    @southerdaughter11 Thank you...I was singing very hard. This was my first back-up singing competition and I was very nervous. One of the singers of this drum passed away and him and his wife appreciated this song being sung in the honor of their family. I told him I was nervous and he said, "Just close your eyes and sing hard! Sing for the elders because that's what this song was made for. To honor our elders." =)

    You know how you can tell when someone is singing from their spirit? When you get goosebumps. That's your spirit waking up to listen.

      Приятели, Вие сте силни хора, на които се възхищавам от детството си. Предадох тази обич и уважение и на синовете си. Пристрастяването към тази отрова не подминава и вас. Бъдете добри с нея, не я корете, а се мъчете да я откъсне те от тази гадост. Бог с вас! ❤❤❤

    @joose6667 4 года назад +60

    You can tell in the first half song, she was nervous. (Plugging one ear to hear herself, I’m guessing to make sure she was in tune.) in the second half of the song, you see her slowly but surely grow more confidence. Then she finally lets go of her nerves and sings straight from her soul. She sounds absolutely beautiful.
