She's like a race-tuned F-1 machine. After one warm-up lap, she floors the pedal and WHAM~ she flys off. When she said 'Fall on your knees'... I almost did. Truly divine lady.
If I’m not mistaken, SO HYANG was diagnosed with cancer…after surviving the ordeal she saw her second chance at life as a gift from God and dedicated her voice/life to brining joy to others…she is a gospel singer who grew up singing in church and she rejected international fame choosing instead to sing only for Jesus and to raise money for charity. This is why I believe we feel so much from her singing...its from above and real.
Thanks man, I am from Sweden and I want to thank you for your reactions, been watching all of your reactions to her a couple of times, many of the songs for the first time with you, and because you are going back to the good parts i learning the songs with you. Love it and miss your reactions. Where are u if I may ask?
저도 공감합니다 오거룩한밤은 지구상에서 소향님 버젼이 최고로 듣기 좋습니다. 진짜 최고 클라이막스 (디바~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~)하고 부르는 부분에서는 정말 하늘 열리는줄 알았어요 ㅜㅜ 나도 모르게 어느새 눈물이 주륵주륵 소향님의 오거룩한밤 이 크리마스송 듣고 내가 눈물흘린건 처음이였어요
참고로 저는 여름에 유튜브로 이노래 처음 들었음 ㅜㅜ 충격과 전율과 감동 ㅜㅜ 소향님 노래를 처음 듣고 멘붕 온 나ㅜㅜ 세계적인 디바들보다 더 크리스마스송을 잘 부르는 분이 계시다는것에 대한 충격 ㅜㅜ 제 개인적으로는 머라이어캐리님 크리마스송을 제일 좋아했는데, 지금은 소향님의 오거룩한밤이 최고고 그다음이 머라이어캐리님 크리스마스송이 되었네요
유투브나 인터넷이 없었다면 소향이라는 가수도 모르고 살았을텐데.. Without RU-vid or the Internet, I wouldn't have known Sohyang. 크리스티나아길레나,, 셀린디옹거도 좋지만,, 소향게 최고라고 얘기하네요.. Christina Aguilena, Celine Dionger is good, but he says Kim So-hyang is the best.
Since I found this video, I've watched all the Sohyang's video you uploaded on your channel. I really thank you for sharing this video that not only says technical side but show the emotion you have. It's already almost over two years later since u uploaded this one, but I sometimes come and watch this again. Thank you :)
애시당초 소향님 성격은 유명세를 타려고 하는것이 아니어서.. 한국인이라서도 충분히 메이저한 곳에서 제안 많이 왔는데 다 거절하셨어요. 소향님 중심은 그런곳에 있지 않으시니 ㅎㅎ 지금도 충분히 디바이시고, 적당한 선에서 많은 사람들이 소향님을 아시고 인정한다고 생각합니다.
So Hyang has such incredible vocal skills in the higher registers that most miss that her most masterful skills are in the soft lower registers, and singing softly. The beginning of a lot of her songs use this, often a head voice to go with it. Look at arirang alone, or bridge over troubled waters etc....how she begins those songs. It takes a lot more vocal control to sing long phrases softly, and she is the master of it.
Akane Cortich I'm with you. I do pick up on techniques that alot of reactors miss. I'm always shocked they miss it. So Hyang always throws several in her performances. Its usually in lower volume and between lines but so many people never comment on it.
She sounds like that she can decorate any songs her way and it's beautiful, sounds more like she's sing from her heart and her stomach I think, beautiful and well sang 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️💥
No one but So Hyang! And your reaction is absolutely amazing. I also have tears every time I listen to this song. It's my favorite version of Oh Holy Night.
Listened to all Sohyang performances 100+ times by now but this one probably listened to 300+ times :) Blessed and amazed everytime for the past 6+years
Love the way you reacted and appreciated this Sohyang's "Oh Holy Night" here. I absolutely love it. This performance has not been viewed as much, and I believe, because it's so well known and doesn't provoke curiosity, but Sohyang transformed my feeling for this song completely. Forget about her vocal skills for a moment, the delivery of this song is so cinematic to me. When she started the first verse, I almost could see a camera pan to a cabin house next to a snow covered woods with the backdrop of an open sprawling field with the bright moon casting light on the scene. And you can hear the sound of a new born baby coming from the house. It's filled with peace and joy. After the first chorus , Sohyang switched to her powerful chest-mixed voice, the song takes on the task of admiring the miracle and singing the praise to the Heavenly Father. When hitting the second chorus, Sohyang's voice simply soared. It's downright majestic. I would also comment that Sohyang closed out this song so beautifully with her mesmerizing vibrato. There is no better messenger for this song than Sohyang in the delivery of its intended meaning. I join you with my own tears. Great reaction!
I love when the band is on point. In the intro before the performance, it showed her instructing the backing vocalists to do that heavy gospel vibrato, and it sounds so good while she sustains that "deviiii~ine" @ 8:38.
....no matter what she sings...her talent speaks so loudly for her and her personality too as far as you can sense that from online sources! Love so much listening to anything from her ! Looking forward to your next reaction :)
It's hot here; the temperature is almost 40 degrees Celcious every day but, thanks to her, I enjoyed pleasant Christmas even though it was just for a moment. :) Sincere reaction, as always.
Another great reaction!! Btw she sang this song many times during last Christmas season with kneeling in the middle of the performance following a part of the lyric.
You can also check on TNT Boys from the Philippines, they sung this same song with awesome voices. They were envited by Steve Harvey twice to sing in his show.
Glad you liked Sohyangs version of this song. Here's a 1 minutes clip of sohyang singing the climax of this song live this year. Hope you enjoy it :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-8yEvSSfUwNw.html
I had to come to see your reaction to this song because I just watched another reactor do it today and among the things she said was, the song is too boring to listen to it and she made it not so godly, so she made it better, which made me sad, I remember your reaction and I had to watch it again, I think she is mistaken, So Hyang is a gospel singer, and second the song is about the birth of Jesus there is only one way to do it, this was so close to Christmas and So Hyang sings this songs with her soul and spirit and you feel it... Great reaction, thanks for having it here.
I love her singing Christian songs and so beautifully and I truly believe if I ever was close enough to hear her fart it would sound like an angelic choir singing on heaven's high
I also love Oh Holy Night. I love it song by females My top 5, well Sohyang sang it at least 43 times, I'll only use her once. 1. Sohyang 2. Jewel 3. Ceine Dion 4. Martina McBride (Acapella) 5. Mariah Carey. I love Christina Aguilera voice, I just don't like the way she sang Oh Holy Night.
