Whoops! Reuploaded because I accidentally posted the Instagram-filtered-non-HD version. Seriously, thank you all for all of the love and support this year. Strongly recommend visiting my insanely talented brother's channel if you haven't already! He made this whole thing possible and I love him for it :)
I started following you (and the family) when I heard your version of Fields of Gold. Till this day, I'm impressed by your talent. Good vibes from Argentina.
Matt does not get enough credit for his guitar work. I have been playing for over 50 years and I am impressed. Not flashy but always ROCK solid and well nuanced.
ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8nUhuPuMiG4.html Sir, hear this guy play i think he is 16, one of the best guitarrists ive heard. he is so good that the judge made him a participant, he wasnt even trying to get in the show
I'm in love with her voice. Her pitch...that break in her voice ..I don't know what it is but I hope she has a very long singing career and isn't ruined by the "industry". Amazingly talented family. Every one of them!
What makes a great singer is that they're always recognizable. You always know when Dolly is singing and in the same vein, you always know when Julianne is singing. A unique voice that really makes the music jump to life. Love it.
I am an old man and the sound of Julianne's voice makes me cry. That hasn't happened since Our Lady of the Bronx Laura Nyro The Great. God bless you and your entire family.
Matt is so unassumingly competent that no one notices how excellent a guitar player he is. You are definitely a troupe of excellent musicians, but I think Matt is likely the most underrated of the group. I just really enjoy all of you. And you like to push the envelope a little, which is also very cool. Two thumbs up!
I totally agree! He isn't featured very often, though it always turns out well when he is. But he's the guy that brings the "pro" to professional. It's like few people notice the drummer, but where would rock be without him?
After listening to this at least 6 times in a row, all I can say is that it's perfect! Juliannes voice and Matt's guitar skills are over the top! She has one of the most unique and distinctive voices on RU-vid and she nailed this song!
They are all so incredibly talented! I’m a Katie fan, but I can’t hear enough of Julienne, having trouble finding new words to describe this amazing young lady! The magic of her voice is like a spiritual experience! I have been fighting severe depression for several years after having cancer and I am finding an inner peace when I can clear my head and focus on Julienne sing. All the meds the doctors have thrown at me the last six years hasn’t been able to do this! Praise God above for the gifts he has blessed the Petersen family with, as well as providing the mechanism of RU-vid to deliver their ministry in a way that all of us can have this experience! If not for RU-vid I probably would have never known of these wonderful people!
Love Elton and his music, cooked for him many times. Just found the group through this song and can't stop playing it. Hauntingly good version by Julianne. Binging the rest of the videos now. Already have tickets with the fam for our first concert in Grapevine, July 3. Fingers crossed we get to hear this live.
Quite the young lady and a fantastic family. It’s worth the trip to Branson Missouri to listen to perform in person, and enjoyed visiting with the family afterwards. Thanks for a great vacation
It doesn't need to be perfect. That's the point of live performances and why I love them so much more than studio music. Thank you for sharing this song!
I come back here almost everyday to hear you guys' rendition of my favorite song. I wish it was available on spotify. Together with the original, this to me is the best version! Your voice sounds so good in this, Julianne. Thank you so much for sharing.
I have been thinking about making this comment for several weeks now and hope nothing is misinterpreted. Thank you Julianne for entertaining us in a way that is fun for you. Some parts of the song seem to have a sultry feel. I am NOT suggesting that Julianne change her normal participation in the Petersen Band but I find it hard not to dream several years down the road when Julianne might unleash her full potential as a solo vocalist.
After writing my comment above I have been browsing among earlier comments and finding that many of us have the same feelings about Julianne and her future. And yes I always enjoy hearing Matt when his guitar has our full attention.
Ohhhh my goodness Miss Julianne, how incredibly BEAUTIFUL! You, your amazingly unique voice and how you approach each song you sing! You are an astonishing beacon of brilliant LIGHT, in a time when others are lost, wondering in the dark! SING BABY SING!!!
Wow-That was fantastic!🙂❤️ You are a gift to music Julianne!🙏🕊 What a way to start a Monday.I don’t need caffeine this morning. Thank you sweet stuff!😎⭐️🦄☀️🔥🤘🌻🕊🦋Thank your brother also.
1975 I was senior in high school, the words mean so much when your in that decisive time of your life, you captured the feelings of that period. Great job, don't ever apologize for having the guts to try something different.
I strongly believe Julianne's music career is only just starting and even though we have been gifted with so much, there is going to be a whole lot more, honestly get so excited when any one in your family releases something new !
Every time I have a bad day and go to a dark place, I have to come back and listen to you sing. Your voice brings me back to where I can deal with everything and I just want to say thank you very much for everything you do you're awesome.
Julianne not only are you beautiful, your voice is stunning! Idk how you do it! Fantastic job! Matt also killing it as usual on the guitar! Y'all are so talented! Greatest band to grace this Earth! Thank y'all so much!!
Her voice is honest and authentic. Every time I listen to her sing, I am taken back to green country fields where I grew up. She is, as has been mentioned here before, unique and wonderful.
Such an instantly recognizable voice. Julianne could sing the phone book and I’d listen. Meanwhile Matt is playing chords I’ve never even seen before. Great stuff again
Julianne this an interesting and beautiful cover. I love how you boldly take on challenging material like this legendary song and work your unique voice to it. It reminds me of Irish singer-songwriter Janet Devlin and her mind blowing cover of Elton John’s “Your Song.” As others comment below, your two sisters have stronger more dynamic voices but yours has this special something about it. It’s really emotive. Obviously Dolores O'Riordan from Cranberries fame comes to mind. Keep doing what you’re doing. It’s such a joy to have recently discovered The Petersens and your own channel. I’m a new but passionate new fan!
Please Julianne, more solo work and more videos. Every song is a story and your voice really conveys the stories well. I always smile when I hear you sing.
Genuine and natural performance. You have such a sweet, unique voice. This was very pleasing!!! And it is absolutely wonderful to see the support the Petersen siblings give each other. Well done!
What a superb version! And what a great voice from Julianne! Goose bumps! I wish the all the Petersens including all their friens a wonderful Christmas time! Best greetings from Germany!
As I left London two weeks ago to star a foundation year at Falmouth University Cornwall England doing a film BA (Hons) course, this song sums up my feeling in so many ways and echo’s down the years when I first heard it. I think the meaning of the song comes through even more in the under produced way of just guitar and vocals. Your vocals Julianne are amazing and unique and worked so well for this song.
Julianne, Congratulations on such a great job again stretching your singing talent with classic musical choices then making them your own contemporary pieces. Thank you too Matt for encouraging and supporting your little sister in such a loving and musically supportive manner. Awesome again Petersens!!
It's all the nuances and differences in each performance and recording that make it all perfect. I'm a big fan of you and your band, Julianne and Matt.
That was really great, I love your style and I'm a real fan of your music, your singing. I am always enchanted by your charisma and your funny manner gives me pleasure. You're one of the most interesting people I've come across, even if only digitally ... but that doesn't matter, because I could easily be your grandfather from my age. Thank you so much for sharing this amazing talent with all of us. God protect you and give you a carefree life full of joy.
julianne you and your family have helped me cope with the death of my 16yr son and listening to you sing helps me during my dark times please could you do you raise me up as it is a special song to me and hearing you sing it would make it even more special
2:28 Matt looks up like "woah" anyone else notice how warm toned this whole video was? I'm very pleased with everything about this video from the sound to colors. :)
*LYRICS - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road* ------------ When are you gonna come down When are you going to land I should have stayed on the farm Should've listened to my old man You know you can't hold me forever I didn't sign up with you I'm not a present for your friends to open This boy's too young to be singing the blues So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny back toad Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road What do you think you'll do then I bet that'll shoot down the plane It'll take you a couple of vodka and tonic To set you on your feet again And maybe you'll get a replacement There's plenty like me to be found Mongrels who ain't got a penny Searching for tidbits like you on the ground So goodbye yellow brick road Where the dogs of society howl You can't plant me in your penthouse I'm going back to my plough Back to the howling old owl in the woods Hunting the horny back toad Oh I've finally decided my future lies Beyond the yellow brick road
This song is covered on RU-vid numerious times, but this one by Julianne is without any doubt one of the best. Singing the song as would it not cost any energy, so relaxed and yet so spot on............amazing.
I just love the thumbs up at the end of it. Julianne raw emotional just unbelievably beautiful. I so love the fact that you weren't trying to eye the camera it added to the the mystery and love you have for the song.
Well after many listens, WOW, what an emotional, singing to your limit artistic rendition. Don't know where you're going but Julianne there ain't no stopping you now.
Excellent work Julz! Elton's music is hardly easy but your rendition is hauntingly beautiful. All the Petersen band members have remarkable voices, but Julianne's is perhaps the most likely to send chills up your spine with how one-of-a-kind it is.
(Lol I guess we’re doin this a second time 😅) Ayyy Matt and Julianne are back at it again, but we’re missing the Port-a-pottie’s. Jk great job tho you two did amazing! Hope you had a great time back with the family!
Julianne that was lovely as always. I’ve watched many of these videos and I realised from early on that Matt is a master with the guitar. I’m just starting to play the guitar so I watch and learn and try and then cry because he makes it look so easy. Thank you for all your music. Stay safe.
I’ve only been listening to the Petersen!s for a short while. I too used to play in a similar type band. The work, practice, the behind the scenes, y’all sound amazing. Julianne voice and shy like smile is captivating. I listen to y’all all the time. Hats off to family!
Julianne you are very talented, along with your fam. The Christmas one was really good. My very Favorite is when you sang at Ellen's Wedding 💒. That was incredibly beautiful 🥰
Celine Dion, Aretha Franklin, Mariah Carey... God continues to declare His glory by creating such distinctive, beautiful voices. Among His best works in this regard is clearly Julianne Peterson.
I've always said you should never mess with a classic. I love Elton Johns music but this cover is amazing. Julieanne, your voice is haunting. The sooner you guys visit Scotland the better 😁
Nice to see you get out of your comfort zone and try new things other than blue grass. You have a genuine very nice voice. Keep up the good work and branching out of your usual bluegrass style. Your all such a talented family. Love you all from a fan in New Zealand
So glad you posted this with imperfections and all. There is something so inspiring when people show the beauty of their talents not cloaked in perfectionism. I Love this thoroughly!
