Thank you SO MUCH for the incredible support! ✨
She just WRECKED us and then just casually said “ Thats that one”
Right??!
Shyness issues or stage fright. She completely killed it but being shy or nervous can cause that kind of response to your own art after its over. I suffer from the same thing, I've almost unintentionally apologized after my own songs on stage, its a bad habit if you're a shy and introverted performer. But its better to say something rather than nothing to kill that silence in between songs.
after this performence i was badly in need of this comment 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😭 * back to my cry *
It’s the “thats that one” for me too sis bc what??? How you gone end THAT performance like that as if it just wasn’t nothing?!? 😩 lmaooo Yebba DOES THIS.. ain’t no thang
The thing that stuck out to me about her performance was the “wailing” notes. I’ve never heard some one accurately make pain sound beautiful. It’s haunting and makes you feel anger and sadness at once. Insanity
I agree. Yebba's wailing parts remind me of Fado (Portuguese folk signing by mostly women).
Spot on.
I nearly cried hearing those wailing notes!!!🥺😭
The wails are very much like the sounds of the great Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan - the Quwali singer.
Yours words are so acurate. Thanks for translating my thoughts into words. :)
I'm 55 year old construction worker and I cry every time hearing this.
@@wooshbait36 HA HA HA
@@wooshbait36 It hurts you spending that much time in a satire/irony mode. Enough is fine. But too much will tip you over on one of your axises and you'll land upside down and stick where you land. Which will make you lose eyes on other sources of pain in your life. I've been there. I wish you the best.
@@wooshbait36 i smell insecurity
Your a real man with empathy
❤
I think it is admirable that you let yourself be so moved in front of a camera. Beautiful tears. Thanks for sharing and giving a piece of authenticity to TH-cam.
normalize crying, especially for men. i've cried to so many different reactions to this lol, but it makes me cry harder when i see someone else crying
Yep, this one makes me weep every damn time. Check out the young Norwegian singer/songwriter/producer Aurora. Between her lyrics and her voice and her unique style she rips me open and then heals me every time. If you can listen to and watch her perform without weeping "You are a better man than I am, Gunga Din". Start with the three songs she sang (one cover and two originals) at the 2015 Nobel Peace Prize concert when she was 19.
Amen
I agree, I love that she can be herself in front of an audience and express the emotions. I felt the same way about this song
That’s how this song does us
"She did, I think, consciously, sacrifice, uh, many times in that performance, sacrifice vocal technique, for the way that she had to tell the story." Most insightful comment I've been waiting to hear.
It's so hard not to notice that YEBBA was able to take real cries and sobs and elevate them into music.
Agreed. It's pure brilliance.
YEBBA performing "My Mind" at Sofar NYC on September 30th, 2016.
The first time I heard this song, I thought it was about the overwhelming anguish felt when one is confronted by irrefutable evidence of their lover’s infidelity.
But then, I read that Yebba’s mother committed suicide about a week after she sang her first original song; causing "My Mind" to take on new meaning representing mental health.
As if the mental illness was taking her mother away 🥺.
She says her artist name was chosen to honor her mother, who she said "always called her by the nickname" (her name Abbey written backwards) as a child.
In memory of her mother, Yebba twitted in Sep 26, 2020 "This the last time ima respond about “My Mind”. Most of you read as “wow love the way she portrays pain in her voice”... that’s not what it was. It was worship, freedom, Hope really. And I never re-recorded it because I respect the Presence in that room. Let’s move on together."
and then "Later that year, my mom committed suicide. I went back and dedicated the performance to her as it was my last before she passed. So that’s where it will always stay. Don’t ask me to recreate it no mo. You ain’t gotta have respect but pls, have some soul. Let’s move on together."
Well, she is literally crying without shedding a tear!
So strong. So powerful.
“That’s that one”
“Honouring your voice to express yourself.” What a great piece of advice.
Literally me, too, girl. 😭 I knew you had no idea what you were about to witness. Lol
This performance is one of the most intensely emotional ever. The skill needed to be that raw but still sing is tremendous. Those *cries*. Yebba has said she won't ever record the song because this is the definitive performance of it, and she wants to honor what happened in that room.
And that protective thing--I've seen so many reactors say things like, "Tell me who hurt her, I'mma come for them". It really does bring out that feeling.
I just learned her mom committed suicide like a week before this performance. I’m speechless
@@lnev7818 it actually happened after
It's that gospel "anybody know what I'm talkin about?" - cue every single person watching this performance nodding along. Yep, we feel that Abbey, we've all felt that.
As a musician, I 100% love that she sees this as the definitive edition. I don't think you can perform this any better. Truly a magical performance. I just love it so much.
every time i hear this song it breaks me. i was cheated on after 7 years with my partner and ive been trying to pick up the pieces ever since. "i sure wont stay, but i'll be damned if i leave". the amount of times those words flew through my head. this song is so real. and your reaction is so genuine. thankyou for this.
Man, get over it. It was not meant to be. Gotta love yourself first.
@@e1977k Maybe don't be dismissive of someone else's experience??? Not necessary, and not helpful.
@@e1977k everyone heals at their own pace, and if you get over being cheated on after less than a month, you are probably a sociopath... telling someone to "get over it" is probably the worst, and most childish advice to give to someone dealing with any type of heartache. now id be more keen to agree if this happened to me like a year ago, but man... let people heal how they heal best.
@@c0mbatw0mbat95 Sorry, I understand. Trying to pick up pieces ever since sounded much longer than a month. Month is ok ofc. I didn’t mean it in the way, that you should move on next day. I meant that people that got cheated on, are often feeling it’s their fault and they’re are not worth of love. Because it happened unexpected, when they were fully in love and it’s easier for the cheater. Just wanted to say, it’s not like that, you were great partner and they are the one losing, even it’s hard to admit it now.
I guess you should join the man's club. Shut out the world the people and their woes, let them suffer on their own time and enjoy your life on yours.
Almost every vocal coach that react to this performance just analysis the technique and they forgot the rawness of it all. Thank for sharing and to let your feelings come out.
Omg yes. Like obviously she has all the technique in the world. Sometimes you just gotta let go and let your heart come before your head. The realness is everything
That song is just so REAL...but it was YOU crying that broke me. :(
I never cried like this listening to a song. It's beautiful but it drew out the emotion from me. I still can't believe it. 😭😭😭
I reacted the same way I saw this. Yebba makes you feel the pain.
You are my favourite 😍. I only watch this song now combined with your reaction.
Not to knock other vocal coaches who have reacted to this, but you're the first one to I think really grasp and replicate the nuances to her vocal styling right off the bat. Talented stuff.
This. Yes.
❤❤❤ I concur
Yes!! This
“She deserves all of the vowels!” Thanks for that bit of comic relief. It was needed. I’ve seen this performance many times, so I knew what to expect…from her. Didn’t expect to be so moved by you watching it. Maybe I need a cup of tea now.
We all need a cup of tea now and then. Especially after a cup of tears. 👋
@@sarakaster true.. so true
And, yes! She deserves a faithful lover!
Finally, someone let themselves feel during a reaction completely! Kudos to you! I tear up every time I watch her video! 😭
I should never have agreed to let one of my undergrads put the original on in one of my music production classes. I cried in front of the whole class. I'm a big hairy 49 year-old biker. I still can't watch it without crying, and now I'm crying watching you crying at the same bloody video. (Great channel by the way!! Subbed!!)
Watching her make the fairy Voice Mother cry made a 41 year old man cry. Another brilliant video, I have learned so much about singing from this channel. Great stuff!
that's exactly what was happend to me. But...I've listend to the original before! I cried! It was a emotional hurricane...
And then I found and watched this vid. And then I cried again! Because of Yebba! And Because of seeing the same very unexpacted emotional reaction from another person! So...I cried double the intensaty....you know what I mean...And in the and I laughed out loud.... because everyone is so emotional...
🤣🤣🤣🤣👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
mindblowing! Awesome!
This song has always made me tear up, it hurts to hear.
I've been watching this for a few years now. Abbey's voice on this song... and this SONG is the most emotion I've ever heard. When ever I hear it I break down crying. Just can't help myself.
This performance. Incredible. Every single time.
Never heard this song, but can confirm I have already shed multiple tears. I mean, God damn... 😭
Your reaction was absolutely an influence, too. Thank you for being truly genuine, I needed that. Subscribed.
What makes an artist great, I think, is their ability to connect emotionally with their audience more than their specific technique, or perhaps their ability to apply technique for that greater purpose. That is why I hate to hear that a singer has done something "wrong" technically, and what I love about your critques. Your own openness to emotion, your own vulnerability, allows you to see the performance beyond the technique. You have an incredible technical understanding and such a clear way of explaining it, but it is your character that allows you share the art of the performance. I always come away with something from your reactions that allows me to better appreciate the artist, both technically and artistically. Thank you!
I had the same exact reaction listening to this performance the first few times.
She starts explaining how she felt watching Yebba performance and all I heard was how I was feeling watching her react to it. Save and protect this beautiful angel at all costs.
This is the best reaction to this beautiful live performance Ive seen on TH-cam ❤
Big fat tears... streaming down my face. Need a good cry now and then 🥺
You are - by far - the best voice analyst on YT. You sing better than anyone you react to; as evidenced by your ability to replicate the sounds they make and explain what or how to accomplish them. Thank You!
Well done video. I admire you for crying and teaching others the importance of feeling the music rather than just listening to the music.
I'm so glad to see someone moved by this the way I am. I can't watch this without crying either.
I'm a bit of a music nerd (though def not a singer lol) and I could analyse all the nuances for hours, but it's so hard to not be taken by the raw emotion of this performance.
Thanks for making me feel normal for crying at this!
Thank you for introducing me to the incredible experience that is YEBBA. Jesus! Where have I been?
As an amateur guitarist myself, that guitarist comment at 12:11 got me cheering, thanks for giving him a well deserved shout-out, it was uplifting after shedding some tears along with you during the more emotional parts.
Girl I'm a 43 year old dude and I've heard this song 25 times and we 100% cried together. This song just breaks people.
Your talent, knowledge, and passion for music are a joy to experience. You appreciate every artist for their individual identity and are able to instruct without criticizing or minimizing the artist’s achievements. I’m so glad to have found your channel!
Haven't cried with a song this much since Johnny Cash's Hurt.
Oh my god. SAME!!!! Those two songs are like a strangely beautiful punch in the guts.
This is such a great contrast to that one too, since that song comes from such a relatively technically uncomplicated place
Best reaction on this song on the internet. Thx for that. ❤️
Love this song on so many levels. Your reaction does it true justice.
p.s. The backstory to this actual performance and the days surrounding it is heartbreaking.
Could you share the backstory please? I tried to find it but couldnt
@@leilaaarden She lost her mother to suicide.
Truly devastating.
Yebba is INCREDIBLE. Been a fan for years. The first time I watched this performance, I was literally moved to tears too. This is the best reaction to her performance that I’ve seen. Well done!!❤️
Most empathetic and accurate breakdown of this GEM of a song. Thank you!! Truly immeasurable beauty this song from Yebba. Absolutely stunning.
Beautiful reaction!
I have never heard that much pain in a voice.... Dear God what a performance. I'm wrecked
I love how you connect with the emotion of the music. Music IS emotion. It touches us in ways that nothing else can. I saw this in your Diana Ankudinova reaction. There are other "vocal coaches" who somehow miss the human component of the music. Keep it up, you are the best.
I just heard of Yebba last night, and I cried like a baby while listening to this song....Great honest reaction..
Ilove your,empathy with the singer
Your reaction was a breath of fresh air ... unaffected, natural, emotional 🥰
Soooooooo... Yebba's performance was one thing... like a HUGE thing... but your reaction and breakdown of her performance was ANOTHER thing! The combination of hearing her singing and watching you cry AS she was singing was frankly one of the most profound things I have experienced in a long time. I absolutely adore how every one of your reaction videos are so technical, and yet so flippin' EMOTIONAL as well! Thank you for not only sharing your expertise, but for sharing your emotions as well! YOU'RE AWESOME!
I’ve watched this video a thousand times and fall in love with it more every time. But this time, watching you cry, broke me. I found myself in tears as well.
Gosh, always want to kiss the tears from your eyes. You are one of the most emotional TH-camr I know. And therefore on of my most beloved.
I'm not crying...you're crying.
Another great video and analysis, full of information on how to get those great vocal sounds and - most importantly - which type of thongs there are besides Speedos. From one goof-off to another...thank you. ;-)
LOL @ "out of the well" effects. Not only do you explain techniques, you entertain. I'm not a singer, but you make me wish I was. I love how you appreciate the talent and beauty of the craft in a truly genuine manner.

I’ve watched so many reactions to this Yebba performance. Yours is my favourite.
This is how you feel music! Love the vocals but I love watching you be touched 10 times more!
This is music!
Wow, you’ve got a wonderful, soulful voice yourself! This is my first time seeing one of your videos…I’d love to hear you perform. Great analysis re. Yebba!
She’s a magical voice witch! Lol In all seriousness, it’s really a gifting to be able to make people feel that emotionally connected to a performance. Few performers are able to bring their audiences along for the ride.
She did it masterfully!
Honestly the best and realest and honest reaction I have ever seen!!!! I love your content and your soul!
Wow this was literally me the first time listening/watching this performance; just streams coming down my face. Great reaction n feedback!
Ok but I think I’m getting addicted to watching Yebba reaction videos. I loved this. Your reaction was brilliant. Achingly brilliant. And thanks for the nerdy bit too! Isn’t Yebba just mesmerising.
Girl this was my exact reaction when first hearing this track....like...how you gone make us BAWL and then say "that's that one"....... GIRL!! 😭😭😭😭
Right!!! Lmaooo like she does this... it ain’t nothing to her 😂😂
Your sensitivity is touching to see. 👀Your critique is interesting to hear. 👂
I think you are the best vocal teacher ever....and also have beatiful soul to understand the artist....i love your sence of humor and perfect knowledge of vocal technique p.s.you can sing like dimash OMG 🙏🙌🎤🎼🎶💪but more emotional ❤️
That performance in my favorites till I die and beyond. Its not just a song. This is emotional weapon of mass destruction)
watching you feel this so deeply was beautiful... the mind and heart of an artist. i need more of that in my world. not much of that to be found in the corporate universe in which I spend most of my time.
and your voice... wow.
I came here after watching your reaction to Seventeen because I was intrigued by your genuine vibes. I love this reaction as well, you let yourself feel, and it’s admirable.
You are the absolute best teacher/vocalist/musical analyst on the internet. PERIOD.
Yebba is one of my favorites! Absolutely incredible performance 🤯
How am I just now hearing this?!!! Wow…I’m speechless and
emotionally gutted. She’s just incredible.
The ending of this video was hilarious! That's exactly how i feel too. lol
Wow, that was a lot more emotional than I expected, what a performance of storytelling. Love your reactions!
Awesome
Your tears are absolutly beautiful and precious.😢
You're the cutest ever girl. Love how much you were moved by this and also didn't analyse her technical failings, cos honestly her performance was literally perfect even if not technically perfect.
I cried the exact same way. Truly cried. She opened up a decades old wound and made it feel like yesterday. Her emotions pour out of her.
Oh my god thank you so much for this reaction, this is the first time I've seen one of your videos and I want to applaud you on your honesty, transparency and amazing breakdown on this performance. This is one of my favourite performances ever and seeing you analyze it, while keeping the emotion behind the song in mind, is just amazing. I highly suggest Lara Fabian's performance of "Je suis malade", there's a video with French and English subtitles to it that I think you'd enjoy and love to analyze. Sending you aaaalll the love from the Netherlands ❤❤❤❤
I am so late to hearing this amazing lady named YEBBA but without you I wouldn't have enjoyed her vocals without watching you. Thank you!
I want to hug her and comfort her so much.
Your sobbing through half of the performance? A mirror image of me, for sure, every single time I watch it 😂
Also, your analysis is beautiful and gave words to the feeling I experienced while listening to her.
Also, your voice and technical breaking down of the abilities of Yebba were both, as equally gorgeous. :)
Bless you fairy voice mother 😂
Loved the curses at the end, especially. Very fairy like 😂
Your reaction was stellar. You picked up perfectly on the much needed balance between drawing the listener in by showing emotion vs having a perfect vocal performance. The cracks and breaks were on purpose. Looking forward to more reactions!
Thank you for being fragile authentic and quirky never stop being your amazing self.
Can you please do a plug of your item music - I would love to hear you sing (you are clearly a vocal boss).
Where can I find your singing where?! Tell meee
Check out the channel tab here and you can go to Lolli wren which is TFVM other channel where she’s posting her own vocals!
She does a cover that will, if you give it time to breath, will have you drunk with awe....
Your videos give me life. Your ability to mimic singers is incredible! ❤️❤️
you’ve GOT to react to her Tiny Desk concert
The depth in her performance is astounding. You can feel the pain and see it, as she's singing. She has felt the heartbreak that this man has caused and it comes through in her voice. 😢
“My mind, my mind, you will always be mine..” such a powerful and moving performance.
That old “melisma that breaks upward into a falsetto “ thing … impressive breakdown in many ways ☺️ Bless you for wanting to protect her 🙏
omg, this young lady is wonderfully intelligent and so special, wish I was 20 years younger
At least you'll have your eWaste...Ben
I love your reaction to this beautiful song. Very similar to mine own.
I have never heard of this singer before. This was absolutely beautiful and a heart wrenching. I love watching your honest reaction. Of course, seeing you cry, makes me want to give you a big hug. ❤
I absolutely loved your reaction to this - I usually try and avoid vocal coaches reaction to this song, because I feel like majority try and critique the song in a technical term and suggest what they would do differently from a professional point of view to make the song “perfect.” As a consumer, you know what I would change about this performance? Nothing. Not a damn thing. You could hear her heartache and vulnerability, and that sets her aside from so many of the polished artists you hear these days on the radio. The lyrics were so relatable, and Yebba sang that for all the women (and men) who have found themselves in the exact same situation once before. My tears flow every time I hear this song.
Well that was awesome! - Both the song and your reaction/analysis.. We laughed, we cried, we lived :)
Watching you weep to YEBBA really sums up this song for me hahaha. 100%.
Seeing you sing with distortion blew my mind! I want to learn to do that!
Hi Jim! You can actually apply for lessons with The Fairy Voice Mother via:

It’s incredible all the technicalities and details that only another singer can really understand.
You help me to appreciate the amazing gifts that singers have.
i cried with you....great reaction..thank you
I'm so glad the internet broke the hold of record company filtering and dismissal of so many great voices. I found some really amazing ones on Twitch. If it weren't for your Twitch I never would have known better. Thanks for you.
Yebba was crushing, so good. Great reaction. Same here😭
My favourite reaction video so far, loved your emotional reaction and you analysed her so well you saw through her emotional performance instead of picking on her vocal imperfections cause i didn't think she was trying to impress anyone with her vocal technics she was telling a story and pouring her heart out
Fairy voice mother, first of all you look fantastic and fuchsia. Second of all I watch a lot of vocal teachers react. I just find it fascinating. But your explanation of things and the way that you experience the performance holistically, a really unique. Youre delightful
Wow. Pure expression. I shared your tears.
Yebba gave everything in this song. I love her voice!😍😍😍
