Lucy Thomas & Will Callan - Above the Clouds (from Rosie) - Vocal Coach Reaction & Analysis

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

Rosie is the work of Chris Broom of Cavendish records who signed Lucy at 14, they started working on the musical and Lucy recorded about three songs when the covid shut them down for a couple years, during which Lucy recorded many song appears at her home and then when the lockdown ended they went back to work Broken dreams, Above the Clouds were recorded an the opening date in West London is said to be the fall 2024, there is supposed to be a CD of the songs of ROSIE released next spring. The story line is based on the real life of Rosie Boote an young girl growing up in a covent and setting out her life that she ended up marrying into British Royality, is about the only info being given out !!! hope this helps

[@MariosEngineeringCave]

For me, Lucy is one of the best singers in the world because she not only sings the song, but also lives it. Hardly any other singer can hold a candle to Lucy in this sense. Lucy is the most honest singer in the way she presents her songs to us. I am so happy that I discovered Lucy 4 years ago - probably the most beautiful and fulfilling discovery in recent years. Will Callan fits Lucy's voice perfectly! Btw. - I had exactly the same feeling about her smiling...

[@Tommy-e2y]

Ditto!

[@georgegliszczynski8576]

Hi Juliet... I have to quote you here because it is a great description of Lucy's talent and ability. "Her tone is exceptional, the phrasing, the emotional conveyance and then of course the richness". Nicely expressed. Thank you!

[@rodayl]

You really do a wonderful job with these singers. Thank you!

[@lynneshellyattianeseattian9321]

I was thrilled to see Will and Lucy sing together again, it's been about 4 years. They sound so good together, just love this!

[@teresahaworth2448]

I really enjoyed your reaction. Chris Broom did it again. Lucy was outstanding and Will also did a very good job. Well we're off your yacht and in a beautiful green field under a big tree having a picnic with blue skies with fluffy clouds and a light breeze. Have a great day.

[@bruceobrown534]

Hi ya Juliet - I just love your reaction videos and your analysis and comments!!! I get so much more out of the videos that I have missed when I watch you. Rosie is supposed to open in the West End, London in the Fall of 2024. Thanks for your super support for Lucy!! Stay safe and healthy!

[@andreakammerer1654]

Great reaction of Lucy and Will, Juliet! Every time I can feel the sweetness beteen this lovely and so talented couple. They harmonize so brilliant and it makes me more excited to see this wonderful musical. I also liked the song "The day that I met you" on her "Premiere CD" when both sung together with 14 years. (Also by Chris Broom)

[@downrigger002]

Lucy has a new CD to be out Dec. 8. There are short snippets of some songs that we haven't heard yet. Can't wait to get my copy. Yes it has this song and "Smile" etc. It includes "Pie Jesus" and others.

[@Robbie.Dunbar]

Chris Broom is a brilliant composer. He will be there with Andrew one day. All of his songs are brilliant. And then there is Lucy who is another legend in the making. Those two together are something truly special.

[@richeswebcraft]

That's a big call Robbie, but I suspect you might be proven right 🙂

[@5pmevans]

Robbie if there’s any justice you’ll be right on both counts! I’d appreciate a reply to my recent Instagram post to you

[@christopherseaborn4084]

You are so right Robbie.

[@colinhea]

I have no doubt that Chris Broom will join Lloyd Webber as one of the great songwriters.

[@BlackCloud82]

Juliet, thanks for the very nice reaction, I'm right there with you. You mentioned how Lucy was taking several large jumps, but to my ears she landed them perfectly and beautifully. Her head voice (falsetto?) is very beautiful and I agree there's no need to belt here. Will has a very nice mellow voice and the harmony was done exquisitely. The final resolve at the end was very sweet and typical for Lucy, and hit my mind as a stage show wrap up. Plus we cannot forget Lucy's beautiful vibrato which was very delicately applied this time. Absent vocal gymnastics, this piece allowed Lucy's technique and excellent execution to shine. Definitely "WOW!" worthy.

[@spencerbutterbaugh6104]

I am no expert here but, I keep hearing that head voice and falsetto are the same. So I looked it up and they are not Falsetto is usually sung by a male (tenor). Females can sing falsetto also. Look it up, very interesting.

[@BlackCloud82]

@@spencerbutterbaugh6104 Thanks for the education. But it doesn't alter my point that on the high jumps she lands them perfectly.

[@spencerbutterbaugh6104]

Yes I agree. She is a soprano with classical training. That jump is not out of her range. Flawless just like Floor Jansen. Nice to talk with you fellow Lucy Fan.

[@StephenReynolds-jk7dv]

Thanks Juliet, great reaction. Cannot wait for Rosie to arrive.Lucy is just incredible and Callan did well too.😊😊

[@richardpomerantz2820]

Lucy did a duet with Will Callan when she was 14 and he was 15 or 16 called Can We Have This Dance. They both were great!!

[@edwinbarnett9032]

You are right on about Lucy and Will.What amazes me is how young they are

[@barbaracallister8138]

This was a great reaction to Lucy and Will singing " Above the Clouds" well done Juliet everyone enjoys your musical knowledge and looks forward to all your reactions.

[@BlackCloud82]

Juliet, a couple of added thoughts. When Lucy jumps up to her falsetto and has her beautiful vibrato on top of it, although it's a very light note the vibrato just makes that note pierce me; light but powerful. Also, Will brought back memories of Christopher Plummer singing Edelweiss in "The Sound of Music". Will has a very smooth light tone here. ( just ramblings from a very senior citizen ).

[@estanislaolabuguen9084]

Juliet this is one of Lucy 'Above the Clouds' from Rosie song's. There duet perfectly blend together so beautiful and Will has soft mellow voice harmonies are done exquisitely.

[@downrigger002]

Thank you for the review. Lucy did two other songs with Will. "Can I Have This Dance" and "When I First Met You". Both are wonderful. Rosie is supposed to premier Fall of 2024 last that I saw in the West End...

[@christopherseaborn4084]

Thanks for this excellent reaction and your ongoing support of Lucy. In case no one else has answered your query, a studio cast album of Rosie - The Musical, featuring all of the key songs, will be released around February 2024. This will be followed by the launch of the live show in London in the second half of 2024. My suspicion is that Will Callan will play the male lead but this has not yet been confirmed. Other news about Lucy is that two live concerts are planned early next year, one in Manchester and in one London. This will be the first major public show for Lucy. Privately, she has performed twice in the last two weeks, once in Dallas Texas for a Mr and Mrs Best and on the 14th October, Lucy was the guest entertainer at the 83rd birthday of none other than Sir Cliff Richard (English musical royalty). Finally, Lucy’s 5th album will be released in November. It will be another stunning collection of musical magic by a vocalist of exceptional talent. Look out for that. Lucy Thomas is on her way to superstardom IMHO.

[@5pmevans]

Excellent review as always Juliet. The studios Lucy used for this recording are saying Lucy and Will recorded two duets before he went off to perform in the West End and they are working on three songs with Lucy this week and next!

[@richeswebcraft]

Thanks, that's good to know

[@andreakammerer1654]

Wow..!!! 🤗 then hopefully we will come earlier in this enjoyment to hear a new duet of both...can't await like a child for xmas😃🤗❣

[@YourOnlineSingingCoach]

Sorry for the belated thanks, Pete! I’m just finding this comment! 🤗🎶🙏

[@kennethsorrels8850]

Juliet, another wonderful reaction. I love the passion that you show Lucy when you react to her. I look forward to more of your reactions to Lucy and also Geoff Castellucci!

[@blackbird8516]

Sings like an angel..so beautiful , so pure......evergreen...great for music great for all of us...what a treat.

[@ChrisScott0]

Lucy and Will have done duets before from 4 years back, they are on Lucy’s channel. Similar layout to this ‘Can I Have This Dance’. Also ‘The Day That I Met You’ but no video. Good songs.

[@5pmevans]

The expectation is that there will be a studio album for “Rosie” released in Spring 2024 with the musical itself opening in Autumn 2024. We’re also hoping for a fifth Lucy album as early as November this year!

[@richeswebcraft]

🙂 Thanks Juliet, another great reaction. I don't know why, but I tend to get a bit more emotional when I see your reactions 😂 I guess it's because I'm listening a bit closer to the fine nuances. Yes, when are you doing her complete catalogue!? 😂 I'm looking forward to the next one, whenever it comes. Thanks again.

[@donwinges7464]

I find myself waiting for her beautiful smile at the end of every song.

[@ThePhantom1978]

Fantastic reaction as always. Will is currently playing the lead role of Marius in the London West End production of Les Miserables.

[@BlackCloud82]

Juliet, watch Lucy's eyes. She's looking up at Will (he's very tall) and when she sings about clouds or anything elevated she really looks up. Her face goes right along with the lyrics. One reactor mentioned than some 'sing' and some 'perform'. Not just here but in a lot of her videos she performs partly by where her eyes are looking. And where there's a first person implication she brings her hands to her chest to include herself in the lyrics. She is an all-in-one package.

[@TedAshton-m6l]

Great reaction ❤❤❤

[@michaelgale6829]

How beautiful is this song??? WOW! It’s sung in a way that highlights young love. Lucy is able to mix her pitch so many times n still have plenty of her silky smooth tones at every level. I keep thinking how can she keep getting better??? It’s amazing. Will truly compliment’s Lucy’s voice. He reminds me of an Opera Musical singer on the horizon also destined for a good future. This song just melts into our hearts n puts a smile on our face. Can you please review Lucy’s version of EVERGREEN. I think it’s her best ever song . Thanks again 👌🌹

[@5pmevans]

Thanks again Juliet! Until Lucy came along this wouldn’t have been my kind of music …. But it is now!

[@johncollins392]

That's the magic of Lucy,she draws you in to listen to music you wouldn't ùsually listen too!

[@LesParker-qx9xs]

Anything that Lucy sings is my kind of music ,absolutely love her

[@briankrames1883]

Juliet, thanks for your always insightful reaction, beautiful! Fantastic duet with Lucy and Will doing their solos and the duet was on point, just magnificent! There are a couple of performances where Lucy doesn't smile at the end and both of these are deeply emotional and heavy empathy: "She Used to be Mine" and "Someone You Loved"; no smiles from Lucy on these as the intensity, emotion, and passion are overwhelming in these, you should react to both!

[@petercaulf]

Rosie hits the West End in the autumn (fall) of 2024. She also has two concerts planned for the spring. Will has just taken the lead in LesMis in London.

[@davidhampson2463]

Where is Lucy's 2nd concert in the spring please. I have only had notification of the Manchester one early March

[@petercaulf]

London but no details of venue or date yet.

[@AndrewStritch]

amazing duet from Lucy and Will . LUCY SEEMS TO SING IN A HIGHER REGISTER THAN NORMAL. thanks for your comments never noticed the head nod before

[@spencerbutterbaugh6104]

I am no expert but, I believe Lucy is using her classical training to deliver is song.

[@Tommy-e2y]

Yes. The ending harmony with these two was so beautiful and their smiles? God's love shines from his covanted children...

[@ericpemble4599]

Lovely reaction!! 2024 is when the musical opens, I believe.

[@hollyscottdaum3455]

I also love when she and Will Callan sang "The DayThat I Met You" I think she was 15. Check that one out too

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

hollyscot Lucy was 14 and will is 9 months older than Lucy !!!

[@Froggyh63]

Those two have God given talent!

[@BlackCloud82]

Juliet, regarding the chorus, those notes may be a large jump but in my non-professional ears she lands them perfectly and puts her vibrato on them too. The two highest notes are so pure they almost sound operatic. Plus the little ornamentation she added is super. Little things like really standout to me emphasizing Lucy's outstanding talent.

[@lelandallen144]

I cold care less what juliet opinion is. I have a good ear.and luy will become one of the best in the world. She has the best backing her in her career.

[@lelandallen144]

Suggestion. Try playing the song without your stopping it. We will draw our own opinion. Glad you're not Lucy's coach.

[@seanhinchy6305]

Pie jesu by Lucy Thomas and Martha Thomas is a beautiful listen too

[@BlackCloud82]

Juliet, on a slight tangent Lucy just released "Bridge Over Troubled Waters". Lucy's low voice will impress you.

[@lynneshellyattianeseattian9321]

New song, Mary Did You Know, Martha and Lucy! It's amazing!

[@markmark63]

Will is currently playing Marius in Les Misérables at the Sondheim Theatre in West End, London.

[@tomwhite4736]

A smashing match ❤ .

[@JoseDthoppil]

❤❤

[@jamescallan1176]

Just for your info. Will is actually in Les Mis in the West End, London. Playing Marius

[@neilh8473]

Hi Juliet, excellent review and analysis as always 👍

[@pedromancenithe3rd]

Hi Juliet. Once again a wonderful performance from both Lucy and Will. You said you would like more details of the musical "Rosie" Other than the fact it is scheduled for sometime in 2024 in the West End, I think that is about it at the moment. As you said, all these songs from Rosie have been show cased over quite a long time. However if you want to see where this all started then take a look at Lucy's very first song from the musical, called "One Day". Even at the tender age of thirteen, she performs a master class in every aspect of the performance. Her perfect diction highlights that fact that she's English. I've left a link below as it can be a little hard to find. kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIi5gYGepN5snM0

[@davidhampson1958]

Please react to Lucy live from Manchester singing Somewhere....You will love it :):)

[@davidhampson2463]

Rosie 2024 Hopefully

[@JoseDthoppil]

❤🎉

[@LesParker-qx9xs]

Juliet as always i really love your reactions to Lucy, your the best ,but if want to hear more of Will ,you have to check out, Can i have this dance ,from High School Musical with of course Lucy, i don't recommend anything without Lucy being involved in some way, I've been captivated by Lucy since the first time I heard her sing Moon River ,about 4yrs&8mths ago

[@kajuncourier]

Lucy Thomas mother is a singer and they have their OWN studio at home. Listen to (SMILE) with Lucy,Martha and their mother. That is where they gained their talent/training.

[@eileengibson1874]

Wow wow wow ❤❤❤

[@L.I.gor.V.]

(3:39) вы реально меня рассмешили -- столько раз! а я поставил на повтор раз 6-7! Спасибо Вам! Конечно, это не стиль вальса и не стиль Люси (форсировать и акцентировать повышение) ;))

[@richwebber6903]

lucie and will sang a song together in high school called can i have this dance

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

Juliet LUCY THOMAS just released a new song, STUNNING as usual.....BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATERS.......BEST version....EVER !!! check her out !!!! Thanks !1 its part of her 5th CD out Dec 8 2023 !!!! there are several new songs on it !!!

[@HopelesslyAddicted-s8o]

Great reaction from my favorite vocal coach! I'm curious though, is Will super tall or is Lucy super short? It doesn't really matter. Will sings great. And no one else signs like Lucy. Please react to "The Climb". Lucy and Martha's harmonizing is exceptional.

[@jamescallan1176]

Will is 6’2” or 6’1” according to online stats.

[@SeongyunHong]

Hi Juliet! One of my favorite Lucy's song is "Listen". Have you ever heard of it?

[@L.I.gor.V.]

(2:18) я рад, что вам понравилось! и да, Я планировал сделать вальс из марша

[@wilburfinnigan2142]

Thanks for the react Juliet, a little back story, Lucy met Will on the UK Kids back when she was 14, Will is 9 months older than Lucy, and taller, they were both eliminated in the same semi finalist round, and Lucy has done 2 other song with will way back right after UK Kids, they were "WHEN I FIRST MET YOU, and CAN I HAVE THIS DANCE, Lucy at 14 was over powered by Will in both, what I don't care for when a powerful male sings with a woman, but it appears Will toned this down and also Lucy has more power, This song is said to be the "Shed scene" from ROSIE where they get caught in a rain storm, all that is said as I think they are keeping the story line "close to their chest" and not say too much, ROSIE is set to open in West London "Fall of 2024" Check out their earlier songs and do not forget Lucy's first Commercial recording of ONE DAY, her start to stardom, it is REALLY worth watching, and you get to see some "Farm scenes" of Lucy at 13 !!! Thanks again !!!!

[@RustyB14]

You can review “ Hold On” from Rosie but disappointed of no visuals for Will and Lucy

[@lawrenceb5236]

A slightly different reaction you had with The Prayer, lol. This 1 was a lot easier on your emotions.

[@kajuncourier]

Will has a wee bit of a Scottish lilt in his voice, very suttle on certain notes. Very pure Male voice.

[@jamescallan1176]

He was born in Warrington but his Dad is Scottish.

[@RustyB14]

You need to get to Lucy’s We Can Change the World ……before you’re the last to review. Another original gem from Rosie

[@naresh2592]

Not her usual graceful performance, no disrespect, she'll understand what i mean. She no doubt awesome.

[@hollyscottdaum3455]

Rosie will be out Fall of 2024

[@richardpomerantz2820]

Lucy did a duet with Chris Brooke when she was 14 and he was 15 or 16

[@stuartwhyte4959]

Do you mean Will Callan. Don’t know Chris Brooke.

[@stuartwhyte4959]

I see you corrected yourself later.

[@L.I.gor.V.]

и я рад, что с помощью Криса Брума МНЕ удалось расправиться с этой ужасной (одной из самых нелюбимых!) музыкальной фразой из моего детства! нет, правда! это совсем не троллинг (не дай бог так думать) Люси или Криса, а такое счастье! СЧАСТЬЕ! Счастье -- превратить уродливую музыкальную фразу в розу для Люси Томас!🌹 💞💓💗💕 🌸❤🌺

[@Kelsea-2002]

Musical will never be my genre ... Actually, there are only two singers of whom I can listen to and enjoy a song from this genre. On the one hand from Lucy and on the other hand from Floor Jansen. Will Callan, embodies everything I don't like about musicals. That's just too cheesy for me.
