There's a genre of song I can't fully place but definitely is a vibe, what is it? (lemmy.zip)

Think Creep (Acoustic), The Dog Days are Over, A Sign of The Times. It's all something deep and special that I can't exactly place, but it hits you like a god damn train sometimes.

Crooning is likely the technique you are hearing. Its a singing technique that emulates the singer being very emotionally close, right up on the mic.

    I think this is the term.

    I mean, there's obviously subgenres, and it's not like it's Dean Martin and the Rat Pack crooning anymore.

    But there's a lot of great crooning bands that are still going strong today.
