FIRST TIME HEARING Raye - Oscar Winning Tears

[@MimiLingo]

I love her mixture of glam, elegance and swagger. She seems to merge styles that should conflict but they just don’t. She makes it work seamlessly

[@rosalieelliottofficial]

Very well said :) I agree

[@Calers-gu1ib]

@@rosalieelliottofficial I notice you don't have a dutch list. Grace VanderWaal has been professionally singing since she was 12. 12 years old kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5vEoqGPlKqbatk 19 years old kzbin.info/www/bejne/nnmxn32nlqeVitE

[@AmberJays]

@@rosalieelliottofficial - You should check out her Brit Awards 2024 performance, it was amazing lol.

[@TJWiggers]

This is the best description! 100% The versatility is off the chart!

[@andrewp5760]

The royal Albert hall is almost considered the national concert hall of the UK so for her to be invited to perform would have been such an honour and career highlight for her as a British artist. Especially when you know her story, it’s like after all that pain and struggle it was worth it to have reached this point. That’s why she’s so excited/overwhelmed

[@dee2251]

There was such a void left by Amy, but Raye has now filled that void. What a huge phenomenon she is and she’s a brilliant songwriter too. She’s written songs for Beyoncé and John Legend amongst others. We are very proud of her. Go Raye and conquer the rest world with your talent. Knock ‘em dead girl 👏👏👏🇬🇧

[@tiktaktijs]

Yass she gives me the real great Amy vibes that I missed soo much. Love her so much

[@Coastpsych_fi99]

So talented ❤

[@MRMAGICBEAR]

Very true

[@shonamcnally5855]

Her Tiny Desk Concert is another must!

[@realbworld]

Her whole album is superb.

[@catcaa9027]

That’s what I said when I first heard her. I was like what the hell where have I been,💯

[@cp.6997]

Raye's voice is so similar to Amy's one BUT without the joy the smile and the glow !!! Raye is really tremendous, beautiful and shinning artist with an opened heart and beautiful soul...

[@Charyl.w.an.A]

I LOVE RAYE SO MUCH 😭😭😭 I CANNOT GET ENOUGH OF HER. * many of her songs are painful to listen to because of what she has went through. And what we go through as women. 😭😭😭 (I cannot get through Ice Cream Man, without bawling.)

[@cinemaipswich4636]

Great stagecraft, but just a girl next door. Fantastic voice. Beautiful. A wonder to behold.

[@SeattletoWellesley]

I only learned about Raye this week and I have listened to whole album 5x now. Best new artist in years. Her vocal ability, song writing ability and instrumentation are mesmerizing and unbelievable.

[@hairsensationbyfiona4098]

Everything you said … I’m obsessed!!!!❤❤

[@cathyba5113]

Wow, I love her voice, the song, the orchestra, and your brillant reaction. BRAVO

[@moononastick8628]

She’s incredible. You can probably see why we were a bit baffled this side of the pond for her to be completely passed over at the Grammys.

[@GraciesMom]

I agree--but we’re weird here. We pass over true talent to give accolades to those that make a buck. Ie. Taylor Swift. Every once in awhile we get it right like with Brandi Carlisle singing The Joke at the Grammys. She’s quite a different singer but rocked the house with her individuality. That’s what Raye is--an individual artist that no one sounds like. She deserves all the awards. 💜

[@hithisisfake2623]

Been here since the very start. Obsessed with her lyricism, the talent in general and HER VOICE!!! I am so glad she is being recognised for all of these factors. Shes also humble and kind. Id love to go see her❤

[@Rlee571]

That’s is just such an extraordinary performance. Electrifying!

[@jwfpeters85]

Its my best find of last year awsome voice awsome presetation its just freaking fukcing nice!

[@harkema8090]

This combi, RAH with this great orchestra makes her appearance magic..appear in the RAH as much as you can, Raye..your quality is here optimal! ( thank you audience, also your enthousiasm makes this happening terrific )❤

[@kingman985]

Raye has the chance too be a legend, because unbelievably she's really just a songwriter first who can sing second!

[@petersingleton5221]

She is incredible, I must say I enjoyed seeing you Rosalie reacting to it as first time listener. For me it was similar, the glam, the orchestra, her clothes, her excitement her down to earthness contrasted with her sensational voice, phrasing, operatic, jazz, blues influenced rap singing. It had me mesmerized too. That one long note really sent me into orbit! I just feel she has such a lot of talent and joy inside her and she is liberated now and recognized for herself and and what she brings which is amazing. I hope it stays that way!

[@xejanfan]

Yes!!!! Omg FINALLY!!! I can’t wait for you to see Ice Cream Man. (I recommend the official video written & directed by Raye herself). Appreciate you as always Rosalie!! ❤️✌🏻🫶🏻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@blymimedia]

Ice Cream Man is a real important one to do. It will hit you.

[@alexguajardovera]

she is amazing , i am glad that in UK she is being recognized for her talent♥ saludos desde argentina

[@nicholasmartin297]

My first reaction was “WOW!”. My second was “Where did SHE come from?”. She is a world class talent. Up there with Adele, Alanis Morrisette, Tina Turner, Kate Bush, Joni Mitchell etc. She just hasn’t been around as long as they have. Her blending of musical styles is original and refreshing. She is soul, through and through.

[@Lightmane]

7:28-7:48 WOW! Her entire performance was stunning, and beautiful to watch, in more ways than one, but WOW!

[@willeymiller4760]

I love this performance and I agree totally she does pay homage to the greats like Amy and so many others her tone and those runs are just immaculate very tasty I like to listen to this while just relaxing at the end of the day thanks for this ride it was perfect today as always your ride or die forever Eyyyyy Ooooo

[@venicawood3894]

She's actually paying homage to the greats like, Nina Simone, Ella Fitzgerald etc.

[@waynemaddams3151]

Beautiful voice, British and proud 🇬🇧

[@Kodiak660]

She is amazing! WOW! ❤

[@WoodlandT]

What an absolute force of nature this woman is! So happy for her well deserved success 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@harryparmley2978]

Please do a reaction to her brits performance. That performance will go down in history!

[@RamseyHaddadWZ]

This is her first solo album. But, yes, she' s been around a while. I first noticed her 7 years ago in Jax Jones' song "You Don't Know Me". She is the one who stands out on that song. Who cares about Jax.

[@seanhansford9642]

I do not want to say another Amy or similar! Raye is another fantastic voice grown from her hard work and another plus for the UK market. All said, wow isn't she great and the lyrics are exceptional! Definitely top of my list of artists to listen too.

[@Hundhammer]

❤❤❤ Discovered her just yesterday, she's absolutely incredible... Peace and love from Bavaria!

[@markryder8488]

OMFG. The next big star from London. Amazing

[@thomastimmann6200]

There's one thing I always missed about Raye's performance: that's your commentary on it.

[@RedCnMn]

Just speechless, best commentary there is honestly

[@stephenboddy7489]

We’re living in the Raye era 🙌

[@andrefelipebelussosoares7601]

I love your face in the high note like you were trying to help her holding your breath hahaha I love your reaction!!!

[@Nathan-kk5ql]

I'm so happy you reacted to this :D

[@geralynjohnson9019]

Here music is like going on an adventure because she's telling you a story in her songs.

[@lindathurmond7963]

Raye is all that and a bag of chips🎉🎉🎉

[@phoenix-xu9xj]

Next James Bond theme tune writer for sure.

[@danibell1840]

the same reaction as Rosalie when I saw this for the first time, a Great Dame

[@Jn-jh9pd]

Please react to her brits performance ❤

[@Sara-fv4mt]

To me its interesting to see british singers get inspiration by black american jazz, gospel, blues, and r&b. In amercia its just "black music" but its interesting to see people internationally find inspiration and influence by it and celebrate it.

[@adamskeer2675]

The beauty spot is legit, btw. It's not a Cindy Crawford copy, lol. But you're right, this UK artist is probably the best right now and deservedly so. Well done RAYE.

[@leonardolucasrs]

OMG YES! I always think about Amy when I listen to her 😭

[@CatCmdr]

Brava!!!! ❤❤❤❤👏👏✌🏼💜

[@Iskra-q3y]

Listen Shhhh

[@evelynstarks6805]

I would love to see you react to Escapism from the same concert, it's absolutely incredible from the vocals to the orchestral arrangement it's a phenomenal performance

[@glengalli1288]

Her and Ren together. ❤

[@thebeggarking9909]

Great reaction Rosalie. Check ourt Raye's new one Genesis. One of the tracks of the year for me. Lots packed into it for you to delve into and talk about.

[@christopheraguilar911]

She looks like Raye

[@talltalan]

Ironic how this First Time HEARING seems primarily focused on how she looks or whom she resembles, ignoring the bravery that Raye showed during this particular concert.

[@banhynn]

15 year old Emma Kok Sings Voila - Andre Rieu Maastricht (2023), totally inspiring

[@richardgiles5608]

Where did she come from?, spending over 7 years languishing at Polydor on a 4 album deal where they repeatedly refused to release any of her music. She had to split from them and release her debut album independently. Just shows the terrible state of the music industry today that they can't see the talent that is literally sitting in front of them. The death of independent record labels has caused untold damage to the music industry, and the big labels spoon feed commercial crap which does well on tiktok rather than invest in artists.

[@hugogenesis1611]

Hello Rosalie, I always follow your videos and your analyzes of various acclaimed songs around the world. I would like to see you reacting to the song from Rhapsody of fire - Queen of the dark horizons. This song will simply take you on an adventure with various rhythms, keys and shifts!

[@boxicuk1620]

👌

[@acidmuncher]

Im being completely honest, you kinda look like Raye, so pretty 😭💕💕x

[@rosalieelliottofficial]

Thank you very much :)

[@franckthibault2521]

I love your reactions, but no offense, I LOVE RAYE more! I got to see her this summer and she is just so amazing! Keep up the amazing work Rosalie!!!!

[@bartonbagnes4605]

I think the lyrics stole the show. Not that she was bad in any way. But this message deserves to be the focus anyways.

[@MimiLingo]

She wrote it.

Greeting to you, chamante Demoiselle xx New subscriber here :) Today, I would LOVE to suggest a brand new song entitled "Dissociation", by the French Canadian Death Metal/Classical project named "Disorientation". This is a lyric video* Thank you for your attention and have a nice day ;)

[@markwalker4142]

I never really liked AW and alway felt she was a mumbling wreck and very overrated . She was no Sarah Vaughn or Ella . Raye has a different talent altogether . She has power , clarity and range . You know what’s she’s singing and it’s isn’t ambiguous. I alway felt AW sang seriously hindered by her habits . A breath of fresh air that is Raye . I’m a big jazz fan and I have very very high standards on vocalists .

[@smoly37]

I'm sorry, but I hear you say nothing that we can't hear ourselves. I'm confused. I have ears. I can hear the orchestra. I can hear the way she can adapt her voice until it sounds like that of Amy Whinehouse. What is your goal? With this line of presentation?

[@rosalieelliottofficial]

Not sure if you watched the full video or not, but later on I speak about the lyrics and the meaning thereof. In this case the lyrics don't give as much content (in my opinion) to dive deeper into on a psychological basis. Fairly straight forward meaning here. Sometimes I dive deeper into philosophies and psychology (perhaps I could have spoken on achievements, the psychology behind having such a large audience, the impact it has on the artist and their identity, human behavior when it comes to fans, toxic relationships, gas lighting etc, pathological liars etc (see lyrics), but in this case I kept it simple. Feel free to browse around my videos for a variety of presentations and conversations :-)

[@jedislap8726]

Sooooo you don't understand what reaction videos are? You could have just kept your ignorance to yourself and then the rest of us wouldn't have been aware of your stupidity.
