STAN WALKER x ULTRALIGHT BEAM / Voice Teacher Analyzes 

Stan is a survivor. His cancer story is one to know about. He overturned each turmoil obstacles that came his way. He sings like this for a REASON

Sir!! I'm a medical student...and when you started talking about the muscles?!?!?!?!?! I let out a yelp! COME ON ANATOMY!!!🤣🤣

To sing without a stomach, survive hereditary cancer and find new notes to express is amazing. This song is powerful.

If he sings like this without a stomach I can work my one vocal cord out! This is a blessing

That drummer was so fucking good

He doesn’t have any stomach, thus he unintentionally uses his thoracic and diaphragmatic region to breathe. It’s funny you notice that such in reality he doesn’t have any stomach. That’s why I trust your analysis 💯

Stan Walker is NO JOKE. Definitely react to more of him. His covers of "Amazing Grace," "Dont Dream It's Over" and "Gravity" are niiice.

The background singers are a group called THE STANDARD (Nate Peseta, Lilo & Ani Asiata [Married Couple]) they have individual videos on all socials

This is a pleasant surprise. From the lead, to the background and the instrumental, they kill it! 10s across the board!

Stan is such an underrated singer although popular in NZ he really deserves to go worldwide

So apparently someyears back he had stomach cancer and his stomach was removed. With all that happened with surgery and his battle, he had to learn to breathe again. This must have to be the reason behind what you're seeing with his higher breathing. You have the eye!

That's our Stan the man from New Zealand we are all very proud of him he's been through so much but he came out stronger, we love our Stan, you should check out him singing Amazing Grace.

You just introduced me to someone new and I'm happy you did. This guy s voice is outstanding and the brighter he got , the more I liked. Lol. His head voice is just so sweet. The back up singers, musicians, all just incredible!!

He has no stomach and is able to sing like that is true anointing from God. True Gift

Welcome to New Zealands talent .. 💯 alot of great singers in our small country

Released in 2019 this song was recorded at Parachute Studio in NZ, Backing Vocal group are "The Standard" members Ani Nuku, Lilo Asiata, Nate (Nathan) Peseta, and the Session band is "The Levites" made up of Christmas Ropati (Guitar) and the Nansen brothers Ross (Drums), Jacob (Keyboard) and Junior (Bass).

Checkout more live performances with the BV's and Levites - Don't Dream It's Over, Bigger or TUA (Maori version), Amazing Grace, Inside Out, New Light, Circle Of Life, He Kakano Ahau etc

I been waiting on you to react to this video! Stan is a beast with those vocals! AND THOSE BACKGROUND SANGERS!!!!!!

You are THE most entertaining, informative, and talented in your own right vocal teacher on the innanets. Literally inspiring with every analysis. I’m not just gassing you up today LOL. it just had to be said! Jarotones appreciate you!!

Child yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas they killed it omg!!!!!! new artist for apple music and yes! them background singer was fire!!!

I appreciate you so much. There’s a lot of ‘vocal coaches’ and ‘voice trainers’ on YT that can’t place notes, can’t identify between chest, head and stomach. And their feedback is just ‘his voice went really low because of the pitch of the note of the tone of his voice’ and ‘wow this is nice because his voice is good and toned’

Hey Jaron - Stan Walker won Austalian Idol back a few years ago when living in Australia - he is NZ Maori and his band are The Levites - each of whom has a superb voice as you have witnessed. They are Christian followers and extremely reverent and spiritual. Michael Buble was on the Australian Idol show and coaching Stan on one of his performances - he said "God has kissed your throat man!" The judges said he could sing the phone book. He has the voice of an angel. I think my all-time favourite male vocalist and next would be Teddy Swims! :-) Glad you got turned onto his music. Everything he sings is GOLD.

In his documentary, he wondered if he could ever sing again. He lost many people to stomach cancer and had his stomach removed.

This arrangement and them musicians FIYA too...My GoD!!!!!

Now they were SANGING!! ALL OF THEM!! YESS LAWD!

It was a matter of time before you got to Stan, fam can sang. And he surrounds himself with people he KNOWS can sing too without fear/jealousy/insecurity.

I'm not much for analyzers or reactors. They mainly give you what you already know, just in an extended for of their own words. You truly broke this song and performers down in almost forensic form. I enjoyed your obvious professionalism in teaching us the mechanics of singing while enjoying the spiritual nature of the song. It still gives me warmth and chills at the same time. Thank you for your insight. I am now a subscriber.

it was my video you reacted to! appreciate you mate.

Yoooo, I’ve been binge watching Stan walker reactions all week lmao. The whole time I was thinking “I’m surprised Jaron hasn’t reacted to this”. Lo and behold lmao. I stg, I be manifesting things😂 great analysis vid uce💙

The way I CLICKED THIS video so quickly. Thank you so much for your time and for this reaction, I have been waiting for you to react to Stan!!

Thanks for turning me on to Stan's music!!! I added him to my Spotify mix!!! Lots of great original music!

Stan Walker’s voice is astonishingly great.I love absolutely everything he does musically. The Levites backing here is gorgeous. When Stan was on Australian Idol at 16 Michael Buble was one of the tutors for a week….when Buble spoke about Stan he said…. I have got nothing to teach him…..his voice is way better than mine……Stan won Australian Idol at 16. When Stan sang Prince’s Purple Rain , (I am also a huge Prince fan) I was gobsmacked with just how soulful and good he sounded. Stan has had so much adversity growing up amongst violence SA, DV, drugs and then his stomach cancer and his stomach removed……yet he has survived it all , and just grows better and better…it is insane….and he is super positive and grateful and loving to his wife, young family and mother. He is just so soulful….I love his music and I love his soul.

Thank you for reacting/analysing this Stan Walker cover!! Please check out his Amazing Grace cover 🔥

Why don't I know this man and these people?!? 🔥🔥🔥

Thank you for discovering STAN Walker !!!!

High class all the way around. Seasoned musicians, singers, studio, equipment, videographers… - fire just like u said Jay. Thanks for sharing

Finally!!!!! Man I am so late to Stan, his voice is amazing. I watched his doc and became a fan. His story is so amazing.

Yes, that is a anointing voice,singing from his soul thank you God!❤😊 be encourage Stan and back ground singers,God bless you all, I'm so encourage hearing this powerful songs❤

My goodness...the goosebumps I got from that intro snippet made me put this one on the TV and soundbar! P.O.W.E.R.F.U.L. Thank you for sharing such a sonic treat with us per usual my friend! Hugs and blessings to u always 🤗👏🏾💯🔥

I didn’t know there was so many things considered when singing 😂 new subscriber and Stan is a beast!

Some other awesome New Zealand artist are Hollie Smith - bathe in the river Aaradhna - brown girl Teeks - first time

I have been on a Stan Walker trek since I watched this analysis. His story is heartfelt. He is a living miracle❤

Teach us about this breathing!!! I love your technical breakdowns!

Omg I'm so glad you explained the breathing process. I always felt my breathing when singing was a little higher and it always scared me even though I never felt any tension in my jaw or neck. But I also loved this performance!

Watch him sing Amazing Grace

Yaaas! This is what I have been waiting for. Please do his Amazing Grace/I surrender 🙏 You are so great, Jaron.

You also have a beautiful voice

Im know vocal scholar, but I love how he can put his voice wherever he wants it. The background vocals are all that, im glad you waited for all three before your comment. Your interpretations and reditions are spot on. I wish I could sing like yall sad😭

Whether known or unknown, there is African lineage here, Samoans, Tongans, Māori etc have African ancestry. It’s very hard to authentically tap into this sort of channeling/energy without it as Black/African American music is made from it and requires a very specific source/connection to produce the energy but also the type of sound/voice needed; it’s what makes it powerful and we can always tell the difference when it’s forced imitation/mimicry (non-Blacks who grew up around Blacks, listened to Black music etc) vs an authentic connection. Very well done. And to others commenting who are having issues with his analysis, he can judge/critique. This is his (Jaron’s) culture.

Please please please please breakdown Matt Corby - Bother (live version) It’s incredible. It leaves most reactors speechless. Matt and Stan are both from Australia Idol… some of our best vocalists.

He opened for Beyoncé's Ms Carter Show World Tour when she came to New Zealand in 2014!

THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO THIS I LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS 😊

Thanks for introducing me to these wonderful saaangers.

Thank you for your analysis of the full version!! I think you would love Stans version of Amazing Grace too 🙏🏼

Man I’ve been wtg for this! Yes he is a vocal BEAST and background singers ARE AS WELL. Be sure to watch some of their vids as well. They too will BLESS YOUR SOUL😊

That was a great breakdown and explanation of this video. Love Stan, he’s got such a strong spirit, sooo talented yet humble. Such a blessing and inspiration to many.

This is an excellent review of a really beautiful song. And you are absolutely right, this is some GOOD singing.

These ARTISTS are from " AOTEATOA " " LAND OF THE LONG WHITE CLOUD " commonly referred to in English as NEW ZEALAND 🇳🇿 this here my bro, open you up to Polynesia, South Pacific Styles.

I love your analysis❤️❤️ this is my go to when I'm down. This track was made 2 years ago and it's finally reached 1.2 million views. People are only discovering him but he's like a neighbour that just walks through to the kitchen and grabs a beer and says broooooo I wanna feed ❤️❤️❤️🤣🤣😍😍 I love Stan. His love for God is the reason why his career wasn't taken by a recording company overseas. He's raw and that's what's gorgeous and powerful. He sings how I feel. So glad you found him ❤️

Loved Stan since he smashed Purple Rain on Australian Idol year ago Amazing voice and wonderful person

Really loved your commentary as a professional. Better than a lot of videos where people just watch the video. Super awesome.

I love how much you’re vibing with the song. It’s like watching it with a friend who appreciates it even more deeply than we could on our own. And yes, the background singers take this from a great cover to unbelievable.

He is a wonderful humble young man very proud of his Māori heritage, and won’t conform to mainstream music hence the lack of followers I mean he has a lot,but should be millions more in my opinion, also he isn’t saying (lord) he is saying light (I look to the light) ❤

You mentioned the background SANGERS and I appreciate that…not being a singer myself. I just like to hear them get their flowers. Cuz they were 🔥

You've got a new subscriber here. My fave video. Just amazing. Try his Amazing Grace and Aussie performers John Farnham (covering the Beatles' Help with the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra) and Matt Corby doing Brother live on radio station Triple J's Like a Version segment.

Amazing analysis of singing and it’s technicalities. 👏

It's crazy that Stan is a self taught singer. That is God given!!

Stan Walker he is fire. Never heard of him until today. I looked him up and he can Sang❤. I love that he also reps his origins and ethnicity singing in the Te Reo Maori dialect

Stan is my favourite Australian Idol singer… woww Michael Buble told him that his voice was like God kiss his throat…The best voice specially when he sing “ It is a men’s world “ he sing better than the original singer ❤😍🥰🥰

Loved your reaction! Every time I listen to this, I get chills. ♥

he had to learn to sing differently since he doesn't have a stomach anymore

The music theory is amazing, lots of love bro

Mannnn! I so enjoyed this video! I love their vocals, and I love yours as well! I love how you analyzed their vocal! Wow!

Your words are so beautiful ty for your expression truly

Thank you so much for having this channel. I have learned so much of the terminology and the biology of how we are using our entire bodies to execute our voice!! I love it!! I knew what I was doing but I didn't know the terminology.

5:54 Stan's singing "...no longer am I afraid of the night 'cause I look to the light" 6:15 he's not singing 'Lord' without the 'R' . Sorry, just wanted to put this out 🙂

listening gives me goosebumps! the totality of this is everything!!

You are so loved and appreciated, Mr.Jaron! ❤✨✨

I really love this man! Thank you for your awesome knowledge of singing and our bodies! ❤️❤️🖐😁👍

Bro you are the most technical analysis of stan I've seen so far.

Absolutely loved your analysis of this beautiful piece by Stan Walker and the Levites ♥♥♥

My God! This is amazing! Stan's voice, this performance, and your analysis!

Love the song, and your great comments. You're a voice too ! Rx

I was just introduced this man TODAY! And... I am blown away! I mean BLOWN AWAY! 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Awesome informative reaction thank you, I think this song is perfect for Stan, so many subtle things he does and like you said not all over the place can still hear everything he's saying. He has Soo many songs to react to but "new light, Whaakaria Mai "how great thou art" is awesome!!! His high note in purple rain is sick.
