This song choice was a last minute change and her guitarist friend flew in overnight from the Philippines. Very little time to prepare and I’m assuming lots of intuitive choices, turned into one of KZ’s iconic performances

[@jannebrija9879]

Yes the problem with this is it followed upbeat performances and also the performances that followed it was upbeat. The emotions was delivered but the impact wasn't hitting as it is supposed to be.

[@kevwanders]

I saw this clip tweeted by the original singer tho...that's how great KZ was 😍

[@yuzumei3197]

When you're surrounded with vocally talented people, the only way you'll stand out is your interpretation of the song and how you effectively affect the listener's emotion.

[@gee7436]

So true.

[@ShanLiB]

Can you imagine competing in the Philippines, which has a crowd of great singers on every corner of every street? That she is so unique and such a great artist to be such a star in a place with that much competition is super human. She is so much more than just a singer. She a true artist in so many ways.

[@MineCraft-nz9pg]

Facts

[@Rosannasfriend]

You get extra points for me for coming back to K.Z. tandingan, went very few reactors do. Which is a shame because she’s one of the most versatile singers he will ever seen in your life. God bless you!

[@edzeljereza8234]

The original music video with Great Big World and Christina Aquilera was already emotionally driven as it is but KZ took it to another level.

[@Rosannasfriend]

Why don’t you watch her rendition of “close to you“ where she imitates a trumpet halfway through and even at the end as well? You could also watch KZ doing “Royals“ by Lorde. Rendition of that is so creative and interesting. KZ Tandingan is so versatile, and can do anything Strange and interesting with her voice!

[@EZsWaterBoy]

no matter how many times you stopped listening to her covers there is something you can't explain that pulls you back to her and listening it again.

[@emjay2102]

Imagine KZ Tandingan sang live, but her tone It's like she sang in the recording studio so beautiful and soothing voice she had very angelic. This one of my favorite song she sang on singers 2018.

[@rushwithtom3409]

Kz tandingan the Soul Supreme of Asia ❤❤❤

[@adamv5155]

KZ blessed us with a masterclass on how to give an intimate, emotional performance. Even if you’ve heard the song a million times she has you hanging on to every word. Her ability to embody the emotion of any song is why she’s in a class of her own as a performer.

[@marylenevillaflores7025]

oh kz you nailed it

[@bi1iruben]

and even if not a song one has heard before, indeed even if in a language I do not understand at all "The Hurts You Never Knew", a medley of 3 songs in Mandarin - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jGimiWp3fcx_oMk . Here's a version with English sutitles, and just wonderful how well she convayed the emotion of the lyrics.

[@davidcochran6291]

KZ is a force of nature. Everything she sings is an event. She is in a small group of singers that can make me cry from start to finish. I have a quirk in my brain I don't get chills, unless I'm cold. But where most of you 'normals' get 'goosebumps' or 'chicken skin', I cry! I've been that way since I was 5. Let me tell you when you're already the smallest kid in school (from Kindergarten on any class picture I was always on one end or the other of the first row. When I graduated from eighth grade the next smallest kid in school was in the first grade and he had skipped Kindergarten because he was capable. Anyway, in case you can't tell I have terminal ADHD. My original point was instead of like most people I don't get chills I cry. Which made me a target all through school. But as an adult it wasn't so bad. Again I was 2 seconds away from another ramble. So this artist can get me teared up in the blink of a tear-filled eye. I'm sorry I was all over the place today but some things don't get better with age.

[@gee7436]

I, for one, really enjoyed reading you. 😁

[@mymaria888]

Same. Same.

[@methany4404]

By watching your program I: - Listen to good music, - Learn new good bands and singers which sometimes I can never discover, - Learn better about what they act. Thank you for your program.

[@stuartharris4062]

Thanks for this reaction, this performance makes me cry. Kz brilliance. Now you need to complete the trilogy with her version of "Royals" on Singer18. Its completely KZ being wildly herself.

[@magnetman007]

A brilliant reaction. I always learn something watching your reactions! I would encourage you (and anyone else new to KZ) to watch all of her Singer 2018 performances, they are not just good, but “special.” KZ is just one of those rare “once in a lifetime” artist who stylizes her performances in her own unique way. Every single time! She performed a total of 8 times on Singer 2018. React to her cover of “See You Again” next. She pulls another trick out of her “KZ bag!”

[@-R.Gray-]

It's too bad you've already reacted to the Wish Bus "Rolling In The Deep". Her version in this competition was a show stopper, and won the episode (Ep.5). "Say Something" was a last minute thing. The show didn't want her to sing the song she had planned, so she had her guitarist flown in, and I think they had 1 rehearsal. Two other singers worth checking out from Singer 2018 are Hua Chenyu ("Nunchucks", among many good performances), and Tengri ("Heaven") from Inner Mongolia, who showed surprising dynamic control on that song. Also on Singer 2018 was Dimash's guest performance of Lionel Richie's "Hello", which had a surprise in it.

[@yuzumei3197]

Great! You should check her cover of Royals as well. You'll definitely love it.

[@chrismusic193]

ilove kz so much the uniqueness of her voice out of this world

[@paulangelomartinez6459]

If you'd like to hear more of KZ's texture, as well as a quite peculiar talent, you can check out her cover of Close to you

[@JerisEve]

I was thrilled that you mentioned all of "the choices she's making." I love them too, and I think they are a large part of why this performance is so moving. KZ is a very raw singer; she wears her heart on her sleeve. Need to add that Makoy Portado's wonderful work on the guitar here added more to the song than we can say. Hua Chenyu told Jessie J that he thought this was the best performance. She asked if he meant "tonight?" He said, "No. In the whole season." The original of this song was lovely. This is 100x better. After countless hearings, it still makes me cry.

[@creepynoodles8111]

KZ owned this song. That 's saying something since the original was not only sung by A Great Big World, but by Christina Freaking Aguilera.

[@crhu319]

KZ is a genius and for every sing she finds the right and personal attitude and tone.

[@ahleajoy6466]

There's so much more from KZ on that show! Hope u could react on her other covers in the show 💖

[@brittag.pedersen5340]

...lovely KZ ....she is just so talented and amazing. She has such a great voice and is an excellent performer!!! ❤❤❤

[@tcat6133]

This still moves me and I’ve heard this performance many, many times. KZ is world class Her performances in Singer 2018 made her an international favorite! She is an amazing artist!

[@jjchng415]

those crying notes, it gets you when its there, tears rolled down and you cant stop it, it hits you

[@joleykay4469]

Happy new year, Bethany! Thanks for finally reacting to this. I think this is my fave KZ performance on that show. KZ just loves to sing so I am quick everytime I get a notification of her IG live because she sings our requests with that KZ touch.

[@johnangus9154]

Being told at the last minute there was no time to rehearse with the band resulted in this outstanding performance in my view 👌 👏. And don't get me started about her being told to sing a song in Chinese with little notice. Just ❤ her performances.

[@westerntrend]

Oh you should have seen her sang "Rolling in the deep" live on that competition.. Check it out...

[@jemmaimapalomo2602]

You also must watch her Royals performance 😇 God bless you ❤️ much love from Philippines ❤️❤️❤️

[@elizavasquez4171]

She’s one of my favorite singer in the Philippines. I love her voice.

[@catfon10]

Yes, great artists not only stirs our emotions in a certain way but they go further to take you to a place - spellbound :)

[@user-ew6ls7ry1s]

공감.. 이 단어로 밖에 당신을 표현할게 없내요 당신이 길가다 낙엽보면서 눈물을 흘리면 주변사람들도 같이 울거같내요....

[@wrider34]

I think the word you might be looking for is ethereal, at least thats how it felt for me.

[@orville6219]

I love your reaction. Please react to her cover of "Feeling Good" with Jaya. You will see her voice technicalities and it was really amazing specially with Jaya.

[@lucinda2329]

Her performance of ROLLIN THE DEEP ON THE SINGER IS AMAZING.. ❤ ✿❧🌿❧✿ ❤

[@YE.143]

Most beautiful rendition of this song which I have heard.😢

[@unakleet2020]

She only has 2 hours to re arange the song to how it is today a masterpiece indeed better than the original

[@sofiasee4423]

No words or specific adjective how to express this performance so mind blowing love KC

[@kyanshe367]

I love kz!!!❤️🇵🇭🤟

[@mr.a1344]

Even it is very late reaction for this video! It is one of the best reaction that id watched! Not only just listening to music but having a sense of refining every details of the song that only a true vocal coach and singer can explain! 🥰🥰🥰

[@inspiradonogregoriano]

I was waiting for this reaction for months. Thank you!!

[@bernardovillanueva6215]

Thanks!

[@ericsaari2901]

Thanks so much Bethany for coming back to KZ. She's such a talent, and this is one performance I find myself coming back to a lot. It's very beautiful. Was so happy to see your reaction to it. So, you mention loving seeing singers so emotionally invested in what they are singing. Maybe consider coming back to LiSA. Like KZ, I think that's LiSA's superpower. I suggest her First Take performance of Homura, and if you hit CC you'll get subtitles. Hang around for a minute after the song and she talks about it. Anything by Dolores O'Riordian and the Cranberries, too, although I may be bringing a little emotion in from myself, because it's still sad she is gone. Her cover of Go Your Own Way on Europe 2 is pretty amazing. Happy New Year!

[@ricardotamayo5939]

Yes a KZ reaction.... pleasant day to you.....happy new year too....

[@edbarok4619]

This song hit hard for last 2 years that we have travel restrictions.

[@rogerstarkey5390]

KZ with Jaya. Feeling good. Fire. You must attempt a single shot listen or you'll miss the subtleties..... (It's quite short!!)

[@MineCraft-nz9pg]

Wait what? I was thinking about this and u just posted this 2hrs ago ,cut the camera 👀😂 . and if kz doesn't have a vocal cord polyp surgery done to her and she could still hit those 5th octave notes ,she'd be one of the greatest Philippino singers, I mean she is but she'd be more versatile

[@Rosannasfriend]

I think you mean be more technically impressive. High notes and vocal gymnastic. She actually is more versatile than all of your faves in the Philippines. And I say this, as a huge fan of Regine Velasquez, Sarah, Geronimo, Kyla, Jaya, Lani Misalucha, and Katrina Velarde. They’re all amazing women, and they have some versatility to, but KZ has the most creativity and versatility. She is insane!

[@MineCraft-nz9pg]

@@Rosannasfriend Thats what im sayin ,if it wasn't for the limitations in her cords she would rise beyond the clouds ,even higher than the song bird ,the phoenix etc.
