I went to school with Jewel. She made me my own song she’d yodel at me every morning as I came in grumpy and mad and she always never failed to cheer me up. She’s a treasure and I’ll always feel grateful for knowing her.
@muumol
What a beautiful memory. Thank you for sharing it with us.
Please, please tell me you’re not serious.
You lucky girl! What else can u tell us about her?!
She was beautiful then as she is now! Inside and out. She was a quiet and shy person and very kind. Always helping someone who was upset. It’s like she was grown before all of us by years.
Yodeling seems to have been developed in Switzerland as a method of calling sheep/cattle. I grew up in the foothills of the Smoky mountains and it was really a fairly common talent there. It is particularly used in mountainous areas as a method of communication because it travels well across values.
Carol Burnett your a good yodeler in your Tarzan call!
Jewel's grandfather, Yule Kilcher, was born in Switzerland.
That was my thought, Switzerland, the Alps, or something like that. I'm not a country fan either, nor a yodeling fan. But good on you for the analysis!!
“ Plantenga suggests that yodeling most likely originated in Africa, "at the beginning of mankind, when man decided he could do different things with his voice. ”
Hi ‘‘twas a shepherd being chased up hills in Switzerland by the farmer, he cupped his hands and called, I’ve had your daughter and your old lady too, reverberated of the hills 😇
you've got to do some more live jewel. she has one of the most incredible voices i've ever heard.
ruclips.net/video/_RVYEgGgDKs/видео.html almost anyone that sees this that hasn't already will have their mind blown. she's amazing.
@@syx3s hit the like on your comment, then had to watch that performance again for the umpteenth time. Great jazz performance. Jewel is so amazing in that '99 concert. You are spot on and I hope Fil reviews that video.
Agreed - her "Oh Holy Night" version is one of my favorites....
Your so young but you should check out her pieces of you album
I was listening Foolish Games...what a voice...
If you’ve ever heard her sing with her father you’ll know where her yodeling talent comes from. Unrelated bit of trivia: the tv show Alaska the Last Frontier is about her extended family. Otz Kilcher is her father
Yes! I had forgotten that fact, thanks!
One of our favorite shows.
She did not want her family to do that show. 💔
I had no idea that Jewel could yodel.
Jewel's first album in 1995, Pieces of You, was on the Billboard 200 chart for two years and peaked at #4. It had three top 10 hits on the album. She has been nominated four times for a Grammy award though she did not win.
Yodelling is how she started with her dad in Alaska!
Hey guys, if you want to help Fil be more prosperous in his channel here is some info you need to read about ads:
If the ad is thirty seconds or less, watching the whole ad will earn the RUclipsr more money, but if the ad is longer than thirty seconds, you are not earning the RUclipsr any additional revenue after that first thirty seconds.
I watch at least 30 seconds of RUclipsr's I support because often it's their major livelihood and why not, Fil works hard entertaining us with his analysis, his guitar playing and vocals and his great personality. Support Fil People!!
Thanks for the kind words!
@@wingsofpegasus Hi Fil, not to be a broken record but if it's okay I'm going to publish this message occasionally so your subscribers get educated on how to help you most.
Thanks Peter,
I didn’t know this information before. I will certainly do my best to add to Fil’s revenue. He really deserves it! ☺️
Swiss-Canadian here, yodelling is from the European alps, particularly Switzerland and Austria and was used mostly for communication between valleys and mountains before being put into musical form. It is extremely popular there, I recommend Oesch's die Dritten, a famous Swiss family group. The daughter Melanie is the best yodeller I've ever seen. In the USA it's been borrowed and used in some country songs. Super interesting to see this with the voice software!
You should look into her life, her musical career and know that she is very popular in US for many years now. Love her so much.
Jewel is such a versatile artist!
She so impressed me on The Masked Singer. She was so much more versatile than when she was popular as a Lilith Fair-adjacent singer/songwriter when I was in college.
I think over here in the States, we most equate yodeling with the Swiss and the Alps. But yodeling has a very old history here. Jimmie Rodgers, the Father of Country Music, was a yodeler whose music had quite a bit. But, if you look at the music of Appalachia, it's heritage is (the yodeling aspect, that is) from Germany and the Nordics.
I’m in ireland and when I was young I only ever heard yodelling in country music. And the sound of music of course. It was a big thing in country. Part of the genres sound.
What does this mean, She Ireland, part of the genres sound?!
@@gaymichaelis7581 Hi 👋 ! I mean that country singers often use yodel technique to give a cry to the voice - similar to old Irish keening. Off the cuff Dolly Parton and Lee Ann Rimes do it .Reba mcEntire too. And patsy cline used her yodel technique all the time . Not actual yodelling - but the technique employed as an embellishment. Male singers too. Imo it’s part of the sound of country music. Or perhaps that’s the sort of country music my parents listened to! (Country music is popular in ireland.)
@@sheireland3737 Country music started with yodeling which had been popular for traveling shows in the 1800's and was taken from Europeans as it was popular there as well. It was used heavily in country music and singing cowboy movies into the 1950's when it fell out of favor with fans.
I know what you're talking about but I don't know what to call it as it's not quite a full yodel but rather the first part of a yodel where the voice ticks up an octave. Only a handful of country singers use it now and very few of those do it correctly in my opinion. They typically overdo it and make it sound "twangy" and over the top. And this is coming from someone who was raised on old country music. I still like country music by the way.
@@lkw6640 Hi 👋. You’ve described it exactly imo. I didn’t know that was how country music started. If country loses that sound it just becomes pop with a zither.
LeAnn Rimes yodels beautifully in "Blue!"
I love how you described Jewel using her left hand as a "vertical keyboard" to help (in her mind's eye) guide her through the notes. She must have a physical gift as a vocalist to yodel. 👍☮️💜
Jewel is such an underrated artist. She's the reason I bought my first guitar back in 1997. Her voice/yodeling is so angelic. 😇😇😇
very cool fil! , agreed jewel is amazing , even outside of yodeling she has an incredible range of nuance and improvisation in her singing
Yodeling is of Swiss origin and her grandfather came over from Switzerland and homesteaded in Alaska to escape the war in Europe ( Nazi). Some of the songs she is famous for Foolish Games , Standing Still, and Who Will Save Your Soul, for example.
I bought a c.d of her lullabies when my daughters children were little and used to play it every night when they went to bed. Her voice is soooo beautiful!! Have a wonderful evening Fil... always love your videos.😊
Her Ave Maria on that album is just beyond beautiful. She can sing anything!
Wow, Fil, surprised you didn't know Jewel. Please do a deep dive into her musical life. She is an extremely gifted singer/ songwriter, week a long list of popular but songs.
When I saw the notification for you analyzing Jewel I had to come over right away. You really should analyze her song Who Will Save You soul. She give so much soul to her music. She has such a light voice that can get smooth like butter. Thanks for the analysis. Yodeling is cool😊
Keep resting that arm and keep on rocking Fil 🤘
I loved it when Roy Rogers would yodel. Also, Wylie and the Wild West.
Wylie did the yodel for Yahoo in its heyday
Jewel is amazing! Love ❤️ her!!! She's done folk, rock/pop too. She was huge in the 90's. Saw her concert 3 times. She was "discovered" here in San Diego so we claim her as ours but she came from Alaska. Homeless then hit it big. She once toured with Dylan & he helped her with a song. You have to check out some of her early stuff like "Who will save your soul."
She is not Canadian. She was born in Utah and grew up in Alaska.
@@carr0760 Alaska! That's it. Sorry. My mistake
@@cathyortiz1280 I'm Canadian and Jewel was popular when I was a young teen, so I definitely would have known if she was one of us. We don't have many! LoL
jewel's voice is so very very unique with a stunningly beautiful tone.
She knows her instrument and plays it beautifully.
Some of this song sounds like the game on the Price Is Right🤩
Whoa! That's a LOT of yodeling! Very interesting to see what it looks like...thanks!
If you're ever feeling a bit down, just watch a clip of "Undercover Kaoroke" featuring Jewell. Works every time.
Yodel - Euro in origin.
Jewel's vocal delivery was always unique.
This one brought back a memory of my sweet Swiss mother, who couldn't sing at all. But, apparently, she was given some sort of happy gas or medication during my birth, and yodeled loudly the whole time. Doctors, nurses, patients and families were entertained. True story... my father was in the delivery room - in the 50's!
Hello, how you doing?
Never heard her actually yodel ... even though she always had that break in her vocal technique that showed she could do this. I always thought "Hands" was a beautiful song. Jewel has a beautiful soul...
I'm a new viewer/subscriber (found you two days ago), and I was happily surprised to see this pop up in my feed today! Jewel was my very favorite singer from the time I was a tween first hearing Who Will Save Your Soul, until my late 20s; she has a really interesting life story, and has always written music wise beyond her years. The thing about Jewel is, when you see her live, you never quite know what you're going to get. Her voice is pretty incredible in its range of notes, textures, and colors, and the ease with which she can move between its different qualities---but she's much more about her own emotional honesty than about "good" singing, so she doesn't always sing as "well" as she CAN. (I was honestly expecting the pitch monitor to show more flatting than it did, though, so assume from that what you will about how I hear music and take with a grain of salt. :P) That's not necessarily a criticism, and like others here, I'd be interested in seeing more analysis of Jewel's music.
I find this channel just delightful, honestly. You are so clearly knowledgeable, convey that detailed knowledge clearly, and bring such a lovely openness to all the different kinds of music that you analyze. Your videos help me appreciate even recordings I've loved for years more fully. Thanks for taking this one on, and explaining not only yodeling technique, but the other things she's doing with her voice, and how she uses that left hand to facilitate. Glad to be on board!
Hello Cindy, how are you?
Thanks!
Yodeling was actually performed by males only in the Swiss Alps however it expanded through other cold countries as a way to keep the vocal cords warm during extreme harsh winter when even speach could be dangerous due to exposure to extreme cold conditions. Jewels grand mother went from Switzerland to Alaska because they were giving away homesteads. She taught her kids to sing and play music. Jewel inherited it all and persisted with learning the traditional art of yodeling.
Leann Rimes - performing “Blue” is one for you to do also. [written for Patsy Cline but she died before recording it].
Jewel is one that I’m amazed you were unfamiliar with…her song “You Were Meant For Me” was platinum I’m sure.
Both are remarkable vocalists and yodelers. Leann won season 4 of “The Masked Singer” in USA, and Jewel just won season 6…both have been stars for over 20 years…but are just not as widely known as many other great singers.
[Bobby Hatfield was also a top Pop singer able to incorporate yodeling techniques into his performances].
Fascinating, I've always wondered how yodeling works. Thanks, Fil!
Dayum. ....until I saw Joni Mitchell 's hand movements I realized I wasn't nuts for feeling the sound with my hand!
Jewel is a very respected singer and actress
Thanks for spotlighting Jewel’s beautiful gift. She is such a talented singer.
I'm not a big fan of yodelling and her style in general but I do think she has an incrediabe voice. I love the song "Oh Holy Night" song by women. I've listened to hundreds. She sings that more traditional. She sings that better than just about anyone.
I learn something from each analysis. Thank you!
Impressing ❤ great analyses Pegasus 😄
I love it that you're touching so many topics in your videos! Fantastic!
I'm sure those of us who grew up with Gene Autry, Roy Rogers and other tried to yodel, also (I can't).
How about a look at the vocals of the late Dolores O'Riordan from the Cranberries and her use of keening and yodeling. To me her yodel sounds more like the cry vocalization.
I had to smile when you talked about hand movement that you've also mentioned in other analyses. It's something that now catches my eye every time I see a singer using it. I find it interesting that someone like Myles Kennedy does it.
Hi there April S! Love your comment, agree with you about the hand movements 👍 I also agree that Fil should take a listen to The Cranberries " Zombie". . I can almost hear Dolores O'Riordan voice now, like you said, her crying vocalizations are akin to a yodel, excellent to point all that out.✌️💙
April and Cindy, you can my name to your list on Dolores O'Riordan I also love the little details like hand and body jester Fil points out.
My friends you might enjoy this one. Darci Lynne singer/ventriloquist at age 11 on "Little Big Shot" 2016

@@drewpall2598 I thought about this too! Thanks for sharing the link!
@@suelutz5364 You are welcome! 🙂
Wow! Such an incredible performance.
I love how these are analysis videos but your sudden smiles when it is particularly amazing or unique makes the comment of musical appreciation on its own.
More Jewel please, such a talent!
Wow so exciting to see you analyze a yodeler after my inquiry. You are so knowledgeable and make me see music and performance in a new way. Thanks for sharing your love of music with us
What a lovely crisp voice!
Great explanation of the technique Fil! Thanks for showcasing an interesting style and being able to break it down technically.
Another artist who utilized yodeling was Dolores O'Riordan of the Cranberries. I’d love to hear an analysis of her vocals… and also another awesome Irish vocalist, Sinead O’Conner.
Her enunciation of consonants is so sweet.
Watching this art again for the 4th time. DANG! Mind blowing . Soo amazing. Thanks bud!
Thank You! Amazing! This is like an Yodal Opera I never heard this! And never knew Jewel could yodel like this! Wow!
This was cool! I've heard of Jewel just haven't follow her career that closely good one Fil. 👍🤘
Anyone else instantly go to the yodelling puppets in "The Sound of Music" in their head?
Haha! Yes! "High on a hill..."
Ah... The lonely goat herd
🐐🐐🐐
Ah, yes!!
I have to give you one heck of a compliment for being able to explain to someone like me what is actually happening when someone yodels! I have never understood how one does it until now! TY!!!
Joe Rogan has an interview with her that’s well worth watching. Her family history and the story of her rise from nothing is pretty amazing to hear!!
Fascinating! Thanks.
Thanks for the excellent analysis Fil. As I recall Jewel did a few duets with Merle Haggard. Yodelling in country music was popular in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Hello fil..! Really pleasure' to see. you again.! All m'y Heart in music for you.!! Kisses from France.!
Didn't know that Jewel could yodel! The yodeling I remember the most is Julie Andrews in the movie The Sound of Music, "Up on a hill stood a lonely goatherd....."
I really enjoyed your analysis of Jewel, who is one of my favorite singers. As far as yodeling goes, Klaus Obermeyer is a well-known yodeler in Aspen, born in 1919. He is from Germany, started Obermeyer sports many years ago, and is very beloved to this day for all who live in Aspen and beyond. Such a wonderful smile - joy exudes from him. When I hear Jewel yodel, I think of Klaus yodeling as he skied down the hill or in the line at City Market in Aspen. The feeling just doesn’t get much better. PURE joy.
Hello, how you doing?
Jewel is awesome. I'd be interested in more of her work being reviewed
So interesting. I’m a life long Texan and have always loved to hear country folks yodel.
Great analysis of Jewel yodeling. Of the songs of her's that I've heard, I don't recall hearing her yodel. I love Elton Britt and it would be a treat for you to analyze his singing.
I cought one of your videos, The Speakers. I immediately sub-SR-EYE-BD, as you say it in England and have been taken by how much you enjoy what you are doing. I binged over weeks and learned a lot. The only musical instrument I can pay is the radio. Bravo!
🤣
My mother and aunts could all yodel! It always fascinated me! It is very hard for me to do! It is as complex as singing in whistle voice or throat singing! I am always in awe. I can yodel mediocrely.
Yodeling is pretty cool. I like hearing it live
Country Western?
Try Country Eastern. Like the East of Switzerland. I live now in the western part of Switzerland and we have just choral groups. But we are so close to the German speaking part that everybody has to yodel.
To be elected to Swiss government and be seated on the Federal Council, you have to yodel the national anthem.
Laut Lachen.
Great. I was fairly sure yodeling was from Switzerland, but not certain.
It definitely originated in Switzerland, but it was a huge part of old school Country and Western music in the US.
@@carr0760 agreed. As a baby in Texas I would go to sleep listening to the yodeling cowboys. Now as an old fart I have the same soundtrack.
ZZZZ
As soon as I saw you were doing a video on yodeling I immediately thought of Elton Britt and also Bill Haley who was a champion yodeller
Amazing voice.♥️
Jewel did a great job here. ... Elvis did a performance where he yodeled and it can be found on YT. Of course, Shirley Temple was well known for having mastered it, as were Roy Rogers and Andy Griffith. I really appreciate this video as I have waited for years to finally hear someone explain exactly what happens when someone yodels. Thank you!
Interesting to see yodeling broken-down like that - thank you! And Jewel's voice is always astonishing.
This is so cool that you did some jewel! I requested last week that you review her song Painter's. But I'm super excited she got on your RUclips. I was surprised you had never heard of her.. She's definitely not all all country thank God, she has the most versatile angelic voice with more inflection than anyone I ever know and the greatest poet it just depends what you listen to. But please I know your ears will hear what I do when you listen to the song Painters from her 1st album Pieces of You listen to the haunting painful beautiful sounds. Omg her fingerpicking too!! Hear how she uses that beautiful nasal cavity, her instrument
Hello, how you doing?
Holy crap....I just listened to the Elton Britt original. You HAVE to do that one too.
I am a vocal teacher, and he just blew my mind. He holds an F#5 for 20+ seconds at the end...that's a soprano note. I can't even process what I've just heard...
I listened to it right after Fils analysis. I agree.
Yes it's a great example of head voice and not falsetto, probably one of the best I've seen for demonstrating the difference!
Love jewel have all her albums . Well most of them . Would love you to do joss stone .
That’s was really unique!
Thanks!
Hey jewel was my first concert!!! My mom won tickets when I was 12, her and Steven lynch killed it. After that day I lost my kid voice and my voice started to Crack.
That was amazing I saw a young girl on Americans got talent she was also amazing many thanks for your different voices
Lol! Was sitting outside listening to this. Dogs started barking.
I wasn't crazy about her intonation all the way through, but I enjoyed your explanation.
As much as her amazing yodeling dexterity, I was struck by how, in the midst of it, she was a) nailing pitches in her runs within a register and b) doing it a capella!
A true trubador,,,melted many hearts
In school in choir we were encouraged to use our hands in a similar way for sight reading with the solfege system. As notes go up and down you move your hand vertically to match, while making hand sign that marks intervals relative to your home note. (It’s the Do Re Mi song from the Sound of Music). We were also told to tilt our head forward and sing as if the sound was coming out through the top of our head to get us into upper registers with a clear tone.
Can’t believe you’d never heard of Jewel! I love her and how much emotion she puts into her performances. But I’ve never really listened to her yodeling, -thanks for the vid!
This analysis was so much fun! I'd never really listened to Jewel before, but I saw her on the videos where she was one of the judges for the Sing Off TV show when Home Free won. I realized then what a stellar musician she is.
Didn't Maria von Trapp teach Julie Andrews to yodel when they did The Sound of Music?
What is the show that she was a judge that you mentioned? Was it "i can see your voice" show?
Oh wow I love Jewel she's an American performer that used to play on the streets and live out of her car but in the 90's she came out with her album Pieces of Me and her song "who will save your soul" and I remember going out to buy her CD for my 25th bday 😊 I had no idea she did a country album because that's not quite my thing since I'm a Rocker Chick! ❤🤘 love you Fil!!! 💋
My Dad used to yodel. I don't think it would take you too long to master it Fil, you're almost there already.
Whether it's Jewel or Alpine yodelers, EVERY time I hear yodeling my mind bounces to "Hocus Pocus" by Focus! I can't stop it and I'm not sure I would want to. 😆 Thanks, Fil, this was fun, now I've got to listen to some crazy wonderful guys performing their 1993 hit! 🎶💥😲🤪🤘 oops...did I say 1993? Yikes, 1973 is more like it, guess I got a little too excited.🤭
Yodeling comes from the Celts, Nords, and Swiss.
Bluegrass and/or Mountain Music is a mixture of Celtic, Irish, Scottish, and Gospel Music.
Almost all of the people in the Deep South of the US are decendants of Scottish, Irish, English, Nord, and Eastern European in general.
Most are of Scottish and Irish decent.
So actually, yodeling comes from much closer to your neck of the woods...lol
Love your videos man.
You do a great job!
If you haven't done a video on it yet, you have to do a breakdown of Prince's Superbowl Halftime Show in the pouring rain.
There's a great documentary on the subject you could check out.
It is, without a doubt, THE BEST Superbowl Halftime Show Ever...
Bar None!!!
Would be great to see you cover that.
Much Love and Many Blessings To Ya Man. You do a great job!
Jewel has Opera background she has the most raw voice and beautiful Angelic sounds and you talk about them blocking off the breathing, they don't block it out in most of her albums because it is part of the song and you can hear how she is getting the notes through. Please listen to her first album and you can hear this. There are so many breaths and little sounds that Express sadness and sighing that makes it even more emotional. she truly is the most fantastic songwriter ans poet she even sings Latin she has gifted beyond belief and she is gifted with the nose and olfactory she's been given. She is a folk singer from a homestead in Alaska and was singing since she was a child with her father and mother although she does some country she is the most raw artist you will ever find I can go on and on she sings all different types of songs check out the song Painters and hear what she can do on album version.. her first album was mostly all live but from various places that she performed in bars and small venues. There is no cutting out anything there truly amazing even with her voice going slightly Out Of Tune here and there. Her other great skill is fingerpicking I'm a picker and she writes great rock slash blues songs. And I'm glad there's no Auto tuning on hers. The first four albums are genius genius and then she got a little country which I'm not a big fan of because she expresses her talents when she doesn't do that. I can't wait.
Enjoyed your Analysis I enjoy seeing yodeling mapped out where you see the notes they hit. It was cool. Chris Isaak “Wicked Games” I would love to hear your analysis.
Jewel is from Alaska her family has lived there for years and years they have a TV show called Alaska the last frontier she learned to yodel there from her father
This is definitely a Swiss version of yodeling. Americans have cowboy yodeling which is a little different with melody. My grandfather loved cowboy music from the 1950s and earlier and would yodel with it. You should see what the difference is between countries. I know there is a Scandinavian version called kulning.
Really fun analysis. Very surprised you're not familiar with her. She was huge in the 90s - not for country, but for pop. Her album Pieces of You was a staple for me, along with Alanis Morrissette and her album, Jagged Little Pill. Neither are metal, but definitely worth listening to. :) Yodeling is interesting. I had to go read up on it because I associate it more with Switzerland and a commercial here in the US for Ricola cough drops (lozenge, maybe, in British English?). I'd never seen this performance so I appreciate finding it here. Thanks, Fil.
Hello, how are you?
Fascinating, Fil. Any thoughts on doing an analysis of Delores O'riordon on the pitch monitor??
Can we talk about how amazing is her split vocal personality, aside yodeling? she goes from a deep, warm voice to almost a childlike one. And it's not jarring, it's beautiful. That's even better now than her first album (I'm old, ok?). Lovely voice.
In what song did she goes from deep voice to childlike one? I'd like to watch that in the full video of this concert that i found
lol.. Jewel's agilty.. I remember her from the 90's.
I would have never thought of her as a yodeller
Happy she still singing and what a voice and she also having fun on the stage.. still gorgeous too :D
This is actually how she started with her dad in Alaska!
Actually i thunk i can yodel now that hed slowed it down. Its off key like mine. But thanks G. You got me doing it too!
A yodeling dance vid next Jewel?
Kenny Roberts is the best yodeler I ever heard. His first record was on a Vogue picture disc in 1946 ("Out Where The West Winds Blow") when he was 18. He won the World Yodeling Championship at Madison Square Garden in the early 1960s. His 1953 Coral recording of "She Taught Me How To Yodel" is one of the finest examples of the style in existence.
First yodeling I heard was from Gene Autry back before the genre was labeled Country & Western. Think some called it "hillbilly" music. Seems the yodeling had been around for years before that, too. Some attribute it to German and Swiss immigrants in the eastern US.
Wow I loved that - I wish I could yodel!
