*So*... I think the fact that Avery struggled to break down his own riff (singing it slowly) but then could *easily* do it when Natalie told him to just sing it fast in his own way, proves that the best riffers don't actually "think" when they're riffing and are mostly going off of feel. I love "Breaking Down the Riffs", but I hope singers who are serious about getting good at runs realize it's not always about technique but fine-tuning your ear and your ability to improvise.

The idea is to learn how to exactly reproduce others riffs. Cause usually when you sing your own, you don’t need any directions you just chose your own style and your own way to express yourself, but when you want to reproduce the same riffs of someone else, sometimes isn’t so easy. That’s it. It shouldn’t help you to improvise riffs

FACTS!
I struggle to understand why he isn't more famous. He's young, tall (I didn't know he was 6'4"), handsome, has a head full of hair, can sing like he made a deal with devil, and his personality seems authentic and kind and humble. What's going on?
@vhiftyyi
22 күн бұрын
I don’t want to answer this, because I don’t want people dragging me, or thinking that *I* think this, but I IMAGINE that why he isn’t more famous is because 1) he oversings too much (too many riffs/very churchy) 2) He’s a little zesty 3) he knows how good he is, and is therefore difficult to work with. These are just guesses and do not reflect MY opinions. 🤷🏻♂️

Seni Joshua because she's 100% right. Most singers would agree that runs are mostly spontaneous and improvised (aka "word vomit" 😂). The fact that Avery struggled to break down his own riff but did it perfectly when Natalie told him to "just do it like how you do it" kind of proves that

Nathan Alan if you have an iPhone, I'm not sure if android has it but download an app called Anytune. And then choose the song from your phone. You have the ability to but the song in any key you want and to slow it down or speed it up however you want. When it gets to her runs, slow it down to the point where you can hear each note individually and just practice. After a little bit, it's very easy. Not complicated at all. I did this for a little less than a half hour and it's no problem anymore. Hope this help you and others on the thread!

awesome vid Natalie! u almost got the run - just practice that last section slow about 20 times, like very slow and ull prob have it. One of the hardest ever runs man. He is incredible. And so are you.
Lmao. I always love the ending bit where they smile and say "to win again" lmfao. That was the most simple thing about this riff.
I miss these so much!!!!! Luv you Natalie

I almost lost my shit when I saw the thumbnail. A dream collab I had not even dreamed of. Loved it! Also thanks Natalie for being so unafraid to show that it's okay to make mistakes. Love you both. Still waiting for the day you'll both ascend to greater heights.
A fiercely talented and down to earth singer! Natalie you are an inspiration!
This was RIDICULOUS. So much talent in one video!! #IDie I LOOOOVE Breaking Down the Riffs!!!! Please make more!!
OMG, his placement on "Quiet" is buttah!

This is my FAVORITE!!!! Avery is just AMAZING! i love him! his voice is so incredible and impossible to do! THANKS FOR THIS NATALIE!!
omg I'm so happy you made a video with him ! My favorite male singer
It helps to sing this riff to not think too technically, if she just did it without worrying too much about being right, she probably would do it right.
