Also, I am curious to look into the more drying effect falsetto has on the chords in comparison to modal singing, but what I found most disconcerting within the first 30 seconds was when you described the voice with having less flexibility, tonal variation, and projection. You can listen to any professional countertenor and see how legitimate and true these voices are. Maxwell Cencic is a prime example along with David Daniels.

The title of this video is very misleading because you make it sound like falsetto voice will damage the vocal chords in general. People who do not understand its functionality read this and their first impression will lead to more negativity towards countertenors upon perspective when compared to other "modal" vocalists.

Michael Jackson sounded great and he used falsetto all the time

Justin Vernon is male falsetto

@MatthewAlfrey Roger Taylor (drummer from QUEEN) has a good falsetto too...

I thought falsettos chord position is very loose?.... im pretty sure falsetto is not tight chords... cause in my falsetto, i barely feel any chord tension at all.

im so confused, i sing with a fair amount of wind with an alto range (close to soprano) but it sounds nothing like a falsetto and has a great volume :/ im confused if its falsetto or not because i still use alotof wind

Matthew Bellamy is a brilliant example of a male falsetto!

He is 100% right. Don't confuse falsetto with head-voice
Falsetto is a false voice where you force air through lose vocal cords to get a sound.
What happens when you force your chest voice up? You flip into falsetto. It is a protection mechanism of the voice, it is not really a 'natural' method of phonation, and overuse can cause serious problems for the vocal folds. There's nothing wrong with using it as a stylistic technique but it shouldn't be a crutch.
Head voice =/= falsetto
