The three of them create a sound that is absolutely perfect for irresistible sirens. It’s incredibly beautiful. These artists are individually among the finest at their craft, and as is not always true, together they are even better
A friend insisted on taking me to the movie when it came out - but first, we had to listen to the music (a documentary? I don't remember). I was stunned. I'd never cared much for country, but all of this music - and this song in particular - became permanent favorites. Just stunning.
There is the soundtrack album. But, yes, there is also a documentary film, *Down from the Mountain* (2000), of a benefit performance at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, that was put on even before *O Brother, Where Art Thou* (2000) debuted. That documentary is what the clip here is from.
@@Ernwaldo Thank you. I'm pretty sure we went to see the documentary, but it didn't seem logical that a documentary would have been available prior to the film. Now it makes sense.
@@Aurora-cv5to You’re very welcome. Very cool to hear about your experience. Thanks for sharing! I am not exactly certain which film was _technically_ released first (both in 2000), just that the concert was held before *O Brother Where Art Thou* was released in cinemas. I had copies of both (& the soundtrack album) until someone I could never recall borrowed my copy of the concert & never returned it. 😖 Hope you continue to enjoy!
Alison is so good, and with Union Station, her band, featuring greats like Ron Block, Dan Tyminski (who actually sang for George Clooney in the movie) and dobro prodigy Jerry Douglas, her live performances are faultless.
She's worth the time to listen to. Here's a duet with Brad Paisley...th-cam.com/video/CPon1IMgQc8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=D5azyXEG20kfaMMQ Here's another song... th-cam.com/video/2UYySy4ad2Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NlOX2uYSowbNDUup
And she's versatile. She has a few pieces with Yoyo Ma (a classical cellist)that are delightful, and two albums with Robert Plant (80s rock and roller) that are admittedly unusual, but I find enjoyable.
A more modern women's trio is I'm With Her. (Sara Watkins, Aofie O'Donovan, and Sarah Jarosz). They were considered a Folk and Bluegrass supergroup that formed about 2014, and they will still perform together ocassionally, but each has excellent solo work and success with other groups. They won 2 Grammys in '20 with the song Call My Name. They have incredible harmonies also, and any of their songs would be great to react to, but Call My Name at the Kennedy Center is fantastic. Actually any song from their performance at the Kennedy Center is a delight.
You could do a reaction of each song from that movie, and I would enjoy them all. Every single song is a masterpiece. Great songwriting and outstanding performances on all of them. And I'm not even a big country, western and folk fan.
Emmy Lou Harris' performance with The Band on Evangeline is stunning. And all her work on The Trios with Dolly Parton and Linda Somerset is a masterpiece.
Mixed stage monitors at a Louisville, KY bluegrass festival in 1980. Emmylou Harris was the headliner with a then unknown Ricky Skaggs in her band. She was amazing. She gave me a hat, but I lost it many years ago.
From the very first notes, I was reacting just as you were, Beth. There's a reason we say "strikes a chord". I was going say that but realized how lame that would sound, except it's true! Those opening harmonies *did* strike a chord deep inside me. /helpless-shrug. And perfection? On the very last note or two, someone seemed to be ever so slightly mistimed. Perfect.
Was always a fan of Emmylou Harris...our age group going back to Gramm Parsons/Ryman days...follow the multi-talented Allison Krauss with my forever crush: Robert Plant....slightly familiar with another multi-talented Gillian Welch...all together=wow! Their harmony reminds me of the Statler Brothers...
Many lullabies are pretty creepy if you listen to them - combine that with a field holler, and you have something that is both calming and disturbing at the same time.
If I remember correctly, the "O Brother Where Art Thou?" soundtrack won the Grammy for Album of the Year and a boat load of country music awards. The whole album is a banger, and that's from someone who doesn't usually like Country Music.
Also, it (and the movie) were released at a time when consolidation of commercial radio stations into corporate hands was hitting its maximum. As the album didn't fit neatly into the precisely defined formats of most stations (and online services were the better portion of a decade in the future), it got very little airplay outside of college and public radio and in cities which still had a few independent stations. The popularity of the movie and support within the music industry were what led to album sales and awards.
Beth, if you haven’t heard of or seen the movie Songcatcher I highly recommend it. It is really interesting if you like the history of American country/gospel/bluegrass music.
In the documentary about the music, Gillian explained that they had Emmylou take the low part, as she always seems to get the angelic higher parts. I wish my ear could pick out the individual voices. Would love an isolated track video.
I'm a huge Coen Brothers fan, and I saw the movie on opening day in Los Angeles. As expected it is a wonderful movie, but my brother and I were blown away by the soundtrack -- Dan Tyminski, a member of Alison Krauss' band Union Station, sang Clooney's part in Man of Contant Sorrow, but after that clip I admit I'm a bit curious to hear Clooney's version...
One of the greatest vocal performances I have seen live was Gillian Welch and David Rawlings. They stepped out in front of the microphones, just standing on the edge of the stage with no amplification at all; and did "Long Black Veil". You could have heard a pin drop in that theater. Something like 1500 seats, all full, as quiet as churchmice.
They are being sirens (although played by actresses in the movie). Sirens lure sailors to their deaths with their song, so not really a lullabye in this instance. If I remember correctly, the George Clooney character saves his buddies from being lured by the sirens as did Odysseus. Gorgeous rendition.
I’ve watched this video dozens of times and I’ve seen Alison and Emmylou hundreds of times, this is the first time I noticed their similar mouth shape especially the upper lip and teeth position.
An amazing rendition, but every song in the movie is fantastic. If you haven't seen the movie, it's well worth it. Paul Stanley's version of " Oh death" is bone chilling.
When my grandpa who is 94 now heard this song he said I've heard this a long long time ago when he lived in Eastern Kentucky. His entire family played bluegrass then passed it all down to his kids when he moved to Indiana when he was 17.
All three are incredible! Emmylou and Alison are in my top five female voices of all time. Of course there are a dozen or so others in that top five... like Joan Osborne, Eva Cassidy, Linda Ronstadt, Patty Griffin, Tift Merrit, Dido, Josh Stone, and my very fav, So Hyang.
My introduction to harmony singing was the Big Band vocal groups such as the Modernaires and the Pied Pipers and later the Sons of the Pioneers and the Everly Brothers...
Alan Lomax was on the programming committee for the Newport Folk Festival, and was intimately involved in the brouhaha surrounding Dylan's move to electric in 1965. In the upcoming Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown, Lomax is played by the fine actor Norbert Leo Butz.
Fell in love with EmmyLou almost 50 years ago, and never got over it. Alison allows us all to hear what the angel choir sounds like while still right here on earth. Found Gillian (Pretty sure she uses the hard G sound BTW) a little later on, but was instantly sold. 3 such incredible talents. It was Dan Tyminski, a member of Alison's band who did the singing for George's character in the movie. Love your videos Beth. Not sure if you have done them, but if not look for a live version (I will leave a link just in case) of Trio, which is Dolly Parton, EmmyLou and Linda Ronstadt, speaking of 3 fabulous voices. The song I am leaving you is The Sweetest Gift (A Mother's Smile). Hope you enjoy. Beth, stay safe and well and of course adorable. th-cam.com/video/LVu2L7eCv-I/w-d-xo.html
Not sure you got who is singing which part right. If you watch the movie “down from the mountain” where this clip is from. Gillian Welch says “they both have higher voices than I do, and they take great delight in making me sing above them”…
Check out Allison Kruass's "Jacob's Dream." A song about a true life tragedy, that she delivers devastatingly. Pick the video where she is singing it in the studio so that you can see her. ( Bring tissues, this song causes tears.)
If you can find it, you might like the movie Songcatcher. 2000 American drama film about a musicologist who discovers a treasure trove of ancient ballads in the Appalachian mountains:
This was sung very much as old school bluegrass, country, Appalachian. etc performers. One microphone, with all the blending of voices done in real time. The tradition is still observed, and a good recent example is Billy Strings doing his song "Richard Petty" th-cam.com/video/VCbtmaFNRTw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=0pwbDs2cfk_y43Mz. He finishes off all his performances around one mic, with some a cappella, and some accompanied.
My family on my Mom’s side were all good bluegrass musicians. My grandpa could play anything with strings. You were right it does skip generations because I have no musical talent. Also, yes these women legends in bluegrass.
Love this, love these 3 ladies, but something I picked up- one of them makes a lot of noise when inhaling. I picked up somewhere that that's a flaw. Is that a technique thing ?
For great female close harmonies I'll recommend June Tabor and Maddy Prior singing as the Silly Sisters. I'll suggest these two cuts: Four Loom Weavers - th-cam.com/video/lAUTTNIu4Sg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_1soO8Dppk8s195Q The Grey Funnel Line - th-cam.com/video/G2q_VXShg4Y/w-d-xo.htmlsi=epKKe0aHUdjC4F_I
A friend of mine who is a gifted musician discovered that she is related to Alan Lomax and she contacted him but he didn't respond. She was a bit miffed. 😅
Check out this tune by "Sweet Honey in the Rock" or their version of "Sylvie". There was a documentary about Ledbelly and Woody Guthrie called "A Vision Shared", which has a number of well known artists doing versions of their songs. Sweet Honey in the Rock do a couple and the versions on that documentary are incredible. Here is a version, apparently recorded for that documentary but it's not the live one actually in the documentary: th-cam.com/video/JKvY9Yg2k-c/w-d-xo.html
I am hoping for you to listen to Kurt Nilsen performing Firestone with Kygo at the nobel peace prize in 2015. The only winner of world idol and being called too ugly for tv by Simon Cowell
Savage Daughter • Wyndreth Berginsdottir (Version by Alexia Evellyn). Sadly, she doesn't sing the entire song. :( I saw your picture on the Redhead Club page on Facebook. I recommended your TH-cam page.
Check out some of the other Gillian Welch work, I love Revelator, th-cam.com/video/4gEc5Pq50xo/w-d-xo.html or their cover of the Neil Young Pocahontas th-cam.com/video/iliCadW0s5Q/w-d-xo.html&pp=ygUNZ2lsbGlhbiB3ZWxjaA%3D%3D or even from that same movie, this one th-cam.com/video/b_bUkP4oBis/w-d-xo.html
Re Dragonforce: It would seem I tuned into your , "Through the Fire and the Flames" reaction video five years too late. So, apologies for this late, lengthy, and wildly off topic comment. We're not lobbying for reviews here. It's just a humble suggestion, that if you truly enjoyed the band, that you almost must give these two songs a listen. Both track's official videos are freely available on TH-cam. (links below) First: "Cry Thunder". You will struggle to believe just how much power can be derived from what is basically, "an Irish Jig". It's in 6/8 time (for the most part), and it will have you rooting around the house for your combat boots and broadsword, preparing for, nay anticipating, a ferocious battle. It stands out front and center, even when surrounded by other Dragonforce offerings. It really is a, "you absolutely can't miss this one", power metal monument. th-cam.com/video/r2ZstuGjF_c/w-d-xo.html Next would be, "The Last Dragonborn". The song is a "reaction/interpretation", honoring the video game, "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim". It goes along nicely in Dm, then there's a "trucker's gear change" to Em. In the last part. the last note Marc hits is E5..! And he absolutely crushes it. It does have to be heard to be believed. th-cam.com/video/FX875XBcfMY/w-d-xo.html Some backstory: "Skyrim" has it's own "official theme song", which has been covered by many others, notably Leah. It's good, even very good. However, it pales by comparison to Dragonforce's tribute. Now, people, places, and things mentioned in, "The Last Dragonborn", are all taken from the mythology of the "Elder Scrolls". If you've never played any of the games, a quick read-through of the lyrics might help you figure out, "what the heck they're talking about". (It certainly helped me). genius.com/Dragonforce-the-last-dragonborn-lyrics On my last doctor's visit, I was informed that I was being categorized as "elderly". Accordingly, whenever I speak to anyone about Dragonforce, I categorize them, and sheepishly refer to them, as, "my guilty pleasure'. But what a pleasure they are. Cheers.
You should react to this. A re-master from her 1980 album "Roses in the Snow" (IMO her best album, in her prime, right after Ricky Skaggs left her "Hot Band" (a pity). This is absolutly my favorite cover of Paul Simon's "The Boxer" th-cam.com/video/AinOXzeoQEA/w-d-xo.html Emmy Lou with Sharon and Cheryl White (see the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou")
HELLO BETH!!! Im Spanish men. I love u content. Can u reaction to spanish singer like... ROCIO JURADO - Que no daría yo...

If you want some astounding 3-part harmony, you need to discover three sisters, The Roches, Maggie, Terry and Suzi Roche.I’m linking you to the studio cut of their Hammond Song for the best fidelity but there are examples of live versions available (but the fidelity is early 80’s VHS tape quality unfortunately for most of it). Too many fantastic songs from their early period (late 70’s mostly) of hilarious, ethereal, thoughtful songs to pin in a single post but PLEASE listen to just 60 seconds of this track and it will change you. th-cam.com/video/EA-U5H4VoX8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Zsp-L-JpqJJzdDrn

These three women account for 42 Grammy awards on 98 nominations. I'd say there's some talent there
Maybe just a little.
Yep, if they keep practicing and really try, they'll get the hang of it. ;)
The three of them create a sound that is absolutely perfect for irresistible sirens. It’s incredibly beautiful. These artists are individually among the finest at their craft, and as is not always true, together they are even better
You have to do more reactions to Allison Krauss & Union Station. So much incredible music.
“Down in the River to Pray” is a great one for harmonies.
Absolutely! Many live performances to choose from.
The only reason Beyonce holds the record for most grammy wins by a woman is because Allison went into semi retirement 12 years ago.
A friend insisted on taking me to the movie when it came out - but first, we had to listen to the music (a documentary? I don't remember). I was stunned. I'd never cared much for country, but all of this music - and this song in particular - became permanent favorites. Just stunning.
There is the soundtrack album. But, yes, there is also a documentary film, *Down from the Mountain* (2000), of a benefit performance at the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, that was put on even before *O Brother, Where Art Thou* (2000) debuted. That documentary is what the clip here is from.
@@Ernwaldo Thank you. I'm pretty sure we went to see the documentary, but it didn't seem logical that a documentary would have been available prior to the film. Now it makes sense.
@@Aurora-cv5to You’re very welcome. Very cool to hear about your experience. Thanks for sharing!
I am not exactly certain which film was _technically_ released first (both in 2000), just that the concert was held before *O Brother Where Art Thou* was released in cinemas.
I had copies of both (& the soundtrack album) until someone I could never recall borrowed my copy of the concert & never returned it. 😖
Hope you continue to enjoy!
The album is bluegrass not country, as is this song
@@beaandjuno Bluegrass is a form of Country music, so it is both.
Two of my favorite singers and now I have to listen to more Alison Kraus.
Alison is so good, and with Union Station, her band, featuring greats like Ron Block, Dan Tyminski (who actually sang for George Clooney in the movie) and dobro prodigy Jerry Douglas, her live performances are faultless.
She's worth the time to listen to. Here's a duet with Brad Paisley...th-cam.com/video/CPon1IMgQc8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=D5azyXEG20kfaMMQ
Here's another song...
th-cam.com/video/2UYySy4ad2Q/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NlOX2uYSowbNDUup
And she's versatile. She has a few pieces with Yoyo Ma (a classical cellist)that are delightful, and two albums with Robert Plant (80s rock and roller) that are admittedly unusual, but I find enjoyable.
Please listen to the album Allison Krause did with Robert Plant. Brilliant!
A more modern women's trio is I'm With Her. (Sara Watkins, Aofie O'Donovan, and Sarah Jarosz). They were considered a Folk and Bluegrass supergroup that formed about 2014, and they will still perform together ocassionally, but each has excellent solo work and success with other groups. They won 2 Grammys in '20 with the song Call My Name. They have incredible harmonies also, and any of their songs would be great to react to, but Call My Name at the Kennedy Center is fantastic. Actually any song from their performance at the Kennedy Center is a delight.
T Bone. Love how he brings the right people together. Raising Sand is a fav and an example.
Beautiful harmonies! I absolutely love the movie too!
You could do a reaction of each song from that movie, and I would enjoy them all. Every single song is a masterpiece. Great songwriting and outstanding performances on all of them. And I'm not even a big country, western and folk fan.
Three - beg pardon, four - great singers at work here. Spot-on research as usual. Roar on, blissful beatific Beth.
Firstly one of my favorite movies, secondly, one of my favorite harmony pieces. You are so intuitive when it comes to music.
Emmy Lou Harris' performance with The Band on Evangeline is stunning. And all her work on The Trios with Dolly Parton and Linda Somerset is a masterpiece.
Mixed stage monitors at a Louisville, KY bluegrass festival in 1980. Emmylou Harris was the headliner with a then unknown Ricky Skaggs in her band. She was amazing. She gave me a hat, but I lost it many years ago.
love this song, and this was so great to see performed live. thank you
From the very first notes, I was reacting just as you were, Beth. There's a reason we say "strikes a chord". I was going say that but realized how lame that would sound, except it's true! Those opening harmonies *did* strike a chord deep inside me. /helpless-shrug.
And perfection? On the very last note or two, someone seemed to be ever so slightly mistimed. Perfect.
Was always a fan of Emmylou Harris...our age group going back to Gramm Parsons/Ryman days...follow the multi-talented Allison Krauss with my forever crush: Robert Plant....slightly familiar with another multi-talented Gillian Welch...all together=wow! Their harmony reminds me of the Statler Brothers...
Many lullabies are pretty creepy if you listen to them - combine that with a field holler, and you have something that is both calming and disturbing at the same time.
I love each and every one of these girls!
Minor correction. Gillian pronounces her name with a hard g.
Alison Krauss "Ghost In This House" ❤
Such a great collection of songs from such a great movie.
If I remember correctly, the "O Brother Where Art Thou?" soundtrack won the Grammy for Album of the Year and a boat load of country music awards. The whole album is a banger, and that's from someone who doesn't usually like Country Music.
Good call. It not only won the prestigious Album of the Year award, but Compilation Soundtrack Album award at the 2002 Grammy’s.
Also, it (and the movie) were released at a time when consolidation of commercial radio stations into corporate hands was hitting its maximum. As the album didn't fit neatly into the precisely defined formats of most stations (and online services were the better portion of a decade in the future), it got very little airplay outside of college and public radio and in cities which still had a few independent stations. The popularity of the movie and support within the music industry were what led to album sales and awards.
Beth, if you haven’t heard of or seen the movie Songcatcher I highly recommend it. It is really interesting if you like the history of American country/gospel/bluegrass music.
Good call!

Yes! They put on stellar concerts. Had they great pleasure to see them a couple of times and hope to see them more.
This soundtrack is one of the greatest albums of all time. The sound of my childhood, and half of my family.
Another must listen. Kathy Mattea, Suzy Boggus, and Alison Krauss Teach your children.
Amazing lineup.
Her group is also incredibly talented as well (Union Station)..For proof of that,, Alison Krauss & Union Station "Man Of Constant Sorrow" 🔥
Such beautiful voices complimenting each other
They are being sirens (although played by actresses in the movie). Sirens lure sailors to their deaths with their song, so not really a lullabye in this instance. If I remember correctly, the George Clooney character saves his buddies from being lured by the sirens as did Odysseus. Gorgeous rendition.
Emmylou, I still love you ..and will till the day I die..😢.
I’ve watched this video dozens of times and I’ve seen Alison and Emmylou hundreds of times, this is the first time I noticed their similar mouth shape especially the upper lip and teeth position.
An amazing rendition, but every song in the movie is fantastic. If you haven't seen the movie, it's well worth it. Paul Stanley's version of " Oh death" is bone chilling.
I believe that would be Ralph Stanley, not the Kiss guy.
Um, Paul Stanley is the lead singer for KISS, sweet Georgia Brown, first time he has ever been confused with Ralph Stanley😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
All the Pretty Little Horses is one of my favourite songs.
Alan Lomax was a National Treasure. If not for him, so many songs would have been lost.
Emmylou and Gram Parsons is some of my favorite duet.
When my grandpa who is 94 now heard this song he said I've heard this a long long time ago when he lived in Eastern Kentucky. His entire family played bluegrass then passed it all down to his kids when he moved to Indiana when he was 17.
You do know that Allison, and Robert Plat have several duos albums! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Bonitas voces bonita melodía bonita couch exelente bien Beth 👏👏🍀🍀
And these lady’s did some amazing collaboration , Alison with Robert Plant and Emmilou with mark knopfler. Just amazing
For more amazing close harmonies from a classic country group, you should really check out the LOUVIN BROTHERS
All three are incredible! Emmylou and Alison are in my top five female voices of all time. Of course there are a dozen or so others in that top five... like Joan Osborne, Eva Cassidy, Linda Ronstadt, Patty Griffin, Tift Merrit, Dido, Josh Stone, and my very fav, So Hyang.
My introduction to harmony singing was the Big Band vocal groups such as the Modernaires and the Pied Pipers and later the Sons of the Pioneers and the Everly Brothers...
Would be interesting for you to tackle Alison Krauss' collaboration with Robert Plant, two great vocalists from widely different traditions
Second this!
Alan Lomax was on the programming committee for the Newport Folk Festival, and was intimately involved in the brouhaha surrounding Dylan's move to electric in 1965. In the upcoming Bob Dylan biopic, A Complete Unknown, Lomax is played by the fine actor Norbert Leo Butz.
Alison Krauss together with Robert Plant is a must for both of their album collaborations and tours
Gillian Welsh "Elvis Presley Blues" is worth a future reaction
Fell in love with EmmyLou almost 50 years ago, and never got over it. Alison allows us all to hear what the angel choir sounds like while still right here on earth. Found Gillian (Pretty sure she uses the hard G sound BTW) a little later on, but was instantly sold. 3 such incredible talents. It was Dan Tyminski, a member of Alison's band who did the singing for George's character in the movie. Love your videos Beth. Not sure if you have done them, but if not look for a live version (I will leave a link just in case) of Trio, which is Dolly Parton, EmmyLou and Linda Ronstadt, speaking of 3 fabulous voices. The song I am leaving you is The Sweetest Gift (A Mother's Smile). Hope you enjoy. Beth, stay safe and well and of course adorable. th-cam.com/video/LVu2L7eCv-I/w-d-xo.html
There's a really amazing version of "All the Pretty Horses" that was recorded by the band Current 93, that features Nick Cave on lead vocals
The song vaaaaguely reminds me of the ballad La Belle Dame sans Merci, particularly the last line but the general vibe.
great lineup and song. Someday you should check out an all women bluegrass band Della Mae. Start with Bourbon Hound... Love your channel and album
Not sure you got who is singing which part right. If you watch the movie “down from the mountain” where this clip is from. Gillian Welch says “they both have higher voices than I do, and they take great delight in making me sing above them”…
Down From the Mountain is a great film.
Gives ya goose bumps, don't it!
How can they not look at each other???
Listen to Trio, Emmylou Harris, Dolly Parton, and Linda Ronstadt. One of my favorite albums of all time. Anything on that album is great.
Another beautiful song is Alison Krauss and Shawn Colvin singing Shotgun Down the Avalanche.
Billy Strings should be next!
Muy de acuerdo, también podrían ser Sarah Jarosz, Aoife O'Donnovan, Chris Thille o Molly Tuttle
About time you started paying attention to some bluegrass. Molly Tuttle and the two Sierras could be your next stop.
You seriously need to listen to Alison Krauss - "A Living Prayer".
You won't regret it...
th-cam.com/video/HKpy15xBW4w/w-d-xo.htmlsi=VPiu6V0qngTSIHxz
Check out Allison Kruass's "Jacob's Dream." A song about a true life tragedy, that she delivers devastatingly. Pick the video where she is singing it in the studio so that you can see her. ( Bring tissues, this song causes tears.)

Thank you. Give a glance at Alison Krauss' version of JACOB'S DREAM.
Song based on actual event in 1856. Beautiful and tragic.
Please, react to Humming bird by Seals and Crofts, the harmonies are insane.
Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) and Alison Krauss have a video: Gone, Gone, Gone, with T-bone playing guitar. Please don't miss it!
My family on my Mom’s side were all good bluegrass musicians. My grandpa could play anything with strings. You were right it does skip generations because I have no musical talent. Also, yes these women legends in bluegrass.
I would like to suggest The Ride by Chris Ledoux
You also have to be impressed with how amazingly well Emmylou Harris has aged.
Gillian, with a hard G
Joan Baez did a great version of 'All the Pretty Little Horses"
Hi Beth! Love your work! Please do a react of Russell Allen singing For the sake of our brothers, in the Trans-Siberian Orchestra concert!
Love this, love these 3 ladies, but something I picked up- one of them makes a lot of noise when inhaling. I picked up somewhere that that's a flaw. Is that a technique thing ?
"I seen 'em first!"
For great female close harmonies I'll recommend June Tabor and Maddy Prior singing as the Silly Sisters. I'll suggest these two cuts:

A friend of mine who is a gifted musician discovered that she is related to Alan Lomax and she contacted him but he didn't respond. She was a bit miffed. 😅
Any song that starts with a foot stomp has to be good
Check out this tune by "Sweet Honey in the Rock" or their version of "Sylvie". There was a documentary about Ledbelly and Woody Guthrie called "A Vision Shared", which has a number of well known artists doing versions of their songs. Sweet Honey in the Rock do a couple and the versions on that documentary are incredible.
Here is a version, apparently recorded for that documentary but it's not the live one actually in the documentary:

I am hoping for you to listen to Kurt Nilsen performing Firestone with Kygo at the nobel peace prize in 2015. The only winner of world idol and being called too ugly for tv by Simon Cowell
Please, react to Lisa Gerrard & Pieter Bourke "sacrifice"
Savage Daughter • Wyndreth Berginsdottir (Version by Alexia Evellyn). Sadly, she doesn't sing the entire song. :( I saw your picture on the Redhead Club page on Facebook. I recommended your TH-cam page.

Re Dragonforce: It would seem I tuned into your , "Through the Fire and the Flames" reaction video five years too late. So, apologies for this late, lengthy, and wildly off topic comment. We're not lobbying for reviews here. It's just a humble suggestion, that if you truly enjoyed the band, that you almost must give these two songs a listen. Both track's official videos are freely available on TH-cam. (links below)
First: "Cry Thunder". You will struggle to believe just how much power can be derived from what is basically, "an Irish Jig". It's in 6/8 time (for the most part), and it will have you rooting around the house for your combat boots and broadsword, preparing for, nay anticipating, a ferocious battle. It stands out front and center, even when surrounded by other Dragonforce offerings. It really is a, "you absolutely can't miss this one", power metal monument.

Next would be, "The Last Dragonborn". The song is a "reaction/interpretation", honoring the video game, "The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim". It goes along nicely in Dm, then there's a "trucker's gear change" to Em. In the last part. the last note Marc hits is E5..! And he absolutely crushes it. It does have to be heard to be believed.

Some backstory: "Skyrim" has it's own "official theme song", which has been covered by many others, notably Leah. It's good, even very good. However, it pales by comparison to Dragonforce's tribute.
Now, people, places, and things mentioned in, "The Last Dragonborn", are all taken from the mythology of the "Elder Scrolls". If you've never played any of the games, a quick read-through of the lyrics might help you figure out, "what the heck they're talking about". (It certainly helped me). genius.com/Dragonforce-the-last-dragonborn-lyrics
On my last doctor's visit, I was informed that I was being categorized as "elderly". Accordingly, whenever I speak to anyone about Dragonforce, I categorize them, and sheepishly refer to them, as, "my guilty pleasure'. But what a pleasure they are. Cheers.
You should react to this. A re-master from her 1980 album "Roses in the Snow" (IMO her best album, in her prime, right after Ricky Skaggs left her "Hot Band" (a pity). This is absolutly my favorite cover of Paul Simon's "The Boxer" th-cam.com/video/AinOXzeoQEA/w-d-xo.html Emmy Lou with Sharon and Cheryl White (see the movie "O Brother Where Art Thou")

If you want some astounding 3-part harmony, you need to discover three sisters, The Roches, Maggie, Terry and Suzi Roche.I’m linking you to the studio cut of their Hammond Song for the best fidelity but there are examples of live versions available (but the fidelity is early 80’s VHS tape quality unfortunately for most of it). Too many fantastic songs from their early period (late 70’s mostly) of hilarious, ethereal, thoughtful songs to pin in a single post but PLEASE listen to just 60 seconds of this track and it will change you.
