1:22 "I can tell, I can feel, _you_ _are_ *_love,_* _you_ _are_ *_real..."_* Whoa, that line gripped my heart. It felt so authentic, so real, like an outburst of realization of his love... raw emotion. I've never heard this song before, but you present it exquisitely. Great job!
i have never genuinely cried while listening to a piece. this brought me to tears while singing along with the bass part. truly an amazing performance.
RU-vid legit said to me tonight: "Yo fam you need to be serenaded before bed." This arrangement works great as a lullaby, but I can also imagine this in a Square Enix game
idk why everyone seems like they suddenly have a degree in music and have the grounds to offer criticism, even as a voice major myself that was a stellar tune. Great work homie edit: I was here very early and saw weird backhanded comments but i don't anymore. Apologies! but great cover
That's such a weird statement, why do you now need a degree in something to criticize music? Out of all the things you could say that for, music is about as low on the argument to authority list as you can get, and this is coming from a guy who majors in music. We don't really have legs to stand on with that kind of hilarious elitism, our degrees don't even do anything for us in our own industry lmao
@@Ace-in8qr you don't need a degree. but if i didn't play piano and someone posted a video of them playing piano, i probably wouldn't tell them how to play piano. not trying to be elitist, just logical. but it seems like since i posted this a lot of the weirdly critical comments have been filtered out by support
@@michaellampson7085 I was wondering about that, I scrolled through and couldn't find anything other than "too many effects". I see a lot of stuff like I posted so I assumed. My apologies.
I mean, I got a bachelor's and a master's in music. I think it sounds absolutely lovely. However, you don't need a degree to criticize. If you don't know how to cook spaghetti, you can still say whether or not it tastes good.
mate, i did the same thing just now, tbh i feel this guy got tim wauricks audio, tuned it up slightly and then filmed himself not singing it.i say this because its far to similar for a seperate singer, also the faces he pulled while singing was odd. i mean credit to him if its real but im not bying it, ya know what i mean
@@baxterferguson2532 Were you looking for the differences? Some of them show that this rendition is distinct from Tim Waurick's. At 2:28, he begins the final "love" phrase, and while the top voice sustains the word "love", at 2:34, the lower three voices clearly take a breath and restate the words "your love" again, to deliver the penultimate and ultimate chords of the piece. Meanwhile, in the version by @TimWaurickMusic, he only sings the word "love" once, and does not restate it. It's one continuous word. This clearly makes the version by @shawnboomermusic definitively distinct from @TimWaurickMusic.
getting into barbershop stuff (just spectating) and I LOVE how consistently majestic your voice is, especially in the higher voicings, you perfectly avoid that nasaly redundant kinda timbre I’ve had make me less enjoy many otherwise great barbershop performances. Beautiful
I kinda like your version more than Tim’s. I think some chords blend better here, maybe it’s just subtle imperfection creating a pleasant wobbling chorus effect? Beautiful!
Great rendition of the piece; I love the harmonies of this song, and you're nailing them! The one thing I just don't understand about this song/arrangement is the dissonance on "peace" in the phrase "I'm at peace in the web of your love". The chord at that point suggests anything BUT peace, as the Bari and Bass notes are in conflict.
Absolutely stunningly beautiful! One question - how do you manage to stay so perfectly on time with your multitracking, through all those tempo changes and fermatas? Whenever I'm multitracking, I need to stick to a metronome, which clearly wouldn't work here, and yet all of your entrances and note changes are perfectly synchronised between the voices!
I have tried starting with a video "conductor" track to try to keep the parts together. That has helped, but I suspect you need to get a firm sense of how you want the rubato to work, and then be able to stick to that - much like you would need if performing live with a group. (A good audio engineer doesn't hurt, either.)
@@oldguydoesstuff120 I've been pondering that! I wasn't able to figure out for myself whether that would actually work. One potential issue I imagine there might be is that the conductor isn't able to react to the musicians? I'm used to playing mainly with groups without a conductor, where the musicians instead react to one another, which is obviously not possible when multitracking, and without visual cues. I'll try the conductor trick, thanks!
I normally have a click track or myself playing an instrument of the part in my ear to help me out. It takes awhile due to recording the song twice, but I’m still learning with everything song.
@tbiggy03 Maybe take some English lessons instead? ^”Coming from a classical pianist who hasn’t taken voice lessons” is not a sentence, genius.🙄🤡🤦♂️💩🤷♂️
This song does not work well in 4 part harmony. You have a lovely voice. I know this is a slow song but this almost like slow motion. Maybe it gets better but I don't have half an hour to wait for the next verse.
