I hope you find this as enjoyable as I did.

Proving that you can't believe what you are hearing, did anyone read where he said he actually sang this 7 semitones lower, and then it was pitched up to sound like it does? ...
I would have liked to hear his original recording ...

I heard him say he cheated, but not how. He has a bunch of other covers on YouTube as well. I’ll have to check them out.

Wonder what voice transposer he is using...it sounds pretty darn good if he’s transposing it 7 half steps.

JM

I was thinking the same thing ...

It appears, after doing some research, that the dude can sing...actually quite well. He does a number of karaoke covers with some sung in a lower register.

Unfortunately, his credibility becomes questionable when he admits to cheating... As Donny so poignantly pointed out.

JM

Well, at least this guy admitted it from the outset ...

But he would have had more credibility if he had said something like "I'm going to show you what can be done with the So and So vocal transposer" ...

PS: He goes under the you tube name "Truth Surge" ... ironic !!!

Good call Tony🤥

We all use technology to sound better.

We use Vocal Harmony, equilization, reverb, transpose button, styles, backing tracks, midis...….etc.

I don't tell my audience that wasn't a real sax playing, and I had to transpose the song because the singer couldn't sing it in the original key, and that wasn't really me harmonizing with her, etc.

The guy did a great job, was upfront. His mistake was using the word "cheating". He can sing the song, but not in the original key.


He did a great job using "the tools".


With social media people just look for things to criticize.

You got to accentuate the positive. Eliminate the negative.

Thanks for your insight Jerry. It’s easy to become cynical in this high tech world we live in.
The fact that this guy puts himself out there and has a following on YouTube says something.
