Hi Bear. Great reaction. So cool that you came across Courtney's music. She is amazing. You would have no way of knowing after just seeing Courtney on AGT, but she can sing virtually any genre exquisitely. Unbelievable vocal power, control and range. You just heard what a killer rock voice she has and when she is on stage, she dominates a stage like no other. However, her vocal versatility is astounding. Courtney is equally as great across so many genres besides rock. R&B, Funk, Soul, Ballads and more. The most incredible thing is, whatever the genre, there is never a drop off to the incredible quality of her music. Virtually all artists, even the biggest, have their comfort zone. Inside that zone, they are great, but take them outside that zone, and not so much. We've yet to see where Courtney's comfort zone ends, and maybe there is no end. To hear one of her ballads is to truly appreciate what a gorgeous voice she has. She is a true generational level talent. Courtney was so great on AGT that she was almost immediately signed to a record deal at Syco/Arista records (Sony Music). After AGT, those that knew her from only there, viewed her as this fabulous stage dominating rocker, which she surely is. But, she is so, so much more. As I mentioned above, her range is astounding. So in 2019, she released an EP called the 'Cover Sessions' where she took some of the biggest recent hits across different genres, and re-invented them into her vision of the way they could, and IMO should, have been sung. They were all sensational. The purpose was to highlight both her incredible vocal versatility and her off the charts creativity. All four of the 'Cover Session' songs are available on her TH-cam channel. They are Old Town Road, Sign of the Times, Sucker and Someone You Loved. Take my word when I say Courtney's versions sound nothing like the originals. She is truly a creative genius. Courtney went through hell to start getting her original music out. First, her label for years trying to turn her into something she didn’t want to be. Another pop princess. Can you imagine that magnificent voice you just heard being limited to just pop, but there’s more. Of course, there was Covid, which delayed her album release for more than two years. Then her label was sold, creating even more chaos. At the beginning of 2023, as soon as she could, she walked away from her label and went independent. Since than, there has been a torrent of brilliant original releases, with much more to come. Details below. In 2023, Courtney released five brilliant originals across multiple genres. First was 'Breakable', a gorgeous, gritty ballad, then 'That Girl Don't Live Here', a jazzy uptempo song with a touch of 1940's swing, followed by 'Call Me Back', that will rip your heart out every time you hear it and 'Monsters', a magnificent rock anthem and lastly, 'Christmas Rocks', which is a fabulous new rocky Christmas tune that will simply demand that you move with it. All are available on Courtney's TH-cam channel and all are must hears. Next on the agenda for Courtney is to complete her long delayed debut album of original music. Courtney has a huge song library that she hasn't been able to release because of the reasons described above, but she has shared many of them, in whole or in part with fans, and they are all sensational. She is such a powerhouse as a songwriter. If you're going to be reacting to more Courtney music, you have me as a subscriber. Can't wait for you to hear everything Courtney can bring to 'Bear' musically. Pun totally intended.
Luke Spiller of The Struts was so impressed with Courtney that when he found out she lived near Newcastle (England), knowing The Struts had an upcoming concert at Newcastle University a few months after this, he invited her to join the band onstage to close the concert. The video of that is on TH-cam (look for the longer one), and it's pretty clear that a lot of the crowd (Newcastle knows exactly who she is) had come to see her, not The Struts.
I thought that she was 12 when she was on TVKUK, and 13/14 when she was on AGT. but yeah, she's phenomenal. You should seriously check out her independent music from last year, and the Cover sessions she made after AGT. Also, check out her Karaoke performance she did on her 18th Birthday from a Tiki Bar in Turkey, she sung Proud Mary. And, before all this, she sang a fantastic cover of Adele's Rolling in the Deep. I will list the pages to go to, because sometimes when I share links, the comment is blocked. Her independent songs: Breakable Courtney Hadwin - Breakable (Official Video) That Girl Don't Live Here Courtney Hadwin - That Girl Don't Live Here (Official Music Video) Call Me Back Courtney Hadwin - Call Me Back (Official Music Video) Monsters Courtney Hadwin - Monsters (Official Music Video) Christmas Rocks Courtney Hadwin - Christmas Rocks (Official Audio) Her Covers session: Sign of the Times (live Cover) Sucker (live Cover) Someone You Loved (Live Cover) Old Town Road (Live Cover) Her Karaoke performance: @CourtneyHadwin singing Proud Mary #tinaturner And her Adele song "Rolling In The Deep" performance Courtney Hadwin Covers Adele Rolling in the Deep just FANTASTIC! These are the titles of the TH-cam videos, look through any that you want.
Great reaction to a most stellar performer! Just know that Courtney will be doing her own shows, not a Janis Joplin cover one. I love Janis, but Courtney actually has more versatility and will carve her own path to stardom!
Great reaction Bear, what a talent we have here , can't get enough of Courtneys music,a superstar who is going great guns and there's a lot more to come, enjoy and yeah she's only 14, WOWZA
Great reaction! My all-time favorite performance is still River Deep Mountain High in the AGT finals, but that's largely because of that special thing about Courtney in front of a live audience. She's done some amazing things since including 5 great original songs released last year, 4 of them with creative official videos. Hope to see you react to some of them and her upcoming debut album. Liked and Subscribed.
Great react Bear!! Welcome to the world of Courtney Hadwin. Jump on Courtz choo choo trian and enjoy the ride. Don't feel like I need to fill in anything Mr. Edward has said most of it.
Best part of Courtney's version here - "Take another little piece of my heart now, baby (whoa, break it)", and her voice is clearly not like a Janis Joplin. 4:31
The struts lead singer in an interview later said that they were asked to do this show the night before and had to fly across country to be there the next day, and also said that in all likelihood would have to show her a few things untill he met her and listened to her and then said yeah I'm going to shut up and go sit down now. Imagine just a whole day to rehearse this and they sounded like this . Pretty great in my book I'd say
Nice reaction, Bear! In 2023, she released her first five original songs as an 18- & 19-year-old, kicking off her professional singing career. When you have a moment, would you please react to her rock original called, "Monsters" about fighting against one's inner demons? Thanks! Link - th-cam.com/video/B1Xyw_uDXDI/w-d-xo.html
Great reaction Bear! I loved your set-up with Courtney’s performance being full screen and you rocking out to it in the foreground. This was a really FUN reaction. You will want to come back to Courtney. She has a captivating voice and has released five original singles in 2023, all different but all equally amazing. I have subbed to your channel.
Great reaction Bear to one of my favorite young artists. Courtney is phenomenal please check out some of her new music Monsters, That Girl Don't Live Here, Call Me Back and Breakable all are FIRE!! New sub. Thanks for the great reaction and I love your set up.
❤❤❤ Really enjoyed watching Courtney...I watched her performances on The Voice and AGT, and remember them well...check out her music on youtube...she has some great tunes, some covers, some originals...thanks so much for reacting to this...just really wished it was some of her more current work
Courtney is amazing! Do more Courtney, she has new songs out after she left dumb Simon's contract, he wouldn't let her do originals, but now I bet he's kicking himself. She has a great voice thsts soulful and real. I got goose bumps. Love your energy so I subscribed
When she goes on tour, it will be as Courtney not JJ. She is way too prolific in her own work already and her fans want her! Thanks for the reaction but try to stay off to the side because we want to see our wonderful Courtney.
Even Olivia Rodrigo can get a Rock guitarist to perform 🤔🤔🤔 th-cam.com/video/h2veI5qnKxo/w-d-xo.html You're So Vain (Live) by Carly Simon th-cam.com/video/mQZmCJUSC6g/w-d-xo.html

Yeah, Courtney sings with the passion ANF energy of Joplin but her voice and performing styles are Courtney's. She is not a Joplin Karaoke clone.
The struts lead singer in an interview later said that they were asked to do this show the night before and had to fly across country to be there the next day, and also said that in all likelihood would have to show her a few things untill he met her and listened to her and then said yeah I'm going to shut up and go sit down now.

That’s an amazing story
They actually had 2 hours to rehearsals
She schooled him lol
Comments not being posted!!!!
Her covers show her talent. Her originals show she is an artist and are even better.
Not bad for 14
Just wait, she has originals as and adult now! Amazing

@TCBReacts I actually liked that you put her on full screen. Most reactors do like a thumbnail and blow themselves up.
Pray for Courtney.
