VOCAL COACH REACTS | A Ginger and Jinjer PERENNIAL (Live)... a journey of facial-expressions. 

This song is literally about the harsh life of a perennial flower

Youll never hear a fererro rocher make those sounds again

JINJER - Judgement (& Punishment) - Tatiana Shmayluk - One Take Vocal Performance also really good from her

"Why is there a circle" made me chuckle. Those are "pits". People run around during really fast and heavy songs and hit each other. Sounds dumb from my explanation, but it's a fun way to get energy out

"it kind of looks like something resurrecting" As she is literally singing "From the ashes of my roots the new me will rise to live again" :D

She is wrapped in gold for a reason. All HAIL Queen Tatiana

You might want to look at Tatyana's one take version of "Judgment and Punishment". It came out a bit over a week ago, and it gives a really good picture of what she does without distractions. And she has a cute cat.

My band opened for them while they were in america this past fall, and seeing her in person gave me even more respect then I had before. One of the best modern vocalist I've seen in person

The stank face in lots of music genres is a sign of appreciation, nothing weird about it.

Perennial, like plants that die back and go dormant during the winter then grow again from their roots in spring.

In essence, this song is about nature and humans dying, then living again. It's about us sharing that same thing with nature.

“Engage the people.” Oh. Oh she does. Seeing her live is crazy. And mind-bending that this short, petite woman has such enormous stage presence.

Tatiana once said that she developed her techniques and never recommend em to anyone. she doesn't do warm ups but she sings everyday and that's her practice.

As a Jinjer reaction addict, please know Julia, that yours are some of the best in terms of breakdowns of the music in spite of you not being familiar with her fry and false cord techniques. And I'll consistently come back to watch your analysis because of it.

Fun fact...she's an amazing opera singer...and she teaches classes on how to sing the way she is in this video cause she was sick of people hurting their voices...so she teaches them a healthy way

When she’s right in the camera and says “come back and celebrate this festival of life” and points at the crowd is so god damn cold

"You have to keep going or the music will roll you over" facts.

“What a front woman” - yes she is truly amazing, she is the complete package, she brings it every performance

Perennial saves my life.

"Her aura is pure power...." You nailed it, Julia!

That's called a circle pit, a specific form of mosh pit. Like wall of death is another specific form of moshing

Every member of this band are amazingly talented, and Tatiana is an amazing lyricist, especially impressive because english is not her first language.

Julia, Please don't get scared of this one. High energy from the get go. And an air-kick!!! She owes this show and stage... Jinjer is the BEST thing to ever come out of the former U.S.S.R. For sure and for certain!!!! My favorite part is coming up. When she gets up on her perch and sings "As I rise!!!" It blows my mind..... This woman is unreal good....... Love it!!! Your channel lady is a treat!! Thank you so much. Power YES!!!!

10:27 I just watched The Charismatic Voice's interview with Tatiana and she is a completely intuitive singer. She doesn't know how she does it and she lives as if it's a separate entity who has it's own will. She seems to embrace the soul of what you said here. (I'm just blown away she self-taught and hasn't destroyed her voice, contrarily it seems she just intuitively knows what is healthy.)

I've seen Jinjer live 2 times and you have NO IDEA how much engergy these guys are throwing right into your face until you have experienced it live by yourself. This high level of energy lasts until the last note. The crowd is loaded w| that energy and sometimes it needs a pop-off like the moshpit (that circle of people shoveling and pushing each other).

Jinger musicians are amazing. I don't know how they can keep up these unusual time signatures much less remember the complex chords they have created. Love Tatiana's clean vocals though. They are exquisite. Thank you Julia for this unique and fun reaction.

That breat control is amazing ❤️

"I just have to keep moving to it".... congrats Julia, you are a budding metalhead!

"Why is there a circle?" is my personal quote of the day 😄

You are very sensitive to emotion in music. This why you are so authentic, and a music appreciator.

she is a real talent and a force to enjoy....

That circle?.... yeah that that's our dance floor. 😉😘

The semi-recent "one take vocal performance" of Judgement (& Punishment) would be a great video to do with your colleague when you want to see a masterclass and huge focus on the vocal technique.

"Why is there a circle?" I loved that😆

That power stand you mention at the end. I've seen that one place before, frequently. Freddie Mercury. She's a performer not just a singer. Best Band I've seen in decades.

She says singing in her normal voice is more tiring than the growl.

Tatiana is Incredible...listen to her after the song..you can hear how much effort she puts into singing...WOW. when Tatiana holds that long note then switches to the growl...Damn that was amazing

I was in the crowd at that concert and that woman is Stunning in every aspect. Seeing her live is even better than on tape, it's amazing. I hope I get to see them again.

God, she is so flawless

Julia, When Tatiana had her hands near her head. In my mind she was not fixing her hair, but instead she was activating the Queen Rock Mode, She working her little bottom off. She is good at expression with her hands & everything else.... Some of her skill-set might be self taught. Who cares, I LOVE to watch and listen to her. Take care!!!!!

Welcome to Metal. That feeling of energy, power, and drive can be intoxicating.

When people say the phrase "powerful women" she's one of the first people that comes to mind

Besides not having training and warming up, she smokes a drinks, too. We can only hope her throat doesn't get injured or that she doesn't burn out. She's kind of a reluctant Star who's extremely shy and would rather be in alone in her room (or maybe with her new-ish guy) than in front of a crowd. I think she's a bit tired singing metal, too. But Tatiana, we NEED you!!

The intro seemed like it was about to go into the epic part of a movie? Nah, just the epic part of epic-ness! 🤘

About the quality of the music, you should do "I Speak Astronomy". Absolute Masterpiece.

Super reaction. And every time I hear this song, I appreciate it more. I think Jinjer are the best thing to happen to rock music since Led Zeppelin.

The juxtaposition of her beautiful clean clear almost angelic voice contrasted with her angry almost satanic growl along with the fact that she is a skilled show woman with an awesome & creative band and you have a captivating combination.

Imagine h9w much power she have, remember... She sing the last song and still have the voive like that..... What a great great woman

You mention what an amazing frontwoman she is. Nothing shows that better than "Who Is Gonna Be The One (Live)| Napalm Records". Beautiful live footage. She empties her whole bag of tricks. Plus it shows how skilled and tight the entire band is. Every member is amazing.

I cant get over how beautiful your smile and hair combo are. Well played, madam.

5:44 What's that circle? That's the PIT BABY!

Tatiana is One of a Kind! Teacher Teacher is my favorite track of theres. Love Her. Wa, State🎶❤

I love how you can hear everything in the mix. Vocals, guitar, drums, bass. Just amazing.

"why is there a circle?" because circle pits are awesome 😁

Yes, Tatiana is not only the most versatile singer ever, she has unearthly stage presence. Love the reaction.

Everyone who listens to this group, falls in love with it.

Tatyana is an amazing artist. My dad is a retired vocal therapist and research doctor and she, as well as Devin Townsend blew him away.

Tatti is a special talent. Her stage presence coupled with the extraordinary talent of the other members of the band is an incredible dynamic. As far as you go, your insight, observations and style of commentary is, in my opinion, next level. Outstanding work.

Tatiana is from outer space. So sweet n dark at the same time. Such an amazing song indeed.

You're absolutely right when you say that she doesn't do structured warm-ups but does a bunch of other stuff that means she doesn't need to.

Seen them live twice. Can confirm: She is an absolute powerhouse on stage!

I love this performance.

Roman on guitar, Eugene on bass, and Vlad on drums and of course Tatiana with the awesome vocals. All very very talented.

The circle is basically the main reason most of us go to concerts, other reasons are obviously to admire the sheer talent these people have, but you gotta take a song or two to just get in that circle and feel the energy produced by the whole thing in there its just an amazing feeling 😬😂

Jinjer is making me more and more interested in this genre everytime I see a vid about them

How could anybody not like this enough to actually "push the like button"! I am relatively new here and would like to share a few thoughts I have been collecting while catching up with your videos (so sorry for the length of the message): - One thing I truly like about your channel that I think differentiates it from so many others, is the fact that you don’t hold nor keep anything to yourself. The good things and the bad things are all highlighted here! When you notice a flaw (which everybody has every now and then) you point it out so we all can learn how to notice them on our own. - Two things I love about your reactions: they are as spontaneous/honest as they come, but also are very professional/objective. You are just as knowledgeable as candid! You can easily go from the brink of tears with Nightwish to whatever happened to you with Jinjer (Piscis), going through very deep and professional analysis of “simple” things with Ayreon. Amazing! - Which takes me to the final one: probably we all are here for the vocals! But you know so much of so many other things in music... The little jewels you drop from time to time on instrumentation, time signatures, musicianship, equalization, stage presence, emotion… Please, keep sharing all of those with us! They are truly invaluable. Finally, in some other videos’ comments you asked if your explanations are “too technical”… My humble opinion is that it could be a matter of terminology, maybe. So, of you could walk us through the relations, equivalence, differences between concepts and terms, I think that would help a lot. For example, what is the relation between first or second register and head voice or chest voice. That kind of stuff. Oh, by the way… Love the fact you are enjoying symphonic/melodic metal! I personally believe it is such a rich genre and it presents so many opportunities for you to talk about all those thinks you know… THANK YOU, Julia!

I found your comment about her looking like she was resurrecting something very interesting because that is spot on. The lyrics in that part say "from the ashes of my roots the new me will rise to live again". When I first saw some of their live performances I never thought about it, I just thought she was really animated on stage, but I slowly realized that the movements she makes on stage are not random or spontaneous, they are in fact quite calculated, she is actually acting out the lyrics of the song. To me that shows that she truly lives and breathes these songs, they come from the soul. Some lyrical segments are more abstract, so acting them out has to be more interpretive, but if you watch closely, almost everything she does on stage is connected to the lyrics in every video. As for the lyrics of this song, it describes the way her seasonal depression feels through the metaphor of a perennial flower (and by extension nature as a whole) that dies in the fall, sleeps in a coma through the winter, then is reborn in the spring. The lyrics are truly remarkable and powerful and I could talk for days about them but i'm trying to keep it shorter. One thing that really impressed me but you might have missed (since you didn't play the video all the way through) was how absolutely winded and exhausted she was after the song, she could barely get a few words out, yet during the song her breath control was perfect, there was no indication whatsoever that she was exhausted like she clearly was. She even goes so far as to hold notes for 11 seconds, having many long sections of singing with so little room to breathe in between. That blows my mind. Yeah she said she doesn't really warm up, or take care of her voice; her defense was that she is basically always warmed up because of how often she is performing or just singing. She also said that she smokes and drinks, which she admitted was not good. She didn't really defend that, she was thankful that her body seems to be fairly resilient and could handle it and that no doubt a time will come when she will have to make changes. She told people not to try and be like her and do what she does because she is a bad example and basically has just been lucky so far.

the circle you were talking about is called a moshpit and it's pure caos i don't recommend being in one of these if you have no experience

Now you must react to "Teacher Teacher" and "I Speak Astronomy" from Jinjer too.

The part were you said it looks like something resurrecting always felt the same to me, and as she's singing "From the ashes of my roots , The new me will rise to live again" it makes perfect sense. And when she's done singing you can tell she's super out of breath, but it didn,t show at all during her performance, she held it together so well. What a pro! What a beast!

Not many vocalists make the hair stand up on the back of my neck....Tatiana, Linda Ronstadt, Ann Wilson....Beth Hart. Tatiana is the absolute queen , though....Love Jinjer.

If you like her switches between growls and cleans in this song you're gonna love Teacher Teacher. Also her front woman skills are on full display in that one as well.

I’ve listened to this type of music pretty much my whole life and I’m 40. She’s not just one of the best females I’ve heard she’s one of the best period I’ve ever heard.

"I Speak Astronomy" would be a great one to examine.

The scream at 11:31 really gives the chills. So intense.

"... WHAT A FRONT WOMAN .. " YYYEEESSSSSS SHE COMMANDS RESPECT AND SOCKS IT TO THEM

Congrats on 50k, lovely! 🍻 🎊

5:45 The circle is called a "mosh pit" where the crowd is "moshing/slam dancing/slamming," which is described as: "a style of dance in which participants push or slam into each other, typically performed to "aggressive" live music. Moshing usually happens in the center of the crowd, generally closer to the stage, in an area called the "pit". It is intended to be energetic and full of body contact."

When she goes into that first growl chorus, the way she struts on the stage is like a big cat stalking it's prey. It's sublime. The whole performance is mesmerizing.

Julia… I love to watch reaction videos and yet you are the only person I am subscribed to. Your insights are fantastic and your love of music is very prominent. I read somewhere that Tatiana suffers from Seasonal Affective Disorder and this song is her effort to bring attention to it. I know this reaction is over a year old but I’ve watched it again and again just cause I love how you are so moved by it.

Me going to my first concert I had the same reaction “Why is there a circle” 😂

“Maybe I like all the thngs.” Hilarious. I think you and your colleague should do the one take vocal performance of judgement and punishment together...

Oh my God, the bow. You stopped it before her bow. Talk about engagement, she owns them and then says “thank you, I’m done.” with that bow. Also, I watched a live stream with her and the bassist during quarantine and he was saying how she is actually a bit of an introvert 😳. Imagine that performance coming from someone who would rather not be around people. Wow!!!

Jinjer was the last band I saw before the shutdown . They are brilliant as a whole , Tati is exceptional. Enjoy your channel.

Tatiana, Dimash, Diana 😍 the greats of our time! I’m so glad I’m alive in this time period. Although it’s a little ruff out there in the world right now. Seeing them just makes it worth it! 💜💜💜💜

Devin Townsend "Kingdom" Time!!!

The circle is called a mosh pit, her growls are considered to be a vocal fry, fry scream, pulse register or a false chord. It comes from you closing your vocal folds and air flapping them sounding poppy or like a croak. It's pretty much like a whisper as you tighten your lower throat and force the air out so you are not technically using the chords. It's still impressive to see a woman do it and Tatiana has mastered it 200%. It doesn't take much to swap between regular singing and screaming, but you still need a good voice to swap into which she's mastered that 200% as well lol. I been getting pretty descent at them as I belt out Pisces at my steering wheel while driving. When you put that to a mic and add some reverb ect.. sounds bad ass.

every now and then you find a Unique Talent that will not be denied their spot in Music. Jinjer just need to the exposure. They have gotten it, but if they existed back in the big arena days, you'd be hearing about them for decades and to be honest, you just may will be hearing about them for that long. It's not over yet.

It really speaks volumes of your knowledge and musical IQ that you can deliver such an in-depth, objective analysis, although you're not in your comfort zone (in terms of this not being a genre/form you're familiar with). Kudos!

I can tell you from first hand: you feel the energy! Saw them last November as main act, they had three support acts which were not bad til really good - but even after the good it was like switching the lights from candle to stadium illumination from there first second on stage. Unbelievable!

"Why is there a circle?" That, my friend, is a metal phenomenon Called "the pit"..The pit is an undercurrent of the audience, a whirlpool of energy,which is channeled By the thrashing crowd..we listen to the ques in metal music,and when it moves us,we slam dance in a violent Swirling circle,bashing and crashing into each other to release energy.. Its alot of good,friendly violent fun!

Tatiana's use of the stage here is itself a masterclass. She's always moving like a playful cat/panther but here she's over the top with the frontwoman moves, camera play, engagement. And her band is like King Crimson good. They're just fantastic and their ability to shift dynamics with her is a big part of the appeal. Polyrhythms are definitely planned and yes the vocals and beats are syncopated. This band has jazz chops.

This is going to be epic

Great reaction !!! Love the appreciation of what Jinjer as a whole group can do!!! Shout out to Vlad, Roman, Eugene and Queen/Beast Mode Tatiana!!!! Welcome to the Jinjer Army !!! Next would be Teacher Teacher, Judgement (& Punishment)Tatiana's One take Performance, Retrospection, Cloud Factory Live performance, On the Top, Noah, Pit of Consciousness, Who's gonna be the One.

Yeah Tati is a boss. Even earlier Jinjer before she completely developed her voice she was killing it. Love this woman.

Tatiana is an incredibly talented, beautiful, gifted, powerful female artist, songwriter (her lyrics are actually incredible storytelling, with supernatural elements and fantasy, almost Tolkien like), singer, performer, and front woman killing it in a historically and overwhelmingly male dominated musical genre. She’s a bad ass. And hella empowering. The bands musicality and instrumentation is also phenomenal. They’re very tight and precise. They’re a great band. And Tatiana fronts it with total ease and hypnotic, engaging emotion and physicality.

You should react to "I speak Astronomy" and "Teacher Teacher". The lyrics are really worth reading them, same for "Perennial" and "Pisces" you already reacted to.

Julia, I have to say - you are one of the best reactors / analysts that I've come across. Your personality shines through and you yourself are engaging! I caught you as a result of me being a Jinjer fan, thus you being recommended and I'm glad you were as I've enjoyed your videos. Cheers from NY!~

I was there, it was amazing

I love how your mouth mimics hers as she delivers those sustained belts :) you can totally feel that you're deeply into her performance
