Thanks so much for all the love and support on this vid! Check out my new Music Video for "Adam & Steve" out now! ruclips.net/video/mViZtUHqDg8/видео.html
I'm sorry, but I can't help but be reminded of this one video I watched of this big roundtable discussion where about eight women all decided that men would be so much better off if they'd just act more like women.
@@fartersharter His/their. A genderfluid/envy can use two pronouns. Dorian binds and frequently refers to themselves as a "boy" and "man", especially in this video. Also, Dorian hearted the comment, and yet you're still out here trying to be an asshole.
The aesthetic is really pleasing, and the fact that the voice of the singer can sound sometimes really high pitched, and let's say feminine, and sometimes really low and ''manly'' is interesting and pleasing too. Well hot boys too. Damn.
I think a lot of it is auto-tune, but I know they included their genuine voice in there as well. I think the point is that since their ambiguous it's meant to give the impression of ambiguity. I love it honestly!
Are all the vocals done by Dorian? I listened to the album and the switch between feminine and masculine voices was very interesting and added a layer to an already amazing album
@@blakeseely2508 oh yeah, messing with the pitch and resonance of your voice like that is hard to do, but very possible, and so much fun. It's one of my favorite things about singing, messing with the gendered aspects of it.
kiaran willman That’s not what autotune is sweetie- It’s definitely pitching and heavy voice editing but not every form of vocal editing is always autotune
Dorian, Thank you for this song! As a straight cis man I am happy that you created such a wonderful piece of art. Please do the world a favor and continue doing this. I have depression and I have an identity crisis. I love putting glitter on my face, I love using women’s perfume, I love dressing feminine and I love to be myself. I was ashamed to be who I am but this song helps me be me
At some point someone just made up that certain things were for A or B and people went along with it. Please enjoy whatever you want to enjoy. I’m sure you rock your lewks and smell nice while you do it.
Historically, men wore makeup and dresses way before women did. Nothing wrong with having fun, that's what life is for, don't let anyone tell you otherwise 👍🏻
Hope you are able to be who are and who you want to be and dont be sad about the fact that people no appreciating you. We are there. Me a stranger on the internet is there for you. So keep being you. Love ya💖💖💖💖
This entire album is incredible! I went into it going "Well, this isn't my genre, but I wanna see what's going on", and was immediately completely confused. An hour later though, it was all "Daddy liiiiiiiike!" This song is particularly powerful to me, as a cis man who has never been a big tough masculine bro. I really love rejections of toxic masculinity, and embracing true strength in manhood, so all of the messaging here is just wonderful to see. Thank you Dorian!
big same here. i was always a small skinny guy, and it took me some years to overcome the insecurity of not being a big strong dude. but i still feel the need to be emotionally tough, and that suuuuuuucks. just ended today a 2.5 years relationship that could have worked if i were able to fucking open up. now i'm crying and watching this LOL at least i'm crying, that's progress thank you Dorian
So, I just recently started performing in drag, and I've gained a reputation for being the "Androgynous" drag king. So one of the queens turned me onto your music and I'm officially obsessed and I will absolutely be performing to this song the next chance I get
@@m.g.4060 I'm just a baby King so I haven't really fully honed my craft lol, but essentially I put together a look, lip sync to a song, and try to entertain the audience with my limited dancing skills and barely masked social anxiety.
@Anthony Lopez Don't worry, I got you. Vibrato (Italian, from past participle of "vibrare", to vibrate) is a musical effect consisting of a regular, pulsating change of pitch. It is used to add expression to vocal and instrumental music. Vibrato is typically characterised in terms of two factors: the amount of pitch variation ("extent of vibrato") and the speed with which the pitch is varied ("rate of vibrato"). In singing it can occur spontaneously through variations in the larynx. The vibrato of a string instrument and wind instrument is an imitation of that vocal function. Dorian used a very sublte vibrato at 2:22 🐐
im a trans man and honestly dorian's music has inspired me to be way more comfortable with my gender and creating the content i want to with the aesthetic i love
This is what I'm trying to do with my singing. Widen my range to the point that I can work with both a "manly" lower range and a "feminine" higher range, which has been a struggle with my soprano voice, but the times I've felt most like myself are when I go from a high belting to gravely low notes. It feels powerful. That's one of the few times I have no doubts in my mind about my gender. I just found your music, but it seems like it might be just what I need. Thanks my fellow enby.
What do you think of Sam Smith? They're probably the most famous non-binary person/person who uses they/them. I've been wondering what other non-binary people think of them.
i've just heard of dorian so i've been watching their mvs all night and i've noticed that smashing glass objects on their head seems to be a theme in a lot of these videos.....anyway i'm absolutely obsessed!
I’ve never felt this alive. Dorian’s songs have opened up a place in my heart that’s always been unlocked, this sense of surging confidence bursting out of me. That it’s validated to be neither masculine or feminine but to be both.
You don’t gotta be the biggest artist out there to make a music video that is constantly visually and thematically stunning like this one I’m loving this. More plz
Oh my God, I want this song to blow up so badly. This is the kind of pop we need but been lacking in for a long time. Creative and progressive! This is seriously some of the best music to have come out of this entire decade, imo. Bravo, Dorian! I'm so proud of you!
I've always identified as a straight man, and I love that my wife and I can have a conversation about how attractive Dorian Electra is. Got us talking about topics of gender identity and sexual orientation in a way we hadn't overtly discussed before, and we were people who considered ourselves woke. If Dorian and their fans can get us talking about this stuff, they're doing a lot of things right (beyond making awesome songs and videos).
I've never in my life felt proud of being transmasc and androgynous/nb. it always felt like I was doing it wrong or I was in some in-between point perpetually stuck in motion. it means so much to me to see another person who I can relate to, whose aesthetic I can look up to. thanks so much for everything Dorian
@@DORIANELECTRA The vocal range here from "masculine" to "feminine" is the most intriguing and impressive thing I've heard in a long time. You are very excellent to listen to! A genuine performer. Not to mention you are a great dancer. Truly embracing everything with confidence and without doubt. Also, your aesthetic is a visually spectacular mind-fuck. I love the edgy 80's sound combined with everything. Do not stop! Ever. This needs to be recognized, respected, accepted, and appreciated.
As a white cis man I haven't really had anything to feel empowered by, but this song makes me feel good about my masculinty in a whole new way it's amazing.

(soften it up) Are you tough enough to open up? (toughen it up) Man to man You gotta let me in
I've always been straight. There's never really been much doubt of that in my head. But let's be real, most straight guys are caught up in a storm of toxic masculinity (or better yet, *limiting* masculinity) and this song has a list of great things to say to everyone a mile long. From the very first line, this is gold. The idea that you have to be tough and strong to show emotion and talk about your feelings is something most guys don't understand... or at least they didn't when I had a social life. Maybe things are changing. Maybe this is part of the reason why. Dorian, you rock in a way the world hasn't seen before. You're a hero.
gotta say i really like the message of this song. violence won't solve anything, and men are often not allowed to show their emotions. just be sincere. be honest. be vulnerable. talk it out with people you trust.
My manager showed me them during a floor move & I instantly fell in love. The music is just wow & the music videos with the visuals and the colors are so eye pleasing 😍

Man to man (man to man), hand to hand (hand to hand)
One on one (one on one), friend to friend (friend to friend)
Are you man enough to soften up? (soften up)
Are you tough enough to open up? (brave enough, open up)
Man to man
You gotta let me in
Don't beat around the bush
Don't talk behind my back
Quit acting cowardly
Don't launch a sneak attack
Just sit right here in the daylight
And we can handle the stress alright
Just take my hand, we can settle this man to man
Man to man (man to man), hand to hand (hand to hand)
One on one (one on one), friend to friend (friend to friend)
Are you man enough to soften up? (soften up)
Are you tough enough to open up? (brave enough, open up)
Man to man
You gotta let me in
So you want to play rough in the parking lot (man to man)
See you acting tough, but I know you're not (hand to hand)
We can take it outside, scuff up in the streetlights (one on one)
I just really wanna fight with you (friend to friend)
Are you man enough to soften up? (soften it up)
Are you tough enough to open up? (toughen it up)
Man to man
You gotta let me in

In love with how you fit the word "scuffle" into a song. Not many people say it, let alone make it work in a song.
Amazing choreography, amazing costumes, amazing lighting, amazing cinematography, amazing lyrics, amazing song ♥️
I've always been straight. There's never really been much doubt of that in my head. But let's be real, most straight guys are caught up in a storm of toxic masculinity (or better yet, *limiting* masculinity) and this song has a list of great things to say to everyone a mile long. From the very first line, this is gold. The idea that you have to be tough and strong to show emotion and talk about your feelings is something most guys don't understand... or at least they didn't when I had a social life. Maybe things are changing. Maybe this is part of the reason why. Dorian, you rock in a way the world hasn't seen before. You're a hero.
Legit one of the greatest videos and songs of ALL TIME
Spotify randomly played this song and i immediately fell in love, it's so good! And the video is so great too! You're awesome!
Thanks!!!
Oh my gosh same! Spotify suggested it to me and I can’t tell you how many times I’ve listened to it
Upset I'm just now finding this song but wow so happy I did.
better late than never :D
I'm literally crying Dorian is the most amazing and inspiring human to ever live and I love them with every inch if my heart
gotta say i really like the message of this song. violence won't solve anything, and men are often not allowed to show their emotions. just be sincere. be honest. be vulnerable. talk it out with people you trust.
The way you switch between vocal ranges is 👌👌👌 you are a nonbinary ICON
My manager showed me them during a floor move & I instantly fell in love. The music is just wow & the music videos with the visuals and the colors are so eye pleasing 😍
WHY THIS IS SO UNDERRATED, EVERYONE NEEDS TO WATCH IT
