I hope you like her. She trained at the Juilliard school. She has gravitated toward blues/jazz. She did a number of covers with PMJ. This one was exceptional. She an Haley Reinhart did a cover of "Dear Prudence" sitting together on a couch with a single guitarist. It was also exceptional.

Been an Aerosmith (Steven Tyler) fan since the 70's jamming with them since high school. THAT arrangement, THAT performance and THAT VOICE brought tears to my eyes!!! I wonder if the band has ever witnessed that cover......because that was the most beautiful, impressive performance I've ever seen/heard!!!........BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

@dfhowes Год назад

The third time I saw Morgan live, I bought a per-performace package and we got to meet her and Doug before the show. I asked Morgan if she's ever heard back from Aerosmith's camp. I thought I saw a bit of disappointment in her face when she said no but then she quickly covered it up by saying that so many people have covered it before and they're busy people as it is.

@frotobaggins7169 8 месяцев назад

I totally agree. It makes my hair stand up and brings tears to my eyes every time I hear this performance. I honestly believe that this arrangement rivals the vintage Aerosmith original. Scott Bradlee (the pianist), the band and especially Morgan are simply amazing. While Morgan is quite obviously the super star here, Scott is the unsung hero for the arrangement and choosing Morgan that even makes this all possible.

Look up the same song covered by a young girl (12-13) named Jaydn Rylee, she does her cover with another female teen Aviv Cohen and they crush this song. I believe even Stephen Tyler himself would feel blessed and impressed to hear these young ladies cover his song and do it such justice. And yes, Morgan crushed this restyling of the song for sure.

Seen her live in a small club and she's the first artist that I've seen that got multiple standing ovations during her show. At one point she just stood there, deeply moved, beaming all over her face, revelling in the recognition. She's not only an exceptional singer but also very humble and down to earth. Really sweet personality. My favorite performance of hers with PMJ is Maps, a Maroon 5 cover. There's moments you can feel the emotions exuding from her, like anger flashing over her face. She truly is special. BTW. another vocalist you might really like is Heather Nova. Try her song "Island", it's really good. She starts it off with some kind of wailing that reminds me of a mythical siren and in live shows she sometimes prefixes that by saying "Children, don't try this at home".

@siypic 3 года назад

i would love to see her live...... she is an authentic talent in todays sea of mediocrity...........

@saschaschneider6355 3 года назад

@@siypic I don't think there's any less talent than there has been in the past. On the contrary. I wouldn't call it a "sea of mediocrity" either. Sure, theres a lot of mediocre stuff, but that's mostly because now everybody can broadcast themselves, there's fewer hurdles than there traditionally have been. But we've also seeing truly exceptional artists - maybe two decades ago, who would've known Dimash? Diana Ankudinova? So Hyang? Oh, and people calling it talent is my pet peeve. Talent only gets you so far. What we see with Morgan is skill. It's hard work. Talent is your starting point, which she probably had plenty, but she also has put the work in to become as good as she is. I don't think Juilliard can be just breezed through, no matter how much talent you have

@AhsokaJackson Месяц назад

Oh, man, I've been searching for this comment for ages! I was trying to find the name of that other artist you mentioned-Heather Nova!! I kept thinking it was under the video on PMJ's channel and went hunting there more than once. Then I finally found this in my history as I was trying other methods to find the sought-after song & artist and it occurred to me that maybe I'd seen the song here instead. Now I just need to figure out a way to keep like a list/database for stuff like this. Because it drives me nuts when I find amazing songs and/or artists but then can't remember them later on because it's just too much to keep track. I've lost and then refound the acoustic version of "You Said" by Eurielle multiple times now, as an example. 😅

@carinapusteblume9039 2 года назад

@@busfahrer09 No need to be condescending. What they ment is probably that this is one take without any cuts, like in mainstream music videos. You hear exactly the music that was played during filming, no autotune or extensive post production. Also: a lot of the times they really do just record ONE time and take that. Haley Reinhart's rendition of "Creep" is an excellent example. She hopped into the studio after work and they had very limited time in the rented studio.

@HenningUhle 2 года назад

Steven Tyler told in this song that he had this one dream when he was a three-year-old boy lying next to his father while he was playing the piano. "That's where I got the Dream On chordage from". He finished the lyrics when he was 14 years old. All he ever wanted to do was make music, that was his dream. "Dream on" is about dreaming on and on until your dreams come true. Steven Tyler has put his soul on the tablet here. And then Morgan James comes around the corner and sings this already impressive song to the ground. I've rarely been so impressed with a cover version. Especially when you know where "Dream on" comes from and what the song means to the writer Steven Tyler. Wow! Just Wow! What a great interpretation of this song. Thank you for that.

What a great reaction. I love how you analyze the technical aspects. Morgan James is a phenomenon in her own right. She is what happens when you take a Juliard School of Music Graduate in Opera with the soul of Bessie Smith, and turn her loose. I love how she tunes the chords to perfection. The glissando and slides are so difficult to do properly, and she makes it seem easy. So you know, PMJ was the brainchild of Scott Bradley. He is the pianist and arranger for all the performances. Most, if not all, of their videos are first take. All of them are a single take, with one stationary camera. Nothing fancy to interfere with the music.

Please listen to her and Haley do 'Dear Prudence' It's just them and a guitar. Unofficial video in a living room. And it's one of the prettiest things I've ever heard. Even if you can't do a vid on it... Give it a listen!!!!!!!!!!

Yes, it is perfection

@rcinsley 3 года назад

This duet is "casual perfection!" You have Morgan and Haley kicked back, barefoot, on the couch in someone's home. The acoustics are terrible. They're accompanied by a so-so acoustic guitar. Their blend is perfect and you fall in love with this classic song in a new and different way. It's a song for your playlist! The video is here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-wv_Xhzwvjyg.html

@@rcinsley - I'm not a fan or Morgan's, I actually cant stand the way she sings, but I do like her in "Dear Prudence" You're right, you do fall in love with that version, but I disagree with the acoustic being "So so" The guy is an extremely good player and really impressed me. I'm not going to go into all the reasons why, but he used a lot of different techniques that sounded great.

It is really nice to see someone who knows when to stop the video to talk. Most of the reactors just stop it whenever they want to talk.

@barrydouglas6276 Год назад

So the algoritm suggested another listen. A good enough reason to play this several times in a row, just for my pleasure.

I have to say that I so very much enjoy you reacting to vocalists. You have such a genuine appreciation and seeing someone get so excited about a piece just makes me happy. Your expertise is fantastic to boot. Keep being awesome!

Okay - I'm sold. This Morgan James is really seriously skilled! Now I see why the hostess revisited with another of her performances. I liked the dynamic range on this one better, but I tend to like dynamic range in music. And now I have to see if there is an MP3 of this. So glad I stumbled across this channel and that the audience pushed to have this singer's stuff reviewed!

Peter Gabriel and her did a set at a fair out side and she was having lots of fun and didn’t forget to sing her butt off. They did a dual between the guitar and her voice, wild good.

The rejuvenation of blue eyed soul. Righteous Brothers would be proud. She is one of my favorite female vocalists, probably my favorite in the US that has gotten next to no commercial success. my favorite song of hers, and PMJ is their version of MAPS. IMO it is PMJ and Morgan at their best. First time I listened to it I knew I knew the words and heard the versus, but I couldn't place it. I had to look it up, and was like OH YA! I liked that song back in the day. Prince actually allowed her to do one of his songs; something he was not apt to do, ever. That's how good she is. Another great one by her is "I'm Not the Only One". Want to have a great cry, listen to that one, she puts so much emotion and pain into that song, you really believe everything she is signing.

If I am not mistaken Morgan James has studied opera in Juilliard so she is definitely well trained! Such a great reaction, thank you! Also I've seen other people mentioning this in the comments of your videos but I am going to mention it again. I think you really should react to "Blackbird" live in Amsterdam by Alter Bridge! You are not going to regret it!!

@Miv51miv51 3 года назад

She was indeed classically trained at Juilliard. There are videos on RU-vid where she does some operatic things with a pianist, where she explains some of this.

@Chiungalla79 3 года назад

The Projekt is called Scott Bradleys Postmodern Jukebox. Scott Bradley is the musical mastermind behind the project. And the pianist in most their videos. And although it is probably a group efford, as far as I understand it, those arrangements are his doing. Which makes him a modern day Mozard level musical genius in my book. I would love to see you doing a reaction to "Careless Whisper" bei PMJ. It`s pretty old, but I think you would love it.
