  • I apologize for the wait of an upload. However I know a few of you who have asked to see my Soprano solo audition video for VC4 Bliss. I'm almost 100% positive I will not be chosen, but I sang it for fun anyways :D I almost think that I should upgrade my USB mic for it can't handle some of the high notes haha!
    Thank you so much for watching.
    I give all credit to Eric Whitacre and Peter Hollens; who created the chorus vocals.

    All i can say is that if the world heard only but a whisper of your voice, it would be a better place.

    I may not know who you are, but as a fellow musician and instrumentalist I know when to appreciate and praise God-sent talent. You have an enchanting voice and like those who have said this before, I hope you never stop singing.

    Hello Melody, God will bless you your sweet loving soul is a shining light. I pray for God to open more doors for you. Your voice is like an angel singing in heaven. I wish you so much success and blessings coming your way. Blessings keep shining Tammie

    That pretty face with that sweet smile is just so lovely, but that voice... That voice just grabs me by the soul and shakes me to my core. I listened to this and when it was done, I looked down and my hands were shaking. I've never had a voice affect me in such a profound way. To say your voice is angelic is to give far too much credit to the angels.
    And, yes, as my name implies, that is understatement. Words cannot adequately describe the quality of that voice.
    I happened across Eric's Ted Talk on the Virtual Choir and hearing your solo there, I had to find more of that wonderful voice. Keep up the great work, you are amazing.

    Very little any of can say that hasn't already been said, but you have a gift that very, very few people in this world have. This gift is what you were put on this earth for! For sharing....thank you...

    WOW what control.. My mom was an opera singer in 52 Broadway shows. The originals like Oklahoma, Porgy and Bess, Annie Get Your Gun. Her employer was Rogers and Hammerstein She also sang on the radio KDKA in Pittsburgh. At 17 she sang as a soloist at Carnegie Hall. Melody you have a TRUE GIFT!!! So effortless for you and a perfect vibrato God bless you and God also made you a very gorgeous attractive sweet young lady.,

    I don't know if it has happened already but you deserve a recording contract. You have such a beautiful, angelic voice, the world needs to hear it and know it.

  • @SugarbabyLA
    @SugarbabyLA  Před 11 lety +1

    Thank you... At least I will be a part of it, that's all I need. I don't have to be featured, for Eric is probably going to pick others - giving them the chance to shine, yes? I only sang this simply because others asked me to and I also couldn't help myself, I sang it for fun :) As I've said before, I highly doubt I'll be picked because I was for VC1, and I'm simply grateful for that. :D

  • @oxagukel
    @oxagukel Před 11 lety

    Salut Melody, j'adore votre voix et apprécie vos différentes prestations, plus particulièrement "Lux Aurumque". ... thank you for your beautifull voice. I send you lots of "bravo !" from France.

  • @OrbiliusMagister
    @OrbiliusMagister Před 11 lety

    There's no competition. I have just listened to some auditions, but you're still my favourite, because you leave those who look for easy labels (disney-lyrical-broadway etc.) without commonplace definitions: that's perfect for a project envolving all the world. Just keep being yourself, and you're going to amaze everyone.

    I know everyone has said this, more than once, and I hate to sound like a broken record, but your voice is beyond incredible. It stood out to me more than anything else out of all of the VC songs and it's just phenomenal.

  • @factor_null

    @millerexcelsior2205 Před 9 lety +4

    As Eric stated in an example when he was explaining how the process works, you have an awareness of if you nailed the key down. You have an incredible talent. Lux Aurumque ...Yep she just hit the key and you can see the confidence in that smile you gave the camera. Keep going Lady! you kick serious assets!

    How come he is not going to choose you? Your voice is special, it inspired the spirit of the human being, you have the ability to connect at a level other singers cant. IF you are that special, my question for him is: Are you not going to choose a voice can inspired millions? We never know where is the soul to unlock the unknown is science, art, etc. IF I am him. I am choosing you, to help the ones out there to created! =) GOOD LUCK!

    You really do have a very unique voice! :) Love it! haha I secretly would play your first soprano audition from VC1 and I would sing the second soprano part and I loved listening to the harmony and clashing! This was my first VC but I wish I could have done them all!

    What an amazing voice you have!!! Really incredible!!! When I am working in the office here in Holland, I listen very often some youtube music songs. Today I discovered you, and I can tell you: I was not able to work those minutes you were singing... Athough you are not chosen by E.W, I wish you all the best and keep going singing!!!

    No doubt he probably wanted to choose you for this one, but figured he maybe wanted to give other people the opportunity as well.

  • @DanSarka_AKA_RabidHamster

    I love your voice! I save up all the virtual choir videos but I always hope to see your face in one of the solo spots. T_T My favourite video is still the first one, especially when you hit that G with a smile like boss! But the VC4 soloists were great, too, well-chosen...why can't there be 9..or 10 spots instead....but I guess there are some consistencies in vocal music that they have to adhere to, I don't know *noob*... Hope to see you solo in the next VC!!
