no joke Tauri, that last note might have been the biggest clean "flex" of the whole thing - the sustain and pitch consistency is actually much harder than doing vocal runs (as a singer). That said, his runs and dynamics in this definitely demonstrate big steps in his clean vocal progress! Love this guy :)
I think Will has been working on his cleans for quite some time. I think we probably owe a debt of thanks to Elizabeth Zharoff as well. Pretty sure she has been helping Will bring out his God Tier vocals.
This is really great obviously. Why? First off props to Sleep Token for creating this exceptional song. Next let's recognize that to cover it properly, even carbon copy it requires an extreme amount of natural talent and technique, of which Will has far more than an adequate amount. Finally, and this is most important, he added his own flair to it using his abilities, and that elevates it from a simple cover to something more. The song is extremely well done and so the reaction!
Best thing about the 2 covers I've heard of Will is that he adds his own flair to a song, instead of just giving you a copy of the original, he makes it his own, and adds a part of himself
so happy they are finally getting the recognition they deserve If you’re up for a challenge you should cover the new October Ends song Dark. The vocals on this one are impossible!
How’s Will gonna be like…… Hey Vessel you know the melody on that last chorus what if you did this ( proceeds to make up a new melody that’s even better).
I'm not a big Lorna Shore fan, but Will Ramos has a killer voice. Not knocking Lorna Shore, just not my thing is all. They're all incredibly talented. That was a killer cover.
I prefer wills to the original, it's a really good song and I love sleep tokens other songs namely Aqua Regia, but this one just hits different with the harsh vocals from will.
Please read the "more" and text on the original video. The video was not properly rendered posting to RU-vid so it looks like he is ahead in some parts. I'm tired of people critiquing him for that. #JustSayin
I appreciate Will's vocal abilities as much as anyone else, but there is a genuine question to be answered here. There is at least one point where it looks like he 'might' be miming, so asking the question seems fair to me. If the audio/video sync was lost briefly at that point, then why not delete that edit and re-render it so it's fully sync'd before posting? I don't believe he was miming, but I'd like to hear from Will (or the video engineer) about why it was released as it is?
William Ramos, born May 31 1994. You are hereby sentenced 10 years in prison for the possession of too much talent. Does the defendant have any objections?
I respect and appreciate the opinion of every listener, but for me personally, Mr. Ramos sang a cover of Sleep Token's songs twice better than the original
