Fake, overdub.
Run it through an audio spectrum beside the original and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Cleaner82 - 2009-04-30 Damn, and here I was all impressed and stuff. Oh well. I shall await more concrete evidence before I rate!
|
Hugo Gorilla - 2009-04-30 I still think it's cool. Plus her face contorts like she's going to sneeze.
|
|
splatterbabble - 2009-04-30 Plus, if you study professional singers (ie:opera, choir, etc.) you'll notice a lot of tell-tale signs of fakery, like the lack of tongue and throat ululation, nostril flaring, and neck (Sternocleidomastoid) flexing.
|
dancingshadow - 2009-04-30 Also pitch is off slightly all over the place... what are you talking about.
|
|
splatterbabble - 2009-04-30 If you don't believe it's a FAKE, sync this video up to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJB5Rqc1m0Y and they are EXACT. Fakes are exact, covers are not.
|
dancingshadow - 2009-04-30 Compare 1:38 in this vid to 4:22 in the original. That's the hard bit Disneydiva can't quite do.

fluffy - 2009-04-30 She's clearly singing along with the original. This makes it hard to tell how good she would be on her own.
|
Billie_Joe_Buttfuck - 2009-04-30 So am I the only singer here who can say splatterbabble is fucking wrong?
There was nothing wrong with her facial movement, she inflected properly, he breathing was correct. His faggotry about tongue/nose is crap.
splatterbabble is a dumb faggot who failed as a singer.
he/she is also wrong
|
splatterbabble - 2009-04-30 By the way, 1:38 is STILL EXACT!
I'm gonna take my toys and go home if I don't keep getting butthurt over the ignorance of people I don't know.
DAMN YOU INTERNETS! WHY MUST YOU MAKE ME WHAT I AM!?!?
Seriously, the piece is autotuned and modulated and overproduced. It's too easy to tell it's an overdub. I think people are only rating it up to be contrary or because the WANT it to be real. It really just shows gullibility and herd mentality.
Anyhow, this was the worst part of the Fifth Element because of how crappy it sounded after the aria.

|
oddeye - 2014-04-30 Dude I analyzed her tongue movements and shit, this is FAKE.
|
AgentOrange - 2009-04-30
That is some serious brow furrowing, she is approaching john c riley levels of brow there.
|
Dharma - 2009-04-30
Go to her youtube site, if it's fake she's been faking dozens of different songs.
|
splatterbabble - 2009-04-30 It's not hard to believe that people get popular on YouTube for faking things.
|
|
glasseye - 2009-04-30
Nifty. Doesn't look (sound) like a fake to me.
|
chairsforcheap - 2009-04-30
it's 100% not fake just by listening to it.
splatterbabble is hilaaaaaaarious

splatterbabble - 2009-04-30 If you don't believe it's a FAKE, sync this video up to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJB5Rqc1m0Y and they are EXACT. Fakes are exact, covers are not.
|
Camonk - 2009-04-30 Hey dude post that exact comment one more time. I think it'll stick, if you do that.
|
splatterbabble - 2009-04-30 Shit. I better try harder. I didn't think people were actually reading.

AgentOrange - 2009-04-30
Yeah splatterbabble, you suck.
|
Billie_Joe_Buttfuck - 2009-04-30
Five because splatterbabble is a fucking retard.
Five because of splatterbabble

dementomstie - 2009-04-30
I think it's not fake because you can hear part of the original underneath her performance. It seems like she might have had to use the soundtrack to get the non-vocal part and maybe turned the vocal track way down(I have no idea if that's possible, I'm crap around anything musical) but near the end 1:50 or so, it sounds like there's a bit of a leak through where you hear both her and the original track. Maybe I'm imagining it, but it seems like it's there.
Also, damn this took an interesting turn for the comments.
|
chairsforcheap - 2009-04-30 exactly. you can hear with your own ears the original is only partially dubbed out. the fact that the girl isn't even that good makes it obvious that she's not singing the synthesized version.

AgentOrange - 2009-04-30 Please keep responding to everyone in the comments section, you are totally changing hearts and minds.

OK, I want this shit settled once and for all. When I heard this in the theater I was like "Oh, it's just a sampled vocal cuz they want to make her sound alien or whatever, that's cool." Then I read some article claiming the singer ACTUALLY sang the last part without technical aid and I could NOT fucking believe it and I have yet to see proof. So, putting this chick's video aside, has there ever been an absolute 100% proof of it either way?
|
fluffy - 2009-04-30 It sounds very sampled to me. In particular, the glissando parts, and the fact her timbre doesn't match her pitch at the extreme ends of the pitch range. I can believe that most of it was performed vocally but those parts sound excruciatingly uncanny. If that was a natural performance that she purposefully made to sound that way, then I am extremely impressed with the singer's vocal talents.
Wikipedia doesn't mention anything about the production of the song, but does go to great pains to point out that the two sections were produced as separate songs, so it's possible that they were only talking about the aria and then "deceiving through omission" or whatever.

TeenerTot - 2009-05-01 I thought it was sung by Renee Fleming, with digital alteration for the second part.

Architeuthis Tux - 2009-04-30
I'm five starring this because splatterbabble's seething nerd rage is hilarious, cute, impotent and most importantly -- likely to be quite sincere in its spurned audio-engineer-in-the-porn-industry turned down by someone with youtube videos kind of way.

5 stars for her mustache

mcsancherson - 2009-04-30 didnt watch more than 20 seconds of the video

For all the shit I take for being a wrestling fan, it has taught me well to tell the difference between a "shoot" and a "work." I call this a shoot.

It's customary for most recordings of classical pieces to be recorded note by note. That's pretty much what they did for this piece, to a level that sounds like synth. But hey, they did it to make it sound futuristic.
However, this ridiculous person is trying to recreate it in one take. A for effort, but argh... my ears...
|
Robin Kestrel - 2009-04-30
Has anybody mentioned yet if they thought this was a fake or not?
|
love - 2009-04-30
this is totally real. I made a graph.
|
halon - 2009-04-30
5 stars because I think it's real and I think splatterbabble is a dipshit

La Loco - 2009-05-01

Who cares? This movie sucked anyway. And this song sucks. Seriously, I know its like a tribute to french scifi comics but it still sucks. Chris Tucker sucks in everything except Friday and Bruce Willis sucks in everything except Pulp Fiction.
|
La Loco - 2009-05-01 Oh, and this square woman sucks too.

Camonk - 2009-11-15 Last Boyscout, you dribbling FAGGOT

Nominal - 2019-12-08 Here we had the one and only instance of La Loco breaking his routine, and it was to say that Die Hard sucks.
