Hi Aleks...Very excellent reaction! I think that Lucy is certainly one of the best of the current generation of young vocalists. Personally, I have never heard or seen anyone who can surpass her. Lucy is pure and genuine. She does not need to use any gimmicks or flaunt her body. Her voice and presentation is gold. Award winning! And her inner and natural outer beauty is a rarity in the world today. Putting it plain and simply, Lucy is world class.
Thank you so much! I really like the fact that she is doing what Adele did - she sings, that's all. Nothing more should be needed and her voice really is very good.
I have followed Lucy for a few years now and she is getting better and better. Today she is one of the best no doubt about it. There are moore..I want moore. Great reaction. Thank you.
What a "pure, beautiful, simple" reaction! Lovely - thank you for such a perceptive and thorough and appreciative response. Lucy is something special and has rabid fans - lots of them, me included. Her videos range from age 16 to 20 and many are just stunning ("Evergreen," "At Last" (in concert), "Hallelujah" (age 16), "The Way We Were," "Somewhere' (studio version, age 18).
Thank you so much! A pleasure to have a viewer such as yourself. 😊 As I do plan to continue my reactions to Lucy, I've added all the songs you listed to the queue.
Hello Aleks, thank you for your reaction to Lucy singing " Unchained Melody " this cover is just so special, everybody is just so impressed with Lucy she is so very spsecial. You have to go back in time to when she was 14 or 15 years old and she covered a song from Dreamgirls called "Listen" this song blew me away, how can such a young girl sing like this. she is now just turned 20 years old. She has over 70 classic songs on her TH-cam channel, she had her first live concert in Manchester UK last March the next concert is in Japan in September. Take care Barbara.
Thank you so much, Barbara! Listen is added to the list. I have no idea what I'm going to react to next as so many suggestions came my way. This was indeed a surprise. What I do know is that there will be more reactions to Lucy - I like her, a lot of people seem to like her, worth listening to more. 😊 Take care, Aleks
Thank you for taking time to listen to my reaction. This song deserves a promotion, and though this is a small channel, every little bit counts I hope. 😊
Hi Aleks. You just tumbled down the rabbit hole. You'll find out there's no way back. She's that good. About 70 masterpieces to enjoy. She started at 7, auditioned at 13, got a record contract and the leading role in a musical (Rosie) at 14. Did 5 albums + an album from the musical by now. About 10 of her songs are duets with her 5y,8mo younger sister Martha. These duets are special gems! She is 20y now. 1st public concert last March in Manchester. Next one Sep 8 in Tokyo.. Enjoy.
@Michael-s8m5g No one can ever deny that she can really sing! People may like it or not, but she CAN sing and I am glad that she is being recognized so far outside of UK. 😊
Lucy was signed by a record company at age 13, but it looks her parents did not want her to be too close to the show business at a too young age. It is why she is ,really, blossoming now, and just started to give concerts.
Hi ya Alek - Welcome to the wonderful world of Lucy Thomas. Thank you for reacting to the best vocalist in the world today. Check out the ‘LUCY THOMAS MUSIC’ TH-cam channel where there are over 60 videos and 6 albums shown. I am actually happy that new reactors are featuring Lucy and Lucy & Martha. The more reactors, the wider the audience for Lucy's music. I sincerely hope you will continue to react to Lucy and promote her music to those who haven't been blessed to hear her. Also check out the 9 duets with her younger sister Martha - incredible harmonies. Have a great year and stay safe & healthy!!!
Thank you so much Bruce! ❤ I do hope that reactions actually help. Then again, I found out about Lucy through comments on my other reactions, so I guess in a way - we do. I will keep going, mainly because I liked the first song I heard. 😊
Very, very nice reaction. Yes, Lucy has a lot of fans which she prefers to call supporters. That being said, she isn’t a household name … yet. How exciting that you are now a part of making her one.
Thank you so much! That would be great - I do hope my reactions help the artists even if it is in a small way, but still... I really liked her here. More to come...
Welcome to Lucy channel. A musical wonderland. You will find videos from when she was 10 , until now ..something like 70 videos. I am sure you will enjoy your journey 👍🥰♥️
In view of this one song, she did great! I know I like her - to know how much, I need to hear more. Now, I don't know enough to proclaim she is the best in the world or not, but also I can't limit myself to one who is the best. I mean every single singer/artist I've reacted to so far is amazing in their own way - Dimash with his insane range, Diana with the color of her voice, Lara with the emotions outpour along with an excellent voice and control, Ren with extremely thought-through live videos and lyrics packed along with his unique tone... I don't want to choose. I want to listen to the best, and so far, I have thanks to the very good taste of this community. The only one that didn't impress me is Brandon Stone, but then he had Diana to save the song...
@@AleksReacts I certainly agree. I'm 84, I've 'Been-around-the-block-a-few-times.' I've seen, and heard a great many seriously talented folks. I'd be a bit uncomfortable claiming one of them "The Worlds Best." (Ooops, however, I do kinda like Dimash an awfully lot...!)
Yeah, I don't think there is such a thing as the "best in the world". There could be someone out there we never heard of and never will who is even better, and even then, it's a matter of taste.
Thank you for your great reaction. So glad you found Lucy. Your description of her was right on. Can't wait until you do more Lucy. Not only is Lucy a stunning vocalist, she is also a stunning individual. One of the most kind and humble people you will ever meet. I'm sure you noticed her emotional conveyance, it is all real. Not Acting. That along with her breath control, controlled vibrato, perfect pitch, beautiful tone, wide range and over all skill makes her one of the best in world right now. You will never be disappointed in anything Lucy does, I promise. I have been following her since she was 13. She is now 20 years old. she actually sounded this good when she was 13 even. The only thing that has really changed in her voice over that period is her lower register. It has gotten more richer and fuller. See you soon! Oh, I should warn you that there is this thing we call the "Lucy Effect". You will be drawn in by Lucy in such a way that you feel mesmerized, stunned and possibly a little teary eyed and if not teary eyed, I promise your emotions will be stirred if not aroused. But you will have a hard time explaining how she makes you feel. That's the Lucy Effect.
Thank you so much! I am glad you liked my reaction, especially since you seem to know a lot about her. I am learning so much in the last couple of hours since I uploaded this - thank you for that as well!
Hi Aleks my first time here I saw Lucy Thomas advertised so I had to look. You have stumbled across one of the best female vocalists in the world today Lucy started singing at 7 years old ,given a recording contract at 14 She is starring in a musical opening in London´s West end early next Year This musical was written for her to star in by award winning songwriter and owner of Cavendish records Chris Broom. Chris has had Lucy under contract since she was 14 .Lucy has over 70 songs on her channel she has covered all of the Divas and many say bettered them But that is something you will need to find out for yourself. This song has been my favourite song since I heard it in the film Ghost by Bobby Hatfield which up until now was my favourite version Now it is Lucy´s .She just has a beautiful pure voice and her vocal abilities are master class. Thanks for supporting Lucy and hope you react to more.
Happy to hear that you did look! Welcome to the channel. 😊 I've heard so much about Lucy in the 1.5 days this has been uploaded, so aside from the fact that I liked her rendition of this song, I am convinced that I do need to hear more. Always happy to support a good singer, after all, they're supporting me as well because without them I'd have nothing to react to. 😁 There will definitely be more of Lucy, but since I've become a fan of all music I've reacted to so far (some more, some less, I am human after all), I suggest you check out some of the others as well. So far, the community on this channel has only suggested class artists, well worth watching, like Lucy, after all.
I'm so glad that you enjoyed my request, Lucy can sing any style of music perfectly. May I recommend another song "Mary Did You Know" this time Lucy sings a duet with her 5 years and 8 months younger sister Martha. Their harmonies are really incredible, and I'm sure you'll love this performance. These young ladies are in my opinion very special. Thank you.
I am glad as well, this was a good choice and it seems my music taste is showing though my reactions. Thank you for picking up on that and suggesting this one! ❤ I pretty much like all music that moves me, be it opera, punk, rock, evergreen, folklore or metal, but the voice HAS to be good for me to enjoy it. I've added Mary Did You Know to the list, so now I have to pick my next one by Lucy. 😊
It is the exact definition of Lucy Thomas "A crystalline voice" Pure and perfect... that clarity reminds me of Sohyang, which I already mentioned to you (She is the queen of the mixed voice). The beautiful Lucy is perfect, seamless and seems easy; I guess there will be a great training behind it. In any case, there is nothing written about tastes, I agree with the versions of The Righteous Brother and Elvis Presley. Not a single but for Lucy... the versions she mentioned touched my heart. It is a beautiful melody among the great classics and great covers have been made (I seem to remember another one by Morissette Amon). Anything Morissette does is great; but I don't have this one marked in my memory. As always, Aleks, I have to congratulate you on your beautiful reaction (You looked like you were humming under your breath) Thanks again.
Thank you so much! I only said what I felt, and seems many are in agreement on the main quality of Lucy's voice - clear and pure. What's not to like? I've noted both Sohyang and Morissette Amon. There are 400+ requests, but I will go over them slowly, but surely. Sometimes I feel I need a totally new artist, so that's when it will happen. I wasn't humming, could have ruined her singing if I was, but I was very aptly lip-syncing. It's also funny how I remembered all the words, as it really has been ages since I heard the song. 😂 Thank you again for consistently checking what's new and I am very glad you like it. ❤
@@AleksReacts" He wasn't humming, he could have ruined his singing if he had, but he was lip syncing very well." Uffff!! the translator and my ignorance, that's what I wanted to say. Thanks to you
Stunning performance from Lucy,don't know if she is the best vocalist around,but she is certainly my favourite,i have followed her & seen her grow over the last few years,she has been brought along carefully by her family & Chris Broom of Cavendish records who is very much her mentor,he saw something special in her on hearing her at the age of 14,she was 20 last February,Lucy has also finished all her schooling whilst being involved in her musical career!.she is sheer class!😊
Her voice is clear, her control is excellent, this song suits her, but before I can tell if she is one of my favorites, I do need to hear more than one performance. She has intrigued me, as did so many comments from serious people like you, so I will. I had no clue she was this well known. Only one person prompted me to listen to her.
Welcome, aleks. You are in for a treat. Lucy Thomas was born 2/21/2004 in wigan UK near Manchester. Her biggest TH-cam hit is "Hallelujah" released 12/2020 and was my first exposure to her. I was smitten. Suggest you check it out first. You will be amazed at her voice even though she wasn't yet seventeen. Much more to discover. She is amazing! Kit
Thank you, Kit! Hallelujah is added to the list. There are a couple of suggestions already, so it seems there really is more to see from this young lady. 😊
I disagree, although Hallelujah is ground breaking...... Lucy harpooned me at 13 with Moon River, then memory at 15. I'd never seen or heard such a young person with such a mature voice.
Oh, I think Moon River is a lovely song. My favorite version is the one from Breakfast at Tiffany's. You know what, I'll add that one to the list as "your suggestion", just so I remember to mention you. 😊
Hello Alexs. Welcome to the magical music world of Lucy and Martha Thomas. A great number of us have followed Lucy for several years. It has been a wonderful ride so far. Lucy has a TH-cam channel with 70 or so deep recordings. She is in my humble opinion the single most beautiful and best vocalist of this generation. Please stay safe, healthy, and free.
@@AleksReacts Actually even some old songs which I was never particularly enamoured with become beautiful to me after receiving the Lucy Thomas treatment. But then I believe she is the best singer on the planet, and I am far from being alone. If you listen to some of the stuff she knocked out four or five years ago when she was only 15 or so you will soon see how extraordinary this girl is.
Easy does it, one by one and if she hooks me totally, only means she should have. 😉 I happen to like a lot of the oldies thanks to my dad, so she might be just the type of singer and I'll probably like more than one song, but I don't want to say anything in advance.
@@AleksReacts Haha, don't worry, I'll say it for you. You are absolutely 100% guaranteed to fall in love with this kid, it's inevitable. I double dare you to prove me wrong as you listen to more of her stuff, bet you don't.
Hahahahaha, this is the most creative way someone has "asked me" to keep reacting to their favorite artist. You got me - I will listen to more. 🤣 I think Smile will be next, as I vaguely remember that song from my childhood.
You just heard why so many of us think of her as the best there is right now. Gorgeous voice, perfect control, great display of emotion -- no matter what she covers it sounds perfect. And just wait until you hear her duets with her little sister! On top of that Lucy is an incredibly sweet, nice, charming human being. You will enjoy getting to know her. Here is my suggestion for a song to react to. This is her live performance of "At Last" from a few months ago. th-cam.com/video/pUibRGhsOo0/w-d-xo.html
First one ever for me, this was really wonderfully done, but I am also biased because I love this song. I'll need to hear more to form a proper opinion. So far, so good. 😊
@@AleksReacts Oh, you will. The reactions on your face told me everything, and you love in a singer what I love in a singer as well. I'm glad I found you!
Thank you so much! I hope I won't disappoint in the future. Welcome to this community. You'll also find that people are really sweet and most of the comments are either really nice or just plain informative.
Appreciate your reaction to Lucy. Hope you cover more of her songs as I believe Lucy to be the best vocalist in the world today, and is a humble, sincere lady with a warm, accepting personality and has worked hard to perfect her voice over many years. Lucky us!
Your comment is appreciated as well. Thank you! I will certainly listen to more of Lucy's songs, I've only just begun. 🙂 She seems like a sweet and well mannered young lady aside from having been blessed with a really pleasant voice. 💕
Hi ya again Aleks - I forgot to mention ... I loved this reaction and the look on your face when Lucy hit that high note close to the end of the song. I sincerely believe you will love Lucy after reacting to or just listening to a few of her videos. All of her videos are very tasteful and not complicated. Some of the 4 LIVE videos that have been posted from her concert are re-dos from studio videos but are even better since she is older and more mature. AND her duets with Martha are other-worldly - thanks again - enjoy this rabbit hole I think you will enjoy going down. Cheers!
Thank you again, Bruce! 😊 My only issue is that I'm not sure what I reacted to more - Lucy or this song in particular, so I think I need to hear something I'm not biased towards before I know if I like her or love her. Hence, more reactions needed... More will come. 😉
Nice reaction to this phenomenal talent. Try a contrast by reacting to the live version of the jazzy Etta James classic "At Last" then the heavenly "Pie Jesu" with her younger sister Martha. This will give you an idea how versatile Lucy is. Lucy and Marth's cover of "The Prayer" is regarded as one of , if not the best rendition of this song ever recorded and Martha was only twelve years old -- it's unbelievable! T
Ah... yup! We can tell you really enjoyed this performance! This young lady certainly did this song justice, and I completely agree with you, this is what a singer does. Stay in your comfort zone and don't try to be clever and stay true to the melody. So rare these days to see someone her age perform a song from seventy years ago and do it with the grace and elegance it deserves.
Hi, welcome to the Lucy Thomas world. I could recommend so many of Lucy’s performances, but if I was asked to choose two I would suggest her version of ‘At Last’ from the recent concert in Manchester, UK (her first live concert), and the duet with her sister Martha of ‘The Prayer’. 🥰🇬🇧
Checkout "Smile" (th-cam.com/video/kNDP2-q9NsY/w-d-xo.html) recorded around mother's day 2023 with Lucy her younger sister Martha and Louise (mom). Lucy Thomas was 14 when she first appeared on television, finishing as a semi-finalist on The Voice Kids in 2018. Afterwards, she was signed to Cavendish Records - a new label, named after prestigious scientist Henry Cavendish, that specializes in classical crossover and musical theatre. Lucy had her 1st live concert in Manchester a few month ago; setlist includes "At Last", "Evergreen", "Hallelujah", "Somewhere", "We Can Change the World" and 12 others...
@@AleksReacts Smile - music was written by Charlie Chaplin (1936), Lyrics added in 1954 by Parsons & Turner and released by Nat King Cole the same year and charted at #2.
Thank you Aleks. Your reaction was one of the most genuine and honest that I’ve seen in a while. There are many, myself included, who find Lucy’s talent mesmerising, and there is real enjoyment in watching someone like yourself, discover her beautiful voice for the first time. I for one would love to watch you discover Lucy at just 17 years old and her sister Martha at just 12 years old tackle the iconic duet ‘The Prayer’ as sung by A Bocelli and Celine Dion. Personally, the Thomas sisters are now my benchmark… I wonder how you might feel? Lucy has just turned 20, and recently her first concert displayed her raw talent live. Please show us your thoughts on the wonderful , timeless song ‘At last’ . Again thank you for your effort in bringing this to us, and thank you also Phil, one of many champions of Lucy. Subscribed on the first view, I found this very enjoyable Aleks! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤ To remain true to myself, I don't know how I feel yet. I've only heard one song. Admittedly, I liked this one very much, but before I can say anything more I think I need to hear more. In that spirit I have written up your suggestions along with all the others that poured in so quickly, I'm still a bit stunned. Btw, you can always check out what's been suggested/requested so far on a Google sheet link on my channel, if you're interested. So far the entire community on this channel has only suggested excellent artists, some for people of different tastes maybe, others very much the type of music that Lucy sings as well, but all are very good.
@@AleksReacts…. and that it why you are genuine! There have been many ‘one hit wonders’ through the ages, so I totally understand you feeling one song is not enough for an enduring opinion, however, we will all thoroughly enjoy watching the captivation unfold. Cue the ‘ Mwahaha’ 😝 😀
Now, you got me worried there with the "Cue the ‘ Mwahaha’". Lord knows what I'm in for. 😂

Aleks, thank you for your great reaction and welcome to the world of Lucy Thomas! Your world is about to become a much better place with her beautiful voice in it! She's got over over 80 videos on her channel now, this one being the most recent (age 20), with roughly a dozen of them being duets with her younger (by 5 years) sister Martha. Any song you run across there will amaze you. Her most popular cover to date is Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen) with over 47 million views and counting, recorded when she was 16 yrs old. You might also be interested in a duet with her sister, maybe start with The Prayer (Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion) or You Raise Me Up (Josh Groban). Truth is, every song you can find there will leave you smiling and help restore your faith in humanity. Lucy is the most talented, most versatile vocalist on earth. I, and her legion of fans, will be looking forward to your next reaction! --Jon
Thank you kindly, Jon! I wrote up your suggestions, but yours is the only account I've ever seen without a handle, so it now only says Jon next to the ones you suggested. How is it possible for an account not to have a handle? 😲 I will be exploring more of Lucy's music, and I do hope you'll enjoy the reactions that are yet to come. 😊

@@AleksReacts Aleks, I sincerely apologize for failing to reply to your question about my missing handle! I remember typing it out and then, before I could quite finish and send it the battery died on my laptop. And once it was recharged, my mind had moved on to something else and I never came back to what I'd been doing. I only caught my rude mistake today because I was listening to your newest Lucy reaction and decided to re-listen to your Lucy playlist and went to reread our exchange before commenting on "I Dreamed A Dream". The truth is, I don't know what I did to cause my handle to drop off all my comments. I feel it must be disconcerting for reactors and artists to see no name and wonder if I'm a real person, or if I'm hiding my name for some nefarious reason. I spent several hours one night trying to rectify it and I just can't seem to figure out how. I believe it may have had something to do with signing up for my original account using just my email, and then upgrading and paying for TH-cam Premium via my Google account. But that's just my speculation. Anyway, my full name is Jon McCracken, and I sign off all my comments with --Jon. You'll see me again soon over on your latest Lucy Thomas reaction. Ciao! --Jon
I apologize for not seeing your reply for so long. It's another TH-cam thing that simply isn't working right, like your handle thing. It keeps showing comments I have in fact liked and do not have anything more to say in reply as "responses with new replies". Therefore, since there are very many of those, it makes me miss actual "responses with new replies" like yours here. A pleasure to e-meet you Jon McCracken. 😊 Don't worry, it wasn't disconcerting for me, just thought it weird and also wanted to give you credit for any recommendation that I react to. I'm trying to do that, but it is getting more and more daunting as the channel grows... Hope you'll get to enjoy many more Lucy songs with me, and maybe even some other reactions for years to come. Thank you! ❤❤❤
Hello - Thx for this reaction - very much enjoyed!! I am glad you discovered Lucy & hope you will do more of her. Like many on here - I have come to believe that "to my ears" she is the best vocalist on the planet - at the ripe age of 20. Her main music channel has close to 70 songs, which are all great - they really are. Like this one - she has covered many of the greatest most iconic songs - by the greatest artists ever and has killed or done justice to every single one. Just did her first LIVE concert recently in Manchester UK - if you have time check out any of those releases "At Last" is most recent. Her live voice may even be better than her studio voice - just unreal Thx!
I loved your reaction to discovering Lucy Thomas. If you want to compare her to Barbara Streisand, Try "Evergreen" or my favorite, "Memory" from Cats. Her duets with her little sister are priceless - "You Raise Me Up" or "The Prayer" are great starters.
At age 14, Lucy was considered to be a vocal prodigy. At that age she challenged Byonce with her cover of “Listen”. At 15 she was considered not only good enough for Broadway but good enough to star on Broadway! At 16 she covered Hallelujah which one of the most beautiful covers ever recorded. It has amassed almost 50 million views on UTUBE. Somewhere originated by Barbara Streisand is another great cover. Lucy’s voice has now matured to the great cover you just reacted to. There are so many covers to listen to including some from her upcoming starring role in Rosie the musical due to open on the West End of London very soon.
Again, learning a lot about Lucy in these few hours. Thank you! The fact that she "dared" to cover Barbara Streisand says a lot, that is not an easy singer to follow. The same goes for a starring role on the West End of London. I am interested in hearing more...
@@AleksReacts she also did Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You at age 17. Not what you would expect from someone so young. Quite amazing actually!! She also does duets with her much younger sister which produce harmonies from heaven! They did a cover of the “Prayer “ which many believe was better than the Celine Dion version. I hope you enjoy!!!
I don't know if I can listen to I Will Always Love You again, but maybe that's a good reason to try. Believe it or not, I never heard Celine Dion's Prayer. When someone mentioned it for the first time I thought it was My Prayer by The Platters. 😂 Later on someone else said whose song it was and I realized I don't know the song at all.
Hello Aleks. Welcome to the magical music world of Lucy and Martha Thomas. I have followed Lucy for a few years and it has been a wonderful trip as you will fine. I have to say that Lucy is my most favorite vocalist. As you stated her clarity is just amazing. If you listen to her again you will notice that her breath control is something to be hold. She sings a lot of two verse without taking a breath. I would suggest Lucy’s cover of Barbra Streisand hit song “Evergreen” twice song of year back in the day. Link: th-cam.com/video/xscIkZmaCNg/w-d-xo.htmlsi=NQiIGQ_ljJPldkpY Or Thank you for great review. Please stay safe, healthy, and free.
The original is from Todd Duncan , from the film unchained 1955 . Not the RB brothers, although they made it famous . This performance from Lucy as you noticed follows the Bobby hatfield version very closely .Thats what you get from Lucy crystal clear vocals .Her lane is mainly musical theatre.
Great reaction Aleks! I don’t know about you, but Lucy got me with her very first note and she never let go! “UNCHAINED MELODY” is the most beautiful song ever, and this was the best rendition of it that I have ever heard! We always think Lucy can’t possibly get any better, and then she proves us wrong. Lucy has the most beautiful voice in the history of song!

If you make a statement like that then back it up!,anyway if you had heard Lucy at her recent concert in Manchester you would realise how good she is live!
I am honestly sure that the microphone here was only a prop, but I also think this is her real voice. It did not feel like there was autotune involved.
@@AleksReacts You don't "autotune" a beautiful voice like Lucy's. Good grief! Chris Broom, her producer, records almost all of her videos live. Judging by her live concert performances, I wouldn't be surprised if they are "one take". Kit

Thank you @philharris5848 for suggesting this! As you can hearing this song again after a long while certainly put a smile on my face.
Hi Aleks...Very excellent reaction! I think that Lucy is certainly one of the best of the current generation of young vocalists. Personally, I have never heard or seen anyone who can surpass her. Lucy is pure and genuine. She does not need to use any gimmicks or flaunt her body. Her voice and presentation is gold. Award winning! And her inner and natural outer beauty is a rarity in the world today. Putting it plain and simply, Lucy is world class.
Thank you so much! I really like the fact that she is doing what Adele did - she sings, that's all. Nothing more should be needed and her voice really is very good.
Great reaction as always, Aleks! Beautiful song, beautiful rendition, beautiful singer with a very special voice for sure. 🙌🏻
Thank you, my dear Raquel! As always, a lovely comment from you - I am very glad you liked it as much as I did. 😊
I have followed Lucy for a few years now and she is getting better and better. Today she is one of the best no doubt about it. There are moore..I want moore. Great reaction. Thank you.
Thank you! Due to popular demand and more importantly, the fact that I actually like her, there will be moooore. 🤣
What a "pure, beautiful, simple" reaction! Lovely - thank you for such a perceptive and thorough and appreciative response. Lucy is something special and has rabid fans - lots of them, me included. Her videos range from age 16 to 20 and many are just stunning ("Evergreen," "At Last" (in concert), "Hallelujah" (age 16), "The Way We Were," "Somewhere' (studio version, age 18).
Thank you so much! A pleasure to have a viewer such as yourself. 😊
As I do plan to continue my reactions to Lucy, I've added all the songs you listed to the queue.
Hello Aleks, thank you for your reaction to Lucy singing " Unchained Melody " this cover is just so special, everybody is just so impressed with Lucy she is so very spsecial. You have to go back in time to when she was 14 or 15 years old and she covered a song from Dreamgirls called "Listen" this song blew me away, how can such a young girl sing like this. she is now just turned 20 years old. She has over 70 classic songs on her TH-cam channel, she had her first live concert in Manchester UK last March the next concert is in Japan in September. Take care Barbara.
Thank you so much, Barbara! Listen is added to the list. I have no idea what I'm going to react to next as so many suggestions came my way. This was indeed a surprise. What I do know is that there will be more reactions to Lucy - I like her, a lot of people seem to like her, worth listening to more. 😊 Take care, Aleks
Lucy has had her Concert in Tokyo, and it was extremely successful, at the end, Lucy got a three minute standing ovation.
I'm sure it was well deserved. Glad to hear her career is taking off. 🙂
this is Lucy at her best stunning voice so soulful . thank you fot your comments and promotion for Lucy
Thank you for taking time to listen to my reaction. This song deserves a promotion, and though this is a small channel, every little bit counts I hope. 😊
Hi Aleks. You just tumbled down the rabbit hole. You'll find out there's no way back. She's that good. About 70 masterpieces to enjoy. She started at 7, auditioned at 13, got a record contract and the leading role in a musical (Rosie) at 14. Did 5 albums + an album from the musical by now. About 10 of her songs are duets with her 5y,8mo younger sister Martha. These duets are special gems! She is 20y now. 1st public concert last March in Manchester. Next one Sep 8 in Tokyo.. Enjoy.
I didn't do it intertidally, it's all @philharris5848's fault. 🤣 However, I will intentionally enjoy. 😉
Lucy has had her Concert in Tokyo, and it was extremely successful, at the end Lucy got a three minute standing ovation.
@Michael-s8m5g No one can ever deny that she can really sing! People may like it or not, but she CAN sing and I am glad that she is being recognized so far outside of UK. 😊
Lucy was signed by a record company at age 13, but it looks her parents did not want her to be too close to the show business at a too young age. It is why she is ,really, blossoming now, and just started to give concerts.
I like that actually. It seems like Diana Ankudinova, the focus is on quality and safety, rather than money. 😊❤
Welcome to the Wigan Wonder. No one has the cards this girl has. Try her...... what a voice, what a beauty, what a humble soul.
I am not going to jump before saying "hop", but she does have my attention. There will be more of Lucy on this channel...
Hi ya Alek - Welcome to the wonderful world of Lucy Thomas. Thank you for reacting to the best vocalist in the world today. Check out the ‘LUCY THOMAS MUSIC’ TH-cam channel where there are over 60 videos and 6 albums shown. I am actually happy that new reactors are featuring Lucy and Lucy & Martha. The more reactors, the wider the audience for Lucy's music. I sincerely hope you will continue to react to Lucy and promote her music to those who haven't been blessed to hear her. Also check out the 9 duets with her younger sister Martha - incredible harmonies. Have a great year and stay safe & healthy!!!
Thank you so much Bruce! ❤ I do hope that reactions actually help. Then again, I found out about Lucy through comments on my other reactions, so I guess in a way - we do. I will keep going, mainly because I liked the first song I heard. 😊
Very, very nice reaction. Yes, Lucy has a lot of fans which she prefers to call supporters. That being said, she isn’t a household name … yet. How exciting that you are now a part of making her one.
Thank you so much! That would be great - I do hope my reactions help the artists even if it is in a small way, but still... I really liked her here. More to come...
Welcome to the world of Lucy and her angelic voice
Welcome to Lucy channel. A musical wonderland. You will find videos from when she was 10 , until now ..something like 70 videos.
I am sure you will enjoy your journey 👍🥰♥️
Thank you so much! Well, this was great for a start. ❤
Lucy is amazing and is so naturally gifted! I think she is the best out there!
In my humble opinion, lucy is the very best singer on this planet.
What a pleasure to watch her develop into super stardom.
In view of this one song, she did great! I know I like her - to know how much, I need to hear more. Now, I don't know enough to proclaim she is the best in the world or not, but also I can't limit myself to one who is the best.
I mean every single singer/artist I've reacted to so far is amazing in their own way - Dimash with his insane range, Diana with the color of her voice, Lara with the emotions outpour along with an excellent voice and control, Ren with extremely thought-through live videos and lyrics packed along with his unique tone... I don't want to choose. I want to listen to the best, and so far, I have thanks to the very good taste of this community. The only one that didn't impress me is Brandon Stone, but then he had Diana to save the song...
@@AleksReacts I certainly agree. I'm 84, I've 'Been-around-the-block-a-few-times.' I've seen, and heard a great many seriously talented folks. I'd be a bit uncomfortable claiming one of them "The Worlds Best." (Ooops, however, I do kinda like Dimash an awfully lot...!)
Yeah, I don't think there is such a thing as the "best in the world". There could be someone out there we never heard of and never will who is even better, and even then, it's a matter of taste.
@@wilburfinnigan2142 Lara does Vocal gymnastic? You apparently don't know her at all.
@@AleksReacts I totally agree with you, there is no such thing as the best singer in the world.
Thank you for your great reaction. So glad you found Lucy. Your description of her was right on. Can't wait until you do more Lucy. Not only is Lucy a stunning vocalist, she is also a stunning individual. One of the most kind and humble people you will ever meet. I'm sure you noticed her emotional conveyance, it is all real. Not Acting. That along with her breath control, controlled vibrato, perfect pitch, beautiful tone, wide range and over all skill makes her one of the best in world right now. You will never be disappointed in anything Lucy does, I promise. I have been following her since she was 13. She is now 20 years old. she actually sounded this good when she was 13 even. The only thing that has really changed in her voice over that period is her lower register. It has gotten more richer and fuller. See you soon! Oh, I should warn you that there is this thing we call the "Lucy Effect". You will be drawn in by Lucy in such a way that you feel mesmerized, stunned and possibly a little teary eyed and if not teary eyed, I promise your emotions will be stirred if not aroused. But you will have a hard time explaining how she makes you feel. That's the Lucy Effect.
Thank you so much! I am glad you liked my reaction, especially since you seem to know a lot about her. I am learning so much in the last couple of hours since I uploaded this - thank you for that as well!
Hi Aleks my first time here I saw Lucy Thomas advertised so I had to look. You have stumbled across one of the best female vocalists in the world today Lucy started singing at 7 years old ,given a recording contract at 14 She is starring in a musical opening in London´s West end early next Year This musical was written for her to star in by award winning songwriter and owner of Cavendish records Chris Broom. Chris has had Lucy under contract since she was 14 .Lucy has over 70 songs on her channel she has covered all of the Divas and many say bettered them But that is something you will need to find out for yourself. This song has been my favourite song since I heard it in the film Ghost by Bobby Hatfield which up until now was my favourite version Now it is Lucy´s .She just has a beautiful pure voice and her vocal abilities are master class. Thanks for supporting Lucy and hope you react to more.
Happy to hear that you did look! Welcome to the channel. 😊 I've heard so much about Lucy in the 1.5 days this has been uploaded, so aside from the fact that I liked her rendition of this song, I am convinced that I do need to hear more. Always happy to support a good singer, after all, they're supporting me as well because without them I'd have nothing to react to. 😁
There will definitely be more of Lucy, but since I've become a fan of all music I've reacted to so far (some more, some less, I am human after all), I suggest you check out some of the others as well. So far, the community on this channel has only suggested class artists, well worth watching, like Lucy, after all.
Welcome to the world of Lucy Thomas...once you discover Lucy you can never escape. Love your reaction ❤
Thank you! I am very glad you liked it. 😊
You must watch "the prayer" Lucy and her little sister Martha are beautiful together. I don't know that I have ever heard a voice better than Lucy's.
I've added it to the list. Thank you!
I'm so glad that you enjoyed my request, Lucy can sing any style of music perfectly. May I recommend another song "Mary Did You Know" this time Lucy sings a duet with her 5 years and 8 months younger sister Martha. Their harmonies are really incredible, and I'm sure you'll love this performance. These young ladies are in my opinion very special. Thank you.
I am glad as well, this was a good choice and it seems my music taste is showing though my reactions. Thank you for picking up on that and suggesting this one! ❤ I pretty much like all music that moves me, be it opera, punk, rock, evergreen, folklore or metal, but the voice HAS to be good for me to enjoy it.
I've added Mary Did You Know to the list, so now I have to pick my next one by Lucy. 😊
@@AleksReacts With Lucy it doesn't really matter which song you choose next, every performance she gives is magical. Thank you again. 😃👍
It is the exact definition of Lucy Thomas "A crystalline voice" Pure and perfect... that clarity reminds me of Sohyang, which I already mentioned to you (She is the queen of the mixed voice).
The beautiful Lucy is perfect, seamless and seems easy; I guess there will be a great training behind it.
In any case, there is nothing written about tastes, I agree with the versions of The Righteous Brother and Elvis Presley. Not a single but for Lucy... the versions she mentioned touched my heart.
It is a beautiful melody among the great classics and great covers have been made (I seem to remember another one by Morissette Amon). Anything Morissette does is great; but I don't have this one marked in my memory.
As always, Aleks, I have to congratulate you on your beautiful reaction (You looked like you were humming under your breath)
Thanks again.
Thank you so much! I only said what I felt, and seems many are in agreement on the main quality of Lucy's voice - clear and pure. What's not to like? I've noted both Sohyang and Morissette Amon. There are 400+ requests, but I will go over them slowly, but surely. Sometimes I feel I need a totally new artist, so that's when it will happen.
I wasn't humming, could have ruined her singing if I was, but I was very aptly lip-syncing. It's also funny how I remembered all the words, as it really has been ages since I heard the song. 😂
Thank you again for consistently checking what's new and I am very glad you like it. ❤
@@AleksReacts" He wasn't humming, he could have ruined his singing if he had, but he was lip syncing very well."
Uffff!! the translator and my ignorance, that's what I wanted to say.
Thanks to you
Hehehehehe, even Google can't know all. 😉
Surely she is borm to be a star on stage, the most beautiful emotional vocals of voices sensational timeless I hunger for more.
I did like this one and I will listen to more. Most of all, I liked the clarity of her voice.
Stunning performance from Lucy,don't know if she is the best vocalist around,but she is certainly my favourite,i have followed her & seen her grow over the last few years,she has been brought along carefully by her family & Chris Broom of Cavendish records who is very much her mentor,he saw something special in her on hearing her at the age of 14,she was 20 last February,Lucy has also finished all her schooling whilst being involved in her musical career!.she is sheer class!😊
Her voice is clear, her control is excellent, this song suits her, but before I can tell if she is one of my favorites, I do need to hear more than one performance. She has intrigued me, as did so many comments from serious people like you, so I will. I had no clue she was this well known. Only one person prompted me to listen to her.
Welcome, aleks. You are in for a treat. Lucy Thomas was born 2/21/2004 in wigan UK near Manchester. Her biggest TH-cam hit is "Hallelujah" released 12/2020 and was my first exposure to her. I was smitten. Suggest you check it out first. You will be amazed at her voice even though she wasn't yet seventeen. Much more to discover. She is amazing! Kit
Thank you, Kit! Hallelujah is added to the list. There are a couple of suggestions already, so it seems there really is more to see from this young lady. 😊
I disagree, although Hallelujah is ground breaking...... Lucy harpooned me at 13 with Moon River, then memory at 15. I'd never seen or heard such a young person with such a mature voice.
Oh, I think Moon River is a lovely song. My favorite version is the one from Breakfast at Tiffany's. You know what, I'll add that one to the list as "your suggestion", just so I remember to mention you. 😊
Hello Alexs. Welcome to the magical music world of Lucy and Martha Thomas. A great number of us have followed Lucy for several years. It has been a wonderful ride so far. Lucy has a TH-cam channel with 70 or so deep recordings. She is in my humble opinion the single most beautiful and best vocalist of this generation. Please stay safe, healthy, and free.
Both might be too much, but I will check out one of those for sure. 😊
If you like beautiful old songs you will love Lucy. She's got them coming out of her ears.
I do, so I guess I'll keep going. She really did this one justice, hopefully this style of singing continues - it's just "music to my ears". 😉
@@AleksReacts Actually even some old songs which I was never particularly enamoured with become beautiful to me after receiving the Lucy Thomas treatment. But then I believe she is the best singer on the planet, and I am far from being alone. If you listen to some of the stuff she knocked out four or five years ago when she was only 15 or so you will soon see how extraordinary this girl is.
Easy does it, one by one and if she hooks me totally, only means she should have. 😉 I happen to like a lot of the oldies thanks to my dad, so she might be just the type of singer and I'll probably like more than one song, but I don't want to say anything in advance.
@@AleksReacts Haha, don't worry, I'll say it for you. You are absolutely 100% guaranteed to fall in love with this kid, it's inevitable. I double dare you to prove me wrong as you listen to more of her stuff, bet you don't.
Hahahahaha, this is the most creative way someone has "asked me" to keep reacting to their favorite artist. You got me - I will listen to more. 🤣 I think Smile will be next, as I vaguely remember that song from my childhood.
You just heard why so many of us think of her as the best there is right now. Gorgeous voice, perfect control, great display of emotion -- no matter what she covers it sounds perfect. And just wait until you hear her duets with her little sister! On top of that Lucy is an incredibly sweet, nice, charming human being. You will enjoy getting to know her. Here is my suggestion for a song to react to. This is her live performance of "At Last" from a few months ago. th-cam.com/video/pUibRGhsOo0/w-d-xo.html
First one ever for me, this was really wonderfully done, but I am also biased because I love this song. I'll need to hear more to form a proper opinion. So far, so good. 😊
@@AleksReacts Oh, you will. The reactions on your face told me everything, and you love in a singer what I love in a singer as well. I'm glad I found you!
Thank you so much! I hope I won't disappoint in the future. Welcome to this community. You'll also find that people are really sweet and most of the comments are either really nice or just plain informative.
@@AleksReacts
Yes...."Hello Lucy." I love this....!
Hehe, glad you liked it! 😊
I’m so VERY proud of you Lucy… this piece says SO much about you as a lovely spirit! Shane
Appreciate your reaction to Lucy. Hope you cover more of her songs as I believe Lucy to be the best vocalist in the world today, and is a humble, sincere lady with a warm, accepting personality and has worked hard to perfect her voice over many years. Lucky us!
Your comment is appreciated as well. Thank you!
I will certainly listen to more of Lucy's songs, I've only just begun. 🙂
She seems like a sweet and well mannered young lady aside from having been blessed with a really pleasant voice. 💕
Hi ya again Aleks - I forgot to mention ... I loved this reaction and the look on your face when Lucy hit that high note close to the end of the song. I sincerely believe you will love Lucy after reacting to or just listening to a few of her videos. All of her videos are very tasteful and not complicated. Some of the 4 LIVE videos that have been posted from her concert are re-dos from studio videos but are even better since she is older and more mature. AND her duets with Martha are other-worldly - thanks again - enjoy this rabbit hole I think you will enjoy going down. Cheers!
Thank you again, Bruce! 😊 My only issue is that I'm not sure what I reacted to more - Lucy or this song in particular, so I think I need to hear something I'm not biased towards before I know if I like her or love her. Hence, more reactions needed... More will come. 😉
Nice reaction to this phenomenal talent. Try a contrast by reacting to the live version of the jazzy Etta James classic "At Last" then the heavenly "Pie Jesu" with her younger sister Martha. This will give you an idea how versatile Lucy is. Lucy and Marth's cover of "The Prayer" is regarded as one of , if not the best rendition of this song ever recorded and Martha was only twelve years old -- it's unbelievable!
T
Thank you! I hope you're going to like what's coming up today, because my reactions to Lucy's At Last will be up in a couple of hours. 😊
Hi Aleks thank you for your review, sorry to tell you but Lucy addiction incoming 😅 Thank you again for your great reaction.
No problem 😊 If that's what I'm in for, so be it. 🤣
Ah... yup! We can tell you really enjoyed this performance! This young lady certainly did this song justice, and I completely agree with you, this is what a singer does. Stay in your comfort zone and don't try to be clever and stay true to the melody. So rare these days to see someone her age perform a song from seventy years ago and do it with the grace and elegance it deserves.
I love this song and if she didn't sing it this beautifully, I think I'd stop reacting to the singer forever. But she did, she sang it perfectly. ❤
Hi, welcome to the Lucy Thomas world. I could recommend so many of Lucy’s performances, but if I was asked to choose two I would suggest her version of ‘At Last’ from the recent concert in Manchester, UK (her first live concert), and the duet with her sister Martha of ‘The Prayer’. 🥰🇬🇧
Thank you, Peter! I have received so many suggestions, so I can't say which one will be next, but "At Last" live sounds intriguing.
@@AleksReacts Hi, it is a great performance, and the live performance is even better than her original video, which is saying something.
Checkout "Smile" (th-cam.com/video/kNDP2-q9NsY/w-d-xo.html) recorded around mother's day 2023 with Lucy her younger sister Martha and Louise (mom). Lucy Thomas was 14 when she first appeared on television, finishing as a semi-finalist on The Voice Kids in 2018. Afterwards, she was signed to Cavendish Records - a new label, named after prestigious scientist Henry Cavendish, that specializes in classical crossover and musical theatre. Lucy had her 1st live concert in Manchester a few month ago; setlist includes "At Last", "Evergreen", "Hallelujah", "Somewhere", "We Can Change the World" and 12 others...
Thank you! I've added Smile to the list. I'm glad to hear her career is taking off - I did like this song. 😊
@@AleksReacts Smile - music was written by Charlie Chaplin (1936), Lyrics added in 1954 by Parsons & Turner and released by Nat King Cole the same year and charted at #2.
OMG, I know Nat King Cole's version. Oh, I'm going to enjoy THAT!.
@@AleksReacts Keep in mind Lucy I believe was 19 at the time and Martha 14?, Louise also has a lovely voice - too bad the song is fairly short!
Might actually make it even more interesting because it's not Lucy alone... Doesn't matter how long it is, as long as it's good.
Thank you Aleks. Your reaction was one of the most genuine and honest that I’ve seen in a while. There are many, myself included, who find Lucy’s talent mesmerising, and there is real enjoyment in watching someone like yourself, discover her beautiful voice for the first time.
I for one would love to watch you discover Lucy at just 17 years old and her sister Martha at just 12 years old tackle the iconic duet ‘The Prayer’ as sung by A Bocelli and Celine Dion. Personally, the Thomas sisters are now my benchmark… I wonder how you might feel?
Lucy has just turned 20, and recently her first concert displayed her raw talent live. Please show us your thoughts on the wonderful , timeless song ‘At last’ .
Again thank you for your effort in bringing this to us, and thank you also Phil, one of many champions of Lucy.
Subscribed on the first view, I found this very enjoyable Aleks! 🙏🏻
Thank you so much for your kind words! ❤
To remain true to myself, I don't know how I feel yet. I've only heard one song. Admittedly, I liked this one very much, but before I can say anything more I think I need to hear more. In that spirit I have written up your suggestions along with all the others that poured in so quickly, I'm still a bit stunned.
Btw, you can always check out what's been suggested/requested so far on a Google sheet link on my channel, if you're interested. So far the entire community on this channel has only suggested excellent artists, some for people of different tastes maybe, others very much the type of music that Lucy sings as well, but all are very good.
@@AleksReacts…. and that it why you are genuine! There have been many ‘one hit wonders’ through the ages, so I totally understand you feeling one song is not enough for an enduring opinion, however, we will all thoroughly enjoy watching the captivation unfold. Cue the ‘ Mwahaha’ 😝 😀
@@AleksReacts thank you, I will definitely check that out Aleks!
Now, you got me worried there with the "Cue the ‘ Mwahaha’". Lord knows what I'm in for. 😂
Aleks, thank you for your great reaction and welcome to the world of Lucy Thomas! Your world is about to become a much better place with her beautiful voice in it! She's got over over 80 videos on her channel now, this one being the most recent (age 20), with roughly a dozen of them being duets with her younger (by 5 years) sister Martha. Any song you run across there will amaze you. Her most popular cover to date is Hallelujah (Leonard Cohen) with over 47 million views and counting, recorded when she was 16 yrs old. You might also be interested in a duet with her sister, maybe start with The Prayer (Andrea Bocelli and Celine Dion) or You Raise Me Up (Josh Groban). Truth is, every song you can find there will leave you smiling and help restore your faith in humanity. Lucy is the most talented, most versatile vocalist on earth. I, and her legion of fans, will be looking forward to your next reaction! --Jon
Thank you kindly, Jon! I wrote up your suggestions, but yours is the only account I've ever seen without a handle, so it now only says Jon next to the ones you suggested. How is it possible for an account not to have a handle? 😲
I will be exploring more of Lucy's music, and I do hope you'll enjoy the reactions that are yet to come. 😊
@@AleksReacts Aleks, I sincerely apologize for failing to reply to your question about my missing handle! I remember typing it out and then, before I could quite finish and send it the battery died on my laptop. And once it was recharged, my mind had moved on to something else and I never came back to what I'd been doing. I only caught my rude mistake today because I was listening to your newest Lucy reaction and decided to re-listen to your Lucy playlist and went to reread our exchange before commenting on "I Dreamed A Dream".
The truth is, I don't know what I did to cause my handle to drop off all my comments. I feel it must be disconcerting for reactors and artists to see no name and wonder if I'm a real person, or if I'm hiding my name for some nefarious reason. I spent several hours one night trying to rectify it and I just can't seem to figure out how. I believe it may have had something to do with signing up for my original account using just my email, and then upgrading and paying for TH-cam Premium via my Google account. But that's just my speculation. Anyway, my full name is Jon McCracken, and I sign off all my comments with --Jon.
You'll see me again soon over on your latest Lucy Thomas reaction. Ciao! --Jon
I apologize for not seeing your reply for so long. It's another TH-cam thing that simply isn't working right, like your handle thing. It keeps showing comments I have in fact liked and do not have anything more to say in reply as "responses with new replies". Therefore, since there are very many of those, it makes me miss actual "responses with new replies" like yours here.
A pleasure to e-meet you Jon McCracken. 😊 Don't worry, it wasn't disconcerting for me, just thought it weird and also wanted to give you credit for any recommendation that I react to. I'm trying to do that, but it is getting more and more daunting as the channel grows...
Hope you'll get to enjoy many more Lucy songs with me, and maybe even some other reactions for years to come. Thank you! ❤❤❤
Hello - Thx for this reaction - very much enjoyed!! I am glad you discovered Lucy & hope you will do more of her. Like many on here - I have come to believe that "to my ears" she is the best vocalist on the planet - at the ripe age of 20. Her main music channel has close to 70 songs, which are all great - they really are. Like this one - she has covered many of the greatest most iconic songs - by the greatest artists ever and has killed or done justice to every single one. Just did her first LIVE concert recently in Manchester UK - if you have time check out any of those releases "At Last" is most recent. Her live voice may even be better than her studio voice - just unreal Thx!
Thank you! At Last has been added to the list, still don't know which one will be next, but there will be more reactions to Lucy. 😊
@@AleksReacts Awesome - Thanks!
I loved your reaction to discovering Lucy Thomas. If you want to compare her to Barbara Streisand, Try "Evergreen" or my favorite, "Memory" from Cats. Her duets with her little sister are priceless - "You Raise Me Up" or "The Prayer" are great starters.
Thank you so much! All suggestions are jotted down and there will certainly be more reactions to Lucy.
At age 14, Lucy was considered to be a vocal prodigy. At that age she challenged Byonce with her cover of “Listen”. At 15 she was considered not only good enough for Broadway but good enough to star on Broadway! At 16 she covered Hallelujah which one of the most beautiful covers ever recorded. It has amassed almost 50 million views on UTUBE. Somewhere originated by Barbara Streisand is another great cover. Lucy’s voice has now matured to the great cover you just reacted to. There are so many covers to listen to including some from her upcoming starring role in Rosie the musical due to open on the West End of London very soon.
Again, learning a lot about Lucy in these few hours. Thank you! The fact that she "dared" to cover Barbara Streisand says a lot, that is not an easy singer to follow. The same goes for a starring role on the West End of London. I am interested in hearing more...
@@AleksReacts she also did Whitney Houston’s “I Will Always Love You at age 17. Not what you would expect from someone so young. Quite amazing actually!! She also does duets with her much younger sister which produce harmonies from heaven! They did a cover of the “Prayer “ which many believe was better than the Celine Dion version. I hope you enjoy!!!
I don't know if I can listen to I Will Always Love You again, but maybe that's a good reason to try. Believe it or not, I never heard Celine Dion's Prayer. When someone mentioned it for the first time I thought it was My Prayer by The Platters. 😂 Later on someone else said whose song it was and I realized I don't know the song at all.
Nice reaction! Have a listen to Evergreen, Lucy seems to have mastered all genre’s of music.
Thank you! What rock was I living under. Does everyone know this girl except me? Evergreen added. 😊
Hello Aleks. Welcome to the magical music world of Lucy and Martha Thomas. I have followed Lucy for a few years and it has been a wonderful trip as you will fine. I have to say that Lucy is my most favorite vocalist. As you stated her clarity is just amazing. If you listen to her again you will notice that her breath control is something to be hold. She sings a lot of two verse without taking a breath. I would suggest Lucy’s cover of Barbra Streisand hit song “Evergreen” twice song of year back in the day.

Thank you for great review. Please stay safe, healthy, and free.
Thank you so much! I've added your suggestion to the ever-growing list and will do my best to react to as many as I can. Wishing you all the best. 😊
The original is from Todd Duncan , from the film unchained 1955 . Not the RB brothers, although they made it famous . This performance from Lucy as you noticed follows the Bobby hatfield version very closely .Thats what you get from Lucy crystal clear vocals .Her lane is mainly musical theatre.
I think I only ever heard The Righteous Brothers version. Thank you for sharing more information about the song and the original artist.
Great reaction Aleks!
I don’t know about you, but Lucy got me with her very first note and she never let go!
“UNCHAINED MELODY” is the most beautiful song ever, and this was the best rendition of it that I have ever heard!
We always think Lucy can’t possibly get any better, and then she proves us wrong.
Lucy has the most beautiful voice in the history of song!

Thank you so much!
Oh, dear. The handle is correct! You gave me material for a year's worth of reactions. 😂 Believe it or not, I wrote them all up, but this will take time, so I beg for patience my AZ friend. Hope you will enjoy my future reactions as much as this one. ❤
Suggest Evergreen, At Last, La vie en rose,
Thank you for your suggestions. All are added to the list.
maybe it's her voice
but the vid ain't live.
If you make a statement like that then back it up!,anyway if you had heard Lucy at her recent concert in Manchester you would realise how good she is live!
Does it matter, as long as it is her voice?
I am honestly sure that the microphone here was only a prop, but I also think this is her real voice. It did not feel like there was autotune involved.
and your point is?
@@AleksReacts You don't "autotune" a beautiful voice like Lucy's. Good grief! Chris Broom, her producer, records almost all of her videos live. Judging by her live concert performances, I wouldn't be surprised if they are "one take". Kit
lucy thomas and angelina jorden are the best........different styles....but both great.
Yes, both have wonderful voices and very different styles. Still, both are really, really good at what they do, each in their own way.
