Hi Momma! Beautiful reaction!❤ What you are going to hear on originals is Tori not adding Karen inflections. The comments always say they hear Karen. Well, in Suddenly she used her higher register so that was more mitigated. Her tone is very close. I don’t think it’s a bad thing. She can sing THOSE classic songs and do them justice. I held back a spoiler. If you click through my ID here, you can see the video I recorded at the church (where Karen had her final service) with all the boominess and things falling and coughing. This is why she needed to fix it. She finally gave herself Producer credit for this one. Richly deserved. She did all the backing vocals and arranging modifications. She tried to sync some of the video but that wasn’t the purpose. She also changed the ending and to me, improved it. She sang the OG version in the church. This song still gives me goosebumps as I know the history for so long. This is as close as we get. Another singer, older than Tori and from the UK has a deep voice and can sing Carpenters songs is Harriet. I’ll let Perfect Blend introduce you to her is she’d like to? PB!? 😊 In the next batch we have two more Carpenters songs and her first original from last year Christmas time. I haven’t queued Georgia On My Mind as she sounds NOTHING like Ray but guess who the comments say she sounds like 🤷🏻♂️. Maybe another of Tori’s Troops will offer that up? 😃 My mom went through a spinal fusion, before me. She told me stories of being in a body cast for a long time, immobile. I’m so happy to see you up and music-ing. ❤ Heal quickly!🙏 Thanks again and I’m chillin’ until the next one. Joe
Thank you for your wonderful comments and insight into this performance and to Tori. I'm kind of at a loss for words because you said everything that I intended to! Tori does have a few original songs and I'm sure Joe will get them to you. Thanks for all.
What a wonderful, thoughtful reaction. A few Tori songs she did not cover for the Carpenter's are "Georgia On My Mind:" a cover to commemorate Ray Charles and "It's Impossible" cover sung originally by Perry Como -- in which Tori sings along with Dan Westley toward the ending of the cover -- who is a gifted musician/artist in his own right. Otherwise, Joe hit the nail on the head 🙂 May you recover fully and quickly !!! Take good care, M. PS - She also does a great Olivia Newton-John short cover of "Sam" along with another collaboration with Dan Westley "Suddenly" again with Olivia's higher wispy register - showing that Tori can really hit those low tones as well as high. Ann everything in between with her beautiful vibrato.
@@TheRealMommaOG Gotcha and watched just now - another great reaction. Check out those Olvia Newton John ones - Tori has such versatility and pa-zass ;-) Stay well dear one !
@@marciasanguinetti3900 and thank you Marcia, for the kind words. The next set has CTY and two Christmas songs including her original and MC,D of course. 😊 Joe
Momma, you're putting way too much emphasis on your boo-boo. Believe me, you offer plenty of distraction. I think it looks worse to you than it does to us. From here, it doesn't even look like a band-aid. This lady did a fine job on the song. She really sounds like KC. You can really hear her singing it. My fellows clown me, but I dig a good Carpenters tune, and weren't they all good? Especially at holiday time. Good stuff!
lol Thanks... but I keep repeating it a bit in multiple videos just to make sure everyone hears that I don't have a disease or something. lol Just a strategy. Wait til you see the ones with the bandage off. 😅🔪
