I think Journey would say, Damn straight, man! As a fan I just want to put on a white shirt and vest and stand in the back and pretend to sing. Great Job guys!
i think the solo singer did good. i mean, we're used to hear steve perry, i assume, and no one does it better then perry. but he get a gold star for heart ^^
The best performance of Dont stop believing by a guy. Hands down. That is hella hard to do what he did. Because i have seen women do the solo. But your right xpowertumblerx he kind of like cracks his voice and goes flat at 3:21.
yeah but there not giants he is really short most of the time he's at like there crotch. thanks for the info by the way. I just wanted to see Anoop stuff and ended up watching like 2 hours of these dudes.
When I saw the Beelzebubs' performances, they totally reminded me of the Clefs.They both have the same vibe IMO--very high energy,very entertaining,and they gel great!
Really good performance. Backround vocals kind of picked up on the soloist a bit but he did well in compensating back up. Should probably do this song earlier in the set though, since the fatigue of the previous songs were catching up heh.
I'm with clairebug, he needs a little more work with his vocals for a song like this. It's not bad, but he does come off as yelling moreso than singing here and there.
Cut him a break. This was a live performance, one of mroe than a dozen songs that night. His voice was tired. Listen to it on the TIME OUT CD and you'll forget you heard this one. I just don't think there needs to be so much discussion about it.
Wow. That's such a hard song to cover because everybody knows it and it's a magnet to critiquing. Great job on the high notes dude, it gets hard after the first round of them. lol
Anyone that likes this song should pick up the BOCA (Best of College Acappella) 2008 album. It is the first track and studio quality. Awesome job guys : )
Anoop was already doing the solo for just about every other one of these guys' songs at that point, you've got to let other guys in the group get their chance to do a solo, no one wants to see the same guy do the solo song after song.
@Chachoondar. Not that I don't agree with you, maybe it would've been out of his range, but Anoop sang a part of these high notes on Idol, and they were great.
it would have been out of his range there are not many people that can hit these notes successfully and tastefully in the world. so David does a great job
@Hollygon92 I have to disagree with you there. If you have TRUE tenors singing high notes, they can classically sing the hell out of them. I'm blessed to be an accompanist for one, and his falsetto literally goes up to C#6. No exaggerations, and that's just warmed up.
This soloist sounds like a low tenor/high baritone voice, which makes this so difficult to sing. And this isn't a very difficult song. There are a lot of ostinatos and extras yes, but the core is maybe 5-7 chords.
Huh. I love the Clefs but I have to say, the soloist struggled with this one, especially the high notes. It's not horrible by any means, but not perfect either.
OK I just WATCHED GLEE AND THOUGHT OF CLEFHANGERS WHEN THEY SANG THIS SONG
THIS IS NOT CLEFHANGERS BEST BUT I THINK IF DAVID HALL WOULD SING IT, IT WOULD BE GREAT, SEAN CURRLIN CAN BUT I TIHKN DAVID HALL CAN ACE THIS SONG, HE HAS A BETTER RANGE THAN THIS ONE
they did very well at the beginning but the soloist really lost it at the end trying to hit the high notes...it is a little flattish and pitchy at sum points but on the whole it was really gud :)
I love this performance, both live and on "Time Out" - and I totally dig Anoop's air guitar...I've re-watched it a *ahem* few times because I was so amazed that he can make that sound...
This was definitely good, but I still missed the two one-upped high parts of the "peopaahh-Ahhh-AHHH!" that the lead guy kept on one note (that he sounded he was really straining for).
just to be clear u cant really teach some 1 how to sing they have to have the ability to sing and the teacher can help improve parts but thats cool just clarifying sorry
lol ! imagine the look on kara's face if anoop's "frat boy friends" jumped up on stage from the audience and sang ! they totally should've done that ! ;D
they shoulda totally done that!! they should do that sometime just to make her eat her words!! anyone notice that Anoop apologized, when he didnt even need to, and there's been no mention whether Kara has or not??
darn..u r so right i want the Kara woman to eat her words...i hope she feels bad after she said that to Anoop on National TV...i mean seriously..Anoop shud answer to ryans question ...ugh i hate that Kara BitchioGuardi
wow ! they sang this as their group performance song on american idol ! i couldn't help smiling the whole time hoping anoop would do the air guitar like in this video - which of course unfortunately he didn't.. but it was a cute performance though.. :)
Yes, that's the same Anoop. I have a playlist on this channel of all the songs Anoop was the soloist for while he was in the Clef Hangers. Take a look! Make SURE you watch The Only One For Me, Kiss Kiss, I'll Make Love To You, Sexy Love - then contact Idol judeg Kara DioGuardi and inform her she is a Whack Job for her comments last night!! :-)
Yes! These guys are amazing. It just shows how much of a bimbo Kara DioGuardi is! These "frat boys" could out-sing any loser she writes songs for! It just shows how idiotic Hollywood really is! She needs to leave the show . . . and take Ryan Seacrest with her!
