Go, Lovely Rose Virtual Choir, Multitrack

[BrittanyRose1991]

THIS SONG IS SO PRETTY! And then seeing the info, I got super excited cause I was also born in July...in the year 1991!

[kittysuperhero]

how do you put all these videos and assemble it into one video? xD

LOVELY voice, I'm singing this in choir :)

[JustSamantha15]

I wish I could sing... I used to, in elementary school chorus. But since then, I realized I wasn't that good. Haha.

[xxdarkblue18xx]

Hey I want to do something like you for a coffee-house performance, did you do all of the harmonies yourself or didn't you have sheet music?

[chrepiz5]

Awesome!

[Skyboiyaj]

@SugarbabyLA Amazing! Although, I'm curious of what type of software you used to put all the parts together. Would you mind sharing how you put this all together? :D

[J0n312]

is this girl singing this low??



[dltemrb5710]

I think this is amazing....you really have alot of talent :)

[zedhead77]

I have been thru 4 or 5 of your posts and am deeply moved by your talent! Noticed you to begin with thanks to TedTalks where Eric highlited you! You are and have an amazing Talent!



[JCalhoun1000]

It's lovely that you're doing these things. I think it's very impressive! As a singer, it's obvious that you're making great strides, and still working toward improvements. I suggest that they next improvement you strive for is a silent inhalation. It would make you singing so much more seamless, and allow for a consistency of sound without the gaspy interruptions. Keep up the good work! :-)

[Beverkake]

I commented on your "Think of me" video that it looked like lip syncing due to it being quite doubtful that the camera would have that good a microphone. This video, on the other hand, proves your awesome singing capability. Although I have to say I laughed when I heard the bass. Beautiful singing, anyway! Keep it up!

[lolzgirlmorgan]

Who is the composer?? I have to request this to my choir director for next year!!

[SugarbabyLA]

@lolzgirlmorgan Eric Whitacre of course! :)

[lolzgirlmorgan]

@SugarbabyLA I'm sorry, I didn't know! (: Thanks!

[iloveredsox7020]

@SugarbabyLA OF COURSE!!!!!!!!!!!! like the most amazing compser to ever live!!!!

[SodiakDNV]

nice Teeth :D

[krisdestiny34]

and also, your smile is super infectious! Good work

[krisdestiny34]

Incredible, this song is so underrated in my eyes. You do this so well!

[avtenor]

How did you keep tempo? I'm thinking doing something similar but not sure of the logistics of it all. By the way, you have a fantastic voice. I'm an Equity actor and sing professionally and just wanted to say that you have a BRIGHT future ahead of you. Keep singing!

[enricator]

wonderful!

[TadRapidly]

SugarBaby, How sweet and fair you seem to be. Wow.

[luke82092]

Beautiful cover!!!

[jtrstrings]

wow! great voice and multitrack!

[oohmayobaby]

your voice is amazing! i just wish you were weren't smiling all the time lol, it makes the song look and feel less serious... =/ but the vocals were beautiful!

[oohmayobaby]

your voice is amazing! i just wish you were weren't smiling all the time lol, it makes the song look and feel less serious... =/ but the vocals were beautiful!

[bradbro09]

Wow! The tenor part at 1:19 is surprisingly good!

[mikarin18]

amazing :))

[DrBlowThingsUp]

Amazing videos :) I've just spent the best part of half an hour looking through asll your videos, so I hope you don't mind I'm just going to comment on one of them :P Have you ever thought of doing something like Hide and Seek, by Imogen Heap?

[MeeAndChicken]

:O.. speechless!

[TheBlurringLines]

your range is impressive...wow, i'm in love with your voice. gorgeous! <3

[ladidayy]

You inspire me so much o.o

You're multitracks and Eric Whitacre's virtual choir inspired me to start my own choir!

I love the songs you do (:

[Chimeraphim]

How in the world could something this wonderful have only 4,622 hits?!?!?! Amazing voice, intonation, articulation, balance, dynamics, timing, and choice of song. This is one of the most talented youtube vids i think Ive ever seen! What program do you use to mix the tracks?

[SugarbabyLA]

@Chimeraphim Wow, I am very humbled by your comment :) Thank you so much. I use Adobe Premiere Elements 4.0, but I am currently looking for something better.... lol.

[meligrl93]

ugh ur voice is amazing :)

[bandboy13]

WOW, who is the one jerk that would dislike this? you're amazing.

[adventgerrard]

Is that bass your voice too..??!

[SugarbabyLA]

@adventgerrard Haha! I sang the bass part an octave higher, then used a pitch shifter to lower it an octave :)

[windupbird20]

So good! I keep on sharing it on facebook. Thanks a lot for it!

[sephiroth3782]

Wow =)

I love this one so much

Whenever I hear a version of Go, Lovely Rose always end up thinking that its not quite as good as this one =P

oh and also, I just read the album booklet from 'Light & Gold' and your name was mentioned in it =D

if you didn't already know =3

[timen1986]

i just finished a long session of eminem, blood for blood and nofx; You're voice made me feel like i was chilling in a nice and warm bath. Keep it up

[adrianmchapa]

Holy shit.

[degolaswhat]

You are absolutely amazing.

[miggtorr]

OMG, i love your vid. this is def one of my top 5 fav eric whitacre songs!

Heres a tip tho: for the part of "Bid her come forth, etc." it's obvious u had to digitally lower your voice. i dont blame u lol, thats a bass part. but what i sometimes do to make it sound less distorted is i sing it like a only third or a fifth higher than the actual pitch, so that when i lower it, theres less distortion. idk if thats what u did or whether u just sang it up the octave. either way, it sounded great!

[ladidayy]

Did you lower your voice with the computer?

[SugarbabyLA]

@ladidayy Yes :) With a pitch shifter.

[wheflin16]

@SugarbabyLA melodyne???

[paintedblack09]

Goosebumps every single time. You are absolutely amazing :)

[paintedblack09]

Goosebumps every single time. You are absolutely amazing :) Youtube should be proud to have you here.

[trudbol]

Way to go Melody, that was beautiful. The video set-up looks great, with the background and the flower in your hair. And it's great to actually hear and see you in HD (woot!). I too think you don't need to sing SATB scores and transpose it artificially with programs. You should look for all female arrangements: Try a-cappella(dot)com, their site has lots of great arrangements for less than $2. Good luck for your contest. PS : I sang the full bass line for our collab', now working on the tenor!

[Lovestar120]

Who's the IDIOT that disliked this? I mean really...If I could I would hit them upside the head with a shovel LOL.

[SugarbabyLA]

@Lovestar120 Haha! Wow, thank you lol.

[snutte]

Its a quite amazing voice you got. You'll sure get my vote. Have watched some of your videos for some time. I hope to see you in a professional career soon. :) good luck from sweden.

[joea61]

That was awesome

[Duke9944]

Great

[BassMeister17]

Have you tried using a program called Melodyne to pitch shift your parts for the bass track? You can take your recorded voice and shift it down the octave or so you need and it will sound much more natural. It still won't be perfect, but it might make the lower parts sound less "digital" and keep your diction clearer. Hope this helps! Love your videos, as always!!

[SugarbabyLA]

@BassMeister17 No, I haven't actually, never heard of it, THANK YOU! :D I will seriously look into that haha. :) Do you know how much it costs? And/or where to get it? I hope it works on Windows. :) 

[BassMeister17]

@SugarbabyLA It is for both Mac and Windows! It is a bit pricey for the basic version, about $250. But, of course, there are other ways to get it cheaper...if you are so inclined. :-P You can download a demo of the program that allows you to load and edit 10 seconds of audio, if you would like to try it! I've used this program in my studio and the modifications you can do to a voice range from completely transparent to T-Pain! haha

[SugarbabyLA]

@BassMeister17 Holy crap! $250 Hm? I guess I could look around.. Thanks soooo very much for the info and tips, I really appreciate it! :) And I'm guessing you can download the demon online?

By the way... sounds awesome! I really would love to have it haha.

[thatoneguywithdaface]

This is amazing! You amazed me once again!!! How is college? Where are you going?

[SugarbabyLA]

@thatoneguywithdaface Thank you sooo much! I'm so glad you like it. :D College is very awesome yet time consuming haha. And I'm going to Cumberland University :)

[thatoneguywithdaface]

@SugarbabyLA Oh I know how that is I have been in college now for three years. But with time it gets easier lol. :)! How many hours are you taking?

[GregoriousGregori9]

No host of Angels could sound so unique & beautiful

Thank you for creating & sharing the gift of your music & your voice

[SugarbabyLA]

@GregoriousGregori9 What a wonderful compliment, thank you so much! I wish I could say more.. <3

[AttilaThe1]

@GregoriousGregori9

I couldn't have said it better!

[SongstaForLife]

i love eric whitacre. and i love multitrack videos. thanks for giving me both!

[Writerscramponheart]

awesome, as usual! it's a honor knowing you and performing in PL with you. this is just amazing...i LOVE it!

[musicroman]

I really like very very much this original clip

[mrlime]

You seriously need to NOT stop making these recordings! They are absolutely amazing and you manage to do better each time! It actually scares me that you're soo good! :) I can see you're moving along on your "requests" and I really hope you'll do "The Voice" by Celtic Woman which I wished for a while ago. :) If you'd do that, you would make me even more happy than what I am at the moment after listening to this brilliant piece! Way to go! :)

[SugarbabyLA]

@mrlime Awww!! You're sooo sweet! Thank you so much! I wish I could say more than thank you... haha. <3 And YES! The Voice should be my next video, I actually started on it before Go, Lovely Rose, but for some reason my voice just wasn't hitting the notes right for me. Hopefully I will get the video up in about a week or so? Maybe this weekend! Depends on if I have a free day :D

[Rubano5428]

SugarBabyLA > Awesomeness + amazingness.

[unicusDOTcom]

Really good job Melody!! I wonder how many people realize how much time it takes to produce something like this.

[vanish129]

I Didn't even start watching and I already started to press like and save to my favorites haha cuz i know it already sounds awesome! haha

so is this the one you've been having trouble with???

[SugarbabyLA]

@vanish129 Thank you aww :) And yes. But the moving videos aren't "that" bad. I'm just picky about it lol.

[vanish129]

@SugarbabyLA I was about to say that, cuz I didnt see any moving!? and bass pitching down kinda shocked me there btw!

[SugarbabyLA]

@vanish129 Hahaha! Well thanks I'm glad it doesn't bother you like it does me. And yeah, what else was I suppose to do about the bass.. hah xP

[carloCGN]

fantastic voice.

[mufcfan96]

Very impressive,well done,epic vocal work, thumbs up from Foxy!!....

[vanceperry]

Very nice, Melody! Oh so talented! Next time call me for the bass parts. ;)

[weesamin]

i love your multi tracks.. are you reading from sheet music or do you listen to the song and dissect each piece and get the parts that way?

[SugarbabyLA]

@weesamin Hmmm... well, to tell you the truth, I create the audio first, then go back and sing with it to create the videos. And yes and no. I actually created this at my pace, and dissected it little by little to get everything (almost) perfect haha.

[serdenarif]

Another good work of yours. Love, Arif

[AlexanderLee1]

Very good, but I think it would have been better without the pitch-shifted bass. I don't think the low notes were necessary at all.

[faceface27]

MELODYMELODYMELODYMELODYMELODY

Terrific again =)

[1nine79]

multi awesomeness!

[KarateGurl2009]

AMAZING best friend. I loved it. :)

[Kateexo315]

[janiegirly07]

I love online choirs, great job :)

[MrMusiclover389]

Beautiful! I don't much care for the bass so can only give you a 4.999 ;)

[SugarbabyLA]

@MrMusiclover389 Hahaha thank you! And, well... that's to be expected because I don't have someone close by to sing the bass parts for me, oh well. xD

[Iddybud]

You did a lovely job, SugarbabyLA.

[Barbershop666]

You blow me away. Those solos freaking gave me CHILLS.

[SugarbabyLA]

@Barbershop666 Awh, thank you Jayson! I'm glad you liked it :D

[dunte86]

This is the first Eric Whitacre song i performed =)

[dunte86]

@dunte86 the bass voice caught me off guard lol

[SugarbabyLA]

@dunte86 Haha! Awesome, and yeah.. pitch shifter does come in handy. XD
