If you're new here, my name is Andrew Huang and I'm a musician who works with many genres and many instruments - and I've also made music with many things that aren't instruments like balloons, pants, water, and dentist equipment. For more info visit my website: andrewhuang.com
You can also stream and download my 40+ albums and EPs at andrewhuang.ban... or check out my other videos at / andrewhuang
Thanks for watching today and a big hug to you if you share this video with someone!
Tyler, the Creator said in his NPR tiny desk: "I can't sing. But I don't care, cos it feels good."
"Like a waaarrrm shower..."
@@yamen9718 "i guess"
Andrew: i dont like my voice, i dont think its good enough
Also andrew: *proceeds to give us one of his most legendary vocal takes of all time*
Clearly a case of imposter syndrome :D
But i totally get it
For guitars or synths or everything else you can just get whatever sound you want if you try hard or long enough but with vocals you sometimes just dont have a certain sounds and cant recreate it yourself and that feels bad honestly
Doesnt change how every persons voice is unique amazing and deserves to be heard
@@flower-fauna I believe you’re spot on. We as creatives have so many ideas for how we want to use our voice but when it comes down to it, our voice is distinct in all of its ranges and especially when you’re younger and don’t quite know your voice yet it’s hard to like it. Just takes years to write good songs that express your voice how you want. 😄
Jimmy Hendrix hated his voice too. It is fairly common.
Ya daaamn that falsetto
dude, i never heard him singing, that was soooo good
Andrew: *makes a video about hating his voice*
Also Andrew: *records the most beautiful vocal takes for said video*
He has a terrible voice according to him
@an_아 fr!
Pure truth, when I hear him sing I feel calmness and relief!
Honestly if he hates his voice idk what to think of mine 😂. But love the takeaway from this video.
I could only wish to sing like that 🥲😮
3:18 Ironically, you are combatting fear with fear: The fear of judgement, vs the fear of regret.
OMG that statement blew my mind you philosopher!!!
@@potassium_nitrateV same
BEAUTIFULLY SAID
Love the fear of regretting your life... and go for it
Well put 🫡
I feel all of this 1000 percent. Everything you've said in this I feel exactly the same about.
I plan on getting a deluge partly because of you
Same, except for the part about having millions of streams on Spotify
What about "I'm Andrew Huang"?
Most people do.
First thing I thought when I read this title... I feel it too
I was playing in a punk band and we're not good. People often told me that we suck right in my face. And after some time I found a reason for myself why we should keep playing even if we know that we are not the best band. I thought that maybe some kids in the crowd will think to themselves: "man this band sucks.. but they are on stage... Maybe I can do that too?.."
And maybe we can inspire someone to finally play some music.
punk died when punk bands started being good. every good punk band fucking sucks.
The whole appeal of punk is we all suck bet we’re gonna do it anyway
@@mabeylane7163 preach
That makes total sense. Thanks for sharing your thought!
"I too want to suck on stage"
Dude. "I don't like my voice", and then you rip out that awesome acoustic song with an absolute INCREDIBLE falsetto. The best thing with your singing is that it's YOUR voice, and no one could ever do it the way you do. Never stop, because it's beautiful. F the haters.
Younger people watching this are fortunate to have a role model such as you Andrew 🙏
Andrew: I'm a middle school voice teacher and choir director. Arguably of the age range when people are most at risk to stop singing due to self consciousness and thinking they're no good, thinking their voice is bad, etc. This topic is of the utmost importance to all singers and especially educators - thank you so much. I will be showing this video to my classes when school resumes next week. I also tweeted this video out a few minutes ago. I hope many of my colleagues see it and spread the message. Sing anyway 💪
What an amazing and rare attitude for a music educator to have. Thank you for what you do!!
Awesome, my friend. Keep inspiring the youth!
+1 on this. Middle School music teacher in Brooklyn, will be doing the same.
"People may say I can't sing, but no one can ever say I didn't sing."
-Florence Foster Jenkins
I’m reading her wiki right now and it’s hilarious. In a heartwarming way. I had never heard of her. Someone compared her to the Christians in the colosseums bru
You sounds good man
He sings better than her I'm sure. She was either tone deaf, not a true Soprano, or both!
I listen to people with almost terrible singing voices but the confidence and emotion in their music makes their voice sound beautiful seriously
You know it. Tru true
Awesome vid. Awesome song. Awesome awesome.
My dude starts out this video like "I hate my voice so do a lot of people i.e. my voice is bad," gets on the mic not 5 minutes later and has more sincerity and control than half of anything that makes Spotify's top 100. You've got a great voice dude.
Imagine hearing lake louise and not thinking Andrew has an amazing voice
Bruh
Bruh
Yep, I was thinking of Lake Louise.
My exact thought. LOVE the song Lake Louise!
Exactly
bruhhh
I will be adding this video to my warmup routines every time I’m about to record myself singing, because this is EXACTLY what I needed to hear. I can’t stress how important it is to hear someone speak with positivity about navigating the same waters that I’ve been lost in. Thank you!
Jeez dude, I hadn't heard your voice in a long time, I was astounded by how good you sounded when you started singing. With control like that, I honestly couldn't care less about your 'nasal' tone, it's just you. I love it
It's such a recent and unhealthy part of human existence: comparing ourselves to the best in the world. I'm trying to make music how most humans have: just making music without any worry about how we compare.
I relate strongly
THIS RIGHT HERE. It's way healthier to compare yourself to your past self. So you can be proud of each advance
We should stop comparing ourselves with others in every aspect, be it music, finance, talent, etc.
The moment external comparisons are allowed into the creative process is the moment you begin limiting yourself. Don't even compare to your past self. Be present.
I don't really like my singing voice for the most part and I definitely prefer to work with other vocalists. But I did find when my first child was born, just for me personally, it removed a lot of the apprehension I felt towards singing, just because babies don't care if you're in tune or technically proficient; you can see that connection just from the sound of your voice, and it doesn't matter if it's 'good.'
that's really wholesome :)
Love your stuff and the comment is very wholesome. Great to see you here
A lot of the "good"ness from singing comes from the engagement and emotion as well, so if you're feeling it often that could sound good to other people even if the technical bit might be lacking
Dude, I like your voice actually! Oreo song is forever ingrained in my brain thanks to it. Though it may not be what you would've wanna hear =)
yeeeeee
Yee yee
Yeee yeee yeee
Insane how far you’ve come since the diversity promotion days yee
Oh wait it's K-391 and no one noticed :(
Wow.. you're here!
"if I love my baby the same as I love this yall look out" *immediately throws the sock onsie on the floor*🤣🤣I'm dying lol
Andrew: I hate my voice
Also Andrew: * proceeds to sing beautifully *
I’m serious when I say this Andrew but I’ve never related to a video so hard. Thank you for putting something out like this, it really made me feel like I’m not alone here.
Same same, I related so hard I astral projected out of my body, and to hear it from as phenomenal a musician as Andrew really did something!
BUT! Just out of curiosity I checked if you had any music and stuff and after listening to some of your stuff, subscribed, and turned on notifications, DON'T STOP SINGING MY DUDE! I bet you're a lot better than you think! I really liked your cover of Being Human, and your cover of Tsuki no Akari sounded really cool! I can tell you really like composing and arranging stuff, and as long as you're having fun, keep making the mouth sounds and good luck dude!
@@planlessdan lol u astral projected
sameeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
I can't even articulate how useful this kind of raw honesty is.
Appreciate the idea of just accepting that you may not even like certain attributes about yourself, you don't HAVE to like them and celebrate them like you're in some Disney movie but you CAN accept that and push forward anyway.
Great video man keep trhiving andrew💖
I find it strange that you dislike your own singing voice; when I recorded my first *decent* single, which I sung as one of my characters, I deliberately formant shifted my voice to sound more like yours. That sweet, nasal tone was exactly what I was after.
Exactly how I feel about my voice. Much respect man!
omg hi adam hahaha
Tha man Adam Ivy
You know bro
This world is smaller than I thought!!
Huge youtube musician collab needs to hapoen soon 😭
Yep, I have a pretty nasally voice too
It's legitimately the nicest thing to hear someone likes your singing.
almost a year later and I still come back to this video just to listen to the song
Bruh he’s hitting notes like this and people saying that his voice sucks?! Y’all trippin y’all must have COVID too bc yall haters taste is gone.
Bro ik im like man i wish my voice sounded like that! Lol
I love your comment
Agree. I admit, I do find his speaking voice a bit taxing on the ears sometimes, probably because of the nasal tone that he mentioned in the video, but I've never commented on it, cause who cares? But I like his singing voice. I wish I had a singing voice like that.
I feel this, as well. I get not liking one's own voice, but I've never felt his voice was anything other than appropriate for his music. Additionally, I've shown his music to countless friends and family and had people specifically comment on how much they love his voice, or how good his voice is. Anyone who says such things like "OMG stop singing your voice sucks" can f*** right off.
@@mikalkrall 100%.
I had no idea that people disliked Andrew's voice because... I mean I thought it was common knowledge his voice is heavenly
WOAH WOAH WOAH!!! Let me get this perfectly straight: You comment something that is completely unrelated to the fact that I have two HAZARDOUSLY HOT girlfriends? Considering that I am the unprettiest RUclipsr worldwide, it is really incredible. Yet you did not mention it at all. I am VERY disappointed, dear l3le
@Naomi Isaac he’s a bot. I’ve seen his comments on hundreds of different videos.
@@AxxLAfriku wtf lmao
"And now, something completely different."
I know! I'm honestly shocked at how mean some of those comments were. I always thought he had a nice voice.
Errr, I don't know what they're on about. Your singing sounds beautiful, Andrew. ✨ People love to project their own fears and inhibitions onto other people. I try to remind myself of that as often as I can. On a side note, I thought the TLM 103 was the best in this setting too. Sounded gorge. 💖
Agreed
I love your voice. I listen to you sing or talk and it's just a pure pleasure.
I think my talking voice is bad - as if I was talking through a pillow, if you can imagine that. But I learned to accept it too and I know there are people who treat my voice as it was the most normal thing in the world! So this video is absolutely so worthwhile!
"If you quit when you suck, you'll suck forever"

It's so difficult to stay motivated when you can't help to compare your work to better, more tallented people. Thanks for the motivation man.
Also the mics are so good geez
"Some days, the fear won't go away. So I do it scared."
Thank you for sharing this perspective with us :)
I seriously wish I had it in me to do that.
Andrew: i hate my voice
Me listening to Lake Louise: yeah, ok andrew
I thoroughly enjoy you singing, Andrew. I also enjoy most everything else you do musically. You've done a lot for tons of folks out there who come to you to learn, share and most importantly enjoy music. Congrats on the kid, fammo!
Andrew Huang: I hate my voice
Andrew Huang:
If people heard him sing Lake Louise idk how they would say he has a bad voice
When Andrew said "if I love my baby who's on the way as much as I already love this cute thing, well look out" I was just started smiling by myself thinking how sweet and then he yeeted the baby and I jumped off my chair shocked
Not fair. I'm listening to your video at work in my earbuds. Podcast style. Got to your singing and you legit made me tear up. In my feelings. The vibes. 🥺🔥 I feel it. Hopefully someday I can get that good.
He does have a beautiful voice. It's sad he doesn't like his voice.
I don't like my voice, but I decided to record and post my first single on RUclips called Dearest, Do You Know?
I think we've all been there. You've finally wrote down all the lyrics about all the struggle and pain you've gone through the last years. You worked on the instrumental for weeks and it sounds incredible. Today is the day where you finally want to nail that vocals down and you're on fire. Take by take you give everything you possibly can. You add some EQ, compression, delay and reverb to make to vocal sit perfectly in the mix. You sit back, close you're eyes to enjoy the song in its full entirety and think: "WHAT THE FUCK I SOUND LIKE SHIT!"
To literally everyone out there that's afraid of what someone else will think: don't be. You are you, you are awesome, and don't let someone else that you know nothing about keep you from being the creative genius that you are, whatever that creativity may be.
Andrew Huang, hit the bong and sing a song, your voice does NOT sound wrong
@@unfamiliartunes well the occasional one here and there may be handy to get the creative juices flowing. As long as your not chowing down on meth crystals you should be alright, more or less.
no, he gotta hit that gourd
Not watched a huge amount of your videos, but when I have heard you sing I've always thought you had a really unique and sweet voice man. As someone who loves to sing, but have never liked his own voice (I can't even sing in key) this has really given me some things to think about man! Thanks! :D
"Yeah I hate my voice." *proceeds to flex on everyone with his voice*
"I hate my voice"
*sings like an angel at the end
Yes
Right I was blown away, the song was fire
Pure facts
People: You need to express yourself!
Also people: SEriously, stop singing..
Too often people who don't like when others express themselves are the same ones who get annoyed when they don't. Can't win even if trying to please
@@aiiiia9971 that’s the world but you gotta keep doin don’t ever stop doing what you love
Are we entirely sure that those are the same exact person? I hate it when "people" are treated like one giant voice that's being completely hypocritical, when in reality it's multiple separate individuals' slightly opposing oppinions.
@@isweartofuckinggod oh yeah man I understand, I was just trying to mess around
@@Joseph-hf6nn Sorry, yeah, I understand I was overthinking the joke a bit. XD
My point was meant to be: Don't let "them" frustrate you if "they" aren't even the same!
You don't like the sound of your voice, but then you give us... this absolutely beautiful recording!!!
Your voice is beautiful my guy.
I came here bc I was hating my voice ….but I love your voice… and you were expressing the same feelings as me…the way the mind works is crazy
"I didn't do the thing that I love because I was afraid what others would think about it" Yep. I needed to hear this video, big time.
Spends three and a half minutes talking about how awful his voice is - proceeds to sing absolutely beautiful
I have been a fan since the olden days of fishes driving tanks and robot pirates. I have watched your music grow and you along with it. You have produced and performed some of the most beautiful music I have ever heard, and I am completely enamored with every part of you, including your voice. Especially your voice. Both literally and figuratively. The world of music, and the world in general, is a better place for your existence in it.
I NEEDED THIS AND I LOVE YOU FOR THIS!! You have no idea how deep this hit me in my soul. This channel has helped so many upcoming artists and you have a place among the legends for that.
Andrew: I hate my voice.
Me: That's okay. I'll like your voice for you.
You just described the reason you're successful: Courage.
@@adirsab Absolutely.
Love what you do - I especially love that you haven't used your platform in a way that compromises your artistic integrity. Thanks for the candor and self acceptance.
This must be one of the best mic shoot-out video I've seen.
This is one of the bravest and most transcendental encouragements I’ve heard in Social Media. Thanks Andrew.
Hey Andrew.
Thank you. I was a voice teacher in another life, and the most important thing I would tell my students is exactly what you express here.
Singing feels good.
There are scientific studies that we can get into about the whys this is, but the basic notion of it is that singing, and your voice is just a basic part of who we are as humans.
Thank you for continuing to be brave and facing your fears, and for giving voice to those who silence themselves or are otherwise silenced by circumstances outside of their control.
I also think it's fairly universal for anyone who sings to dislike their own voice, but that doesn't make it bad. It's usually because it's so different to the one we acoustically hear.
Anyway, what a fun demo of the mics! As you say, it's hard to describe sound, but if I had to I'd argue that the neumann mics both have an almost effervescent quality to them that the SM doesn't have. There is just simply more complexity to the sound you get out of the neumann's. (And that's all I will say because a producer I am not. XD)
Thank you again for sharing this video. Thank you thank you thank you. As an educator, this is the kind of video I would share with my students and I hope many others find the value in it.
Period, this whole video is exactly what music is all about and not only music, life in general as well. Really great video, appreciate you speaking up for what really matters!
I seriously expected you to sound like a dog howling. Instead you sound like an angel! I just discovered you and just started playing around with making music (on my own) and you are such an inspiration and grand help. Thank you Andrew!
hates his voice
bad hearing
best musician on youtube
Kinda seeing why Beethoven was so big
@@NeelDhar omg we have a modular beethoven
this coudn't be more true
AMEN
Beethoven was deaf so there’s a pattern here🤔
This is new information to me. Had no idea people didn't like his voice. I've always thought it was amazing, what?
Wow yeah same
Singing is something I just recently started to experiment with keep doing you’re thing Andrew you’re killing it
Congrats on your baby! Don't stop singing, i think you sing better than you speak, and the few vocal parts i've heard i was blown away by. Don't quit!
That TLM103 sounds saucyyyyyyyyyyy
Lol, my ears are so exhausted I can't hear a difference between the 3!
It´s so AIRY jaja
Raw recording sounds good but highs are a bit to harsh for me. Some of those sibilances are cutting through too much
@@szatek16
that might also be caused by your audio output
even the most expensive speakers are never going to be perfect for every ear
I thought the 103 sounded the best for your voice on this song.
Me listening with the speaker on my phone: Yes, I totally can hear the difference between the mics.
This video just gives me the push to finally record my voice. Been struggling for decades with it.. thx man, I'm really inspired by your channel! Keep going on :)
Please release a fully produced version of this song! You’re voice, I’ve always loved it. And I would love a full version of this song
About the mics:
Did a little "blind test" where I looked at the screen only when I liked the sound, and it's definitely the TLM 103 for this song. Mic preference changes based on song and singer, but for this song and for your vocals, the mid dip removed some mud and made for a brighter mix that really worked here. Love it.
I agree with you!
Agreed! I was genuinely shocked when he said that the mic feeds were unprocessed. All three sound great, but the TLM 103 sounds mixed and mastered (to my ears at least). Insane.
I like it, it has more on the high end that prevents it from sounding muffled
Literally had no idea anyone didn't like your voice. I always remember that shot with Rob during one of the 1st of October videos where he's like "he's got such an amazing voice" to your engineer and everyone there is nodding vigorously. I have tried to sing recently and it's so hard. Well anyway this is just another message to say I think you have a great voice
Thank you so much for making this video! Musical theatre is my passion and I love singing more than anything, but I have an audition and a performance coming up and lately I've been completely paralyzed my my self doubt. Watching you and hearing your words and voice has made me feel so relieved, you've reminded me why I do what I do, and that I CAN do it. I really hope you have a wonderful day
Just saw this video and I have so much respect for you and your courage to do what you love and believe in. Your focus despite the haters and those who just do not have the balls to do what you do on your terms are just jealous. Thank you.
don't like my voice : ❌
love to sing : ✅
your words are inspiration
I feel related to this in every time I put a song out
after some time
I stop thinking so much and just do what I love 💗
Heres a "hey Andrew, you should really keep singing" to counterweight the opposition.
whatever you do, do NOT listen to the haters telling you to stop singing. they have no idea wtf they’re talking about honestly.
THIS WAS THE BEST VIDEO YOU EVER MADE! Fear is the biggest passion killer and it's always pushed aside and treated as the thing that should not be mentioned, but I think everyone needs to hear what you said because it's so true and truth holds more power than fear.
As a long time musician who has been trying to teach himself production the past few months, this video was exactly what I needed to see. I saw it while procrastinating working on my music, mostly because keeping the long term perspective is hard to hold on to when the short term is filled with music I am not yet proud of. I feel inspired to go push through my own doubt and to create the things I know I can eventually make. I so appreciate you being vulnerable about yourself in a hope to help others. Consider this person touched, moved, and inspired. Thank you Andrew.
Haters: "Stop singing!"
Me: "Dude... It's a recording. You have a stop button." 😕
Real talk 😂 haters come to your page to tell you stop something. Why come in the first place!
True true hahaha 😂
You continue to give gifts to the music community and the message in here is a gift!
You have a good voice. Some people will like it, some won't.
Don't listen to those people, we love your voice, it's so original and sweet
It's not really about other people but himself not liking his voice..
*pukes at your comment*
@@uku5252 It's about both. You could have got that by only looking at the thumbnail.
@@TheDoomBlader what I meant when I said it's not about other people is that other people's opinions about you shouldn't really matter all that much imo..
@@tophan5146 *drinks it*
My man! I love hearing your songs with vocals, they always fit right, and it's a good surprise when I'm expecting an instrumental and vocals pop in.
dude your vocal accuracy is insane. those with really beautiful timbre who can't accurately do runs are a much less complete package. and yes, it's a different sound that you produce, but not a bad one by any measure. i personally find it compelling on a lot of your tracks.
I love your songwriting and your vouice is perfectly fine. People just be grumpy cause they can't do what you do. You've inspired me for sure!
"Every voice has value"
I needed to hear this, been a fan of yours since way back when and absolutely love to see the evolution of your work and really enjoy hearing your work ethos and the way you approach your work, thank you for putting this out there
Just know your album "Level 5 Care" got me through the darkest times of my life man..
Your pitch is perfect on it's way, your musicianship is undeniable and your voice is your voice, unique, I'd say I remembered you and keep searching your channel because the first thing I remember is your voice, it is good, it's different and attracts people!
Its amazing that everyone goes through this. Ive always been told i have a great singing voice, and I know that technically i have my vocals down, but I have deleted every vocal ive ever recorded because I hate it... thanks for the encouragement, maybe I'll actually take it to heart 😂
Also on the mics, its hard to hear a hugr difference between the tlm 103 and the u 87 without studio headphones, but you can def hear the diff against the sm7b
Damn the SM7B feels almost lo-fi compare to the Neumann. Not shitting on the SM7B, but the Neumann are insane 😎
Is it? I couldn't hear much of a difference over studio monitors, and surely not such difference that any listener will give a shit about
Def a difference between the sm7b and the Neu's, but i really can't seperate the two Neu's
@@thegiantgaming7592 DEFINITELY a difference. I had to listen back at first but then it was genuinely very clear. :) Crisper, brighter and better suited to his voice.
Yeah. I love my SM7B, but the Neumanns are really something else. I didn’t think there would be that much of a noticeable difference especially with YT compression
Just listening on my AirPods right now and I was surprised at how huge the difference was in feeling, even when I wasn’t paying much attention. Maybe the average person won’t consciously notice it, but they will consider it to be much more professional in a way that subconsciously influences how they feel about the song.
My Vocal Production professor put up an announcement that most singers hate hearings themselves/hate their voice or feel awkward about it. You're not alone.
Some people simply don't realize how blessed they are. Your voice is incredible.
What a phenomenal song! I love all your work but I love this style in particular - the "seasons" albums, Level 5 Care, Water (from way back in the day), etc. I have always appreciated your emotion, expression, songwriting, and yes, your voice. Thank you for continuing to share it with all of us!
your voice is really good man! thanks for inspiring a new generation of singers.
andrew: i don't like my voice
Andrew 2 minutes later: * sings with the best voice i ever heard *
Me: writing this while crying
As someone who really really wants to score films, it's daunting how good professional composers are versus how inexperienced I am. This video really inspired me, so thanks a TON for that. Also, your voice is magnificent. And those people wasting their time telling you it sucks... they can go listen to someone else.
It was also hard not to imagine literal helicopters in her hair. That was a very amusing image.
Man the light in your room is absolutely outstanding. Looks like a major skylight in the roof
Hidden in this video is the best unboxing I've ever seen.
Your statement in the first few minutes of this really taps into my sentiments about making art in general. Thanks for a great video.
your doing great! I really enjoyed the video with you singing :)
Felt that
Not related to the actual topic of the video, but I just wanted say I absolutely love the lyrics in this song. The images it paints are so evocative (also, I thought your performance of it was beautiful)!
Thank you for sharing, Andrew. It was quite moving to hear you express your fears. As a small independent musician myself, I struggle immensely with sharing my music with a wider audience because I am terrified of what people would think of my voice. So to hear a talented producer/vocalist as yourself having the same fears, actively overcoming them and continue making his dreams a reality, is so inspiring. Keep on making what you desire Andrew and you'll be remembered for your vision. I hope I can one day be there as well, but I am working on it slowly. All the best!
