Greg Pritchard - Male Soprano on Britain's Got Talent

[grrrr17]

How come everybody is always ragging on falsetto-users?

It just comes across like bitterness.

I didn't like his song at all. Not because he's a counter-tenor, or uses falsetto, but because excessive vibrato is not attractive to my ears!

[chrisstevensjunior]

is he using falsetto?

[xxpeacelovemusic7]

At 0:34, everyone shit their pants.

[GamerLongboarder]

FAKE AND GAY!

[dogeymon83]

@GamerLongboarder - No. Not "fake".

[TheAleksMichel]

ok he has a high voice and so what? he isnt ood...not enough control...ennoying vibrato...wrong words!!!

[darrelf]

great... he can sing the wrong words in a falsetto voice.

[DDPWcawLeague]

watch Big Mouth... BM... I like the tandem of this guy and BM, two of the most unbelievable performer

[cwfannumber1]

The look on Simon's face after he starts singing.

[Alvassar666]

Não é soprano, e sim um falsetista!

Em falsete eu canto nesse tom tambem.

[Quintinlicious]

i can sing that high too.

[Oxydentist]

@Quintinlicious So record it and upload it on Youtube ;-)

[BlasphemousPothead]

I think one of my balls just fell off

[sonicluver4ever]

that was absolutly outstanding! That was awesome,ive never heard a guys voice get that high before!

[starcore27]

is he the one who really sing? i think not..because when u look closely to his mouth hid not singing and they using a kinda..wierd component...just judge by urself its just only my opinion...ahhhrgghhrrrggghht!!

[SunnyDNC]

Some people laughed when he began to sing but all applause when he finished. :)

[CockneyRebel1979]

Bloody hell! :/

[Rinart69]

jebuuuuz!! ajsdjasdjasjd la gente aplaude cualquier cosa!!!! XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD!! lo que él menos tiene es contratenor ! XDDDD es cosa de escucharlo hablar! su cualidad es poder hacer buenos falsetes pero más allá de eso.... xD! es como que yo me hicera llamar tenor porque puedo falsetiar a uno ! XDD

[mojonazo]

Ehhhhhh... te llamamos...

[happyboi99]

how do you tell that he is actually a sopranist and not just a countertenor?

is it possible to here the difference between falsetto and the modal voice?

[alexfanx]

I think someone's speaking voice would give you a good clue.

[Josiahrob]

They were saying on radio 4 a couple of days ago that male soprano singers often have deep voices :)

[alexfanx]

That sounds like they're using falsetto then.

[clinkerPL]

lool haha XD

[pretzelberg]

Why is that numbskull Piers Morgan on the jury?

[lizzythebiff]

farinelli il castrato

[kincsem1]

beautiful passage as well!

[12761202]

Contratenor no metzzosoprano.

[malesopranosdotcom]

Es un sopranista. Yo lo llamo un soprano masculino porque la mayoría de la gente no saben las palabras "contratenor" o "sopranista".

[kincsem1]

counter tenor is the range of roles for male sopranists, mezzos and altos really. arguments about which range constituyes the correct counter tenor miss the point.

[Ferdinand0880]

Que maraco ...

[TobiasLaFae]

Awesome.

[antalmax]

So glad some of us recognise rare talent.

 His type of voice is so rare that, sadly, even Cowell seems to be unaware of this rare gift. I wish someone took Greg on and trained him, he definitely has potential to become great.

[lalagonegaga]

Well, for judges of a musical contest, this bunch is rather uneducated. Never heard of a countertenor? Good night.

[malesopranosdotcom]

Either that or they didn't want the audience to know they were aware of them ( for appearing as naturally surprised as they were ). Nontheless, they recognized his talent and potential and I am very glad they did so.

I really think he could become quite a singer. Right now his sound is a little covered and he has issues with enunciation, but I believe he could work that out with a professional.

The qualities of his voice are power, range, absence of scooping.

[lalagonegaga]

I sure hope so. And if that is the case, the girl is a terrific actress. :-/ As for Greg, he definitely has great potential, although his sound is a bit too squeezed at the moment. Hope we will hear more of him soon. :)

[incorruptablecrown]

And as is often the case with the universe, you have also been proven uneducated. The competition is not a musical contest. It is a talent show, a variety contest not limited to musical performances. Good night.
