    Thank you for the sincere and honest reaction. Clearly you have a special connection with Simon & Garfunkel's original version and nothing can replace the personal feelings. No need to apologize. I can tell you that Sohyang's cover brought a pool of tears from a 50 -year-old man. We find the supportive hand that reached out touch our inner soul. Sohyang has done that for me and we all can have our guardian angel that fits our life experience.
    Cheers.

    Oh my goodness! I had listened to Sohiang but not performing this song. Delicate voice at the begining and then crystal clear and powerful voice at the same time since the song keeps going. And her last note and vibrato is, ..., I don't find any words. Bravo! 👏👏 Take care Charlene.

    Thank you, beautiful lady, for your respectful, honest opinion. Everybody has their own preference. Furthermore, I sincerely appreciate that you really listened to the entire song without any unnecessary pauses or interruptions. I look forward to more of your reactions.
    I'm happy to be a new subscriber.

    You are not offending me in any way. Sohyang's perfs can be hit or miss even to a fan like us. Having been obsessed in watching her reaction since 2019, I prefer genuine reaction with respect to her rather than just empty insincere praise. I adore the original but this rendition holds significant meaning to me so it's normal that I side with her version more. I am thankful that you don't disregard the other aspects in the song. Thank you for your reaction and looking forward to seeing more in the future 😊😊😊

      I am no upset either! I did have tears when I first heard her but felt melancholy for past memories! But now I have new memories with her version!
      I h as be learnt of her character and struggles and truly admire her choices to turn down big Record companies 3 times and small once to ! She doesn’t sing to show off but sings the best she can to lift us up and to glorify God for saving her life! I always love Simon and Garfunkel’s original version and still do on occasion !
      Here is a song of praise, a modern gospel if you will , this is SoHyang at her finest and happiest

    New Sub. This was a Contest. This WAS intended to be a mind-blowing exhibition of her abilities. She has a number of spectacular stage appearances - ALL in Contests. She has done other Classic songs and treated them in a gentler fashion. But, her best performances are often in this kind of competitive setting - where she blows the roof off. She does her own arrangements, so you are seeing her genius in full view. Comparing her talent or treatment of songs is a mistake. Sohyang does NOT sing. She has a God-given musical instrument and has learned to play it in the same way that a virtuoso violinist plays a Stradivarius. That is why she never strains for notes or grows tired. More Sohyang, please.
    Cheers.

    I like Simon and Garfunkel's version but I love So Hyang's version. It gives me chills and gets me in the feels. Everybody is different when it comes to music.

    She is the best female vocalist in this world. Michael Bolton had a concert in Korea 2023, and she sang "Oh Holy Night" there, which was so powerful. czcams.com/video/XCRT1qrNdIE/video.html
    Another is "Upon this Rock," which she sang at the concert. czcams.com/video/m9gSi3yk6g0/video.html
    You have to listen to her best performance "everyone"

    Thank you for reacting to Sohyang. I love both versions. Paul Simon said the song was inspired by the gospel music he was hearing at the time. The original has a subtle gospel sound, and it’s a popular church song. Sohyang is a gospel singer, and this show was a contest. She had to go big.💥 One thing I love about her is that she sings with her entire heart and soul. I can see it on her face. I guess we disagree about that, which is ok. Thanks for the honest reaction. 🙏

  • @joandsarah77
    @joandsarah77 Před měsícem +8

    Immortal Songs 2 is a competition and the artists who are invited onto it have to pick a song from that shows theme and rearrange it. So if its on this show it will never be a straight cover.
    Not upset but I disagree that the emotion wasn't there, I have always seen this as Sohyang singing about her journey through cancer and how God was her bridge. The emotion involved is simply different to the original. But you can't help what you do or don't like.
    If you react to more English songs from this show such as 'You Raise me Up' and 'Lean on me', be prepared that they are also rearranged.

    한가지 주제를 주며 그에 맞는 노래와 편곡으로 노래대결을 해서
    우승자를 뽑습니다
    외국사람들은 원곡과 자꾸 비교하는데
    소향은 한국 시청자들을 위해 원곡을 훼손하지 않는 방법으로 편곡해서 부른 것입니다
    그녀의 커버곡들이 원곡보다 좋다는 반응들이 많습니다 오로지 소향본인만의 방식으로 불렀죠
    반응해주셔서 감사합니다

      I can rant for days about those and I feel so sad that Sohyang herself will occasionally come by and watch those reactions when she feels down or low. I don't expect all reactors to be kind or praising her work like she's untouchable. At least please have some decency and respect to the vocalists in the performance. Subjective preferences is all fine, but trashtalking and inappropriate remarks (too much on the look and unnecessary comparison) are no-go to me.

    It is kind of about showing off when you are competing against other singers. I love both the original and this cover for different reasons. I like when singers pay respect to the original and the make it their own. So, in context this is exactly how this song should have been sung. I think Simon & Garfunkel would have been pleased with the direction this version took. Of course everyone is entitled to have a favorite.

      My perception is that she has a spectacular voice and is a beautiful person. I never said anything bad about her singing.

  • @JetBrews
    @JetBrews Před měsícem

    I think you just can't get past the original and the memories that are attached to that song. That's your downside. Learn to appreciate different values and not hold it to the original. This was a competition singing show. Why do you react to covers when they're just that - COVERS. They are not going to give you the exact replica /vibes of the any original. Please be more open and aware of what you're doing before you just block it off immediately because it doesn't evoke the same emotion as the original. That's probably one of the stupidest things I've heard anyone say while reacting to a cover.

    • @RetroToMetroReactions
      @RetroToMetroReactions  Před měsícem

      Thank you for your feedback. I am actually open to covers and I even love her vocals. All I was saying is the original holds a special place in my heart. I didn’t say it was better or worse, just my preference which is why I am here. To give *my* honest reaction.
