tired of these videos where he's just pretending to sing to an obviously prerecorded track.

It wasn't bad.

Is that Kjartan Sveinsson on guitar?

But seriously, fuck everything about this video. I'm all for people covering music they like, performing it live or even putting their recorded versions on youtube, but the level of production that went into this video is just obnoxious, it's like this guy doesn't realize he didn't write the song. I mean that shot at 2:30, is that a joke? Because it should be.

Also, top comment is:

"So uh, I heard Justin Timberlake did a cover of this."

Fucking lol.

"Also, top comment is:

"i heard this joke years ago too."

Re-imagined

No one can deny, Tyler Carter can sing. I enjoyed this cover.

shit tone

lol pretentious ass shallow focus

everything about this is so ridiculously dick in butt

"he can sing better than jt. said it."

I agree, his vocals on "The Worst of Them (Acoustic)" are great!

this guy sucks

everything about this is so ridiculously dick in butt [2]

It's not bad.

wish he covered a different song

wish he covered his face

same

yeah it was kind of awkward watching the video so I just minimized it

If you honestly think Tyler fucking Carter can sing this song better than JT I have no hope for you.

its andcas

I don't like the general tone of this voice. Or maybe that's just how it decided to make it sound when recording it.

Yeah he ain't got no technique.

I mean maybe I'm just saying that because I have a musical theater background in terms of technique but Tyler Carter is just way too much throat, swallows like every vowel sound, and holds a ridiculous amount of tension.

i cannot stand this moron.

don't really like his voice

it's not bad, but eh

Pretty good, but as long as we are talking about clean vocalists doing covers it should be said that Johnny Craig did a better Timberlake cover.

Why did he alter the second verse? Apart from that, it was good, though I certainly prefer the original.

Not horrible, but not very good and I want to punch his stupid face.

I'd enjoy it more if he wasn't so narcissistic

god that was awful. what's with narcissistic douchebag metalcore frontman these days?

also this shows how good JT actually is. in the wrong hands, the song can end up sounding like that OTT sappy piece of shit

Tyler Carter can sing but I don't really wanna check out this cover. Issues is good but not great. Tyler was better on Number[s] by Woe, Is Me. His cover of "Someone Like You" is fucking great though.

He can sing, huh? Yeah, I suppose autotuned vocals do sound pretty pitch perfect. But it's not a testament to his ability.

Lol

2:30 of the video

any decent person covering a song would record a 1 shot video of them performing it. instead here we have a lip synched video with overindulgent, obnoxious shots like that one. dude clearly thinks he's the shit

showmanship? the track is prerecorded and quite obviously touched up. and it's not even his song wtf

im just saying the video is overindulgent is all (his cover sucks too, but that's another matter)

certainly beats the "emotional presence" of an autotuned music video with ridiculous poses of "showmanship"

if that's what floats your boat then right on bro

i dig it. i just feel that his version is much more tasteful. it's kinda hard to pull off without going over the top i'd imagine

"all I see is a professionally shot video of a cover while exerting some charisma and showmanship"

rofl

"you're shitting on the dude for what?"

cant you fucking read he already specified what he didnt like about it. its understood that YOU enjoy the cover and YOU enjoy tyler carter, but why is it so hard for YOU to understand that not everyone else will?

is it because youre retarded?

he likes tyler carter

Just listened to this. Guy over-sings it waaaay too much. I fucking hate it when people over-sing shit. Classic case of 'American Idol Syndrome', where the singer obviously has talent but stretches it to the point of pretentious obnoxiousness. Gosh, why can't people sing skilfully, making the most of a subtle nuance, rather than just trying to make each note as technically flashy as possible. Ugh

lets all enjoy this comment one more time:

"he can sing better than jt. said it."

http://youtu.be/0DJek6L5Ekc

thats a real cover !!!

so youre saying your sensitive

like i didnt know that yet

"I WOULDVE CLICKED YOUR LINK IF YOU DIDNT MAKE FUN OF ME YOU MEANIE"

solid reading comprehension

anyways guys (not andcas, hes too sensitive to click) check out this badass cover:

http://youtu.be/0DJek6L5Ekc

Wow that was terrible.

To the guy who said he doesn't hear autotune, I have no idea why you can't hear it. I can only guess you're used to hearing it in everything and assume that's just how a human voice can sound.

It's not.

"malleus, the ronnie radke of sputnik"

god youre dumb

no.

youre dumb

Lol

youre dumb

I feel like this is getting hated because its Tyler Carter

obvious the guy can sing, I have no knowledge of proper technique, but he can sing

his face his annoying but a lot of peoples faces are annoying

and how is the tone bad? like what does that even mean

Same thing with Kellin Quinn. He can really sing, but it's too high pitched. But for high pitched vocalists he's one of the best.

Yeah Kellin gets grating quick

Yeah, andcas, there was no production on those vocals. The excessive hall reverb, for instance, was totally the beach's natural reverberations.

how do you not understand the word tone? this is a music discussion website ffs lol

That's wasn't that great.

who doesn't understand the word tone?

Pretty good.

Thanks, andcas, I try!

lol this thread turned into knife fight quick. I enjoyed the cover but I will say I thought it came off a bit narcissistic also. It's kind of understandable considering the dude probably constantly has teen scene girls all over him and telling him he's awesome and it has probably gotten to his head.

teen scene boys **

Watched this again


He isn't particularly a bad singer. Is just, this comes off as just plain PRETENTIOUS. It comes off as if he's singing the song like it was written by Paul McCartney

He has a decent voice I guess. I still hate his band.

He certainly thinks he's important

Yeah and that 2:30 shot I actually nearly pissed myself laughing. What a dork
