If I am not mistaken, she writes all of her songs and acoustic arrangements.
wow, so crazy talented.
Yes she writes all her songs. She produces plays piano, guitar, and violent as well.
@@MISTERPRIC3TAG19911 I think you meant violin. She's not violent at all that I know of. HEHE! 😉
She's muslim
@@haripahlevi3061 What does this have anything to do with this conversation.
So many people are discovering and reacting to Faouzia and that makes me so happy, she is insanely talented, I can't believe she hasn't broken into the mainstream music industry yet! Loved your reaction and breakdown of her performance 😊
I completely agree! It also amazes me how some songs get hundreds of millions of views and hers doesn't, because she is more than deserving of the recognition.
Most singers who react don’t give us a whole lot of information. This is my first time watching you, and you seem very different. Immediate subscription.
Oh wow, thank you. I feel it necessary to point out what moves me and seems interesting or even out of the ordinary. I'm glad it's informative.
Same here!
I know Im kinda randomly asking but do anybody know of a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Gatlin Wesson i dunno try flixportal. just google after it :P -felix
@Felix Joseph thanks, I went there and it seems to work =) I really appreciate it!
This queen has a voice of an angel, plays the piano, violin and guitar.
She also speaks 3 languages, Arabic, English and French, (i think)
She's also taking engineering in university.
Oh, and she's 20 this year.
She also has never taken singing lessons
@@rdsa1 yup, she's just a natural talent
She writes/produces her songs
@@hikari3184 yea, and I heard she even won a national songwriting competition at 15
@@kalikafran719 she is self taught thats why
The explanation of the melody at the beginning sounded like the musical equivalent of your English teacher analysing a poem and it's meaning
Fun fact: Faouzia is a big Sia fan! :)
I had no idea! But it totally makes sense. Sia is amazing
@@jessicasopranonotes Here you are an amazing Sia live performance from 20 years ago!! Another fun fact - Amy Winehouse was a big fan of this song! I would love to react to it!
Fun fact: everyone is big fan of sia
@@kldhl8283 well, kind of! :))))
Adele too
You are literally the smartest reactor on TH-cam.
☕ Prove me wrong
So sweet!
What can i tell you !Faouzia is out of this world.
She seriously is. I am blown away each time I hear her.
Me as a Pure Baritone here watching a Pure Soprano react to a Pure Alto. I honestly love this song because soon as I put it down an Octave it's my perfect range.
Faouzia is actually a Lyric Mezzo Soprano that might be a Coloratura Mezzo Soprano
Her Vocal range right now is:
C#3 - F#5 - D6
@@josef-1209 thanks for the correction :)
Jess, I've seen a lot of professional reactions but you really blew me away with all the musical theory you provide, no one else does that! Don't mind if I subscribe then, keep it up! :D
Also, I'd really wanna see you react to Shoshana Bean's Broadway Bucket List or her Make It Rain performance - your take would be amazing to hear :)
Thank you Stewie that means the world! And I will definitely write those performances down.
@The Marvelets Elitestan OMG LOVE Toni!
The yoddle runs and riffs she does is based on her Arabian/Eastern ethnicity and knowledge of Arabian Music. In Arabian Music, we have something called the maqan which has quarter tones or notes. That's the half note of a half note basically. All Arab singers use it but only for Arabic songs , she uses the maqam/ micronotes and English which makes it very unique.
Faouzia's voice is so high and beautiful my family and I love the songs
i HAD to sub this video is more than a reaction it’s so educational!
Awe thank you! Much appreciation ☺️
Same here, your explanation is super interesting and you have a great voice too ⭐️☺️
I love your reactions omgg 😂😂😂😍😍😍😍😍😍 ur so good , like the information u have omfg. Next up is How it all works ( stripped)
I second this, her stripped version of 'How It All Works Out' is amazing
Faouzia has a new song coming this Thursday called "Minefields" featuring John Legend! I would love to see your reaction to it when it drops!
Yes so excited for this reaction
I had such a fun time doing this video! Thanks for tuning in ☺️
When someone knows their subject, it can be mesmerizing. Just discovered your channel. Learning so much.
I'm so glad. Welcome! ☺️
Yes girl ! I believe I have the same thoughts as you about this song ! I’ve been in friendship where I was the only one who is gave and gave even if it was hard for me but they didn’t love me at all or even stand with me when I needed them and I had bad mental health with them so that’s why I loved this song and the meaning and the message in it , Cause it’s remind me of how I became stronger and happier after I left them 🤍✨
I'm sorry you had to go through that but more importantly, I'm excited to hear that you came out on the other side with a positive mindset and learned from the situation. That's a hard thing to do!
Soprano Notes thank you I did and I’m proud 💞💞
@Joshua Abraham oh no sweetie u are not the problem they are !! See I know this feeling I had it for 2 years. But I realized that people who deserve you will stay. and until they come I will be the one to heal myself and be happy. ngl to u I still have some problems with making friends but at least I have myself now and I know that I will be a great friend one day. so I hope you will start thinking the same way too. Take care & best wishes
This is the perfect combo... Faouzia and Jess, you can't find anything better. I don't know how many times I have been able to see it, but all of them will seem like a few.
Thank you Jessica, and a big hug from Spain.
Please react to ELON live performence from this same concert :)
I sooooo meant it when I said I would be back if you posted another Faouzia reaction... and ta da!!! Here I am!!! lol ;) I'm so addicted and a true fawn here! Your reaction was ace! I love it when you break down technical aspects that are happening in the song .. that we as listeners don't really understand are happening. I learn so much from your notes! I love your passion for when you hear something great .. and you just let it take you away.. right in front of us. That is just so satisfying! On a side note.. your hair is gorgeous! Also... truly a compliment here.. but I see Kelly Rowland in some of your facial features! :) Keep up the killer reactions beautiful person!!!
Awe, thank you for coming back! You have no idea how much it means to me. And I am so grateful that my videos are resonating with you and many others. People like you keep me motivated to do what I'm doing so a serious thank you to you.
So crazy, a few people have given me the same compliments about Kelly Rowland. She's fabulous so thank you! ♥️
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍 ❤️ Love your comments.... always very intelligent and insightful.
thank you thank you!
6:05, you see how very “in” the story she still is even during that instrumental break. It’s like she saying “you just wait right here, I’mma give it to you!”.
YES 👏🏾 I always noticed that moment. So glad you pointed it out!
Sisssss. I love your reacts. I really appreciate the explanations of her techniques. Please do more Faouzia. She's a QUEEN.
Thank you and of course!
You're ability to translate the music into a story is remarkable and so insightful for me. Thank you!
Faouzia is just another breed of excellence and pure talent!!!
I couldn't agree more!
@@jessicasopranonotes also is it bad I've had this version of Tears of Gold on repeat for literally the last 2 weeks, bearing in mind it's on from like 6AM to whenever I go to sleep so like 3/4 AM?
@@JudeM3591 and absolutely not!! We all LIVE for Faouzia
@@jessicasopranonotes tru dat, tru dat.
I really appreciate you breaking down the theory in this. You're incredibly knowledgeable about music theory and that is a refreshing take on these reactions! Cant wait for the next one!!!
Hello! Nice to meet you and thank you so much for the compliments!
Omg I listened to this song a hundred times but never really saw how genius this all is thanks to your reaction 😮😍😍👌💯👍
This makes me happy! ☺️🤗
you are a gifted person Soprano Notes. You translate how we ordinary folk feel when listening to Fouzias voice into words. I have been going YES YES EXACTLY the entire time , subscribe !
Thank you Ahmed! That seriously put a smile on my face. Much needed ☺️
@@jessicasopranonotes I'm happy that your happy ! :) God bless , a fan from Abu Dhabi. Take care.
I love her reactions because she makes me even more amazed by Faouzia
I have to say... I've only seen a couple of your reactions, but the way you break down a song reminds me of poetry explication. The way you break down the feelings, intentions and emotions created by the phrasing, note choices and all takes me back to my English 1020 class and breaking down famous works of poetry. I didn't enjoy that in school, but the way you describe it, I absolutely love.
I've been sticking to Foauzia ever since she put her first video of This Mountain and I'm just so happy to see her grow so quickly and her talent being appreciated
I agree, I am so glad that she is getting the recognition she deserves. I hope she goes very far with her career and aspirations.
I LOVE that you reacted to Faouzia! She is so underrated as an artist and vocalist. She is pure talent! Lovely video, can’t wait for the next one!
I'm so glad I came across her on TH-cam. She is amazing!
New sub because I love how you explain the theory of the music. Not many reactors explain the theory of music. So thank you for taking the time to explain it.
Ok, after watching a few videos you've done, can I just say how GREAT it feels to relate to someone "nerd out" over music? I'm always embarrassed discussing music with nonmusical friends because it feels like they just don't understand it (or hear it) in the same way. For that, a huge THANK YOU!
My new favourite music reaction channel, subscribed ♥
Thank you ☺️☺️
This got me started down the music theory TH-cam path. Heheh
I absolutely love how you dissect the intricacies of her angelic voice and masterful techniques. And watching those “ear-gasm” moments is so relatable
😅😇🙏🏻💜
Yes! I get so many good feelings when I listen to her voice
This was one of my favorite analysis of Faouzia. Great video!
Thank you!
Your note on the unresovled ending is just...marvelous
pause at 7:56
exact impression of all of our faces while listening to faouzia
haha love this!
YESSSSS finally someone who looks at things below the surface and between the lines!! Subscribed.
Seeing your reaction for the first time. Though i am not a music nerd but i understood almost everything. The way you explain each and every small details is amazing. Loved your work and yeah love faouzia. Subscribed mate. Xoxo
It's the best thing to hear that what I am saying makes sense to those who may not know all of the music vocabulary so thank you!
Hola Jess, ya casi no sé ni qué decir, me has agotado todas las palabras, todos los adjetivos similares a maravilloso ya los he dicho y no quisiera ser repetitivo. Ahora lo único que me queda es recomendar en todas las ocasiones que pueda, que vean tus videos y que la gente empiece a saber qué es un buen video de análisis de una canción.
Lo he dicho más de una vez, eres, de lejos, la mejor.
Un enorme aplauso
Honest opinion :
your analyzing skills are mind blowing
Thank you!
I love your way of explaning and your expression of emotions!!! Thanks!!!
You're very welcome!
Love your reviews and how you break down and analyze each song. I felt like I received a little theory class on musical composition in this one. Loved it! Awesome!
Oh, thank you ☺️ I was a huge music theory nerd in school. It feels like math to me and I love math lol. So glad you found it informative!
@@jessicasopranonotes music theory is lowkey highkey underrated. Like the theory we covered in GCSE music was bomb.
@@JudeM3591 Oh nice! I'm already graduated but when I have the time I want to sign up for a theory and musicianship class just to keep up with it.
@@jessicasopranonotes honestly same but that's gonna be like 9 years time. I need to finish my current college course in health and social care and then go to Uni to do an undergrad in psychology and then a masters in psychotherapy first but music will always be a passion.
@@JudeM3591 That's awesome! Good luck on all your journeys through school!
You’re such a reactor! I like your video, i really like the way you explain all theses thunes un music that i don’t know, what makes what i hear much deeper. Thanks
Your conversation on friendships and reciprocity is spot on what a wonderful way of articulating it. And I have to say this is the first time that I've heard her saying I am completely taken by her and will support her career by buying her music absolutely Thank you so much.
This song is in any probably thinkable way a masterpiece!!
Holy crap man, you have some very cool insights. Subbed for sure, so glad I found you. Cheers (p.s. Faouzia is perfect)
Thank you and welcome ☺️
New subscriber from New Zealand 👋🏽 love your vids, so informative!!
Hello! Have always thought about living in New Zealand! Welcome and so glad to have you ☺️
I like how you observe her emotion with the song..it's so detailed and accurate.. hmmm actually.. i love you for that.. Sana all!
She's really incredible and makes my job of reacting fun and soooo exciting ☺️
I love that u give a reaction on both the physical nd emotional aspects of her singing most of ppl forget about how the emotions of the singer actually adds so much depth to the song it self.
Yes yes yes! Anyone can sing but not everyone can tell a story. Great point!
Both of you are really amazing I learned alot from you, you opened my mind more not only to music but the story behind the song and it's comparison to money, I never really thought of it that way so thank you for showing this point of view❤️
I'm glad I was able to show you a different perspective. Thanks for leaving such a kind comment 💛
Your portion on bad friends was great. And i love the authentic reaction and follow up explanations. Subscribed !
Jess, I've seen many reactions to this video but none of them like yours, I love how you talk about these details that adds so much to the song and we don't even realize
Big fan of opera , faoizia and now you💜
Hello! Nice to meet you and happy to have you 💛
I love the way you analyze everything about the song
So knowledgeable and articulate ! Instant subscription !
subscribed! I love the way you react and analyze. I learnt a lot!
Awesome, thank you for subscribing!
Amazing analysis!!
yay i was waiting for another faouzia reaction🤩Please keep reacting to her🤍🙌🏻
Fun Fact : Faouzia writes her own songs 😅
OMG your breakdown is so intricate im over listening to Tears of Gold again because of you! More breakdowns please! ❤️
Also Faouzia is incredibly underrated! She is a phenomenal singer AND songwriter.
Thank you for watching and supporting! I'm excited for the reactions I have coming up so stay tuned ☺️
I immediately subscribed, you’re the best reaction video I’ve seen so far. ❤️✨
I love how positive you are with yourr reactions. Faouzia is truly a gifted songwriter, and if she wrote the piano arrangement, even more respect from me. That's amazing, and in the best way possible.
i love that, even though you sing opera, you listen to other genres. I think it's a misconception that opera singers don't like, much less listen to, pop, or other non-classical genres. I know that's an awful, awful stereotype or assumption, and I'm truly sorry for having made it, or for thinking others have as well.
My hat's off to you. The little I heard of your singing was very good. Generally, I have to be in the mood for opera, but I have the deepest respect for what you guys do, the control it takes to produce such vocals.
The music theory was exciting! It's refreshing to hear some of it mentioned. I sadly don't remember most of what I learned in college, but I loved it so very much, so it's awesome to come across it in videos, reaction and otherwise.
:)
omg how did I miss this comment?! So so nice thank you! I LOVE opera but I did not grow up listening to this genre. I didn't even know it existed. I was heavily influenced by pop, r&b, jazz, gospel, and hip hop. So, whenever I'm not studying opera I'm listening to these genres. Crazy enough, I never thought to analyze this music like we do for classical. It's a lot of fun and I am so glad you're getting something out of it. 🤗 Thank you for your compliments!
This is the best reaction of any Faouzia song that I have ever watched. You were so detailed and clear and explaining how the music works and you are so passionate about it. If you haven’t yet, I think Bad Dreams or 100 Band AIDS would be a good songs to react to next
Love this comment, and thank you for the recommendations ☺️
YOU ARE SO UNDERRATED!!! PERIODTTT
Your reviews are always so thought provoking, well explained and passionate- I love it!
Your reaction was so informative! As a music nerd, I loved it 😊
From one music nerd to another, we're awesome lol. Nice to meet you! ☺️
Yoooo your take on the unresolved ending was EXACTLY what I originally thought and for you to just catch that! DAMN. Subbed so damn fast. I'm going to politely ask you to react to her entire library of just as exquisite songs. LOL
I hadn't picked up on the ending's significance, but it makes perfect sense, and was really powerful when explained! I am so there.
You are very insightful in your analysis ,,iam impressed .subscribed .
Today I found your channel and I'm fascinated by your comprehensive reactions. It's great to learn something new. Thank you!
You're very welcome Alexa!
Such an informative reaction.
Can I say how pretty you look. You are an amazing person and you broke this down so well. ❤️
i came for Faouzia, i subscribed because your insight is absolutely phenomenal and i need more!!
Your reaction is so brilliant.... I listen to it over and over and over again. Insightful, knowlegible and captivating. 👍
Hope you do more.
Such sweet words, thank you! I've been on a hiatus for the last week because I lost my voice, but as soon as it's better, I've got some great reactions coming ☺️
@@jessicasopranonotes 👍 Take care.... Wishing you a speedy recovery from 🇨🇦
The little things that you have pointed, I wouldn't notice. You are awesome!
Even most of the vocal coaches don’t explain the videos the way you are doing. That’s why I really like your videos, well done.
Great reaction! Now I understand the song better
Great reaction & breakdown.
Goosebumps
This was a great analysis of the music written as well as the vocals, ♥️♥️♥️ that so much. Other vocal voaches don't usually delve that deep into the music, GREAT REVIEW and I look forward to more
Thank you so much!
Yes ma’am! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love your reaction ♥
this is the kind of reaction Iv'e been waiting...❤️
Faouzia is a classically trained pianist. Plays the violin and guitar. Listen to her stripped versions at the piano. Mind blowning. One thing she never had voice lessons.
And by the way: It was very precise dissected by you!
I have to, I HAVE TO, I HAVE TO subscribe to you! The way you pick up on the smallest things is just immaculate! Things I didn’t even hear and you just catch it first hearing.
Thank you!!
God! I just discovered your channel, and it's so freakin' good! Perfect analyzing...I cant'stop watching. XD
You're awesome! Such detail makes myself learn more as a music student, thank you so much 💯
That's amazing! And you're very welcome. I hope your studies are going well ☺️
@@jessicasopranonotes thank you so much
ELON that comes after the credits of this show is incredible. In many of the single versions of these same songs she also plays the piano.
Your reaction’s a lovely mix of intellect and personality. Best wishes for your channel ♡
I’ve watched a lot of different Faouzia reactions and you are definitely one of my favorites! I love all the extra information you give us and you really make me see things from a different perspective. You should definitely check out: Born without a heart (stripped), Bad dreams (live from q on cbc) and Elon (live).
I will and thank you! ☺️
Wow. Really great video! Never done any music theory before, but your explanations were still easy to follow. Felt like I learned to appreciate the song even more.
You have a great voice and I loved all the information you gave with this reaction video. I love Faouzia's voice and you gave it more meaning than most reaction videos I have watched, Thank you and you have a new subscriber. 💖
I'm glad my video was helpful 💛
5:10 the comparison you used. I love how you saw it so much... I loved listening to you explaining this. You're the music teacher we all want!!
Also 8:55 I LOVE YOUR VIEWS OH GOD
amazing reaction booo!
Thank you!
Thank you for the detailed deconstruction of structures and music choices. This a very different approach from other reactors - in a very good way. I wonder though how music theory ties in with a self-taught talent composing such a song - is this just her talent and musical sensibility that finds effective techniques of expression, or of being receptive to other musicians that she admires and acquiring influences from others ? i.e. is a talented composer/musician/singer a creator who rediscovers approaches or more of an re-arranger who amalgamates different sources ?
Thats such a great question. If I'm honest, I find it mostly to be the former. Her talent and musical sensibilities that finds effective techniques and expressions. I find it hard to believe that she would be sitting down saying to herself that singing on 4 instead of 3 would sound interesting and dissonant. I feel her emotions and her natural abilities in singing and writing would lead her to these types of compositions. It just so happens to come out extremely interesting because she's got a gift. But a very thought-provoking conversation.
@@jessicasopranonotes I've caught glimpses of past short videos on her channel where she showcases songs that are "work in progress" - so very open & brave of her. One can then see changes to the finished song that comes out some time later, but these are with full band & studio production so difficult to directly compare. It has therefore been such a pleasure to see her "stripped" versions of all her main songs which I generally prefer, and then this stripped concert with a pianist allowing her to concentrate more fully on her singing & performance.
This is my first video on your channel and I'm here for all of them. I love the reaction and them learnings hahaha. I appreciate your effort :>
Hello and welcome! I'm glad you found my videos entertaining 😊
