Random Girl Sings for Her Deaf Mom In Public

While out asking random people to sing in NYC, I met Sydney! She walks up to sing, we get to talking before going into her song. That's when I notice the family Sydney walked up with are communicating through Sign Language! I was intrigued by the experience and after reaching out to the family I learned this...

That "deaf mom" is my niece, whom I love dearly!!! She and her husband Trevor, and her kiddo's have a special place in my heart xoxoxo

[@jennylynn8314]

I'm a mom of a 19 yr old that also sings Billie Eilish covers. I'm also a musician and singer. Let me tell Sydneys mom, YOUR DAUGHTER IS AMAZING. She has SUCH a beautiful voice! Keep going Sydney!

[@theartistbonez1930]

Just went to look you singing

[@UKSkateboarding]

subscribed, you should upload more. you and your daughter have great voices

[@bigjerthebear]

I just went to your channel and listened to you and your daughter you are both amazing singers

[@jennylynn8314]

@theartistbonez1930 just saw this. That was so kind of you and made me smile. Yes, it's been awhile since I've uploaded after joining a band. Sincerely, ty. ❤️

[@kbc1883]

Cried my way through this one! Sydney chose a perfect song for her voice and she sang it beautifully. Really love when people who have done very little public singing find the courage within to step up to the mic. What a sweet family story. My grandma was deaf and I worked in the deaf community in my early career, so I was especially moved by this whole video. Thank you all for the interview and additional context.

[@rbenitez6140]

Me too! Why am I crying 🤷🏾‍♀️🤦🏾‍♀️!

[@Bl-mb3oh]

Same! Beautiful story, song and family. But in the end it was her amazing voice that had me in tears. She sang like she wrote it. Keep singing!

[@calicruz1992]

Totally crying right now! So beautiful!!

[@albeit1]

This channel is good if you suffer from dry eyes.

[@m.gramlich239]

I think that song that Sydney sang is really her ANTHEM. This was such a special video to watch. She's so young and has a beautiful voice. Keep singing Sydney!

[@oghash4912]

She sang from her soul

[@treehuggingbuddhist]

Thanks, my friend for highlighting Sydney and her family! I grew up with a father who was hearing impaired due to a condition called otosclerosis. He was able to “get by” with the hearing aids available at that time. A few years ago, I began losing my hearing at an alarming rate. This was during the pandemic and it took 2 years for the doctors to diagnose me with, you guessed it, otosclerosis. After surgery, I am joyful that I can hear Sydney sing! ❤️🌲🐿

[@AbbysBuddy]

❤

[@elouise5593]

I hope you can continue to keep your hearing throughout the rest of your life!

[@echognomecal6742]

Jeez Louise! That had to be panic inducing! So glad you have a happy result & think goodness for technological advances. Belt out a song once in awhile 😃

[@adrienneanderson-smith2257]

Thank God Almighty! It is AMAZING how much our medical industry has improved over the years.

[@genghis_connie]

How devastating! I can’t imagine how you felt. I’m SO happy your outcome was good! Thanks for sharing. - from a singer who developed vocal cord paresis

[@HensOnly]

I am deaf and my daughter is hearing and she has done choir in junior high and high school. I was SO proud of her! And your daughter is so amazing, beautiful and has a beautiful voice! Hope you can keep on singing, Sydney! Silence is golden to us, that we adapt, changed and used our other senses to make up for the hearing losses. Thank you for this wonderful video! *waving hands in air in applause*

[@JenShea]

Awe, that was wonderful. It's great that you were able to get the back story and 'chat' with them after Sydney's performance. Beautiful story and beautiful family!!

[@Rayna-gn3ni]

Vibration is key, folks. Your own words from your belly and chest can carry vibrations. Dump trucks hold vibrations. Concertos hold vibrations. Actions carry vibrations. WE ALL carry vibrations. Bless this so very much. I wish i could ASL sign to you, "I love you, for you, and how you love others.". This. You were made for THIS.

[@DonnaHarp]

🤟🏻 I love you.

[@peterdadswell2827]

Love what you have done in this video. Not "just another singer in the street" video (as great as they are), but using it to focus on deaf disability and a role music can play in their lives. Credit to you for using your platform so positively

[@SamFocused]

Wow this is an Amazing Story, how Sydney's parents can feel the Vibration in the Car Rides and while she Performes. Great Performance Sydney has such a beautiful and calming Voice 💯💯💯

[@rebeccalucas6063]

This made me cry. I have a deaf cousin, and couldn't imagine how a silent life could be. I hope people who are candidates for the chochlea implants can get them, but they are so expensive.

[@isabellewhite3505]

I cried too bc Sydney's voice was beautiful.

[@whitecrow1949]

I totally relate. I'm an old Deafish man with adult CODAs. I have a progressive hearing loss, so I have always loved music. Captions and easily accessible lyrics mean a lot to me. This video is awesome ... just like you.

[@elizabethgregory7998]

I'm crying 🥹 That was so special & so beautiful. Reggie what you do is truly unique. You connect us ALL ❤️

[@FUBAR1986]

You could hear the beauty and control, even though she was nervous, in her voice and pitch

[@daleenengelbrecht4861]

Reggie you have a heart of gold, you spread love and happiness. Greetings from South Africa

[@SamanthaJade-se1gd]

Sydney has a beautiful voice. That was very nice. 😊

[@SirBobson]

What a phenomenal voice, and a really loving family. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@BlaqRaq]

I fell in love listening to Sydney sing. The selection matches her persona so much. She sounded very good. Very good tones in her voice.

[@jearrellyates5612]

What attracted me most about your videos was that I could see right off the bat that you are a very observant, caring, passionate person who loves to converse with all types of people. I really wish I could be more like you. You are amazing! Keep it up! Much love!❤❤❤

[@HappyLife693]

This is a great insight to a community that does not get acknowledged often. The deaf culture is basically, silent amongst the larger culture. Thank you for this thoughtful video Reggie and team.

[@rhousto1]

That was special. What an amazing family that exudes kindness. Sydney is a brave little gal who obviously has been raised by some amazing parents. Thanks to Sydney and her brother along with Mom who were eager to share their story.

[@DolphScreamingSax]

Nice mini-documentary and very kind of you to sub-title it, so Sydney's mom can follow what's been going on.🙂

[@linedanzer4302]

OMG! *I love this video, the family, their story, and her voice!!!*

[@Cgee3]

I applaud that young lady’s bravery to sing in public. I hope that she continues.

[@smileyflowergirl]

Sidney's voice is beautiful! I took sign language classes at our local school for the deaf. I was at intermediate level. We do offer sign language at our church for 1 of the 2 services. I love it. I hope Sidney keeps singing. She has such a lovely gift. Love her and her family. ❤

[@brrblack497]

We can all feel the rhythm got me crying.

[@Momma-angela]

WOW!!! Sydney, you did awesome and have a very beautiful voice. I hope someday you lose count of how many times you’ve performed in public because you do it sooooo much. Go for it girl!!! 💕 😊

[@johnwallace4408]

WoW! What a story & Life Lesson here. BEAUTIFUL ❤

[@annadelasecond5562]

My heart melted with joy when I saw her mother's smile that looked like the whole world is not enough for her 🥰❤❤ Thank you so much Reggie for such amazingly thoughtful video 😍

[@lcmojo]

That was very touching to watch and Sydney is a great singer. They seem to be a very tight and loving family. 🥰

[@tanujamullick8371]

Thank you dear parents who have such talent in their DNA, passed on to the next gen. Thank you Reggie and the lady who ushered the girl to the mike and us , virtually...😊

[@Viv779]

Sydney was great This post was beautiful thanks Reggie. You are so in tune with everyone and their needs. You are a really lovely kind considerate guy. The world needs more Reggies

[@coffeemama792]

❤ such a beautiful young lady with so much talent an awesome beautiful family may God bless her and her whole family and for her to continue enjoying her life and doing what she does best she doesn't realize how many people she's helped buy brightening everyone's day and thank you Reggie sending lots of love your way we're still listening from Connecticut❤🙏🎶🎉💯❤

[@jenclifton8191]

great video and Sydney has a beautiful voice! So good that you could interview them as a family after Sidney sang with you! I feel sad that her Mom can't hear her sing, but, her Mom's attitude about it all is a beautiful one! She doesn't sound sad, but, rather focuses on how proud she is of her children's and her father's musical accomplishments! Her Mom seems so beautiful inside!

[@Jessica-SMC]

How cool of you to be able to give that family that special memory together. 💜 Love from St. Louis

"Coda" is a remake of the 2014 French film "La Famille Bélier"

[@williamskk1]

What a beautiful and sweet voice you have Sydney! Keep singing!

[@tylalaflamme1371]

Beautiful cover🫶🏻 This song has gotten me out of clouded head space so many times since its come out. I listen to it at least 5 out of 7 days a week and cry, but end up feeling a sense of relief and peace of mind knowing that so many other people relate/ feel a strong connection to the meaning behind the lyrics. Keep singing girly! Again, BEAUTIFUL cover🥹

[@kingsexploits]

Beautiful. Sydney was a good singer and her Mama was a good sport. Good luck guys. Greetings from Sri Lanka. Cheers.

[@carolrampling862]

Heartwarming video. Sydney you were wonderful ❤️ Reggie you are very talented. Thanks for sharing.

[@daisymeadow6662]

This was so so so so so special Reggie, thank you Sydney, your family is awesome. Your voice is incredible. Made me cry. My dad was called Sydney with a 'y' too. I think you will go far.

[@ThreeMinutesAday]

She's a cutie-pie who can saaaang! I heard some verbrado, heart, and soul in that beautiful song. Great mini family bio clip, too. Great job Guitaro!! Always enjoy your vids! ❤😊

[@kelvinmccoylcswlcdc8273]

She has an amazingly beautiful voice! 😮😊

[@geetaali5758]

It's heavenly..her voice and an amazing story .tks.

[@KatieDidsThirstForThrifting]

Such a beautiful, sweet voice and wonderful family! 💕

[@janetmckenzie146]

That was so incredible--and that you followed up with her family. Sydney, you have a lovely voice, keep singing! And studying!

[@arottie4097]

W0W! Miss Sydney sings like an Angel! Such a Beautiful vibrator. Thanx for sharing.

[@carolmartin4413]

This was so sweet! Sydney has such a warm, pleasant voice and we loved watching Melissa (Ben)and Trevor beam in support fortheir daughter/sister. So touching ❤ That pass- the -baton young man is a natural comedian btw! Funny!

[@greghartwell5018]

She has a future in singing with a little more doing it out in front of an audience.

[@Keyee1]

She has such a sweet voice. I enjoyed it.

[@cbordes1]

Amazing! ❤❤❤ She has the most soothing voice and gorgeous tone. The sky is the limit for her. If she gets the right vocal coach, she’ll be making records for us all to enjoy.

[@jolene-hf8807]

OMG! That was just beautiful. So calm and sure of herself. Love it. Good luck my sister.

[@jacekplacek8274]

Beautifull history. Cheers from Poland for girl, her family and everybody.

[@MsIchigo93]

People tend to forget that music is made of vibrations, and it's one of many things that connect us - Music transcends languages, and as you're learning now, even hearing abilities. Subwoofers, bass, etc. can often be popular amongst the deaf community - whether deaf or hoh, they can feel music as well as a hearing individual can. This is what makes the channel what it is. Stepping into new encounters with an open mind and seeing what comes out of it. Thank you for taking the time to learn a bit about Deaf culture and for taking the time to share it with us. I hope you continue with such opportunities.

[@Bessintheworld2]

Such a pretty voice - brought tears to my eyes ❤❤

[@chefbrooklyn5140]

Reggie this is one of your best videos it really goes to show that you are God's Angel and through music you bring out the best in people what a AWESOME Angel you are

[@jennifersherman8838]

Her deaf mother, being there, seeing her beloved daughter stand before a crowd and share her fantastic musical talent and thought it was an amazing moment! Her daughter's talent brought back fond memories of her musical family. I know American Sign Language and I was touched when I saw this video. Jennifer San Francisco Bay area USA

[@everlyfrizzell6690]

omg reggie I cried happy tears all the way through that video. sydney is very talented and slayed that song. my best to her family. amazing.

[@allthingsartwmari]

Aawe..this was a heartfelt one for sure 👏🏼🎶👏🏼🎶👏🏼

[@anitastaudacher1903]

Sydney you have the sweetest voice thank you for singing. Reggie I love your videos ‘they make me feel good’! - especially when you don’t know the song, listen to a few bars & then play it. Thank you for sharing your talent & bringing happiness to the streets. Greetings from S Australia

[@Sebastopolmark]

GREAT piece Reggie. Taking the time to take it further speaks volumes on who you are! !! !!!

[@dberd9149]

What a beautiful voice she has! That song resonated with her! Be happy! You are beautiful and blessed with a voice! ❤

[@oppsyikesreally]

This is so good so far!! I’ve been an ASL interpreter fo 20 years and I really appreciated this even more than all the other videos of yours I enjoy

[@genghis_connie]

She sounds absolutely beautiful. Reggie played this with such care. I worked in the deaf community for years. Signed song interpretation can be so gorgeous.

[@eschdaddy]

Okay, I’ve only seen your shorts. I’ve always liked ‘em… but I LOVE your long format ones. The story behind the singers and the joy of singing is priceless. You are awesome!

[@jnonymous]

What a special treat!!! I love this post-interview & watch reaction included with the original performance. I always love getting to know these people. That's what's special to me about all the people you meet, is learning where they come from and their connection with music and with people. I would absolutely LOVE to see more videos like this whenever they become possible!

[@Bazrad68]

Reggie is the best. I would love to walk down some random US sidewalk and see him doing his thing. What a sweet voice Melissa has. Well done little lady.

[@susannemac2800]

The more of your videos I see, the more I love your heart. It's a beautiful thing you are doing. The effect on your singers and your audience is transforming. Thank you, you make the world a better place. ❤

[@markduggan3451]

A lovely voice.

[@KarlGillcrist]

You have chosen a path in life that leads you to some very talented and interesting people who open up and express themselves in ways they might not imagine doing but you have a way of making them comfortable a safe enough to give it a go thanks to you we are blessed with their gift of song .....keep sharing your passion for music ...Sydney sounded awesome!! looking forward to your next video Karl from eastern Canada

[@PoppyOak]

Beautiful voice, beautiful family, beautiful video. 🎉 Thank you for sharing this with us!! Still crying because it’s so moving 😭 ❤

[@Marie.b]

Sydney that was a beautiful song. Loved your voice. It is a pity your mom doesn't get to 'hear' it as we do but she hears more deeply id say. And the fact she passed on music from her dad to her kids makes her happy. X god bless..lovely family.

[@MikeB-sk5ks]

That is a beautiful song, thanks for sharing uplifting music with the world!

[@tiggerhaines4307]

She did awesome. I love that song. It great to see deaf parent with their kids and talk about.

[@thatswhatisaidCA]

So touching. Lovely voice, Sydney! Thank you Reggie for these providing these opportunities that mean so much to so many. 💛 Hi from Vancouver, Canada!

[@diannelasorda6961]

I have tears running down my face, how sweet and beautiful.

[@jeffreydunlap9118]

What an amazing story and beautiful family. No closed minds there. You are amazing and what you do is truly beautiful and sharing the gifts you have been given. Thank you 🙏.

[@fionafinch348]

Beautiful voice you have, Sydney. Please keep singing!

[@sharonrenninger7050]

Reggie I always enjoy your videos, but this one moved me to comment about few things that stood out on this one. I loved that this had a back story that you & your team really captured. Thank you for sharing their story so concisely & beautifully. I truly hopes Sydney keeps on singing. One day she should try out for AGT or the voice. You should turn these videos into a TV show. Anyone in TV land looking for a great show with a kind, uplifting vibe?

[@Tropicalpisces]

My deaf Aunt literally saved my mom and her siblings.. literally. She is emotionally better than like 99% of people I know. 🎉🎉🎉🎉❤

What you do is AMAZING Reggie , this is brilliant. Massive shoutout to everyone involved 😜✌️💜

[@Badfish277]

Such a beautiful voice and awesome family!

[@LTian-so4td]

Oh, this is so really beautiful!!! She has such a beautiful voice!!! Blessing for the family!!!

[@pauliethaman884]

I honestly think that you 3 should write a song together and put it out on KZbin And watch it go Viral🙏🏻

[@mmacak08]

That's amazing. Love what you do, bro.

[@lealmusico174]

No inicio fiquei sem entender qual era o propósito da tua oferta musical...mas agora entendi e gostei muito, porque vai alem de só revelar novos talentos...excelente...incrivel.

[@TheSavageGent]

Got me tearing up over here 🙏🏼

[@rodrigomartins7090]

Meu inglês é limito e mesmo assim me sinto muito emocionado com esse vídeo. De longe esse é um dos canais que mais gosto no YT.

[@Tropicalpisces]

Oh man, Sydney, THAt was sooooo lovely. 👏👏👏👏

This is a so lovely video ❤❤❤

[@MARKETMAN6789]

Thank you all for a lovely video ,and insight into a beautiful family xxx

[@lulzywizard7576]

Every now and then, these bring a tear to my eye. I can't explain it, but these videos are beautiful.

[@GraceNow]

Thank you for singing young lady.

[@thecincylife5736]

Don’t know the song but she did it right for sure

[@MrJdsenior]

Cool departure, I really enjoyed it. Great family. Awareness is always a good thing. Cheers. More of this format, when the opportunity arises, would be fine with me. :-)

[@D0NL]

I have a deaf friend, Awesome guy. he's always with us on the festival's we visit. He says he enjoys feeling the music as much and maybe more as we enjoy listening to it. Bsides sign language he trained some incredible lip reading skills. Sometimes it's really like he can hear you.

[@russellb2620]

She certainly has a sweet tone and angst to her voicemail/storytelling . I sense the song choice was rather personal.. bless her. A few more live performances and I’m certain she’ll be channeling her nerves into power and control😊🙏 So glad her whole family got to experience this moment AND on so many different and individual levels.

[@thecarjacful]

Beautiful. Sydney you were great 💕 👍🏻 Reggie you always knock it out the park! You've got so much empathy ❤❤❤

[@charlettea.p.kealoha8050]

I haven't been on KZbin for a while now. I slowly, went into darkness just can't focus? I opened up my phone to KZbin? At the bottom a red dot. I tap it, and I found that You are still behind many healing moments. This video brought me a moment to focus. As I watched a smile on my face. I know, that I will be OK! Mahalo to the team for this video, from Honolulu, Hawaii. Aloha, Reggie.
