      The thing is, every studio version of every singer you've ever heard is autotuned. When it's done right, you cant notice it. And no, you couldn't sound good with autotune, you have to be able to sing well for it to even be useful.
      The over-the-top, robotic sounding autotune is a stylistic choice. It's not supposed to trick you....

First of all, if every studio song an "artist" has is autotuned, then i'm sorry, he/she is not a singer, because you need to be TUNED to sing. Second of all, autotune was invented in 1997, so i don't know why you say that EVERY studio song is autotuned. And third, current pop music is full of singers that can't sing, but with a little too much of autotune and vocal effects they sound okay (if you ask me they still sound awful, but people seem to like it).

    • @rest_your_pretty_bones
      @rest_your_pretty_bones 2 개월 전 +1

      He also hits an off-key bend right at the beginning of the solo, but just kept bending it past the bad note (what Hendrix called "bending it into infinity") so that it didn't even sound like it was *supposed* to be a certain note, then he blazed through the rest of the solo. He noticed his mistake and figured out how to turn it into something even better within like 0.05 seconds, while performing live in front of a TV studio audience on a broadcast that millions would be watching, and was able to make it smooth as butter. I've played for 20+ years and hearing that moment got me so pumped haha. Great guitarist, great band, great song, and Glover... just no words for that guy's talent.

      Well, his falsetto actually sounds good. Many people try to sing falsetto and it sounds like they're stepping on the neck of an ostrich, so compared to songs where he's got a deeper, low-end drop to his voice, the fact that not only he can sing falsetto, but give every note that light, floating sort of feeling, that REAL soul sound, AND hit some pretty damn high notes, is very VERY impressive.

    • @redsock1298

      Have you ever heard Al Green or Sam Cooke? that's soul singing and that's some crazy good stuff. Nothing against Childish Gambino but to compare him to real soul singers is greatly under appreciating those who came before him. Like I said nothing against him, how often do you see where genre's even last long enough to be able to pass onto a equally talented individuals. I say that because Childish Gambino is not a soul singer that would happen to.
