FIRST TIME REACTING TO Lucy Thomas - Hallelujah

[@LucyThomasMusic]

Thank you so much for taking the time to react to my video. I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks so much for your support, Lucy x

[@AdamStraughan]

Thank you for your wonderful comment! I wish you every success in your singing career!

[@stevedahlberg8680]

I have long been a Leonard Cohen fan and I love the way KD Lang performed this a couple different times, but since I have discovered your version several months ago, it has pretty much become my favorite version. Just incredible.

[@Mark-xh8md]

This was better than the original. And I don't say that often. Absolutely phenomenal!

[@mikaelowe8430]

hi Lucy i just wanna say you have a very beautifull and wonderfull singing voice and you are a very beautifull woman aswell and you have very beautifull smile and blue eyes aswell and your version of hallelujah was so beautifull🙂😉😍🥰🤩😘❤🌹

[@Eddie-cq9ll]

Lucy sings with such clarity….wonderful. I love his reaction.

[@SJR_Media_Group]

*_Thank you for your reaction to Lucy Thomas...._* Lucy has been singing since she was young, have heard as young as 7. Her first video was age 9. She is currently 18, has released 4 albums, and many singles. She is from the United Kingdom and signed a record contract right after The Voice - Kids UK at age 14. Lucy truly is one of a kind. Your reaction is typical of others hearing Lucy Thomas first time. I heard 'Hallelujah' the first time also. Lucy's technical singing skills are better then many pros with decades of experience. She was only 16 or 17 when she recorded this. When I first heard it, I almost fell out of my chair. I have over a decade of singing and acting experience. I had to play song over and over to make sure my ears and eyes weren't tricking me. They weren't - Lucy is the real deal. Lucy doesn't copy songs, she improves them. Her rendition of 'Hallelujah' is best I have ever heard, and I have heard dozens before. I have a standing bet no one will beat it. Even if they copied her, they can never do it as well. The song has many millions of view for a good reason - it is talent on a whole new level. Her technical singing skills are amazing; perfect breath control, multi-octave vocal range, exact note placement, her vibrato is so tight it doesn't vary more than a 1/4 note up or down. Her physical delivery skills help listeners connect at a very emotional level. It is as Lucy is standing in front of you singing a solo just for you. She is beyond amazing. I took your suggestion and listened to Alexandra Bruke's rendition of "Hallelujah". In my professional opinion, Alexandra is good, but she is not great. I wouldn't spend time listening to her again. Lucy on the other hand is great. I have listened to her version many dozens of times. Every time I do, I discover another gold nugget I missed before. Even if Alexandra copied Lucy she would fall short. *_Thanks again for your reaction..._*

[@AdamStraughan]

And thank you for your thoughts! Each to their own! Thanks for checking out my video

[@SJR_Media_Group]

@@AdamStraughan Thanks for reply. Each person experiences music differently than others. It's the 'Subjective' aspect of rating music. Using 'Objective' criteria is different because it looks at the nuts and bolts of performance. Technically, Alexandra is very proficient. On a subjective level, her style didn't click with me. She is obviously a very good singer, otherwise she wouldn't be at the level she is today. I have to be careful, I don't want to be perceived as 'talking down' another artist. Last year I ranked Angelina and Jackie below Lucy. It really comes down to subjective criteria... you either like them or you don't. I felt both were over rated and in a different level than Lucy. True story: I have been writing very detailed reactions of Lucy's music for almost 2 years. Lucy knows me on a personal level. I have run out of superlatives to use describing total experience watch Lucy perform. She lives in Wigan, just outside Manchester. I told her there was something in the drinking water that helps Brits become so good. Liverpool (Beatles) just west of her and Sheffield (Def Leppard) just to the east of her. She got the best of both influences. Thanks again, I subscribed, liked, and turned on notifications.

[@AdamStraughan]

@@SJR_Media_Group thank so much for your support! Being a Brit myself, I know Wigan and Manchester and have been! That’s great that you have that connection with her

[@SJR_Media_Group]

@@AdamStraughan Both Lucy and younger sister Martha are prim and proper Brits. No scandals, no tats, no piercings, no pink hair, no revealing clothing. Fame hasn't gone to their head. Lucy still reads every comment on every post. After reading, she will put a heart next to each one. Social media alone must be huge job. Last year I was trying to get Lucy an audience with the Queen Mother. I knew her time was short. The process is long and formal. Queen Mother passed away before Lucy could perform for her. I told Lucy after the fact. I have always had great respect for the British. I also respected your Queen. I think tradition is important. The Monarch is still relevant. It is also is the bedrock of stability. She reined for a very long time. The opposite in Parliament. You've had 3 PM's back to back in short order. Let's hope King Charles learned something from his mum the Queen.

[@PersonalStash420]

@@SJR_Media_Group When is Martha going to start doing her own covers? She should be about 15 now? I think her voice is special in the way that I just like. Emily Linge is my favorite young artist right now with Lucy and Martha close second. Lucy is a great singer, isn't she? I cry when I hear this song.

[@GRANTTRIBECreates]

Do you realize how lucky we all are in witnessing a young singing prodigy, developing into a generational talent right before our eyes! Lucy Thomas is a true spirit of music, The likes of her come around very rarely Thank you Adam!!👍

Lucy has one of the best voices out there at the moment. She is fabulous. She also duets with her sister Martha ... they are stunnig when they sing together...great reaction

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

[@BlackCloud82]

The thing about Lucy is her vibrato. At the end of each verse she trails off with that beautiful, even, symmetrical, perfectly undulating vibrato. Absolutely amazing. As of today (2.9.23) this video has had 29+ million views.

[@stever7732]

Glad you got round to listening to Lucy. A semi finalist on The Voice Kids in 2018 age 14. Did that cover at 16. Will be 19 in a couple of weeks. Her voice has matured and strengthened even more since that cover. Many of the duets she has done with her younger sister Martha, who is five years younger, are magical. The killer duet from these two is ‘The Prayer’, done with Lucy at 18 and Martha just before her 13th birthday.

[@bradgannon4412]

Thank you Adam, loved your reaction to this amazing young artist. Please react to more of Lucy’s many performances, she was 16 here, and you have to believe that she is even better now at 18. I am so jealous that you Brits have what I believe will be a superstar, also the duets performed with her younger sister are incredible. Thanks again, love listening to reactors like yourself that can describe Lucy’s technical ability. 😊👏❤️🇦🇺

[@AdamStraughan]

Thank you!

[@martinfranklin8922]

Come on guys please put this on the radio I❤ Lucy

[@ronneybower3224]

I actually love watching the reactions from these commenters. They are truly dumfounded as I was the first time I heard Lucy. The pureness of her words is truly impressive. I have always liked music, but never listened to much, because I could not understand the words. With Lucy it is especially special, because I can understand her every word. I pray she never looses this gift God has bestowed upon her. May God bless her and her family.

[@randysimon7363]

Lucy was 16 when she recorded this. She’s nearly 19 now and she’s only gotten better and better. The duet from last year with her 5-year-younger sister of The Prayer is astonishing. As someone else said here, the version of Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas from a few months ago worth checking out. It is a vocal master class.

[@thomasbelloli326]

I "Stumbled" upon Lucy on KZbin, back when I was going through some serious health challenges....mere words cannot adequately describe the elevation of spirit, and healing virtues that her music has procured for my soul !! The whole world 🌎 needs to be invaded by her "God Breathed" dispensation of....can't find the words ! (Vocal Magnificence) is as close as I can get. THANK YOU LUCY, atl.

[@steveinman1157]

Best version that I’ve ever heard! Adam, highly recommend you listen to The Prayer sang by Lucy and her younger sister!

This young lady is already masterclass and beyond...She is fantastic. Thank you for sharing her with us.

[@rebfh]

Thanks for reacting to her! I've also enjoyed her performances of La Vie en Rose, Somewhere, At Last, and Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas---a song I've never even liked that much, but she transforms it. She's also done a beautiful duet of The Prayer with her younger sister Martha.

Great reaction to a stunning vocalist. Her control and clarity is always amazing. The prayer sung with her sister Martha is a masterpiece. Lucy's voice in any is world class,I love 'all by myself', but you really will not be disappointed with any of her songs.

[@MichaelReiter]

Lucy has a beautiful voice. The duets with her little sister Martha are also worth watching. I like her rendition of Hallelujah, although K.D. Lang's version at the Sidney Opera House is still my favorite.

[@jimivison5837]

Thank you, Adam, for your reaction to Lucy's Hallelujah. I am late to the table again I see, Wilbur, George, Steven, Anthony. Adam, Lucy now has 29 million views of this song in 2 years which says a lot to her popularity. I have seen numerous reactions to this song as well and (I think) most were blown away with her rendition. Like the 4 gentlemen I mentioned earlier, I have been following Lucy for a couple years now since discovering her. Her delivery of each song is so clear, clean and pristine - enunciation of each word and the perfection of her high and low notes are just incredible. Sorry for 'gushing' but I have yet to find an artist I like better. Happy birthday to Lucy - today.

Simply BRILLIANT 🎉🎉🎉

[@petercaulf]

Great review of my favourite artist. I'm a long, long time supporter hers and there's one song that gets overlooked by reactors. I'd love to hear your reaction to it. Her version of Fix You has taken what I feel to be quite a dreary depressing song into an anthem of hope. She and producer Chris Broom (an award-winning composer btw) have done the same to it as they did with Hallelujah, in that it's truly her own version with such a crazy great climax. Lucy has now been confirmed as the star of a new musical, Rosie, due to hit the West End next year. (2024).

[@JaapFilius]

This is so good.... Thank you for your reaction. There are so many extremely talented young singers out there. Here we have Lucy Thomas from GB and you have also reacted on Angelina Jordan from Norway. And I will also mention Amira Willighagen from the Netherlands (she lives in South Africa) and Jadyn Rylee from Canada. Four female singers and each of them has a genre in which they are real outstanding. At the moment they are all about 17-19 years of age and I wonder how it is possible to be that good at that age. It is awesome to be able to discover these artists from everywhere thanks to internet.

[@adamknight7041]

Congratulations on discovering the greatest singer in the world today and already amongst the best ever and what's more she only just turned 19 and was only 16 when she recorded this. There's so much more where this came from!

Great reaction and explanation to Lucy's fabulous cover , thank you

[@anthonyl.6879]

You mentioned Alexandra Burke few times in your reaction. You are completely right. In the description of the Lucy video, she wrote : Leonard Cohen , Alexandra Burke cover. She did a cover of the performance from Alexandra, adding or modifying few things in the song to do it her own performance.🥰

[@AdamStraughan]

That she does! I noticed that after haha

[@ChrisScott0]

A good analysis of Lucy’s ‘Hallelujah’ cover, so was waiting for more from you reviewing other Lucy’s songs. I imagine you’d be interested in ‘Fix You’, ‘Run’, ‘Writing's On The Wall’, ‘Broken Dreams’ and ‘The Prayer’ amongst many others. Time to revisit Lucy! 🙂

Okay..., over the many years I've heard the many Hallelujah's sung by the many singers, (& wannabe's.). Of course, Mr. Cohen's (full version) is exceptional! You mentioned Alexandra Burke's version, which was..., good...,(?). K.D. Lang's not so good, too loud, too hard & stressful. Now, this wonderful version by Lucy Thomas..., is just tooo good to be true. Gentle passion, precise, controlled, smooth & absolutely stunning...! Now..., how about taking on anything by Mary Fahl... Or; Morgan James / Post Modern Jukebox's take on Aerosmith's, "Dream On"! Be blown away!

Very nice reaction to an “Amazing performance by Lucy Thomas” !

[@johnbattles1002]

I've never liked the song because it totally convolutes and mixes the two separate accounts of King David and the Israelite judge Samson in Scripture, and distorts the actual Hebrew meaning of the word "hallelujah." However, I love and adore Lucy Thomas and her sister Martha for the beautiful, endearing, and kindhearted people & artists they are! She is incredibly talented and versatile. She will be starring sometime next year in the play "Rosie" at London's West End, which she co-wrote & co-produced. You should go see it! Great reaction; please react more to this outstanding young lady!

[@clevewatson9175]

Hi Adam...Thank you for this excellent reaction. This is the first time I've been on your channel. I came here because you were reacting to Lucy. Firstly, I am very impressed with your comments. You are obviously very knowledgeable when analyzing Lucy's performance. I assume you are a professional in the music business. You certainly know your stuff. I have now subscribed to your channel in the hope that you cover more Lucy. That being said, I have been a huge fan of Lucy for over 2 years now. I first discovered her when I clicked on a link of her singing "Somewhere" (There's A Place for Us). I remember how after hearing her sing 5 words I was mesmerized. Her voice was so beautiful, clear and pure like I'd never heard before. I thought after listening to the entire song that she was the best vocalist I'd heard in my entire life. Since then I've listened to all of her songs (over 60...she has 4 albums) and can not find fault in any of them. To me Lucy is as close to perfection as one can get. You will be very impressed as you study more of her covers. She is a phenomenon that occurs once in a generation or two. Many have said that Lucy is the new Barbra Streisand. Welcome to the Lucy Thomas fan club. You are in for a real treat. Looking forward to your next Lucy Thomas reaction.

@@AdamStraughan Well you sure seem very knowledgeable to me. Keep up the good work! You did sing during the reaction so I figured you were in the business, possibly a vocal coach.

@@georgegliszczynski8576 No I'm absolutely not a vocal couch! I always emphasise that for authenticity, but thank you for the kind words!

@@AdamStraughan Hi Adam, I am very disappointed that you only gave Lucy one chance with "Hallellujah" a year ago. She netted you over 42K views and Lucy even thanked you for the react to her video. How many of your other reactions got a thank you from the performers? You raved about Lucy and then completely abandoned her. You are missing out on one of the most promising young vocalist of this generation. Lucy now at age 20 is 5 years older and is destined to become a superstar. Here is her latest first LIVE performance a few weeks ago: "Hallelujah" - Leonard Cohen - Lucy Thomas in Concert from The Stoller Hall, Manchester. She sang this as an encore to end the concert. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnLKi3SBr8-gnqc I sure hope you get back to Lucy soon. It is very disappointing how many reactors continue to overplay and gush over the same handful of new singers that are not anywhere near Lucy's talent or voice. Lucy is a phenomenal vocalist oozing with talent that is destined to take her to the stars. She is probably the best young female vocalist on the planet today. How exciting it is to see her perform live. Here, Lucy demonstrates the power of her stage voice and presence. Lucy delivers every song with emotion, passion and charisma. She is indeed a superstar!! Here is the original song Lucy sang at the finale of her 17 song concert. kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y4i5Y4iupqqrarM

@@georgegliszczynski8576 Hi George, firstly thank you for your continued support on my channel. I’ll admit, Lucy is one of those artists who I should revisit. And I appreciate her commenting on my video! She is one of many artists who have reached out to me afterwards, which I always truly appreciate. That’s not a brag, just letting you know because you asked how many performers do that. And just like you see Lucy as one of the best performers in the world with the most amazing talent than everyone should appreciate - I get exactly the same comments about loads of other artists who people feel exactly the same way about. The beauty of subjectivity. And it’s not about ‘farming for likes/views’ - I started my channel to discover new artists to me from around the world. Lucy being one of them, of course. I’m sure I’ll get back to her in time (along with the many other requests that I get!) But again, I want to thank you for supporting my channel, I really do appreciate it!

[@stephentaft-pn9mf]

So for someone like me, I most appreciate reactors that obviously have some level of expertise in the field they are commentating on; such as you! So yes, I will continue to watch "probably" over and over again, anything that you react to by Lucy Thomas, and/or Her sister! (even though She and Martha have technically have been way over done by any other standard at this point!) So hoping you do more of Her, and Them. But regardless, love your first reaction, even if that ends up being the only one we ever get....as I'll just keep showing It to others.

Thanks so much! Appreciate that!

Lucy Thomas....dear idol of mine.💜 Greetings from Argentina.

[@johncole8837]

Lucy is the best.. now we just need the rest of the word to realize this,

[@DimitrisB-qi3tg]

Hey! Its Dimitris! Thank you for your nice reaction!! Can you please react, to Lucy, unchained melody. Or All bymyself! In this song hallelujah, she is only 16. And has progressed more! Thank you!!

[@Ray-i6p6h]

Really enjoyed your review! Her last version of this song available on KZbin was live. Very beautiful! Magical! Her voice and skill have gotten even better since this video was dropped, if you can believe that. Thank you for sharing!

As Bruce Lee once said 'Be water my friend', meaning when you poor water into a pot, it becomes the pot, poor water into a glass it becomes the glass. When Lucy sings, she is like water, she becomes the song, she sings the song with all her heart and soul, she sings with clarity, smooth control, a beautiful softness, and breath control, she checks all the boxes. So Lucy 'be water my friend'.
