Vocal Coach reacts to Billie Eilish (& Finneas) - When The Party's Over (Live) 

I'm always amazed by people who say that Billie Eilish doesn't touch them. How can a beating heart listen to this song especially - and not start bleeding? I am 60 years old and I started to listen actively to music in 1971. Billie Eilish is on par with the greats from that era who are now classics.

I love how you introduced Finneas as well in the title haha he deserves it

This song gives me goosebumps, sad and comforting at the same time. Nice analysis of the song.

This song brings me to tears every time.

This is easily one of the most beautiful songs written in this decade imo

i am so glad you covered this performance. I've been watching this one for years as it is one of my favorite Billie live moments...and I ALWAYS noticed how she cuts off the melodic part of those high notes and just allows breath to come through... and I always knew it was intentional for the emotional impact. It's actually quite amazing.

It's worth mentioning that live performances on Howard Stern occour around 8-9 AM. Not easy for a vocalist at all.

She focuses hugely on technique, and her vocal diction is incredible.

1:31 her voice sounds high and low all at the same time. It truly is amazing!

Some of Billie’s songs just have me on the floor contemplating life 😂

I adore her I think her voice and her songs are amazing. The correct technique doesn't matter if your voice resonates so much with people imo. I'm 49 and an amateur choir singer - not a teenager, unfortunately!! Her songs mean so much to me; they feel like they are from someone who has lived a whole life and had similar deep insecurities as well as love, lust, loss and the rest!

I always show these acoustic versions to people that believe she's not a good singer...

She really does have a great voice and knows how to be evocative with it. Song recommendation for a reaction: Hallelujah by Aurelio Voltaire, the live version.

She’s a beautiful and talented singer! I really appreciate you doing such an in-depth reaction….she’s deserving for sure 🙏🏻

I like that her technique borrows from classic jazz vocals. It's so old it seems fresh.

People criticize the singing all the time but it's one of those, "if ya know, ya know". She is really good about not being a "pop artist". She knows what she is doing. It takes a lot of control to do what she does.

It's so obvious to me that she's a talented singer. All one need do is listen to a few of her songs to see how many different ways she conveys the emotion of a song, and all of them are excellent.

I discovered Billie Eilish a couple of years ago. At that time, her name was all over the place, but I thought it might just another one of those younger female pop singers with a good but “standardized” voice singing catchy but dull pop songs. However, then I listen to one of her songs for the first time, and I instantly liked it. What makes her quality for me is that she is so good at what she does, and she does what she likes, and not what the music industry demands at the moment. This combination of quality and authenticity and passion is what makes artists great for me.

Awesome video!

Love this song Thanks for your channel You are awesome

I love them so much; just when you start doubting that true artists can emerge in the pop world, there they are, like shining little diamonds in the night.

I love this Billie Eilish song beautifull very beautifull song . Thank you Beth ❤❤😍😍

You are the best out there!

Seems I'm not the only one that got lost at the end of the performance and felt that teary-eye sensation in the back of my throat (if that makes sense)! haha Great reaction as always, Beth!

I love her voice

She got a amazing voice. I got a proposal for a reaction. Hellsongs: Run to the hills (Iron maiden cover)

Beautiful. You made me appreciate her more.

you've got to react to billie singing Happier Than Ever live on The Tonight Show

I don't really understand all of her criticisms.... Sure she prefers to sing quiet, but it's like you said after her first line, there's SO much going on in her voice. Her raw emotion and sheer creative talent for song writing are glaringly obvious to me.

Thanks for breaking this down. I've really liked your videos in the past. :) Billie Eilish is not a great singer from a trained technical perspective, but she more than makes up for it through a really strong intuitive musical sense. I feel like she probably spent a lot more time listening and copying techniques from her favourite singers and figuring out her own style intuitively than practicing scales or doing physical vocal exercises. Training really helps you sustain your voice and achieve what you want as a singer more easily, which is why it's good to practice these kinds of technical exercises. But what I think Billie Eilish understands is that music is about connecting with people emotionally, and her ability to do that (and I mean REALLY do that) separates her from most technically proficient singers. I could pick Billie Eilish out a group of 100 female vocalists, even those trying to clone her. When that uniqueness is combined with also being an unusually subtle and effective songwriter, you really have something.

WOW YOUR KNOWLEDGE IS SUPERB

Reminds me of The pain of loving you - by Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, Emmylou Harris

Oh my Lord you look pretty in that color.

I'd love to hear you react to a song by Kaleo! The lead singer has such a captivating voice, plus their live recordings are done in incredible locations!

Hello, I have to listen to Abel Pintos reciting the song El Antigal in the unique stadium of La Plata, he does half a cappella and then with melody but he will pleasantly surprise you, greetings from Córdoba Argentina

I started a comment and it disappeared! I am enamored with Billie - I love her voice, their songs, and I am a true, diehard fan - but when I listen to Haley Reinhart sing "Creep" for (PMJ) that blows me way, or Ariana Grande with Abel singing "Save Your Tears" - her voice is beautiful; I want Billie to do more than 1 big note "die" in "No Time to Die", but even so she captivates me - I know the word is overused - but some of it is authenticity ( you get what you see - she is truly sharing a deep part of herself ). Just a Reminder, FINNEAS wrote this song (and Ocean Eyes ). Here's one to think about [ partly because of the song and partly because she is Telly Savalas's daughter. ] PMJ, featuring Ariana Savalas doing Billie's "Bad Guy" in a Tango style. I think it's wonderful #BillieEilish #BadGuy #Cover

I did comment 9 months ago, but I watched this again and I really like your review/analysis. This is a recommendation - Tristan Parades did a very nice review of Billie singing Danny Elfmans "Sallys Song" from "The Nightmare before Christmas" - it presents a different and - I believe - very impressive example of Billie's singing and versatility. It's from October 29, 2021 - Tristan added another song, only 1 minute long where she sings with Danny Elfman [ one channel is "lucid" ]. I would love to see you react to/review it. But even if you didn't, I believe you would really enjoy it. Billie's stage presence is something special for that show. [As you know, several other famous artists covered that song - Amy Lee, Catherine O'Hara and Helena Bonham Carter. I loved Billie's. P.S. I'm 68 and haven't been to a concert in over 40 years - on March 15, 2022 I went to Billie's concert at the Xcel Energy Center in St. Paul, MN - it was fantastic; often moving this grown man to tears.

Hi Beth. Your voice is great. Learn from your videos. No reason you can't expand.

she mentioned that it was early in the morning on top of the song being extremely difficult to sing

I found a lot of hidden gems from Billie.

YOOO!!!! Please do a reaction to Nile - Sarcophagus!!! They’re in my top 3 favorite metal bands of all time. Incredible Egyptian Death Metal. Everything about this song and music video is incredible. All of their songs tell some kind of story about ancient Egypt.

Beth hermosa 😘😍

Please Beth, react to Godspeed with James Blake, that song is pure love... also his cover of this one.

Would be also interesting to have a review of a Soap&Skin song 😉

Please review her latest song Lost Cause!

Hi love your reactions and analysis, I made a vocal battle between Rita Ora vs Dua Lipa. It's in a good format of ten rounds and I spent time getting good clips that show various techniques. Hope u can react :)

Other important artists to react to: Franco Simone ("Paisaje" or "Tú, siempre tú") and Manolo Galván ("Deja de llorar" or "Te quise te quiero y te querré").

it would be wonderful if you would consider recording the reaction to nothing but thieves are definitely underrated

Nothing and I mean nothing should happen of consequence before 8am. If I remember this was around 7am. And she’s from California and Howard’s studio is in New York. This is impossible. I love every note of this.

The Avett Brothers - Ballad of Love and Hate (live)

Hey Beth, could you react to Sleep Token - Blood Sport (From the Room Below)? It might be the best vocal performance I've heard in my life.

Please react to Gabriel Henrique singing "I Have Nothing" please! You'll be amazed!

Even as a 2m tall, fully inked construction worker, I can't get in my head how you can not adore her voice and their songwriting. The way she breathes and the tone of her voice feels so real, so unfitting to pop music. I just don't get the hate for her. Yeah, some of her fans are whiney teeny girls, but whatever, these girls will frow out of their phases too and nobody will remember. Hope she has a long career infront of her.

Please react to the artist Elsiane

Pls react Ernie zakri -gundah (AJL35)

you HAVE to react to Lzzy Hale doing She Talks to Angels ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-T855_CiTLa4.html

If we went back to the 90's when granmys were still given to the best artist of that time period. How is it that a heavily effects imbued billie ellish or Olivia Rodrigo have a grammy period? Just because they are popular? When Brittney spears first came out with “baby one more time.” It was phenomenon, even larger then “bad guy”. But she wasn't given a grammy for her popularity. How is it that Mariah and Celine dion have only 5 grammys. But billie already has 8 of them in her 3rd year. It is because of it being rigged. How does Beyonce have more grammys then Whitney Houston? Hell even Blue Ivy has one. Thetr are legendary artists who havent won a single grammy. It really is a fix, the younger fans won't ever see it. But if we award artists based on complete and utter talent. Billie may get a few MTV awards. But a grammy sweep? It comes down to her manager campaigning for her. If everyone around the world voted on who gets what. We would see a lot of talented singers not known to the current generation. Coming out of nowhere to claim the wins. I do not much care for her music. I believe most anyone reading this comment can sing like her with proper training. Just get you a vocal coach and priducer/ song writer and you are there. Mainstream does not equate to talent. This is harsh I know. A lot of stans will not like this assessment. But I implore you to explore the past in musical history. How can a masterpiece like stairway to heaven or bohemian rhapsody compare to “all I ever wanted” or “drivers license”? From a vocalist stand point. If you strip away all the effects and instrumentals. Those with a very keen ear would wonder what is so special about this cookie cutter artist. Olivia and Billie are very popular and came from wealth. Their experiences are inauthentic and it is the crazed fans acting like they are greater than the Beatles or Michael Jackson.

Wow I never thought of her as ASMR. Perhaps you should listen to kharungbin,(may have spelled that wrong). Not much vocals, this is just a suggestion for you.

First.

I just can't understand her popularity. 🤔 Much less Grammys

Too much comment again. Let the song go longer and then comment.

I cannot respect the whisper singing. After everything you've heard and reviewed. You know she wouldn't make it in an audition. Give me effects and vocal echo. I'll sell a CD...

she sounds a bit like Amy Winehouse.

🤢🤢🤢🤢🤮

Be quiet plz

She is very good at singing very slow very controlled songs her live performances are very bad usually watching her ocean eyes live is astoundingly bad

I cannot stand her voice. Some of her songs are catchy in terms of melody and rhythm, but I can't stand her voice though. Baffles me that she's so popular to be honest.
