I think this song astounded everyone. She sings it a lot as it is one of her mother's favourites. I'm so glad that even though she is from small town Canada, she has kept her Moroccan heritage from where she was born. Thanks to her parents for that, since they moved to Canada with a 1 yr old and kept that culture alive at home.

At her concert in late 2022, she had techincal problems when they got to this song on the setlist. She told her keyboardist, she could go ahead anyway. So she sang it to the small audience, without a microphone or in-ear monitors, just the keyboard accompaniment. It was lovely, but her singing has improved so much in the year and a half since. Really nice performamce here. Backstage, Adam Lambert wondered where does she breath, its so packed. And she sang ALL the notes. Nice compliment from an amazing singer who guested on this night.

Faouzia's version of the Sting and Cheb Mami song is about 40 seconds shorter than the original. She has chosen to leave some of the verses out, maybe to make it her "own" or there was a time limit, per song, in this competition? Born in Morocco but moved to Canada with her parents when she was very young, uses the Arabic singing technique of maqam to voice those amazing melodies.
@bengmelea86462 ай бұрын
The song uses the word "gazelle (غزال or ghzalti)" in Arabic as a term of endearment for the woman he dreams and yearns for.

What's interesting is that she has covered all 3 of these songs (that she has performed on Singer 2024) before - you'll find several versions of each of them on KZbin - but this one I think she has the most practice with...although she took it up a notch. I'm wondering if she'll keep covering songs going forward in the competition or if she'll start singing her original music (if that's even allowed?). If not, she still has plenty of covers that she's very familiar with...but not too many will be more routine for her than this one because it's a fan favorite.

Artists have sung some of their own songs in past seasons and I assume this remains the case. I believe the shows producers probably limit how many of an artist's own songs can be sung because it could be unfair for the more famous, more experienced contestants with long careers (especially the Chinese competitors) to sing a lot of their own well-known hits. I also tend to believe that the show's producers are interested in seeing how versatile contestants are and so they are encouraged or even required to perform cover songs in various genres and styles. As an example, Russian pop singer Polina Gagarina competed in the 2019 season of Singer. I know she performed at least three of her own songs. Jessie J also performed at least 3 of her own songs during the 2018 season.

Great reaction man, Thanks for uploading it fast; her interpretation of the song is different than the original and I love it she made it her own, You can just close ur eyes and enjoy the voice and the Arabic runs, for the Arabic part here's a translation to help u : It's been a long time هذه مدة طويلة That I've been looking for my dear (literally deer haha) وأنا نحوس على غزالتي but for it to be more accurate in English we can say : For a long time, I've been looking for my beloved...
