and the wisest vocal coach that there is? FYI Tristan not so long ago couldn't sing himself so I don't think he's the most reliable vocal coach. Plus he's still practicing his singing and he has no true voice because he tries to sound like Justin Bieber. I don't think that's the sign of a good vocal coach. Wanna know really great vocal coach? Look up Ken Tamplin who's been in business for like 30 years.
His only angel performnce that you said was produced and not live was in fact live from studio so...
Yes, but it's post-produced, the same way concert DVDs are. Many mistakes and inconsistencies can be fixed that way.
gottogetaway oh right
Someone should make a more updated vid of his best moments
harry singin is a feeling....and...he slays every outfit he wears...he puts all his heart into his every performance
Please react to more Harry Styles!!!!
Yes
its almost a year after you posted this and I'm crying laughing at 1am in bed at your facial expression at 11:43 to harry singing hahahahahahah
his clothes are perfect! and so is his voice...rant over🙃
DUUUUDE THERES A HUGE YEAR GAP BETWEEN THOSE TWO I MEAN IM NOT YELLING BUT CMON LOOK HE'S A BABYY
Why is this guy literally copying Tristan paredes
kay v ikr. No tea no shade but all the tea and shade
kay v Yh I’ve noticed that as well and there is another girl vocal coach who has started doing it as well 😂
JasparSDMN.Edits i think i know who are you talking about, i think her name is Rebecca or smth
ana ninua Yh that’s her
More than one vocal coach can react to the same video
I noticed that his mouth always pulls in ONE DIRECTION.
(Sorry, I have been in this fandom for a long time).😂
Just wanted to say that he was not straining his voice in the beginning, that's how he sang when he was younger with more of a raspy sound, but he still could sing the high notes but that specific sound fit the song better.
React to Perrie Edwards best vocals please. Love you💜
Yesss please react to this
PLEASE
6:08
"it's just full out screaming"
Yeah it is but I've tried that kind of scream in many different songs and I've never been able to do it. There are many artists (and nonfamous people) who can do it, but many probably can't and I personally think it's so f*cking awesome people are able to make that sound, so I'd like a little more cred, but after all he's the singing teacher.
Adam,
Very, very late to your reaction video but I wanted to thank you nonetheless for including Harry Styles in your selections.
I am a 60 year old woman with no vocal training but I know what I like in music and I cast a very wide net in the artists
and genres I gravitate toward. I've watched Harry grow for a while now and he is quite impressive. I love the gravely
texture to his voice as well as his airy falsettos, he has a remarkable honesty to him which seems to become darker and
richer as he ages. I believe "Sign Of The Times" was a success because of the use of live instruments, no auto tune and
just a lovely blend of Harry's powerful vocals along with the band and those same instruments. Once again thank you for
putting your time into this review.
Dont you just love seeing people fall in love with him? Cause i do , i love my idol
Literally first clip and second clip were like 7 years apart, he has grown as a singer since so its been put out of context.
You have to keep in mind that there were several years between when the first two clips were filmed. The first one looked to be when one direction was pretty new and the second one was from one of his solo songs within the last two years or so. So of course he would have developed vocally during that time.
It because in the first clip he was still young then so his voice is not yet well developed and balanced unlike the second clip in which his more older and his voice is much better than when he was young.
lmao he’s not straining he’s doing it on purpose to add effect and emotion into his voice. it’s different and edgy compared to others.....
He wasn’t straining in the first clip, he was nervous and he has a raspy voice naturally
3:09 and what about it ?
Ikr he is here to make a video about his vocals not outfits. And I think that outfit looks *_SO_* good on Harry
You love Harry that much that you would like him even if he's wearing a garbage bag.
Yeah like ANDDDD??? What does that have to do with his singing?
For the first one, HE WAS SIXTEEN AND STILL ROCKED IT!
More Harry Styles! Period!!!
Idk where this “vocal teacher” is coming from because Harry styles is the best live performer I have ever heard and his outfits are amazing. Also he’s throwing all this shade when there’s absolutely no way he could be 10% as good as Harry
Never insult harry styles high notes before the videos end, You GOT your coment about the note in the final clip slapped
5:04 my mouth does that naturally sometimes, idk I think my jaw is weird
you can't say nothing about him cuz hes lot more talented then you he is a awesome singer BTW don't insult harry clothing cuz is rocks everything he wears.
3:05 you just don’t question it
I looooooooove Harry Styles and his voice is just amazing. I never really listened to 1D I mean I did some, but when I did I always focused on harry I felt like he was more known. I love his song sign of the times and sweet creature
2:07 and so on
duh there gonna be different highnotes hes older in the second clip and younger in the first so obviously there will be a diffrence
NEVER INSULT HARRYS CLOTHING
that was 100% live.he is just so good that's why it looks like that
The huge difference is about 10 years
"not sure what was so amazing there but ok" Dude that man can sneeze and I'll have an eargasm
What some vocal coaches mistake for “strain” in an artists vocals is literally just a chosen technique that said artist has practiced to prefect in order to manipulate/create specific sounds. He's treating his vocals like the instrument it is, he's fine tuning it and experimenting and creating really amazing sounds (Little Mixl, Ariana Grande, Camila Cabello also do this really well).
It's kind of old age thinking (in regards to being a vocal coach) to hear an artist and automatically assume they're straining just because they're going about a note a different way.
Also, that NY clip was fr when Harry was like, 18... He's gonna sound a tad different from then to now. If you wanna claim strain, you can probably find it in most of his younger performances, because his vocal coach was kind of shit and he was legitimately already getting sick. But especially after Zayn left, Harry got a new vocal coach (and worked more with said coach) to evolve into the better vocalist that he is today (not that he was ever bad, but he definitely learned how to use his voice as the instrument that it is).
maybe you should react to his carpool karaoke :)
NEVER EVER insult harry's clothing i didn't know you were a fashion police agent.
I dont Like how he said one of the clips didnt sound live it sounded produced ummmm go look at another live version of that song they song the same
#4 was live (he had no effect on his voice)
Yep, because he’s THAT good! It was not produced but this guy is clueless so 🤷🏻♀️
the clip that sounds post-produced or not as live, i think it’s because that performance was part of his documentary and maybe it was modified afterwards. but i think it was recorded live
DO NOT INSULT HIS CLOTHING IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HIS SINGING
That sky thing was on purpose dude
Harry’s voice is so good oml😍
you commented harry's vocals like you are somehow perfect in singing lol chill dude
How do his clothes have anything to do with his vocals? I mean....
