What a voice this girl has...future star and I mean it

[@josephjackson7269]

Jacob really concentrates when singing with Allie. I watch most his performances and he just has fun with crowd while making sound changes and solid vocals . With Allie it’s game time and they take their time together very seriously. It’s great to watch !!!

[@MusicMichelleDeGroot]

What a beautiful voice. A very beautiful performance outside. A great video, guys!! Have a nice day

[@peetvandervloed9278]

Kyle, be careful with your comments about Allie 😅she has a large and very fanatical fan base and will not tolerate negative comments. BTW, in my opinion she has a unique voice and I enjoyed this cover, I've been following her for a few years and I think she makes the covers her own and doesn't try to cover 1 on 1

[@harryfreeman8467]

You’ve not even scratched the surface of Allie Sherlock , and it’s a shame you have come to some of the assumptions of her that you have with just these two videos ! If you’d liked to hear the rich, raspy, soulful voice of Allie Sherlock and know why she is on the verge of having 5 million worldwide subscribers I’m going to give you three videos to check out. In all 3 of these videos it’s just Allie’s voice, her beautiful guitar playing, the mic and amp and some of her fans because most of Allie’s performances are live on the street. From 2 years ago her cover of “ Free Fallin”, also from 2 years ago her cover of “Back to Black” where she is wearing the gray yankee cap, and the last one more current “Happier Than Ever” from a month ago where she is wearing the black jacket with about 561,000 views ! I like to say Allie feels the music and because she does she makes me and a lot of other folks about 5 million feel the music !

[@jojochristy5113]

I believe the sensational headlines on her video's are a good marketing tool. Allie has several original songs on youtube and while she is a great 'Adele' singer, check out herself and Fabio singing Billy Jean (52m views) or herself and Cuan singing unchained melody (29m views). Also she was 16 earlier this year and a lot of these videos when she was much younger. I think you need to listen to a number of her videos to give an informed analysis.

[@TheDeedeeFiles]

Wonderful singing

[@brianfd622]

Incredible these two are singing on the street, I would love to see Lady GaGa recreate that song on the street, the criticism of her using her iPhone to follow the lyrics is logical she has a massive catalogue of songs, I doubt any of these three ever leave their mothers back bedroom. Very poor guys Allie Sherlock should never lose her perfect imperfections by coaching.

[@KyleWalz]

My mom's dead bro. Thanks though.

[@robertford7318]

Her mother died when she was very young so she has beed raised just by her dad.

[@sofarsogut]

Interesting to hear different opinions about such singers. Thanks for introducing them Kyle

[@tf1768]

Oh thank goodness you were stupified by this guy's voice. Have been listening to Jacob since I first heard his singing on YT. His originals are well written and when JK sings them live, it's awesome. And the way he sings covers always pleases.

[@NightcoreOjJ]

Amazing 💖

[@michaelbrowne8469]

Hold on, this was sung on the street not a recording studio, it's a cover not an original, she doesn't have to sound like Gaga or anyone else she has her own unique voice just like all singer who do covers.

[@KyleWalz]

And it's still the best cover ever. :)

[@muana13]

BRAVO !!! Great interpretation /cover !!

[@choppercarlos]

Fantastic. A great cover version. Best regards. Carlos

[@TheBest8]

Good voice

[@kly1994]

Also, check out this video with Jacob and his sister… these kids are just having fun. Don’t forget that. kzbin.info/www/bejne/rIfLhZika6qriLc

[@kly1994]

Allie is a singer with a good voice. Jacob is more of a musician. They are young, Allie isn’t even 18 yet. Jacob may be early 20s or so. I started watching them a couple months ago. I would recommend watching more of jacobs videos and even the ones where he’s performing with others.

[@KyleWalz]

I saw one before and Jacob is a fantastic singer. To me, he did amazing. He's singing on top of playing too.

[@frankallen10]

Kyle, bad enough insulting the girls voice but placing her in the UK when she is from Ireland is even worse. A bit of research wouldn't go amiss. Allie Sherlock is destined for greatness.

[@KyleWalz]

People always misunderstand that reaction videos are not research videos. Noted about the location. Saying she sounds like like Adele isn't an insult. Thanks for the thoughtful comment.

[@frankallen10]

@@KyleWalz Thanks for your respectful reply. Allie is only 17 and I feel that she has a distinctive voice and I wish her the very best. Because of our history we are particularly sensitive about our nationality.. I appreciate your message very much. Best wishes. Frank

[@theloneranger8725]

@@frankallen10 I mean this respectfully, Frank. If you're going to criticize a commenter for accuracy, you need to have your own facts straight. Allie is not 17; she is 16 years old and will not be 17 until April 7, 2022. As for Allie "sounding like Adele," of course she does; listeners noticed that when she first began busking five years ago. However, she is not trying to sound like Adele; that just happens to be her natural voice. I strongly suggest that Kyle and his friends review her cover of Valerie by Amy Winehouse, the one with The Three Busketeers backing her up. She is relaxed in that cover and singing alone for fun, and I think it is one of her best covers.

[@chiaretta76endless5]

So beautiful sharing like wonderful day 🤗👍 👋

[@nightcorekipo8953]

Awesome

[@Newbs-9680]

Sorry you guys there outside recored on the street put them in a studio with auto tune.... also allie sherlock is songwriter also and does lots different songs also she is 16 look at more of her videos end off..

[@KyleWalz]

We noticed they're on the street. Their singing sounds fine.

[@LilBaab]

Nice video my friend keep it coming love it 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾

[@thotrankaraoke]

Nice to see you again

[@Rose-vl5vb]

Nice

Rule 679 of the internet: If you say anything, some is bound to dislike it.

lol, I think that's probably in the bill of rights. no caps on purpose. :)

[@KyleWalz]

If this video is like my cohorts, check back tomorrow and see what the comments are like.

[@thotrankaraoke]

Hey guys. 🤘🤘🤘

[@tavsanliekspres]

Hi.

[@omaya9281]

Nice goud 👍👍👍👍

[@harryfreeman8467]

Kyle checking to see if you checked out those 3 Allie KZbin videos I recommended 8 months ago ? Just to address your concerns of Allie getting painted into a box, some fun Allie Sherlock facts. She was an opening performer for OneRepublic's European tour in the Netherlands, Paris, and London before COVID-19 shut everything down. During that tour she shared the stage and sang with Ryan Tedder. She has performed at the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg Germany . At the beginning of this month she performed at the National Lottery's Big Jubilee Street Party kick off celebration For the Queen at AO Arena in Manchester ! She currently has almost 5.5 million KZbin subscribers, over 150, million viewed KZbin videos and is in the hunt for ONE BILLION total KZbin views, not to mention Instagram, TikTok , Facebook, Spotify, and whatever else is out there. So what I'm saying is a whole lot and I mean a WHOLE LOT of people think Allie is more than just an Adele sound alike singer ! Also since your not into researching artists you react to, a little more background on Allie so you can appreciate what a talent and how good she really is, almost all of her over 900, yes I said 900 KZbin videos are live one take performances, something I don't think even top name performers would want to do, and Allie always gives you a top quality performance ! One last thought think about this, a teenager doing what she loves, hanging out with friends on the street, traveling all over the place and making a really good living, what could be better! But Allie is very dedicated and works very hard at honing her skills. Allie is the full package, fantastic singer guitarists, wonderful performer, and amazing personality with the ability to just draw people to her and if you watch any of her videos you will see this ! I believe there are big things in Allie's future, stay tuned !

[@KyleWalz]

Hi Harry, I didn't. I dropped solo reactions around then and haven't done any this year.

[@aaronomahony]

Allie is from my country Ireland. A great musician but dude make sure you get more of your stuff up too because I miss hearing your works. I've been listening over to your older stuff. Stay chill brother.

[@KyleWalz]

I didn't know until later she was from Ireland.

[@marloncaesar6272]

Hi allie IS allie ok allie not Adel ok she IS all bé she ok

[@KyleWalz]

I know she's Allie but she does sound like Adele. She's a wonderful singer but it's like in the 90's how many male singers sounded the same and it became a cliche. The Adele voice is the same.

[@myalt.yt.shorts.account]

She needs to find her voice

[@AdamBurseMusic]

Another great reaction guys 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥

[@luigiracing89]

Thank you for a very honest and musical review. The lady is very resistant to musical critique, so everything always sounds the same. It’s nice to hear a decent musical review.

[@robertford7318]

For crying out loud she’s only 15 or 16 years old, singing outside in the winter! How about you doing that!

[@keluargakecilku2574]

Good night friend

[@Mauronator]

Fantastic reaction!

[@randolphh8005]

This is a reposting? This was posted before. So the critique is it wasn’t the BesT Cover Ever? This is silly. Allie is 15yo, she sounds like Allie. Just because she also sounds like Adele we are critical? It’s a pretty good cover, very few can do better at her age on the street with no rehearsal. Just say dad doesn’t need to hype the video, although most people do the same.

[@KyleWalz]

I mentioned that it was from a clip of a live stream. It's a decent cover for a street performance, totally agree on that. We're not the ones to call this the best cover though. So it's fair to comment on that. Even your words of "pretty good" is far from best as they describe it.

[@randolphh8005]

I know it is fine line, but it is relevant. We agree the video is a little hyped. Critique her dad for that. Criticizing Allie for not sounding as good as Lady Gaga is ridiculous. It’s a real problem when people compare covers to the real artist without taking into account the venue and the manner in which it is performed. If you were to take a produced recording and compare it to the original, have at it. None of Allie’s busking performances use any kind of autotune or mixing or much of any rehearsal. That is not true of the great majority of You Tube singers.

[@KyleWalz]

@@randolphh8005 People often forget that when reacting we don't really know anything. We take the title and video on their own often at the chagrin of fans that know things we don't. This particular video unfortunately requires a lot of extra information in order to explain it. It's completely natural to compare covers to the original. What would be the point of a cover if not for the original? There are many wonderful covers of songs that are recorded in low fidelity or under less-than-ideal situations. That's an endearing quality of such covers but they will still naturally harken the original even if a very different version.

[@comattepicnessofgaming2557]

Awesome reaction 😊👍

[@robertford7318]

I would like to make her ad revenue from KZbin, she literally makes $500,000 a year before taxes in Ireland singing on the street!

[@KyleWalz]

That's awesome. I hope her parents invest that for her.

[@leebrn8588]

Entertainer A Personality A Enthusiasm A Vocals (depending on the type of song) C+ /B fair, and balanced review

[@robertford7318]

Take into consideration she’s singing outside in the winter time and she’s 16 years old! You try that

[@josephjackson7269]

You 3 are morans

[@KyleWalz]

Morans we be. Respek the spellz.

[@bevmordek5968]

Kyle if you are disappointed in Allie Sherlock you are a very sad person and I wonder what is behind that . Anyway this I pity you if you don't appreciate this girls voice and her father does not push her just the opposite he didn't really want her put there and she pushed her dad

[@KyleWalz]

I'm not necessarily disappointed in her, I just hope that she becomes her own individual. I wonder what's behind you that you couldn't hear that in what was said and just wanted to low key insult me. I pity you too. :) (See, that's not a very nice thing to read is it?) I didn't know that she was the one pushing her dad to promote her.

[@mmg9675]

Switched off when you called her a Brit. Amateur hour by you.

[@KyleWalz]

I didn't know until later she's Irish. It's funny how you just don't know things until you know.

[@Woodduck1]

One of the worst reactions of Allie I've viewed! No research evidently, Allie is 17 yo next week and lives in Cork, Eire and busks in Grafton Street, Dublin. Eire is definitely not the UK, that is like saying Dallas is part of Mexico! View her cover of Shallow with Cuan Durkin which I think is a better cover. Other covers worth watching is "Creep" and "Valerie" with The Three Busketeers. Grafton Street is one of the main Shopping streets in Dublin and the City Council has encouraged busking as part of their cultural development, which is showcaseing not only Allie and Jacob but several other new musicians, such as the Three Busketeers, Zoe Clarke, Saibh Skelly, Padraig Cahill and Fabio Rodrigues to mention only a few. Suggest you view some more of these developing talented musicians!

[@KyleWalz]

Ah, another person who thinks when you blindly react to someone that you have actually researched them and know all about them. Well, reaction videos are not research videos. I do apologize about guessing incorrectly about the location--I do understand the sensitivity on that. Of course there are better covers than this "best cover" version too. That should have been obvious to us. :)

[@CadZz04]

Adele , he mean Lady Gaga ?

[@KyleWalz]

I guess you mean me. Allie sounds like a lot like Adele the way she sings and forms vowels--the indie girl voice in other words.
