These might not be as entertaining as your reaction videos, but I believe instructional videos like this are invaluable. I really appreciate that you're doing these as well.

I love your channel and you are probably the BEST voice teacher reactor I have seen on youtube. Your analysis are so in depth and well described or explained that I feel I learn more every time I watch one of your videos! Also, thank you so much for NOT dumbing down your analysis (sooo many vocal coaches do this on youtube and it makes me wonder if they have actually ever taken vocal lessons lol) and actually sharing your expertise with us! Please keep going! However, the only thing I would suggest is if you could please provide audio examples (or using your own voice) in order to better illustrate your point when necessary. For example, in this video, I would have loved to listen to the difference between mixed voice and non-mixed voice (if that even exist). :) and in one of your EXO videos you mentioned that they were using computers. Could you please one day make a video to explain how does computer help or interfere in live studio or live performances? What does the speakers or computers do for the singers voice, what could they do, and how do you notice when computers are being used? Im very intrigued by this as I know that voice in an acoustic setting sounds much difference than through speakers, but up to which point does the speakers/computers can change your voice? Thank you so much!! and Cheers!! I truly wish you success with this channel! =D

Everyone that's asking for a reaction go do it in another video, if you're gonna comment something make it about the video or if you just discovered his channel and like it and just wanna let him know, dont just throw a bunch of suggestions and without even watching the video and knowing what it's about, He'll feel like nobody cares about what he's teaching, when in reality many DO care. Sorry If I sounded a bit too harsh but please be more understanding.

i love this so much-- i have always been told that mixed voice is the area of your range that overlaps your chest and your head voice, or where the two registers "mix, " this makes so much more sense
i'm having a lot of "vocal problems" lately and your videos + research are helping me so much more than previous mis-instruction and stubborn teachers 😂😂

[ANewHuman]

I'm a singer with 10 years of experience and I've always thought head, chest and mixed voice MUST be more complicated than this. But if it's as simple as you say... I learned something new in the last five minutes! Thanks Sam!

You're a great instructor and I feel like I learn so much on every video I see of yours. Thank you. You're the best vocal coach on YT hands down.

[nuckingfuts]

So what exercises help you to get a mixed voice easier?

[anita_sri]

I had no clue that each voice was associated with a certain muscle! You really have a deep understanding of this and expressed it in a way I haven’t heard before, thank you for this video!

Cliche comment: I just found you channel. And I really love it! Even though I was interested because the "reacts to" I love the way you explain everything and how you teach something about it. I don't really know about voices, keys, colors or tones, but I love the diversity of techniques of singing, also love the way how honest you are and than you really are talking about singing no just jugging or watching what they doing like others. Please keep with you instructional videos.

Thanks for your lesons and reviews. It's great to finally found someone who explains, I'm really interested in this kind of topics and you just explain yourself so well, thanks for that <3

This video really smacked me in the face, and I dont know why not even my specialists could explain this to me, yet you did simply in this video in under two minutes. I had two operations, 3 weeks apart 11 years ago to remove a huge tumor in my neck. It turned out to be thyroid cancer and ended in me losing my thyroid altogether, and a blast of radiation for good measure. I have always loved to sing, but its been a huge struggle to even be able to sing to an enjoyable level again due to these two muscles that you speak of in this video. I went to lots of specialists, and only one of them said " your voice box sits quite high because of scarring" and that was ALL she said .. NOW, for the first time in 11 flipping years, i get it! so thank you !

I just discovered your channel and I’ve been scrolling through it for the past two hours lol. I love your reactions to different singers. I wish you’d do Floor Jansen from the finnish symphonic metal Nightwish. Maybe Ghost Love Schore or basically anything from their 2013 Wacken Open Air live. I think you’d like her! Anyways, keep up the fantastic work and good luck with the channel!

[elizabetherickson]

I just found your channel and I’ve wanted to work on my singing, I’m so excited I found this channel! I can’t wait to see more of your technique/teaching videos ❤️❤️❤️

[AndreaKawalina]

I love you so much! Always wanted to sing, but don't think are good enough, so seen this, makes me believe i can learn to sing. Thanks

[digindigin]

i was a bit confused as to what you meant by mixed voice in your reaction videos. thanks for explaining and so thoroughly too 💖💖

[sehunslines]

Omggg I've been wondering that for the longest time! I love the way you explain things!

[lillysorkin]

It’s so important to have a good mixed voice. I know lots of people who sound like two different people when singing

[grace]

I like how informative this is; i would love more instructional videos!
