Vocal Coach Reacts (FINALLY!) to Postmodern Jukebox ft. Haley Reinhart - Creep (Radiohead Cover)

I know, I know... how is it possible that I have not seen this performance yet!? If it helps, by the time this video posts I'm sure I'll have watched Haley Reinhart sing Creep a dozen more times. Here is my reaction to her and Postmodern Jukebox and their cover of Radiohead's Creep.

This is the first and only take they did.
This version was initially made for another singer but Haley loved it so much that she played around with it by herself. After a long day of recording during a day off during their tour Scott asked if she wanted to give it a try. She hesitated because her voice was pretty tired ar that point but he convinced her... And after that first take he said there was absolutely no need to do another. And no wonder because that... That's magic!

As I have stated before . This is arguably one of the greatest performance ever recorded.

[williamroop]

It's almost as if someone took Betty Boop and combined her with Jessica Rabbit... This takes the whole style of music back to the roaring 20's. Haley and PMJ are MAGIC together.

I had never heard her before I saw this for the first time. Having no other context, when I saw comments about how she didn't win American Idol, I figured the judges had all clearly lost their minds. I have exactly the same experience listening to this as I do when I listen to some of the greatest violinists, and pianists in the world. It's the equivalent of 'kid in a candy store' for music geeks. So many technical details to dissect and analyze.

Filmed in black and white was a perfect choice. Haley Reinhart's vocals add all the color I can manage. WOW! What a performance.

[kaanaktas]

I've listened for thousand times and will never get bored. She creates tones according to the character she wants to be and I think there are endless options. This performance is proof of the very different performances she will make from now on. ❤

[pierremasse]

she was really feeling it. She used her entire body to express the lyrics. You were a treat to watch too.

[wirelesmike]

"I need to watch that a million times over". Yeah, I have, and it still gets me every single time. I wish her originals had that kind of soul. Not that I don't like her original music, but, there aren't many people in all of musical history who can pull off that 1930s jazz vocal language the way she can. This, and the other songs she did with PMJ were lightning in a bottle. They are the highest viewed videos out of all of their others for a reason. This collaboration was pure sonic magic. I only wish it had lasted longer.

[nickerpsg]

Check out her other PMJ performances..."Seven Nation Army"; "Habit"; "Don't Speak"; "All About The Bass"; "Black Hole Sun"; plus some of her own videos..."Don't Know How to Love You"; "Better"; and the list goes on. IMO, she's the most talented female artist on the Planet...Angelina Jordan and others are great, but her versatility really outshines them all !!

A masterclass in how to utilize every vocal technique known to man in under six minutes. She is amazing.

[dragana.kuzmanovic]

I'm blown away by this performance everytime and I listened to it gazillion times. This is such a vocal masterclass, she did so many different things in one song that some singers don't do in their whole career 😄

[AzaleaLala]

I discovered Haley not to long ago here on youtube. Did not know she was on American Idol because I don't watch it. Her voice is amazing! I love her cover of Creep and she does two other covers which are equally amazing. "Seven Nation Army" and "Black Hole Sun".

[marvinboswell]

Haley is the best unknown artist in the world, she has a new album out and its great, her PMJ Cover of don't speak is a sweat performance .enjoyed your reaction to this song thumbs up 👍

[davidphillips]

Total performance, visually, vocally, the whole package. Here Haley demonstrates 14 of the 9 human vocal techniques. Her ability to switch between that grunge and pure clarity is astonishing. Loved that and the reaction!!

[kennymonty]

Her voice is absolutely perfect. I am sure they don't have better in heaven.

[Uncle_T]

This is a purely amazing version, she manages to elevate this song 1000% to sheer perfection. I've listened to it at least 500 times by now and will continue to listen to it for the rest of my days I'm sure.

[garrygrasinski]

The whole other thing here is that she captivates us completely with a single camera angle...no flashy cuts and camera moves or anything other than Haley's singing and exquisite movement. Incredible performance.

[queefreak]

Just saw Haley perform at the Troubadour in L.A. a few weeks ago. She's better than ever. I call her the Swiss Army Knife of vocalists. There's literally nothing she can't sing and be fantastic at it.

[georgelynch]

That was years ago, she was a young lady back then. She is now in the league of the torch bearers from the past, a talented woman moving forward as she wants and on her own terms. Her influence is already showing up in many aspiring artist today.

[nightshade]

Her cover of White Rabbit by Jefferson Airplane is one of my favourite covers she has done. She really nailed the feel that Grace Slick puts into the song while also making it her own.
