@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind I love listening to your reactions. I sent an email about another Angelina song. I know you have a long list to listen to so I will wait patiently for that one. And I understand about needing AC. My MS doesn't like it but I have to like it; that way my MS doesn't kick in.
She arranges all of her own songs, and she is the master behind the orchestra also. There is a video of one of her songs that shows her back stage during a practice session where she is talking to the violin section and telling them how she wants them to come in. It’s all her. She is a master vocalist and arranger. She has he own music academy also. No matter the name of the song, it will not be what you think. It will be 10 times better.
Welcome to the world of SoHyang~!!! She is CCM/GOSPEL SINGER of South KOREA and cancer survivor. . She is one of the greatest vocalist in the world.But She wasn't known as well as popular because She sing for GOD and Comfort people who has hardtime Not for fame or money. ..In her youth, she turned down all offers from mega agencies for her beliefs...and now she is 44years old. .She has so many legendary live performances . She always sings with sincerity whenever and wherever. So it comforts those who listen to her song...That's why I love her...And her singing skills are the best, not to mention... This performance is just tip of iceberg.. . Thanks for your reaction of Queen Sohyang ♥
Sohyang does her own arrangements. Please react to Sohyang singing the jazz classic Misty (Begin Again version), I Have Nothing, I Will Always Love You (Begin Again outdoor version), Arirang Alone, Mona Lisa, If I Aint Got You, You Raise Me Up, and what she describes as her most challenging performance: Everyone. Also her own song: Stay
Thanks for keeping the reactions. We know RUclips can be very harsh with The copyright. There are very welcome for the followers of Our Queen So. Thanks from Perú
Thank you so much for reacting to SoHyang! Her range is just over 4 octaves and the soul she puts in and she never cheats, give her all ! Her story is also inspiring this little Gospel sing is in it for us and God ! Turned down the 3 Biggest recording companies in the world( Sony about 3 years ago)also reject all Asian companies.) she has about 30-40 masterpieces but all her Performance are Great- do not neglect her songs sung in Korean even without subtitles, you will discover you will get all the emotions of the song reguardless! Heard many of the Greats , I think she may be the best!?
Hey Tom. I've actually been reacting to more and more songs in foreign languages. I've really enjoyed it. I'll definitely be doing more reactions on her songs. Thanks for the listen.
She writes her own arrangements so your statement about the orchestra and choir "following her lead" was not far from the truth. Your comparison to Whitney and Mariah were also very spot on. You should check out her cover of 'I Have Nothing' from Immortal Songs and 'I Will Always Love You' from Begin Again: Korea, both are very impressive.
Kim So Hyang (stage name: Sohyang) is a South Korean singer. She's up there with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Celine Dion, according to David Foster, who worked with all of them, plus other big names in the music industry, such as Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, and Michael Jackson. In fact, many vocal coaches and critics call her the Queen, and Dimash the King. Here are several links for a bunch of excellent performances by Kim So Hyang (Sohyang). Many are from competitions where she pulls out all the stops and goes into vocal beast mode. The last 5 are more restrained. You can alternate between the styles, just to experience the contrasts and see her range of abilities.

They were all amazed. He invited her to sing on his tour in Asia. She did 8 shows in 4 days in Tokyo. Foster co-wrote that song. He arranged and produced it for Whitney for her album, and her performance in "The Bodyguard".
Welcome to Sohyang's world. Good pronunciation. She has published 13 novels so far I believe. She is also a cancer survivor and quite an inspiration. Funny you say she reminds you of Mariah Carey, the media dubbed her the Korean Mariah Carey. Us fans though we call Sohyang herself as there is no one else quite like her. Yes she has been compared to both Whitney and Celine. She has covered some of their songs. I would suggest to start with: "Arirang Alone" from immortal Songs 2 "I Have Nothing" DMC festival "Lean on me" Immortal Songs 2 "You Raise Me Up" Immortal songs 2 " I Will Always Love You" from Begin Again Korea.
Hi Jo. Her runs definitely remind me of Mariah. She's really an amazing talent. So glad I finally found her!! Thanks for the recommendations...and for the listen.
Oh, this was gentle as to her range. It is insane also. I have heard her sing live up to an A6, and she is said to have a range up to a D7. In the sound DREAM at the DMC festival, she goes up to a mixed D6 at the end and it’s live. Her live shows are like a studio recording. She does not make mistakes.
Correction: At the DMC Festival, she sustains D6 in head voice. The one you're referring to is from the year before where she hit a mixed C#6 in a run and D6 in headvoice.
So you get me Steve! AC or divorce. Her choice. Kidding. I'm really looking forward to hearing more from her. Really an amazing voice and from what I hear, an amazing person as well.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind Sohyang's range extends from D3 to Eb7, That is four octaves and a semitone. She never sings in the 7th octave because it is useless to do so. That is just a squeak so why bother? But her 5th and 6th octave voice is the best in the world. Period. So no, her range is not limited. You'll see when you listen to enough of her performances which are about 99% LIVE!
Woah .. loved your reaction & ♥️ SoHyang! I live in FL so no AC would be grounds for divorce, lol (jk)! SoHyang is a 44 yr old Christian Gospel singer w/ no social media, who’s turned down huge offers for years to stay true to her faith mission. Btw she and her team do her arrangements, but her fans will come soon to fill you in! THX’s great video & hope 2CU ♥️
@@Tica..77 I am quoting that from John Wayne in "The Searchers" if you have ever seen that old but GREAT Western from 1956! His younger companion literally boots a Plains Indian woman from his bed and she rolls down an incline. It was a pretty funny episode of the movie, if you recall it. 😎👌
Thank you so much for great reaction and analysis. She always touches my heart and makes me cry. Her goal to sing is comforting peoples who are going through difficult times. She looks like an angel. Please more react to Sohyang. Have a nice day.
New subscribers~!!!! 👍Thank you for the very impressive and great reaction. Her vocal range is limitless and ᆢ she is the best live diva ᆢNon-renewable pure energy that does not use magic equipment
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind 🤑Oh, and admission to her concert is $7~$8 It is a happiness of $8, and her birthday is even more special these days, as she still plays on a small stage in the park, overcame cancer, and started a second life. She also performed at the Cancer Center on her birthday this time, and her office is still called the small office next to the church. pure and clean angel.
She propelled this amazing song to new hights. Her arrangement respects the original message of the song and enriches it. On the original song your friend is the "Bridge" on her interpretation God is the "Bridge". This particular performance is a seminar for passionate singing. This phenomenal lady, always delivers, by feeling her songs first.
Best version of BOTW ever. The arrangement is a masterpiece and the vocals simply stunning. Thank you for the reaction and a warm welcome to the amazing world of Sohyang. Check out her rendition of You Raise Me Up next from Immortal Songs 2 (2018).
I knew this version would impress you. It's the best version i've ever heard. Bob, your comments on your wife makes me recall Henny Youngman's famous joke line " Take my wife...please".
I love this video~dust analysis♡Thank you for the wonderful reaction ㆍI have also made a suggestion~♡ I want to see more blessed CCM singer . She was first known through a media contest program, and she is an independent singer, not a label singer who rejected the offer of a large entertainment company. away from money and fame. Currently, she is listed for the first time in Asia with the highest level of "STAR" on the World Vocal Evaluation Site. Mariah, Whitney, Michael Jackson, Franklin, etc. mentioned in the same grade are the same level grade . You can view your profile, photos, and technical analysis. He is a masterclass vocalist recognized by experts. She said she wants to use her amazing powers where healing and comfort are needed for the sake of God. Sohyang on the channel~Have a nice day~ The next song is break time.. With an angelic voice and a lyrical song. ✔️2015.KBS ( Arirang alone) Immortal Song 2. 👈 English subtitles . Korean " folk song" (This song is a reinterpretation of the song that prays for reunification of the sorrow of the division between North and South Korea))

I personally recommend you to go with reaction of Sohyang's another heart melting performance, "Arirang Alone". You will be blown away for sure. Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/zFyndK9VOCk/видео.html Your wife will forget the aircondition running if she watches this with you by the stunning performance.🤩😊😋
LOL. I Soo. No, she's pretty firm on preferring fresh air over air conditioning. I've tried for years to get her to change her mind...no luck! Ha. I've bookmarked that video which officially puts it on the list. Thanks so much for the listen.
Hold on to your seat. Her range while knock you out. This is the best song to start with because it shows the power and resonance of her full chest voice belting with 14 G5s. That last G5 was mixed. This was my first introduction to her. There are many live videos of her. She does not however have any of her own social media but has a good fan base that posts her work.
We all wonder if Sohyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an angel come down from Heaven. 😇 We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. Her voice is, as one person described it, like liquid gold. Perfection in clarity and pitch, and she doesn’t fade in the upper octaves, which is startling when you hear her hit those 5th and 6th octave notes with such _POWER_ it actually gives everyone goose bumps-and makes us bald guys’ hair stand on end! As she says, her voice “is from God.” She does all the musical arrangements herself, with the input of her in-law family and musical assistants, teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks five languages: Korean, English, French, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading Greek! Let me catch my breath. OK. She is a cancer survivor from uterine cancer at the age of 20, just after getting married, and states very plainly that God saved her life due to the prayers of her church. But this left her without the ability to have children so she decided to dedicate her life to being a Contemporary Christian Gospel singer and has refused recording contracts from the biggest corporations in the world. She only wants to sing for charities, churches and while doing missionary work, to strengthen those suffering through difficult times. David Foster, Josh Groban, Michael Bolton and others have all eagerly worked with her when they were in Asia. She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her, she has suffered from it on so many occasions. Imagine how she must feel with this coronavirus floating around everywhere! She just turned 44 on April 5, 2022, though in Korean culture she would be 45 because you are deemed to be one year old when you are born. She was about 37 when she sang this version of “Arirang Alone”, their unofficial national anthem based on a 600 year old folk song expressing their desire to reunify north and south: vimeo.com/308253527 After being sick with pneumonia eight times from 2016 through to 2020, and considering giving up singing altogether, she decided to enter a televised singing contest called “King of the Masked Singers” in 2017 and won six consecutive times, which has catapulted her into international attention from the performances being posted on RUclips. Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on RUclips and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted Sohyang and went to Japan in order to have her perform eight concerts with him at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018. For those who don't know, David Foster was Whitney Houston's producer for some of her songs, wrote "I Have Nothing", her most iconic song, and is probably the most famous and influential music producer in the world. He places Sohyang right beside Whitney and the rest of the top tier divas. Here is the interview where Sohyang related the events: ruclips.net/video/EqeE_1nP-Kk/видео.html (Be sure to turn on English subtitles.) Here is the version of “I Have Nothing” Oprah, David Foster, Whitney's former manager and the rest watched on RUclips: ruclips.net/video/T4UyIMkdy4M/видео.html She preceded it with this blockbuster: vimeo.com/312061203 She could be an international Super Star if she wanted to be but has decided that it would ruin her spiritually, quoting Proverbs 14:12 “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.” In a South Korean television interview Sohyang conceded that she struggled with her desire for fame for a number of years, going into the basement in her home numerous times and closing the door so she could complain vehemently to God that He was holding her back from becoming famous due to her health problems and other unforeseeable events. Then she later saw a Korean TV drama where the talented daughter of a very successful businessman was positive she would take over when her father retired. But he left the management of the company to a woman she hated, so she had a fit and lay kicking and screaming on the floor. Sohyang says she saw herself in that young woman and then understood that God was keeping her from developing self-destructive character by withholding international celebrity status from her. ruclips.net/video/rl-jX9kBsEs/видео.html (Again, turn on English subtitles.) So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no social media presence whatsoever. What can one say about such a person? She is a literal Wonder Woman! And we need about a billion more just like her! On Oct. 5, 2020, it was revealed that Sohyang turned down _yet another_ contract offer, this time from Sony Music US. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200921000995 “Debuting in [the] US was my utmost goal for the past 20 years. But when I got a call from the US agency, I politely rejected, as I realized that what I wanted most was not becoming famous,” she said. “I think singers are very susceptible to arrogance, especially when they hear the screaming from crowds on stage. It can make you feel like as if you’ve become God.” “And I’m perfectly okay with sharing my music via RUclips, which can reach tens of millions of people all over the world without making me feel stuck up. Maybe that’s why I was born in this era.” Sohyang is just the most amazing singer, Christian and human being. She is beautiful both inside and out, and so humble and genuine, with a stage charisma, facial expressions and smile that is off the charts. In Korean dictionaries 소향--Sohyang--has several meanings. • First is a type of Korean traditional music. • Second is to burn incense on a burner. • Third is to go toward. But these meanings are rarely used today. Sohyang is also the name of a heroine in a Korean traditional novel. Yet for the definitive answer Sohyang has stated in an interview that her name means "enjoy the light." The name was given to her by her grandmother. Please analyze her performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water”: ruclips.net/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/видео.html Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: ruclips.net/video/LrNkVRrK7_I/видео.html Plus this beautiful duet with her friend Lee Hi where they do Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You”: vimeo.com/439148918 And this version of her singing “Oh Holy Night”: vimeo.com/322716334 Here she performs “Lean On Me” before Michael Bolton, who called her a vocal “virtuoso” after her performance: ruclips.net/video/GvsgCllcNPE/видео.html Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: ruclips.net/video/rte-q3kunp8/видео.html Her performance of "Fate" in Korean requires no translation: vimeo.com/198161448 And finally “Will You Be There”: ruclips.net/video/nBdSpexUxik/видео.html Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: ruclips.net/video/N2u_pmoWxj8/видео.html Her English is perfect when she sings and almost perfect when she is doing interviews. OK, I’ll stop gushing now. Well, one more gush. In an interview with a Turkish music producer Sohyang's assistants revealed (a bit to her chagrin, as she is a self-effacing person) that she can hit Eb7 and D7 in practise. However, she never goes above the 6th octave in performances. Since she starts at D3 that is more than a 4 octave range ... so how about them apples???! Here it is: ruclips.net/video/VnPAkryrygQ/видео.html I know, bananas isn’t it? Oh, I just remembered, she is also a published fantasy novelist and has a theological treatise on the Book of Revelation in print. In addition, she is a very good stage actress, which she proved by playing Julie Andrews’ part in the South Korean production of “The Sound of Music.” Moreover, she sang the “Moana” part in the Korean version of the Disney film, does the musical vocals for many South Korean television dramas, and is a talented artist and cartoonist. She taught herself English by watching Disney's "The Little Mermaid" "about one hundred times" when she was just a kid, speaks English with a _perfect_ North American accent and has an outgoing and bubbly personality. She can also play the piano and guitar. Is there anything this genius level woman can’t do? Ironically, Sohyang stated in another interview that both she and her in-law family were surprised to discover that she could sing so excellently! Though she is less than 5' 4" and only about 100 pounds, Sohyang simply transcends the thresholds of music and takes you there with her. She becomes the song when she sings it, and then re-emerges when she is done. An experience like no other. I don’t know what else to say. I’ve spent _entire days_ listening to her, and shed more than a few tears of joy along the way. I really must also compliment the choir, orchestra and audio/video production people Sohyang works with. They are all top notch from what I can see and hear, and that is important to note as these are _essential_ elements of any great musical production. The Korean people are easily as talented as anyone else. As you can see, I am a shameless fan. 😉
Thank you for the reaction to Sohyang ! another challenge? "You Raise Me Up " ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html or "Lean On Me" ruclips.net/video/GvsgCllcNPE/видео.html
Sohyang is always in sync with the orchestra because she is the one that does the arrangement. I am new to your channel because of Sohyang but I am aware that you are familiar with Dimash & Sohyang is often referred to as his queen, when Dimash is the king when it comes to vocals.
Thanks for another nice reaction - this time to SoHyang's cover of this Simon & Garfunkel classic. If you really are trying to like this song, highly recommend Sissel's cover which was done at a Norwegian fund raiser for Ukraine.
Given what you said about your wife and that you are still kept after the summer from last year, I have to assume that she is a good sport and can handle your sense of humor without trouble, but I do understand how the summer heat can sap one's spirit. Listening to Sohyang's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" was a wise decision. It can definitely refresh your depressed spirit and recharge your energy. It's true Sohyang's voice doesn't lower the room temperature, but it can help you forget your physical irritations by refocusing your mind on her vocal magic. I agree with your feeling on the song in its original form. The message in the lyrics is wonderful and the melody soothing but it doesn't offer any dynamic to keep the listener's attention if not emotionally engaged. In that case, it becomes an effective lullaby. However, Sohyang's rendition carries no such concern. As a gospel singer, Sohyang knows how to commit your interest for the vocal journey she takes you along. The composition carries specific purpose and the audience is meant to engage their emotion in the ride. Over the years, Sohyang has performed many fantastic covers of some classics in English. This performance is by no means an exception, although a great example of Sohyang's vocal and musical expertise. If you do start your collection of "songs you don't like but persuaded to enjoy by the artist", you may find many candidates from Sohyang based on her amazing talent. As for Sohyang's range, some would debate how high or low her voice can go, but it really is not the point, isn't it? Otherwise, we all can go listening to the dolphin squealing for fun :-) but we listen to people sing instead. Enjoyed your reaction and some accurate observation such as Sohyang's vocal control, precision and dynamic. Sohyang is my favorite singer if you can't already tell. Cheers and wish you some cooling breeze in your area soon.
Hi Yukuo. Yes, my wife can throw as much at me as I do at her. Keeps life fun. It definitely sounds like we're on the same page when it comes to SoHyang. For me, it's so fun to stumble across great artists like her. That's what really motivates me to keep reading the comments since so many of you recommend these artists. Thanks so much for the listen. I appreciate it.
Your reactions are amongst the best on the web. I noticed that you hadn't released a reaction for Angelina Jordan's 22 June 2022 release of "Suspicious Minds". Angelina is accompanied on piano by Rob Christie, 2x Grammy winner and Studio Director for Republic Records. What an amazing vote of confidence for her arrangement. So here's a 16 year old wonder that has superceded all of her other masterpieces with this performance. If you haven't already reacted to this, would you ask your wife to sit in with you? I understand if she doesn't want to be on camera, but this song is so beautiful that I hoped to see its impact on both of you.
Wonderful talent, very impressive. I loved it, along with your reaction. During your reaction you repeatedly indicated how this performance changed your mind about a song you previously were not crazy about. Well, as I have indicated previously, do yourself a favor and experience the pure talent of Eva Cassidy singing Over the Rainbow. You have never heard that song presented through her voice and guitar. The absolute best.
Hey Bob, if we don't see you for a while, we'll know your wife saw this video.🤣 Suggestion: get a small window or portable AC unit for your recording studio area. First time for me hearing this woman sing. Really great voice. Yeah I can see Mariah similarities. Interesting arrangement too.
That's too funny. I'm glad to report that I'm alive and well and the marriage is strong! Although I got some resistance today when I told her to cook dinner and vacuum the floors. Kidding. We actually have a lot of fun giving each other hard times about things. Glad you enjoyed the song. I'll have to react to more of hers. Just starting on my "Christmas in July" songs that I'll be reacting to over the this month. I'll try to do 5-7 or so during July. Still doing other reactions as well. Hope all is well on your side. Appreciate the concern. LOL
I love her. So much talent in the East like SoHyang, Diana Ankudinova, Daneliya Tuleshova, Morissette Amon, Katrina Velarde, Dimash...could go on and on. We don't get exposed as much in the West as corporations control everything but we live in a new era and we stop using push technology as much. Old media pushes what they want on the people....the great thing about RUclips (the internet in general) is the ability to pull what you want and not sit around and get something pushed at you...they try, but if you want to find out what's out there you can certainly accomplish this today (before we get censored further). Perhaps try Russian teen sensation Diana Ankudinova's dark, mesmerizing, cover of Wicked Game. Her powerful, beautiful lower register is something special. She also has this very dark, creepy (in the best possible sense) intense cover of Elvis Pressley's I Can't Help Falling in Love
Hi Han. I'm doing my best to expose people to as many new artists as possible. I just did a reaction to Diana and it should be posted in about 6 hours. I hope you enjoy it. That's for the info and the recommendations. I appreciate the listen.
👉 Kim Sohyang (called Sohyang) * 1978 in Gwangju, South Korea. She is self-taught and a real all-rounder. Sohyang comes from poor divorced parents. As a teenager, she converted to Christianity and planned to become a cartoonist and artist. Instead, she joined a band and married drummer Kim Hee-jun. She started singing late and has no formal vocal training, but since has had some lessons from Seth Riggs (American voice coach). Shortly after the wedding she had to have an operation and was told she could not have children. She was then 21 years old. She decided to devote her life to singing for God and the comfort and joy of people. She is also a fantasy novelist, gives singing lessons at the Music House Academy in her home town and is a guest speaker at a university. She made her singing debut in 1996. She only became known in 2012 through her participation in the second season of the Korean singing competition I am A Singer. Sohyang became the first Korean female artist to sing the American national anthem at an NBA game. After the huge success in 2017 in the "King of Mask Singer" (Korea), Sohyang’s appearances became less and less. She was struggling with severe pneumonia, which came back eight times and almost took her voice away. Sohyang, hailed as "Korean Mariah Carey" for her outstanding vocal skills, shared how obsessed she was. She didn't want to damage her reputation, didn't allow herself to make any mistakes. So when she was stripped of sheen, all she could do was repent and reflect on her Christianity. She realized that the most important thing as a singer was to comfort people about not being perfect. She rejects contract offers from major music agencies for reasons of belief (Sony Music in the USA). She says, "... I'm perfectly fine sharing my music on RUclips, which can do to tens of millions of people around the world without feeling stuck. Maybe that's why I was born around this time." Sohyang's vocal type is a lyric soprano, specifically a Full-Lyric Soprano. Her vocal range spans from D3 to A6 (supported range from G # 3 to E6), a total of 3 octaves, 3 notes, and a semitone. She is known for her emotive and powerful vocals, with characteristics being a homogeneous, rounded, and bright instrument of remarkable beauty and meticulous control. Even if she is not the most famous singer in the world but she is one of the best. For me, Sohyang is the Belting Queen!!! This woman is fire!!!
I don't know if I am doing something that will destroy for the artists I want you to react to, but I 'll do it anyway just to remind you of them . When Paul Simon got the Polar Music Prize back in 2012 The Swedish sister duo First Aid Kit performed "America" in front of Mr Paul Simon. You can find the performance on you tube (Live at Polar Music Prize) Though, If you don't want to listen to more Simon & Garfunkel I would suggest First Aid Kit "My Silver Lining" official video after you have reacted to "Wolf" that you said you would look into.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind Oh, Sorry sometimes there are too many calling for attention so I missed this one.. I don't know if it is to late but.. "Wolf" (Sweden 2012) and I hope you like it!
This song was meant to be sung this way, with raw emotions and passion pouring out of your soul. When I first saw this video, my jaw dropped to the floor. She's a truly gifted singer with a voice from above. Anyway, 'You Raise Me Up' is another boring song that she completely rewrote and turned into a masterpiece. That song is corny and boring and I just couldn't stand it until I heard her version. You'll be shocked by what SoHayng can do with a song.

Wow! That took me a while to get through! Thank you for all of that. I'm going to be reacting to some Christmas songs for my "Christmas in July" segments. I'll make "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" on of them. Thanks for the recommendations!

Hi Bob, SoHyang has a great voice and is a very good singer. But I don't like this version of the song. It's too loud and "screams" too much for me. Tastes are so different. Have a nice time and Greetinmgs from Germany
Heavy metal and punk rock can have screaming, but this has none. There is belting, which is a completely different thing. Perhaps you don't like high belting -its high because Sohayng's voice is naturally high. You could say "I don't like high belting" which would be fair enough, likes are subjective but calling this screaming is rather insulting to the artist.
Hey Olaf. I get it. I wasn't over the top for Mariah for that very reason. For some reason though, she just came off as so much more sincere to me. I appreciated her voice more. Hoping to react to more of hers in the near future. Maybe I'll unearth one that you may enjoy a bit more. Hope you're doing great!!! Always appreciate your comments.
Sohyang is a gospel (black church style) and contemporary christian music (CCM) singer. You will often see dominant vocals from her. Also her performances on the TV show Immortal Songs are pretty over the top since it's a friendly singing competition among professional singers.
Sorry if this was a big long. I had a lot that I wanted to say because she was so amazing to see, especially for the first time. I really appreciate the listen. Thanks!

Beauty soul voice and performer and lady
Hello. From what everyone is telling me about her, I have to agree with you.
soooo lovely
soooo charming
soooo soft voice
Sohyang~~~!!!!^^♡
She probably is one of the best female singers of the planet. Check out more stuff of her.
Great reaction it was 😊
Hi Elena. I'll definitely be reacting to more of her songs. Thanks for the kind words!
She is a gift from God to all of us. Plain and simple .
Hey Robert. From what everyone is telling me, she's an amazing person with an amazing soul. So nice to hear!!!
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind
Yes sir!
Sohyang's voice seems to purify our minds. Welcome!!
Yes! WOW!
Hi Janette. Thanks for yet another listen!!!
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind I love listening to your reactions. I sent an email about another Angelina song. I know you have a long list to listen to so I will wait patiently for that one. And I understand about needing AC. My MS doesn't like it but I have to like it; that way my MS doesn't kick in.
She arranges all of her own songs, and she is the master behind the orchestra also. There is a video of one of her songs that shows her back stage during a practice session where she is talking to the violin section and telling them how she wants them to come in. It’s all her. She is a master vocalist and arranger. She has he own music academy also. No matter the name of the song, it will not be what you think. It will be 10 times better.
My fav Korean singer of all time. ^^
Welcome to the world of SoHyang~!!!
She is CCM/GOSPEL SINGER of South KOREA and cancer survivor. .
She is one of the greatest vocalist in the world.But She wasn't known as well as popular because She sing for GOD and Comfort people who has hardtime Not for fame or money. ..In her youth, she turned down all offers from mega agencies for her beliefs...and now she is 44years old. .She has so many legendary live performances .
She always sings with sincerity whenever and wherever. So it comforts those who listen to her song...That's why I love her...And her singing skills are the best, not to mention...
This performance is just tip of iceberg.. .
Thanks for your reaction of Queen Sohyang ♥
It sounds like she's an amazing soul. Such a wonderful story. Thanks!
Sohyang does her own arrangements. Please react to Sohyang singing the jazz classic Misty (Begin Again version), I Have Nothing, I Will Always Love You (Begin Again outdoor version), Arirang Alone, Mona Lisa, If I Aint Got You, You Raise Me Up, and what she describes as her most challenging performance: Everyone. Also her own song: Stay
To me So Hyang is a vocal master/monster. She may be the best singer on earth. Thanks for the reaction!
Thanks for keeping the reactions. We know RUclips can be very harsh with The copyright. There are very welcome for the followers of Our Queen So. Thanks from Perú
Thank you so much for reacting to SoHyang! Her range is just over 4 octaves and the soul she puts in and she never cheats, give her all ! Her story is also inspiring this little Gospel sing is in it for us and God ! Turned down the 3 Biggest recording companies in the world( Sony about 3 years ago)also reject all Asian companies.) she has about 30-40 masterpieces but all her Performance are Great- do not neglect her songs sung in Korean even without subtitles, you will discover you will get all the emotions of the song reguardless! Heard many of the Greats , I think she may be the best!?
Hey Tom. I've actually been reacting to more and more songs in foreign languages. I've really enjoyed it. I'll definitely be doing more reactions on her songs. Thanks for the listen.
She writes her own arrangements so your statement about the orchestra and choir "following her lead" was not far from the truth. Your comparison to Whitney and Mariah were also very spot on. You should check out her cover of 'I Have Nothing' from Immortal Songs and 'I Will Always Love You' from Begin Again: Korea, both are very impressive.
Absolutely I agree with you. She is just amazing and incredible. Thank you so much for great comments. Have a nice day.
Kim So Hyang (stage name: Sohyang) is a South Korean singer. She's up there with Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey, and Celine Dion, according to David Foster, who worked with all of them, plus other big names in the music industry, such as Aretha Franklin, Barbra Streisand, and Michael Jackson. In fact, many vocal coaches and critics call her the Queen, and Dimash the King.
Here are several links for a bunch of excellent performances by Kim So Hyang (Sohyang). Many are from competitions where she pulls out all the stops and goes into vocal beast mode. The last 5 are more restrained. You can alternate between the styles, just to experience the contrasts and see her range of abilities.

BTW, Whitney's former manager saw the DMC Festival video of Sohyang singing "I Have Nothing", and contacted Oprah Winfrey, who in turn, contacted David Foster. They were all amazed. He invited her to sing on his tour in Asia. She did 8 shows in 4 days in Tokyo. Foster co-wrote that song. He arranged and produced it for Whitney for her album, and her performance in "The Bodyguard".
Welcome to Sohyang's world. Good pronunciation. She has published 13 novels so far I believe. She is also a cancer survivor and quite an inspiration.
Funny you say she reminds you of Mariah Carey, the media dubbed her the Korean Mariah Carey. Us fans though we call Sohyang herself as there is no one else quite like her. Yes she has been compared to both Whitney and Celine. She has covered some of their songs.
I would suggest to start with:
"Arirang Alone" from immortal Songs 2
"I Have Nothing" DMC festival
"Lean on me" Immortal Songs 2
"You Raise Me Up" Immortal songs 2
" I Will Always Love You" from Begin Again Korea.
Hi Jo. Her runs definitely remind me of Mariah. She's really an amazing talent. So glad I finally found her!! Thanks for the recommendations...and for the listen.
As far as I know, Sohyang has 3 fantasy novels and a treatise on the book of Revelation in print.
@@ToddSauve I don't know where I got that number from but that is how many I thought she had written. 🤔 I will have to look it up.
@@joandsarah77 Maybe you misunderstood the total number of books.
In terms of the number of novel works, three novels are correct.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind you might like lean on me...michael bolton was present and she won that show performance
Oh, this was gentle as to her range. It is insane also. I have heard her sing live up to an A6, and she is said to have a range up to a D7. In the sound DREAM at the DMC festival, she goes up to a mixed D6 at the end and it’s live. Her live shows are like a studio recording. She does not make mistakes.
Correction: At the DMC Festival, she sustains D6 in head voice. The one you're referring to is from the year before where she hit a mixed C#6 in a run and D6 in headvoice.
So you get me Steve! AC or divorce. Her choice. Kidding. I'm really looking forward to hearing more from her. Really an amazing voice and from what I hear, an amazing person as well.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind Sohyang's range extends from D3 to Eb7, That is four octaves and a semitone. She never sings in the 7th octave because it is useless to do so. That is just a squeak so why bother? But her 5th and 6th octave voice is the best in the world. Period. So no, her range is not limited. You'll see when you listen to enough of her performances which are about 99% LIVE!
Woah .. loved your reaction & ♥️ SoHyang! I live in FL so no AC would be grounds for divorce, lol (jk)! SoHyang is a 44 yr old Christian Gospel singer w/ no social media, who’s turned down huge offers for years to stay true to her faith mission. Btw she and her team do her arrangements, but her fans will come soon to fill you in! THX’s great video & hope 2CU ♥️
No AC would be grounds for divorce in Texas, but Texas is a strange place anyway! Ha, ha! (My apologies to all the Texans out there!)
@@ToddSauve HaHa 💯
@@Tica..77 I am quoting that from John Wayne in "The Searchers" if you have ever seen that old but GREAT Western from 1956! His younger companion literally boots a Plains Indian woman from his bed and she rolls down an incline. It was a pretty funny episode of the movie, if you recall it. 😎👌
Thank you so much for great reaction and analysis. She always touches my heart and makes me cry. Her goal to sing is comforting peoples who are going through difficult times. She looks like an angel. Please more react to Sohyang. Have a nice day.
Hi. No worries. I loved her and will definitely be reacting to more of hers. Thanks for the listen.
New subscribers~!!!! 👍Thank you for the very impressive and great reaction. Her vocal range is limitless and ᆢ she is the best live diva ᆢNon-renewable pure energy that does not use magic equipment
Hi. Thanks so much for checking out my reaction. It was wonderful to get introduced to such an amazing talent.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind 🤑Oh, and admission to her concert is $7~$8 It is a happiness of $8, and her birthday is even more special these days, as she still plays on a small stage in the park, overcame cancer, and started a second life. She also performed at the Cancer Center on her birthday this time, and her office is still called the small office next to the church. pure and clean angel.
OMG 😲 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
리엑션 감사합니다^^
She propelled this amazing song to new hights. Her arrangement respects the original message of the song and enriches it. On the original song your friend is the "Bridge" on her interpretation God is the "Bridge". This particular performance is a seminar for passionate singing. This phenomenal lady, always delivers, by feeling her songs first.
Hi Konstantinos. The more I hear about her, I more I admire and respect her.
Best version of BOTW ever. The arrangement is a masterpiece and the vocals simply stunning. Thank you for the reaction and a warm welcome to the amazing world of Sohyang. Check out her rendition of You Raise Me Up next from Immortal Songs 2 (2018).
Hi. I've got a list of songs that have been recommended. Both of those are on my list!! I'll definitely be reacting to more from her. Thanks.
Sohyang has the best version of the classic *Lean On Me* as well
I knew this version would impress you. It's the best version i've ever heard. Bob, your comments on your wife makes me recall Henny Youngman's famous joke line " Take my wife...please".
LOL. Very true! I always liked Rodney Dangerfield when he would talk about his wife and not getting any respect. I understand that now! LOL
I love this video~dust analysis♡Thank you for the wonderful reaction ㆍI have also made a suggestion~♡ I want to see more blessed CCM singer . She was first known through a media contest program, and she is an independent singer, not a label singer who rejected the offer of a large entertainment company. away from money and fame. Currently, she is listed for the first time in Asia with the highest level of "STAR" on the World Vocal Evaluation Site. Mariah, Whitney, Michael Jackson, Franklin, etc. mentioned in the same grade are the same level grade . You can view your profile, photos, and technical analysis. He is a masterclass vocalist recognized by experts. She said she wants to use her amazing powers where healing and comfort are needed for the sake of God. Sohyang on the channel~Have a nice day~
The next song is break time.. With an angelic voice and a lyrical song.

Hello. Thank you for all the recommendations. I also appreciate the listen. Thanks!
I personally recommend you to go with reaction of Sohyang's another heart melting performance, "Arirang Alone". You will be blown away for sure.
Here is the link: ruclips.net/video/zFyndK9VOCk/видео.html
Your wife will forget the aircondition running if she watches this with you by the stunning performance.🤩😊😋
LOL. I Soo. No, she's pretty firm on preferring fresh air over air conditioning. I've tried for years to get her to change her mind...no luck! Ha. I've bookmarked that video which officially puts it on the list. Thanks so much for the listen.
Hold on to your seat. Her range while knock you out. This is the best song to start with because it shows the power and resonance of her full chest voice belting with 14 G5s. That last G5 was mixed. This was my first introduction to her. There are many live videos of her. She does not however have any of her own social media but has a good fan base that posts her work.
We all wonder if Sohyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an angel come down from Heaven. 😇 We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. Her voice is, as one person described it, like liquid gold. Perfection in clarity and pitch, and she doesn’t fade in the upper octaves, which is startling when you hear her hit those 5th and 6th octave notes with such _POWER_ it actually gives everyone goose bumps-and makes us bald guys’ hair stand on end! As she says, her voice “is from God.” She does all the musical arrangements herself, with the input of her in-law family and musical assistants, teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks five languages: Korean, English, French, Vietnamese and Chinese, as well as reading Greek!
Let me catch my breath. OK.
She is a cancer survivor from uterine cancer at the age of 20, just after getting married, and states very plainly that God saved her life due to the prayers of her church. But this left her without the ability to have children so she decided to dedicate her life to being a Contemporary Christian Gospel singer and has refused recording contracts from the biggest corporations in the world. She only wants to sing for charities, churches and while doing missionary work, to strengthen those suffering through difficult times. David Foster, Josh Groban, Michael Bolton and others have all eagerly worked with her when they were in Asia.
She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her, she has suffered from it on so many occasions. Imagine how she must feel with this coronavirus floating around everywhere!
She just turned 44 on April 5, 2022, though in Korean culture she would be 45 because you are deemed to be one year old when you are born. She was about 37 when she sang this version of “Arirang Alone”, their unofficial national anthem based on a 600 year old folk song expressing their desire to reunify north and south: vimeo.com/308253527
After being sick with pneumonia eight times from 2016 through to 2020, and considering giving up singing altogether, she decided to enter a televised singing contest called “King of the Masked Singers” in 2017 and won six consecutive times, which has catapulted her into international attention from the performances being posted on RUclips.
Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on RUclips and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted Sohyang and went to Japan in order to have her perform eight concerts with him at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018. For those who don't know, David Foster was Whitney Houston's producer for some of her songs, wrote "I Have Nothing", her most iconic song, and is probably the most famous and influential music producer in the world. He places Sohyang right beside Whitney and the rest of the top tier divas.
Here is the interview where Sohyang related the events: ruclips.net/video/EqeE_1nP-Kk/видео.html (Be sure to turn on English subtitles.)
Here is the version of “I Have Nothing” Oprah, David Foster, Whitney's former manager and the rest watched on RUclips: ruclips.net/video/T4UyIMkdy4M/видео.html
She preceded it with this blockbuster: vimeo.com/312061203
She could be an international Super Star if she wanted to be but has decided that it would ruin her spiritually, quoting Proverbs 14:12 “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.”
In a South Korean television interview Sohyang conceded that she struggled with her desire for fame for a number of years, going into the basement in her home numerous times and closing the door so she could complain vehemently to God that He was holding her back from becoming famous due to her health problems and other unforeseeable events. Then she later saw a Korean TV drama where the talented daughter of a very successful businessman was positive she would take over when her father retired. But he left the management of the company to a woman she hated, so she had a fit and lay kicking and screaming on the floor. Sohyang says she saw herself in that young woman and then understood that God was keeping her from developing self-destructive character by withholding international celebrity status from her. ruclips.net/video/rl-jX9kBsEs/видео.html (Again, turn on English subtitles.)
So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no social media presence whatsoever.
What can one say about such a person? She is a literal Wonder Woman! And we need about a billion more just like her!
On Oct. 5, 2020, it was revealed that Sohyang turned down _yet another_ contract offer, this time from Sony Music US. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200921000995
“Debuting in [the] US was my utmost goal for the past 20 years. But when I got a call from the US agency, I politely rejected, as I realized that what I wanted most was not becoming famous,” she said.
“I think singers are very susceptible to arrogance, especially when they hear the screaming from crowds on stage. It can make you feel like as if you’ve become God.”
“And I’m perfectly okay with sharing my music via RUclips, which can reach tens of millions of people all over the world without making me feel stuck up. Maybe that’s why I was born in this era.”
Sohyang is just the most amazing singer, Christian and human being. She is beautiful both inside and out, and so humble and genuine, with a stage charisma, facial expressions and smile that is off the charts.
In Korean dictionaries 소향--Sohyang--has several meanings.
• First is a type of Korean traditional music.
• Second is to burn incense on a burner.
• Third is to go toward.
But these meanings are rarely used today. Sohyang is also the name of a heroine in a Korean traditional novel. Yet for the definitive answer Sohyang has stated in an interview that her name means "enjoy the light." The name was given to her by her grandmother.

And finally “Will You Be There”: ruclips.net/video/nBdSpexUxik/видео.html
Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: ruclips.net/video/N2u_pmoWxj8/видео.html Her English is perfect when she sings and almost perfect when she is doing interviews.
OK, I’ll stop gushing now.
Well, one more gush. In an interview with a Turkish music producer Sohyang's assistants revealed (a bit to her chagrin, as she is a self-effacing person) that she can hit Eb7 and D7 in practise. However, she never goes above the 6th octave in performances. Since she starts at D3 that is more than a 4 octave range ... so how about them apples???! Here it is: ruclips.net/video/VnPAkryrygQ/видео.html I know, bananas isn’t it?
Oh, I just remembered, she is also a published fantasy novelist and has a theological treatise on the Book of Revelation in print. In addition, she is a very good stage actress, which she proved by playing Julie Andrews’ part in the South Korean production of “The Sound of Music.” Moreover, she sang the “Moana” part in the Korean version of the Disney film, does the musical vocals for many South Korean television dramas, and is a talented artist and cartoonist. She taught herself English by watching Disney's "The Little Mermaid" "about one hundred times" when she was just a kid, speaks English with a _perfect_ North American accent and has an outgoing and bubbly personality.
She can also play the piano and guitar. Is there anything this genius level woman can’t do? Ironically, Sohyang stated in another interview that both she and her in-law family were surprised to discover that she could sing so excellently!
Though she is less than 5' 4" and only about 100 pounds, Sohyang simply transcends the thresholds of music and takes you there with her. She becomes the song when she sings it, and then re-emerges when she is done. An experience like no other. I don’t know what else to say. I’ve spent _entire days_ listening to her, and shed more than a few tears of joy along the way.
I really must also compliment the choir, orchestra and audio/video production people Sohyang works with. They are all top notch from what I can see and hear, and that is important to note as these are _essential_ elements of any great musical production. The Korean people are easily as talented as anyone else.
As you can see, I am a shameless fan. 😉
♥️ Sohyang is my Queen of female Singers!! Love her voice!! ♥️
Hi Britta. Thanks so much for the listen! She really does have a beautiful voice.
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind 🙂👍
Thank you for the reaction to Sohyang ! another challenge? "You Raise Me Up " ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html or "Lean On Me" ruclips.net/video/GvsgCllcNPE/видео.html
Hello ~~
I'm a big fan of SoHyang :D
Thank you for letting her know ^.^*
I've only listened to one of her songs....instant fan!
Thank you for a great reaction! There are more of these from her as well as great soft ballads as well
Great reaction, Bob 👍👍 Take care!
Thanks! Always appreciate your feedback. Have a great weekend.
소향의 노래는 감동과 힐링이 있습니다❤❤❤
Yes, they definitely are!!! Thanks for checking out my video. I appreciate it.
Sohyang is always in sync with the orchestra because she is the one that does the arrangement. I am new to your channel because of Sohyang but I am aware that you are familiar with Dimash & Sohyang is often referred to as his queen, when Dimash is the king when it comes to vocals.
Hi Linzi. That's a good way to describe them! I really appreciate you taking the time to check out my reactions. Have a wonderful day.
Thanks for another nice reaction - this time to SoHyang's cover of this Simon & Garfunkel classic. If you really are trying to like this song, highly recommend Sissel's cover which was done at a Norwegian fund raiser for Ukraine.
Amazing emotionalism .
Hi Dave. She's a wonderful singer!! I'm happy she was recommended to me.
New sub here bec u will react to more Sohyang performances! Looking forward!
Bless you!!! Sorry for taking so long in viewing your content!! Thanks man🎉🎉🎉
sohyang angelic♡^^
Yes!! For sure.
You definitely want to check out *Lean On Me* and *You Raise Me Up* by Sohyang too -- legendary songs that have become monotonous over the years.
Given what you said about your wife and that you are still kept after the summer from last year, I have to assume that she is a good sport and can handle your sense of humor without trouble, but I do understand how the summer heat can sap one's spirit. Listening to Sohyang's "Bridge Over Troubled Water" was a wise decision. It can definitely refresh your depressed spirit and recharge your energy. It's true Sohyang's voice doesn't lower the room temperature, but it can help you forget your physical irritations by refocusing your mind on her vocal magic.
I agree with your feeling on the song in its original form. The message in the lyrics is wonderful and the melody soothing but it doesn't offer any dynamic to keep the listener's attention if not emotionally engaged. In that case, it becomes an effective lullaby. However, Sohyang's rendition carries no such concern. As a gospel singer, Sohyang knows how to commit your interest for the vocal journey she takes you along. The composition carries specific purpose and the audience is meant to engage their emotion in the ride.
Over the years, Sohyang has performed many fantastic covers of some classics in English. This performance is by no means an exception, although a great example of Sohyang's vocal and musical expertise. If you do start your collection of "songs you don't like but persuaded to enjoy by the artist", you may find many candidates from Sohyang based on her amazing talent.
As for Sohyang's range, some would debate how high or low her voice can go, but it really is not the point, isn't it? Otherwise, we all can go listening to the dolphin squealing for fun :-) but we listen to people sing instead.
Enjoyed your reaction and some accurate observation such as Sohyang's vocal control, precision and dynamic. Sohyang is my favorite singer if you can't already tell. Cheers and wish you some cooling breeze in your area soon.
Hi Yukuo. Yes, my wife can throw as much at me as I do at her. Keeps life fun. It definitely sounds like we're on the same page when it comes to SoHyang. For me, it's so fun to stumble across great artists like her. That's what really motivates me to keep reading the comments since so many of you recommend these artists. Thanks so much for the listen. I appreciate it.
😊😊😊😊
Hi Sy. Thanks for the listen!!
💖💖💖
Thank you so much for the listen!!!
Her song now❤
Your reactions are amongst the best on the web. I noticed that you hadn't released a reaction for Angelina Jordan's 22 June 2022 release of "Suspicious Minds". Angelina is accompanied on piano by Rob Christie, 2x Grammy winner and Studio Director for Republic Records. What an amazing vote of confidence for her arrangement. So here's a 16 year old wonder that has superceded all of her other masterpieces with this performance.
If you haven't already reacted to this, would you ask your wife to sit in with you? I understand if she doesn't want to be on camera, but this song is so beautiful that I hoped to see its impact on both of you.
Hi. I just released that a number of days ago. Check it out. Hope you enjoy it.
소향은 못 하는게 없을정도로 재능이 뛰어납니다,
만화도 기가막히게 잘 그리고 소설 오케스트라 ccm 키타연주등등 어마무시한 음역대 이런 가수는 몃백년 기도 안 나올겁니다
I agree. It's not too often that we have the pleasure of hearing such and incredible voice. Thanks so much for the listen. I really appreciate it.
Wonderful talent, very impressive. I loved it, along with your reaction. During your reaction you repeatedly indicated how this performance changed your mind about a song you previously were not crazy about. Well, as I have indicated previously, do yourself a favor and experience the pure talent of Eva Cassidy singing Over the Rainbow. You have never heard that song presented through her voice and guitar. The absolute best.
Hey Billy. I was wondering if you would come back to me with that!! Too funny. Ok....maybe. LOL
Please do it. You will not regret it. Thanks.
This is the link to her song... ruclips.net/video/2rd8VktT8xY/видео.html
sohyang is a big whitney & mariah fan! :)
Hey Bob, if we don't see you for a while, we'll know your wife saw this video.🤣
Suggestion: get a small window or portable AC unit for your recording studio area.
First time for me hearing this woman sing. Really great voice. Yeah I can see Mariah similarities. Interesting arrangement too.
That's too funny. I'm glad to report that I'm alive and well and the marriage is strong! Although I got some resistance today when I told her to cook dinner and vacuum the floors. Kidding. We actually have a lot of fun giving each other hard times about things. Glad you enjoyed the song. I'll have to react to more of hers. Just starting on my "Christmas in July" songs that I'll be reacting to over the this month. I'll try to do 5-7 or so during July. Still doing other reactions as well. Hope all is well on your side. Appreciate the concern. LOL
Currently she is more active and did more concerts and tv shows.
That's good. It sounds like she has such a positive impact on so many people!
I love her. So much talent in the East like SoHyang, Diana Ankudinova, Daneliya Tuleshova, Morissette Amon, Katrina Velarde, Dimash...could go on and on. We don't get exposed as much in the West as corporations control everything but we live in a new era and we stop using push technology as much. Old media pushes what they want on the people....the great thing about RUclips (the internet in general) is the ability to pull what you want and not sit around and get something pushed at you...they try, but if you want to find out what's out there you can certainly accomplish this today (before we get censored further).
Perhaps try Russian teen sensation Diana Ankudinova's dark, mesmerizing, cover of Wicked Game. Her powerful, beautiful lower register is something special. She also has this very dark, creepy (in the best possible sense) intense cover of Elvis Pressley's I Can't Help Falling in Love
Hi Han. I'm doing my best to expose people to as many new artists as possible. I just did a reaction to Diana and it should be posted in about 6 hours. I hope you enjoy it. That's for the info and the recommendations. I appreciate the listen.
She does her own arrangements.
Why does that not surprise me. You can easily see how incredibly talented she is. Thank you so much for checking out my video.
👉 Kim Sohyang (called Sohyang) * 1978 in Gwangju, South Korea. She is self-taught and a real all-rounder.
Sohyang comes from poor divorced parents. As a teenager, she converted to Christianity and planned to become a cartoonist and artist. Instead, she joined a band and married drummer Kim Hee-jun. She started singing late and has no formal vocal training, but since has had some lessons from Seth Riggs (American voice coach).
Shortly after the wedding she had to have an operation and was told she could not have children. She was then 21 years old.
She decided to devote her life to singing for God and the comfort and joy of people. She is also a fantasy novelist, gives singing lessons at the Music House Academy in her home town and is a guest speaker at a university.
She made her singing debut in 1996. She only became known in 2012 through her participation in the second season of the Korean singing competition I am A Singer.
Sohyang became the first Korean female artist to sing the American national anthem at an NBA game.
After the huge success in 2017 in the "King of Mask Singer" (Korea), Sohyang’s appearances became less and less. She was struggling with severe pneumonia, which came back eight times and almost took her voice away.
Sohyang, hailed as "Korean Mariah Carey" for her outstanding vocal skills, shared how obsessed she was. She didn't want to damage her reputation, didn't allow herself to make any mistakes. So when she was stripped of sheen, all she could do was repent and reflect on her Christianity. She realized that the most important thing as a singer was to comfort people about not being perfect.
She rejects contract offers from major music agencies for reasons of belief (Sony Music in the USA). She says, "... I'm perfectly fine sharing my music on RUclips, which can do to tens of millions of people around the world without feeling stuck. Maybe that's why I was born around this time."
Sohyang's vocal type is a lyric soprano, specifically a Full-Lyric Soprano. Her vocal range spans from D3 to A6 (supported range from G # 3 to E6), a total of 3 octaves, 3 notes, and a semitone. She is known for her emotive and powerful vocals, with characteristics being a homogeneous, rounded, and bright instrument of remarkable beauty and meticulous control.
Even if she is not the most famous singer in the world but she is one of the best. For me, Sohyang is the Belting Queen!!! This woman is fire!!!
I don't know if I am doing something that will destroy for the artists I want you to react to, but I 'll do it anyway just to remind you of them .
When Paul Simon got the Polar Music Prize back in 2012 The Swedish sister duo First Aid Kit performed "America" in front of Mr Paul Simon. You can find the performance on you tube (Live at Polar Music Prize) Though, If you don't want to listen to more Simon & Garfunkel I would suggest First Aid Kit "My Silver Lining" official video after you have reacted to "Wolf" that you said you would look into.
Hi. Others have recommended First Aid Kit. On wolf, do you prefer the Official video or the live version?
@@ModernLifeForThe70sMind Oh, Sorry sometimes there are too many calling for attention so I missed this one.. I don't know if it is to late but.. "Wolf" (Sweden 2012) and I hope you like it!

This song was meant to be sung this way, with raw emotions and passion pouring out of your soul. When I first saw this video, my jaw dropped to the floor. She's a truly gifted singer with a voice from above. Anyway, 'You Raise Me Up' is another boring song that she completely rewrote and turned into a masterpiece. That song is corny and boring and I just couldn't stand it until I heard her version. You'll be shocked by what SoHayng can do with a song.
그녀도 데뷔초 휘트니!머라이어 캐리의 영향을 받았고 그녀들에게 많은 영감을 받았다는 인터뷰도 많습니다!나이를 먹고 자신만의 길을 가는걸 볼수있는 요즘 노래도 많아요!돈!인기를 위해서 노래하는 가수가 아니여서 교회나 종교활동쪽을 더선호 하는거 같네요!소향의 다른 노래들도 리뷰해주세요!
Morissette whistle note registers is 1760 megahertz in D7, that is absolutely insane
Wow!
Here is a Korean female singer of very high note. Her name is So Hyang [One of the World Best 6 Vocalists on Critic of Music, World Vocal Assessment Site.(Vocal Rating : STAR). D3-C#6-A6-Eb7. Soul, R&B, Jazz, CCM, Beautiful Voice, Resonance, Delivery, Delicate, Ethereal, Stunning, Eyes-watering, Out of This World. She overcome cancer and pneumonia. Lirico Soprano.

2. You raise me up
ruclips.net/video/te_L9ofhUt8/видео.html
(She struggled against pneumonia and phlegm which is fatal to a singer, and was told not to sing by the doctor. But she turned a deaf ear to this advice and by a miracle suceeded in this stage in the middle of an IV. But after this performance, she dread this disease(only singers can know), became lethargic and was rarely seen in public for about 2 years. One day she saw and was inspired by the words of Roosevelt, "There is nothing to fear but fear itself." Then she returned.)

-> This song is a dialogue between lovers. Whenever So Hyang sings this song, she is about to cry. So I guess, in my opinion, this song can be a dialogue between a human and God. I heard she was upset that she had pneumonia and lost her voice. While she struggled against pneumonia, she sang this song.

2)SH: Mixed voice['Chest voice' + Head voice in a balanced way(e.g.50:50)]
-> harder, thicker, stronger, sharper and more powerful tone(쨍한 소리) can deliver effectively and emotionally. Every word is punching your soul. :)
2.Middle range
1)Ordinary singers: Chest voice
2)SH: Mixed voice[Chest voice + 'Head voice' in a balanced way(e.g.50:50)]
-> softer, thinner, lighter, purer, clearer and more transparent tone.

Wow! That took me a while to get through! Thank you for all of that. I'm going to be reacting to some Christmas songs for my "Christmas in July" segments. I'll make "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas" on of them. Thanks for the recommendations!
Thanks for the reaction!! In my opinion, she is the best of women and Dimash the best of men...
Please more reactions from her, she deserves so much!!

Hi Bob, SoHyang has a great voice and is a very good singer. But I don't like this version of the song. It's too loud and "screams" too much for me. Tastes are so different.
Have a nice time and

Heavy metal and punk rock can have screaming, but this has none. There is belting, which is a completely different thing. Perhaps you don't like high belting -its high because Sohayng's voice is naturally high. You could say "I don't like high belting" which would be fair enough, likes are subjective but calling this screaming is rather insulting to the artist.
@@joandsarah77 Thanks for the hint. English is not my first language. If "belting" is the better term, than "belting".
Hey Olaf. I get it. I wasn't over the top for Mariah for that very reason. For some reason though, she just came off as so much more sincere to me. I appreciated her voice more. Hoping to react to more of hers in the near future. Maybe I'll unearth one that you may enjoy a bit more. Hope you're doing great!!! Always appreciate your comments.
Sohyang is a gospel (black church style) and contemporary christian music (CCM) singer. You will often see dominant vocals from her. Also her performances on the TV show Immortal Songs are pretty over the top since it's a friendly singing competition among professional singers.
말이 너무 길어요 쫌 요약점
Sorry if this was a big long. I had a lot that I wanted to say because she was so amazing to see, especially for the first time. I really appreciate the listen. Thanks!

Thanks for the listen!
