@parkerfmusic: Which do y’all prefer? There’s elements from both that I like more than the other! 🥀 #hadestown #vocals #thenvsnow #waitforme #broadway @Hadestown
Your vocal skills are impressive but all the embellishments distract from the actual story you are singing. The reason donal Finn’s version hits so hard is it sounds like he truly feels what his character is feeling. Too much embellishment and fluff takes away from that

The first one was giving raw and I felt the yearning, but the second one gave me goosebumps and I felt every note in my bones

2026 sounds like someone auditioning for Orpheus thinking that doing more is better. 2025 sounds like someone who has been performing the role for a year successfully

Don’t get me wrong, 2026 is impressive. But 2025 feels like Orpheus :)

the placement is so improved in 2026, but your command of the song is so much stronger in 2025. It feels like you’re chasing the beat and falling off the breaths in 2026

The 2025 played and I was in shock at how amazing it is, and then the 2026 played and my jaw was on the floor

2026 has more vocal agility and control but 2025 feels more true to the source material. I think that if you utilized more dynamics and character work it would be phenomenal.

Could you do the EXACT 2025 performance but with your improved vocal ability? The first one is more emotional, the second has more impressive rifts though! You can hear you’ve grown.

Both excellent. 2025 gave me chills, the emotion was at the surface, could hear the raw desperation.

You can hear the improvement in the tone of the second one. I wish we could hear it without all of the runs.

Jay Bear 🐻❤️ :
summer 2025 sounds like you were singing like a boy working on a song and singing for her. Summer 2026 sounds like you were singing for yourself and adding your own riffs. I prefer summer 2025. (I still love your voice, it's incredible and powerful♥️)

Absolutely honest, I really don’t like 2026 version. Too much. 2025 however, is perfect! The ‘stones’ part, amazing!

The style of the first is better…the comfort and technicality of the second is much improved. You’re more comfortable in the range and the spaces for this song which opens all sorts of options but I kinda feel like ya over did it. Don’t get it twisted you sound amazing - I’m just saying not all options need to happen (before anyone comes at me, I’d be hard pressed to do what he did which I why I can appreciate it)

You sound amazing obvi, but it feels like you care more about sounding good than singing or putting yourself into what you’re saying and conveying

Your breath control and ton actually fit way better for 2025. Riffs are impressive in 2026 but cause some breath support issues
