      While we're at it - let's give the production crew some shine. Oh, also, the cleaning crew that keeps the Church clean. Let's not forget the construction crew that built the Church. How about some shine for the band playing the music. Oh - almost forgot - how about some SHINE for the choir, the camera man, and Craft services that catered the video shoot and kept everyone's tummies full of delicious food and drink.

    The story behind so much of Yebba's music is heartbreaking, but the way she infuses the yearning she has for her late mother into her songwriting is as spiritually annointed as it is technically superb, and hauntingly poetic. When you look across the current musical landscape and look at the quality of output from today's young creatives, it's clear Yebba will be an artist for the ages.

    Just taking the time to credit the backup singers AND Yebba herself for having background singers in the first place. It’s a dying profession (people tend to just re-record themselves singing backup parts) and severely underappreciated. Having multiple talented people supporting the lead singer really adds to the sound. ❤

  • @abasslinelow
    @abasslinelow 4 ปีที่แล้ว +572

    That extra beat in the chorus after the second "wait for me", the "yeah yeah yeah" bit... such a small little detail, but that timing syncopation is simply spectacular. Little details like that help set Yebba apart in such a clever and brilliant way. I feel like so many good singers are emulating the sound of the times, but Yebba is comfortable bringing her whole self to her music, and the uniqueness really shines through. Subtle, but unignorable. She conveys the mood of her songs like few I've ever heard. Amazing song, amazing vocalist, engaging performer... you rock hard, Yebba!

  • @TheArtistKnownAsLenaJ71

    To this day this song haunts me and gives me absolute delight at the same time! I became a fan of YEBBA the year my mother would pass away in the Summer of 2022. I loved "Evergreen" instantly ( before this version I had been a fan of the one by Barbara Streisand) I became a fan for life when my daughter explained to me that it was not a song of heartbreak for a lover OR unrequited love but rather a heart-wrenching tribute to her Mother who had taken her own life. So I will always be reminded of three things when I hear this: the heartache of losing my own Mom to Cancer...the heartache of a male friend that I was falling in love with but respectfully can never have...DTP....and my unbreakable bond with my daughter who always knows what to say or play for me somehow when I'm in my feelings....my own 'Evergreen".
