Kat Perkins of Team Adam sang “Landslide” by Stevie Nicks on The Voice season 6 Live Show, April 28, 2014 episode.
Here’s what the judges have to say about her performance.
Blake loved the layers and depth to her voice. Usher is happy that Kat got to show a different side of herself. S hakira says Stevie Nicks has mastered vibrato singing. Shakira said she delivered a good performance. |
It's funny, a lot of people poke fun at Stevie's "goat" voice... But from a technique perspective, classically the ideal is to sing with (natural) vibrato at all times because vibrato is the result of relaxed vocal cords. Nowadays in popular music the style is to typically straight tone until the very end of a note andd then kick the vibrato in, but that's a fairly unnatural way to sing - it's just something people do because that's what we think of as sounding good/right/etc. There's a certain amount of control involved in being able to turn your vibrato on and off without wrecking your voice.
