With every reaction I've seen a common thing is how quick she brings a smile to the reactor's face...she was really proud of this performance because it was her arrangement and as a listener it's cool to hear a new version of this song yet she still showed respect to the original...I liked your reaction because now I have some idea of how she draws us into the song...thank you for sharing your knowledge with us...Karl from eastern Canada ...just subscribed...👍👍👍
Hi Jen, thank you for showing us Sydnie's quality of training to produce this new cover which is so so good, too: your pauses are so interesting, they're worth it. This is almost the favourite of Sydnie's songs: a majestic step to find her way to the final, too, so rivhly deserved, but the other two songs each have their own, superb qualities too. They'll all be on her first album, indeed, too.
i have ben WAITING for this day. when u did this song. just that "old school broadway" sound she does that reminds me so much of the era of judy, liza and streisand but with a modern more vocal acrobatic sorta way. you pause as much as u need to, we are so here for your tidbits 🍿🍿🍿💝
Wonderful reaction and analysis. Sydnie makes you feel the emotion in her performances, and I too noticed the eye contact she effective used to engage the audience. I was glad you noticed it as well. BGT as well as AGT always go to great lengths in showcasing their exceptionally talented contestants. Thanks again for your exceptional analysis as I never feel upset with all the pauses because I know I am going to learn something.
Her first CD is coming out. The only thing I know is her Three songs, Tomorrow, 'My Way and Over The Rainbow', will be on it. Andrew Lloyd Webber asked her to sing one of his songs.
@@reddragonready She is singing a title song from the Express play she was in. She teased a little 1 minute clip on you tube with her boyfriend playing the piano, sounded GOOD. Sydnie I think can make any song sound good, shes that talented. Look what she did with a worn out song like Tommorrow that Simon HATES 🤯 That's what I mean 😏
This type of performances and such a great talent as Sydnie's give me chills, so positive... Precisely because we are dealing with an uncut diamond. Such a talent that, if successful, will take her to the top. I just hope that I won't fall into the abyss of this ubiquitous music crap that surrounds us everywhere today, from TV to the Internet and all the crap social media.
I love your reactions, Jenn! You give me so much insight! Shirley Bassey is who I hear in Sydnie's performance this time. Brassy, powerful, bright, filling the hall and the audience. It makes me think the Bond movie producers should sign her up to sing every future theme song. Bring back the golden age feelings of Goldfinger and Diamonds are Forever.
I don't know if I have a favorite of the three performances. Each one has its special moments. However, I do know that you have done an excellent job of reacting to and especially analyzing Sydnie's performances on BGT. I had to laugh when you mentioned the camera capturing her soft palette because I KNEW you were going to mention that. ☺
Very much enjoyed this reaction. ( Why do I feel you and Sydnie would get along great?) Anyway..this was a fun watch and I personally could not really pick a clear favorite among the 3 performances. This one does have an extremely satisfying final note but each performance was different and all incredibly impressive. Hoping to see lots more of Sydnie and consequently of your reactions.
I have heard Sydnie sing My Way over 100 times already, mainly from SUPURB reactions like yours 😍. Sydnie is AMAZING, SUPERSTAR who I think could give Adele a run for her $$$ someday.
Triple wow!!! I love the way she pronounced the word "truly" ("... she truly feels." It's like she borrowed the vocabulary of the great songstress Keely Smith for that brief moment.
Great reaction, Jen. I am one of those who prefer this song of the 3, so you did the reactions in exactly the right order in my musically uneducated book.
You may have just experienced the greatest live performance of My Way the world has ever known, and may ever know. Sydnie’s performance here is a lavish repast for the eyes, the ears, the heart and the soul that will never cloy. Thank you, Jen, for your compelling and precise analysis, delivered, as usual, with enthusiasm, poise and professionalism. May the sun shine eternally bright upon your beautiful soul, my friend.
@@GaryDouglas-lj5bz Really? Shirley is definitely one of my alltime fave singers but to me ..prior to this cover by Sydnie...this was Frank's song all the way
@@reddragonready Different strokes for different folks. I was essentially comparing Sydnie's version to other female vocalists, not to Frank or other male singers. I love most versions of this song, male or female-----with the clear exception of Miley Cyrus' whose performance of it is a detestable desecration.
@@GaryDouglas-lj5bz No offence intended..tastes differ indeed. Just saying..mine does from yours. As for male v female. I think this song was made famous mostly by Frank and to me that seems he set the standard all other covers will be compared to as to how well they sing the song and relay it's message.I dare say when Shirley sang it Frank's rendition is what she was most "up against". I feel it's fine to compare Sydnie to Frank. But again, I agree, tastes differ. 🙂 I had no idea Miley covered this song as well. As a bit of a fan of her..I will have to look for that one. Edit: I enjoyed Miley's tribute to Bill Murray but that is what it is..a tongue in cheek tribute. Not a serious cover of the song. THIS I would say is not one which should be compared to serious attempts. "detestable desecration" are some pretty strong words..words I prefer to save for Beyonce's treatment of Dolly's Jolene. ps just heard Celine's cover of My Way...that one, to me, is also, right up there with the very best.
Hey Jen. Another nice reaction video. I'm hard pressed to choose between Sydnie's three performances. All three are awesome. I would love to see what she would do with the Taylor Dayne song "Love Will Lead You Back". Taylor has those clean powerful belts like Sydnie. Have a good one. Jack
btw. I wrote to you once but I have to add something else, I discovered a new voice in the voice: Inger Lise Hope | Adagio (Lara Fabian) | Blind audition | The Voice Norway 2024 I recommend it, but one by one - watch and listen to this performance and then decide if it's worth listening to.
She IS NOT singing my highway. Her run went a little farther than she planes and there was a slight break. The lyrics are MY WAY. Not My highway. So many vocal coaches get this wrong.
LOL this is a case of "one ghostrider? I see dozens!" Sydnie very clearly makes a point about that "h" of the first "highway"and does so again at that "h" of the second "highway". Look at her face when she does so. Possibly it's not "so many vocal coaches"but you who is wrong here?
Talk less... Feel more... Start listening with your heart instead of just your ears. Technical perfection is not what has made millions of people fall in love with her. It is her personality and her unique talent to makes us feel something, when she sings. I wonder how someone can think about her soft palate, D sharp, F sharp, while listening to this great artist.
Blueridge, you don´t seem to understand what Jen is doing. She is not just "listening", but she is both listening, reacting and analyzing this masterful performance. I assure you as a singer/musician myself, she could not do this brilliant analysis if she did not listen with her heart. I wonder how someone can demand that a professional sharing her gift with us do it in another way than she chooses to do. Each to his own.
@@fluffymuffi1 I tried to check with an app on my phone..didn't indicate autotune at the auditionn. If they used autotune during auditions..why are some singers auditioning off key? Also she sang Tomorrow recently live on an open stage and that too sounded really live to me. I'd have to see Fil from Wings on Pegasus do a vid on it before I assume to know for a fact either way. But ..if this was autotuned..so were the others and Sydnie still sounds a dman sight better than them so..
@@reddragonready I certainly don't believe this was autotuned!! I was just responding to the negative comment. Sydnie tells a story when she sings these songs everyone thought they knew- and they feel them for the first time. I don't think Sydnie even realizes what she's doing that creates such a big response but I'm a total fan... and find myself singing her version of Tomorrow when I'm driving, ha ha!
Simply put, that is the Best singing performance I have ever heard (I'm 81 and I've heard a few). Absolutely STUNNING!
I agree...this is what I am here for ...keep stopping and commenting, sister! You are excellent, btw! ...Coming from a Sydnie Reaction junkie. :)
This is definitely my most favorite performance of Sydnie's journey. She never stops to amaze me. Thanks a lot for your reaction.
Sydnie doesn't sing a song - she becomes the song and the song becomes her. They become one unit. That's why her performances feel so personal.
Love your analogy and breakdown. Top notch in every way! 👍🏼👏🏼
Sydnie is so engaging. She changes up the tone, dynamics and all the other things you will be commenting on. Thank you for this review!
I’ve seen so many “vocal coach” reactions. Yours was by far the very best. I enjoyed your analysis and explanation. Thank you. I’ll be back to you.
Enjoyed your analysis and yes, this one is definitely my favorite.
With every reaction I've seen a common thing is how quick she brings a smile to the reactor's face...she was really proud of this performance because it was her arrangement and as a listener it's cool to hear a new version of this song yet she still showed respect to the original...I liked your reaction because now I have some idea of how she draws us into the song...thank you for sharing your knowledge with us...Karl from eastern Canada ...just subscribed...👍👍👍
This is my favorite of her 3 performances, and she made the arrangement, with the help of her BGT vocal coach, who she adores.
Super star is born ❤

I've heard this song 50 times, watch many reactions. Every time I hear that final My Way, I get choked up

I just find her control astonishing. I hope this opens up the career that she wanted.
Her first CD is coming out. The only thing I know is her Three songs, Tomorrow, 'My Way and Over The Rainbow', will be on it. Andrew Lloyd Webber asked her to sing one of his songs.
I really hope this isn't too rushed and then work to her disadvantage but I can't wait to hear it

😂 how could I not! Hahah
@@JenniferGlatzhofer sì, naturalmente 😂😁
Frank quite often sang on the consonants, and it's awesome that she followed his style throughout the song!! SHE IS INCREDIBLE!!
There's a video of sydnie singing someone to love by queen from 2 years ago, quite funny and young style, definitely worth a watch.
Hi Jennifer hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤

"Let's Ave It!" - thanks Jen, your insights and enthusiasm made my day brighter! 😊
Thank you!!
Waiting for the T-Shirts
She is the best singer I have ever heard and it isnt even close because of how she brings out emotions in you.
Great reaction, Jen. I am one of those who prefer this song of the 3, so you did the reactions in exactly the right order in my musically uneducated book.

I agree. I always thought Shirley Bassey's was the best, but this one is even one level above Shirley's.
Thank you!

Love your critique!
A Elvis Presley version that people forget. I love it.
I am by no means a vocal coach or an expert. However, that performance was as good as I have ever witnessed

This is Whitney meets Streisand.
For me Sydnie is this next C Dion and Enya next level artisan please give her a record deal love your reaction Jennifer
My way is an american classic but it is not an original, it is in fact an english version of a french classic original titled "comme d’habitude"
She has a mix of Liza Minnelli and Shirley Bassey
btw. I wrote to you once but I have to add something else, I discovered a new voice in the voice:
Inger Lise Hope | Adagio (Lara Fabian) | Blind audition | The Voice Norway 2024
I recommend it, but one by one - watch and listen to this performance and then decide if it's worth listening to.
Nice reaction
Frank would be proud
Final curtain is an homage to Frank Sinatra
I am agree what amandas did 👍👍👍👍
I am waiting u to reac I will servive by Puteri Ariani at Malaysia Penang
live
🤗🤗🤗🎶🎶🎶
Pleas react rimar indonesian idol lovely,,,,very amazing song
Watch her saying one night only
is there a karaoke version of her track?? i really wanna use this version for a small performance!
(youcancallmebraveheart) more liza minelli than judy garland, esp in low register

How about you watch the video first to get the effect of it then go back and dissect it
They need to remake A Star is Born and use Sydnie instead of Lady Gaga. She’s a genuine star is born
Have you seen the many versions of that movie or are you just going by the title? Because you seem to miss an important ingredient in the story there
@@reddragonready I’ve only seen the latest version with Bradley Cooper

@@Blueridge1961 I know the feeling. Sort of like when I read your first comment....
ugh....every reaction video with a "vocal coach" is grueling....they sound terrible when they try to sign themselves. lOL
And you know that because you keep watching them. Uhmmmm..okay🙄
I didn't like her "myyyy... ..highway". She basically ruined the rhyme there.
This is autotuned we all know right?
I don't believe they autotune competitions. Which is why everyone is so crazy about her.
