Havent seen this commented yet. The meaning behind "Evergreen" is before her mother died she told Yebba that if she ever gets to heaven before Yebba does, that when Yebba eventually passes on herself, to look for the biggest evergreen tree in heaven and her mother will be waiting there for her
This whole song is so much. I encourage you to listen to it full once, then again for the background vocal (choir and singers), and then just then again for the instrumentation. This song is a study. Her voice is the smooth, soulful, velvety, decadent icing on this delectable cake!
Her mother committed suicide which is only important to mention because that fact lends to the sadness she's emoting, as well as the lyrics to the song, such as, "it's just as hard in Heaven". It's the weaving of minor and major keys sigs that lends to that, as well.
It's also on the Mississippi River. I lived in the Memphis side on Mud Island and remember when the river would overflow...like her lyric in the second verse❤️
Bro you gotta react to her newer stuff like her npr tiny desk concert, boomerang live and all her electric lady performances they are all so so so gooooood!!
Yooo I literally have to keep rewind YOUR video back just because you're SOOOOOO on point with not only the vocals but the integral inserts with the beat. Meaning the choir and when they come in WITH the beat or ON the beat. SOME PEOPLE DON'T EVEN KNOW THE DIFFERENCE Awesome observance!!!
This is her childhood church, I believe. And I think it was the first time she'd sung there since her mother's passing, which is who/what the song is about.
Yes, she grew up in the church...gospel music is her foundation. The 'Clark Sisters' were her musical inspiration...and it shows in her vocals...Yebba's got skills, truly! 👍 BTW, I've been binge watching on ur reaction videos all day! Lol😄
Ahh I'm so flattered. Thank you so much ❤️ Yea I was sure I'd heard somewhere she had her roots in gospel. I mean come on now. You don't even need to know that to know that right!
Love your content man!! I love watching true lovers of music react to incredible musicians You've done some Tiny Desks. Have you seen the Tank and the Bangers tiny desk cuz it's AMAZING
Always good to see another yebba reaction, brother. If you haven't reacted to any of St. Paul And The Broken Bones, I highly recommend doing so. The band is incredible and the vocalist has a phenomenal soul singing voice. All the best, mate!
Mate, they are one of my favourite bands. Their tiny desk was immense (and the shoes 😂). If you have any suggestions I'll be happy to do any I haven't seen/heard
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel Ah, right on man lol I'm sure you've heard anything that I have then. It's a shame that more reactors don't know who they are. Another incredible vocal performance I can think of is a cover of 'Rise Up' by Morissette Amon. If you haven't seen that one, I recommend doing a reaction to it. Thanks for your time bro, good luck with the channel. Peace ✌
She definitely came up in the church in West Memphis, Arkansas on the Mississippi border. She wrote this song for her mother after she committed suicide
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel Not sure if you’ve done it or not but you DEFINITELY MUST do Clark Beckham ft. Yebba-Gravity (John Mayer Cover)............INCREDIBLE!!
I've already seen it that's the only problem. It's one of my favourites. I've had a lot of requests though so maybe I'll do a watch along like this one again
Yebba is amazing truely, and yes she HAD to come up in some bodies down home Bapti-costal chu'ch in Memphis. If I may suggest Ms Callie Day 2 songs 1st Hear My Prayer the Berea College Festival of Spirituals 2nd For Every Mountain the version with the orchestra and the director in Athens royal blue dress. I am sure I could not be the only person suggesting these. I am also sure you have seen/heard them both, on word POWERFUL. the 2nd has me in tears and sends me into worship EVERY SINGLE TIME. Enjoy. Oh yeah, quite teasing us singing just a tidbit and then stop CUT IT OUT you better sang
Ahh yes I've seen hear my prayer a million times. It's pretty much my favourite thing in the Internet. In fact I was chatting with Callie on Instagram the other day. She's so lovely. I will put 'For every mountain' on my list though 😊
omg you’ll LOVVVEEE pentatonix , they’re an a paella group that could pull off and sing anything !! i recommend their video “evolution of michael jackson” i know you’ll love it PLEASE do a reaction 😩😩😩
Hey Charlie, thanks for your videos and reactions. Really enjoying your style and comments. I’m sure you get heaps of requests but I think you would really like Diana Ankudinova. Try Wicked game to start then move onto Rechenka if you’re game. She is only 14 or 15yo in those performances. If you like unique talent you won’t be disappointed.
Okay dude, got this video queued to watch after the one I'm currently watching, but gotta say first . . . kinda wanna tell you to put da guns away, yer gonna distract me! 😉 Not long found Yebba myself (don't really follow music) so looking forward to this 😁
Hey charlie new subs here i watched your reaction to dimash... Try to react to marcelito pomoy THE PRAYER on wish bus... Celine dion and andrea bocceli... Marcelito is another alien beside dimash... You will not be disappointed... Tnx... Im looking forward to your reaction
Hi, I'm new to your channel. Although I really enjoy your reactions, I have a suggestion. Although your viewing screen placement is cool, It is really difficult to see details. Especially sub titles impossible to read. For those of us unfamiliar with the artist or language. Please could you make viewing screen larger. Thank you
I'm afraid when I make the screen bigger most of my videos get taken down for copyright Infringement. I got tired of doing 5-6 hours work for nothing. I'm sorry if the viewing experience is less than ideal
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel text often makes something read like sarcasm, don't mean this as such. I'm not a reactor, but have been watching reaction videos for few years. In my experience usually if video is taken from artist youtube channel, doesn't get blocked. Exceptions...if it is a cover song, n someone else or company owns the copyright. Some countries will block if intentionally or unintentionally product placement, unless reactors sponsor and reactor mentions this as such. Example wearing a shirt with picture of a product or actually product in camera range. RUclips can get weird, it will randomly block if reactors don't pause and comment enough. Hope these observations help
@@dorothymccarty2161 thanks for the comments Dorothy. I have 13 years experience uploading my own covers etc to RUclips. Reactions work differently. It is simply an algorithm that picks up copyrighted material. This happens pretty randomly but can be helped by cropping and reducing the window size and changing the pitch of the music (which I don't like doing). Even then it's not failsafe. Pausing more doesn't really help at all. I tried putting 4 second breaks every 20 seconds in on some of my videos and it made no difference. The algorithm picked up the sections still no matter how small I made them. Larger accounts sometimes get given permission because of the extra exposure they create but even then it depends who the copyright owner is. If the owner is an entertainment corporation then they don't care about exposure for the artist. They just want their money
@@TheCharlieSmithChannel Thank you. LOL My son often says, It's not artist blocking but lawyers. As a reactor, must get flustrating for you. May you and yours stay safe and healthy 😊
Hello! Very much enjoy your reactions and comments, would you please check out Hua Chenyu, one of the top Chinese musicians/composers/performers at the moment, his songs Seek, Ashes from Fireworks, Madhouse, 7 Personalities.

That is so incredibly touching. Thanks for the background!
Oh my gosh!!! This just made me lose it!!
Sounds made up
Luke Levenson ft Yebba "Smoke" is another different feeling and different expression of her artistic ability.
I was going to suggest that one too
When I say her and Luke be having me in another world when I'm driving to Smoke!!!
Smoke is everything! She's all over those notes like butter on popcorn. Luke's voice complements hers so well.
You better give us that little vocal at 1:57 bruh 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thanks bro. Glad you liked it 😎
This whole song is so much. I encourage you to listen to it full once, then again for the background vocal (choir and singers), and then just then again for the instrumentation. This song is a study. Her voice is the smooth, soulful, velvety, decadent icing on this delectable cake!
It certainly is all of those things ❤️
Beautifully said.
Her mother committed suicide which is only important to mention because that fact lends to the sadness she's emoting, as well as the lyrics to the song, such as, "it's just as hard in Heaven". It's the weaving of minor and major keys sigs that lends to that, as well.
Love this! Her father was pastor of a church and she was choir director, according to sources. I wonder if she arraigned these.
She’s from my hometown of West Memphis Ar church all in her plus the blues of memphis
Thanks for the info Travion.
That makes perfect sense now
It's also on the Mississippi River. I lived in the Memphis side on Mud Island and remember when the river would overflow...like her lyric in the second verse❤️
Do you know her?? Gahhhh I need more info .. she’s from the heavens!!
@@avivanicole3062 I don’t but my lil brother knew her
Finally! Been waiting on this one❤️ & yes she came from the church her father was a pastor
That makes perfect sense 🌟
If you really want to see her gospel side, check out her duet of Gravity with Clark Beckham (some good piano playing as well).
Yes I've seen it already. I love that so much 😁❤️
odd, didn’t like that one.. but she is a phenom and I like they didnt just cover Mayer …
You have to see her Tiny Desk Concert, live performances of her latest, brilliant work! A totally different sound!
I've seen it many many times. She's amazing 😁
Yes, she was in Church and The Clark Sisters were a favorite of hers.
Makes total sense. Thank you 😊
Bro you gotta react to her newer stuff like her npr tiny desk concert, boomerang live and all her electric lady performances they are all so so so gooooood!!
OK, one last reaction vid before sleep 😂
Haha enjoy bro
I said this 5 reactions ago. I'm so sleepy! It's 2:21am lol
Yooo I literally have to keep rewind YOUR video back just because you're SOOOOOO on point with not only the vocals but the integral inserts with the beat. Meaning the choir and when they come in WITH the beat or ON the beat. SOME PEOPLE DON'T EVEN KNOW THE DIFFERENCE Awesome observance!!!
Thank you so much man. I appreciate the appreciation haha. Thank you for watching 👊🏼
Yes, she did.
This is her childhood church, I believe. And I think it was the first time she'd sung there since her mother's passing, which is who/what the song is about.
Also: she's said that she's heavily influenced by The Clark Sisters. And it's evidence. She has all the sisters in her vocal chords all at once.
Thank you Mila. I appreciate you ❤️
Beautiful - Ty Charlie 🙏🏼 soulful is understatement 🤍tica🇺🇸
Yebba just dropped a new single "October Sky" which is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Her song Distance was nominated for a Grammy this year and there is an official lyrics video. Please check it out!
Yebba♥️
♥️Totally EPIC!! She is incredible!!! ♥️
You made me notice notes about the choir that I missed before. Thank you! 🌷
The song is even more beautiful now!
The Clark Sisters are her #1. Her inspiration.
Yes, she grew up in the church...gospel music is her foundation. The 'Clark Sisters' were her musical inspiration...and it shows in her vocals...Yebba's got skills, truly! 👍 BTW, I've been binge watching on ur reaction videos all day! Lol😄
Ahh I'm so flattered. Thank you so much ❤️
Yea I was sure I'd heard somewhere she had her roots in gospel. I mean come on now. You don't even need to know that to know that right!
Thank you for mentioning the vibrato!!! I knew I wasn't the only only one noticing. 😂 😂 😂
thank you Charlie that was a great reaction...love your knowledge of music
Thank you for reacting! ❤️
My pleasure!! 😁
She has said that The Clark Sister's were a big influence on her
After watching a lot of your videos I should have known that you have voice I caught you @1:57 now I want to hear sing more please.
Love your content man!! I love watching true lovers of music react to incredible musicians
You've done some Tiny Desks. Have you seen the Tank and the Bangers tiny desk cuz it's AMAZING

Note she never pushes, never forces. She is a master. Normally a lot of runs distract me and seem contrived. NOT HERS.
you had me at the jhene aiko reaction but now you SING??? ok sir. you’ve earned my sub 💝
Yea she's a preachers kid from Arkansas I believe so she definitely came up in the church.
pls react to thirdstory’s hotline bling
I will put it on my list for you 😁
Yes! And also ThirdStory and Eryn Allen Kane singing Still In Love, it’ll blow your mind!
@@erinhafer228 Hey Erin. I've actually seen that one many many times. It's one of my favourites 😁
I'm sure I heard her say she's a PK (pastor's kid). She has a lovely personality too.
She definitely came up in the church in West Memphis, Arkansas on the Mississippi border. She wrote this song for her mother after she committed suicide
NEW SUBSCRIBER HERE!! Awesome reaction!! And she grew up in church in Memphis, her dads a pastor.

Need you to react to Tasha Cobbs and Kierra Sheard "Your Spirit" and "Something Has To Break" 🔥🔥🔥
They are already on my list 😉. Stay tuned for Gospel Sundays 😁
omg you’ll LOVVVEEE pentatonix , they’re an a paella group that could pull off and sing anything !! i recommend their video “evolution of michael jackson” i know you’ll love it PLEASE do a reaction 😩😩😩
I know pentatonix well. Their version of 'Joyful Joyful' with Jazmine Sullivan is one of my favourite things ever 😍
Hey Charlie, thanks for your videos and reactions. Really enjoying your style and comments.
I’m sure you get heaps of requests but I think you would really like Diana Ankudinova. Try Wicked game to start then move onto Rechenka if you’re game. She is only 14 or 15yo in those performances. If you like unique talent you won’t be disappointed.
I LOVE YEBBAAAAA. SHES BEEN DROPPING SONGS, DISTANCE, LOUIEBAG, aaaand BOOMERANG JUST CAME OUT 14 hours ago! REACT TO IT!
Thank you for the heads up. I will put them on the list
I Love this song and this version. But imma be honest i think this may be one of the only songs that i love the studio version better than the live.
Listen to her sing It live
And by the way it's a duet hehehehe
Okay dude, got this video queued to watch after the one I'm currently watching, but gotta say first . . . kinda wanna tell you to put da guns away, yer gonna distract me! 😉 Not long found Yebba myself (don't really follow music) so looking forward to this 😁
