The fact that she chose a song called "Breathe" just destroys me. Someone else has already said this about her, but I'll say it too: Cute as a mouse, stronger than iron.
@@butterstamp3767 bro shut tfu she literally has 50% lung capacity. Last time i had 50% lung capacity I got pneumonia and even as a singer i'd've died before being able to sing as half as good as that.
As a classically trained singer myself, I can fully appreciate the amount of training and strength required to be able to sing like that. Ironmouse has some absolutely lights out vocal chops. And because I know about all the work and sacrifice that goes into training your voice to sound that good, I feel like it hits doubly hard for me knowing how life screwed her over with a shit hand. Seriously. Ironmouse deserves all the good things. God damn QUEEN.
Not to mention the fact that she says that it feels like she is breathing through a straw now…so having all that control with her voice, with such little control over her breathing is incredible.
I think she said on stream with connor that she used to be a coloratura soprano. My non-singer brain doesn't know what that means but Google had some interesting tidbits...
@RHTQ1 The most commonly used example of a classic, coloratura soprano is the Queen of the Night aria from The Magic Flute by Mozart. As a lyrics mezzo myself I can really only dream of singing notes like that. 😅
@@RHTQ1 Just look up Ironmouse Opera voice. A good one is "Ironmouse sings when I look at your (Operatic Mouse)" You'll realize how good she was 2 years ago, let alone 1 year go. Then you'll realize how she can hardly breathe and is hooked on machines and still sings this well. Ironmouse is (in my heart) one of the best female singers alive today, she was just robbed of the opportunity at every corner. I was brought to near tears when I first heard her Opera voice on a stream, and many people around me were bawling. I can't imagine what kind of effect she'd have on people if she was allowed to take off all the machines, all her constraints, and given even 1 solid year to train.
To be honest, she was probably paying for that later in the evening, she was left coughing for the rest of stream the last time she sang. To most, we'd say it was amazing.
@@TaiGell You are correct. I should have been clearer on my opinion: Mousey's voice is honestly better than most singers I know on a good day. And I know a few people who sing for a living.
I'm just here appreciating how teccys reaction to the overwhelming emotion he felt lead immediately to wanting to dance with his wife that was wholesome as fuck
I really, really hope that one day, Ironmouse will be able to complete her training as a professional opera singer that has come to an halt due to her health condition. And that one day she'll be able to perform on a big stage, in front of a large audience. Maybe she won't be able to leave her house but project her Avatar on stage: Miku Hatsune, Kizuna AI, The Gorillaz... they all did it successfully.
@@TaiGell True. And i must say that i'm rather into classical music rather than Opera. But there are nevertheless some arias that i love listen to from time to time. But despite that: one can hear that mousey is a professional singer. She knows what she's doing and one can hear the professional training she received. And while i'm not into the whole VTuber game per-se i know that she sang quite a few songs on her streams. Maybe one day she'll do an Opera-exclusive stream (if her health and voice plays along ^^)
@@Pendragon667 My channel have almost all recent mouse singing parts of streams. That's main theme of channel. And i think i have a couple videos with her opera singing.
@@Pendragon667 She won't be sadly able to do opera exclusive. Operatic voice is very demanding on her, and she is able to sing max 1, in really, really best condition 2 songs, then her voice goes away.
@@TsusakuCohenat it varies. She's had covid for 2 months and is concerned it will be about 3. So it will take recovery after that. 2 steps forward, 1 step back.
Ironmouse is one of those great humble beginnings stories. Someone who started out as an independent vtuber using a free avatar, a headset mic, and suffering from health problems, she really went into her own. Now thousands of people know her, she's part of a much larger vtuber community, and her singing talent has been recognized as being so good it brings people to tears. Here's to Ironmouse yall! ^_^
I'm just gonna correct one thing in your paragraph: Ironmouse is one of those great SHIT beginnings stories. Her health SHOULD HAVE ruined her. Now look at her. Now listen to her. She is... amazing!
i have fought in the ring, i have fought and tasted war, i have faced my fears and done all the scary things.... lolol that shit will always get me even when im out here pretending im a bad ass lololol
Mousey's singing alwasy has me stunned. She is so good. She draws on the heartstrings every time. Gotta love Tec's face during all this. He is visibly touched, even tearing up. Gotta love the guy. He has such a big heart.
He really does. I've been watching his streams a bit recently. They range from belligerent screaming, just absolute meathead energy, to these really deep philosophical topics he has with his own chat. I've seen people complain that they tried to watch a Tectone stream and found him irritating, annoying, loud, and just couldn't stand him. Ironically, this is why I found him. Aethel remixed his loud voice and it was some of the funniest shit I'd ever heard. I don't think he's as much of a loud jerk as people think, but that's definitely his motif. He prides himself on being tough. Therefore, it's impressive that IronMouse not only reached his heart, but she had him sobbing perfusely and then dancing with his girl romantically. That's a side of Tectone I don't think anyone was expecting. That's just how good Mousey is.
People can't help but be emotional over her voice. She's so beautiful both personally and musically, and for that kind of power to come out of someone so frail would evoke emotion out of anybody with a heart. Great clip. 💖
I love how you can tell that mouse isn’t just being humble saying her voice isn’t as good as normal right now. My girlfriend and I have been singing for ages and my girl coaches musical theatre, we agree her support seems to be dropping sometimes, probably because of her condition. To be dropping support and still being this unbelievably awesome is a testament to how good she is at her peak.
I love how everyone is reacting to Mousey, especially Tectone just looks so emotional and proud/in awe?. You know how she sings, but it's even better when you see the raw reactions of the people. And this was just a fraction of her power.
You ever feel proud of someone you've never even met...? Cause when I see Mousey light up a room like that that's how I feel. She's been dealt a shit hand and instead of giving up she's choosing to push through and bring smiles to people's lives. Motivates me to be a better me every day.
Man what the hell? Breathe is probably one of the most sung songs she's done on stream and I for some reason, its way more emotional hearing now. I guess its because of all her friends reacting the same emotionally as I am that I realized this time its better.
All Hail the pipes of IRON MOUSE!!! Spread the joy & emotion that she exudes on every stream with every song she sings. The Precious Famoly is always proud of our talented young star.
Oh God, I've never seen Tectone cry. I've only followed Tectone recently, so I can't confirm this. These are his words. "I don't cry dude. Nothing can make me cry dude" So like...damn. He's really falling apart. I can't tell if I'm typing this I can't see with all these tears in the way... AWWWW HES DANCING WITH HIS SWEETHEART THATS SOO NIICE 😭
@@Edgarivan3000 I didn't mean to be condescending or anything. What I meant is that he's a surprisingly soft guy with a heart of gold, like he's our baby boy/streamer. I should've made it clearer because in retrospect, yeah I can see why it sounds like a diss.
Mousey's singing is always so great. It's obvious she loves to do it, too. You know she's having a great day when she uses her opera voice. EDIT: 666 likes? Perfection for Mousey.
@@adrammelech6323 Don't you know? She was training to become an opera singer before her diagnosis. She can only use her opera voice when she's feeling really good.
@@BNuts I know about her training and illness. This still has nothing to do with opera. Opera is acting a play while singing. Even if you mean operatic voice that's still not it, cos it usually means something close to Bel Canto. That's just normal contemporary music theater like singing.
Like I said on another video, I love the contrast in reactions from everyone. Tectone and Rich are crying at the beautiful performance, meanwhile all the vtubers are just vibing. And then Nyanners with that Harmonica 😂😂
This mouse has one the most gorgeous singing voices I have ever heard in my life. I am actually tearing up because it was so beautiful, and for me that is REALLY saying something. Does she have any original songs with her singing? I would love to hear it.
You challenged an opera singing to sing a song for 60 dollars :P On top of that a sick person. And on top of that Ironmouse! Shes got guts personality: D
@@JustSomeoneRandom1324 Her real story is better than any underdog story they could manufacture. Both her parents had to come out of retirement due to her condition, and she's also been bedridden for years. But through her streaming career she's now able to not only pay her own medical bills, but buy a house for herself and her parents. One big enough where she can have friends stay over without getting in the way of her parents. Her parents could also once again retire from working, and this time it's for life.
@@LaughingOrange I was trying to mention it in a manner where the tone is still light. More focusing on winning against the token sob story candidate than why that is the case. I know her condition is serious, I felt like I toed the line of ruining the tone with my remark and tried to stay as positive as possible. The details were too serious for me to respond to a compliment with.
Just recently found out about IronMouse. To know about her having a condition making it difficult to do what she loves, yet she still tanks through to do so anyways always manages to bring a tear to my eye. She sings amazingly!
Tectone knows that mouse wanted to be a professional opera singer and her CVID has like left her bedridden, wonder if that's why he was kinda emotional
Such a phenomenal talent. I sometimes forget just how skilled a singer Mousey really is. Always nice to be reminded. Also shoutouts to Techy for dancing with Fream at the end of it. That was cute.
I'm just like tectone man. Every fucking time i hear this song start and mouse is gonna sing it i just know ill be sobbing and having a lump in my throat at the end of the song.
Man I have so much respect for ironmouse. Even just that opening note was outstanding. She's all like oh I'm nervous this won't be that good And then busts this out. Lol
Dear god my reactions mirrored Tectone's and Rich's the entire time, from holding back tears, laughing, and just sitting here with a stupid shit eating grin and resting my head on my hands.
This is from my favorite musical of all time!!!! I’ve heard mouse sing before but something about this time has me in tears, I’m legit just sitting at my desk bawling my eyes out and I don’t know why! 1000/10 best streamer
