@@margaretherrerawhile that is kind of correct music does need to evolve a bit to get the attention of people these days. Emotional connection is how the music industry is competing with worship music, it's sad to say but if we stuck to traditional ways of worship it won't reach all that many not emotionally compared to today's music. Its all well and good to live in accordance with how the Bible says to do things but you won't always win peoples hearts if you don't change a bit to reach them.

SO true! Putting all this technical vocal work in it beforehand is key for being able to even make room for the Holy Spirit when it comes to actually leading worship and leading people into the presence of God. It's not like: Oh yeah let’s just lead worship and the Holy Spirit will just do it’s thing either way, so we don’t need the preparing and the effort. Sometimes there is this weird thought in christian society that preparing stops the Holy Spirit from being able to do his thing, but that’s so far from truth. It’s the same thing with preaching. I as a preacher put so much time and thought and effort into preparing a message, but not because I want to take away from the Holy Spirit or because I don’t want to make room for him. I do it because ONLY if I am prepared I can step back and be open enough for the Spirit to take over.
This is why rehearsal is important! Musicians in particular honor the Lord by giving their best, which requires practice, although never closed to the spontaneous unction of the Holy Spirit.

The first this 70 year old lady heard Brandon Lake sing was at his church Seacoast. He is the worship leader there. I was visiting my daughter that moved to South Carolina. He sang This is a Move and I was grabbing anyone I could find after service to get the name of the song because it was so amazing. Since that time in 2020 I have bought several of his songs. I can't believe his voice range. He is definitely a gifted young man.

It’s nice to watch a deconstruction of another’s work done with honour and integrity, whilst also acknowledging you learned something from it too. You don’t see this often! You both crushed it! Thanks for making this enjoyable to watch and maintaining respect for the artists in question! Good job guys 😉
I love the ‘stank’ faces for vocal appreciation 👌🏾
What I love about this song is that it isn't about God and what he's done for me; it's all about the Lord and His glory.
I am a voice teacher and a Worship Leader. I stumbled upon your video by accident. But there are no accidents. My pastor loves Elevation Worship so I do a lot of their songs. I had never seen this music video… chills! Not just the Holy Spirit, Amazing vocals, and incredible musicians but I have to point out the fim work! Absolutely brilliant! The quick shots of the audience just “roaring” and completely allowing themselves to be “lost in the moment.” This is great “worship” and great “worship leading!” Obviously led by the Holy Spirit, as the writing and performing of this song is. I will be putting it in our worship soon. Thank you for recognizing Christian Praise!🤗☝️✝️💜

I am not a singer, nor do I know much about the structure of music. What I DO know, is how I feel emotionally when hearing powerful, praise songs like this when I worship!!

I love this sm not only bc these are the songs I listen to on a daily basis but bc you are inviting others who may not have heard a song like this before to see and hear exactly what worship music is today! And how incredibly talented these Mighty men of God are!!! All glory goes to HIM!!!
I had the privilege of seeing them perform this live prior to ever hearing it before and was blown away! It instantly became my favorite. The ranges and the determination of the tones and the urgency along with the low growling is phenomenal. I love Brandon Lake. He is my favorite worship singer/leader and when him and Elevation Worship are together, there is no denying that God is present in the room! They are all touched by God and He gave them each a wonderful gift that they are so kind to share with us.
At 15:45, I'd say that Brandon Lake's voice has gristle. There's a sizzle in his voice that just puts it over the edge. Love it.
As church pianist/vocalist and part of the praise and worship team for several decades, I can tell you that it’s very important to practice, practice, practice to make your playing/singing look effortless.
Agreed. This song is off the charts, phenomenal - both in words and vocals. The Father - and Jesus - are well pleased.
Brandon Lake's high notes just hit my feels.
I loved WATCHING you guys listen to this. As you got more into it, your facial expressions and obvious enjoyment were PRICELESS! 🥰
Very well dissected. It definitely takes talent + LOTS of vocal work to keep your voice. It's not easy when you have to sing for a long time. Like any artist, these guys have to have their vocals in GREAT shape. I LOVE Elevation Worship! And my newest FAV is LION!!!!
This is my favorite song to listen to, sing and praise YHWH with. Words are completely on point, vocals are blessed with power. Frankly I could absolutely hear the angels in heaven sing this and not be at all surprised! Can't help but sing along. Been sending this link to everyone I know too.
First time on your channel! Your dissection was amazing and Melia…I love your face when his vocals get “gritty” 😂

Melia and Chase, Awesome work! We just found your channel and immediately our daughter said this couple supported our youth at Panzer chapel in Stuttgart. We PCS shortly after you guys arrived but our daughter quickly found photos of you guys pouring into the youth. Thank you for all that you do!
I just went to their concert in Knoxville tonight!!!! You’re spot on with your video and it’s awesome to see you in worship mode while listening and explaining! Awesome video ❤️🙌🏻
Yeeesssss! two of my fav vocalists! Thanks for this! P.s. as a "foreigner" I wouldn't say that we sing "accent-less", we choose to sing with the "typical" American accent as that's the place of origin of the genre of song/music. If I sang music from my country with an American accent it would sound ridiculous lol
They are creating the vibe and atmosphere like majestic and powerful, dominant, bold, strong, kingly and more which words cannot explain. Its more like humbling before the lion of Judah with that "majestic vibe" and preparing the way for the lion.
I love Chases fascial expressions on this video😁 you can tell when he's really feeling the music, and even their voices
Interesting points. I took the point about thinking higher while singing lower to prevent the excessive drop of the larynx to get “fuller” low pitches, and instead get a more richer low note with the higher frequencies /overtones not swallowed up / cut off. I first heard this from Tara Simon. Great you hear it reiterated by you guys.
This is my boys and my favorite song that we crank up and belt out!! Love Chris and Brandon!
I loveeeee that you guys are talking about this. It’s soooo true. I came across this because I searched “Brandon lake vocals” lol because him and Chris brown are my favorite. What you’re saying is so on point… they practice a lot so like my vocal coach says, it becomes muscle memory and second nature… he always says that singing should be the last thing you’re thinking about while leading worship haha

Loved this analysis. Keep it up! Not only did you guys identify sounds so precisely and explained it well, it was an entertaining video to watch. Thanks for reacting to a worship video, worship leaders put a lot of effort to sound good and lead the congregation and the effort is being recognized.
Always been a huge fan of this song and these performers, both of them really do bring a unique style to the performance and really do make something that requires so much talent look easy. I have always loved this performance and more importantly singers because they really do make you FEEL what they are singing, they put so much power behind it. What makes them so special in my opinion is how much talent they have at leading the worship aspect of it and really getting not only the people at the venue hyped about their faith but even after watching this video for the 50th time, it still gives me so much energy and sucks me into feeling as if I’m there with them. Love everything about it!!!
Elevation worship is definitely my favorite group. I saw them live in Atlanta not too long ago. Amazing night
I can’t explain it but every single time I listen to this song I feel like crying lol, like not a bad cry but it makes me emotional every single time
Chase’s face watching “roar” was my favorite. 😂🎉
Loved this episode and your technical assessment of this song. Stunning!
I never knew I needed to watch a video about the technical part of song vocals but here I am now subscribed & engaged. Takes me back to my junior high choir days lol
This was my first time listening to a breakdown of the technical aspects of specific vocalists. It was fascinating! I love to sing but have no idea what I actually sound like to the trained ear - probably don’t want to know. I’m eager to check out some of your other videos.
It’s so refreshing for someone to recognize the hard work that comes with singing because it’s not just the gods gift. You do have to work at it and to hit those notes you have to know which way to place your mouth where did suck air from all that. It is very very very technical so thank you.
I reference the first part of how Chris is singing less nastily and more forward, the songs also in a minor key which is rare for worship so I love that they just got to make the most of it. Love the vid guys!

I am absolutely obsessed with Brandon Lake’s voice. He can sing any song and bring it to a level never experienced before. Truly a gift from God this man’s voice is! And, at the same time, is such a spiritual person. Love his voice and the example he sets for us all.
