I read somewhere that they asked the audience to be quiet and not clap, etc so they could professionally record her. It is a masterpiece! Great reaction!
I like those types of atmospheres (those acoustic performances, especially like MTV Unplugged) because it's less of a distraction and you can really absorb the words and feel what the artist is singing about as they paint the mental picture for you. It feels less like a stage performance and more of an intimate experience. 💞
I can't tell you how many times I've watched Yabba sing the song and every time she says I work so hard to keep you satisfied I get goosebumps because I've been there done that😢😢😢 this is one of the most powerful emotional performances you will ever see in my opinion she laid it all on the line for everyone to hear❤❤ and can we talk about her vocal gymnastics because that's the only word I can use to describe the levels of her voice❤❤❤❤ when I first heard her sing it I couldn't listen for a while because it just triggered so many things but I find if I watch other people react it takes some of the emotions away from me❤❤❤❤
Billy, It's okay. I have watched this oh about 40 times and still get so emotional. I am fighting the tears as I type this!! Thank you for your service and this reaction!
Yebba has been an outspoken advocate for mental health awareness and support. Her mother died by suicide about a week after Yebba sang her first original song, causing "My Mind" to take on new meaning representing mental health. ... In memory of her mother, Yebba gave the song away free through her website. Other names: Abbey Smith; Yebba Smith Occupation: Singer-songwriter; Backing vocalist Born: Abigail Elizabeth Smith; January 16, 1995 (age 26); West Memphis, Arkansas, U.S
Gotta listen to all her stuff only a few things. An album soon i think. EVERGREEN give me chills EVERYtime! She has a song with sam smith and ed sheeran and other artists.
They did NOT deserve our queen, Yebba!!!! Check out Evergreen as well! A week after My Mind performance was recorded, her mom committed suicide. Yebba grew up a pastors kid. Evergreen is a song to her mom.
Some people don’t understand runs,I love them I think you have an outer body experience when you do that,I’m no singer but I appreciate beyond good talent when I hear it.
Yaaay!! Finallly! So happy you did a reaction to this song, such a beautiful & emotional song, I get goosebumps everytime I hear it. I really look forward to your reactions, keep up the great work. 🥰🥰👍😁🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Believe me, watching this live without even being prepared for something like that is breathtaking. You wouldn't probably react either. You could hear a pin drop in there and that's how it should be. This was a vocally emotional explosion that nobody was expecting.
I couldn't agree more with everything you said. I discovered this song a couple years ago. I have listened to this for over 2 hours straight on repeat it's that good.
Finally I've been waiting for you to react to Abby (yebba) she's incredible her voice and the soul she has in her voice ❤️ and thank u so much for this reaction I was throwing shoe's at my TV screen when I 1st seen this mad at the audience🤬 and because she sang that song like 🤯 fantabulous 😂💯May you react to yebba evergreen, gravity w/ Clarke Beckham, or where do you go - from later... With Jools Holland
@@BillyYouSoCrazy Sorry I'm late to reply been busy life is crazy. And ok thank you for letting me know hope you have a great, blessed, and safe rest of your year yebba evergreen is good or where do you go from later with Jools Holland
"That crowd didn't deserve that" 🤣🤣 Best comment, and SO TRUE! I think she had them hypnotized or something because I can't understand how there was absolutely NO reaction from ANYONE in that crowd.. not from ONE. SINGLE. PERSON! Like.. what? Love the reaction. I believe I requested you to react to this a good while ago. I was blown away when first coming across Yebba too. She's incredible.
Good reaction! That was a powerful and gut-wrenching performance and Yebba left it all on that stage. It was almost hard to watch and listen to. I agree about the crowd. They seemed pretty subdued after witnessing someone bare their soul. I read an earlier comment about the crowd being asked not to clap and such. That's all well and good during the recording of the performance, but after she and the guitarist were done they deserved more appreciation than they received in my opinion.
Fact about this song:her mother committed suicid the week before this performance and she just off a relationship same week the song is about those 2.I’m surprised she even up there but all those emotions are coming back to her while singing this song.
Powerful vocals, deep lyrics?🤔💡 👉 One word 'Faouzia'!!!!! Faouzia top picks: Tears of gold(stripped version), Bad Dreams(piano version), Born without a heart. All are amazing!😍 You can't go wrong! One listen and you'll become obsessed!🤘🔥 Guarantee! Keep it going!🖒 Please and thank you!🙏 Never change! The Pack always got your back!😘
yep. that is exactly how it feels.. when your someone gives away what is supposed to be yours...the ONE thing God gave us for just each other... she portrays it so well.. perfect words... and yes.. im still with my man.... i didnt give up.. id rather have him, than her take what is mine.... ill be DAMNED>>>
Before watching the vid, based on the comments: NO. I would mot dare to take a louder brearh & would be so pissed if anyone were to make noises while this heartbreak is going on on stage. Ok now to watch 😋
They were Recording dude! This is the official recording & from what I've read this place is well known for it. You don't need to have a Cow because you think the audience was slack. If you jumped around noisy with excitement, like you reckon -you would have been the odd one out, Outside! I love this song, it's makes me cry every time I hear it. Yebba is a very creative & talented young lady & I wish her all the best for her future. TY for your Reaction Billy.
Idc if they were recording. I woulda still be losing it because she sings good. When I get excited you will know. Just because my reaction isn’t your reaction doesn’t mean your better than me Right? So I still stand behind what I said 🤷🏾♂️ but thanks for watching ❤️
@@BillyYouSoCrazy I didn't mean for you to think I was better than you. Sorry if I came across like that, I enjoy your channel. I thought by telling you about the 'Sofar' place you would understand why the crowd were so quite. I respect you & am sorry I offended you, Thank you for your Reaction to Yebba-'My Mind'.
the audience is in a trance..... they don't wanna make a sound to interrupt her ....... they're like a psychiatrist sitting quietly listening to a client
Here’s another reaction to this song, but this time in dance. Don’t be turned off by the phrase “interpretive dance”. This guy is incredible. th-cam.com/video/oVInhaiFwiI/w-d-xo.html
a lot of the SOFAR events are recorded and the audience are asked to hold applause till the end of a performance , but the crowd was a little to subdued at the end I agree
I dont undestand why the crowd should be crying out?? Shouting out in the middle of a perfomance like this, based on her bearing her soul, would be selfish...how some come people think their pain is somehow more important than someone elses pain? In a charged environment, people who think they have the right to spoil it for others can be selfish, childish and plain ignorant...tbh.
I think some of the women in the audience - realize that song is what they've done to some guy. So they don't have much emotion to the song. I'm reaching??? 🤔 you never know. This song should be link to #modernwomen 2022
Love it when you show emotion and it doesn't matter what it is because it's so real! I hope you have on your list to react to Clark Beckham - Gravity feat. Yebba by John Mayer th-cam.com/video/a9Z_ftojuO4/w-d-xo.html Thank you 😘

Yup. Attendees of Sofar events are asked to stay quiet so that the production team can capture clean audio.
Thank you for clearing that up. :)
“oh she a SINGER singer”
PRECISELY 👏🏻
First time I heard this I felt like I was eavesdropping on a private conversation I had no business listening to.
Amen
When you said “give Him the highest praise” I felt that! I’ve never heard anyone truly wail like that outside of church. I am sobbing!!!!
When she took the mic off the stand you knew it was about to go down.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched Yabba sing the song and every time she says I work so hard to keep you satisfied I get goosebumps because I've been there done that😢😢😢 this is one of the most powerful emotional performances you will ever see in my opinion she laid it all on the line for everyone to hear❤❤ and can we talk about her vocal gymnastics because that's the only word I can use to describe the levels of her voice❤❤❤❤ when I first heard her sing it I couldn't listen for a while because it just triggered so many things but I find if I watch other people react it takes some of the emotions away from me❤❤❤❤
Thanks to you this is my 1st time hearing this...the way you can hear her soul crying through her voice is just....wow....
Billy, It's okay. I have watched this oh about 40 times and still get so emotional. I am fighting the tears as I type this!!
Thank you for your service and this reaction!
I sobbed the first time I watched this. And every time since.
They told the crowd to be quiet for the recording. But I would be crying so loud
Gravity, John Mayer song covered by Yebba and Clark Beckham, will take you to church!
That shit blew my mind! Love him too.
Yes, yes, and also yes.
Yes yes yes its my fav
Oh yeah. I’ve been waiting for that one to be able to download. It’s a breathtaking duet and they are both on the same level vocally. It’s amazing
Finally!!! I always feel like I'm about to pass out when I hear this
They were hypnotized!🎶👠🎤👠🎶
Yes sir Clark Beckham and Abbey Smith (YEBBA) singing GRAVITY. It's so good.
Yay!!! FINALLY. Yebba - Evergreen...ah-mazing.
Yebba has been an outspoken advocate for mental health awareness and support.

The audience is in a trance. They are mesmerized by her vocals. In my opinion, that’s the only reason why they’re so quiet.
I feel the pain here. such raw emotion! She;s inctredable
Gotta listen to all her stuff only a few things. An album soon i think. EVERGREEN give me chills EVERYtime! She has a song with sam smith and ed sheeran and other artists.
Worship..yessss!!!
They did NOT deserve our queen, Yebba!!!! Check out Evergreen as well!

Some people don’t understand runs,I love them I think you have an outer body experience when you do that,I’m no singer but I appreciate beyond good talent when I hear it.
I don’t understand!! I’m confusion at this point!! Same 😂
I love watching this reaction over and over again! Billy's stank faces and respect for YEBBA are unmatched !!
I'm so happy you finally reacted to Yebba.
That crowd did NOT deserve that.
I’m with you, I said...”WHY AND HOW ARE PEOPLE QUIET?!!!, I’m over here losing my damn mind. Eargasm every time I hear her.
deepest praise!
I love finding new artists (to me) thank you!
This shit makes me cry every single time. You can feel her pain right away.
Yaaay!! Finallly! So happy you did a reaction to this song, such a beautiful & emotional song, I get goosebumps everytime I hear it. I really look forward to your reactions, keep up the great work. 🥰🥰👍😁🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
I love your reaction @Billyysc
and I agree with you on there reaction or non reaction. I love that you are real and that is why I subscribed to you!
It hits everyone. Those who experienced, and those too who caused such pain
Thanks for finally reacting to this song. I suggested it a very long time ago.
Sorry for the delay!
@@BillyYouSoCrazy That's ok. I'm patient. Better late than never.

The crowd was told they had to be quiet because they were recording it. The crow blew up after the recording stopped.
“YOU BETTER GIVE HIM THE HIGHEST PRAISE!!😬”9:30

This performance might be GOATED
"Better get your Mary J. Blige on" xD

Fact about this song:her mother committed suicid the week before this performance and she just off a relationship same week the song is about those 2.I’m surprised she even up there but all those emotions are coming back to her while singing this song.
No this is not true. Her mother committed suicide shortly after this performance.

You better react to Yebba 'Evergreen'!
It was about growing up with church beside her parents and then her mother's suicide happened.
Please react to her song Evergreen! She also did an incredible cover of Lucky with a group called ThirdStory, and they are equally perfect 🥰
That’s funny because by the end of the song I’m pissed like who the hell hurt this woman.
Smoke.
"That crowd didn't deserve that..." smh
yup
Audience was told to be quiet for the recording.....
