    You are one of the few people to notice her shifting vocal patterns. I have edited music videos for forty years and Jessie J is a master at making space and/or delaying words to the last nano second in a lyric line. And it draws you in. The Christopher Walken of Music.

  • @terjoe6643

    Jessie is my favourite singer of all time, ive seen her live 7 times and she never ceases to amaze me with her vocal abilities - i’ve followed her music for about 12 years and i still never tire of hearing her sing. She seems like an all round wonderful human being too💜

    The bit with the pianist cracked me up 😂 . It fits the lyrics so well. I bet the entire thing was preplanned and rehearsed, not impromptu. JJ killed me as soon as she sang the first line. I 💖 this performance.

  • @WelcomeToJ
    @WelcomeToJ 5 лет назад +56

    That was *THE BEST* version of the song I have ever heard. She took me on a musical journey - I actually followed the story of the lyrics - and LIVED them! - for the first time!! It hit me. This performance musically, dynamically, vocally, moved me. BRAVO Jessie J :D
    Also, Tara, for some reason you commenting on the minor to major switch at the end made me smile so much. It's your knowledge and what you catch and share that blows me away. I love it and I remembered why I'm subscribed to your channel.

    I love her! I love her as an artist and a person! She's one of those crazy talented vocalists, who is down to earth and approachable! She has no ego. I saw her bring my fav Morissette on stage to sing with her when she performed in the Philippines a few years ago. Watching her interact with her was humbing. There's another clip where a fan just comes undone in her presence. She looked her straight in the eye and said "Its ok Its ok Im just like you I just sing!" I just loved that! More power and success to her. She has written some fantastic music. Still underrated IMHO!

    @tgraf66 5 лет назад +5

    I very much enjoy your reactions and your commentary, particularly on established artists like Jessie, because it's very helpful to see what it is they're doing right so I can try to emulate that. Thank you for doing this one. One of her competitors in this round, Wang Feng, made a very nice little speech about Jessie and her performance at the judging section of this episode. He said, "Jessie shows us what 'great' is. We don't have a clear concept of 'great'. If a child now asks me what is 'great', I will ask him to listen to Jessie J. Her breath, her musicality, and her understanding of music perfectly explain what is 'great'. Look how carefully she deals with a forty-year-old song; you'll find that she is completely integrated with the music. So the best thing that Jessie has taught us is that we always need to learn."

    Aren't dreams just goals that have yet to be achieved?
    "What Are Dreams?"
    Dreams are wishes that never die
    Dreams are things that make you cry
    Dreams are often lost or found
    Dreams can lift you off the ground
    Dreams are fantasy, dreams can be real
    Dreams are the plans you hope to fill
    Dreams can take up all your time
    Dreams can make a poet rhyme
    Dreams can make a blind man see
    And I have dreams of you with me.

    Tara - though you most likely will never see this, I have to say I usually don't enjoy these "Reaction" videos. However I recently saw a few of yours and begrudgingly watched them. I love your honesty, your passion, and the way you explain your comments so that untrained listeners learn how and why some of the best vocalists are exactly that: the best. And when you self-deprecatingly did your own "Idol" audition...you are a star in your own right. Professionals NEED professionals. Major props for keeping your feet planted firmly on the ground.

    Omg. I could totally watch all videos in this channel for 24 hours non-stop, especially those reacting on the singers videos. Dang! 🥰❤️
