One of the struggles of the Christian life: to truly leave things in the past that belong there. I say particularly Christian because Jesus has forgiven our missteps and truly forgets them, in some sense. It is us who remember.
Please preserve and protect her talent. She is perfect in her own way of expressing feelings and emotions. This is art. Don’t turn her into a pop star ❤
Sjúhlasím . Aj keď má hlas na všetky žánre . Ona už nemusí nikde "prerážať" . Hviezda už je . Mohla by (aj keď som zo Slovenska) naspievať nejaké rumunské hity . Iste existujú a dala by im pečať svetovosti . Skvelé dieťa Šťasteny .
Thank you Laura, a brother in Christ here that attends the church you go to. Our family loves,appreciate and pray for you and your sister. May the Lord protect you and your family from the great deceiver, snd keep you in His love.
Genius, pure genius. Your performances of both Leave The Past and Higher Place deserve grammy nominations. However, do not forget those fans of your incredible operatic voive.
What a beautiful ballet! Lyrics are so meaningful. Done with the same power, emotion and vocal skill that you put into all of your music. BRAVO! I'm sharing the video everywhere.
Such a lovely song..! And Laura you have an Angels voice!.. The Lord lets us Know that We are Forgiven but we seem to choose to not forget and hold on to things in the past we are not proud of … but the Lord wants to see us Happy and joyfull.. Whenever we realize this we will finally say” All is well with my Soul”❤️❤️❤️🥹😌😌
Such mature singing with the right mix of genuine emotion...makes it such a soulful concoction! Always wondered who will follow in the lead of our modern classical singers like Sarah, Celine, Whitney Houston, Mariah Carey etc. to preserve the best of classic music in the coming generations, and here you are...standing tall with grace...all set to conquer the world! With your absolutely amazing voice and song-writing, may you fly high with a long lasting impact!
Wow Laura you truly are amazing you are definitely the voice of the century an icon and inspiration to the world well done so proud of you your voice is that of an angel truly God bless and thank you for this fantastic song❤❤
There is somewhere in songs sung by anyone where a great voice Signs Signature, the opening of this song is Instantly qualified for that observation, especially in that area of her range that Instantly says Laura Bretan, there are ways in the beauty of Laura's voice that are hers alone, are instantly recognizable, and no one else has. I have also always admired your spine to keep your convictions, you are a Courageous young lady, much admiration Laura. You have come a long way, and grown up Miss Bretan, I wish you nothing but stars, you deserve it. A Loyal Fan.
👍 🎤 This goes to show that NO elaborate stage, background singers or instrumentals, or other ‘pomp and circumstance’ are necessary for a song to be great! It’s Laura’s pure, precise voice and delivery that makes her a truly gifted and talented vocalist imo! She doesn’t need to ‘hide’ behind other musicians, orchestras, etc.
"Leave the Past" în interpretarea ta, Laura, este un cântec emoționant și puternic, care vorbește despre puterea de a trece peste dificultăți și de a lăsa în urmă trecutul dureros. Este un mesaj profund, transmis printr-un text bine gândit ajutat de vocea ta puternică și expresivă. Versurile reflectă o luptă interioară profundă și dorința de a se elibera de povara regretelor. Fiecare cuvânt este încărcat cu emoție și subliniază dorința protagonistului de a-și lăsa în urmă greșelile, eșecurile și durerea. "Time is like a river / Moving forward never back" este o metaforă puternică ce subliniază imposibilitatea de a schimba trecutul și necesitatea de a ne îndrepta atenția către prezent și viitor. De asemenea, îmi place cum versurile pun accentul pe ideea de iertare și de eliberare, încurajând ascultătorii să își accepte trecutul, dar să nu se lase prădați de el. Acest mesaj este consolidat și de interpretarea muzicală, folosindu-ți vocea impresionantă pentru a transmite emoție și determinare. Controlul tău vocal și capacitatea de a trece cu ușurință de la note joase la cele înalte, chiar și în cadrul aceluiași vers, este o mărturie a abilității tale vocale excepționale. Aceasta permite o varietate de expresii emoționale în interpretarea ta și adaugă un nivel suplimentar de complexitate piesei. De altfel, melisma pe care o stăpânești în registrul alto este o demonstrație a abilităților tale vocale excepționale și a înțelegerii tale aprofundate a tehnicii vocale. Este o trăsătură care te distinge ca interpretă și care îmbogățește în mod semnificativ interpretările tale. Melisma în sine este o tehnică ce poate fi dificilă de stăpânit, deoarece necesită control vocal bun, respirație adecvată și precizie în atingerea fiecărei note. Tu, Laura, în ciuda vârstei tale tinere, ai demonstrat în repetate rânduri că poți executa melisme complexe cu o ușurință aparentă, caracteristică ce precede orice artist de înaltă clasă. În registrul alto, aceasta poate deveni și mai provocatoare, deoarece notele mai joase necesită un control diferit al vocii comparativ cu notele mai înalte. Cu toate acestea, tu pari a gestiona cu succes această dificultate. De asemenea, execuția melismei în registrul mezzo completează întreaga tehnică desăvârșită pe care o stăpânești ți în același timp pare să fie și fără efort, ceea ce este o mărturie a talentului tău vocal. Piesa este, în general, un imn al speranței și al rezilienței, și, în același timp, un memento al faptului că trecutul ne poate modela, dar nu trebuie să ne definească. Laura, cu vocea ta puternică și plină de emoție, realizezi un serviciu excelent în a aduce la viață aceste teme complexe.
Dear Laura, It's so nice to see the beautiful lady you've grown into and hear the beautiful songs you've made! I'm 68 years old but I remember watching you on AGT the first time and I ---- let's just say, I got very teary eyed. Guys are suppose to be tough? But you moved me greatly. Didn't understand a word, (not sure what language you sang it in?) but I was grateful and even more today to see that God has moved in your life!!! God bless you dear girl. Thank you. Rev. Dennis Hammett
Laura , your voice is More than liquid gold, Your voice is Heavenly, ❤️🕊️🙏 You Are So 💕 Precious and So Wonderful , And So Beautiful in ALL THE Meaning of the Word, It is so easy to 💕 A Person Like You 🙂, GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY, AMEN!!!
It's a pleasure to meet you, since you participated in Got talent, your progress is wonderful and better to know that you have a Faith that you also dedicate to him and return what HE gave you, singing. I see not only a singer but a worshiper. I see it in your eyes.
❤ wonderful song... well written, well executed, awesome performance of amazing notes & tones that make my ears so happy ❤ 😀 well done Laura... well done ❤🎉❤🎉❤ 5 stars 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟
I love your voice Laura, it is so pure ! I have followed you since you were à Little girl,and I am looking forward to new songs 😊regards Kristina from Sweden
Ai putea să rămâi la fel de autentică și puternică în melodie? Prea mulți autonumiți cântăreți ne astupă urechile cu ceară fără să ne încălzească... Însă Laura tu ești o torță care ori de câte ori se aude glasul tău în juru-ți e numai văpăi.❤️🔥 .... Rămâi
" Cântecul este modul prin care dăruim oamenilor tot ce avem mai bun și mai frumos în noi " ( Mihaela Runceanu ) . Aceste cuvinte ți se potrivesc atât de bine , dragă Laura, iar acest cântec este încă unul care arată acest lucru .
THANK YOU LAURA, YOU ARE SO KIND. MAY OUR LORD JESUS BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU EVERY DAY IN YOUR LIVE. AMEN. THANK YOU FOR THE LYRICS. BE BLESSED IN OUR LORD.
For all your other followers, in the hope that they understand better in English, I have translated the comment I left for you below: "Leave the Past," as performed by you, Laura is a moving and powerful song that speaks about the power to overcome difficulties and leave behind a painful past. It conveys a profound message, transmitted through well-crafted lyrics and bolstered by your robust and expressive voice. The lyrics reflect the deep internal struggle and the desire to free oneself from the burden of regrets. Each word is loaded with emotion, underscoring the protagonist's wish to leave behind mistakes, failures, and pain. "Time is like a river / Moving forward never back" is a potent metaphor that emphasizes the impossibility of changing the past and the necessity of directing our attention towards the present and future. I also appreciate how the lyrics emphasize the idea of forgiveness and release, encouraging listeners to accept their past but not be consumed by it. The musical performance further solidifies this message, using your remarkable voice to convey emotion and resolve. Your vocal control and ability to seamlessly switch from low to high notes attest to your extraordinary vocal capability, even within the same line. This allows a range of emotional expressions in your performance and adds complexity to the piece. Moreover, the mastery of melisma in the alto register demonstrates your exceptional vocal abilities and deep understanding of vocal technique. It is a feature that distinguishes you as a performer and significantly enriches your performance. Melisma is a technique that can be challenging to master, as it requires excellent vocal control, proper breathing, and precision in hitting each note. Despite your young age, you, Laura, have repeatedly demonstrated that you can execute complex melismas with apparent ease. This characteristic precedes any high-class artist. This can become even more challenging in the alto register, as the lower notes require a different voice control than the higher ones. However, you appear to manage this difficulty successfully. The execution of the melisma in the alto register is accurate. It seems effortless, which is a testament to your vocal talent. The song, in general, is an anthem of hope and resilience and, at the same time, a reminder that the past can shape us, but it shouldn't define us. Laura, with your powerful and emotion-filled voice, you do an excellent service of bringing these complex themes to life.
LOVED it from the first word. While the metafor in the chorus is amazing as many have commented, I also feel all other words are spot on. Anyone who has had it tough can relate.. When the morning Brings a new day But the old ways Cloud my mind Voices whisper And my failures Feel like mountains I can’t climb Regret is weighing heavy on my mind All I want to do is let it go … Won’t the pain of Yesterday’s sorrows Steal my tomorrows anymore Lift me up to a life I’m called to And all these dreams you made me for Moving on forgetting what’s behind Keep me focused on the finishing line I like how the start of the song is dark and gloomy. The past is getting in the way of what ahead of you. You realize that you are destined for something greater. You finally make the decision and commitment to forget the pain of the past and focus on the future. This is simply how life is for every single one of us at some point, yet you putting words on it and singing it so beautifully makes it SO POWERFUL!
I love you Laura, I have followed you since your AGT audition at 13 but, I hate to admit it, I prefer when you sing like this. Your voice is so sweet and like honey. That was absolutely beautiful. I do not think there exists a superlative to describe just how beautiful you sounded in this song. Truly, a gift from God. Amen!
Laura, Ken Black is right. This is Grammy-level performance in every way. Your vocal quality on such lyrics to "Leave the Past" go beyond the beauty of sheer poetry; they are inspired, even majestic in scope. THANKS. ... And, I must add, the graphic design is also wonderful. Your face radiates confidence and the dynamic features matched to volume under the title are unique and well done. I know the designer and will send a personal note to Daniel Bondas directly.
Continui să dăruiești bucurie și să ne atingi sufletul cu glasul minunat și credința ta manifestată în cântec !💓 Frumoasă compozitie ! 👏🏼💖 Dumnezeu să te binecuvânteze,iubita noastră LauraBretan !❤

I just love your voice and music style so much! It is really an artistry.. painting a canvas of emotions. God bless you and may God be glorified thru you.
Hi Laura! Just one word. Amazing! There are thousands and thousands of people out here that are so proud of you and what you have accomplished. I am such a fan. I look forward to every new song and video, and I hope to see you Live somewhere. Thank you for being you and giving me a smile.❤👍

O wow, everything is awesome, your voice has a beautiful tone, and the lyrics are powerful :)
Very helpful lyrics...Thank you..One of the most meaningful songs i've ever heard...
LOVED it from the first word.
While the metafor in the chorus is amazing as many have commented, I also feel all other words are spot on. Anyone who has had it tough can relate..
When the morning
Brings a new day
But the old ways
Cloud my mind
Voices whisper
And my failures
Feel like mountains
I can’t climb
Regret is weighing heavy on my mind
All I want to do is let it go
…
Won’t the pain of
Yesterday’s sorrows
Steal my tomorrows anymore
Lift me up to a life I’m called to
And all these dreams you made me for
Moving on forgetting what’s behind
Keep me focused on the finishing line
I like how the start of the song is dark and gloomy. The past is getting in the way of what ahead of you. You realize that you are destined for something greater. You finally make the decision and commitment to forget the pain of the past and focus on the future.
This is simply how life is for every single one of us at some point, yet you putting words on it and singing it so beautifully makes it SO POWERFUL!
