First Reaction To Vanessa Amarosi - Natural Woman | Vocalist From The UK Reacts 

😅😅, yes!

Check out Vanessa I “PERFECT”

That's not the kind of nervous I meant. You can be the most accomplished singer in the world and still be apprehensive about certain songs

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel in Vanessa’s case, she does it to hem herself in, not because of nerves. This performance doesn’t even hit her range edges. She’s otherworldly….

It's not a range issue though. Sorry, I know its really hard to take when someone notices something less than complimentary (even though everything else about what I said was complimentary) about an artist you love. But no artist is infallible. There were runs that didn't land and her phrasing was rushed in places. As I say, if you're not a trained Vocalist you're probably not going to pick up on these things. But I am a trained Vocalist and I'm giving my critique from that perspective. I even checked with some of my mentors before posting this to make sure I wasn't being overly critical and they confirmed what I was talking about

You don't know shit moron, shut up and get back in your cave moron.@@TheCharlieSmithChannel

Yes , I’m not sure nervous is the right word , she opened the 2000 Olympics to an audience of billions, at 19 years of age 😮

@@michaelhill9254 Yes, yes she did... Happy New Year Michael - all the best to you and yours !

Written by John Gillard and Trevor White. Cheers!

@@christopheryochum3602 The (JC Superstar) Trevor White? Obviously somebody gave me the wrong information on that one. Thanks

@@mssuziquzi Hi! Doesn't really matter. :) I just enjoyed reading your comment and got curious when I found out she actually IS a songwriter in addition to being a fabulous singer. Usually someone who sings like that doesn't have to be writer, she's that good. I gave Charlie the link for the Sydney performance, so maybe he'll give that one a go. That performance blew me away.

💯 That last breath she sings for like 26seconds after, bloody unbelievable!

100% ❤

This twat has no clue about actual music.... he's just trying to build a channel with 'supposed knowledge' about singing... haven't seen any evidence so far...

I studied vocals for 3 years. My technical development teacher was the same guy that trained George Michael and Elton John. Anything else? Stop being so butt hurt because someone said something about your precious artist. It's pathetic. I wasn't nasty about her at all. Jesus christ mate 😂😂

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel Once again... please post your vocals live, no autotune... with an accompaniant.... I also studied vocals for years, piano, was a state champion on cornet in my teenage years... doesn't make me equilavent to brilliant vocalists, instrumentalists or artists... keep crying boo hoo.. still haven't shown a video of yourself, live, with no autotune or anything else... and throwing out 'names'... means nothing.....

IKR? this guy is a dick. He doesn't know shit, give him a big thumbs down.

Yeah one if her killer songs....actually has a lot of Killa songs

You can be around for as many years as you like. No Vocalist is infallible

Ah I'm glad you see what I mean. I often catch a lot of heat in the comments if I say anything that isn't gleaming praise. It's funny

Nervous or not she just didn't bring it like this song should be brought for me and her technique was off in places. Sorry 🤷🏻‍♂️

I’d like to hear Charlie’s take on “Heroes” too. Others have already commented on her amazing sustained final note but not that it was a very high note that not every singer can reach anyway.

If you have a better explanation for the well know symptoms of nervousness in a vocal performance then I'm all ears

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel Yeah, you're right. Maybe she was nervous performing with Dave Stewart?

​@TheCharlieSmithChannel Just another know it all english person who doesn't count for much at all,,sing us a song charlie,,,,,,

@johnburton2874 😂😂

I'm a trained Vocalist my friend. This isn't a case of listening to her enough. It's bad technique. I'm not saying she's not a great singer and as I say I'm really nit picking here because she is actually really good

@Charlie Smith thing is, I've listened to her for over 20yrs, she has one of the world's greatest voices but makes unusual choices at times. Keep an ear out for her capabilities and you'll know someone this good has very few limitations. Great singers inform vocal coaches, there's no way a vocal coach can know how to produce a vanessa amorosi or floor Jansen.

I can see you're very besotted with her but I'm afraid that's just not true. She isn't so good that she defies the ability to critique her. I'm sorry she's just not

@Charlie Smith lol, keep listening to her and you'll see. I've been around a long time and don't limit myself to any genre or nationality.

@@paul-Ess Nobody said he did. 🤨😄

@@dolfyn73 made a goose of himself then edited his comment instead of admitting his mistake.

Doesn't matter how long you've been singing. Everyone is susceptible to being apprehensive about singing big songs. That's not a secret

Either way, this was not her best

I think you underestimate the breadth of the attribution of 'nerves' I don't mean nervous to perform, period. You can be an incredibly accomplished vocalist but if you chose a song which requires you to fill big enough boots and that stretches your vocal tools then there will be apprehension no matter who you are. Being an amazing singer doesn't suddenly make you immune to nerves. At all!

@@TheCharlieSmithChannelFair point but I’ll disagree on that also. You should check her covering a Janis Joplin number. These are also some seriously big boots. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UlyWO-jEjhw.html

That's not the kind of nerves I was talking about

🤣

I didn't give advice. It was an observation as someone who's had years of training and knows how nerves/apprehension can manifest in your singing 🤷🏽‍♂️

You didn't listen to what I said. You just got triggered by the word nervous

This wasn't even close to being a case of trying to not over sing. Over singing is adding too many runs and ornamentals. Not holding notes for their required length of time. She also didn't land some of the runs she DID do. I understand you wanting to defend an artist you love but no singer is infallible. Lead with the desire to be factual rather than the desire to defend

5:10 to 5:25 for examples of the runs not landing. This is the confidence thing I'm referring to again. She's almost backing out of the runs as she goes along. Bum notes, lacking clarity and intention. She's almost letting the run happen to HER rather than have her happen to the run and it just doesn't land properly. As I said in the video, someone who isn't trained probably wouldn't notice and I'm also not saying she isn't a great singer. But I'm also here to give a critique. I'm not here to just pour glorious sunshine on everybody regardless of how they perform. I feel like a lot of people only watch reactions to have their own love for an artist validated

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel point taken, and I know your intentions are very good. She even admits her nerves get to her at times. It was my way of getting you to have a listen to other stuff she’s done. We both hail from Melbourne Australia and she’s the nicest person you could ever meet. I think you’d like a lot of other stuff she’s done.

I dint know why. No one was instructing anything

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel you were explaining how she should sing the song from the 2:19 section, you know, where you were saying from singer to singer, maybe you could give me some titles of your latest hits, i will look them up and see if you qualify to say singer to singer, Vanessa sang to an audience of 3.7 billion people at the Sydney Olympic in 2000, dont be putting yourself in the same class, do choir singers tell opera singers how to sing?

@@iancremmins4727 haha I'm not impressed by an Olympics performance. That many people didn't come to see her. Their eyes were already on the event regardless of her. I find it incredible how butt hurt people get when you do anything but rain praise down on the artists they love. You're allowed to love them and I'm allowed not to. As a trained vocalist I am qualified to speak on people's vocal techniques. How many hits you've had is not the measure of your knowledge. That's ridiculous! My technical development teacher was George Michael's vocal coach and he'd not had one hit 8n hid life because he was a tutor and not an artist. Does that make him unqualified? That doesn't make any sense. I've shown this to many of my friends in the industry, including my friend in one of the most famous gospel choirs in the world, and they agree with me. It's good but not great. If you think it's great then more power to you. I don't 🤷🏻‍♂️. That's not to say I won't think other performances of her's are great, but this one wasn't it for me.

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel i dont know why you would be surprised about people disagreeing with your opinion,

@@iancremmins4727 that wasn't what I said

🤣🤣

Hey Miss Craig. Really glad you enjoy the videos. I have actually already heard this one. Allen Stone is one of my favourite artists

Well that sounds impossible !!! ... I've heard this superb human being live .. and that doesn't seem likely !!! ... proof is needed !! ...and that also seems unlikely !!! ... why isn't Vanessa building a fan base here in Australia instead of living in America and being lost amongst the many mediocre !!! ...

@@catherinerakich3291 No doubt she's a great singer , but someone can always be better . Why is she in the US ? Who knows . maybe shes trying to lift her profile I dont know . Many fantastic Aussie performers go there hoping for the best but leave disappointed. Cold Chisel comes to mind and John Farnham was told he was too old and decided to come back to Australia to be closer to family and perform here.

@@catherinerakich3291 Vanessa is back in Australia.

@@adamparker9765 She lives over there, not really to lift herself, she married an American and has a child now.

What whether you've heard of me got to do with it? Why are you pissed off? Because I didn't validate your own feelings about it?

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel No mate... because you are building a channel saying you are a renowned singer... and judging others.... who are you? Seriously? Just asking for your credentials in judging actual singers from other lands? That's all.....

Where did I say I was renowned?

@@TheCharlieSmithChannel well if you aren't mate... why are you judging other artists who literally have sold platinum records.... can sing their arse off.... okay.... I'll ask now... please show a video of you singing, no autotune... live on a stage.... I'll judge that.... then I'll decide if you are capable of judging other artists......

@@noone6559 I can judge whoever the hell I like haha. There's no license needed to give a critique. What the hell are you bleeting on about? You do realise you're free to not watch or listen to me. I really don't care. In fact I'd prefer you took your soft ass away. You're annoying as hell
