Yes! From the time Amber sang Jazmine Sullivan's song "Bust Your Windows" on Glee, I have admired her. Loved it when Amber danced with Derek Hough on "Dancing with the Stars".
All Gleeks be like 'Mer-figgin-cedes!!!' from the very first note on the Perfect number. I'm sooo happy she won! She embodied the Mercedes of Glee: The Greatest Singer.
@@luanrenato907she won the Laurence Olivier Award for playing Effie in the West End production of Dreamgirls, NOT the Tony. It’s the top British theatre award.
The way she reversioned "about damn time" was masterfully done, she made it her own And I started screaming at "edge of glory" got some troubletones vibes
That full house cover was something of mastery! I mean every performance was absolved breath taking and phenomenal, but man, I had chills the whole time she sang “everywhere you look” and that opt up in “carry you home” was like WHOA!
Knew it was her from the jump....but The Edge of Glory is what really sold me. One of my all time favorite songs from Glee. I loved her and Naya's voices in that song. 😭💜
Anyone who has seen Glee knew who this was INSTANTLY. I seriously was like "oh it's Amber!" after the first sentence of the first song. I do miss hearing her sing all the time so this made me really happy.
Seeing this compilation, there’s absolutely no doubt that the right person won! Congrats AR! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. You are such an unbelievable and amazing talent. 💙
For either Season 9 or Season 10, they need to do an All Star Season where every 2nd and 3rd place winners from each Season have another chance to compete for 1st place, and the 1st place winners from each Season are a guest judge.
Thank you for this ❤ sometimes I need a reminder of all the many blessings and opportunities I’ve been afforded and that people still like to hear me sing. God bless ❤
Yes Ma’am! You are incredible. I have never seen one episode of Glee, but became a CZcams Gleek because of you. Your voice is truly incredible. Thank you for sharing your gift with the world.
Amber I've always thought you were underrated. You have an amazing beautiful voice and because of Glee I knew who you were. I love me some you and how talented you are❤
I had such a great time watching this season, the first time I heard her sing I knew it was Amber and she was incredible! I've followed this girl since Glee, The Wiz and everything she does and she's spectacular! Congratulations Amber, you deserve it!
This gleek knew her voice right away.. don’t misunderstand me because I don’t mean that she’s only known for doing Glee. She is definitely way more than glee. It’s just that I am so used to her voice going all the way back to Glee which is where I was first introduced to her. . Edge of glory was what fully cemented my guess. I definitely had no doubt because of when she performed it on glee and I’m like “there is no denying that that is Mercedes”. Sorry I had to refer to the character for a minute. All my rambling aside, Amber is even more talented than I ever realized.. funny thing is I didn’t even watch Masked Singer this season. It was right to the finale and I’m like you know what I’m gonna go back and watch everything before they announce the winner and I immediately knew who she was. Congrats Amber!!!
I knew it was Amber from the first note. She is such an amazing talent. I’m a Glee fan and lived for all of her performances. She’s just awesome and a sweet person. Congratulations 🎉🎈🍾!
Abso-freaking-lutely deserved to take home that trophy. Been a fan since GLEE and always felt she was the best voice on the show. Her control is legendary right up there with Whitney Houston. I hope she achieves the fame and superstardom she deserves. Her name and voice should be known worldwide.
That full house cover was something of mastery! I mean every performance was absolved breath taking and phenomenal, but man, I had chills the whole time she sang “everywhere you look” and that opt-up in “carry you home” was like WHOA! I Have seen it in Glee People I know that is my playlist I made to her all the movies she was in it so that Harp act was good was awesome I have no words thanks.
I don’t watch this show. It was playing on Thanksgiving, I heard one note and knew it was Amber Riley. #gleek Watching this video made me notice all the Glee nods. Congratulations, Amber
So honestly, the first few words that came out of this beautiful and talented Ladys mouth, was obvious.. My family and I knew immediately. We were iterally talking and shouting her name over one another. We wanted to be the first to recognize her. She's just so damn talented and blessed with a true gift from a higher power!
I keep going back to 7:26..... I mean over and over... This performance evokes so much emotion out of me... It reminds me of the simplest times of my childhood. Coming home from school and turning on reruns until my mom came home from work. Back when things weren't nearly as cloudy and difficult. Ugh just UGH 😢❤❤

Love her since glee and dwts ,best singer and vocalist
Yes! From the time Amber sang Jazmine Sullivan's song "Bust Your Windows" on Glee, I have admired her. Loved it when Amber danced with Derek Hough on "Dancing with the Stars".
It’s instant in my opinion to recognize her glamorous voice. Especially in I Have Nothing, reminded me of her cover of And I’m Telling You.
As soon as she started to sing I have nothing I could tell it was Amber Riley
Muito obrigada! Entrei nos comentários buscando exatamente isso e o nome dessa cantora❤
You could tell it was Amber by the first note.
Omg! Yes! I was immediately like, “Oh that’s Amber Riley from Glee.”
That was my guess just from her walking on stage, the voice just confirmed it.
Agreed! I was like ohhhh Amber!!! Love her!!
Especially if you watched Glee she is outstanding!
Bruh when he said Jennifer Hudson I was like really😂
All Gleeks be like 'Mer-figgin-cedes!!!' from the very first note on the Perfect number. I'm sooo happy she won! She embodied the Mercedes of Glee: The Greatest Singer.
Yep, exactly how it went😂
I would have never watched the show again if she would’ve lost!!
She even did her own song from Glee lol. Nobody was fooled.
listen..from the first note i knew it was her Gleek for life
Only voice I knew right away or at all from all seasons the second she opened her mouth lol
This beautiful lady is a triple threat. She can sing, act and dance. She also won Dancing With The Stars.
And she also won a Tony for her role on dreamgirls... ❤❤❤❤
@@luanrenato907 ?? You talking about jennifer hudson lol
@@LaLa_0226 No amber did win a Tony for dream girls
@@luanrenato907she won the Laurence Olivier Award for playing Effie in the West End production of Dreamgirls, NOT the Tony. It’s the top British theatre award.
This lady deserves way more recognition than what she gets she needs to be acknoledged as any real big artist
You saw how hard she went in Dancing With The Stars.
@@omarcogle1965 yes and i still believe she deserves more recognition
@@Whitewolf1827 True, we've also seen her acting range so far too.
@@omarcogle1965 shes a triple threat everyone who knows her knows that still she needs more recognition
She’s BADDDDD!!!
She opened her mouth and I SCREAMED. Glee superfan here. This was INSANE 😭😭
The way she reversioned "about damn time" was masterfully done, she made it her own
And I started screaming at "edge of glory" got some troubletones vibes
She's basically paid homages to both Mercedes and Kurt of Season 3 Glee when she sung I Have Nothing, and Edge Of Glory.
@@omarcogle1965 oh yeah you're right
Kurt did sing that to his father 😭
Omg I love them so much
@@PabloEmanuel96 No, Kurt sung "I have nothing" to Blaine after being accused of cheating on him.
@@omarcogle1965 wrong
did y’all hear the way she threw “the edge” from all the way down to out the building? she really said yeet with that note😂🥵❤️🔥
I’m just gonna say it. With every performance, Amber Riley proved that she deserved to win! I got chills with every performance.
Have you seen Jellyfish UK? She sounds even better there to me
I don't care what anyone says. She's the best singer of our generation.
SHE IS THE MILLENNIAL DIVA! SINCE GLEE SHE HAS BEEN THE UPPER ECHELON OF WHAT I CONSIDER VOCALIST!!!
Jazmine Sullivan might have that spot for me, but amber is up there.
lol
She is absolutely phenomenal!
One of the best singers for sure
Teared up when she sang "Edge of Glory". Made me think of Her and Naya Rivera singing the song in Glee
Same!!!
I love how she gave a hint with most of her songs as someone who grew up watching glee.
The last note of Born To Be Wild was NASTY !!!! 🤯🤯‼️ True Vocalist
Who else can cover a Whitney song like that?!? Nobody but Amber 👸🏽
Glennis Grace...
I love her but Go check out Angelina Jordan's Version of this
That full house cover was something of mastery! I mean every performance was absolved breath taking and phenomenal, but man, I had chills the whole time she sang “everywhere you look” and that opt up in “carry you home” was like WHOA!
I’m just waiting for her to sing The Bill Rights, she’s versatile ! 😂😂😂 Love it ❤❤
they playin on her time😭 she holding back on all these performances and still won
This was like a concert with Amber Riley her approach to these songs were amazing . The Full House Theme captivating.
R&B heads knew this was amber from note one! Go girl! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 The return of true vocalists is coming
I grew up watching Glee and knew it was her the minute she started singing. Idk how the judges didn't know her
I don’t know what an R&B head is, but I know you’re an idiot for posting a spoiler in the comments!
Amber's is a blessing.There is nothing like a singing voice I agree
@@tandfadams5535 that proves how underated she is
Knew it was her from the jump....but The Edge of Glory is what really sold me. One of my all time favorite songs from Glee. I loved her and Naya's voices in that song. 😭💜
Me too 👌🏻 I would have loved to see Naya doing this show 💜
Not going to lie, I watch this on repeat. Thanks for putting this together.
Couldn’t contain myself when she started singing Edge of Glory… Gleeks know… R.I.P Naya ❤🥹
Amber Riley is a Queen 👑 Her voice is golden, her talent is out of this world!
I love the "Gravity" performance. It moved me along with her choir 😇😇😇
She turned that song to full on gospel. Goosebumps.
Amber was beyond flawless in all of these performances. Her end note on "Born To Be Wild" and the entire "Gravity" performance were my favorites 😍
Anyone who has seen Glee knew who this was INSTANTLY. I seriously was like "oh it's Amber!" after the first sentence of the first song. I do miss hearing her sing all the time so this made me really happy.
If you’re a true Gleek, you knew this was Amber right away. So glad she won, she deserved this so much. I absolutely LOVE her! 🥰❤️
Amber has such an amazing voice. She is definitely one of the greatest voices up there with Whitney Houston. She gives me chills!
Nice spoiler in the top comments. Thanks!
Exactly. Give me chills too. There is something very special about her voice, but I can't explain it.
her rendition of gravity was stunning.
that was the jackpot shot right there! that’s the song I felt that sealed the win.
Seeing this compilation, there’s absolutely no doubt that the right person won! Congrats AR! Thank you for sharing your gift with us. You are such an unbelievable and amazing talent. 💙

I knew she'd win. They always show the winner more from the beginning.
Her gravity performance may go down as my number 1 perfermance of any show. legit made my tear up and jump out of my couch.
Thank you for this ❤ sometimes I need a reminder of all the many blessings and opportunities I’ve been afforded and that people still like to hear me sing. God bless ❤

Replay button has been murdered 😂❤❤❤❤
Her voice is absolutely perfection and the range and control was out of this world!!!
She was 100% the best singer on Glee
True ❤
I had such a great time watching this season, the first time I heard her sing I knew it was Amber and she was incredible! I've followed this girl since Glee, The Wiz and everything she does and she's spectacular! Congratulations Amber, you deserve it!
It's sooo good to see other people watching her performances and realizing how talentes she is, I could not be happier for her.
SHE HAS THE MOST AMAZING VOICE. I HAVE NOTHING Performance Brought ME TO TEARS❤❤❤
She’s amazing! She killed I have nothing! Her tone is so good! Wishing her much happiness and success
3:32 the crowd reactions to I Have Nothing are hilarious cus same 😭
Amber is the really thing. She can act, dance and sing. Love her❤
This gleek knew her voice right away.. don’t misunderstand me because I don’t mean that she’s only known for doing Glee. She is definitely way more than glee.

With the right projects, she could get an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony awards!
That gravity performance should have won an Emmy at least
Does she really have none of those? She deserves them all.
@@tonyxiong7745 someone in the comments said she have a tony award I got to look it up
I think she won a Tony for Dream Girls the musical
I need “Thank You for Being a Friend” and “everywhere you look” Amber Riley’s versions. It songs touched my soul. ❤❤❤
“IT’S AMBER RILEY!”
*Pretends to be surprised as if I didn’t know from the first note from her first performance*
Gravity (I know I’m late) you took me to another realm! Love you as an artist as an actor.
Even tho I knew it was amber it was still an amazing season of performances by her !
Not everyone knows who it is, don’t put spoilers in the comments! Idiots I swear!
@@austinheidbreder4313well duh their gonna discuss it being her?? don’t look at the comments then
Abso-freaking-lutely deserved to take home that trophy. Been a fan since GLEE and always felt she was the best voice on the show. Her control is legendary right up there with Whitney Houston. I hope she achieves the fame and superstardom she deserves. Her name and voice should be known worldwide.
CONGRATULATIONS AMBER. YOU ARE VERY GIFTED. I felt your soul all the way.
The first note gave it away for me… the second was the “park and bark” ❤
I was so obsessed with Glee. And Amber was my favorite singer on the show. I knew the second she sang the first line of Perfect!
She wins all competitions - dance or sing, no chance agains Amber
These all the solos Rachel berry neva wanted Mercedes to have 🫣🥴
That full house cover was something of mastery! I mean every performance was absolved breath taking and phenomenal, but man, I had chills the whole time she sang “everywhere you look” and that opt-up in “carry you home” was like WHOA! I Have seen it in Glee People I know that is my playlist I made to her all the movies she was in it so that Harp act was good was awesome I have no words thanks.
She sang some of these songs on glee but her singing them now is even better like I love amber Riley ❤
Literally crying at all her performances 😭😭😭 sooooo gooooood
I think she is the best singer in our world. Why doesn't she get the recognaition she deserved?!
the joy she brings me can’t be explained 😭
I don’t watch this show. It was playing on Thanksgiving, I heard one note and knew it was Amber Riley. #gleek Watching this video made me notice all the Glee nods. Congratulations, Amber
I don’t watch this show, just discovered it today. Didn’t expect an actual Virtuoso. 😮
Yaaaaaassss! She is a vocal beast! Her gift is a God Gift🎉
She’s so amazing!!! I really couldn’t help but to break down when she sang Gravity by John Mayer. Just so touching and beautifully sang! 🥹😭😭❤️
First moment I knew it was Amber.... Her voice is recognized
The Gravity performance brought it all home! Wow! 🔥🔥
Edge of glory makes me think of her and Naya 😢 the best due !! Every duet they did was chiefs kiss 💋
I didn’t rewatch Glee the amount of times I did and put her songs on repeat, to not know this was queen mercedes jones / amber riley 👏🏻👏🏻
What.. Amber..never would’ve guessed.. 😅. All those years of glee, dream girls the play I’ve seen.. 😂
Oh yeah you could tell by the first performance.
Exactly 😂
And don't forget she added Dancing With The Stars to her resume.
So honestly, the first few words that came out of this beautiful and talented Ladys mouth, was obvious..
My family and I knew immediately. We were iterally talking and shouting her name over one another.
We wanted to be the first to recognize her.
She's just so damn talented and blessed with a true gift from a higher power!
I have full body chills😍
Amber you have a 'harp' of gold🧡
i knew it was her the minute she opened her mouth. one of the only voices to hit my soul that hard is Amber Riley’s❤
After Glee, I can recognise her voice in my sleep
I need more Amber Riley! 🙏🔥💪👑😍 Every performance was SIMPLY STUNNING. 😯🤯🙃
I like The Masked Singers. The winners aren't always "Country Singers" unlike some show who thinks every voice needs to be "Country".
Lmao 💀
I feel happy!!!! She does plan on Making an album of covers right?! cause GIRLL!!! Id buy that a thousand times if i could
Look for the glee albuns, they are full of covers
Gleeks be like: That's Mercedes Jones right thereeeee
Well, didnt expect to cry my eyes out watching this. Im so proud of her and happy to see her unbelievable talent recognized ❤
Such a huge fan. Knew from the first song. So happy to se her here ❤
Esta mujer se merece todo! Es IMPRESIONATE. Bellísima actriz y Artista. ❤ Mercedes siempre en el corazón. Escucharte es un Placer. 😍
The performance of the edge of glory completely crushed every single doubt about the fact she is dame Amber! Ah and she also sang that song in Glee
Goòooooosebumps. Amber will give you shivers with those high notes.
Everywhere you look brought me to tears!
The best part of it is that now I know how glee would sound with new songs
I keep going back to 7:26.....
I mean over and over... This performance evokes so much emotion out of me...
It reminds me of the simplest times of my childhood.
Coming home from school and turning on reruns until my mom came home from work.
Back when things weren't nearly as cloudy and difficult.
Ugh just UGH 😢❤❤
Amber upper register and falsetto is what gave her away for me….she is beyond amazing!
Thank you for this compilation 💞
Shes a great singer
Watch her win the prize on dancing with the stars!
She dances as good as she sings too,!
Amazing!!!
how underated she is ... She is so good
She slayed gravity ❤
❤🎉🎉😊MERECEDORA DE GANHAR!!! CANTA MTOOOO. ❤🎉❤❤
We the glee lovers can already tell that the harp is Amber Riley right from her first note
What VOICE and an amazing singer!
#TRANSCENDING
The note Amber hit at 3:05 and 3:37 is unmatched!!!
I used to love Glee so, yeah, I knew. She’s amazing.
The Gleeks knew.😅
