See my only thing is, when billie eilish is performing emotional songs (songs that should be listened to without screaming lyrics back at the singer) everyone quiets to hear it. He deserves that too.
i agree! i think it's cos people were really hyped up about Marcus being there but this song would 100% be better without people screaming in the background haha
Seeing him in July and was worried this song might make me cry too much … but if the idiots near me insist on SCREAMING the lyrics like this so I can’t even enjoy the music, then I guess I won’t be having any kind of spiritual moment. I will be just fucking pissed off. OMG! You can’t even HEAR HIM!!!!!
There might be loud people next to you, but the band should be much louder. On recordings the balance is often worse, phones pick up the nearby sound more than your ears actually do (just what I've noticed listening to my own recordings from past concerts). Not a guarantee, but I hope you can enjoy your show and the people near you aren't too loud!
Too bad. Should have been a masterpiece, but instead we have the typical audience that assumes everyone paid to hear them scream the lyrics at the musicians... SMH
@denise8791 that's a very forgiving take. I disagree about harm, though. If a painting elicited such emotion that someone resorted to covering it with graffiti or a dance compelled its audience to stampede the stage, we would rightfully call such reactions destructive. I see the same behavior in any bellowing concert goer. They are destroying the art they claim to love. Worse, they are assuming that no one else in the audience should be allowed to enjoy that art. It's an entitled, narcissistic worldview that is very anti-social. I see plenty of harm in that.
@H1ST0RYWriter I understand where you're coming from... but the painting comparison is a little dramatic. Or the dance. Not the same in slightest. Lol It's not harmful to sing along at a concert. It's nicer than when the artist is so conceited they actually tell the audience to NOT sing along and won't perform until its silent. Feeling the performance and singing along is interacting. You don't interact the same with a painting...or a dancer. That's just not the same... but I do honestly wish they would record this version and put it on Spotify. To hear it in its full potential. Have a good one😊
@denise8791 sing along & scream along are not the same. And the comparison is apt: just like it the painting, the audience is hiding the art by obscuring the sound of the artist. Just like in the dance, the audience is interrupting the art by presuming everyone else wants to hear them screech (often off-key) over the artist. As a casual musician, I do not perform to have people in the audience scream at me. And just because I don't enjoy being screamed at doesn't make me a snob. In the end, ppl paid money to hear the performer, not the audience. It's very entitled to assume everybody wants to hear one individual audience member's "interact(action)" rather than the artist they paid money to witness.
@@H1ST0RYWriter i also think something else to consider is this was at a music festival where usually the audiences are larger and the acoustics are vastly different then a standalone concert. 2ndly phone cameras are REALLY good at picking up sound close to the camera. i go to see Noah at Bonnaroo and while he was on tour. they are very different atmospheres. Even with the people screaming you can still very much hear the artist. Acoustics is very complex but in the video they are at the front of the pit where they usually don't have many speakers because you are so close which makes it very difficult for a phone to pick up the artist over the audience. i can say with 99% certainty that everyone in that crowd could hear everyone on stage.
