started off rather plain, more of a singing around the house kinda nice. then when she took it up you could feel it, she's a singer that needs the more powerful songs and not rely on the softer style. other than that, beautiful woman that I would listen to talk all day long.
Sad that she wrote the song and the performer had no clue who she was, and then didn't even think she was good enough to be on his team. He's an amazing artist but he had no clue that her song made him millions! That should be embarrassing af for him. Song writers need more credit.
You people need to calm down. See this things happen more often than we think. It's rather unfortunate be calm before quickly making points. Alot of artists at times don't know some of the writers, the same way producers don't get alot of recognition..
I get it but I don't agree. The sound of a song is by far the best thing and most important thing. I know and love songs that I still don't know the words to.
That goes to show you people write songs and the artists gets them and the writer never get no recognition for it he didn't even know she wrote the song ,but god timing is always on time ❤
@@aminabouba9730 Yup. She should have. Her voice is good but not very strong. Tom has a unique voice that works best in certain parameters as well so I think he would have helped her find the right songs (unlike the one she auditioned on!)
I think Tom had too much experience. When people are very young they are stuck on age. They don't know how to connect to older people. Unless it's their own grandma or something like that
GIRL …. DONT EVER GIVE-UP !; YOU ARE SO SO BEAUTIFUL ….( YOUR SOUL!!) everything about you !you rock you have everything they have.!….You’ve got that “thing” (and I’m just a simple person in San Diego.!!)👍❤️😘🙏🌺
I remember watching the Bruno Mars Doo-Wops & Hooligans Tour in Glasgow on the 31st October 2011 and Tanya Lacey was the opening act. Remember her featuring in Loick Essien’s song How We Roll, great memories!
Tanya seems like she has been through the wringer, as so many talented artists do. So glad she took that step back and refocused on her life and ambitions but hasn’t given up on being where she wants to be. I wish she hadn’t included the story of her connection to Will in her pre-performance package…think it would have had more impact if she had announced that on stage after her audition. Glad that Sir Tom and Gavin turned for her…sad that Will didn’t even though he seemed he wanted to…think song choice was the issue with that. Loved Gavin’s pitch…seemed so heartfelt.
Wow I can relate to this as an artist. Going flat. Things drying up. Redirecting then finding your creative pulse again. To all the artist- you’re unique and special in your gifts. Keep going. The world needs you. ❤❤
All these ppl commenting that they didnt care for her, my thoughts, she sounded like this could be her song, her speaking and singing voice have great character and to get a turn from Tom Jones AND a standing ovation from him too, means she has a gift and a talent!
she has a great voice. i guess for me, she could've picked a song that suits her phenomenal voice better. i felt like this song didn't highlight it much. but i love the raspiness of her voice. it's one of those sounds that has character and is easily recognizable when you hear it.
You are exquisitely beautiful. Not just in your looks, but even more so in your story. Please member it's our story that inspires others as that is how they see our true beauty. So please keep writing and telling yours. Thank You for sharing.
Once in a while I hear a voice that gives me goosebumps of Cosmic Harmony and I Feel that Voice and that person is going to be a Bright Shining Star for years to come. This lady has what it takes . I hope her mentors give her the wind beneath her Wings she needs. Namaste. Carpe Diem.
The funniest thing about this one is that Will was pushing for others to turn for her, and he suddenly realised that it was an easy victory to take her and knew what she was capable of.
TBF I get it. Nothing in the sound or song choice really sounded like his specialty. That had Tom written all over it. It wasn't until he saw her that he probably thought "maybe I have some commonalities with this person."
Best wishes!! But did you see the season when Tom was the only one that turned for a contestant and she won it all? Tom is the man! Edited: Ruti Olajugbagbe - Season 7 of The Voice UK 2018.
She has a great ability! I would have chosen Tom because he has a lifetime of experience and there won't be a whole lot of opportunity left to mentor with him in this lifetime!
That your time girl. Things will happen this time. You are so talented with a unique voice..You are good enough. You're a nice soul and God is there for you. Much success and God bless you 🙏💐💗
Not trying to criticize, because it was probably all the nerves….but I did hear a bit of pitch glitch in the first few seconds before she exploded. Once she got into it, phenomenal
I am so proud of you, Tanya Lacey. Your life went through the throughs and glitches of life...because we are all only human. You are The Phoenix who is and are rising from the ashes...which is called "Life" and "Living in this life"!! I am so glad that you rose again. Now go slay all, and never ever doubt yourself again ! God has shown you what to dc...now, keep on keeping on!!🙏🙏👊👊💕💕💕
Exactly, great singers are a dime a dozen in that industry. All the singers are willing to go hard and work hard but timing and luck is everything in everything.
This is so incredibly wonderful. I enjoyed the video very much. I would have loved to have been able to share this with my dad. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2016. He loved jazz….and I know he would have appreciated your dad’s ability to play with you! God Bless….Music is such a rewarding and beautiful thing to enjoy your whole life.
I see your point, but let's not exaggerate...he did not make "millions" off her. Her song was a stand alone on iTunes, never included on his album, and didn't chart well. It probably cost more to buy the demo than profit from the song. Plus she's not listed as a writer, which means she sold the draft to them (full release, 1 time fee, no residuals) and they re-worked it.
They were so great together. Beautiful voice Salli and no need to say but I will…Tom’s is the bomb always! Can’t wait to see him in September at Mohegan Sun CT! So excited.
I'm so excited that you're going to General Conference!! I have no doubt it will be a life changing experience and I cant wait to hear your feelings about the experience.
Tanya,you are a strong woman,I love the way you express yourself. Ye are enough just as ye are beautiful lady ... Ye got back on that horse when ye fell off ...gutsy lady...
Im not sure how that all works different for each song writer I guess ..I personally know a song writer wrote a song back in the late 70s that still gets a check every month for royalties..3 to 5000 a month based on air play. He gets a break down of where it's played it's still seems to be a popular song in Europe that's where most of the play is .
Actually you are incorrect. Song writers are the ones who Always get paid. If the song is ever covered again by another artist, only the song writer gets a check.
@@torresilk4277They met when Tom was invited to Hollywood to appear on TV. Elvis was filming a movie and asked to meet Tom then, when they met, sang one of Tom's songs to him. Tom has talked about this many times, most notably on the Graham Norton show , if you want to watch it. They remained great friends, even vacationing together with their wives.
@@tamupiwanashe1974 that season was sick 🤩😁😁 then from out the show stopped running-I don’t know if the voice uk is back again or not but nonetheless it don’t feel the same any more, I lost interest in watching in the end along with many other things also 🫣😅
One of my most favorite songs hearing that took me back to my teen years I think I may have sang that song at karaoke once-she sang fantastic love her style ❤❤❤
What did you think of Tanya's Blind Audition? ✌
Amazing
Слабое выступление
Totally beautiful fantastic singer 💚🙏
Sounded pretty good, just unfortunate that these shows are rigged.
started off rather plain, more of a singing around the house kinda nice. then when she took it up you could feel it, she's a singer that needs the more powerful songs and not rely on the softer style.
other than that, beautiful woman that I would listen to talk all day long.
Sad that she wrote the song and the performer had no clue who she was, and then didn't even think she was good enough to be on his team. He's an amazing artist but he had no clue that her song made him millions! That should be embarrassing af for him. Song writers need more credit.
Song writing and vocal performance are two very different things..
Agreed. One takes skill and the other one takes genetics/autotune
You people need to calm down. See this things happen more often than we think. It's rather unfortunate be calm before quickly making points. Alot of artists at times don't know some of the writers, the same way producers don't get alot of recognition..
Is the show “the voice” or “the writer”?
Quite normal in the pop world
Tom has every right to say what he did. It’s absolutely true and the other judges can’t argue with it. He’s a legend among legends. 😊
She should have chosen Tom
@@Silverlily61 - Yeah, I wanted her to pick him, too. But I figured she'd go with the other guy because her family members were rooting for him.
She has a beautiful speaking voice. I could probably listen to her talk all day.
she's gonna be a good narrator or story teller on a movie
she really does, her voice is very clear.
Love that Gavin tells him to say thank you to her ❤
That was not necessary coz he already said it before him
@SRJ419 No he didn't. He didn't say it until after he said to.
Ikr!
@@tikka300wsm5
No, he said it immediately! He responsed:"That's awesome, thank you for that!"
I agree with song writers need more credit..they are responsible for the lyrics that's almost everything!❤❤❤🎉
Naa. Dont agree. Writers should get credit but no thats not almost everything.
A lot of writers do fee writing, sell their songs for a price and walk away. Many times people listed in credits actually didn't write
I get it but I don't agree. The sound of a song is by far the best thing and most important thing. I know and love songs that I still don't know the words to.
While Jennifer is saying he should have why didn't she turn around either
She should be getting Paid
That goes to show you people write songs and the artists gets them and the writer never get no recognition for it he didn't even know she wrote the song ,but god timing is always on time ❤
But the writer do get the credits...that's y they never really complain
They get a lot of money from the royalties!!
@@EdmundSookermanyyeah but you have to monitor it.... You have to employ an professional monitor and that costs money too
Amen
She said her name and it never even triggered anything. He had no clue.
Tom offered her experience & Gavin offered her " hang out time". I would have picked Tom, he's more serious bout business.
He also offered longevity which i would think she would value over what gavin offered
@@aminabouba9730 Yup. She should have. Her voice is good but not very strong. Tom has a unique voice that works best in certain parameters as well so I think he would have helped her find the right songs (unlike the one she auditioned on!)
Me too.
Maybe she wanted to hang out at the same time 😅
I think Tom had too much experience. When people are very young they are stuck on age. They don't know how to connect to older people. Unless it's their own grandma or something like that
The look on Will’s face regretting he hasn’t turn around I find it so funny 😂
I should have turned around
He should have turned around
He look salty
She's so pretty and I like her so much❤
She’s hitting some bad keys but she’s very pretty 😍
She definitely has an amazing tone, parts sounded off, maybe nerves, but once she finds her stride, she's gonna fly
And it's also noisy.
This audition was 7 years ago 😢 Tanya is super talented still
She was ok not amazing
The world needs more of this kind of songs and singers. Music with heart and good vibes ❤️🎶
She's an artist and she definitely sounded nostalgia 90's with those unique and nostalgic vocals.
GIRL …. DONT EVER GIVE-UP !; YOU ARE SO SO BEAUTIFUL ….( YOUR SOUL!!) everything about you !you rock you have everything they have.!….You’ve got that “thing” (and I’m just a simple person in San Diego.!!)👍❤️😘🙏🌺

No she wasn’t
I think she is adorable!
@@heatherbeth4249 I agree!!! 100 % cutie!!!
@@sharkkeeper01 clearly she was
is
Amazing voice and talent, Tom was a true gentleman.
💯👊🏼💙
She’s the whole package and I just love her voice and hair!
I Agree with you
She is more of a song writer than vocalist. Her singing voice isnt her best strength. Dont c her as a singer.
@@deficrypto1234I agree. Her voice is good and pretty, but not spectacular. She falls flat in some areas.
Tanya seems like she has been through the wringer, as so many talented artists do.

I definitely would have done it after or not at all. I want you to see me only. 😊
Her VOICE IS PHENOMENAL and REMARKABLY FANTASTIC.❤
Song writers should get recognition for they work.
Wow I can relate to this as an artist. Going flat. Things drying up. Redirecting then finding your creative pulse again. To all the artist- you’re unique and special in your gifts. Keep going. The world needs you. ❤❤
I would pick TOM he’s a living legend
And when he said “you’d always work” translation MAKE $$$
I was think that too!
Great singer, and she has a very laid back and humble demeanor. Hope she get the opportunity to achieve her dreams.
I cried like a baby!! Her vocal emoting was just so moving.
That voice, the speaking voice, that's THE VOICE.❤
All these ppl commenting that they didnt care for her, my thoughts, she sounded like this could be her song, her speaking and singing voice have great character and to get a turn from Tom Jones AND a standing ovation from him too, means she has a gift and a talent!
True! 👍
Tom Jones is overhyped and has terrible vocal range.
I thought she sounded pretty good
@@GrampiesCorner you’re just jealous because you will never make it
I loved her rendition!!!
she has a great voice. i guess for me, she could've picked a song that suits her phenomenal voice better. i felt like this song didn't highlight it much. but i love the raspiness of her voice. it's one of those sounds that has character and is easily recognizable when you hear it.
It didn't highlight her full vocal ability due to her being horse

I cant believe she didnt choose Tom. He knows his stuff and gave her a standing ovation.
I don’t even know who this Gavin guy is 🤦♂️ Tom could’ve took her very far
@@cellmoore4848 Gavin, Gavin Rossdale. Musician, singer, songwriter from Bush.
@@cellmoore4848me either who youuuuu
I felt the same
I totally agree. I would have gone with Tom Jones! He's a legend!
When someone writes a song for you and u don’t even meet them till then is crazy !!!!
HIs label and mangers did it for him, silly, but truth hurts.
Once in a while I hear a voice that gives me goosebumps of Cosmic Harmony and I Feel that Voice and that person is going to be a Bright Shining Star for years to come. This lady has what it takes . I hope her mentors give her the wind

No word of a lie, she should definitely check out voiceover work such as audiobooks.

Which season if you remember??
Season 1 Leanne Mitchell
He has a expert ear and knows from experience what sells
Love Ruti ❤
She has a great ability! I would have chosen Tom because he has a lifetime of experience and there won't be a whole lot of opportunity left to mentor with him in this lifetime!
Who’s here in November 2024?
Watching it now friend
me

Not trying to criticize, because it was probably all the nerves….but I did hear a bit of pitch glitch in the first few seconds before she exploded. Once she got into it, phenomenal
I heard it too
It didn't sound so great to me
Me too, she went a little flat
She was actually pretty bad.
@@verles27if that’s bad then what’s your definition of good? Because she was phenomenal when she relaxed
Will "i shoulda turned around" is Hilarious, and accurate. she''stunning and talented.
Will is kicking himself for that one 😂😂😂
Probably not. Her voice is just ok.
Perfect personality with that voice
She has a beautiful voice. I hope she writes herself a smash hit.
Wow shes stunning! Beautiful voice too. Very 90's R&B vibe. ❤
Absolutely love her voice! She so beautiful as well
Proud of you Tanya. Keep doing your thing. Your Amazing❤

She's a beautiful young lady with a unique beautiful voice!
Will I am you messed up bro😂
The problem is that talent and hard work is not enough in the music biz. It’s personality, luck, it’s timing
And if body is sellable😅
I’d say look, or style.. over personality
I’d say it’s also alot of ‘what are you willing to do?’
Exactly, great singers are a dime a dozen in that industry. All the singers are willing to go hard and work hard but timing and luck is everything in everything.
The number one thing in the business is “Who do you know?”
So Powerful - this young man so touch the core of my soul! Thank you so much!!!❤
It's easy to criticize but I couldn't do it so you go miss lady it was incredible!
This is so incredibly wonderful. I enjoyed the video very much. I would have loved to have been able to share this with my dad. Unfortunately, he passed away in 2016. He loved jazz….and I know he would have appreciated your dad’s ability to play with you!

CO-writer. Not even listed. If she helped to change like two words, she'd definitely milk that in front of him.
Kinda like construction workers and engineers.
@@nifty2bthrifty366Exactly 💯.
We Hope and Pray to see more of her Talent 🙏🏻
Song writers should get a share of the royalties. Lawyer up and get a contract to signed.
I am so glad she said it herself that her voice was wobbly and I get that was nerves
I love her voice...so silky ❤❤❤
I don’t understand why Will didn’t turn around because throughout he was pointing to everyone like she was great.
Oh i love love her Song"now that youre gone" for years. Nice o See her in that Show.
Not often will u am is speechless 😊
Will was like thinking about past moments i should have turned around
Beautiful voice
Excellent performance for his first time🎉🎉 these youngsters need to take a page out of his dressing book. 🎉🎉
That's a gift amazing voice and talent💯
Her song writing and her voice is just amazing. Definitely,she is more than enough ❤❤❤
I'm just so glad they gave Linda Clifford credit! What next Big Mama Thornton, Mary Griffin, or Gloria Jones? 🥰
Obvious Talent is not to be denied. Great good fortune for you, Tania.
Beauty with a beautiful voice

Amazing is there no end to this guys talents singing playing all those instruments n good looking also WOW!!! X
She's the kind of person that would be gorgeous bald. Seriously stunning
Amazing voice - with a different vibrato - I love it
It’s so sad song writers can’t make money the singer make a lot of money…it’s so wrong unfair
Im not sure how that all works different for each song writer I guess ..I personally know a song writer wrote a song back in the late 70s that still gets a check every month for royalties..3 to 5000 a month based on air play. He gets a break down of where it's played it's still seems to be a popular song in Europe that's where most of the play is .
Actually that’s not necessarily true. The Kiss” written by Beth Nelson Chapman paid her son’s way through college.
The song writer gets paid every time a song is played…..unless they sell the rights to someone else.
Actually you are incorrect. Song writers are the ones who Always get paid. If the song is ever covered again by another artist, only the song writer gets a check.
The music executives are the main ones cashing in on others work
She is absolutely gorgeous, on top of everything else.
I think it wasn't a good song choice, but her voice is good and with their help especially Tom Jones!!! Like to see the end results 😊
🥰 Tanya is awesome! If given the opportunity, I bet Will is set to steal her for his team.
Absolutely beautiful. So happy for you celine
