Sohyang has said in an interview that this performance before Michael Bolton was the most pleasing to her personally up to that point in her career because Michael Bolton is one of her absolutely favourite singers, and because he was so effusive in his praise for her she was satisfied that she and her team could produce similarly world class songs and performances. And hey, Michael Bolton told her she was a "vocal virtuoso" after the concert and invited her to join him for the rest of his South Korean tour. How do you beat that? Well, Michael Bolton can offer to take you on an entirely new world tour making you the featured guest--and that is _exactly_ what he did!
Unfortunately, or not, the two could not make their schedules match no matter how hard they tried and the tour never materialized. This was actually fairly depressing for Sohyang because she really wanted to go BIG TIME in the music business at that exact moment but everything seemed to conspire against her. Pneumonia problems would crop up and this has been a chronic problem for Sohyang. She would later recognize this as God's way of preventing her from getting caught up in the North American and European music industry that would have been destructive to her character at that time. Sohyang is humble enough and courageous enough to confess she had become so ambitious that she was an ugly person, short tempered with other people and not treating them with proper respect. I know, my jaw hit the floor when I read the interview too! Sohyang a _mean person?_ Say it ain't so! But we all have times where we are embarrassed at how we behaved and Sohyang is just a human being, like the rest of us.
Two years later in 2016 Sohyang was almost ready to quit the entire music business because her health problems were so bad. So she plundered her bank account and took a trip to New York and Philadelphia. In the latter city Sohyang saw a quote from President Franklin Roosevelt where he had said in his inaugural address during the Great Depression of the 1930s that "We have nothing to fear but fear itself." This proved so inspirational for her that when she got back to South Korea she entered the "King of the Masked Singers" contest in 2017 and won it on six consecutive occasions! Still the pneumonia dogged her so badly she knew it was God's way of telling her she had to reassess why she had become a singer in the first place. And that was to sing to lift people's spirits who were going through hard times. In 2018 David Foster did eight concerts with her at Tokyo's Blue Note Club and it is thought he offered to be the producer for new recordings of her. But she had been really reconsidering her purpose in life and decided the Hollywood lifestyle was the last thing she truly wanted, and in 2020 she turned down a contract offer from Sony Music US, the 2nd largest music corporation in the world! Since then Sohyang has been resolute in her decision to stay away from the music "industry" and manage her own career for the purposes she had started it all with. I for one can't express how happy I am she has chosen the path she did because she is one of the most inspirational people I have ever come across in my entire life, and I know countless others feel exactly the same way. 👌😉💖💖💖
bro it was really nice to read this
@@Thiago-ge7fk Thank you. Sohyang is, IMHO, the greatest diva of our current era. Much better than "the Trinity" so many people rave about.
That was MB yes, this entire Immortal Songs show was dedicated to his songs/covers.
world class sohyang love her i know she always make covers her own which i love about her thats why i always watch her i know she one whith this song im whith you not my fave and thats rare for me to say that shes more than a belter you should whatch the other side of her anything from the begin again just her beutiful accustic voice sorry this is long love from the uk
"she did such a good job!!!!!" Hahahah , this was performance of elite level.. 1% the best if the best
her voice is an irreplaceable gem 💎
This was from a Michael Bolton special in S. Korea. Six of the most popular Korean singers were invited to perform in a contest. Each singer had to do a Michael Bolton cover. SoHyang ( SoHyung ) was the winner.
Michael Bolton saw this performance and called it "virtuoso performance" and invited her to his concert in Korea for a duet. and they sung "prayer" & "lean on me"
PS. This stage was won the 'Best TV show award' at the Banff International Media Festival.
Phil, I totally agree with you....
I hope you won't walk away from Sohyang because of it.
Try “I will always love you”.
I'm sure it will meet your expectations.
I think you would really like her performance of "You Raise Me Up" On Immortal Songs 2.
can't wait for you guys to see "Everyone"
This performance is a prime example of how a song can be transformed by SoHyang's unique flavor!😘
Thanks for getting back to this angel. She has no peers. Of her performances that you haven't covered 'You Raise Me Up', and 'Everyone' are world class. But be sure you get a version with English captions for the best 'Everyone' experience. And her covers of Jessie J, Whitney Houston, Alicia Keys, and Ella Fitzgerald from the "Begin Again Korea' television series are angelic.
wow
I think it's now the moment to see other kind of performances of Sohyang. I suggest you "Day Day" Live with other singer of "Begin again Korea" Live. It's very satisfying. Ah and goog job you two. Ciao from Italy.

Gawd! What a powerful voice she has. Will someone get her a world wide exclusivity contract? I'm not at all into this type of music, but she really deserves to be recognised everywhere.
She was offered a contract by Sony and turned it down.
@@robertsuter4671 No kidding? Wow. With that voice she could have the world at her feet.
@@paulocarvalho6480 From what I understand of her background, this was a choice made for religious reasons. She is in her 40s now, but when she was in her 20s, she suffered from ovarian cancer and promised God that she would devote her career to uplifting audiences in smaller venues, like church settings, if He would heal her. I believe she makes her living from writing and publishing fantasy novels. Her father-in-law handles her bookings and her notoriety outside these venues comes from reaction videos. Listen to her version of Bridge Over Troubled Water.
@@robertsuter4671 Sohyang is a gospel singer and cancer survivor. So she has remained an independent artist due to her faith and health. She has no shortage of offers and gigs though.
She was offered at least 3 times by major label in US but everytime she was about to make it happen, her health put a stop on it. She is a cancer survivor. So now she continue with her own company..
We like your elegant song reviews. very thanks.🥰🥰💗💗💗 👍👍👍👍😅😅
Really nice voice, but I prefer the original. I was in my early twenties when Bill Withers' Lean On Me was realeased, so call me old fashioned. Or heck, just old will do. Anyhow, it seems really amazing to me how many songs from my youth are being re-done by young artists now. So nice that you mentioned Bill Withers as having done it originally. Talented young singer, and great reaction. Thanks!
Sohyang is actually 45 now, though this was done in 2014 when she was about 36. Sohyang is one of those age defying women who look 10 to 15 years younger than they actually are. She has been singing professionally now for 25 years.
Beyonce or whatever you said the one who covered it. It is indeed originally Michael Bolton's song. And the entire show is dedicated to Michael Bolton original songs... This show is dedicated to the writer of the songs...
No, this is originally a Bill Withers song from the early 1970s.
I love watching this guy. He has a soft heart. His eyes get teary. Such a genius reaction. ♥️
Queen Sohyang! ❤❤❤
Thanks ❤
Best singer ever. She kills this song.
love your content, well considered analysis of all your out put is much appreciated. have you considered following side tracks away from what you have watched so far. you liked ABBA, try Agnetha Falstkog, the blonde from ABBA solo, in her sixties, singing when you walk in the room, she still kills it. watch the official video. Also, from the WHO, lead singer Roger Daltry with Wilko Johnson of Dr Feelgood with "Going Back Home" or "I Keep it to Myself". Give yourslves a treat.
I have always heard her referred to as the Korean Mariah Carey.
😱😱😱 Absolutely, she is out of this world ! 👍👍👍
Do reaction for you raise me up & wild flower pls🥹🫶🏻 #sohyangfeverforever❤
@BARS & BARBELLS ... I know this is random (On this video) But I know you have done 1 Tina S. guitar cover.. was hoping you would do another one. However... Tina S. has been missing for 7 years right? Well.. She is back and all grown up with a new band. Will you PLZ react to her new band/new music video "SPIN TWICE - WHAT'S WRONG WITH ME" ... Great song!!!! Sooo glad to have her back!!!!!!!
