Thom Yorke's smooth, sedated vocal approach sounds simple enough... Until you actually try some of his lines. There is a true art form in being able to sound detached and emotionally engaged at the same time.
We get to study his dynamics and placement choices as well a get a good listen to the vocal production involved in Radiohead's "Creep".
The effects on the vocals are going to surprise you. The way the fully produced track is mixed... You'd never know how saturated and wet everything is... Fun stuff :)
1:47 that was the most Thom Yorke's face expression I've ever seen
TY is a great singer but The subtle imperfections in pitch and cracking of his voice are amazing and really make the song have the angsty emotional impact it had on me when I was growing up. Many producers today, as you say, would pitch correct these areas or tell TY to sing from the belly and open the back of his throats in the moments his voice cracks but this organicness brings life to music like this.
"So *wet* " - Chris Liepe 2021
internet so boring
Omg Chris this is pure gold. I've been snging each phrase with you, trying to find the vocal posture as the track goes. Tom's such a genius and your analysis is great. Thank you so much.
This is great! Thank you… requesting some Pearl Jam (black) isolated vocals 🙏🏽
What an amazing video showcasing vocal artistry! Without the music, and hearing every little breath - he sings it so perfectly imperfect. Like someone ripped out his heart and broke it into a million pieces - something we can ALL relate to. The cracks, soft tones and rasp all take us on an emotional journey - as if he was sitting next to us somewhere telling us what happened, ready to break down. If it was perfect, I don't think it would have the same impact. Probably why it's one of the most famous and covered songs out there!
And jeez, Chris! You're some kind of vocal wizard/chameleon - you could sound like almost everyone! Amazing! LOL
Hey Chris! You definitely should check out Creep 1997 pink pop concert. The best Creep performance ever:)
The live A4 belt there is incredible, pinkpop was thom yorke at his peak
isnt it 1996?
@@zerronyx1362 it wasn’t his peak, his peak was probably 2003, but ofc he sounded extremely good in pinkpop
brian justin crum did a HELLA good one
Thanks so much for this video. I had no idea TY had so much reverb on his voice in the recording. Also interesting how his subtle delivery at the beginning is still very powerful. It makes the dynamics later in the song more interesting.
Wooow Chris could exactly copy this song. Just amazing. It’d be fantastic to hear him cover it. Although I guess he essentially did in parts in this video. Ha. Great stuff
Man, I don’t “sing” per say, but you make my “trying” to sing so fun and informative! Thank you! And damn if don’t totally nail it in your replication of his performance! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Good Breakdown straight to the point instead of others who this. Good stuff Chris
Definitely one of the great rock singers. Such a unique voice. I think I heard him once say he wished it was dirtier and grittier and not so pretty. I guess even the Thom Yorkes of the world sometimes don't like their voice :)
Great analysis Chris!
He definitely grew as a singer going into the next few records but even before this record I’ve heard demos of it and other songs like “You” and he was definitely struggling with the higher notes. You could tell it was there but it’s clearly something he worked at.
Please do video on making harmonies for a song and also how to make a choir
This has always been one of my favorite songs... remember when MTV played music?
I remember covering this song and I literally busted my gut trying to sustain that high A note.
This is just AWESOME work. Thanks so much
Thank you, that was a very clear explanation about the song. It really, really helped me.
I really love how you take learning and experimenting to a FUN place!..... Also, the scruffy beard looks good.
One of the best videos I ever watched. Really impressed by the way you explained, edited, and sang this song.
omg i loved this video! seems like the best way to study a song as a singer is go for the isolated voice track can get all subtleties now thanks!
Amazing aproach to describe such an incredible song
This is probably my favorite video of yours so far. I love Thom Yorke’s vocals. They’re so beautiful. They also fit my voice very well so I very much enjoy singing along to Radiohead songs.
Here because my amazing job is having a karaoke contest. Creep was on the list of songs you can pick and i wanna destroy and amaze my coworkers and the run, run, run RUUUUUN part makes me dizzy after belting it. Thank you, this video helps, ive got 3 weeks to practice
How’d it turn out?
@Chrystianvigil I still get compliments to this day but it was more a popularity contest lol. It was fun which is all that matters and it's ON next time 👌😎
how you mimic Thom Yorke is so good, I think of the mockingbird
Love starting off my day with some Chris Liepe!
Is it only me, myself and i the inly one who thinks that Tom and Chris have really similar voices?
Hey Chris are you for hire to sing people to sleep?
Man i love this guy.
*More videos from the most handsome Best teacher ever!!*
Wow, this does sound a lot different with isolated vocals. Thank you for this video.
Great job Chris. I really enjoy the isolated tracks. You nail exactly what they do. Awesome bro. 👍👍
Great video!!!!!! Pulling out some great introspective dynamics.
Probably the only creep vocal analysis which is positive lol, every other "vocal coach" analysis is just them ragging on the creep vs the air I breathe then complaining about how thom goes off pitch at certain points
I would really appreciate a Depeche Mode analysis. Cheers!
Sooo wet lol, both the vocals and the girls that listen to them....
bro how is your head voice so good
Mindful practice like i show in my courses! :) thank you for enjoying!!
Excellent work Chris. At times I found you sounded more like Matt Bellamy trying to sing like Tom Yorke, not that there is anything wrong with that.
you're amazing dude, i love your videos
Thanks Chris.
This made me want a Lightning Crashes or I Alone breakdown.
Great analysis man! a top one!
Awesome!! Love it Chris 😊
Also it's gonna take me quite some time I guess until I can get signed up for classes. A bunch of things came up recently , but I still plan to get all signed up and get going with you eventually. Best teacher in the world IMO
I love this entire series! (hope Dave Gahan is in your que)
these are really cool and helpful, keep doing them
Yes, more signal chain ideas, blended voice, fry and compression.
I bet York trained and worked on these things too.
Most people think you are just born a singer.
I thought that way too and I wouldn't allow myself to sing because of that :(
@@ZmeyMusic well my hope for you is that you have moved past that and are on the path to developing your musical voice.
Amazing! I'm working on a cover and this video is super helpful, cheers Chris
Amazing video! This is one of my fav tracks and you nailed in this analysis.
Would you mind if I ask you to make a video about Big Wreck's Ian Thornley? Albatross, live.
Thanks!
This is free premium lesson
Chris, why «Creep»??! So many good Radiohead or Thom Yorke songs ;)
Partially because it is very popular, and partially because these are the isolated vocals I could find :)
But I loved the video. Discovered that song through a new angle!
Because it's also a good song.
Creep is a good song too. . Perhaps overplayed on radio tho.
@@chrisliepe I vaguely remember them releasing stems around the time in rainbows was released. Possibly still available. Would be cool to hear your take on his later style.
Thom goes full Bono on the "run"
Awesome video
Amazing lesson! I am shocked that you broken down so many songs that I like!
thank you
You're welcome
I love that the subtitles said "I'm a cream"
haha
Very good video...
Billy talent please,isolated vocals would be soooo cool.
12:56 you went full Jonathan Davis there :)
Once again quality content, would you be so kind as to let me know the songs you sing in the into? They're bloody awesome
Daaaaaeeeeeeaaaaaammmnnnnmeeewnnn
This isolated vocal track really drives home why this is such a good song. Never mind the fact that it's been overplayed the past 30 years and Radiohead and their fans pretend they don't like it (me excluded, I love it and Pablo Honey.) It's a solid ass song no matter what.
Hey Chris, the long "run" at 11:51, is this belting or mixed voice?
Chest voice BELT... but he uses mix a lot more in later albums/songs.
@@chrisliepe Cool thanks!
You just called me a creep or 😮
There's some hardcore Bono action going on
How do you even did it so effortlessly
Hey I absolutely love your channel Chris. You should do a reaction/analysis to any YUNGBLUD song. He has a really unique tone and screaming technique that would be cool to breakdown.
Great idea!
Hello Chris ! can you do a video about Maria Brink from In This Moment please?
Cool breakdown he's great! But I like the way Brian Crum sings it better. Your even singing it better to me.
Hey Chris off this subject to your the four roles of a guitar in a mix sneak peek via Recording rev. You record your guitars in stereo and then pan them hard left or hard right, but in lpx you're panning a stereo recorded inst. incorrectly. Just wondering why record in stereo instead of mono if you're panning them hard left or hard right, wouldn't to many guitars recorded in stereo be over kill? Just wondering cause for some people and mixer's receiving all the guitar multi-tracks in stereo can be too much. Thanks for the great vids and info. Cheers :-)
Not in stereo. It’s a mini file. Pro tools does mono to stereo on the faders for effects.
@@chrisliepe Oh, okay, so you imported those files from protools into Logic Pro X (lpx) and you're saying that even though the bass gtr is showing in mono that the gtr tracks are in mono too, even though they're showing stereo in the channel strip panned hard L and hard R? Got it, Thanks. Cheers:-)
@@chrisliepe if you put your mini files from protools into LPX on an audio output mono track it would be true mono for LPX, but you put your mono track from protools on a stereo audio track in LPX, does it matter in digital recording and Logic Pro X?
hi Chris,off topic but I recently found out about the Adele’s vocal chords surgery and after reading all of the posts like “loud doesn’t mean good it will damage you” I feel uneasy,I love her style big and lush and so many vocalists do high intense stuff,does this mean we are all doomed?...My air support is right I don’t push if i feel like a note is too high it starts “scratching my throat” BUT bet Adele knee it all and still got in trouble is it about making breaks or changing your approach?Might be an idea for a video if you don’t have one like that yet
This is a great idea for a video! I've already done a few on Airflow that you might want to check out! Start with "Why Your Voice Get's Tired" and "Why You Get Hoarse" These both address what you're talking about!
@@chrisliepe checked them out-wonderful exercises,would you say using compression helps drying your chords?
@@Mr-sd7ez this is an old comment, but compression actually avoids drying out ur throat because ur holding more air back
Can u do the tutorial for the high note? I can never get to do it right
FIrst of all I recommend you to have a look at ruclips.net/video/t_wju9Numnk/видео.html . If you want to sing like this you need a proper understanding of how everything works. I mean abdominal muscles and stuff like that. You need to warm up. To make it all easier you should join Chris's vocal course. I STRONGLY RECOMMEND YOU TO DO THIS :)
X2 you are able to do it now?
u should try analyzing bruno mars

Hi Chris, please listen to the Haley Reinhart version of Creep with Post Modern Jukebox. It's unbelievable!
How to sing Fix You?
1:17
what playlist are these isolated vocal found in on ur channel
1 year later but how you do the long run note? I cant do it my voice sounds out of tune
Pushing your nose down without your hands helps a lot, it’s very nasal and just feel confident doing it.

Thom's voice sound so good here. I feel like his voice fell off starting with Kid A. On the first three albums, he had such range, power, and ease. Now he always sounds strained and thin. I wonder why that is. Age? Change in technique? Production?
"the voice is always a moving target" -Chris Cornell. I think all of those factors you mentioned play into his vocal change. I still love what he does with it though for sure!
Change on musical style. It just suits the music he makes now more. He’d still have been capable of those things after Kid A. Now not so much but he’s still amazing.
Isn't his technique super natural, not contrived. It's like his posture is very relaxed and what you're pointing out is the incidental effects of emotion except the obvious changes in resonance?
Ramsteins Till Lindemann
How bout you analyze a talented vocalist like Anthony green, Jonny craig, Peter Collins etc?
well, if you think Thom isn't talented, you haven't been paying attention.
@@mrspiral13 ok
He sings like he was drunk
