Күн бұрын

In a vibrant vocal analysis session, Dr Dan delves into Gigi De Lana's soulful interpretation of Dianne Reeves' late 80s hit, "Better Days," highlighting Gigi's exceptional tonal quality and her adeptness at vocal track shaping for consistently remarkable phonatory flow. He praises her skilful phrasing, which brings the lyrics to the forefront, ensuring that the story of reminiscing about better days with a grandmother is vividly conveyed.
Dr Dan notes the critical importance of timing in delivering vocal phrases that sync seamlessly with the band's rhythm, a testament to Gigi's profound musicality and understanding of dynamic performance. Moreover, he points out the finesse required in breath management and vocal fold control, particularly in executing register transitions and adding texture through vocal fry, underscoring Gigi's extensive vocal skill set. Throughout the analysis, Dr Dan's admiration for Gigi's talent is palpable as he underscores her ability to draw on a diverse toolbox of vocal techniques to enhance her performance.

⚠️ As a singing voice specialist, I fully acknowledge that each live performance is a snapshot in time and does not encapsulate the entire spectrum of an artist's work, nor can it predict their future evolution. I understand that a myriad of factors, both positive and negative, can influence the delivery of a live performance. I strive to appreciate and critique each live rendition for its own merits, independent of the artist's past or potential future performances. Recognising the ebb and flow of live music, I value its spontaneity, novelty, and individuality and strive to give it the thoughtful consideration it deserves.

Gigi ., I love this singer. She makes me want to smile!! Her joy as she sings is contagious. Not even considering her amazing technical skill.:)

Hi Dan, I always ❤ your Giginalysis 😁. I loved the original of this song by the amazing multi-award Grammy winner, Diane Reeves. But i was floored when i heard Gigi's version. She made this her own, & for the 1st time I understood what the song was really about. Such a great storyteller. Also, this is a jazz song but she used some rock vocal fry elements in her vocals on the 2nd half of the song. Who would've thought that would work? Only Gigi & the Vibes. I like them bc they take risks & think outside the box. Kudos to the boys too, such amazing musicians. Next pls analyze OFFICIALLY MISSING YOU.

I just read Kats reaction, she is right on point as well this is probably my favorite performance all the way around with Gigi and the band of course. The timing and the bass player just killed it 😢😂❤❤❤❤. I've said this before but the worst thing a current artist can hear is that Gigi did a rendition of your song 😂❤🎉😊

She owned this song! You rarely see a cover that sounds as authentic as the original. I see a lot of Philippine talents who do covers but you feel the cover aspect of their renditions. But here, Gigi just owned it. The few people I've seen do this so far are Regine, Gigi and KZ.

Gigi is an actress first; the singing just comes along for the ride. I like to say that she flirts with the camera like no other.

@HappyKat9 3 күн бұрын

I agree. In Love The Way You Lie, u can see that. She has the face of an actress, the expressions on her face, such a natural. And Im talking about not just the parts where she's rapping, but the parts where she's actually not doing anything, just listening to Oyus sing or the band play. She gets into character in every song she does.

Her favorite is performing live in concerts for her fans. I'm convinced she sings strictly for her fans. But it was her mother who encouraged her to sing, so she might make it a career.

@egg8928 3 күн бұрын

Correction Gigi is first and foremost a singer by profession joining local singing contest since she was 9 yrs old, transitioning as a wedding singer w/her band the acting came later after making a name in the music industry breaking out via the talent show Tawag ng Tanghalan.

@HappyKat9 3 күн бұрын

@@egg8928 oh I think there's just a slight misunderstanding here. When I say actress, I don't mean Actress as a profession. I meant it more like an actress in the sense of her amazing ability to tell a story, & to morph into different characters, depending on the song. Thats why she can sing different genres from the 50s, 60s,70s,80, 90s to the current music. She can go almost looking possessed in Unholy, to singing Oceans, a Christian song. In House of the Rising Sun, you almost feel transported in time to the 1800s. Its as if she's singing in a lounge of a cigar-filled brothel in New Orleans. That's probably not even her intention, but me knowing what the original song is about, it brought me there. She is able to make u visualize these songs. With Better Days for example, Diane Reeves sang this in such an amazing way right? She's a very respected jazz artist. But Gigi not only sang it but "acted" this song. As in i could visualize grandma in a rocking chair, and later grandma spreading her wings & flying. So yes of course she's an amazing vocalist, but what makes it even compelling is bc she's also a great "actress". Oh yes I know she was in a romantic comedy mini-series & played a supporting role in a movie, so yeah I know she's also an Actress, in the real sesnse.

Hello Dr Dan! Are you able to react to Stell from the boyband SB19 rendition of "All by myself" with David Foster? He sang this with David Foster along with 3 other songs "All I ask, "Defying Gravity' and his own solo song "ROOM". He is from the Philippines and he sang All by myself when asked by David Foster 1-2 hour before the concert when he heard him doing sound check on the 3 songs that he sang as a opening act. Stell is a counter tenor. Much appreciated.
