Voice Teacher Reaction to So Hyang (소향) - Misty | Begin Again Korea (비긴어게인 코리아)

[@t.lucalake8963]

So Hyang was again recovering from one of her numerous bouts with pneumonia, during her time on Begin Again Korea - mini concert series. She indicated she was operating at less than 50% vocal capabilities.

[@scorn8679]

Sometimes I am surprised that she is just one person, A variety of ambience, wide vocal range, really amazing I am also more comfortable with her understated voice.

[@scorn8679]

wow, I loved hearing your voice and vocals too. I was amazed at the moment and listened again and again

[@첼린져-j1b]

소향의 보컬은 이미 모든 장르를 뛰어 넘었습니다.

[@daveg.6820]

Valerie, thanks so much for doing another Sohyang video. I'm 85 and, unless my memory is failing, Sohyang added none of her usual embellishments, but executed Ella Fitzgerald's rendition of "Misty" faithfully. I know almost all of Sohyang's music and she often shows respect for original artists. For example, she performs "I Will Always Love You" closely following Dolly Parton's original rendition (except that, having no band, she actually sings the Saxophone solo 🙂). Thanks again. Cheers.

[@armenoid2278]

Sohyang has the range, musicality and talent to literary sing any genre. She is a once in a generation vocalist. Good to see you back reacting to her, its been a long time.

So Hyang beautiful

[@joandsarah77]

Sohyang is always performing, she has no shortage of engagements. This was on Begin Again Korea 2020 and she was on 6 out of the 9 shows. Then she was on some more BAK in 2021. Hard to remember what year she did what, but she sang the official song for the summit on the environment, put out at least 2-3 new songs, did the sound track for the Lost Ark RPG game, did numerous duets, sang at open concerts, sang at church events, sang more OST's for K dramas. She sang Arirang Alone on King Singer, appeared on Immortal Songs 2 again and lately has been writing new Christian songs and singing them with Petra.

[@stevenmeyer9674]

It was so much fun watching her perform with the younger performers. She looked to be having just a really great time. I specially loved her rapping on Day Day..

[@jungwanpark5912]

wow....

[@yanki198]

so hyang is a perfect jazz singer, what can't this vocal goddess do? does everything, the korean queen goddess

[@markhansen7998]

And the Woman raps...Day, Day from Begin Again Korea as well illustrated her commitment to excellence.

[@jinjade7189]

I really genuinely think Sohyang should give us a jazz album. I need some more.

[@peppy3100]

음절 사이를 끌어가며 연결 하는 째즈 특성을 음절 하나하나 놓이지도 단 한번의 음이탈없이 딱딱 집어내며 부를수 있는 곡이 아닌데 하아아 소향님 정말... 신이주신 달란트 아름답습니다 그리고 보컬 코치님의소향님의 노래에 대한 해석 정말 감사합니다

[@unimind8106]

Best of Best ~

[@Hopefully_Sohyang]

beautiful ~~~~

[@가이-x9u]

It's nice to hear Sohyang's reaction again. She has been doing a lot of activities until recently.

[@sonitus1160]

long time no see. Welcome again!!!!

[@sushisin377]

It been a while seeing you watch Sohyang sing. If you like slow jazzy music from her, go watch her sing "Sweet dreams, my dear" on MV in Korean version.

[@auraleeum]

god....god...

[@greatmusicdilettante6405]

Me: My favorite vocalist of all time, Sohyang, "killed" one of my favorite songs of all time! I can die happily now. Also me: On second thought, hold my horses. First, she needs to "massacre" all the great 80s rock songs, a la her rendition for "Monalisa" on KOMS. Only then I can die without regret. Sohyang (some time in the future): Hold my non-alcoholic beer.

[@Chaeyingubbang]

소향은 장르를 가리지않고 다재다능하며 음악성은 엄청 납니다. World best

[@Peter-yj8fj]

Always in my top ten songs and Sohyang did in beautifully she has the perfect delicacy in her voice to perform this, I've been asking everyone to react to this and not many have which is a pity because it shows that she doesn't need to go big to be amazing.

[@천재-o9o]

[@xers999]

The last part where sings with breathy tone just melts your heart.

[@thadiusplug7666]

God this woman is sublime....jazz is so subtle and fluid...its nuance of emotion is genius.....this woman takes the song and puts her fluidity of honest emotion on it.......in a continuous stream of devastating.....well you know, you saw the tears

[@thadiusplug7666]

well the edit wouldn't....Sarah V sang this song and it was genius...omg stuff...her art dripped all over me....but this....this is on a another level. it is not art for art sake it is the art of emotion

[@hyuk-jinjung4599]

Absolutely amazing!!

[@현지호-o8r]

She breathes life into the words she sings. I feel every word and note she sings. I listen to her song with ears but my hearts are crying.

[@awesomedays8581]

i think this is great It feels like walking on clouds.

[@hrey5fh.rkipwq0]

Thank you for the Wonderful reaction~♡💜

[@chanmanv]

This version of Misty showing off her understanding of jazz tonality and tastefulness is what elevates her above all of the other elite singers. There's just so much musicality at the end of phrases and little slides that gives you constant chills. Great reaction! 👍

[@jinaqkrtjdrb32]

💕🥰🥰🥰💗💗💗 👍👍👍👍😅😅 we love your true fantastic reaction. very thanks.🙏💜👍👍💕💕🥰

[@Sfendo63]

Masterful performance, gentle and passionate with respect to the original. One of her most beautiful renditions. 👍👍🤏👏👏👏

[@이태리때타울]

Her voice is art!!! 😱

[@sushisin377]

Another recommendation to watch Sohyang with Min Woohyuk sing Wild Flower on Immortal Songs in 2022.

[@zxcvbnm-c6o]

🥰👍

[@davef.6803]

Great analysis of this beautiful lady. Kim So Hyang is my favorite singer and I believe one of the best on the planet. Check out her duet from this 2020 Begin Again Korea series with Lee Suhyun of the song 'Flashlight'. Their harmonies are out of this world. And her masterpiece 'Everyone' is a clinic in great singing. But be sure to find a version with English subtitles for the best experience. Cheers!

[@henry-kb1yj]

WOW!!!😁 Long time no see, sir. 😅 It's Sohyang reaction.😍 very nice reaction...3:24 kill point😅 This song is Sohyang jazz legend...👍 Thank you.👏👏👏

[@melmel075]

check out her own song Stay, not quite jazz (i dont think) but kind of close

[@JH-oj4hw]

I heard this song in her concert once!! It sounded pretty much different from the sound in this video.. Her voice.. can't explain..

[@tommyo2450]

Im sorry but that is how you sing it... Perfection..

[@user-st3727ytyrfuqd1]

so beautiful ❤

[@재호-r7c]

awsome

[@yejulove1725]

Her voice is so lovely.😍Sohyang~😍

[@jinpark1862]

thanks for joyful and authentic reactions

[@Dtagcity]

Love this! Easily among my fav So Hyang performances. The atmosphere she creates here is so, so serene and sublime.

[@Mickey-cetr5yc]

Like 👍As always, thanks for the great analysis. song I Love ❤️🔥💯

[@HK_K]

😍😍😍😍😍😍💕💕💕

THX’s Valerie ♥️ love you/channel! Appreciate your heartfelt analysis & commentary on this SoHyang video ♥️

💖💖💝

[@ley766]

I m dead.

[@tookleleng]

That’s why you’re one of my Voice Teacher favorite reactors because of your very sincere comments. Thanks for reacting to Misty. I have another one but not Jazzy it’s the “US National Anthem”: kzbin.info/www/bejne/baipZpuQj55kaZY

[@sushisin377]

(Sohyang) - 'Til You Love Me Again' Live Clip - new song

[@pjqi48k3ei]

Based on the fact that it was her premiere and her lung and health condition were very bad back then, a performance 10 months ago at a small place right in front of quite a few fans oh hers is worth listening to. That was similar to the stuff here but closer to the perfection I imagine.

[@Dani-jv5fe]

Es imposible cantar mejor. En el mejor de los casos quizá igualar, pero mejor absolutamente nadie.

[@cristy4742]

Dear Ma'am Valerie, I'm guessing your favorite is the version of Johnny Mathis because it's my favorite too. No offense to Ms. Sohyang but Johnny Mathis voice is so romantic and puts you in the mood.

[@oahuhawaii2141]

Jazz pianist Erroll Louis Garner composed his standard "Misty" as an instrumental in 1954, and released a recording that year. Lyricist John Francis Burke added lyrics in 1955. Jazz vocalist Dakota Staton was the first to record the song in 1957. Many other singers have recorded the song since then: Sarah Lois Vaughan, 1958; John Royce "Johnny" Mathis, 1959; Ella Jane Fitzgerald, 1960; ... Sohyang sings "Misty" in the style of Fitzgerald.

[@ghdijkzon7192]

hello valerie, i have a request for you, maybe you can comment on : bouke and the elvis matters band, this group won a competition called battle of the bands in the netherlands, even if you are not an elvis fan, this band gives you goosebumps they are that good, I faithfully watch all your videos and always enjoy your big smile, greetings from hanneke

[@satyabhargav1145]

loved the reaction and I really hope u react and analyse a singer "YIM JAE BEUM" (he is a Korean legendary rock ballad singer debuted in 1986 & a year ago he came back to the stage after 6 year hiatus from 2016 -22) & he is also in the new season of Begin again Intermission(season 6) & he is known as one of the top Korean singers ever. Sohyang also covered one of his songs " Where are You" -- Yim Jae Beum " 여러분 (Everyone) " live performance kzbin.info/www/bejne/o5PUZXx_lKqCrKc ( this song is also covered by sohyang ) -- Yim Jae Beum " 살아야지 (Huh? Live and let live)" live performance on begin again as duet with HYNN kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWLUeYCOa9eqmbs -- Yim Jae Beum " Father picture " on begin again kzbin.info/www/bejne/sJeuqJehhJaqaqM -- Yim Jae Beum " The Flight " live on begin again kzbin.info/www/bejne/onKVqoGwpM97e80 -- Yim Jae Beum "Desperado " live performance kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5-vY2uvpZKFhtk

[@dianaroman4944]

Please react to Gigi Delana's cover of Unholy by Sam Smith. Shes an amazing singer with a live band the GG Vibes. Thanks.

[@ilzelia4383]

Reaja ao Gabriel Henrique com a musica don't stop belivien

[@아침고요-g4g]

리액션 추천곡 신청합니다 소향님이 미국으로 행사로 인해 출국하기 앞서 국내(한국)팬 앞에서 미리 들여주셨던 곡 미국국가 “별이 빛나는 깃발(The Star-Spangled Banner” 동시대의 최고의 가창력을 보여주셨던 영상이라 생각됩니다. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oX3NfnpmgpuJock

[@oahuhawaii2141]

Her duet partner in "Flashlight" (kzbin.info/www/bejne/ooTdk2mXZbWeh7c), 이수현 (Lee, Su-hyun), cries near the end of the song.

[@pglover64]

Enjoyed your analysis as well as your singing. I think, correction, I know you will enjoy this next female Korean artist. Her name is Taeyeon singing “When We Were Young”. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aoGanYh7idR8h7M

[@pglover64]

Hello Valerie, I have a question that I would like to ask you about another Korean vocalist? Her name is Park Ki Young! I think she is amazingly talented with an incredible voice, but I have read in comments where some do not like her because they say her technique is not correct. Then there are other’s like myself that think she is right at the top with SoHyang. BTW, she and SoHyang are very good friends if that tells you anything about her talent level. There are many songs of hers that you should listen to but first listen to her rendition on “Nella Fantasia” then next listen to her singing jazz. Tell me what you think! kzbin.info/www/bejne/hIWugKyLjLeCbdE kzbin.info/www/bejne/Y5rMYpmha8ycd68

[@charliechong2763]

It's good but I don't believe the story shes telling ?no story telling it just becomes something one can forget.

[@linzigrogan6844]

Are you on drugs?

[@slimbikr]

Introspective prospective??? You mean too lazy to perfect a performance. Unless you’re jaco p. Pretty hard to convince listeners of your points. Sorry not for me.

[@steveheckle8847]

It's such a pity that the mainstream has so many skeletons plaguing the industry due to being drink and drug infested so called artists, not to mention that there are too many self obsessed attention seeking Divas, this is one of the reasons that SOHYANG and MORISSETTE AMON LAMAR have given it a wide berth, they have both had big opportunities to expand their music careers but due to the toxic antics of many mainstream artists it's a no from them, now these are the only two genuine ARTISTS in the industry that many people will never get to know about, maybe if the industry decides to get rid of the dregs of society things might change 🇬🇧👌🔥❤️.
