Goodnight Sweetheart (Goodnite) - A CAPPELLA barbershop multitrack tag

[EmmerzColor]

I love listening to this song before bed <3

[96staffordm]

Brilliant voice pal. Well done.

[geowilly2000]

hey how do u  do the split screen thing?

[julesreuter12]

ohhhhhhhhhhh too cute

[geowilly2000]

sweet



[Tyuo2010]

what is the time signature is this in? mesg me will yea please? thanks man!

[trudbol]

@Tyuo2010 It's 4/4, nothing special. ;-)

[Tyuo2010]

@trudbol at the beginning, the bass has the do do do's, are those pick ups into the song?

[RinzeYtsma]

@trudbol it's 12/8...

[daisyloveism]

I love your voice! I wish you would record the whole song!!! I love it!!!

[MAPG888]

DUDE CAN YOU MAKE A FULL VERSION OF THIS!? IT'S MY GRANDFATHER'S FAVE!!! I WANT THIS FOR HIS B-DAY PRESENT!

[trudbol]

@MAPG888 Yes, I make custom song requests and I'll be happy to do this one, sure. Please email me at jneel@free.fr and we'll work out the details.

[susidieandere]

This is my favourite song from you. Sooo lovely!

[trudbol]

@susidieandere Thanks! ;-)

[ElectricGuitarManPL]

Is it Chordettes'? Maybe you shall sing 'Mr Sandman' :)

[trudbol]

@ElectricGuitarManPL Yeah, it's a nice piece, but pretty hard to do as a multitrack because of the extremely tight timing. I usually prefer homophonic arrangements, which are much easier to sing layer by layer. ;-)

[ElectricGuitarManPL]

@trudbol

anyway, this is fantastic and I will always repeat it! You should start doing the career!

[TravelByTARDIS11]

So I've always loved this style of music. After I hear stuff like this, I feel like today's music industry has it wrong - I'd love to hear this on the radio. Sometimes I feel like an old soul (when it comes to music). Keep it up! I'm eagerly awaiting a full version of this song! *fingers crossed* :D

[trudbol]

@TravelByTARDIS11 Thanks! ;-)

[Jackspadeproductions]

What mic did you use? I have a guitar hero one but X.D I need one with good quality. My voice isn't to great but it can work for this purpose. :P

[trudbol]

@Jackspadeproductions I have a ZoomH4n.

[coninio98]

what software do you use to put it all together? Its pretty cool! :)

[trudbol]

@coninio98 I use Sony Vegas Pro 9.

[DrPianoMan74]

I will pay you to sing the whole song. It's one of my all time favorite barbershop songs and you, by far, do it the best out of any other..ehm..."group" on youtube.

[trudbol]

@DrPianoMan74 I make custom song requests and I'll be happy to do this one, sure. Please email me at jneel@free.fr with your ideas. Cheers ;-)

[apetrowsky1]

Hey! that wasn't very long...

[trudbol]

@apetrowsky1 Just hit "play" again and I'll sing some more. ;-)

[922Thumper]

@trudbol thank you so much :)

[922Thumper]

I really love this today is my birthday and already i feel like cow poo. I love this song and you just... REALLY made my day today, your awesome :)

[trudbol]

@922Thumper Happy birthday to you! I also sang a 4-part harmony to the "Happy Birthday" song (just look-up "happy birthday trudbol" and you'll find it). Cheers ;-)

[Sarabknurrgahn]

Ich find einfach nur toll!

[LetsTanInJapan]

I always loved listening to you sing this song! So I was so happy when I was playing Mafia II and heard someone start singing it; I was trying to recreate singing it four part barbershop... I'll just let you be the one to sing it from now on.

[ESHbyESH]

Short but sweet

[theEumenides]

My mom would sing that to us before bedtime. That brought back some lovely memories, as well as slight pangs of nostalgia.

[LawdMyEyes]

That was cute... and awesome. Liked and favorited.

[simonspics1]

What a sweet little ditty! Cool!

[tigerlady36]

AWESOME JOB! EVERYONE--vote Julien KING of the WEBBBB! Hurry! He has a chance to win $ to bring us more fantastic music!!!! Click on the box in his video!

[coolslyfox123]

for how short it is…it's AWESOME!

[GranddaughterCoyote]

it's like you hair has a personality for every part. XDD

[trudbol]

@GranddaughterCoyote Indeed. Would you believe it was just a bad hair day, nothing more? LOL

[GranddaughterCoyote]

@trudbol possibly, hahaha. But still, your hair is awesome.

[peeps741]

ho c'est tellement harmonieux ! mais que c'est génial quoi :D

[edconcarni]

very very good

[Tyuo2010]

in your opinion in a barbersop, whos the most important part?

[trudbol]

@Tyuo2010 It depends on the objective: I guess it's the lead and the bass that the audience hears the most and remembers, perhaps the tenor at the end if there's a high note. But in terms of blend, it's the baritone I prefer, because nobody knows he's there yet he creates the magic, kind of like a goal keeper in soccer, you only notice him when he's not there or doing a poor job. ;-)

[HackDiesel13]

@trudbol As a former keeper and avid fan of your music, that was amazingly well-said. :)

[suegirl4444]

That was really nice. But, I wanted more, at least one more verse.

[TheMekoki]

This video has one big fault: it´s tooooo short. My finger is tired of pressing the repeat button. :-(

coudn´t you sing it again in full length????

[MerryMilkmaid]

I love this! I really wish you would do the full length song. I'm always so disappointed that it ends so quickly. If you made a CD I would buy it.

[trudbol]

@MerryMilkmaid Thank you! I actually do have a CD. Just drop me a line and I'll give you the details. I also have a few singles on iTunes (just look for "trudbol" and you'll find me). Cheers ;-)

[trudbol]

@dvessesca J'utilise Sony Vegas Pro. ;-)

[oxXAjaRaeXxo]

Marry me? -.-

[trudbol]

@oxXAjaRaeXxo Sure! Where do you live? ;-p

[oxXAjaRaeXxo]

@trudbol Florida!!(;

[LabakiTurbo]

2 people have insomnia.

[liveyourlifeforJC]

you pick the best songs! what you should do is write some of your own songs in this style and make an album, it fits you so well! and then we might actually have some decent pop music (:

[trudbol]

@liveyourlifeforJC Thank you very much for the nice comment. I'd love to learn to arrange more. It's already a lot of work to put these videos together on one's own you know. You cna show your support for my work by sharing this video with your friends and by purchasing my single on iTunes (just type "trudbol" in the iTunes search engine). Cheers ;-)

[GranddaughterCoyote]

If there were more people like you entering competitions like American Idol, we wouldn't have all these pointless contestants who never do anything after they win. Like frikkin' SCOTTY.

Get an album out there, man! Bring the Barber Shop Quartet back and give the Oldies what they deserve! WE NEED IT DX

[trudbol]

@GranddaughterCoyote Thanks! I have a few Barbershop singles available on iTunes now (the links are in the left banner of my channel page), and a BIG "donate" button too, if you wish to show your support for my work. Cheers ;-)

[rubantin]

I've done tracks of myself.. It is a blast. But... you know what you should do? Keep your bloopers for a blooper video...

[peaceternally]

um, are you married?

[trudbol]

@peaceternally Haha! I'm flattered you ask! Cheers ;-)

[Marieannification]

Haha It seems like you're quick the...one-man-quartet-version-­of-a-rock-star

Glad you got rid of the hair from the "Baby on board" era awesome songs still though! But how are the chicks gonna know how hot your singing is under that hair!! You look great now!

Keep on Rockin!

[dalebethune]

dude this is my favorite video if you have time can do more of the song

[trudbol]

@dalebethune Thanks. Yeah, it's on my task list, I just have lots of other projects to finish-up first, but I'll get to it. ;-)

[giogio1905]

this is so cool :D

[trudbol]

@giogio1905 Thanks! Do share my video with friends if you can, I'd appreciate it! ;-)

[omifriggingosh]

After seeing a few videos I gotta say I'm so jealous.

You're a rock star, guy!

I wish I could sing bass. Maybe every now and then out of nowhere I'll be able to hit those low notes, and it surprises me. Lol :p But generally I'm doomed to never be my own one man barbershop quartet... Then again my singing career is limited to the shower.

Anyway, keep up the awesome work, and I'm totally waiting for the full version of this! :)

[ungravitch]

very cool!! too bad you didnt finished

[NickMadrone]

spot on. well done dapper lad.

[DatKleinChaos]

That's so harmonically <3

You have a really really really great voice

[tigerdiscos]

Please please do a full version of this song :)

[jwrathall]

Hey Julien. I'm from Sydney, and have just discovered you, and am very impressed. You have inspired me to do some of my own barbershop multi's. I gave Baby on Board a go. My microphone sucks though, and I was wondering what your setup is?

Also, I'm not religious, but some of your German songs make me think you could do some amazing hymns. Have you heard "Abide With Me"? You could kick it's ass.

Keep it up. You're an inspiration!

[lovedapizza1]

i looovveee this my heart flutterd and i intently added it to my faves thank you for makeing my world a little brigher <3

[Sashova]

Why did you not continue the song? There's more to it.

[trudbol]

@Sashova Yes I know, it's just a tag I did, as it says in the description.

[trudbol]

@aimfreak01 I do, you just don't see it on YouTube. I also have an audio album and audio learning tracks for sale, if you are interested. ;-)

[trudbol]

@aimfreak01 What do you mean?

[trudbol]

@SIMPLEman612 Are all your jokes about the 4 faces? How about a word for the music?

[NiamhSByrne]

aw i wish you did the whole song :) its so good..great job :D

[Goibniu001]

OK...THAT was cool.

[trudbol]

@Goibniu001 Thanks! ;-)

[kowalskithepengui]

"If you want a job done well, do it yourself" There is now no excuse after seeing you well made videos. I have taken a sudden liking to this sort of music, once again!

[trudbol]

@kowalskithepengui Thank you! Glad you enjoy my one man a cappella quartet! Cheers

[KirinCZ]

amazig work! ...but I am quite worried about that is it only tag...make that full song, because u have amazing voice and rythm:-)

[trudbol]

@KirinCZ Thank you! Yes, I plan on recording the full song, I just have many other projects going on at the moment, but I will definitely get to it. ;-)

[AdMeliora1]

Hello, it's me again on, what must be my 10,000 view of this song. I don't know what it is but this video is absolutely magic to me!

[trudbol]

@AdMeliora1 Haha! Always a pleasure. ;-)

[grega1972]

NOT !

[bsa139]

The only thing I don't like about this is that it's too short. You are really good and you should sing the entire song

[trudbol]

@bsa139 Thanks! Yes, I get that comment a lot (about it being to short), and I plan on re-singing it completely, now that I have better equipment. I just have a lot on my plate at the moment, but I'll get there. Stay tuned! ;-)

[bsa139]

@trudbol Good to hear :D

[rkmugen]

@trudbol FINALLY! Can't wait!

[Oshunsprite]

gosh, you're swell!

[trudbol]

@Oshunsprite Thank you! Glad you enjoy my music. ;-)

[Janne606]

@Oshunsprite You've got a amazing voise...

[Janne606]

You've got a amazing voise...

[Lalaspazz]

Yes, pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeas­e record the full song!! This is awesome!! ;0)

[trudbol]

@Lalaspazz Thanks! Yes, I'll do that in the future, I just have many other ongoing projects at the moment. This song is on my to do list! ;-)

[DaintyDollyz]

HAVE MY BABIES, PRETTY PLEASE. :c

[trudbol]

@DaintyDollyz Wow! Can't believe I missed your comment! I'm flattered! ;-)

[Hennifly]

Whaa, I just pressed the "repeat" button and listened to it for nearly 2 hours! I really love it, it makes me smile and you did a wonderful record! =)

[trudbol]

@Hennifly Thanks! Ah, so it was you! I was wondering where I was getting this extra traffic from. ;-)

[cdciam09]

i love this song! and you sing it to perfection!

[trudbol]

@cdciam09 Thanks! Glad you enjoyed the show! ;-)

[OutOfaBlueSky]

the harmony, is quite tight. Hats off to you, Trudbol. Is that bass natural or dropped with Audacity?

[trudbol]

@OutOfaBlueSky Thanks! No it's all "natural", meaning I didn't pitch correct it. I did apply some EQing, by boosting the fundamental frequencies on the bass track. I also didn't record the tracks the same day and had a deeper voice for the low ones. ;-)

[thatoneasiankid]

PLEAASSEEE record the full song!!! This isn't long enough to fulfill how many times I've listened to it!

[ganthonyvr]

how did u split the screen in four??? wat is dat called?

[trudbol]

@ganthonyvr It's called split screen. You'll find tutorial videos for this on YouTube, it's very easy with "Sony Vegas" video editing programs. Cheers

[ganthonyvr]

how did u do that?? what program or software did u use?? it was fantastic i bet it took a long time just to get that much done

[trudbol]

@ganthonyvr Thanks! I used Audacity and Sony Vegas Pro.

Check out my channel for lots more of these if you like. Cheers

[ggglllllll]

Try your hand at if ever I would leave you... forget who sings it lol.

[silkie09]

Wayyyy to short! Pleeeease make a longer version, this is too beautiful to be so short!

[nrossi12811]

Again, Again!

[DJalexC808]

do star wars XD that would be nice :)

[ElectricGuitarManPL]

Wow this is the early doo wop.

It reminds me 'Mr Sandman' by The Chordettes!

[KatieChords]

Wow this is so clever! I'm impressed :)

Do you do requests? :P

[trudbol]

@KatieChords Thank you! Sure, I can take a request, but please keep in mind these songs take time to prepare and my hands are already full, so I hope you're a little patient! ;-) I'll also need the sheet music for the song suggestion. Cheers and thanks for watching!

[BunnyRabbit215]

they all have great voices! the harmony is amazing! :)

[thatoneasiankid]

SO CUTE. I wish it was longer!

[ivondezon]

well done!

[trudbol]

@ivondezon Thank you! Cheers

[TR4VI5]

EPIC !!!

[trudbol]

@TR4VI5 Thanks, glad you enjoyed it! have a look at my other a cappella productions too! Cheers

[PianoNoobTube]

Killer bass!

[trudbol]

@PianoNoobTube Thanks! I'm more of a frustrated tenor, so I your kind words are appreciated! ;-)

[CataclysmicStar]

I adore you. :)

[trudbol]

@CataclysmicStar Which one? ;-)

[CataclysmicStar]

@trudbol All of you. :D

[trudbol]

@CataclysmicStar We're flattered! ;-)

[aylinpoell]

i love your voice!!

[trudbol]

@aylinpoell Thanks! Check out my channel for more a cappella!

[chunksthemonkey1]

I also love the large assortment of hairstyles you have ^_^

[trudbol]

@chunksthemonkey1 I try, I try! ;-)

[chunksthemonkey1]

I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS!!! IT SOUNDS SO GOOD!!! PLEASE MAKE A FULL VERSION OF IT!!!

[trudbol]

@chunksthemonkey1 Haha, sorry ... and thanks! Yes, I plan to sing the whole tune. I just have lots of other songs I'd like to do as well, but I'll do a full version of this one for sure. Cheers and thanks for commenting.

[trlkly]

I just love your old timey style. I'm pretty sure if most people heard this, they'd think this was an original form a era gone by.

Is it your goal to revive this older barbershop style, or is it just how you happen to sing?

[trudbol]

@trlkly Thank you! Yes, I really like old school barbershop, with its simple, catchy tunes and rich, full voices. Modern barbershop is a lot of screaming that just busts my ears, it seems to focus too much on pitch rather than tone quality and expressing emotions. So I'm really flattered you feel I'm into this style of music, because you're on the spot! Cheers and thanks for watching and commenting.

[trlkly]

@trudbol Glad of it.

Would you mind if I ask how you learned to do the tenor like that? That's the part that sounds so old-timey. The only time I hear that type of tenor nowadays is if I'm watching William Frawley (Fred Mertz) sing on I Love Lucy on TVLand.

It's a type of voice I've always been fascinated by. It has both a kind of (for lack of a better word) whiny sound--which would normally be bad--yet it sounds so warm and lush.

[trudbol]

@trlkly I'm not sure In understand what you mean by "whiny". I am not trying to sing in a certain way, I just sing with my normal voice. It so happens that I'm a tenor, so perhaps you hear that voice more distinctly than the other three. What I like about old-school barbershop is that the singers had lyrically trained voices, with vibrato, deep and high frequencies, and a very recognizable tone of voice. Modern barbershop groups all sound the same to me : pitch perfect, screamy and very tense.

[trlkly]

@trudbol I can think of two ways of explaining it. One is that your vocal placement is further forward, into the mask, if you must. As you pointed out, it has a lot of high resonances. Your upper formants are very pronounced.

Another might be to compare to other instruments. A clarinet, or even an oboe if you want to go too far, has a "whinier' sound, while a trumpet has a darker sound--unless you put a mute on it, which brightens the sound back up.

Modern singing seems darker all around.

[trudbol]

@trlkly I see what you mean and I agree, I really sing too much in my mouth and don't leave room for resonance in my pharynx. I just started taking vocal lessons and am learning to place my larynx appropriately to get a deeper more relaxed sound, but there's a long a way to go still. I can hear the difference between my old "OO" vowel and the new one. It's hard to learn and perform at the same time, but I'll get there. Thanks for your feedback! Cheers

[trlkly]

@trudbol The thing is, I like that sound. As long as it isn't hurting your voice, I hope you keep the ability to sing in that manner. The best singers can change the color of their sound on a whim.

You honestly sound like the barbershops of old. And I didn't hear of any of them losing their voice over it or anything.

[bjkatt7]

Aw how cute

[MegaLucuma]

i've just shared this on my fb ! :) zzzZZZ

[MegaLucuma]

I know its so late!! haha (1:30am here) yeah its time to go :) good night!

[KidOnTheNet]

goodnight :D

[bethelshiloh]

That was the best one so far I have found on you tube. I considered doing that same thing and doing all the parts. I am w/ rkmgen. How 'bout doin' the whole song.

[rkmugen]

..... any chance you might consider doing the whole song?

[trudbol]

@rkmugen Yes, I plan to do it. I have a whole bunch of other projects going on at the moment, but this one is in the to do list! Thanks for watching and stay tuned for more a cappella tunes! Cheers

[rkmugen]

@trudbol Very cool. Can't wait! Cheers

[Kasimir1407]

cool

[theGLASSEZ]

what kind of microphone do you use to record these videos? well done!

[trudbol]

@theGLASSEZ Thank you. Check out the info section of my channel for answer to your questions. I used a Zoom H4n USB stand-alone recording device. It's one of my best electronic buys of the past couple of years, no doubt! Cheers

[theGLASSEZ]

@trudbol thanks!

[revraptor0]

I uploaded this to my iPod but I wish you would do the full song. It was very well done and all my friends love it too.

[trudbol]

@revraptor0 Thanks! I will do the full song, I just need a little bit of time to finish up on other projects I've started, but I most definitely will. Cheers and thanks for dropping a line.

[benzagel]

@trudbol would love to hear a full version! thanks for awesome vids :D

[trudbol]

@benzagel Yes, I know, I know, people keep telling me! ;-) I will do it, soon! Thanks for commenting. Cheers

[AdMeliora1]

@trudbol Hooray!!! I just read that you'll be doing the full song!! Can't tell you how HAPPY that makes me (and apparently a lot of other people too!). This song is awesome! You are awesome! Therefore, your version of this song = PERFECTION!! :D

[jogo1209]

Brilliant! May I suggest listening to my  version?

[trudbol]

@jogo1209 Nice job my friend. It's good to hear people sharing their rendition of this good ol' classic. Cheers

[ImaginaryMdA]

Just great!

(and I'm not talking just about the music, (also the looks!))

[trudbol]

@ImaginaryMdA Thank you, happy you enjoyed the show! Cheers

[ImaginaryMdA]

@trudbol It's a great thing you answer all your comments, even those stupid ones like mine! :P

[trudbol]

@ImaginaryMdA Hehe, it's a pleasure getting such nice feedback, it's the least I can do to let you know I'm reading your comments! Cheers and stay tuned for more acappella tunes!

[AdMeliora1]

ahhhhh! I CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THIS TRACK!!! Love, love, love it! The harmony is so tight! My only complaint is that it is too short! Also, the bass is sexy!! ;)

[fledis]

your are such an amzing person .your videos are great and your voice is great ,too.

greets christoph :)

[trudbol]

@fledis Thanks for the kind words Christoph! If you could share my video with friends, I'd be grateful! Cheers

[gusisbest]

I second this statement. we need more barbershop quartets to brighten up our day.

[sbeer6er]

you sound so good!
