So, I'm Filipino. And when you live in the Philippines, sometimes you hear I Have Nothing more often than you hear the national anthem. It can get old. I fucking wept, same as you, first time I heard Wendy sing it. Do you know how good you have to be to make a Filipino hear a Whitney Houston song in a brand new light? Unbelievable.
She's my bias, i'm so proud of her. Please react to Wendy's other live performances, such as the live band version of the Wish You Hell album, Wendy Begin Again, etc. hehe thanks
Lots of idol vocalists have amazing voices and range, some can or can’t convey and evoke emotion with it. And some have amazing technique, some are lacking. Wendy mastered it all though like no one else in the industry. I recommend watching her “Fine” cover on song stealer and more recently “everybody hurts sometimes”, i thought I heard it all until I saw those performances
Thanks for your reaction, i got teary watching you 😅. Wendy is really something, like she’s really at the top. And yes you got to watch her duet with John Legend and with Ricky Martin as well. Another vocal showcase by Wendy is when she sang “Fine” in song stealer.. her range there is insane 🔥. She also recently performed ALL tracks in Wish You Hell album with a band if you want to see it as well.. it’s so good.
The mic she was using was a gift from fans. She also sang a song with Ricky Martin … oh can I suggest watching Katrinka’s reaction to it? You’ll love it. Red Velvet Killing Voice soon!
The mic was? That’s so sweet! 🥹 and yes we will be checking out her collabs! I love Katrinka’s channel and ran right to it after editing this last night lol 😂
I can not tell u the amount of times a s reveluv I would hear a ost and be like who's this and it would end up being wendy the way she emotes is insane she's such a stand out vocalist
Wendy was born to sing...💙 thank you for reacting to this vid and the rest of RV vids, you're one of my favorite reactor. I'm always waiting for your videos every day
There are some good vocalists out there, but honestly, there isn't another girl out of the entire 3rd and 4th gen of Kpop that's in Wendy's league. She was genuinely born to sing.
I teared up too during I Have Nothing, when I watched it last year... Tears for the voice that was taken away from us so many years ago.. Tears for the new voice found... Thanks for the reaction
What she did is incredible risky. Singing I have nothing with just a piano in the background and sitting down? That's the worst possible setting for that difficulty, and she killed it. She's the bar to measure other kpop singers.
Yeah Wendy’s just built different, there are maybe two or three other singers I can think of that can attempt something like that, but I’m not sure any of them can make it look that easy
Thank you so much for loving and appreciating Red Velvet. They are my role models, every single one of them for different reasons. If you're moved by Wendy's rendition of I have Nothing, then i recommend you to watch her on song stealer, singing the song "Fine", and the song "Close to you" on Begin Again. I will be following your videos on them from now on. Thanks for choosing to react to Red Velvet, they really deserve a lot more love and support.
23:52 it could be a cool idea to do a singles video like how you do ost videos because they have alot of solo songs/collabs/features that arent ost’s :)
I would really like to see you react to Belle's episode on Lee Mujin Service, she is a member of the group Kiss of Life, and despite her short debut, she is already one of the greatest voices to ever come through Kpop, it would be cool to see you react her and the group too.
Imo I dont think theres a better kpop vocalist, past or present than Wendy. Its been a while since she catched up to and surpassed Taeyeon, and shes still improving everyday and making it hard even for phenomonally talented young singers like Lily to catch up to. Shes technically proficient in almost all fronts, has superior range (both low and higher registers) and control, and is also a power belter similar to the likes of Ailee, Hyolyn, Solar and Wheein. There may be singers better than her in specific areas,, but none come close to the absolute complete package she is
I don't like to compare artists because it's all so subjective, but I could totally understand someone making the argument. She's certainly a talent that only really comes around very rarely!
