Brendon Urie’s gotta voice like silk and the ability to make me into a 12 year old fangirl. Â There’s a new music video for “This Is Gospel”- but the catch is the entire song is just Brendon singing at a piano. Â I literally melted when I found this out, because acoustic or stripped down Panic! is the best Panic! of all.
The video features Urie sitting at a stark white piano outside on a sunny day, and suddenly there is confetti and paint and water and spaghetti and meatballs and so many things falling from the sky, splashing on Brendon, and it’s pretty funny. Â What’s best is he keeps a straight face through it all. Â It’s a simple video, but still kept me really entertained. Â As for the song itself, it gave me chills and I could not be more awestruck about it.
I’m not sure if he has a vocal coach or not, and I assume no, but somehow his voice keeps getting better. Â The simplicity of the piano really allows him to delve deep into the warm tones of his register, stretching from sultry lows to notes that even I would have to hit in falsetto, but he manages them in chest voice. Â His range is stunning, and he seems to embrace it effortlessly. Â His voice has always been a massive draw to the band for me, and over the years, it’s only gotten stronger and more beautiful. Â Honestly, the man could be on broadway if he wanted. Â This version of “Gospel” is chilling and absolutely lovely. Â I adore it, and it only made me love Brendon more. Â It’s the best thing they’ve released in a very long time.
