What cant this beautiful talented girl sing ! Stunning voice 💛💫🎈
One of the most beautiful songs I have EVER heard - by anyone.
Again, I'm going to say this. Lucy is gifted and beyond.
so is her mother and little sister. Listen to them all 3 sing SMILE, outstanding voices & souls...
Lucy is out of this world, she does this to everybody... BEAUTIFUL. THANK YOU LUCY for sharing your blessing and your soul... amen
I think we can all share our thought's on who we think is the better singer!, but there are ways to respect other people's opinions ,it should not get to the stage where some start to get somewhat abusive to others constructive comments!, if Lucy was to read some of what is being said, she would be mortified!,I'm sure it would be the last thing she wants!,as we respect Lucy for the artist she surely is, let's show respect to all those that follow this lovely young lady!🌈
Lucy Thomas have an Angelic voice, any song's she sing and she own this version of the song. Lucy is the best singer in her own world today.Thank you for the great reaction on this song "Over the Rainbow" by Lucy Thomas performance.
Lucy just keeps getting better and better. Thanks for spreading the word. Lucy is the most impressive messenger of joy in the singing world today
Thank you she is the best voice of today, I can't stop watching her she is so impressive
Hi ya Chris - I don't know how I didn't see this before. Great reaction to an amazing version of this song. I actually heard Eva's version first when I bought one of her CDs before she passed. Lucy's version is a tribute to Eva and, wow, did she crush it. This is another example of Lucy's versatility to different music genres. I can't get enough of this young lady! Have a great holiday season and stay safe & healthy!
Lucy has made many many covers and - with one exception - I think she has easily surpassed them all. That exception in My View is this version by Eva. She knew she had little time left here and poured every ounce of her soul into this performance. And the fact she played her own guitar so beautifully and flawlessly just about clinched it. Thank-you.
Just a breath of fresh air. Beautifully done. I have see Eva Cassidy’s version and I have to say it was full of soul snd talent also.
I agree… an angel that produces perfection! As you said, no one has a more smooth, precise and dialed in voice than Lucy. Your reactions are so good - they really nail it!
Interestingly, this video is exactly 2 years old today and Lucy has just gotten better and better since then. There are over 20 newer recordings to explore. You will enjoy any and all of them and we will enjoy watching you do it. Your Lucy reactions are the best!
Don't forget that she is still very young and her singing should improve for 10 years at least.
Your reaction is exactly how i feel when i listen to Lucy. She is just phenominal. She can sing anything. You should listen to her sing "At Last" by Etta James...just fabulous. Her recent release from the Musical Rosie...Lord we thank you for this day is so emotional...she fronts a choir..she and the choir will choke you up. ❤❤❤❤
Lucy has a huge musical knowledge. She made me discover artists i never earded about, Like Eva.
She always choose the right song to cover, and it is not the simplest one.
Sometime, when i look at her videos , i feel she has some beautiful message to transmit:
Wind beneath my wings
Footprints in the sand
Over the rainbow
Run
The prayer
Some one you loved
Fix you
When you believe
Hallelujah
You raise me up
In the arms of an angel
Say something
Hero
She use to be mine
Thank you for this day
All songs have a meaning, and Lucy choose them carefully
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🥰🥰🥰
Hi Anthony I agree with you there. I had never heard of Eva Cassidy since hearing Lucy sing this. I have now listened to her version . As for Wind beneath my Wings by Lucy it is one of my favourites from Lucy. The ending is so beautiful .Lucy never ceases to amaze everything she sings she makes her own and she draws you into the song with her .She is so rare.
absolutely amazing what a voice. thanks for your observations Larry
I love to watch the faces of those that are listening and commenting on her.
Eva Cassidy, number one always. Beautiful job though Lucy. Thanks for your tribute to Eva.
I personally prefer Lucy's voice over anybodies
I recommended this version of Lucy singing Eva Cassidy version. Lucy just rocks it. Perfection.
Yes, she sure did! Beautiful!
I really didn't care for the change from the original when I first heard this version, but it has really grown on me, especially with Lucy singing it. She could sing the phone book and it would be just beautiful.
She has a lovely voice.
Hmm, hmm I just found myself agreeing with you. Whoever first covered Judy Garland my thought was, oh no no no. Judy owns it. But as it goes and Lucy Thomas comes along, why not? An analogy: Keep a beautiful song alive and with nuances that blossom to another beautiful flower. Very grateful to have experienced this, thanks to those who requested it and to you Chris.
Yes, true. Maybe it’s the advent of RUclips bringing them to light but I don’t recall this many covers ever.
Unbelievable voice
Truly
Missed you. Hope the weekend was good. Love the reaction.......as always 🤗 patti
Hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Great I like you reaction to Lucy and I am so glad that you have found her ,the World needs to hear Lucy she is very special .This video is 2 years old her voice is even better now Try listening to her latest release "The greatest love of all" Lucy has taken on most of the Divas eg Whitney Houston, Barbara Streisand, Bette Midler ,Celine Dion ,Lady GaGa. and made the songs her own. I have heard songs from Lucy from the age of 9 .Her copy of "listen" age 14 is amazing the power she exhibits is amazing. One of my favourites is Lucy singing Bette Midler's "The wind beneath my wings" the ending is magical. Lucy is working on a musical due for release next year and she has released some of her original songs in advance eg."Broken dreams" and Starlight. I hope that you continue to listen and react to Lucy.🤩🤩🤩
Could not add anything more of that you wrote 👍👍👍👍👍👍
@@wilburfinnigan2142 i know , but there is must be a start to Lucy voice discovery.
No need to give to much choices at the beginning.
Later on , we can add what ever we like about Lucy
As always... thanks for another amazing review of Lucy Thomas...
Lucy Thomas's amazing vocals along with Acoustic Guitar by James Frankland have taken this beautiful song by Eva Cassidy to a whole new level. I grew up with the Wizard of Oz (years ago). Once a year, we would pile in front of the TV and watch. We probably knew every scene and every line by heart. Of course we would sing along 'Over The Rainbow' by Judy Garland. I got interested in performing at an early age, this show sparked my desire. Went on to sing and act for over a decade.
Eva Cassidy took a classic and improved it. Different times means different styles. It was sad Eva passed away at such a young age. She left her legacy for others to enjoy though. Now Lucy comes along, she loves both versions of song. So what do you do?
That is the benefit of having signed with one of the biggest Record Labels in the UK. On top of that, there are producers and composers Lucy can call on. They took Eva's song and improved it in my opinion. Need an Acoustic Guitar... no problem. Need a full Orchestra.. also no problem. Professional Resources many other singers lack.
One thing I noticed right away, this is the first and only time you will see Lucy sitting during a performance. She has so much inner energy and was born to perform live. She is in her element standing on stage, using physical motions that adds depth and emotion. Lucy wanted to get up and perform.
Lucy gives us a prelude at 2:10 into the video of what is coming later.... she repeats it again at 3:20 .... then at 3:30 she starts climbing the scale and then going forte by 3:40... another spectacular performance that leaves no doubt in listeners' minds just how talented Lucy truly is. She can not contain it, it shows in every note, word, and gesture.
I can literally write pages about the Lucy Thomas 'Effect' on listeners. They become so emotionally invested in the song, it is as though she is singing a solo in their living room just for them. I ran out of superlatives, even Webster falls short. But will do my best to write in such a way the average fan can not only understand, but fully relate.
Lucy is a Serious Professional. She delivers powerful performances, with perfect pitch, perfect enunciation, perfect note placement, perfect breathing, resulting in perfect vocals delivered with so much purpose. Lucy easily stands out from the rest.
Lucy Thomas doesn't copy music... she improves it.
@@wilburfinnigan2142 I can still remember when Lucy performed "Over The Rainbow" with James Frankland on Acoustic Guitar. First time ever seeing her sit down for a performance. She is so used to being front and center. Lucy kept fidgeting... hard to sit still when you are a real performer....
@@wilburfinnigan2142 As always, Lucy hits this one out of the ballpark...
i have commentated on this already but feel i must say i almost cry when i am listening along with you
Lucy's version has grown on me from the first time of listening to it!, I suppose I've always enjoyed Judy Garlands version because of all the history that comes with it!,on listening to Lucy's version on several occasions I have grown to appreciate it more!,on saying that, I would like to add that for me, Lucy is the best thing since 'sliced bread",never been that interested in some of the type of music she records,but because of her voice& her presence within all she records, I am smitten!🥰
This is actually Eva Cassidy’s version and arrangement that Lucy is singing.
@@wilburfinnigan2142 I was replying to John Collins, who called it Lucy’s version. So calm down. 🙄
Lucy doesn’t make the songs her own-she COPIES the original artist EXACTLY. She has a beautiful voice, BUT she doesn’t have them same feelings of the originals and doesn’t really “make them her own”.
And I only today watched the Dennis Quad film ‘On a Wing and a Prayer’ just to hear her rendition of Hallelujah being played near the end of the film.
Hi Larry...I just really appreciate how you appreciate Lucy. You express so well what I feel whenever I listen to her sing. Lucy is definitely an incredibly talented vocalist the likes of which I personally have not heard, probably ever. She is truly gifted but more than that, Lucy has a certain compelling charisma that is hard to quantify. And yes, I get shivers whenever she performs her magic. What an extraordinarily special dedicated young lady. Lucy is definitely top of the class and comparing her to anyone else is futile because she is beautifully unique and pure of heart with a voice made in heaven.
Thanks so much!
Larry, This is indeed beautiful. Some things I noticed: First, you reacted with a look of satisfaction right at the first note; I took a quick look at Judy Garland's version and the tempo here and on Eva's rendition is different from Judy's (not bad, just different); then the last 3 words Lucy holds the 'I' with a long note, then vibrato, then back out to the note again and it's all right on pitch. Excellent execution.
Just when I close my eyes and listen to this magical voice, you just MUST hear yourself speak. So very sad indeed, goodbye...
Well, it’s a reaction channel for starters. I always link the video for you to see it uninterrupted. Let’s try something fun! I recommend that you do a few reactions, but don’t pause them. THEN, let’s get a stopwatch and see how long RUclips either blocks your video or worse, takes your channel down for copyright infringement. Sound fun? Take it from someone that has actually been threatened with the removal of the channel. Those that don’t understand are the first to just say “bye”. Let me be the second. Bye.
Exactly, yours is a reaction to Lucy, listen to her album if you want the uninterrupted version, keep up with the great and genuine reactions.
It saddens me that people get so tribal and argumentative over opinions! I also saw this on another reactor's channel. We all have our preferences. I was totally unaware of Eva Cassidy until I saw Lucy's cover of this song. I like larryshair's reaction to Lucy Thomas covers so I checked it out to see what he thought of this one. I read the comment's and see this argument about who did it best. So I found Eva Cassidy's version and watched it. When you learn that she was dying and probably knew it at the time and then listen to her sing the song it brings out a strong emotion reaction. Then you are told that Lucy is doing the cover as a tribute to Eva who she admires. To argue over who performed the song the best is an insult to Lucy and the memory of Eva. I am an unapologetic Lucy Thomas fan and think no one is better, but considering the circumstances, you have to acknowledge that Eva Cassidy's version is very, very special!
Couldn't agree more!,I am a massive fan of Lucy!,she's the only young artist I go to!,but why compare her to Judy Garland& Eva Cassidy, superstars in their own right!,this was a tribute from Lucy after all!.
@@wilburfinnigan2142 I wish you would stop doing this! Many of us are just as big fans of Lucy as you are. I love that you are so loyal to Lucy, but there is no need to antagonize other people over your partisanship. Lucy does't need you to defend her and no one said that Lucy needed to apologize for her tribute to Eva!
@@kennethsorrels8850 Amen
@@randysimon7363 Amen and thank you.
@@wilburfinnigan2142 No, I wish you would stop bashing other performers and their fans. I believe that Lucy Thomas is the best female singer that I have ever heard, but I don't call other fans stupid or their opinions stupid when they disagree with me. That does not help Lucy or her fans. And it is not cold hard facts! It is your opinion, an opinion that I happen to share by the way, but it is still just our opinion. Until you can come up with a system of metrics that analyses a person's performance with concise objective parameters that can be quantified and used to compare two different performances, it will remain our opinion. We can be proud of Lucy without disrespecting other people!
Hi Chris! Loved the song and as always your reaction to it. Hope you have a great week!
Thanks Rich! All is good on this end! Hope all is great on yours!
Lucy is not just a beautiful voice, she is a master of emotion that takes the song so much higher. Great reaction.
So funny, when I hear Eva's version I often get a tear or two, but for Lucy ............no tear.
Over the Rainbow for Eva was really Heaven and the peace it offered. She conveys all her sadness and Hope in her version.
The tears come for me. They just did! Maybe I am a softie.
Funny, other way round for me. Eva has a beautiful smooth and feminine lower register, but her high notes are a bit screechy and sometimes off key. Still love her work, but there are some songs she sings that are harsh and not particularly pleasant to listen to.....
Lucy often reduces me to tears like no other!,absolutely love her!💖
Nobody can touch Eva's version, sorry.
Great reaction once again
Lucy is an angel sent. Her voice is amazing. I love listening to her. Did you play hallelujah to your wife and what dud she think?
Larry just 7 hours ago on May 11 Lucy put out a new song. Better than any thing she has done. It's called A Brand New Day it will blow you away. It is amazing.
Done! It should drop on the 16th. Thanks!

My condolences on the loss of your rabbit. I know this is late, but I just now got caught up with Phenomenal, and so here we are. I'm obviously unaware of when you recorded Phenomenal, but it was uploaded 12 days ago, on the 4th... the same day I had to put my own cat down. So yeah. My heart goes out to you and your family. I hope you are able to grieve sufficiently, while not being overwhelmed or letting it consume you. Take care, my friend.
Thanks so much!
Ehh... I wanted to write something about my English being too bad to even describe her vocals but... to be honest, I'm just speechless... in any language. All I can say is I loved the reaction again.
Have a nice day my friend! (or evening or whenever you read this 🙂)
Thanks! My goodness, your English is perfect!
@@larryshair Thanks! but we both know it's not, lol 😅 it's not that bad for someone who learned English through video games and rap though.
You forgot one more WOW!!!
Lucy has a new song out today. Not a cover but a theme song for an upcoming TV series. Prepare to be blown away.
Done! It should drop on the 16th. Thanks!
@@larryshair I trust you were not disappointed!
Chris, I love Eva's interpretation, also her performance of Sting's "Fields of Gold", Lucy does this justice.
Always wondered about the lyrics 'though. Why the obsession with finding the weight of food stuff and why specifically over a rainbow? Perhaps it does matter to the weight of a Pie.
@@wilburfinnigan2142 "some where over a rainbow, weigh a pie"
@@wilburfinnigan2142 It is a very old joke you have obviously not heard before. Almost as old as the song.
Similar style to Eva Cassidy....obviously inspired and influenced.by her..crystal clear...beautiful voice...superb.....interesting how many young performers are going back to the earlier great catalog of songs we oldies enjoyed. I cant help feeling that Angelina Jordan opened the door for many of these performers...they all seem to have caught the A J train in 2023....how wonderful for all of us...we are getting back to real bonafide music. Love the fact that the new generations are discovering these timeless melodies.....GROOVY? imperfectly perfect...love it.
Eva is gone but, now we have Lucy. Thank heavens! Good reaction! Speaking of Billie Jean, the short lived duo The Civil Wars did a great acoustic cover of it.
Great review.
Thanks!
Lucy is great, but Eva is absolutely unrepeatable. A beautiful voice is not enough to enter your soul as Eva Cassidy knew how to do. That said, this girl is very, very talented.
That is a fact.
Sorry but I have to say Lucy's voice enters my soul like nobody else's I've heard.
as much as I love Lucy's music, (and I think she is by far THE best singer out there at the moment, and should be global by now !!!) I don't think anyone can top Eva Cassidy's live version......
Yes, but keep in mind that she was ill that night when she sang it and passed 6 months later...
Eva no sabia que padecía cáncer.
El diagnostico se lo dieron tres meses antes de su fallecimiento y fue fulminante.
Le extirparon un lunar en la espalda que con el paso del tiempo, uno o dos años, se convirtió en cáncer.
Su genialidad para "re escribir" las canciones fue demostrada a través de todo el tiempo en que nos maravilló con su propuesta musical.
Para gustos y opiniones colores, pero lo que es innegable , es que escuchar a Eva nos remece hasta los huesos y con esta cantante eso no ocurre.
I like how Lucy is making every cover she does 'her own' and do that with total respect with the orginal version. You are asking for other smooth voices that are even better. Well I guess there are not (who am I to say that, because maybe there are: who knows what talents there are we have never heard of), but: Angelina Jordan, 17 years of age (jazz/blues/soul) and Amira Willighagen, 19 years of age (classical/cross-over/religious) are certainly equally talented singers as Lucy is, each in their own specific genre. What also is a funny detail: all three are finishing highschool this year and I can't wait to see what will happen after that. Amira Willighagen has finished school already last December (she lives in South Africa) and she has decides to have a break in study this entire year so she can focus on releasing music and performing. Till now Lucy, Angelina and Amira have been very protected from the media and talent-hunters and stayed most of the time 'out of radar', which to me is a very healthy and wise decision of the people around them.
Reverb is OP (but still, wow)
🥰
Hi Larry further to my note below I have just listened to Lucy signing this same song age 14 .I just thought that you may like to listen to it so you can compare the two. Keep up the great reactions to Lucy Its on Media city UK unplugged Dec 2018
Unlike Lucy. Eva's voice was untrained and yet her understated and unaffected delivery was matchless ...her uncontrived ability to move you to tears... because a certain song moved her to want to cover it. It might be why other artist want to cover her cover of a certain song ..like this one. To top this off she was not just a singer but a great musician and musical arranger ..thus this cover of Eva's cover. Lucy has a beautiful voice...but its trained and maby at some point she might be able to accompany her own voice like Eva with guitar playing of her own ..then we can truly be fair if we compare ...just think.... Eva's voice was untrained plus she accompanied herself with some very intricate guitar playing ...that's quite an accomplishment for some one that was not a professional. Yet ... to this day even though she was virtually unknown .. ..people know her now..she moves people to tears with her guileless musical artistry ..transporting you to somewhere you long to be. That is raw natural talent... from the depths of ones soul.
Hi Larry I need to give you a heads up Lucy has just released a new original song "Brand new day" It is without doubt I believe her greatest yet it is phenomenal I just keep playing it over and over again.Please re act to it . This one will definitely convince you that Lucy will conquer the World.
Done! It should drop on the 16th. Thanks!
@@larryshair Thanks Larry a health warning here "Whatever you do don´t look into her eyes " they are hypnotic
Julie Andrews style voice. Prove me wrong.
Love ur reactions, in fact one of my favorites. Not sure if you will read this but a phenomenal song I would love you to listen to is “Danger Line” by Avenged Sevenfold. Not sure if there are any other A7X fans here but regardless it is such a powerful song that tells the story of a soldier who goes to war.
Thanks so much!
Lucy Thomas new cover (Brand New Day)
Done! It will hit on the 16th! Thanks!
First off.. this is an “Eva Cassidy” cover for a reason. Lucy has a beautiful voice.. but sorry.. She’s no Eva Cassidy. We all have our different tastes.. but I don’t feel the emotion I felt the first time I heard Eva’s rendition. Even before I read about her passing.. Eva has more emotion in the song than any other version than anyone else.. more so than Judy Garland.
Yes she dose sing it beautifully but I don’t think she she has the same amount of feeling that Eva had ,,she was so much softer in the way that she sang it and that’s how I think it should be sung, but that’s just me.
You should make your own version of the song and not to copy another singer version. Now these reactors will say you are better than another singer version. That is unfair to the likes of Eva Cassidy. She's genius coming out with a brilliant version of the song like Somewhere over the rainbow & Fields of Gold. Try to come up with your own version and let us see what makes you a prodigy they're saying, peace!
No contest. Eva more heartfelt/emotional….and better interpretation. Lucy has a great voice though
You have got to check out Broken Window serenade by whisky Meyers
Hi Cutie
Here is a (crazy?) thoughts... I was gonna write she has The voice and The face of an angel. But then I started to think how do we know Angels are pretty? What if when we die and go to heaven and meet The Angels all of them are ugly.
Im not that pretty so maybe its me who has a face of an angel? 😅
Take care my friend
You look very pretty to me!😉😄
You my dear friend are a lovely Angel!
Wait... If angels aren't pretty then I'm really sorry, but you can't be one of them 🤔😀 You're beautiful! and don't ever let anyone tell you that you're not. 🤗
@@wilburfinnigan2142 Jesus. He’s taken my place.
Chris, have you heard Melody Gardot ? If yes that great if not, find her.
Will do! I haven't heard of her.
Please do Dax- to be a man 🙏
Very beautiful but just not as good as Eva.
El homenaje es cantar la canción como lo hizo Eva?
Mmmmmm... A su interpretación en el amplio sentido de la expresión, le faltó alma.
No sé qué tiene que ver el cáncer o su fallecimiento para ser o no destacable.
Una buena voz no siempre está acompañada de los otros ingredientes que son parte de un artista.
Hay algunas voces que son un buen instrumento musical , pero no todos pueden expresar sentimientos profundos o conmoverte hasta las lágrimas y esa es la mayor diferencia que yo advierto entre Eva y esta niña.
You should give Lana del Rey a try maybe 🤔 happiness is a butterfly or

Sorry Eva Cassidy’s version is so much better than this one
@@wilburfinnigan2142Larry never indicated that at all .untrue.
Yeah lucy can sang but so could eva, and it was her arrangement and eva played her own guitar. Sorry lucy your copycating.. your also louder thats not what eva was about, just copycat judy garlands version.
