You're most welcome Carolyn, I'm glad you enjoyed it! 🙏 No need to apologise for I know how relocation goes, it's a huge job. All the very best with it! 😊❤
*"LOVE IS A GIFT" - A priceless and valuable gift to cherish! ❤😊* This was such a beautiful love song sung by Olivia (R.I.P) 🕊 and Anthony, who I think of as two kindred spirits. For they shared a really lovely friendship having been there to support each other during their cancer battles. 💖💚 There was no denying the chemistry they had in this performance, for you could feel their warmth and genuine connection. I loved the range and tone in Olivia's vocals for while it was soft and angelic, there were moments when she went up into her higher register and showed her power and control. While Anthony's vocals were as technically brilliant as ever for he is a classically trained lyric baritone. I also think he has the ability to effortlessly capture the emotion of a song like very few artist's can, not too dissimilar to John. I had the privilege of seeing Anthony perform in Phantom of the Opera as "The Phantom" and he blew me away, for he was mesmerising. Overall Olivia and Anthony's performance was truly captivating, for it made me smile and it touched my heart. Although Olivia no longer being here to bless us with her sweet voice did make me shed a tear. That's why these videos are so special for they provide us all with so many memories to treasure. 🥰 *"HELP" - Reach out your hand to someone in need! ❤* I thought this was our best chance of getting a live performance of "Help" for as we know the MSO version got copyrighted. And given this song followed Love is a Gift I was hoping for that reason it would slip through and not get blocked by YT. As for John's performance of The Beatles cover "Help", I think the arrangement and the emotion in his vocals speak for themselves. Anthony and John are great friends so for him to come in at the end just seemed right, for me it was the icing on the cake. If I were to take part of the title from the previous song then "John is a Gift"!!! He's a one of a kind artist and human being who has stood the test of time having transcended generations with his gift of an amazing voice ("The Voice"). Not to mention his countless amazing live performances which have touched us all, and will remain in our hearts forever! 🥰 Thank you Vakasa for a wonderful reaction, for I'm glad you enjoyed the songs as much as I did. Although I must say the lyrics and your thoughts on these songs did get me a little emotional, but happy as well. There are so many great performances from The Main Event which I think the entire concert is worth reacting to at some point. I hope you have a great day, take care with much love and blessings. 😊🙏❤
Oh such gorgeous words Heidi. Yes listening to Olivia's beautiful voice and seeing her smile makes me miss her even more and then I feel for John and Anthony having a true best friend. Thanks Heidi for reminding me of this double song set. ❤🎉😊
Hey Heidi great choice for a reaction to these three Aussie icons and you were spot on with everything you said. John is so incredible live it’s scary. I’ve heard people say and would definitely agree when they have said John sounds better live than most artists in the studio. I think he sounds better live than he or anyone does in the studio, and remember a lot of the performances we’ve seen from John are mostly prior to mid 90’s, before auto tune and all the wizardry that could be done in the background. With what you see is what you get, or hear in this case, there’s no, oh can we start that again or tricks they can do with technology today, simply amazing.
@@AussieDebbThank you Debbie that means a lot. 🙏😊 I'm also very happy that you enjoyed it too! I believe given John, Olivia and Anthony were such true friends it made the entire concert even more special, for their connection with each other was magical! 🥰 Take care and have a great night Debbie. 😊❤
@@beresfordthompson1370Thank you Dean you're most welcome. 🙏❤ I also wholeheartedly agree that John is even better live than in the studio. While John will always convey an exceptional level of emotion whether he sings live or in the studio, it's his face you get to see in a live that says so much. For his eyes truly reveal the genuine love that he has for us, his fans. Also those twinkling eyes will invite you in and take you on a journey where he has your heart and captivates you to the end. That look can't be faked for the eyes don't lie. Also seeing John live you get the ad libs, jokes and the tricks which always make it one hell of a show. You're also correct Dean for John didn't need any auto tune and all that wizardry, because John was the "wizard". His voice is the auto tune that never falters. Maybe even a freak of nature or both! Take care and have a great night Dean. 😊❤
You're so right VK - you can get feelings just from his entrance and his smile and charisma. This is yet another version by him. The power and yes, the aura and the love just oozes out of him. ❤️❤️
Beautiful reaction Vakasa 😊❤ I am a few days behind on this one but to quote the film Liar Liar, "I'm late, but I made it" 😅 What a wonderful video for celebrating your 21 months of sobriety. Thank you Heidi. Much love to you my friend 🫂 ❤❤ Fantastic breakdown and advice as always. Do what is best for you. You deserve to achieve your dreams and do it the way you want. Take care. Moving onto the next video. Catch you again soon 😊 🙏❤❤
Wonderful reaction and breakdown of the performances Vakasa, and what a great request Heidi, this entire event was awesome. The Olivia and Anthony duet was so so good, Olivia’s voice sounded so magical like when she first started out so to hear her beautiful voice in such pristine condition was so great and such a beautiful song also. I have always loved Anthony warlow’s voice but have only ever heard him do opera, which is no surprise because he’s an opera singer but to hear it like this, idk how to explain it, like a more normal tone or something was incredible. His voice in this genre was amazing, which shouldn’t be a surprise because he is so talented anyway. Vakasa you’re correct that every time John does “help” live its always a little different than others, it’s like well today I feel like doing it this way, next time another, depends on what I feel like on the night. Whatever the case may be, when ever John sings his arrangement of this classic song it’s going to be awesome. I hope you can and are able to do the version of this song on my list because he does the Beatles version and his version back to back so make for a great comparison. All the best to you Heidi and hope things are going ok for you ATM and congratulations to you Vakasa on your journey without addiction.
Thank you so much Dean I knew you would enjoy it! 🙏😊 I loved reading your comment and you're absolutely spot on Dean. Yes Olivia's voice was most definitely "magical", for it was as warm as her heart. I also admired the way Olivia always carried herself with such grace and dignity, for she will never be forgotten! 💖 I wish you luck with the version from Chain Reaction where John does The Beatles followed by his arrangement. Given the MSO got copyrighted, that one will definitely get blocked too. That's why I said to you in a previous comment that I would send this version for I thought this had the best chance of going through. So now we've done Help three times! I had a specialist appointment last Thursday and unfortunately it didn't go well. Sadly my condition continues to head in the wrong direction, with the likelihood according to my specialist that it will go back into remission very slim to not at all. He asked me if I still had private health insurance and if it was up to date, so that says it all damn it! I'll leave it there for now for you know how it is Dean. Like me you look after yourself too Dean and I'll catch you soon. 😊🙏❤
The version of help you requested is almost guaranteed to get copyrighted. Anything close to the original always will. The Beatles foundation is tight on copyrights. Thank you for your comment and for watching. I appreciate you. Hope that things are going well and you have had a good week. Much love and blessings always 🙏🖤
@@AussieDebb Aww thank you Debbie for your kind words it means so much ❤ Some days are harder than others but I'm hanging in there! Take care Debbie with much love and blessings. 😊🙏❤
