Faouzia "Tears of Gold" REACTION & ANALYSIS by Vocal Coach/Opera Singer

We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com

[@shaunsr7144]

you should watch the stripped Version....more of faouzia's vocal abilities are portrayed there

[@jaimegrey2104]

Totally agree!

[@TheCharismaticVoice]

Wish I'd known this ahead of time - I'll definitely check out the stripped version of her material in the future.

[@shaunsr7144]

@@TheCharismaticVoice awesome! You should actually react to all her stripped songs, you'll be amazed I promise 😉

[@kbouwk]

She goes vocally wild on the stripped versions of her tracks.

[@chrisinnes4706]

@@TheCharismaticVoice it's definitely worth it.

[@25Dzone]

PLEASE more Faouzia - she probably has the most stunning modern female voice. You've got to listen to her "How It All Works Out (Stripped)" version, with her on a piano, it is just magical. She is unreal. It is one of my favourite songs of all time.

[@bi1iruben]

agree - kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6vVmmiGadSVl9k

[@juanh6923]

I also recommend you to hear her song "How it all works out" (stripped) and of course the stripped version of "Tears of gold"

[@juanh6923]

You Need react to the stripped version of this song! Everyone prefer the stripped version than the original one because she shows her amazing range and her voice sounds more clear 🤩🤩🤩

[@josef-1209]

Not everyone

[@juanh6923]

@@josef-1209 almost hehe

[@Love_Lara]

Stripped version is way way way better

[@danip2138]

agree

[@josef-1209]

For me it honestly depends on the song. Tears Of Gold: Both (mostly Stripped Version) You Don't Even Know Me: Official Version This Mountain: Official Version How It All Works Out: Both Born Without a Heart: Official Version

[@Rosannasfriend]

I hope you watch the stripped version next. All of her stripped versions of any of her songs are superior to the official single versions.

[@wernernekcnarv5230]

Yes Faouzia!! Her stripped versions of her songs are even better

[@texasles612]

I'm not sure if anyone else has mentioned this, but Faouzia has had no vocal training. She is self taught. She also attends Manitoba university as an engineering major. I love her voice and I love your reaction to this beautiful singer. Faouzia's bio on her IG says that she sings a little sometimes.

[@edwasintx]

I just saw her live in a really small venue - maybe 250 folks - and she was just breathtaking. 100 Band Aids Stripped Live is a great video to watch. ❤️

[@davidharebo7023]

Faouzia is the total package in my opinion!!!!!

[@bushrahaddad987]

The stripped version is brilliant 😍

[@dantesos7564]

I cant wait! I have been waiting for you to react to her. You should watch "This Mountain" her acapella version and as others have mentioned, her stripped version of Tears of Gold although you cannot go wrong with ANY of her songs. Super excited about this. Setting my alarm!

[@thomasruter9073]

As a metal head who mostly listens to Metalcore I go with my first request in a completely different direction. I'd love to hear your thoughts on Fauzia's "live" rendition of "Für Elise." It's a reimagined take on Ludwig van Beethoven's masterpiece, which was discovered posthumously, now embellished with stunning lyrical vocals. Should you decide to give it a listen, I definitely recommend the "live" version for a true display of her extraordinary vocal control, far surpassing the simplified official recordings. Although it undergoes significant post-production, similar to the previous always to prefer "Stripped" versions, it stands out as a remarkable showcase, eclipsing the simplified official releases. Thank you and you team for all the great content and hard work!

[@andrea_ricciardi]

It's really a shame you haven't reacted to Fouzia (at least one of stripped versions) again. i understand that you have to follow your patreons and people thas support you, it is right thing but this kind of talent deserves at least two or three shots Congratulation for 1M subscribers 👏❣

[@judester9482]

I love this version the most. Her voice is very powerful!

[@Rosannasfriend]

Lol, you say you want to hear her do runs and sing really low and high... that’s her signature on every stripped performance. She also is famous for yodels and the best mix voice and transitions

[@kirbys1370]

Hi Elizabeth, I Loved this performance, your reaction and your peach-salmon colored outfit/dress. This is my 1st time listening to Faouzia and she is an Amazing singer w/ a beautiful and distinctive voice! I also Loved this Gold-Themed video! I believe Gold is a popular choice that modern Moroccan women wear today as well. Thank You, Elizabeth, for another Insightful Reaction & Analysis! And Thank You for ALL your Time, Hard Work and Dedication making these reaction videos!!! 😄

[@juanh6923]

I highly recommend you these three songs to be in LOVE with FAOUZIA 1-Tears of Gold (stripped) 2-How it all works out (stripped) 3- Elon (this song is right after the credits of her stripped concert, ) in love with this song! 🤩🤩🤩

[@Rosannasfriend]

yes, but for the first two, don't use the stripped concert. Use the stripped versions that came out before that. lol . Don't get me wrong, the stripped concert is great, but the ones with her sitting down or with a piano are a better and more raw experience.

[@juanh6923]

@@Rosannasfriend Yes! Totally agree with you!

[@gun10ck]

Faouzia has a phenomenal stripped concert with all her hits if you'd like to react to her at her finest.

[@bethelliot7140]

Yay! I love Fouzia! Her stripped versions are the best! ❤ here is this one stripped: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qHaXgHp4ZsaCmqM

[@westwoodsidestudios7551]

Thank you so very much for your fascinating insights. You’ve really added so much to my enjoyment of music in general and appreciation of much more layering and depth than I previously heard. You’ve really helped me through slow recovery from the roller coaster that COVID-19 has been for me. Thank you

[@kirsil7471]

Bugger, missed this. Never heard of her before, pretty cool singing.

[@bigsky3792]

She just came up with a single(Minefields)recently featuring John Legend.

[@mangalover0149]

She is utterly fantastic.

[@sharisp2]

Check out her Stripped: Live in Concert from the Burton Cumming’s Theatre. She does Tears of Gold, How It All Works Out, Bad Dreams, You Don’t Even Know Me and others, all her own original music. Watch at the very end, after the credits roll, for a special treat called Elon-amazing! The whole concert is less than 30 mins but you will see all her vocal colours and textures 🥰

[@jillianhelding]

She sounds just as good stripped and live! Stunning voice, excellent technique; there's no one else like her. Also recommend her song Bad Dreams--the runs are INSANE.

[@marthaklaus1075]

CAN’T WAIT!!!

[@brianvandy4002]

I like her "You don't even know me." The vocal acrobatics are mind-blowing and it's not as fast as this one. You can really hear her lows and highs and amazing vibrato.

[@KatasaurusRexxed]

Wow, that voice. I just subscribed to her channel a minute into this video.

[@ejcihos]

Truly all of Faouzia's songs are perfect showcases of her special voice, but if you want to be dazzled by her low notes, check out her song "Bad Dreams".

[@lonniemartinjr1157]

The Charismatic Voice, could you please do more reactions to FAOUZIA. Her ability to write/compose/sing/play multiple instruments makes her quite uniquely uncomparable to most musical artists, in my opinion. All her music is musically interesting, but her stripped down versions of her music, allow you to hear more of the uniquely specialness of her voice. It's amazing that she's never had a vocal lesson, she's self taught. Since you're also an impressive musical artist/singer and Interested in other musical artists voices, I think you'll enjoy her unique musical artistry. :-)

[@starian1234]

I love that you can appreciate effects on vocals as well as technique!

[@BipolarBLKSheep]

She has grown SO MUCH as a performer since she made this version. I just cant stop thinking about how badly I wish you could listen to the stripped version to really compare the two performances and see how far she has come since then, and how much this song can impact you based on how she sings it! *nudge nudge* ;)

[@brenspin]

"Tears Of Gold (Stripped)" - Faouzia kzbin.info/www/bejne/nauUq5xtpLqnlbs For those who would like to hear a simpler vocal & piano version of this song with a greater emphasis on her vocal talent. She also plays multiple instruments.

[@jeff.howard]

Given how much you seem to have enjoyed this I'm sad to see you haven't reacted to any more of her songs! She has a live stripped concert and most songs available in stripped versions and all worth your listen and reaction! Thanks; I enjoyed this!

The stripped version is GOLD

[@brenspin]

Were you already familiar with Faouzia, Frank?

[@RommerskirchenFrank]

@@brenspin no, never heard of her before

[@brenspin]

@@RommerskirchenFrank Here are few of my other Faouzia favorites if you are interested to hear more. 1) "How It All Works Out (Stripped)" kzbin.info/www/bejne/o6vVmmiGadSVl9k 2) "This Mountain (acoustic)" kzbin.info/www/bejne/oKnZhad4aLR3qJo 3) "100 Band-Aids (Stripped)" kzbin.info/www/bejne/mqmygZSYhNylrpY Hope you'll like them. :)

[@itzel1735]

If you haven’t followed her, Faouzia’s Amazon Music live version of “Anybody Else” or “RIP, Live” are stripped, acoustic versions. Just her and piano. You can really see and hear her. I was at one of her concerts last year, and she had a much brighter voice than I was expecting. If her first language is Arabic, it seems that that really influenced her ability in her lower range, especially with producing nice open sounds when she’s down around E3.

[@itdoesntmatter8491]

Faouzia is a 20yo Moroccan 🇲🇦 , living in Canada She never took any vocal lesson she writes her songs by herself she's a multi-instrumentalist (violin, guitare and piano ) she speaks 3 languages fluently (english, arabic and french) and she still following her engineer studies She did a song (BATTLE) with David guetta on his ICONIC album 7 when she was 17 She made a song with a famous french rapper called Ninho for his album, the song (MONEY) went platinium She sang ( I FLY) featuring Galantis for the film SCOOB She also sang with Kelly Clarkson the arab version of (I DARE YOU) She made a song (MINEFIELDS) with the one and only JOHN LEGEND She also droped out an EP of all her stripped songs .. it's amazingly wonderful and mind-blowing.

[@mangalover0149]

Faouzia is one of my favourite artists besides Nightwish. I love every single song she's made and featured in.

[@sezzyjuli10]

I'd love your analysis on This Mountain by Faouzia. I was blown away when I first heard it.

[@MIBAQS]

Yeah! And more Voctave! =) Love from Uruguay

[@lelandbates931]

If you would, I would love to have you assess her stripped/live version of this song. Her live concerts seem to showcase her voice a lot more. I love how much you teach and share while assessing the voices of various artists. Also, your appreciation for all kinds of music is really wonderful. Thank you!

[@Halistermatify]

I suggest watching the entire stripped live concert, it’s truly amazing and really showcases what she can really do with her incredible voice. Great reaction btw

[@Robo34]

hello. sooo, subscribers vote ;) she needs to react to Bobby Mcferrin -Spain ( Chick Corea) live in Bratislava 1986. He is really a master of voice. I have always said that. This year he recieved one of the biggest jazz awards possible - The Nea master award .

[@ainuraabdrakhmanova7512]

Faouzia is a diamond. But can you, please, react on Daneliya Tuleshova with this song. 14 year old girl from Kazakhstan as well as Dimash🙏🏾❤You will love it too.Thank you for you reactions🌷

[@slappywag]

I've never seen anyone react to 'Josh Weathers at The Kessler Theater in Dallas, Texas'. It's him singing Whitney Houston. Incredible.

[@HEYPictures-legacy]

more faouziaaa

[@BipolarBLKSheep]

ohhh man. This is so good, but you're going to get torn apart for not listening the Stripped verson! lmao!! MORE of her please though, like quickly!!! My birthday is on the 22nd! I'd love to see a review of her stripped performance, ANY of it. Its truly MAGICAL!

[@BlitzsieLDiscoLSnow]

Lovely seeing your reactions to multiple genres! I heard you liked weird instruments as well, in that case check out Patty Gurdy, she plays the hurdy gurdy and sings. Her independence in hands/voice are very easy to see in her one-take version of Sweet Dreams. She has an amazing background and can sing nearly everything! On her new album she included an opera duet (Flower duet from Lakmé) which she arranged for her voicetype and instrument, but she usually has more rock-vibe going on. Her song "Run", especially the live version in Lexington is one I can wholeheartedly recommend. I can also highly recomment Larkin Poe, they're two sisters playing everything from blues to rock and in between, and Rebecca has the most amazing voice I've heard, kind of comparable to a rock-like version of Haley Reinhart. Her sister Megan does the backing vocals. I really recommend any of the songs from their tip o' the hat series, which are stripped down covers of classics, usually with just their two voices, a guitar, lap steel, and some stomping/clapping/fingersnapping.

[@phgorzen2854]

Great reaction and outstanding analysis - Marsii @The Charismatic Voice . Also, please check out the 7 songs in one video titled "Faouzia - Stripped: Live In Concert from the Burton Cummings Theatre" ... promise you will love it! The concert took place in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada.

[@vicididi3810]

That would be so cool if you'd watch ; Le vaisseau d'or d'Émile Nelligan par Marc Hervieux. It's in Quebec french and it is a marvellous tenor.

[@diannaw3034]

Finally!!! This makes me so happy!!! The stripped version is way better.. but you got her on your channel.. so now all you have to do is react to all of her stripped songs..and her song Mind Fields with John Legend! ;)

[@anthonyh9467]

We freaking love you!!!! You know that? :)

[@BipolarBLKSheep]

Damn, I havent heard this version of the song in SOOOO long. I didnt realize how much MORE I like the Stripped versions... These more produced versions just seem so rushed now! haha

[@kiksipixie]

Please please react to Faouzia - You Don't Even Know Me (Stripped Version). This one is so good!❤️

[@robv3126]

I really want to recommend Licht en Donker to you. It's a Dutch song from Froukje, and the mix of melodies are exquisite!

[@OpDDay2001]

You should take a look at some of the songs Riot Games have made (strange sentence there, but it is a correct). They've a metal "band" called Pentakill. A multinational K-Pop group called KD\A. They've produced songs with lyrics for skin lines (Star Guardian has even an 'anime opening' song and one or two 'short movies' of less than 5 minutes). It's quite impressive what they can get out of their singers and the styles that they can emulate/make. Along those lines... I'd suggest KD\A's Villain (which is sung by "Evelyn" and is sort of an origin song; actually sung by Madison Beers and Kim Petras), TRUE DAMAGE's Giants (a pop/rap/R&B 'super-group'), and Pentakill's Frozen Heart (or Mortal Reminder).

[@AC-ju5yu]

She has 6 songs on one video for her EP release. Every song is a stripped version. How it All Works Out, Born Without a Heart, You Don't Even Know Me, go to end after the credits for Elon. Have fun.

[@StevenEverett7]

Thank you so much Elizabeth for bringing this singer to my attention and for giving us your very interesting and intelligent reaction to Faouzia. This is my first time hearing this lady. Although the song itself isn't something that I'd pay much attention to I do greatly admire her voice. My greatest complaint is the video itself seems to actually detract from the singer as it keeps flashing from one scene to another. I found that annoying. I think I'd enjoy it much better if she were in a live setting with the camera simply focused on her the entire song. Cheers, Steve

[@brenspin]

Hello. You may have noticed in the comments that many Faouzia fans have mentioned 'Stripped' versions of her songs, including "Tears Of Gold." Here's a link to a stripped version of "Tears Of Gold" -- just her sitting on a stool accompanied by piano and strings. kzbin.info/www/bejne/nauUq5xtpLqnlbs I hope you will listen and enjoy it. 😀

[@kennethdemello1174]

I totally agree with those who suggest the stripped version is much, much better. She has the chops to back up this song, without the excessive autotune, which is used here in places to try to make her vibrato sound as if she were trying to use quarter tones. She does use quarter tones intentionally in places in the stripped version, but in a more natural way. It's a great song by a very talented singer, but the post production on this version nearly completely masks her true talent behind a heavy-handed producer.

[@moakazawa]

Love your breakdown of her voice and al of her intricacies. Would love for you to watch her live or stripped songs.

[@lydiapage7148]

I don't know if you react to two songs by the same artist but Faozia's song titled "You don't even know me" is also so powerful and amazing, I would really love to see you post a reaction for this song as well.

[@prestons8476]

Okay, how many of the viewers are here just to see Elizabeth and her facial expressions?

[@yippeethreeeight]

I don't like that it's just a notification of a new video that I can't watch until tomorrow. I'd love to see you check out Anneke Van Giersbergen doing Saturnine. I was going to suggest the version off of The Isolation Sessions, but you can pick any version you want; either solo or with The Gathering. Many fans think she's the best vocalist in rock. She inspired Floor Jansen to become a singer.

[@koa022]

Would love to ear your analysis of The Legacy of Atlantis, from Imperial Age . You are sure to love that song and those voices .

You should watch and react to the Metal Cover of 'Toss a coin to your witcher' from Dan Vasc in one of your next videos. It's so amazing and he's an upcomming relativly new artist with extreme potential ( in my opinion) ;)

That was AMAZING.....Going to check out the stripped version everyone is talking about next. OK, I am pretty sure you don't listen to what KZbinrs suggest, but I'll say it anyway. (Not a big deal since I'm just Copy and Pasting this part now. Recommendations Unleash the Archers "Time stands still" "Test your metal" "Tonight we ride" Nightwish "I want my tears back" The Rambling Sailors "Sailor's Prayer" Laboritorium Piesni "U lisi" Stoj pa moru" The Pirates Charles "Kyl'grath'ya" "The star spangled banner" "Rowman's row" Exit Eden "Impossible" Once Human "Gravity" Christmas Metal Songs "Joy to the world" and "Canon Rock" both by Orion's Reign featuring Minniva

I'd love to see your reaction to The Fighter by In This Moment. Maria Brink has the voice of an angel with the perfect amount of grit

[@terakahn]

I hope you do more videos on her. Hopefully live and stripped performances. I've listened to the stripped versions so much now that the normal one sounds strange. I I think they sped up the tempo and vocal a bit. And it's missing a couple of really amazing notes she hits in the stripped version. I hope you do listen to it stripped, even if you don't make a video on it. If I had a recommend another one I'd say listen to This Mountain, acoustic version. I think her most emotional song is 100 band-aids, and she has crazy agility in How It All Works Out.

I welcome you to dive in by yourself. lol. Don't hold out for reaction videos, enjoy!
