I see a lot of reaction videos but most people are not really touched by the music emotionally. They’re liking Courtney’s music but are really experiencing it on a superficial level; voice control, lyrics, range, etc. You are connecting emotionally as evidenced by everything in your reaction. Goosebumps in the first 30 seconds, the sighs, etc. You feel it, as I do. It’s great to see someone else floored by her emotionally. She has a magnificent voice, incredible range and control and is technically a very talented singer but it’s her ability to imbue the songs with powerful emotion that really makes her a superstar. I feel sorry for people that can’t connect emotionally to Courtney, they’re missing out on so much.
Thank you so much for your comment! I really appreciate it! And I’m so happy to meet other people who have an emotional connection to music. Welcome! :)
I agree with you totally, Stewart. A reaction video should add something to the original. I find that I appreciate Courtney's singing even more when I am hearing and seeing someone else's emotional connection to it.
This young girl just brings me to tears every time I hear her sing these slow, sad songs. This is her majesty. Such an old soul. I could listen to her forever. God bless this beautiful child!
Ann Carroll I love when she covers songs like Sign of the Times, the more ballad-y stuff where her incredible voice and emotionality are on display, unencumbered by a lot of theatrics. I find it almost impossible not to cry when watching this video.
Hi there from here on the Mid North Coast of Australia, I am a 78 year old man who has become totally overwhelmed with the sheer brilliance of Courtney's amazing talent, she is the very best in the world today.
I have listened to this dozens of times and never get tired of Courtney’s simply amazing voice that gives me goosebumps every time. She is totally unique, one of a very special kind with no equal.
Courtney is a complete performer. Her stage presence does not feel like a defense mechanism. Her versatility shines comparing this to Papa's Got A Brand New Bag. She can come at you from all directions. I'm mesmerized watching her on stage. Her voice for me is unmatched in her age group and beyond. And yes, a 10 without question. 👍💯
This is really Courtney's wheelhouse. At age 11 she was slaying ballads by Steven Tyler, Etta James, Jessie J., Elvis, Michael Jackson, and others. Today she said she wanted to show her "softer side" and released this as her first of 4 on the EP "The Cover Sessions."It was followed by "Sucker" "Someone You Loved" and Old Town Road." Courtney will be a smash with her rocker/R&B persona, but she will always shine with this type of music. I hope she does not forget her roots. Nice reaction!
D.R.K. a fan put this playlist together. Half down you'll see a bunch of younger Courtney doing ballads she started out with. ruclips.net/p/PLqPTZRWyOEB0bC_K0rerlwoa0kCGiJYLh
She was bullied for her singing. Told she sounded like a boy. Hah! There's a message there for young singers. Thanks for your passion, personal raw & vulnerable.
Absolutely love your reactions to Courtney. You bring as much emotion to the performance as she does. Two things always stand out about Courtney beyond her obvious vocal and performing skills: 1. Her tremendous vocal range and versatility. She can do Rock, R&B, Funk, Soul and Ballads without any drop off in quality. I can't think of any artist, old or new, that can pull that off as well as she does. The book's still out on opera. 2. You're never going to hear anything that sounds like the original when she does a cover. Why do a cover if you don't have a different take on the song and Courtney never lets you down. It's always all Courtney, sometimes to the extent that the relation to the original is almost unrecognizable. If you think what she did to this pop song was amazing, wait until you hear what she's done to the Jonas Bros. 'Sucker', the last of her recent covers on her Vevo channel. It will blow your mind. I get where you're coming from on her AGT classic rock performances. I personally love them, but there are others who share your view and prefer this style of Courtney. But frankly speaking, how many 13/14 year-olds have we seen rocking out to James Brown, Tina Turner and Janis Joplin. Personally, I can't decide. I think all versions of Courtney are the best. Courtney Hadwin 'Sucker:' ruclips.net/video/iF53gkY0JiM/видео.html
many times ( if not all the times ) Courtney's cover is better than the original. personal preference is part of it, more often its sure quality, sometimes by far and away ....
That’s another 10/10 for Courtney,what an amazing voice she has,and she’s only 15! what a natural talent,really amazing,love every song she covers more than the originals.❤️
She is living the songs and we are allowed to be a part of it. She's unbelievable talented and one of the best entertainer I've ever seen. Love it! Greats from good old Germany! Sorry... can't say only one amazing thing you have to see in Germany. We have so many beautiful places. Do you love the beauty of nature? Or do you like to see historical places? Modern architecture? We have all of them. You should like the midage towns "Rothenburg ob der Tauber", "Bamberg" or the palace Sanssouci in Potsdam. The beauty of the "Mecklenburgische Seenplatte". Oh God... there are so many things to see.
I thought I might be the first to comment on this, Maunalee, but people have already beat me a few seconds ago. Anyway, thank you for finally doing Courtney who is my favorite of all the new voices. Her emoting during her singing is one of her outstanding talents. She does run the gamut of many styles that she interprets in her rock/soul/blues manner, including "jumping around on stage" like her idols James Brown and Elvis. And she can do the slow ballad thing. Different people like one or the other; I like them both and in between!
Your reactions are uplifting. You pay attention too. I've been watching a bunch of other reactions today for Angelina's AGT performance, and some tend to talk over and even sing over the performance too much. Drives me nuts. Courtney and Angelina are the kind of performers you want the reactor to feel what you feel and already know when those moments come. There's parts of every performance that as a viewer you are hoping the reactor is paying attention to. When it happens, so do the goosebumps. So thanks for your reactions the way you do. I'm not sure but my guess is when Courtney found old school music while watching old classics on RUclips, she may have wanted everyone to feel the same as she did when she saw them for the first time. So maybe she was trying to make sure everyone watching got her message by really giving it her all on stage in the beginning. And as time went on she, as we all do, learned to be more at ease. There's a saying "Less is More". And it definitely works sometimes. But sometimes you just need to let it all hang out. I kinda prefer the later with Courtney moreso, myself. Here stage performance really makes me feel like a kid. I also love these performances too. I guess I'm more of a dedicated rocker and blues person though. Courtney has many more covers like this as a younger Courtney I'm guessing you'll enjoy too. Not as well produced as her Vevo channel stuff, but still very good. Here's one of Aerosmith's cover of "Don't want to miss a thing" ruclips.net/video/jjmwOEnFIns/видео.html Please keep on doing Courtney. We get withdrawals when things are quiet on her, at least I do. lol
Drive's me nuts too. It's downright disrespectful to the artist they are reacting to, with the whoops, and hollers, and singalongs, and other meaningless blather, while the artist is singing. They're excuse is, "Hey I'm just reacting. That's what I do." And I say, "baloney, your reaction is fake!" I despise those channels. I don't always agree with Maunalee, but her reactions are genuine, and most of all, respectful to the artist.
@@rotorhead-fy7nc Agreed. I felt bad today when I told a new reactor a few things I thought would help out with reaction because he talked loudly all the way through and his volumes were so uneven with the video to his mic. But I had to delete it. I thought I'd just move on and let someone else tell him. I tend to get worked up when someone's reaction is overdone or the volume settings are wrong. I move on often now. And thanks for the Pinned comment Maunalee.
@@bertpainter8385 Me too. Early on I might have commented , but was usually told it was "my channel" so I just move on like you. It doesn't take but a few seconds to know what it's going to be like. Volumes are another thing that rives me nuts. Hear the reactor way, way too loud and can barely hear the artist. Rubbish!
Thank you for your response she is totally awesome and I enjoy your total honesty about thing's. Ok you asked about other countries- I'm from south Africa- the wonderful blessing we have of no matter where you go in south Africa the way of life and culture is awesome and a wonderful way to for your children to enjoy nature and cultures of every type and there's no end to new experiences everytime you step out of your home. The sea the mountains the deserts the forest's the wilderness the wild animals the people the "everything". South Africa is great but I also wish to experience other counties!!. Please keep courtney courtney hadwin growing she will be the ultimate one in music
I've been waiting for you to do this song. It still gives me goosebumps and tears in my eyes. A little background to why she sings this particular song. You may have heard it. Courtney has chosen this song for people to hear a softer side of her voice. After so many people thought she was just yelling and screaming on stage. But she already showed at a young age that she could sing ballads with much emotion. Sends you a link ruclips.net/video/ReKMhRLCtEQ/видео.html here 10years old I am from Sweden but I am Danish. But, on the whole, have lived in Sweden all my life. I am from the southern part. Sweden has a lot to offer so it's hard to say anything specific. But if you come to Scandinavia don't miss Copenhagen I like that city better than Stockholm Then I mean the city, not its surroundings around the city. The archipelago in Stockholm and Gothenburg is beautiful. I'm sending another link by Jonna Jinton. ruclips.net/video/RNjrUz1sgxQ/видео.html She is from Norrland it is the northern part of Sweden and shows what it looks like there. Her films, music and song. It is breathtaking. I hope you will enjoy. Best regards // Kim
From Québec, Canada. French speaking. One great thing to do? Rent a small by a lake or a river. And you bring one thing: a Bluetooth speaker for phone. You listen to your Favourite soft music. Great nature, mountains and lakes. Love your reaction videos about Courtney. Excellent voice, excellent comments. You are fun to watch. Perfect!
I liked her the first time I saw her on America's got talent, I knew something special was going to happen before she even opened her mouth. I agree with Maunalee, I prefer this style rather than her wild stage antics (although I don't mind that either!) This is outstanding, I was almost in tears during the opening part. Such feeling and emotion, she knows how to deliver and she is mature beyond her age. The greatest talent in the making since Janis. I would be proud to play in her backing band...
What is remarkable about the quality of this, is that it was one of four videos recorded on the same day when she was still only 14. She was busy writing and recording for her album and also of course had her school work to do. This was just fitted in to give her fans something new during this necessary hiatus. Her first album will drop this year and there will be at least one video. She has also said she will be performing on several stages. She also plays keyboard and, now, guitar. Two recent Instagram posts are of her at home singing and strumming a guitar (Both have been picked up by RUclipsrs)
As requested, Hello from England. Courtney was asked to sing at Woodstock but unfortunately that got cancelled. This girl is a real rock star. I know because I lived through the 50's & 60's. Shame her career is on hold because of Covid. She was born about 20 miles from my old home town in North East England. Speaking of which if you ever do come to England, come and see Durham Cathedral which is in the region of one thousand years old.
I prefer this to the original and I like the minimalist musical backing and the way it then builds, nice dynamics, admirably goes with her voice and singing style , she does have a terrific voice, it benefits from not being over produced. I agree with the "jumping around on stage" perspective. (Keith - England - Avebury Stone circle)
Before I forget, Maunalee, you had asked about Courtney's age. You are correct - She's still ONLY 15!!! Oh, and this is the 3rd song you've reviewed for Courtz, and the 3rd 10 you've awarded her. I like it!!!
Hi from the UK, Yorkshire , known as "gods own country", the city of York was the ancient capital of England . Getting back to the subject at hand, Cortney hasn't changed this much from the Harry styles version, but what it does do is show off her vocal range. I love that falsetto and I must add that the guitarist absolutely slays it, almost as good as courtney's singing. Keep up the great reactions.
Great reaction, Maunalee! Love your passion and emotion for the songs you cover. AND just enough commentary, but not too much, to keep us engaged. Although I've lived in the USA for decades, I was born in Lima, Peru and lived there till I was 10. My mom's side of the family lives in the Lima area, so I return with my family every 2-3 years. Touristy must-see would be one of the 7 wonders of the world: The Inca ruins, Machu Picchu. Less touristy: The Peruvian, Amazon jungle (we spent 4 days in the middle of the jungle last year!) and Lima is actually a big foodie destination with 3 of the top 50 restaurants in the world and wonderful foods overlooking the Pacific Ocean coast! Back to Courtney . . . You've covered 3 of her latest 4 covers. Would you mind covering her last, recent cover and to finish with that 4. It's not a ballad, like you prefer from her, it's a very funky song. She took a pop'ish song by the Jonas Brothers, "Sucker" and added lots of funk and a little blues to come up with this lively version - ruclips.net/video/iF53gkY0JiM/видео.html Like you, my favorite 2 of 4 Courtney covers are both ballads, "Sign of the Times" and "Someone You Loved". And, like you, I LOVE her 70's look that she pulls off wonderfully!
Hi from Norway! I'm a new subscriber after watching your Dimash reaction. I really liked that and will watch your other reactions too. If you ever visit Norway, go north. In the winter you'll have the northern lights and in the summer, the midninght sun. I live in the southwest, but I'll never forget my visit up north many years ago, visiting my mothers birthplace. Looking forward to more reactions from you!
Her voice comes from her heart and soul, then it goes straight to your heart and soul, she just pulls you into the song, she is awesome ! I love her, the best talent I've heard in 62 years ? God bless her !
Visceral is the word you want; that is at the heart of Courtney's style. This is astounding in its contrast, yet Courtney remains true to her R&B rooted soul; it is a genuine demonstration of her growth as an artist. Love from America where rock and roll was born.KDM
Lots of folks only know Courtney from AGT, and assume that's her "style." Well currently it is, but Courtney with these covers, as she stated, is trying to let you see her "softer" and more "modern" style, that really has been her foundation since age 9. If you don't know Courtney from Before AGT, here a little primer into the amazing talent that Courtney has always had. Here are 4 covers from her at age 11, that showcase her talent IMO. If you haven't seen them, please watch. “All I Could Do Was Cry” Etta James cover ruclips.net/video/YGbEAuy0y4o/видео.html “Who You Are" Jessie J. cover ruclips.net/video/hpeNkRAM4hg/видео.html “I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" Aerosmith cover ruclips.net/video/jjmwOEnFIns/видео.html “Who’s Loving You” Michael Jackson/Jackson 5 cover ruclips.net/video/rjpD_UQ2bXI/видео.html
Great choices and so many more. And after those there's the local hangouts she did, which are so cool to watch the look on her face when she gets all the applause from people who are really paying attention to a little 9 or 10 year old. Most likely all friends of friends and family coming out to support their favorite little singer around the block. lol Priceless is the smile on her faces when she hears the applause and screams of joy.
@@bertpainter8385 Agreed! I think the best videos of Courtney that shine a light onto what was to come, were her home practice of "I Dreamed A Dream" (even though that was not her role in the play) to see the emotion she could put into a performance at that young age, and her video where she sang "The Climb" wrapped in a blanket in her room, then 2 years later at the Mall, and finally at Julie's that showed her progression from 9 to 14. ruclips.net/video/RGJCkABegN8/видео.html instagram.com/p/BylPD7gl97P/?igshid=132sga4wry6bl
@@rotorhead-fy7nc Courtney's I dreamed a dream tells a story of many things about Courtney and family if people really pay attention to her surroundings in this video and put themselves in the place of the person taking the video. The fact that her brother and (sister I guess) sat there and listened while she did this says things (not sure many siblings would hang around while there sister practices). The support system seems very rooted, even then. As you said the emotion she shows at that age and the way she really opens her mouth to project her vocals, shows real determination. Things you just don't see from the average person especially at that age. Then that little peak at the video person (not sure why that was,but I can only guess). In other words she's not just the run of the mill kid trying to practice. She's putting everything into it. I like to over analyze things when I'm into it. lol. Which reminds me to ask this, does anyone know who Courtney's video person is over the years. Her dad, mom or other?
I liked your reaction, beautifully sung, real talent, I love her conviction. & Hi from New Zealand you must see our beautiful scenery & friendly people!!
Hi from Scotland 🏴 , you would love everything in Scotland from the architecture, hills and glens but especially the people , thanks for upload x
I completely agree with you about this setting versus her high energy, all over the stage performances. This is pure voice, pure emotion, no distractions, nowhere to hide, so deep and profound it would give a lamppost goosebumps. And this is from an ultra-shy 15 year old girl from northern England with a serious accent. I absolutely love her voice, her delivery, every cover she touches turns to gold, she makes me cry routinely. She is a music goddess. I love your reaction videos and I just subbed (from Brooklyn, NY). Consider reacting to Darkness Keeps Chasing Me by Grace VanderWaal. You won’t be disappointed.
I found the words to describe courtney- when I listen to her I actually hold my breath waiting to hear what shes going to do next with the song with her voice etc. If I could sing and had a wish I would want to be her. You never know where shes going to take you next with her take on a song. She makes you "live" her words.
Hi Maunalee. This IS Ric from Costa Rica, Central América. The beaches and rain forests. You, ur family and all your subscribers are welcome to visit us. Great job!
I feel you girl... Now we are all excited for Courtney s voice to fully matured ...so that we all heard what Courtney sound like ...althoug I KNOW it ganna be GODLIKE..
Hi from Germany. Love you reactions and comments. And one thing you might want to see if you ever get to Germany is .... my home town? It is small and cute and over 2000 years old. And yes those are three zeros, like in two thousand.
Hi from the UK. I'm from Cheshire in Northern England, about 100 miles from where Courtney lives and only a few miles from me is the place Lewis Carroll lived and where he wrote Alice in wonderland 😊 As for your video I can honestly say that the background is irrelevant for your videos. It's your voice that I love. You sound like you'd be a great radio talkshow host. Like midnight caller.
@@bertpainter8385 thanks for the info. It makes sense. Her voice is wonderful. Especially to my English ears. It's just so smooth and relaxing. She should do meditation tapes, I'd be so much more relaxed 😊
Oh my gosh! What an amazing compliment! And I bet money I’d adore your accent lol! I was in radio for a long time actually. So like the previous comment, good guess! 😝
@@musicwithmaunalee my accent is not exactly Downton Abbey English I'm afraid , so not sure you'd love it that much lol. But thanks 😁. Your my new favourite reviewer channel now so thank you for replying and I look forward to seeing and hearing your journey into the music of the world. If I may make a request, I'd love to hear what you think of Alejandro Aranda. His audition on American Idol last year was just amazing and if you haven't heard it already you might like it, especially the guitar playing.
Helllo from Germany ! If you ever should come to visit my country be sure to come during June, July or Sptember and watch the castle illumination in Heidelberg. It´s a marvolous firework and realy worth seeing.
She turned 18 yesterday... lemme just say she's drop dead gorgeous to go along with a Killer voice and stage presence!!! If she dont blow up the music world... I'll be shocked! I mean she's up against Rap! It's Not even music compared to her abilities!!!
Great reaction Maunalee. Glad you're still a Courtney fan. One thing to remember about Courtney is she does it her way so don't look at like it's a Harry Styles song or anybody else's when she does a cover. I'm not real fond of the dude who sang old town road or the song itself but I like Courtney's cover of it.
Apologies another comment about courtney I truly hope she never loses her inner truth about herself as that's what makes her untouchable by any other singer. I will always try to keep up with her progress because she touches my soul and spirit and heart and gives each song true meaning to each one that you can relate to
She can really belt them out! Been following her since she auditioned on AGT and Howie gave her the golden buzzer! She has also started playing guitar and writes her own music as well!
Hi Maunalee. Good reaction. I love Courtney's voice and her way to put herself into all the songs she covers. Covers are all she do till now - ok except her Pretty Little Things: I'm still waiting for her own songs. I have big expectations from her, but together I see much room for improvements, also physically like breathing control and, if she want to perform singing&dancing, greater management of energy to not mortify the show (the will is sometimes not enough if you don't have strenght and endurance). I am aware of commenting somewhat detached from Courtney's early days, where instead I was super enthusiastic. Let's say that I have now taken a chair and I am looking very confidently. If they are roses they will bloom (
I really liked Courtney when I first saw her on AGT but like this style a lot more. I guess I like music that moves me from the inside out. I wrote this while she was singing the song... then basically you said the same thing after the song so a guess we agree.
I'm so with on that. She's there on rock, but she's super good on soul's. There's no one at that age to match her in the passion and depth of soul. They'll have to search the entire world .🌍😅🌹💐🌹
You should check out a band from Oslo, Norway under the name of Kalandra. Singer Katrine Steinbeck. Their cover of Helvegen is chilling. That should get you some overseas comments. Love your takes on singers and songs. 😎❤️🖤
Hi, I am an American living in the Philippines most of the year, and of course, the beaches are great, but the singers are amazing, maybe it is something genetically about their vocal cords or critical moms pulling you by the ear and saying it's not perfect yet (not that bad but almost). I normally get woken up a Saturday morning by some neighbors kid belting out a song on karaoke (which a Filipino invented). You need to react to Mossette Armon " Akin Ka Na Lang" on the Wish Bus it has English sub, or one of her other songs. Also Darren Espanto "Chandelier" there are many others but those two are a good start. So come to the Philippines for a concert.
I love that kid!! She can sing the phonebook and make it worth listening to! From New Zealand, Aotearoa- the land of the long white cloud! We have ten sheep per head of population!🤣
I know this is late but I'm going through artists I like. I'm from Trinidad & Tobago (Caribbean), you know, you're annoying The Warning/Grace fan! Your request is fun but hard because Country is ALL about tourist attractions, LOL! Every spot a tourist will love. I do unfortunately have to warn people (I hate it but I'm honest) about crime in my country. You have to be smart where you go now but if you have a trusted guide. my country has the best and largest Carnival of it's kind. Brazil and ours are totally different in that we allow and encourage everyone to join the 'MAS' (costume) bands! And of course anyone of our beaches!(with safety guide to advise you) - Great reaction to Courtney!
Hello from France Maunalee ! I found you by your first reaction about Angelina Jordan, and I wasn't surprised that you like (love ?) the same young artists than me: Courtney, Grace and Amira. You may like also Rhema Marvane who sang gospel since she was 6 years old but unfortunately has disapear from YT because of familly disorders. I can't tell you what to visit in France, there's too much to see ;-) Anyway, thank you for your reactions, I'm waiting for more
@@musicwithmaunalee Hi ! Maunalee. I'm from Bretagne and live in Normandie, 100km from Paris. I'm 51 years old and l like all kind of music. That said, since I discovered Angelina, I mostly listen to her. But Courtney, Grace and Amira come just after
Coming from England and only a few miles from Courtney's home who will in the future will leave us to be part of your world, advantages of living here are most of us have good manners and we have no guns but above that we have a Courtney.
She has a lot of character in her voice, and lots of emotion. She's a natural performer. Her version was much better than the original IMO. BTW, I'm from Tasmania, Australia. If you ever make it to the other side of the planet, you shouldn't give Tassie a miss. We have Tasmanian Devils and everything. :)
You've got the greatest facial expressions. You chew your lip and your eye brows start knitting a sweater. Don't take that as a negative. It's all very endearing that your emotions are on such transparent display, so if a song makes you cry, cry.
@The Grateful Brad Aaaahhhhhh! What you wrote to Maunalee was So Sweet, almost Poetic! People need to communicate on social media in a similar way as yourself. i think Music reactors like Maunalee deserve some praise & encouragement. Reacting to something in front of the whole world, the largest audience ever, isn't something I could do. As well as being Articulate, easy to understand, intelligent etc. I'm looking forward to watching your next reaction, from New Zealand.
Terrific reaction video girl, very refreshing. From UK (England), also honeymooned in St Lucia in 1995. You obviously like emotion music - try Camel - Ice.
Yes, love your reaction. Especially the emotional part. She does this better than Ed Sheeran just as she does Sucker better than the Jonas Brothers. I can listen to her without video and still really enjoy her. Without the video to back them up, most singers are just not emotionally engaging (even with video, many are not).
I see a lot of reaction videos but most people are not really touched by the music emotionally. They’re liking Courtney’s music but are really experiencing it on a superficial level; voice control, lyrics, range, etc. You are connecting emotionally as evidenced by everything in your reaction. Goosebumps in the first 30 seconds, the sighs, etc. You feel it, as I do. It’s great to see someone else floored by her emotionally. She has a magnificent voice, incredible range and control and is technically a very talented singer but it’s her ability to imbue the songs with powerful emotion that really makes her a superstar. I feel sorry for people that can’t connect emotionally to Courtney, they’re missing out on so much.
Thank you so much for your comment! I really appreciate it! And I’m so happy to meet other people who have an emotional connection to music. Welcome! :)
I agree with you totally, Stewart. A reaction video should add something to the original. I find that I appreciate Courtney's singing even more when I am hearing and seeing someone else's emotional connection to it.
This young girl just brings me to tears every time I hear her sing these slow, sad songs. This is her majesty. Such an old soul. I could listen to her forever. God bless this beautiful child!
Stewart Johnson her more recent covers make me cry.
Ann Carroll I love when she covers songs like Sign of the Times, the more ballad-y stuff where her incredible voice and emotionality are on display, unencumbered by a lot of theatrics. I find it almost impossible not to cry when watching this video.
COURTNEY is one of a kind ! there is no one like her ! so much emotions, feeling and love for her music !
Hi there from here on the Mid North Coast of Australia, I am a 78 year old man who has become totally overwhelmed with the sheer brilliance of Courtney's amazing talent, she is the very best in the world today.
She sing with emotion and lives what she sings. Gets to your heart and soul every time.❤❤🎉😊
I have listened to this dozens of times and never get tired of Courtney’s simply amazing voice that gives me goosebumps every time. She is totally unique, one of a very special kind with no equal.
Courtney is a complete performer. Her stage presence does not feel like a defense mechanism. Her versatility shines comparing this to Papa's Got A Brand New Bag. She can come at you from all directions. I'm mesmerized watching her on stage. Her voice for me is unmatched in her age group and beyond. And yes, a 10 without question. 👍💯
This is really Courtney's wheelhouse. At age 11 she was slaying ballads by Steven Tyler, Etta James, Jessie J., Elvis, Michael Jackson, and others. Today she said she wanted to show her "softer side" and released this as her first of 4 on the EP "The Cover Sessions."It was followed by "Sucker" "Someone You Loved" and Old Town Road." Courtney will be a smash with her
rocker/R&B persona, but she will always shine with this type of music. I hope she does not forget her roots. Nice reaction!
@@sedfierisentio Thanks!
Yes listen to the other covers she did in this session.
I did not know that Courtney was so much more than just a super rocker. She is amazing

She was bullied for her singing. Told she sounded like a boy. Hah! There's a message there for young singers. Thanks for your passion, personal raw & vulnerable.
Absolutely love your reactions to Courtney. You bring as much emotion to the performance as she does.
Two things always stand out about Courtney beyond her obvious vocal and performing skills:
1. Her tremendous vocal range and versatility. She can do Rock, R&B, Funk, Soul and Ballads without any drop off in quality. I can't think of any artist, old or new, that can pull that off as well as she does. The book's still out on opera.
2. You're never going to hear anything that sounds like the original when she does a cover. Why do a cover if you don't have a different take on the song and Courtney never lets you down. It's always all Courtney, sometimes to the extent that the relation to the original is almost unrecognizable. If you think what she did to this pop song was amazing, wait until you hear what she's done to the Jonas Bros. 'Sucker', the last of her recent covers on her Vevo channel. It will blow your mind.
I get where you're coming from on her AGT classic rock performances. I personally love them, but there are others who share your view and prefer this style of Courtney. But frankly speaking, how many 13/14 year-olds have we seen rocking out to James Brown, Tina Turner and Janis Joplin.
Personally, I can't decide. I think all versions of Courtney are the best.

Yes!!! You are so right! She never ceases to amaze me! I’m always so excited when I get recommendations for more of her songs!
many times ( if not all the times ) Courtney's cover is better than the original. personal preference is part of it, more often its sure quality, sometimes by far and away ....
I see the new Queen is coming in town, God, I love her so much, great talent with confidence and innocence.
That’s another 10/10 for Courtney,what an amazing voice she has,and she’s only 15! what a natural talent,really amazing,love every song she covers more than the originals.❤️
When she was 11 she did Elvis's I will aways love you. You this was coming out of a 11 year old.
Holy crap the emotion and soul she puts into her music is mesmerizing.
From New Zealand. So much diversity of natural environments in short distances.Courtney is growing in her style with confidence.
Courtney was the first singer I got hooked on back in Feb 2019 when I rediscovered music!
SUPER STAR OF THE TWENTY FIRST CENTURY. TORONTO
She is living the songs and we are allowed to be a part of it. She's unbelievable talented and one of the best entertainer I've ever seen. Love it!
Greats from good old Germany!
Sorry... can't say only one amazing thing you have to see in Germany. We have so many beautiful places.
Do you love the beauty of nature? Or do you like to see historical places? Modern architecture? We have all of them.
You should like the midage towns "Rothenburg ob der Tauber", "Bamberg" or the palace Sanssouci in Potsdam. The beauty of the "Mecklenburgische Seenplatte". Oh God... there are so many things to see.
Courtney Hadwin worderfully spectacular as always. Courtney Hadwin her talent is already recognized worldwide .
This is an amazing performance...thanks for the reaction!
I thought I might be the first to comment on this, Maunalee, but people have already beat me a few seconds ago. Anyway, thank you for finally doing Courtney who is my favorite of all the new voices. Her emoting during her singing is one of her outstanding talents. She does run the gamut of many styles that she interprets in her rock/soul/blues manner, including "jumping around on stage" like her idols James Brown and Elvis. And she can do the slow ballad thing. Different people like one or the other; I like them both and in between!
My favorite of all of the new singers as well! By a mile! (although there are other good, young singers out there)
Hi Rick lol
you are so right !
Your reactions are uplifting. You pay attention too. I've been watching a bunch of other reactions today for Angelina's AGT performance, and some tend to talk over and even sing over the performance too much. Drives me nuts. Courtney and Angelina are the kind of performers you want the reactor to feel what you feel and already know when those moments come. There's parts of every performance that as a viewer you are hoping the reactor is paying attention to. When it happens, so do the goosebumps. So thanks for your reactions the way you do. I'm not sure but my guess is when Courtney found old school music while watching old classics on RUclips, she may have wanted everyone to feel the same as she did when she saw them for the first time. So maybe she was trying to make sure everyone watching got her message by really giving it her all on stage in the beginning. And as time went on she, as we all do, learned to be more at ease. There's a saying "Less is More". And it definitely works sometimes. But sometimes you just need to let it all hang out. I kinda prefer the later with Courtney moreso, myself. Here stage performance really makes me feel like a kid. I also love these performances too. I guess I'm more of a dedicated rocker and blues person though. Courtney has many more covers like this as a younger Courtney I'm guessing you'll enjoy too. Not as well produced as her Vevo channel stuff, but still very good. Here's one of Aerosmith's cover of "Don't want to miss a thing" ruclips.net/video/jjmwOEnFIns/видео.html Please keep on doing Courtney. We get withdrawals when things are quiet on her, at least I do. lol
Drive's me nuts too. It's downright disrespectful to the artist they are reacting to, with the whoops, and hollers, and singalongs, and other meaningless blather, while the artist is singing. They're excuse is, "Hey I'm just reacting. That's what I do." And I say, "baloney, your reaction is fake!" I despise those channels. I don't always agree with Maunalee, but her reactions are genuine, and most of all, respectful to the artist.
@@rotorhead-fy7nc Agreed. I felt bad today when I told a new reactor a few things I thought would help out with reaction because he talked loudly all the way through and his volumes were so uneven with the video to his mic. But I had to delete it. I thought I'd just move on and let someone else tell him. I tend to get worked up when someone's reaction is overdone or the volume settings are wrong. I move on often now. And thanks for the Pinned comment Maunalee.
@@bertpainter8385 Me too. Early on I might have commented , but was usually told it was "my channel" so I just move on like you. It doesn't take but a few seconds to know what it's going to be like. Volumes are another thing that rives me nuts. Hear the reactor way, way too loud and can barely hear the artist. Rubbish!
Thank you for your response she is totally awesome and I enjoy your total honesty about thing's. Ok you asked about other countries- I'm from south Africa- the wonderful blessing we have of no matter where you go in south Africa the way of life and culture is awesome and a wonderful way to for your children to enjoy nature and cultures of every type and there's no end to new experiences everytime you step out of your home. The sea the mountains the deserts the forest's the wilderness the wild animals the people the "everything". South Africa is great but I also wish to experience other counties!!. Please keep courtney courtney hadwin growing she will be the ultimate one in music
WOW, I've been waiting for your reaction to this song. great as always. Greetings from Germany ✌️😎💕🇩🇪
That 3 minute cover told a story better than most movies I’ve been to.....I didn’t want it to end.
I've been waiting for you to do this song. It still gives me goosebumps and tears in my eyes. A little background to why she sings this particular song. You may have heard it. Courtney has chosen this song for people to hear a softer side of her voice. After so many people thought she was just yelling and screaming on stage. But she already showed at a young age that she could sing ballads with much emotion. Sends you a link ruclips.net/video/ReKMhRLCtEQ/видео.html here 10years old
I am from Sweden but I am Danish. But, on the whole, have lived in Sweden all my life. I am from the southern part. Sweden has a lot to offer so it's hard to say anything specific. But if you come to Scandinavia don't miss Copenhagen I like that city better than Stockholm Then I mean the city, not its surroundings around the city. The archipelago in Stockholm and Gothenburg is beautiful.
I'm sending another link by Jonna Jinton. ruclips.net/video/RNjrUz1sgxQ/видео.html She is from Norrland it is the northern part of Sweden and shows what it looks like there. Her films, music and song. It is breathtaking. I hope you will enjoy.
Best regards // Kim
From Québec, Canada. French speaking. One great thing to do? Rent a small by a lake or a river. And you bring one thing: a Bluetooth speaker for phone. You listen to your Favourite soft music. Great nature, mountains and lakes. Love your reaction videos about Courtney. Excellent voice, excellent comments. You are fun to watch. Perfect!
That’s Courtney bearing her soul without fear, amazing.
She was on The Voice Kids years ago. Worth a look at from where she began.
I liked her the first time I saw her on America's got talent, I knew something special was going to happen before she even opened her mouth. I agree with Maunalee, I prefer this style rather than her wild stage antics (although I don't mind that either!) This is outstanding, I was almost in tears during the opening part. Such feeling and emotion, she knows how to deliver and she is mature beyond her age. The greatest talent in the making since Janis. I would be proud to play in her backing band...
What is remarkable about the quality of this, is that it was one of four videos recorded on the same day when she was still only 14. She was busy writing and recording for her album and also of course had her school work to do. This was just fitted in to give her fans something new during this necessary hiatus. Her first album will drop this year and there will be at least one video. She has also said she will be performing on several stages. She also plays keyboard and, now, guitar. Two recent Instagram posts are of her at home singing and strumming a guitar (Both have been picked up by RUclipsrs)
As requested, Hello from England. Courtney was asked to sing at Woodstock but unfortunately that got cancelled. This girl is a real rock star. I know because I lived through the 50's & 60's. Shame her career is on hold because of Covid. She was born about 20 miles from my old home town in North East England. Speaking of which if you ever do come to England, come and see Durham Cathedral which is in the region of one thousand years old.
boooobooo! "Jumping around on Stage remark?" Courtney is UNIQUE and AMAZING! Full blown Rock Star!
courtney is just so original....i think its great...i wish her all the success in the world..
I prefer this to the original and I like the minimalist musical backing and the way it then builds, nice dynamics, admirably goes with her voice and singing style , she does have a terrific voice, it benefits from not being over produced. I agree with the "jumping around on stage" perspective. (Keith - England - Avebury Stone circle)
I loved this performance. I also loved her FUN BOMB performances!
She is amazing. This music is not her style but she killed again. Complete singer!!
Solano from Brazil
3 10's out of 3 for Courtney!!
Another great reaction! Off topic, I love your bangs ❤
Before I forget, Maunalee, you had asked about Courtney's age. You are correct - She's still ONLY 15!!! Oh, and this is the 3rd song you've reviewed for Courtz, and the 3rd 10 you've awarded her. I like it!!!
Amen! --don
Hi from the UK, Yorkshire , known as "gods own country", the city of York was the ancient capital of England . Getting back to the subject at hand, Cortney hasn't changed this much from the Harry styles version, but what it does do is show off her vocal range. I love that falsetto and I must add that the guitarist absolutely slays it, almost as good as courtney's singing. Keep up the great reactions.
Harry did the falsetto in the same places in his original and live performances.
Great reaction, Maunalee! Love your passion and emotion for the songs you cover. AND just enough commentary, but not too much, to keep us engaged.
Although I've lived in the USA for decades, I was born in Lima, Peru and lived there till I was 10. My mom's side of the family lives in the Lima area, so I return with my family every 2-3 years. Touristy must-see would be one of the 7 wonders of the world: The Inca ruins, Machu Picchu. Less touristy: The Peruvian, Amazon jungle (we spent 4 days in the middle of the jungle last year!) and Lima is actually a big foodie destination with 3 of the top 50 restaurants in the world and wonderful foods overlooking the Pacific Ocean coast!
Back to Courtney . . . You've covered 3 of her latest 4 covers. Would you mind covering her last, recent cover and to finish with that 4. It's not a ballad, like you prefer from her, it's a very funky song. She took a pop'ish song by the Jonas Brothers, "Sucker" and added lots of funk and a little blues to come up with this lively version - ruclips.net/video/iF53gkY0JiM/видео.html
Like you, my favorite 2 of 4 Courtney covers are both ballads, "Sign of the Times" and "Someone You Loved". And, like you, I LOVE her 70's look that she pulls off wonderfully!
Hi from Norway! I'm a new subscriber after watching your Dimash reaction. I really liked that and will watch your other reactions too. If you ever visit Norway, go north. In the winter you'll have the northern lights and in the summer, the midninght sun. I live in the southwest, but I'll never forget my visit up north many years ago, visiting my mothers birthplace. Looking forward to more reactions from you!
Her voice comes from her heart and soul, then it goes straight to your heart and soul, she just pulls you into the song, she is awesome ! I love her, the best talent I've heard in 62 years ? God bless her !
Great reation, my idol is so especial,thas amazing cover,?hi I’m from Miami, hat city , you amazing person 👍👍👍👍👌
O WOW SHE'S AWESOME young woman. Bring it on COURTNEY 🤗👏
Visceral is the word you want; that is at the heart of Courtney's style. This is astounding in its contrast, yet Courtney remains true to her R&B rooted soul; it is a genuine demonstration of her growth as an artist. Love from America where rock and roll was born.KDM
Lots of folks only know Courtney from AGT, and assume that's her "style." Well currently it is, but Courtney with these covers, as she stated, is trying to let you see her "softer" and more "modern" style, that really has been her foundation since age 9. If you don't know Courtney from Before AGT, here a little primer into the amazing talent that Courtney has always had. Here are 4 covers from her at age 11, that showcase her talent IMO. If you haven't seen them, please watch.
“All I Could Do Was Cry” Etta James cover ruclips.net/video/YGbEAuy0y4o/видео.html
“Who You Are" Jessie J. cover ruclips.net/video/hpeNkRAM4hg/видео.html
“I Don't Want To Miss A Thing" Aerosmith cover ruclips.net/video/jjmwOEnFIns/видео.html
“Who’s Loving You” Michael Jackson/Jackson 5 cover ruclips.net/video/rjpD_UQ2bXI/видео.html
Great choices and so many more. And after those there's the local hangouts she did, which are so cool to watch the look on her face when she gets all the applause from people who are really paying attention to a little 9 or 10 year old. Most likely all friends of friends and family coming out to support their favorite little singer around the block. lol Priceless is the smile on her faces when she hears the applause and screams of joy.
@@bertpainter8385 Agreed! I think the best videos of Courtney that shine a light onto what was to come, were her home practice of "I Dreamed A Dream" (even though that was not her role in the play) to see the emotion she could put into a performance at that young age, and her video where she sang "The Climb" wrapped in a blanket in her room, then 2 years later at the Mall, and finally at Julie's that showed her progression from 9 to 14. ruclips.net/video/RGJCkABegN8/видео.html

@@rotorhead-fy7nc Courtney's I dreamed a dream tells a story of many things about Courtney and family if people really pay attention to her surroundings in this video and put themselves in the place of the person taking the video. The fact that her brother and (sister I guess) sat there and listened while she did this says things (not sure many siblings would hang around while there sister practices). The support system seems very rooted, even then. As you said the emotion she shows at that age and the way she really opens her mouth to project her vocals, shows real determination. Things you just don't see from the average person especially at that age. Then that little peak at the video person (not sure why that was,but I can only guess). In other words she's not just the run of the mill kid trying to practice. She's putting everything into it. I like to over analyze things when I'm into it. lol. Which reminds me to ask this, does anyone know who Courtney's video person is over the years. Her dad, mom or other?
I liked your reaction, beautifully sung, real talent, I love her conviction. & Hi from New Zealand you must see our beautiful scenery & friendly people!!
Hi from Scotland 🏴 , you would love everything in Scotland from the architecture, hills and glens but especially the people , thanks for upload x
This young lady is awesome. Pure talent. Love her. I
Hi Maunalee, I live in the UK IN A Town called Luton, I was very inspired by the choices of your music and artists, God bless you
I completely agree with you about this setting versus her high energy, all over the stage performances. This is pure voice, pure emotion, no distractions, nowhere to hide, so deep and profound it would give a lamppost goosebumps. And this is from an ultra-shy 15 year old girl from northern England with a serious accent. I absolutely love her voice, her delivery, every cover she touches turns to gold, she makes me cry routinely. She is a music goddess.
I love your reaction videos and I just subbed (from Brooklyn, NY). Consider reacting to Darkness Keeps Chasing Me by Grace VanderWaal. You won’t be disappointed.
YES GRACE!
Windex commercial if you want to feel like crying. Yes they made a full length video of her song, "Beautiful Thing"!
I found the words to describe courtney- when I listen to her I actually hold my breath waiting to hear what shes going to do next with the song with her voice etc. If I could sing and had a wish I would want to be her. You never know where shes going to take you next with her take on a song. She makes you "live" her words.
Hi Maunalee. This IS Ric from Costa Rica, Central América. The beaches and rain forests. You, ur family and all your subscribers are welcome to visit us. Great job!
I feel you girl...
Now we are all excited for Courtney s voice to fully matured ...so that we all heard what Courtney sound like ...althoug I KNOW it ganna be GODLIKE..
Hi from Germany. Love you reactions and comments. And one thing you might want to see if you ever get to Germany is .... my home town? It is small and cute and over 2000 years old. And yes those are three zeros, like in two thousand.
Courtney Hadwin is the voice of this century.No need to analyze it to get that!.We are listening to a giant,a voice that comes along every 100 years.
That was absolutely beautiful!
Courtney is freakin amazing! 💙
ONE OF HER BESTEST SONGS, SHE IS FABULOUS!!!!!
I'm from the USA, if you go to Germany. Definitely go to the Black Forest! Amazing place. All of Germany is awesome. 👍
Great reaction... As always.. And cheers from Queensland And the Glasshouse mountains
SHES A UNIQUE SINGER.
AND WONDERFUL STAR GIRLSHES AMAZING.
Hi from the UK. I'm from Cheshire in Northern England, about 100 miles from where Courtney lives and only a few miles from me is the place Lewis Carroll lived and where he wrote Alice in wonderland 😊
As for your video I can honestly say that the background is irrelevant for your videos. It's your voice that I love. You sound like you'd be a great radio talkshow host. Like midnight caller.
I believe she said she was in radio. Great guess. I'm sure if she reads your comment she'll explain it again.
@@bertpainter8385 thanks for the info. It makes sense. Her voice is wonderful. Especially to my English ears. It's just so smooth and relaxing. She should do meditation tapes, I'd be so much more relaxed 😊
Oh my gosh! What an amazing compliment! And I bet money I’d adore your accent lol! I was in radio for a long time actually. So like the previous comment, good guess! 😝
@@musicwithmaunalee my accent is not exactly Downton Abbey English I'm afraid , so not sure you'd love it that much lol. But thanks 😁. Your my new favourite reviewer channel now so thank you for replying and I look forward to seeing and hearing your journey into the music of the world. If I may make a request, I'd love to hear what you think of Alejandro Aranda. His audition on American Idol last year was just amazing and if you haven't heard it already you might like it, especially the guitar playing.
Add to your list, another Courtney Hadwin reaction. You so obviously get the emotion she puts into a song. Love your reactions
I love her. She is so awesome. The way she sings, I eould have give anything yo sing like that. You go girl. No. 1 Fan I am.
Helllo from Germany ! If you ever should come to visit my country be sure to come during June, July or Sptember and watch the castle illumination in Heidelberg. It´s a marvolous firework and realy worth seeing.
She turned 18 yesterday... lemme just say she's drop dead gorgeous to go along with a Killer voice and stage presence!!!
If she dont blow up the music world... I'll be shocked! I mean she's up against Rap! It's Not even music compared to her abilities!!!
Hi from an English guy living in southern Spain. The speciality here in the beach bars is bbq sardines with sea salt
Hi from Norway
The best is three hours from courtney land, and living in Angelina land, the two of the best voices ❤️
Great reaction Maunalee. Glad you're still a Courtney fan. One thing to remember about Courtney is she does it her way so don't look at like it's a Harry Styles song or anybody else's when she does a cover. I'm not real fond of the dude who sang old town road or the song itself but I like Courtney's cover of it.
Apologies another comment about courtney I truly hope she never loses her inner truth about herself as that's what makes her untouchable by any other singer. I will always try to keep up with her progress because she touches my soul and spirit and heart and gives each song true meaning to each one that you can relate to
She can really belt them out! Been following her since she auditioned on AGT and Howie gave her the golden buzzer! She has also started playing guitar and writes her own music as well!
Love her voice and her style. The first time I saw her I wanted to see her in concert
Hi Maunalee. Good reaction. I love Courtney's voice and her way to put herself into all the songs she covers. Covers are all she do till now - ok except her Pretty Little Things: I'm still waiting for her own songs. I have big expectations from her, but together I see much room for improvements, also physically like breathing control and, if she want to perform singing&dancing, greater management of energy to not mortify the show (the will is sometimes not enough if you don't have strenght and endurance). I am aware of commenting somewhat detached from Courtney's early days, where instead I was super enthusiastic. Let's say that I have now taken a chair and I am looking very confidently. If they are roses they will bloom (
I really liked Courtney when I first saw her on AGT but like this style a lot more. I guess I like music that moves me from the inside out. I wrote this while she was singing the song... then basically you said the same thing after the song so a guess we agree.
ME TOO !
I'm so with on that. She's there on rock, but she's super good on soul's. There's no one at that age to match her in the passion and depth of soul. They'll have to search the entire world .🌍😅🌹💐🌹
I am a 59 yr OLd black lady living in the ghetto. ILOVEIT
Courtz tears me up in these "sitdown" recordings. Really.
Watch make you feel my love performed by Courtney Hadwin It's an Adele song.
This is one of the songs on her EP.
You should check out a band from Oslo, Norway under the name of Kalandra. Singer Katrine Steinbeck. Their cover of Helvegen is chilling. That should get you some overseas comments. Love your takes on singers and songs. 😎❤️🖤
Courtney and Greta van fleet just are so amazing performers take it in people it only happens once in are lifetime well. Once in my lifetime
Hi, I am an American living in the Philippines most of the year, and of course, the beaches are great, but the singers are amazing, maybe it is something genetically about their vocal cords or critical moms pulling you by the ear and saying it's not perfect yet (not that bad but almost). I normally get woken up a Saturday morning by some neighbors kid belting out a song on karaoke (which a Filipino invented). You need to react to Mossette Armon " Akin Ka Na Lang" on the Wish Bus it has English sub, or one of her other songs. Also Darren Espanto "Chandelier" there are many others but those two are a good start. So come to the Philippines for a concert.
Hi from Brazil, good job !!!
I am from North Carolina and Courtney is awsome
I love that kid!! She can sing the phonebook and make it worth listening to! From New Zealand, Aotearoa- the land of the long white cloud! We have ten sheep per head of population!🤣
Courtney Hadwin es increíble. !!!! Ella transmite algo especial !!!! Saludos desde Montevideo Uruguay. !!!!
What would my world make perfect? A duet by Courtney and Angelina.
I know this is late but I'm going through artists I like. I'm from Trinidad & Tobago (Caribbean), you know, you're annoying The Warning/Grace fan! Your request is fun but hard because Country is ALL about tourist attractions, LOL! Every spot a tourist will love. I do unfortunately have to warn people (I hate it but I'm honest) about crime in my country. You have to be smart where you go now but if you have a trusted guide. my country has the best and largest Carnival of it's kind. Brazil and ours are totally different in that we allow and encourage everyone to join the 'MAS' (costume) bands! And of course anyone of our beaches!(with safety guide to advise you) - Great reaction to Courtney!
She’s amazing
Okay, well done. I almost forgot about Courtney, but you did show us another side.
Hello from France Maunalee ! I found you by your first reaction about Angelina Jordan, and I wasn't surprised that you like (love ?) the same young artists than me: Courtney, Grace and Amira. You may like also Rhema Marvane who sang gospel since she was 6 years old but unfortunately has disapear from YT because of familly disorders. I can't tell you what to visit in France, there's too much to see ;-) Anyway, thank you for your reactions, I'm waiting for more
France??? Gah!!! You must know that my dream is to go to France. It has been for years and years. What part of France do you live in?
@@musicwithmaunalee Hi ! Maunalee. I'm from Bretagne and live in Normandie, 100km from Paris. I'm 51 years old and l like all kind of music. That said, since I discovered Angelina, I mostly listen to her. But Courtney, Grace and Amira come just after
Coming from England and only a few miles from Courtney's home who will in the future will leave us to be part of your world,
advantages of living here are most of us have good manners and we have no guns but above that we have a Courtney.
She has a lot of character in her voice, and lots of emotion. She's a natural performer. Her version was much better than the original IMO.
BTW, I'm from Tasmania, Australia. If you ever make it to the other side of the planet, you shouldn't give Tassie a miss. We have Tasmanian Devils and everything. :)
You've got the greatest facial expressions.
You chew your lip and your eye brows start knitting a sweater.
Don't take that as a negative.
It's all very endearing that your emotions are on such transparent display, so if a song makes you cry, cry.
Thank you so much! :)
@The Grateful Brad Aaaahhhhhh! What you wrote to Maunalee was So Sweet, almost Poetic! People need to communicate on social media in a similar way as yourself. i think Music reactors like Maunalee deserve some praise & encouragement. Reacting to something in front of the whole world, the largest audience ever, isn't something I could do. As well as being Articulate, easy to understand, intelligent etc. I'm looking forward to watching your next reaction, from New Zealand.
I too get goose bumps everytime I hear her
Right?????
With Courtney, Angelina, Charlotte Summers and others, this next ten years is going to be a wild ride - hang on! Great comments.
Terrific reaction video girl, very refreshing. From UK (England), also honeymooned in St Lucia in 1995. You obviously like emotion music - try Camel - Ice.
Kool reactions from new Zealand love kortney janis Joplin awesome yay
Hello I’m from Edinburgh the weather is super cool here! 🥶
Beautiful reaction. I find that some of the other reactors in the same situation just edit the pauses out.❤️❤️❤️
Yes, love your reaction. Especially the emotional part. She does this better than Ed Sheeran just as she does Sucker better than the Jonas Brothers. I can listen to her without video and still really enjoy her. Without the video to back them up, most singers are just not emotionally engaging (even with video, many are not).
