@@amp4105if you’re joking fairs but people should know EVERY modern vocal is comped (pieced together from multiple takes) , quantised (put into time) , tuned (notes that weren’t 100% hitting the exact note are corrected) & then mixed to sound full and cohesive
Simmy1 but is still not a really incredible singer, but i know she really improved I kinda miss this katy, idk why but her old music was full of emotions and powerful, she was my idol
No matter how she is live, noone can deny the fact that katy has a powerful voice...the way she can project her voice is NOT something everyone can do easily. And besides hitting the high notes, she has a beautiful tone and a warm timbre....and her falsetto is one of the best among the female singers today. And to all of those just dropping "autotune!" as an excuse, let me tell you, autotune will not sing a song and will not do your work for you, you have to be talented enough to be able to even use autotune properly to polish something. And one last thing, rather than wasting your time in the comment section arguing "autotune can do everything!!!!!", just go and watch her firework performances where she literally hits all the notes.
Do you ever feel like a plastic bag Drifting through the wind Wanting to start again? Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin Like a house of cards One blow from caving in? Do you ever feel already buried deep? Six feet under screams, but no one seems to hear a thing Do you know that there's still a chance for you 'Cause there's a spark in you You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine Just own the night like the 4th of July 'Cause, baby, you're a firework Come on, show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh" As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework Come on, let your colors burst Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh" You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe You don't have to feel like a waste of space You're original, cannot be replaced If you only knew what the future holds After a hurricane comes a rainbow Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow And when it's time, you'll know You just gotta ignite the light, and let it shine Just own the night like the 4th of July 'Cause, baby, you're a firework Come on, show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh" As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework Come on, let your colors burst Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh" You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon It's always been inside of you, you, you And now it's time to let it through 'Cause, baby, you're a firework Come on, show 'em what you're worth Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh" As you shoot across the sky Baby, you're a firework Come on, make your colors burst Make 'em go, "Oh, oh, oh" You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon Boom, boom, boom Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
2% Auto-tuned 3% Echos 95% KATY'S POWERFUL VOICE In the chorus, Katy had to squeeze her butt to reach that high note. it's true bit it doesn't matter. we can't blame her, she have a lovely and powerful voice. LEGEND
I feel out of breath just by lip syncing ....such a difficult song to sing...one of the most or most difficult ever maybe coz honestly, honestly i never heard a song which is as energetic as firework & also goes without any rest at all....katy did an awesome job really....
i am engineer and use auto tune daily. Even the best singers use auto tune. Auto tune is not a fix all solution. if you sound like shit it will still sound like shit when you auto tune it. Singing with auto tune is still a skill as it is easier to get better sounding stuff you still have to melody and timing.

It's so sad that pop stars are actualy talented but they are distacted by fame tours and all that and they don't take care of their voice... And as the time passes their voices fades.. Listen Katy to her start(live) and then the last live perfonce of her... It's such a shame!
What in the earth are you talking about? Katy has gotten way better than she was in her debut album days....I mean she still sang her acoustic songs beautifully and still had a great falsetto use but nowadays her high notes and beltings have improved a lot if you compare it with that time.
There is autotune in here. If a singer has autotune on their vocals that is fine. almost EVERY song you here on the radio has autotune involved. If a singer RELIES on autotune however thats where it really shows how much of a singer they are. Katy Perry can sing though and its ok if she has autotune in her songs. its just to give that extra little clean up.
Coxo Chary doesn't matter how good a singer is, out voice can sound a little flat sometimes. Auto tune is used in almost every single song to correct very small wavers or pitch.
@@keegster7167 That won't sell if it's on an album. Those tracks are just little capsules which need to be perfected in the technically best way possible.
Exactly. I don't hear it in "thing", I hear vibrato. I do hear the auto tune "ignite.." It looks smooths her voice and her natural raspiness, which sucks cause I LOVE that about her voice.
working in audio production and knowing how things work that was not intended to be a firework sound it was definitely to make it sound like she could hold that note...
Well here voice does have effects on it man. In the forefront we hear some small tuning artifacts and behind that the is reverb and in some parts delay What is commonly referred to by non audio professionals as "echo" is reverb...which gives the illusion of space by either being in a room that is reverberant by nature or more likely has digital reverberation on a send. Reverb is a slough of discreet echos that are repeated hundreds of times after the initial signal is sent into it to creat a sense of depth
that maybe true but there are many other videos and other stuff that are called acapellas when people use their voice for the instruments it could be that the word is used for both subjects
Sadly we live in a time where people feel its not right until its been put through melodyne. If it makes you feel better they've used pitch correction quite creatively to enhance her performance overall in this case. The thing that I feel lets this acapella down is the rushed edits that are clearly audible towards the end of the song. PS the use of editing DOES NOT make her a bad singer, its simply a product of modern recording allowing us to make people sound larger than life.
