Smother Em Eh 6,824 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 There is a certain tone Gaga has on some songs on BTW that she hasn’t had ever since that I need help identifying how she sings it. I wanna know what it’s called. I think it’s kinda like a nasally and darker tone maybe I’m not sure. It’s in songs like Marry The Night when she sings, “Lace up my boots, put on some leather and cruise”. On Judas in the beginning the “Oh Ah Ohhhh”. On TEOG when she sings, “There ain’t no reason you and be should be alone”. And on Highway Unicorn when she sings, “Smoking under her toes”. It’s the certain enunciation of “boots” on MTN, “alone” on TEOG and “toes” on Highway Unicorn. The certain way and tone she sings it in. To me it’s very uniquely Gaga and I don’t know how to describe the tone and the way she sings it. Can someone help Identify the way she sings it like light, airy, deep, dark and is it “head voice” or “chest voice” etc. Anyone know what I’m talking about here and can help me?

Daylight Jokers 14,958 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I love her BTW tone so much. It's very gritty and soulful yet controlled. This part (the word 'Marry') in her Alan Carr MTN performance is one of my favorite vocal moments from her: Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid AT 78 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 It's just the timbre of her voice at that time. Nothing to do with the head voice. Her voice since then has naturally become deeper. Women's voices change over time. She was 25 then, she's almost 35 now. "I was protected by the monks of Azarath, I was raised by my friends.

Twitter 14 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I know exactly what you’re talking about. It’s like a raspy yet soulful vocal. Miss when Gaga mastered this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then Deep/ Dark (Aura, Dope, Applause) to soft (Sexxx Dreams, Jewels n Drugs verses, ARTPOP, Gypsy verses etc) to light rich and full and powerhouse sounding and soft on Joanne then deep, dark, light etc. on Chromatica. She has so many different “tones”. Get Applause & G.U.Y to 1B views! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHROMATICON 2,068 Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 She’s just using a very common technique that is used a lot in soul and rock music, I don’t think it has a name tho, but what she does is make her voice a little deeper in an specific vowel and placing the air that's coming out at the top of her palate, that way is sounds deeper and richer, with more attitude and personality.

I've always taken tone to mean just the basic sound that someone makes. All singers sing the same notes, but no two sound exactly the same. I don't think Gaga makes the most distinctive sound I've ever heard, but I do think she makes a beautiful sound, and there is a consistency to it regardless of whether she's singing Marry The Night or a piece of jazz or tell me something boy.
