The emotional sound that was on the very end of the word "blows", right before those last 5 words of the song, no one else has said anything about!! That sound at the end of that one word was like a person beautifully expressing their EXHAUSTION of working so hard, all of their lives, and finally getting to say, "I AM HERE!!! THIS IS WHAT I LOVE TO DO SO LISTEN TO ME!!!!!" And yes, I used the word "exhaustion" because if you listen to that sound, it is the exact sound of someone being so frustrated with the world for NOT listening before!! Perhaps I'm overstating or over analyzing, but knowing her story of going to audition after audition, for years, and being turned away is the reason for that sound!! She's felt it, she's lived it and she pushed it out with that extraordinary sound!!!

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for the great comment, I agree completely!

[@riccardocoletta2398]

She didn't adjusted her voice to the song. She adjusted the song to her voice, that is even better. It's called "interpretation"... Awesome

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Well you got me there!

[@Neil-z7n]

All previous performances of My Way pale before Sydnie’s exalted performance here. She redefines this song, and with her extraordinary vocal dynamics and intense emotional input she cannot help but captivate all who watch and listen.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Great way to put it, thanks for your comment!

[@stevencowdell5201]

Absolutely fabulous.

[@craigcampos]

Her voice is on another level. The raw emotion she brings out. The level of her voice and clarity. She is the goat

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for the great comment Craig!

[@reddragonready]

Isn't that just the most satisfying final note ...Ever? As satisying as that final note by Pavarotti with Nessum Dorma...just a perfect end to a song!

[@brunopaquette5920]

100%! Absolutely! Most satisfying! Brilliant! Amazing! That final note was out of this world! The rest was already beautiful and out of this world, but that final note she sent us out of this galaxy and somewhere in the universe!

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

I'll say!

[@riccardocoletta2398]

She always auditioned for musical theatre role parts. Auditioning for musical theatre isn't only a matter of being a good singer; you need to have the exact face, tallness and presecece and face and eyes and nose the director is looking for. It's like being a great actor that is not the right one for a specific role. There are 10-15 important musical theatre production in London West End during an year (she got some parts in smaller producion in England and Germany, for a total of around 30 important roles and THOUSANDS of performers (not only singers, but singers AND actors, because that is required). It's perfectly understandable that she didn't found the right moment with the right role for you. I think that if she wanted only to sign a contract to sing and record a song, it was already done. People should check her interviews on TV shows like "On this morning" to understand how much difficult is musical theatre industry We're all very happy that she found a way to shine and maybe get a shot on her dream. She deserves it

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for explaining more about the theater industry, I can only imagine how tough and competitive it must be.

[@GaryDouglas-lj5bz]

I agree that this was WAY more impressive than the audition. Not only that, but it's also more impressive than Sinatra's (or Anka's) originals.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Impressive indeed Gary!

[@jamesmorris8938]

I think she has the most powerful voice since Whitney.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Oh wow, big claim James!

[@carlos103able]

True though

[@thomasgriffith2953]

Sydnie is an absolute phenomenon! Her voice, Her personality ... wow, just WOW!!! I LOVE HER! 💓🤗💓

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

She's great!

[@imtherapycat]

Loved your reaction, George. Powerful is my only description of this performance.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed!

[@johnwakefield9378]

Great reaction. It’s her best by far I agree. Shows the power of her voice and softness too, just an incredible voice.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for the support John!

[@davidforster1628]

Louie is a great judge. He described it exactly how everybody was feeling

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

I hear that, thanks for watching!

[@robinabbott5653]

Check out Sydnie’s version of Starlight Express released yesterday. It’s on You tube. Pick the one with lyrics. Buckle up and enjoy. She nailed it.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Will do, stay tuned!

[@ianjones2187]

Best and most accurate reaction for sydnies version of this classic

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks Ian, glad you enjoyed!

[@riccardocoletta2398]

She was a receptionins at a gym. She left the work after winning

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Ah ok, got it.

[@carlos103able]

She did mention the gym if you listen, one rebel

[@GaryDouglas-lj5bz]

Your commentary expressed my feelings about that performance perfectly. It was glorious!

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Glad you enjoyed Gary!

[@josephtellier836]

Shes amazing, Thank you

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for watching Joseph!

[@stevencowdell5201]

She actually smashed other versions of.this song.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

So many versions!

[@JohnRoberts-pt8cu]

The other people who Sydnie auditioned for saying no was the best thing that could have happened to Sydnie. She would have still been looking for work in the theatre and on cruise ships if she had not joined the BGT and won.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

That's true, everything happens for a reason!

[@lawrenceb5236]

Hi again George. This is my favorite performance from her because it is her arrangement.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Hi Lawrence, it was amazing. Will check the other performances too though.

[@denaspohn5207]

She was a receptionist at a gym.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

And now look at her!

[@staffanhesselback9653]

Just amazing❤

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for tuning in!

[@craigcampos]

She is the best singer I have ever heard!! Hands down. Better than even Whitney. Just saying. Could you imagine her singing a Whitney song or Celine

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Oh wow, she definitely has the potential to do many covers from the bets singers!

[@nowthatsinteresting313]

I keep coming back to videos of her singing this song. I feel exactly the same way. She is the best I've ever heard. Throw Whitney Houston, Shirley Bassey, Liza Minelli and Celine Dion together, but then make them the perfect version of all of them together that's her! She really is that good.

[@johnclibbens6803]

She did say the name of the gym (1Rebel) but you missed it…

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Oh man, leave it to me haha

[@jillwarner8684]

Lol. When she talked about her jib and making shakes, I then heard one “Red Bull” ! Had no idea she was saying the name if the gym! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@alisonstevens8342]

Sodnie is the first female singer to win BGT

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Oh wow, would not have guessed that!

[@pdill51]

Stratospheric performance !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

I’ll say!

[@davidbradshaw2293]

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Thanks for your support!

[@haroldmachroli7038]

Before I of course always associated this song with Frank Sinatra and to tell you the truth never liked it because I really never liked Sinatra's personality. But from now on I will only want to listen to Sydnie sing this. She totally made this song her own and was letting the world know this is what I am going through. And you believe her. I was emoting with her as she was singing it, totally mesemerized till the end.

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Great way to put it Harold!

[@haroldmachroli7038]

@@GeorgeTheCloud Thank you so much for responding. It says a lot about you. I've given many responses to many different reactions and you are the first one who has ever responded back. I've subscribed and liked now. In the future if I can help support you I will. I am a 73 year old on a fixed income and really live fro SS check to SS check.

[@dcvids81]

There is only 1 audition for all acts not 6! After the end of the auditions the judges hand pick the best of the acts who got a yes. There are 40 places available minus the golden buzzers. The golden buzzers do not skip any auditions they just skip the judges deliberation for the semis thats all

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

AH ok, thanks for the info! I thought there was a longer process to get to the finals but I might be thinking of The Voice.

[@crazycatlady7621]

This is my first time hearing her sing. She is really good. I am impressed. I give her a 9.7 out of 10. Very nice. I have a new artist for you to react to. Please react to Brooks and Dunn singing Believe. It is a true story written by Ronnie Dunn(the one singing the song). It is the story of his childhood mentor. Incredible song and beautiful voice. Ronnie Dunn is phenomenal. You will give it the highest marks as well. Here's the link to Brooks and Dunn singing Believe... kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmbdXp2gjN50gLMsi=nRcVEF478w0KYrz6 I know you will love it. 😊 Hey George!! Hope you are doing well. Are you enjoying your summer? Be safe and careful. Peace ✌️ ☮️

[@GeorgeTheCloud]

Hi there! Thanks for the info and suggestion, I will take a look at some point. I'm having a good summer, although here in Colombia the seasons don't change as much as in the US. Hope you're taking care!
