I honestly don't care what they talk about, these are just two of the loveliest people alive and it's a pleasure to listen

Elizabeth has one of, if not THE most positive internet experiences available. Her channel is a joy to watch and is full of kindness, positivity, and love. Her viewers are the same. The world needs more of people like her!!! Great guest Justin!

I can't believe I watched two people talking about voice maintenance, vocal technics and their love for music in general for over two hours. In a foreign language.... and I can't even sing. You two are so delightful and Elizabeth is a real gem on KZfaq.

This is the coolest interview I've ever seen. The way they just vibe off each other is so awesome. Makes it feel more like two people becoming best friends than an interview

Watching her have a “eargasm” to music is priceless. Then she proceeds to analyze and explain it like no one I ever seen or heard. Simply Amazing!

I'm not a singer so the idea that you can consciously control your vocal cords and sing in different spaces completely blew my mind. I found myself trying some of the techniques, managed to scare my cats! Thanks so much Justin and Elizabeth thoroughly fascinating & charismatic people and voices ❤

I would 110% watch a podcast on the regular with you guys. "The Charismatic Ride Again". Your energies match really really well

I could listen to Justin and Elizabeth on a weekly podcast together, talking about anything and everything, forever. Just two wonderfully charismatic and fabulous humans! Amazing video!

These two had great professional chemistry. I could see them doing a regular podcast together.

I always enjoy when Justin tells anecdotes about his longtime friend, Jason Hawkwinds. It's a wonderful insight into his friends life.

My brother I totally feel you with the sadness of recovery. I've been sober for close to 6 years now and I still feel that sadness and longing at times. It's like you live in this neverneverland of infinite possibility and then one day it bites you and turns into a nightmare (not unlike some relationships). And even though you know it had to end you always look back to the good times. We can be such complex creatures.

You see it in her videos. Just a pure an honest love for the human voice and all it can do. This was a great interview.

I'm not a musician and I can't sing - yet i found this fascinating and very entertaining. Great job by both of you.

I love that this is not a one way interview, but truly back and forth conversation, while still hitting interview style topics. Love this!

I love both of you squealing over Dimash, hopefully now he's living and working in LA we'll get to see some more concerts from him in the US and the UK. On top of his vocal capabilities, I just love his charismatic personality and the genuine love he has for his fans.

Can we talk about how Justin and Elizabeth went deep into the story of Simanon and Sololomon, wonderful. There should be an animated series.

Elizabeth is an absolute angel. How many opera singers are there who can be excited to be at a metal festival? Her appreciation for “the other” is wonderful. She’s introduced me to a lot of music that was new to me.

I really love the chemistry and dynamic between these two!! They have such a rebel older brother/type A younger sister vibe and it’s really sweet, cause you don’t often find that outside of actual family, and it’s really comforting somehow.

I am a tech/science nerd and love this type of conversations. It is so wonderful to see how two professionals are able to connect and really, in such a short time, honestly discuss the the range of topics they do. It's like they are very old friends. Beautiful. And when Elizabeth says at 1:59:02, that a voice should shake your bones, I love it. That is what music and song is for me. When you feel it reach through you like an invisible hand that grabs your spinal chord and shakes you. That is just powerful, sublime, and beyond...

Two charismatic people together, happy to see you chat lovelies! :)

You two have substantial charisma & chemistry together as, I dare say cohosts.

So...here I am thinking, "2 hours, meh, I'll skip around" ... and then...this is such a great duo; what a great discussion. Such an earnest back and forth. It's so nice to be included in a conversation between two people that share not only a mutual respect of one another, but a huge love of music. Beautiful. Thank you.

...just spent 2 hours listening to Dimash ... he's amazing. Thanks for opening my mind to that dude, he's incredible. My heavy metal sensibility probably would not have found him otherwise.

This was wonderful. Elizabeth is so charming and knowledgeable. What a great guest.

I love her personality. She would be the best person to see concerts with.

I love Elizabeth's facial expressions! So cute! I really enjoyed this it was just so relaxing to listen too and learn so much from two amazing vocalists!

You know what I found really made this work? She didn’t expect to be interviewed, she wanted to have a conversation! And flowed really naturally even with the odd bit of silence you could tell she was putting thought into what was just said or it triggered another idea. Fantastic, Mr. Hawkins. 🤘

Justin going deep into his struggles was a really good watch, he is just brilliant and she has so much interest and passion that is infectious. Very good stuff this👍

Enjoyed this so much! Her video is actually how I found your KZfaq channel. I've always loved "I Believe In a Thing Called Love", and once that video was posted, I began watching your videos (love them by the way) and went back through all of The Darkness' songs and found a love for the music I didn't know existed. I live in the states and haven't been exposed to anymore songs from The Darkness since that song. But now, my eyes and ears have been opened, and I love it. I'm a singer (not professionally) and really enjoyed hearing this side of the music even though I do love the guitar explaining side of your videos as well. Anyway, love from The States. Cheers!😊

These two have really complimentary energy. Such a joy to watch them just have fun and vibe.

One more thing...I would like to thank Justin very much for sharing his recovery story. It made me feel so sad to know that he had to endure such sadness through the very long, sad time. Hugs, Hugs and more Hugs to you Justin.🤗 It makes me feel happy that he made it through to the other side. Bless your heart Justin. I believe he deserves his every bit of happiness. It’s always so refreshing to see Justin’s contagiously sweet, genuine and kind smile. Thanks for always sharing that as well.🥰💞💖

40:07 Fun fact: Cashews grow in a shell that protrudes out of the cashew apple. Between the shell and the cashew is a toxin called urushiol, which is the same same toxin in poison ivy. Enjoying listening to your chat so far!

It's content like this that I never knew that I wanted in my life, but now having found it can't imagine how I was ever happy without it. You are both so clearly enjoying each others insights and opinions it is heartwarming. Both of you opening up your vocal folds and your hearts for us all to be warmed by. I also find a burning desire to see if Simanon can elicit that tear from his father...

Oh my days….. thank you for Dimash….. my mind is blown

She hangs on every word he says becuz how absorbed and intrigued she is with vocality. It's enormously cute and endearing, as well as bright and intelligent.

I enjoyed this more than any other. You are a rockstar with intelligence and grace. And she is just awesome. Good job Justin. You have a new fan.

Nice! I was already wondering when and if this interview would drop. Thanks to the both of you for creating great content! And Justin, please do some more interviews/ talks/ chats with people. Your politeness, positivity and knowledge is a real asset in those conversations :)

Justin, you said something of immeasurable importance. I go5 sober in 2018. I am just now coming out of depression and rejoining life. Quitting is the easier part. Learning to enjoy life sober is daunting.

She’s absolutely smitten with him. Shes like a giddy teenage girl here. Adorable. ❤

I absolutely love this crossover!

Isn't Elizabeth AMAZING! so expressive and open! ..check out her opera-singing performances....she's freaking MIND-blowing!

What an interesting and entertaining conversation! I was very pleased to learn you both rate Dimash Qudaibergen so highly; to my ears, he’s the best singer I’ve ever heard ...

Tremendous discussion! You two and Beato have classed up and enhanced KZfaq tenfold. I can’t wait to hear more.

She looks so happy just talking to Justin. Imagine if she actually met him, she'd absolutely freak out! :)

You and Elizabeth are my favorite “music reaction” type channels on KZfaq. So glad this collaboration happened, I know I’m not alone when I say I wanted this to happen so badly! Y’all are the best! ❤

Fascinating, and isn't she a wonderful, lovely, clever lady. This is an amazing interview. More of a proper 2 way conversation than an interview. The way you two clicked and talked so naturally with such honesty - so interesting and what good watching for me as a total non singer. Justin I'm glad you took that time out to recover - the world is clearly a better place with you in it

I have listened to each of them our their own podcasts and when Elizabeth analyzed Justin, I thought how nice it would be if they had a mutual broadcast and now it's come to pass, This 74 year old weekend hippie/punk ate it up. Such sweet chemistry.

OMG OMG OMG! Over 2 hours of joy! I have been waiting for these two to team up forever and it has finally happened! Two of the best singers and absolutely the *best* singer/song analysts on KZfaq; charming, insightful and just plain fun watch their genuine responses to the amazing singers and groups that they review. Thank you for sharing this wonderful time with us!

Thank you so much, Justin and Elizabeth! This chat has been so entertaining and educating. Jus, I really appreciate how honest and clear you are when talking about your addiction, the decisions you made and how hard it was. Elizabeth, thanks to you I finally found "my voice". Your explanations are so pedagogic and easy to visualise, you helped me made the "click" I needed (I'm forever grateful for generously sharing all the knowledge you have, though I think my neighbours are not as happy as I am). Much love and fortune to both of you ❤ 🔥

Amazing. This was a master class. Watching these two professional singers trying different vocal techniques was incredible.

This woman. I'm hooked. I'm not sure what it is. But I'm hooked. I was already hooked on Justin. Now I'm hooked on both of them.

Honestly, her channel is one of the best. She interviewed Lzzy Hale from Halestorm and it's one of the most fun, informative chats I've ever seen with a musician.

Absolutely fascinating in every way possible. Too much of Justin and Elizabeth is just not enough. Thank you. Love and respect from Australia.

That feeling when you're having a great time listening to these two chat, then you worry that it's approaching the end... And you realize there's still like two hours left 🤩

Listened to the whole thing after thinking that I would just jump around. I have to go look up that SOS singer they both raved about.

Two professionals on top of their game having a relaxed conversation and lots of fun besides. Brilliant!! Favourite line: You have to put the same dedication into the nap.🤣 Thanks a lot for two very entertaining hours! [Edit: Typo removed]

I would absolutely watch it, if you two made more videos like this

This was cracking! Just a joy to watch , didn’t feel like over 2 hours! So interesting. The biggest thing that struck me was the total respect each had for the other. I just love how Justin was making her giggle as well. You two really should do something regularly. Both simply get it.

Thanks for this very informing and interesting conversation! One learns so much from you. And thanks for including Dimash Qudaibergen 🥰

This is the second (?) time that I've seen Elizabeth featured on someone else's channel. That is in itself, a great testament to who she is. I have been subscribed (now a patron) for what? 3 yrs. now? Doesn't matter. Those who've not before seen her, this IS The Charismatic Voice. Nothing phony here. And I'll say the same for Justin. They made for a pleasurable conversation in which we were invited to listen in on. Great video!

I think I have a tiny crush on Elizabeth. She's just so enthusiastic and passionate. It's hard not to love her. Her reaction to the space Kraken in her reaction video was just too adorable

It amazes me how much chemistry there seems to be between JH & EZ. For two people who do not really know each other - they seem so comfortable just chatting away. They come across as old friends.

This was one of the nicest and most informative interviews on the topic of vocals that I've seen online. Could listen to you guys discussing voice and technique for hours.

This podcast makes me smile. thank you, Justin and Elizabeth!!!

Yes! I was hoping for this conversation to happen!❤

I honestly love both of you. You both have this positive, warm energy that is infectious. I was excited to see a video of you two together!

People don't realize how hard it is to feel normal again after quitting drugs. It takes weeks/months just for your body to start feeling better and I think a lot longer for your mind. You have to retrain yourself how to talk to people without drugs and alcohol as a crutch. It's a lot of work, but it's worth it and you definitely have to want it. Justin Hawkins should be a huge inspiration for anyone, whether they like his music or not. Love this channel ♥️

Love it when people love their craft Peace and love to you both

Liz is making the world a better place. My singing had improved since learning to think of things such as placement etc.. which I hardly thought of before. I only aped what the singers did, but that doesn't help when you have to make it your own because of the range.

Long time for me too, Justin. It is great that you hit the breaking point long before many people do. I hit mine when I was 27. Funny early recovery I went to a meeting and heard a woman say she was 9 years sober and was just starting to face reality. It took me a long time too. You are helping others so much by being an example. Love this interview. It is now my 4th watch.

Here's the thing, if Montserrat Caballê and Freddie Mercury could pull off a song brilliantly together, then I see a real gap in todays market for a Elizabeth Zharoff and Justin Hawkins collaboration. I hope you could make it happen. Considering that you have so many subscribers to your names then the initial marketing would have been done automatically.

Finally!!!!? Can't thank you enough guys. Love you both. Cheers from India. ❤🤘🏽

Heard this episode on Spotify and had to come back for the visuals. This was such enjoyable and engrossing episode that I managed to burn family dinner - kids were not impressed! I'm glad that there's hoping nearly any voice can be trained as my singing is pretty awful. Once my dad told me after a minute of my delightful singing when I was a teenager - "Sweetie, you sing beautifully but too long!" and he's really tolerant guy overall... Thanks guys for the amazing episode!

What a great interview! 2 hours that flew by. What a pair of nice, humble people, talking about something they love.

Absolutely loved this. One of my favorite sections was Justin playing with his voice to produce the different sounds as the character who might study opera. So many people forget how to play with their voices. it showed lots of freedom and fearlessness.

I knew this was going to happen! It's so cool to see these 2 discussing voice together.

Vocal nerdiness to the max and I’m here for it!

When I hit play I thought, "Wow this will be a long video to watch"... when it was over I was like, "What? It's over already? I want more, that was great!" Loved the chemistry! Both of you are amazing conversationalists!

I heard “Thing Called Love” on the radio once. ONCE. I described it to friends and they thought I was crazy. It took FIFTEEN YEARS to find the song and the band, so I could finally show people. And they still think I’m crazy. Thank you for the music!

quite interesting to see two musician /vocalists and music lovers from different ends of the spectrum compare notes and explain the risks and damage singers have to go through to deliver a performance ... would love to see a crossover where justin sings one of elizabeths opera songs in that style and elizabeth sings one of justins songs in a rock voice .... just for science reasons lol ..

Steve Perry from journey should be considered in AT LEAST the top ten vocalists. Always makes me mad he’s never mentioned in top singer lists.

That was absolutely fascinating! I checked out Dimash Q. since I had never heard of him and wow, he was fantastic! Great content here. Loved it, thanks!

Yes, Dimash Qudaibergen definitely the best voice in the world! 1.41

YES! This is totally awesome that you did this interview! I saw her review of the Darkness, then your review of her review. This was such a great video! Thanks to both you and Elizabeth!

I have enjoyed following Justin's channel. He is knowledgeable and a true musician! Looking forward to seeing the Darkness!

Dear Elizabeth, but you're so charismatic! Thats why I and so many people have assumed that you named your channel that way. Watching you listen to music is so freaking exciting because your entire being seems to be consumed by it and that dimension, is you incarnate. Your unique character is so engaging - hence millions of subs!

This was a great meeting of two amazing talents. I knew you two would end up here after Elizabeth did her reaction of Justin singing with The Darkness. Her journey into rock and metal vocals I knew she would find The Darkness eventually. I have been a fan of Elizabeth for about three years now and have been a Darkness fan since day one and was elated when Justin started his KZfaq channel. As a 45 year vet as a rock guitarist and sometime lead vocalist and full time harmony vocalist this was just amazing to watch. Justin, do you remember when The Darkness had a guitar solo contest to one of your songs about 10 years ago? I entered along with a friend who is a great guitarist, we both did instructional videos for a free lesson website. I came in 51st and he came in 54th I believe out of 600 or so entries. I didn’t expect to win but it was fun. I entered another similar contest to win a recording session in England with Bernie Marsden. To my surprise I won that contest out 4500 entries in 2015. The Les Paul in my profile pic is Bernie’s’59 “The Beast”. My first commercial airline flight was from the states to England. My wife and had a great time with Bernie and his wife Fran. Memories of a lifetime.

Two of my most favourite KZfaqrs together. Been looking forward to this one. I’d better stop writing & enjoy the video.

i’ve been waiting for this since E’s reaction to i believe in a thing called love. She became one of my absolute favorite youtubers early in the pandemic (i’m a nurse who got sick at the beginning and spent a long-ass time in bed) and i’m loving how much she has blown up. her content is fascinating, as are the relationships she has formed with musicians all over the spectrum. Justin i have loved since i heard the darkness way back when. only found him on youtube about a year ago though 😬 anyway… this is the fun, intelligent, lovely, wholesome content i live for 💜 i’d love to see the two of you appear as special guests for each others reactions once in a while…

Eliz…This kind of crossover channel should take into account SO much more the norm…There are very good reasons why rational humans LOVE you…And we will continue to do so, going forward…Much love 🤗

I loved the absolute confidence with which Justin told Elizabeth that she will meet Mariah. It felt like a certainty in my own body when he said it. They’re both so gracious and generous with one another and what fun to see two music/vocal geeks exploring ideas and sharing experiences. Such a lovely conversation. The glimmers of the depth of the knowledge both have cultivated over the course of their careers felt like a MasterClass. Fantastic. Thank you so much for this. ❤

What chemistry! I don’t know what could be done with it, but it’s right there. Maybe the two can do a vocal project. Two views of a popular singer. The rock artist raw “from the gut” viewpoint and the studied trainer explanation.

I think is one of the most wonderful things I’ve ever seen/listened to. Two beautiful, kind, warm, funny and intelligent people having a lovely chat. It’s an absolute pleasure from start to finish and I’d watch this every day. Feeling all warm and fuzzy. ☺️❤️ More if this behaviour please Justin and Elizabeth. Much love to you both. X

2 beautiful humans, thank you.

holy crap, I COMPLETELY agree with that list of singers, including Jacob Collier. The entire interview is amazing!

To really enjoy tea, I use loose tea with my whistle kettle on my stove, pre heating the pot and a particular brewing process. It's much like listening to vinyl versus cd (not going to mention the vile Spotify: that's like tea in a polystyrene cup at a day out in Lowestoft). It's more of a mediation process that enhances the cuppa (or vinyl)...hope that makes sense 😀

Great interview, I follow the 2 channels and this is a great synergy!

Hi Justin, big fan, didn't know you live in Switzerland - as a fellow expat there, I had to laugh at your comment about 'finding it expensive, even for Switzerland!!', I've used the same phrase myself a few times about things! Tea is on me if you are ever at a loose end in Zurich! :D
