ABOUT…
I am Rebecca and I am one heck of a passionate vocal coach/singer/songwriter/impressionist/health/fitness/self- improvement/anything that makes me smile!! I love anything vocal/singing related and geek out on it every day. I want to motivate and inspire others to follow their dreams…corny? Well maybe but it’s true. So what’s motivating me?? I had a huge tumour removed summer 2017 and my ovaries and fallopian tubes. The tumour was the size of a 20 week baby!! However, despite not being able to walk for a couple of weeks, and feeling generally awful…. It has made me create and do what I love! It wasn’t an easy time but I won’t let fear dictate my life. I didn’t think ‘why me’, there are plenty of horrific issues people have to deal with…it’s not always smooth sailing. It’s true when you hear, ‘Life is short’, the crazy thing is, I am glad it happened…I appreciate life even more and practice gratitude everyday…It’s so easy to get caught up with the little things…and I do sometimes, but look at the bigger picture, will it matter in a year or two…?
Also thank you for all your support. It means a lot.

Rebecca - I cant wait to watch you react to “Devin Townsend - Why?!” It’s his successful attempt at operatic broadway. It’s divine. Love your reactions. Cheers from California!
Was going to suggest exactly this track from Empath....awesome selection 👏👏👍
sj D - Hopefully she sees this and does it. She gets so many requests though :’(
I recommended it the day the album released. :) She hearted it.
Except it seems that RVA always does live versions, and there are only audience cam versions of it so far. (Which are, of course, wicked.)
Definitely she should react to Why. Also Death of Music would be fascinating to see her take.
@@Brandon-zn8rf good call there
Funeral, Bastard, Death of Music trip play. If no reaction then just listen by yourself. Enjoy!
Can’t forget Thing Beyond Things
Yes please
Devin Townsend performing "The Death of Music" at the Royal Albert Hall. It's the most powerful vocal performance I've ever seen.
Agreed. She NEEDS to experience that.
Definitely. He himself got goosebumps in the finale of the song.
Wat.... It's weaker than the album version, for one. He is too worn out for a clean delivery of it, one can tell he's "fighting". I won't even get into other songs of his, that's more for the usual hypers who always mention the same and don't even care for anything else.
@@aliens4143 you may be right, but we can't all be cool like you.
For my money the Plovdiv version is much better.
I wish he could have had Anneke van Giersbergen with him on this song/ tour, she is an awesome singer as well :)
the best
Shes shit!!
Yeah, I can't understand why we never see her in singing react videos, because she's amazingly talented, and has a very distinctive voice, very suitable for heavy music.
@@educostanzo plus she has a wide range of different styles
@@KiraHunter2310 Do u mean shes THE shit or like actual shit, crap, aweful?
Higher is a painting in music, cinematic in scope and with a just incredible crescendo. One of Devins best in my opinion.
It's not singing, but I HIGHLY recommend his podcast series that he's been recording at home. It's here on RUclips on his official channel (part of his "Quarantine Project" playlist). In each installment, he tells the story behind one of his albums, going in chronological order. His storytelling is honestly as good as his singing and screaming. He gives fascinating, reflective insights into his unique creative processes. It's fantastic.
Oo I didn't know that! I gotta keep up with this guy lol
Its so weird ... I could listen to this guy talk for days with his story and wisdom. Legendary!!
So good tip!
It’s amazing how he can just shift gears from pitch perfect, operatic singing to a full on, war emergency power metal scream, and back, like throwing a switch. Its very impressive. I think Rebecca is getting to be quite the fan too ❤️
Devin sure is one of those artist that takes a lot out of you listening to. Such a journey not only in musically also spiritually. Ty for this reaction, I love how you react and your face and body really feels the music, so genuine.
Truth.
"Its lots of songs in one, the time signatures are changing, Its like a story"
Welcome to prog
Lol, I was about to write this exact same comment... "Oh it's a new song" - No, thats prog haha
Haha, exactly. That’s why we love it!
So many great bands are prog. As much as I love Pantera. Prog Metal is so interesting.
I'm so happy to see you do more Hevy Devy. You really show what we all feel when listening to him.
"Why" off the new album. Could our Devy make it as a tenor?
The performance at Bush Hall, it's awesome :)
@@timmie2k3 its been really entertaining watching him figure out literally live how he is going to make this new album work live 😄
devin townsend - Grace
devin townsend - Stormbending
Listen to those songs if you want to cry
Have you heard Failure? I tear up everytime, not gunna lie
Devin Townsend is fucking amazing.
Anneke van Giersbergen that has sung with Devin Townsend on tour and collaborated on several of his albums has an amazing voice. It's so beautiful in concert. I can recommend just checking out some of the vids she is on. Just for fun on your own time sorta thing. Such a beautiful voice.
Awesome! I love your Devin Townsend reactions :).
I can’t thank you enough Rebecca. I had somehow missed Devin until you did your first video with him. Now I’ve listened to his entire catalog at least a couple times. I love his music and I love you for introducing me to it. I hope you’re having a wonderful day.
Not calling you a liar or anything, but his catalog is 25+ albums. Would be a remarkable feat to listen to them all multiple times. But if indeed you have, well played sir. He is truly in a league of his own with his talent and versatility.
Devin Townsend is a force of nature. You have quite a bit of that force yourself there Rebecca! Thank you for your videos. 😊❤️
I always love your Devy reactions. They are spot on. And he is one of my fave musicians. Keep up the good work.
Such powerful lyrics.
FYI: I was the one that added the lyrics to this video.
You're welcome. LOL.
Love Dev and love your reactions.
Good to see some love for Ryan van Poederooyen, the drummer that often works with Devin Townsend. He makes tricky technical stuff seem so effortless.
Devin Townsend has done a lot to turn the image of Heavy Metal on its head. He likes to prove that Metal can be uplifting rather than dark all the time.
Blind Guardian - The Last Candle (Imaginations through the Looking Glass)
Hansi's vocals are insanely powerful
Thank's Coach! Now this is my cup of tea. Great Choice.Excellent, party time...😀
or a glass of wine :-) or a container filled with some divine beverage...I didn´t expect this song to be requested so soon
Devin is such a magnificent human being that we really don't deserve. I'm so happy that you did a video for this song!
The finale to Higher is so exquisite, particularly at this performance it brings tears to my eyes. I would recommend trying something completely different by Devy, I recommend "Ih-Ah" from "The Retinal Circus", you get Devy with a softer smoother tone and Anneke in unison melting your heart with a stunning rendition of a song which I only thought was "meh" when I heard the studio version.
Hi Rebecca great to see you reacting to Devin again. I love your reaction to him. 😊
Your next Devin reaction should be the funeral, bastard, the death of music video from royal Albert hall. Its a bit long, but it is a masterpiece. 👌
Absolutely the Funeral, Bastard, The Death of Music trio.
Better from Ocean Machine Live Blu Ray Plovdiv
Yes, THIS - I think the RAH version is better myself, and there's a single youtube video with all 3 in somewhere.
YASSSSSS
I'd love seeing you react to any Devin song where he sings a duet with Anneke van Giersbergen!
Entertaining and enlightening video as always. x
Try Diana Ankudinova - Human She's opposite side of Dimash ;)
i am always impressed on how you grab onto not only the vocal but the instrumental nuances..you are a very keen flower indeed.
and here's my appreciation for you. thank you for existing and being a constant source of happiness, light and positivity in my life. you are so wonderful. i love you
React to LEPROUS - Slave (Live At Rockefeller Music Hall) you'll love it.
Or rewind! Love that song! :)
React to “feather” by Devin townsend. Actually no, listen to all of Devin Townsend. 🤘🏽
"It's like a book within itself." Yep, exactly! He's telling a story that's going through stages. You can hear it if you follow the lyrics, too. The music and the lyrics are playing off each other.
I love this song. Starts off so beautiful and gets heavier as it goes. The choir here is great but I miss Anneke on this one.
You should listen to Devin's song "The Death of Music" (Live at the Royal Albert Hall). One of the best vocal performances from him I've seen.
A special, special piece of music by a special, special musician. You also might Ki from By A Thread Live, that is pretty beautiful as well
you should react to Devin Townsend - Stormbending, it's a beautiful song.
I also love Failure off the same record.
I’d love to see her react to Mikael Åkerfeldt’s vocals. He’s another of metal’s most beautiful voices.
Yes! She needs to see them (Opeth) perform “Ghost of Perdition” live from Red Rocks.
yes!
He doesn't just do metal, try Devin Townsend: Feather - By a Thread. A full acoustic performance no electric guitar, soft vocals through out. Everyone keeps reacting just his metal stuff.
Automatic like for Suki!
Please do “the death of music” by devin live
Highly recommend "In My Dreams With You" by Steve Vai where Devin was the singer, a slightly different style. :)
I just love sex and religion.. album..
Love Steve Vai. But Devin is a beast on that album..
Only slightly... and totally agree
I’m a big Steve Vai fan, and I didn’t follow Townsend after Vai. But now that I’m going down the rabbit hole of his music, I’m starting to wonder if Steve doesn’t owe some of his musical elements to this guy...
I miss live music so much. Can’t wait to see you again Devin!!!
Still one of the best reactions on the sum of the first 25 years of Devins music and performance quality.🤘🎶🖖
What's amazing is, I remember him saying in an interview once that he has never taken a vocal lesson before. He gets the sounds he does by "sheer force of will" and just stumbled upon a technique that works for him.
I like how you can make something like the aggressive drumming sound cute haha. Love your personality, new subscriber ♥️
Alter Bridge: "Words Darker Than Their Wings" Live At The Royal Albert Hall pls!
I keep asking - and keep getting ignored so once again....PLEASE go back in time to Devins band Strapping Young Lad (SYL) and listen / react to DETOX
100% but to get the full idea of the song and the use of his voice as well as all the musical parts and movements of it, please react with the lyrics up. It will make so much more sense knowing what has saying.
Yes!! When he had the sexiest hair in music !!
@@cirith100 no argument from me my friend - we just need RVA on board now!
but PLEASE do the version on retinal circus :) as she seems to do live shows
I was in Manchester for this tour and it BLEW MY MIND
I implore you to check out dutch singer anneke Van Giersbergen who is a vocalist for devin on his projects. Shes amazing , and their voices compliment each other incredibly well. Shes a star in her own right , with band and solo albums and now with metal band VUUR. She has even duet with fellow dutch sensation Floor Jansen. A 30 year career and massively underrated.
Why? from the Empath album - apparently they're making a video for its release...
I only watch your metal/rock videos, and I'm shocked every time that you somehow manage to get even more stunning inbetween videos.
Funeral, Bastard and The Death of Music Live at The Royal Albert Hall. Pleaaaaseee!!!
I strongly recommend listening to "Satellites" by Periphery, a progressive metal band with an incredible vocalist named Spencer Sotelo. It's an absolute tour de force, and contains one of the highest notes I've ever heard a male singer hit, utterly flawlessly. Cannot recommend enough. Love your reactions, hope you're well
He's always got that wall of sound going that's so effective.
He has collaborated in various songs with an EXTRAORDINARY singer called Anneke van Giersbergen. I would recommend you to react to “Ih Ah!” by them or to “Hyperdrive” if you’ll like something more heavy.
Also as a fact, Anneke has an extense career in bands like The Gathering, Agua de Annique, The Gentle Storm and currently in a band called Vuur, also she has solo releases and has collaborated with another bands, like Ayreon, Within Temptation, Moonspell, Amorphis and so on.
Oh, pleeaasssee react to Leprous - Contaminate me (live at the Rockefeller Center ft. Ihsahn). The two vocalists combine the most epic Black Metal Screams (Ihsahn) with ethereal, almost Radiohead/Muse-Style pop vocals Einar. The Live Performance is insane!
Those are real singer and she is real singer coach. But more than that she is so bella, hermosa, so cute all the reaction when she hear or see she make reaction that she look so cute OMG thanks x your videos Rebecca.
You made my day Rebecca 💜... Devy is by far my favorite musician.
You wonderful, quirky, eccentric beaut - thanks for picking up my Friday afternoon!! Soooo many more that you need to do - Demons & Wizards - Fiddler on the Green; Blind Guardian Nightfall (live - Imaginations through the looking glass concert); Skid Row - Wasted Time; LOST HORIZON - HIGHLANDER (THE ONE) (plss!!) and a ton others! Keep them coming!
You really need to make a t-shirt that says "Absolutely Beautiful"
I'd buy it 👌
Oh Ancient Roman Theater in my home town Plovdiv. I was there that night. It was a great show. That song is from first part when they play with Plovdiv's philharmonic orchestra and chorus. In the second part of the concert they play whole Ocean Machine album. Thanks :)
I'll be honest, I've only watched you react to Devin Townsend because I enjoy watching Devin open the floodgates and drowning people in so many emotions during each song.
Devin Townsend is so unique in that his variety of metal??? dare I even call it that because Devin can't be so easily typed brings a certain happiness.
"Where are you going to take me now?"
I thought the answer to that was pretty evident Rebecca!!
Higher - of course!!!!
It's just the strength of it and the dexterity and even constitution required to express the intelligence, wisdom and charisma of the music.
Just saw his show in Tucson...OMG it was legen... wait for it...DARY!!!! have got to find another venue close by to see another show. No kidding people, if you ever have an outside chance of seeing one of his shows, do it!!!!
One word for this song,perfection!
Rebecca darling. You simply take my breath away. Your lovely energy, combined with your physical beauty and musical awareness, pull me into every reaction you do. You're such a gem. Thank you for doing what you do. : )
There's a song called ''Why'' off of Devin's 2019 album, in which he actually goes almost full operatic, you should do a react video for it, it would be so cool.
Rebecca, you HAVE to hear Devin Townsend’s Stormbending. His highs are unbelievable!!!!! It’s such a beautiful song, it’s what turned me on to his music. Seriously, check it out!
Grace from The Retinal Circus. An uplifting message as well as showing off Anneke's pipes yet again. As well as Why. He's got a link to the album version on his YT.
I was at this concert, one of the best I've ever been to
That's what I like about your videos Rebecca, obviously it's mainly about the vocals as youre a vocal coach, but I always enjoy listening to your comments about the music and musicality as well...keep it up!...especially the high notes! :-)
Thanks so much 💜
I love watching you watch Devin...
FABIO LIONE IS A MUST
Rhapsody of fire - Lamento eroico at wacken 2011
Outstanding
Please do more Devin Townsend reactions. These are the best.
Death of music! Best vocal performance
Hey! Noticed you never reacted to Brandon Boyd in Incubus. Love his voice!
Love that song.. This song has a different meaning for me.
You look extra beautiful today. Great insight and vocal critique. Devy Grace live from the Retinal Circus is amazing with Anneeka and Dey both intertwine in another epic song
Goosebumpcity.com - I'm always awash in goosebumps at the beginning and by the time he yells "life is beautiful!" I'm weeping. And to think Empath came after this .... Higher is brilliant but Empath takes it above and beyond
You're right, conducer's hair is quite epic!
By the way, please don't forget Anneke Van Giersbergen w/ The Gathering's "Eleanor" or "Strange Machines" at pinkpop 1996. She joined the band a year before and the very first metal album sang by a women was then released a year after, and Mandylion is simply a miracle. It opened the gates of a whole new genre in metal, directly inspired bands like Lacuna Coil, Nightwish for sure, After Forever, Epica etc... Anneke was young and already outstanding, but still would progress a lot. Yet I think it would be perfect to begin with her beginning! Then later I'll recommend "Travel" live from A Sound Relief dvd which is probably their most beautiful song and mesmerizing performance.
You always blush when you hear Devy!
Devin Townsend has just the perfect voice for the orchestra and choir accompaniment. They amp his performance up from amazing to absolutely Homeric!
Of course, orchestra and choir does that for almost anyone, but only the best get that kind of treatment and he definitely deserves it.
You should get an orchestra and choir too. Can you just imagine? You'd have to change your name to Madame Rrrradiance or something and it would be perfectly sublime!
I was there that night, best show ever!
Great Reaction Rebecca 😃 have a wonderful day 😄👍
NeObliviscaris: Eyrie.
Please!!!!!
Two different vocalists btw.
"The Death of Music" never ever do this song unless you ready to cry in front of your many fans.... I'm 42 and this man make me cry so hard i produce what we call snot bubbles...
Thank you for continuing to look at the less obvious stuff X
Rebecca, I love your reactions to Devin Townsend! I am a big fan of his and now a big fan of yours. It really touched me when you became emotional during his performances.....enjoy!
imagine being at that concert, THAT WOULD BE A DREAM COME TRUE
I am a Dimash fan but the moment I realized that you do reactions to Devin was like a winning on the lottery cuz I mesmerized his concerts I attended
You know this guy is my favorite
You are like a ray of sunshine and I enjoy watching your reaction videos.
My favorite! The progression of this song is out of this world!
You MUST do DTP’s March of the Poozers live...ridiculous. Well done on this video once again!
Check out Stormbending or Death of music. This show was amazing!
His voice is just magic! How you say it his range is amazing. Devin keeps on lurking on the side of Dream Theater at times. Well in a matter of pure voice performance, he would fit in any way.(on a side note you look terrific Rebecca).
I love you Rebecca your responses are just so genuine.You have a loyal supporter.💖💖🖤
Everything Devin does goes exactly where you don't expect
