FIRST TIME REACTING TO Sohyang "Bridge Over Troubled Water"

[@pickin4you]

I am an old man of 60, and in my opinion she is the best female vocalist on the planet.

[@Kiki-ob3eh]

And in my opinion, your opinion is absolutely right

Beautiful Missunnaturally, FANTASTIC/AWESOME/GREAT reaction. You haven't heard anything yet. This song is just a small sample of what the PHENOMENAL So Hyang can do with her MAGICAL voice. Voice coaches agree that her technique is FLAWLESS. Her ANGELIC/POWERFUL and breath control are UNMATCHED and EFFORTLESS. So Hyang's goal continues to be, to use her voice to bring comfort to people who are experiencing difficult times. She has rejected numerous offers from major record labels. This gracious, humble woman is not motivated by either money or fame. Even when she sings in Korean, it is not necessary to understand the lyrics, because So Hyang is BRILLIANT at conveying the meaning/message of the song. She also arranged every aspect of this song. Not that it matters, but So Hyang speaks fluent English.

[@linatenebro5071]

Amazing golden voice,awesome, fantastic, perfect. She desserve to be a super star.

[@wickedwich]

Her talent is just amazing but when she sings, it’s her face expressions and sincerity that makes total difference from other singers.

Sohyang is such a powerhouse! Such an amazing vocalist. She’s a 42 year old Korean singer and cancer survivor who started out in gospel before crossing over into mainstream music so that she could, according to her, comfort and soothe as many people with her voice as possible. However, she has intentionally avoided worldwide fame. She’s been singing for 25 years now and she’s pretty well known in (and even outside) Korea for her incredible voice. I loved your reaction! And she has multiple amazing performances. I’d recommend “Arirang Alone,” “Everyone,” and “You Raise Me Up” (2018) next!

[@skylerpowers8871]

@@christinagreenwalt989 Right, she sounds horrible singing western songs and that’s why people like Michael Bolton, Josh Groban, Shane Filan, Kirk Franklin, Brian McKnight, Oprah Winfrey, and David Foster heard her singing western songs and said she was one of the best singers in the world. Does this mean you think she sounds good singing Korean songs? Lol

Thank you so much for nice reaction. Absolutely I agree with you. She is just amazing. She is a great Korean gospel singer. There are many K-pop stars in Korea, but there are many other great singers as well besides idol groups like BTS, Black Pink. Among them, there is a world class singer named Sohyang. She is considered one of the best vocalists in the world by many vocal coaches and singers all over the world. naver.me/GnVwuVZv I hope you listen to her song once again. She was originally a gospel singer, not a popular singer. She has pure, humble and beautiful mind. She never sing a song for the fame and the money. She said that She always want to sing a song to heal and comfort wounded many peoples mentally, physically. I'm a Buddhist but truly love her beautiful soul and respect her sincere faith in God. She looks like an angel. She always touches my heart and makes me cry through her so emotional song. It's just amazing and breathtaking. I'll always love her forever. Please more react to Sohyang.

She is not only one of the best female vocalists currently on the planet but a wonderful human being also. This was from a show called Immortal Songs 2.

Welcome to Sohyang's world. 4th impact attempted Sohyang's version of this song but nobody sings it like Sohyang, she is one of the worlds greatest but least known vocalists. She is a South Korean gospel singer (also not a girl she was 37 here) who sings to heal and comfort. You have not heard of her because she is an independent artist who has never signed to a large label. Trust me they have tried, she turned down Sony a few months ago. This was from Immortal Songs 2. I will do another post with some links, KZbin sometimes throws an error when links are used or it goes to spam.

Thank you for your reaction. Welcome to the world of Sohyang. She is one of the best in the world. Please react. 1. Everyone: This is the most difficult song in her life, Sohyang said. This song is a total set of all the techniques. 2. Lean on me: This song was performed in front of Michael Bolton. After the performance, Michael Bolton said. Sohyang is on the level of a master. Sohyang said her wish is to do a duet with Michael Bolton here. Later, Michael Bolton invited Sohyang to his concert and performed a duet together. If you look at the video, you'll be able to see the incredible improvisation of Sohyang in the duet. 3. Bridge over troubled water: It's a song of full emotion that doesn't need words. 4. Arirang alone: A song that expresses Korean emotions well, a movie-like song, a song that hit B flat5 with chest sound, I recommend it. 5. I have nothing : Another level!! 6. recently : Amazing Grace, I will always love you, I'll be there, I won't give up. 7. * Rap * : Day Day!!!!

You won't be disappointed with any performances of her, but if you want to know what perfection is, have to listen 'I have nothing' at the DMC Festival that shocked David foster who was the composer of this song

[@daveg.6820]

Welcome to the World of Sohyang (so yong). It is really big. She is beloved in South Korea (and on KZbin) and has chosen to confine her fame - she has dedicated her voice to comforting people because she considers it to be a gift. This is one of my favorites by Sohyang done a bit later, but also for a TV showcase. It is "I Have Nothing" Whitney Huston's hit. You'll love it. vimeo.com/312040132 She began as a Gospel singer and, of course, can now do anything , Pop, jazz, Gospel, traditional. She does her own arrangements like the orchestra, chorus, and staging you see here. Cheers.

[@ToddSauve]

We all wonder if So Hyang is human or from another planet. Current odds are that she’s from another planet, with an outside chance she’s actually an angel come down from Heaven. 😇 We have never heard anyone sing like her, or be able to hold an audience in the palm of her hand until she lets them go. Her voice is, as one person described it, like liquid gold. Perfection in clarity and pitch, and she doesn’t fade in the upper octaves, which is startling when you hear her hit those 5th and 6th octave notes with such POWER it actually gives everyone goose bumps-and makes us bald guys’ hair stand on end! As she says, her voice “is from God.” She does all the musical arrangements herself (with the input of her musical assistants), teaches vocal technique at a South Korean university and speaks four languages. Korean, English, French and Vietnamese. Let me catch my breath. OK. She is a cancer survivor from uterine cancer at the age of 20, just after getting married, and states very plainly that God saved her life due to the prayers of her church. But this left her without the ability to have children so she decided to dedicate her life to being a Contemporary Christian Gospel singer and has refused recording contracts from the biggest corporations in the world. She only wants to sing for charities, churches and while doing missionary work, to strengthen those suffering through difficult times. David Foster, Josh Groban, Michael Bolton and others have all travelled to Asia to work with her. She contracted hepatitis B from a blood transfusion during her cancer surgery and it clings to her to this day. Because of this she is prone to catching pneumonia but has sang perfectly while suffering from it in her live performance of “You Raise Me Up” before Shane Filan of Westlife on South Korean TV: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpbCfWylm82Iqpo She has asked those who love her singing to pray that God keep pneumonia away from her, she has suffered from it on so many occasions. Imagine how she must feel with this coronavirus floating around everywhere! She just turned 42 on April 5, 2020, though in Korean culture she would be 43 because you are deemed to be one year old when you are born. She was about 37 when she sang this version of “Arirang Alone”, their unofficial national anthem based on a 600 year old folk song expressing their desire to reunify north and south: vimeo.com/308253527 After being sick with pneumonia eight times from 2016 through to 2020, and considering giving up singing altogether, she decided to enter a televised singing contest called “King of the Masked Singers” in 2017 and won six consecutive times, which has catapulted her into international fame from the performances being posted on KZbin. Whitney Houston’s former manager saw her on KZbin and showed her to Oprah Winfrey, who brought her to David Foster’s attention. Foster then contacted So Hyang and went to Japan in order to perform eight concerts together at Tokyo’s famous Blue Note Club in late-2018. Here is the interview where So Hyang related the events: kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6LIdpJno7Vggc0 (Be sure to turn on English subtitles.) Here is the version of “I Have Nothing” Oprah, David Foster and the rest watched on KZbin: kzbin.info/www/bejne/imW4qnyDoMmsaq8 She preceded it with this blockbuster: vimeo.com/312061203 She could be an international Super Star if she wanted to be but has decided that it would ruin her spiritually, quoting Proverbs 14:12 “There is a way that seems right to a man, But its end is the way of death.” In a South Korean television interview So Hyang conceded that she struggled with her desire for fame for a number of years, going into the basement in her home numerous times and closing the door so she could complain vehemently to God that He was holding her back from becoming famous due to her health problems and other unforeseeable events. Then she later saw a Korean TV drama where the talented daughter of a very successful businessman was positive she would take over when her father retired. But he left the management of the company to a woman she hated, so she had a fit and lay kicking and screaming on the floor. So Hyang says she saw herself in that young woman and then understood that God was keeping her from developing self-destructive character by withholding celebrity status from her. kzbin.info/www/bejne/qJ2Qm4tvoKeme9U (Again, turn on English subtitles.) So as a consequence she does not pursue fame or fortune and actually has no social media presence whatsoever. What can one say about such a person? She is a literal Wonder Woman! And we need about a billion more just like her! On Oct. 5, 2020, it was revealed that So Hyang turned down yet another contract offer, this time from Sony Music. www.koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=20200921000995 “Debuting in [the] US was my utmost goal for the past 20 years. But when I got a call from the US agency, I politely rejected, as I realized that what I wanted most was not becoming famous,” she said. “I think singers are very susceptible to arrogance, especially when they hear the screaming from crowds on stage. It can make you feel like as if you’ve become God.” “And I’m perfectly okay with sharing my music via KZbin, which can reach tens of millions of people all over the world without making me feel stuck up. Maybe that’s why I was born in this era.” So Hyang is just the most amazing singer, Christian and human being. She is beautiful both inside and out, and so humble, with a stage charisma, facial expressions and smile that is off the charts. In Korean dictionaries 소향 (So Hyang) has several meanings. • First is a type of Korean traditional music. • Second is to burn incense on a burner. • Third is to go toward. But these meanings are rarely used today. 소향 is also the name of a heroine in a Korean traditional novel. So her name was well chosen, and you can take your pick! Please analyze her performance of “Bridge Over Troubled Water”: kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWfMeZtqrqeredE Also, please react to her version of “The Power of Love”: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gqOxnImIp7Bqlas Plus this beautiful duet with her friend Lee Hi where they do Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons’ “Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You”: vimeo.com/439148918 And this version of her singing “Oh Holy Night”: vimeo.com/322716334 Here she performs “Lean On Me” before Michael Bolton, who called her a vocal “virtuoso” after her performance: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fafWmHaiociBhqc This is a wonderful Jazz inflected performance of “His Eye Is On The Sparrow”: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmLZoaOspsR5Y5o Wait until you see her duet of David Foster's “The Prayer” with Jeong Ui Geu: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qKXIXqRpoNqhppo And finally “Will You Be There”: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHPHhKObrbqrn80 Here’s an English language interview with her that I’m sure you will enjoy: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hGPYkKOjpLyroJo Her English is perfect when she sings and almost perfect when she is doing interviews. OK, I’ll stop gushing now. Well, one more gush. In an interview with a Turkish music producer So Hyang revealed that she can hit Eb7 and D7 in practise. However, she never goes above the 6th octave in performances. Since she starts at D3 that is more than a 4 octave range ... so how about them apples???! Here it is: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jJ-zcp6ortesnbM I know, bananas isn’t it? Oh, I just remembered, she is also a published novelist and theological treatist, and a very good stage actress, which she proved by playing Julie Andrews’ part in the South Korean production of “The Sound of Music.” Moreover, she sang the “Moana” part in the Korean version of the Disney film, does the musical vocals for many South Korean television dramas, and is a talented artist and cartoonist. She can also play the piano and guitar. Is there anything this genius level woman can’t do? Though she is less than 5' 4" and only 100 pounds, So Hyang simply transcends the thresholds of music and takes you there with her. She becomes the song when she sings it. An experience like no other. I don’t know what else to say. I’ve spent entire days listening to her, and shed more than a few tears of joy along the way. I really must also compliment the choir, orchestra and audio/video production people So Hyang works with. They are all top notch from what I can see and hear. The Korean people are easily as talented as anyone else. As you can see, I am a shameless fan. 😜

[@bbwng54]

Todd, you have been a great advocate for So Hyang. Great summary of her as a person-it's only through KZbin that millions of people have discovered one of the greatest singers on this planet today. Unfortunately she will never gain the world wide notoriety and respect she deserves because of her choice not to seek fame. I also worry about her health and hope that she will grace our ears for many more years. What makes her great to me is that she has gotten better with age, unlike many other singers. For those who doubt her talent, she received training from Seth Riggs ,and knowledgeable and outstanding vocal teachers who know what they are talking about (eg Elizabeth Zharoff/Charismatic Voice, Roberto Delli Carri, John Henny,/John Henny Vocal Studio, etc.) appreciate her immense talent and regard her as one of the best singers in the world.

[@KBPro_edu]

Lots of reactors on Sohyang show a kind of the same pattern. In the beginning: they often pause the performance for analyzing the voice and pitch, stage, etc with their musical knowledge or experience and whatever. the most common word is " wow so angelic", In the middle of the performance: they keep saying a few words repeatedly, " amazing", "wow". " dang" etc, when it gets close to the climax, they don't pause it and forget to analyze the song, just speechless with blank eyes. then, at the end, they say "oh, my gosh", "where she comes from", "how I didn't know her", "please tell me more about her songs" , etc. .lol. I think you are also one of them. But your reaction was fantastic too!!! Welcome to the world of Sohyang. Now, you will see it will be very hard to escape from her world. too much addictive. lol

Thank you for your reaction to this song. I love how animated you were. Your actions depicted the way I feel when she sings this song. It brought me a lot of joy to watch your amazement, and I couldn't stop smiling. Thank you for brightening up my day. Here is some info, which I believe is all true, but I can't confirm all of it, for sure. You may already know most of this by now. Kim So Hyang is South Korean. She is currently about forty-three years old. She learned English from watching Disney movies, and has sung the part of a 'Disney princess', Moana, in the Korean version of a Disney movie. She learnt to sing at first by copying Mariah Carey, Whitney Houston and Celine Dion, each of whom she has listened to over a thousand times each, because their songs uplifted her during a difficult part of her life. She is often referred to as, "the Korean Mariah Carey". Her mother and father divorced when she was in high school, which caused severe financial difficulties and she often felt very sad. In her early adult life, at one point, she was impoverished and homeless. She became a very devout Christian. She met her husband, who is a drummer in a Christian band, POS, and she started singing with his band. She also plays guitar and generally composes all of the instrumetal arrangements for her live peformances. As another commenter has already said, she has had several severe health problems, including uterine cancer, and because of this, she is unable to have children. She lectures on singing at a South Korean University. She is also a fantasy author with multiple novels. So Hyang has refused to become an international superstar, despite having performed in over fifty countries, and wishes to, "live in harmony with all things," and sing so that she can bring happiness to others who need to be uplifted in difficult times, as she was by her idols, Mariah, Whitney and Celine. 'Bridge Over Troubled Water' is my favourite song of hers, but I love singers who belt well, so I also love her versions of 'Never Enough', 'I Will Always Love You', 'Everyone', 'Lean On Me', 'I Have Nothing', 'You Raise Me Up' and her version of the traditional Korean song, 'Arirang Alone', is just simply beautiful.

[@linzigrogan6844]

It is amazing that much noise comes out of that body because she is tiny. This is sohyang's arrangement & it was this version that 4th impact were trying to do. She is often referred to as the 'queen' when Dimash is 'king'.

The night she sung You Raise Me Up She just got out of Hospital and was advised Not to sing...So she did that....lol It's really a miracle this one of the most skilled vocalist of all time could be in such poor condition. And definitely she is much more than great technician and has Perfect Control of Her Gift...and Her singing is so special. So Being a Cancer survivor And still gets sick from Time to time. But is an Amazing Artist who gave up a Kpop career to sing for the Lord and for the Love of Music instead of stardom. She learned English as a Child from Disney Movies, which inspired her to Write two of her Books...(both Published and there are more). Also And Publicly thanks Mariah Carey for teaching her everything she Knows about Music ... that is some Testament to The Power of Music AS FANS AND ADMIRERS WE PRAY FOR HER CONTINUED IMPROVEMENTS IN HER HEALTH Part 2 Kim, So Hyang ...Immortal Songs 2 - You Raise Me Up kzbin.info/www/bejne/qpbCfWylm82Iqpo Or Kim, So Hyang 소향 ...EVERYONE ... kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmbIaICGp8pqn7s (most will tell you this is her most emotional one) Or Kim, So Hyang sings I Beleive I Can Fly & Emotions kzbin.info/www/bejne/e6bGdaaFjtSAZs0
