Human voice

The human voice consists of sound made by a human being using the vocal folds for talking, singing, laughing, crying, screaming etc. The human voice is specifically a part of human sound production in which the vocal folds (vocal cords) are the primary sound source. Generally speaking, the mechanism for generating the human voice can be subdivided into three parts; the lungs, the vocal folds within the larynx, and the articulators. The lung (the pump) must produce adequate airflow and air pressure to vibrate vocal folds (this air pressure is the fuel of the voice). The vocal folds (vocal cords) are a vibrating valve that chops up the airflow from the lungs into audible pulses that form the laryngeal sound source. The muscles of the larynx adjust the length and tension of the vocal folds to ‘fine-tune’ pitch and tone. The articulators (the parts of the vocal tract above the larynx consisting of tongue, palate, cheek, lips, etc.) articulate and filter the sound emanating from the larynx and to some degree can interact with the laryngeal airflow to strengthen it or weaken it as a sound source.

Love Me Harder

"Love Me Harder" is a song recorded by American singer Ariana Grande and Canadian singer The Weeknd. It was released by Republic Records on September 30, 2014 as the fourth single from Grande's second studio album, My Everything (2014). The Weeknd co-wrote the song along with Max Martin, Savan Kotecha, Ahmad Balshe, Peter Svensson, and Ali Payami; the latter two also co-produced it with Carolina Liar drummer Peter Carlsson.

"Love Me Harder" was hailed by critics, praising its mature sound and the pairing between Grande and The Weeknd. It was called the best song from My Everything by several critics. The song peaked at number 7 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Ariana Grande's fifth overall top 10 single and fourth from My Everything. By becoming her fourth top ten single, Grande has the most top 10 singles in 2014. The song is also The Weeknd's first top 10 single on the chart, as well as his first top 40 entry.

Background

The collaboration between Grande and The Weeknd was pushed by their mutual label, Republic Records. Grande and The Weeknd were up-and-coming artists in 2013, with both releasing their debut albums that year. In an interview with Billboard, Republic Records EVP Charlie Walk stated, "The Weeknd is positioned to be best new artist of 2014. He is that guy." In October 2014, Walk admitted that the collaboration was part of a plan to promote The Weeknd, saying, "It's no accident that the new Ariana track features The Weeknd. That's strategic, because he's about to blow up with his own record."
