This guy is beyond amazing! So great to see live! You will never be more entertained by a single person in your life! More people need to know about this man!
saw Raul when he opened for Jason Mraz, blew me away. What a talent, what a musician. The man uses his vocals to simulate a trumpet on his song sitting in the middle, check it out!
it seems alot of people have been listening to artists using Autotune so much that they forgot how good some singers like Raul Midon can actually be. Our ears have been defiled by bad music over the years. Back in the 70's and 80's almost all artists could sing fast and high scales without a pinch of effort.
That's no effect - just guitar and voice the same as the rest of the song! If you think these videos are cool, go see him live and you'll be blown away! :)
Yep, that's because he has amazing vocal pitch accuracy, even at fast tempos. Other singers can only do it using effects like AutoTune.
Check out the youtube video "Raul Midon - Giant Steps" where he talks a bit about his crazy vocal improvisation approach to singing through chord changes. He even improvises singing in unison and in harmony with the guitar - it's insane!
My husband passed away 3 weeks ago and this song was really special for us both. we really felt the way that Raul sings about each other. This is one of the osngs that really does touch your heart.
Unbievable and coming from one musician to another. You play from the heart..which is something thats hard to find of being able to express youself from within. Very heart warming indeed your are a great story teller.
Truly one of gods purest creations in the music industry right now, such amazing talent to be able to do exactly this, making a whole song out of his mind body and soul... peace be with him
tis amazing! do you have the track? Because nothing against Raul but the sound quality of this vid doesnt sound as nice as a normal track. . .its even more amazing!
