Thank you for requesting this, more people outside of Australia should know who Vanessa is. I was lucky enough to be on her team on Rockwiz back in 2009, she is an amazing vocalist and a lovely person.
As a proud Aussie we may have a small population compared to most country's in the world but per capita we have some the most talented sports persons, singers, musicians and intellectuals in the world. Vanessa is just one example.
I watched this a year ago,.... But since the new year, I was scanning through stuff I enjoyed n in the previous year/s, n I observed this reactions from Nick, n thought I should give it another thumbs up. ... Really appreciate all the reactions and comments from y'all. ... Its a beautiful world out there, believe me..... .. 🌺
So glad you're delving into more Vanessa Amorosi🙌. Her range and control is insane. Some people have likened some of her high notes to a human electric guitar. Her covers of "Piece of my heart" are crazy too. And the song she did for the Olympic Games opening back in 2000. There's a note at the end she holds for ages. Really enjoyed this reaction! Love your genuine appreciation and enthusiasm for great vocalists!
Man. you've unleashed the beast now! 5-octave range on this tiny little person. Saw her live at Werribee mansion in Melbourne as a support for Jimmy Barnes years ago and she sang everything from pop, thru Led Zep, AC/DC and even Johnny Cash - and she smashed it - all of it. One of the best I've ever heard.
I saw her as a support singer to Kate Ceberano in Adelaide when she was just starting out. Vanessa was about 17 but she blew me away. I’ve just downloaded her new album City of Angels.
Her performance of Heroes Live Forever for the Sydney Olympics opening ceremony is actually otherworldly. Like, as a singer I don’t understand how she *physically* does it.
He has done a reaction to heroes live forever but UA-cam algorithms block any content owned by the IOC and so it could not be posted 😢 so he posted it on his patreon page instead
When you see the backup singers enjoying themselves so much, you KNOW how good the performance is, imo...every artist performer here is excellent and each uplifting each other...I would have loved to have been there in person...thank you for reacting to this one as well
I am pretty sure if you did come to Australia, there would be plenty of people who would love to hang out with you, and love to show you around:) Vanessa Amorosi is a very talented lady and singer. Her song Heroes at the 2000 olympics still gives me chills, it is that good!! Thank you for another fun video:)
how many women can say "imma just get up and sing Aretha" then EARN those words. Vanessa is my all-time favorite female singer, she's inhuman (in a good way).
I think Australia has such good performers because we had places for them to show off their talent, like Hey Hey It’s Saturday, Countdown, and numerous late night shows similar to Carson, Letterman, etc, where they’d perform live to tape - no lip sync here!
It's interesting how describe Australian singers you've heard sounding very blues. That sound is what I've always heard called Australian rock. It does explain how rock in Australia is different from what I've heard from other countries. Really enjoy listening to your reactions because it always gives an insight into singers or songs I've grown up listening to.
Being an Aussie , I have always said that Vanessa Amorosi is the best Aussie female vocalist I have ever heard she can sing anything ( that's my opinion ) .
I remember watching her do sound checks for our local events in our area ( I went to school with her) and mucking around because the band wasn’t playing and she felt awkward , such a talent. Amazing women and an incredible singer
Vanessa swoops her vocals around and about exploring. Dipping or diving into the shade and fluttering or soaring into the light on various levels before powering through the stratosphere, and even sometimes, sliding back toward the shade to finish. She works the dynamics of light and shade, she doesn't just head up, straight for a ceiling and circle there on the same level for the whole time giving a performance that is more about just sustaining a high technical level rather than feeling and conveying the powerful emotions of the lyrics. Vanessa has muscle AND spirit within her range of talent.
Sensational voice. Love watching all your 'reactions' Just love your honesty and analysis. I'll join others in asking you to 'react' to her 'live' performance at the Sydney Olympics of 'Hero's live Forever' I swear she doesn't breathe lol. Her last note will shatter glass.
She is amazing live, seen her twice many years ago. Apart from her own singles she had a selection of Janis Joplin and The Police in there and did an amazing job.
I always imagine the back up singers looking at her and thinking "Who is this white girl? What is she doing here", then after she starts they are like, "Oh....."
Just came across your channel and am loving it! I have a couple more Aussies to suggest for you, they were both in the final of Eurovision in their respective years. Dami lm singing "Sound of Silence" and Kate Miller-Heike singing "Zero Gravity".
Okayyyy I was wrong-- thought it was going take Several songs to get to realization Vanessa is Top Tier vocally; it took one Song 1st time 🎧 Her and about 10 seconds of THIS!! Impeccable singing ability, WOW 👏😱🤯 Perhaps a slightly less than accurate, understatement describing in adjective form The performance--Vocally Incendiary & Transformational!! I can hardly wait to hear MORE AustraliasGotTalent 🇦🇺
Agree, heard lots try to cover this song, some okay, some not so bad, but Vanessa friggin nailed it, definitely best cover version of this classic, delivered with the power Aretha intended👍😊✌🇦🇺
Yep, Vanessa Amorosi is one of Australia's GOATs, imo. She's got a vocal range up the wahzoo, that one! And I have to agree with you: this is the best cover of Natural Woman (what amazing backing vocalists!) I've heard too. And hey, if you ever do make your way Down Here, you're more than welcome to come stay with us. :-)
I had to come back to thank you for the heads up about Tiffany Mosley. Oh my goodnessgraciousME, that woman can SING! What a powerful gift she has - listening to her was truly a spiritual experience. Wow!
So exquisitely perfect! Oh! Baby what you done you done to me! Feeling about feeling good inside -- your reaction and her sanging! Sang it ghuuurrrll !
I have watched quite a few of your reaction to various Australian Icons and I love that you love them so much. Australia has some wonderful talent and Vanessa Amorosi is definitely up there. I have one more for you though, have you done a reaction to Wendy Mathews, The day you went away. I swear that song gets me everytime.
Looks like that's Dave Stewart out of the band that Annie Lennox was in , he also played a beautiful orchestral peace with the guitar call Lily, beautiful piece of music . I think he's standing right next to our Aussie, Vanessa Amorosi.
Vanessa’s come up in my Facebook lately, still posting incredible lives of her latest stuff. And it’s better than her old pop hits, we really don’t appreciate our artists in Australia
In Australia we have a relatively small population so singers have to be really good or they won't get their big break here (some really good singers still don't make it.) Plus we can spot the ones only out for fame and they don't last. Whereas in America you have a large population with a lot of different styles and tastes, plus America is a bit more of a 'fame hungry' culture so consumers play into it more than Australians do. Not saying America doesn't have great singers (they clearly do) but there are also way too many that have the star look but not the star quality. All imo anyway.
THANKYOU THANKYOU THANKYOU for doing my request, I'm so happy to hear this and luv your reaction too x

Awesome choice. Love Vanessa's voice. So incredibly talented.

Makes sense

That's Vanessa! Listen here. You'd better watch yourself. You're in serious danger of becoming as 'Honorary Aussie" at this rate! :)
She is the BEST Australian female vocalist, sublime in every way!
nah, sia way ahead and more successful
@@djizzah sia more successful yes. better? no.
Vanessis the BEST by a country mile.

It’s a shame that the commentators at the olympics were so busy drooling over Tina Arena, cause Vanessa blew her off the stage.
Man. you've unleashed the beast now! 5-octave range on this tiny little person. Saw her live at Werribee mansion in Melbourne as a support for Jimmy Barnes years ago and she sang everything from pop, thru Led Zep, AC/DC and even Johnny Cash - and she smashed it - all of it.

Mate the concerts they've had at Werribee Park over the yrs have been brilliant.👍Even the Country Music Festival back in the day was a bloody ripper.
@@oztiger5663 It's a great venue!
@@aussierhino471 too right cobber.
I saw her as a support singer to Kate Ceberano in Adelaide when she was just starting out. Vanessa was about 17 but she blew me away. I’ve just downloaded her new album City of Angels.
Two years ago I went to a show and saw Vanessa Amarosi and John Farnham on the same day. It was amazing.
Wow!! I’m an Aussie and I can say she is an underestimated talent here…that was mind blowing!
Her performance of Heroes Live Forever for the Sydney Olympics opening ceremony is actually otherworldly. Like, as a singer I don’t understand how she *physically* does it.
The best

Absolutely Everybody needs to hear Vanessa Amarosi at least once.
Absolutely Everybody is another great song of hers to react to!
I see what you did there!! 🤣🤣🤣
I am pretty sure if you did come to Australia, there would be plenty of people who would love to hang out with you, and love to show you around:) Vanessa Amorosi is a very talented lady and singer.

That would be dope
Yes , come visit Australia 🇦🇺.. we’re a friendly bunch
Absolutely! Come visit! We'll show you around the Tropics and put on an Aussie seafood feast for you.
Come visit!!!!!!
Please listen to Renee Geyer - Heading in the Right Direction, or Stares and Whispers! 💕
Please, please, please. 🙏🏻
how many women can say "imma just get up and sing Aretha" then EARN those words. Vanessa is my all-time favorite female singer, she's inhuman (in a good way).
Vanessa Amarosi doing Janis Joplins 'Piece of my heart' will send you into another stratosphere. Take 40 live Lounge version's the best i've heard.
Vanessa is another amazing Australian singer. Love Vanessa, such a powerful voice.
Thanks for your reaction. Vanessa Amorosi is super talented.

Being an Aussie , I have always said that Vanessa Amorosi is the best Aussie female vocalist I have ever heard she can sing anything ( that's my opinion ) .
I agree. Never understand the Kylie hype. I usually cannot stand vocal Olympics but when Amarosi does it, it’s phenomenal.
nothing better than listening to a great song sung by someone with a great voice
I’m soooo happy you watched this!!! I’ve been loving Venessa since the 2000’s!! She now is a gospel singer in the USA
I remember watching her do sound checks for our local events in our area ( I went to school with her) and mucking around because the band wasn’t playing and she felt awkward , such a talent. Amazing women and an incredible singer
So underrated. And so good live!
She is an amazing singer and songwriter.
Awesome reaction, Vanessa is electrifying live! And may I add what a lovely voice you have too! Keep on doing your thing 😁

Vanessa was singing in a Russian resturant in Australia when she was 16 years old i think she was discovered there, also rights a lot of songs.
Stunning talent! Beautiful!
Damn.... Vanessa.... so talented, so beautiful. Just mesmerizing.
Sensational voice. Love watching all your 'reactions' Just love your honesty and analysis. I'll join others in asking you to 'react' to her 'live' performance at the Sydney Olympics of 'Hero's live Forever' I swear she doesn't breathe lol. Her last note will shatter glass.
He’s already reacted to that. Visit his Patreon. He calls himself “Nick Wilson” there. Well, that’s obviously his real name, lol.
I heard her practicing the day before the opening ceremony (i worked in the main bar next to the stadium) and wow, it was impressive.
Yay! Vanessa's brilliant! Just love the way you appreciate singers from a professional perspective. Love your voice BTW!
Vanessa with the legendary Dave Stewart on guitar (Eurythmics). There is some great live work the 2 did together.

She is amazing live, seen her twice many years ago. Apart from her own singles she had a selection of Janis Joplin and The Police in there and did an amazing job.
It's like she's actually stronger in those high notes, insane!!! Great reaction
She is so underrated, I love her
I love how she has grown.
You really need to hear tina arena-chains. She australias best female vocalist by a mile.
Have you heard her new song "Church', l love it. I think it's the best song she's ever done!
Definitely Chains! 💕
Yup you do!
Yes Tina is a spectacular artist. Up there in the elite range.
And she sings in multiple languages.
Just a thought - have you listened to a Aussie singer by the name of Renee Geyer? Also another voice that is incredible!!
I’ve been lucky enough to see her live at an outdoor summer concert…..she’s as good live as you see here!! She’s the whole package man!
Wow. Thanks for this one. I hadn't heard this performance before. Love Vanessa.
Her live performance of hero’s last forever at the olympics is extraordinary.
woop Yay loving you finding and hearing all these Aussie singers we want the world to know them share share 🇦🇺 🥰
I always imagine the back up singers looking at her and thinking "Who is this white girl? What is she doing here", then after she starts they are like, "Oh....."
"I need to take a trip there". You come to Australia after what you have done and you will know more about Aus music than most of us.
I love watching your reactions. You get right in there and you can tell you are feeling these great artists. 😎 Love from downunder.
I am very much lol
What a singer she is!!!! I get goose bumps listening to her. Imagine her in a duo with Jimmy Barnes!! 💋
You're right - she's a vocal tornado! I wish she'd come home to Australia and share the stage with John Farnham. They'd blow everyone away 😁
Best female voice in the world.
Just came across your channel and am loving it! I have a couple more Aussies to suggest for you, they were both in the final of Eurovision in their respective years. Dami lm singing "Sound of Silence" and Kate Miller-Heike singing "Zero Gravity".
Thanks
She's insane. So flawless.
She's amazing and beautiful and i love your reaction to her.

She is just so so good and all Australian , lives in the USA now. Check out the last two albums she has done because they are good.
👍😎👍🇦🇺
The number of people who can sing Aretha Franklin and not murder it is literally impossible to find. Vanessa Amorosi is awesome.
Yep a vocal tornado. She is Great live And plays rock guitar like 👍
She is the best Aussie singer.🇦🇺🇦🇺
Australia just loves her she has the beautiful range high and low.
This woman had such a killer voice back in the day. 👍🤗 ...Love the chorus adding the Aretha touch. Wow.
She really shines very talented.
You should here her sing the song she sang at the Sydney Olympics. I think it was called Heroes Live Forever. Amaaaaaaaaazing!!!
Amazing! 👌 Love Vanessa, such an amazing voice!
Your voice is something else too ❤ 💕, but yes, Vanessa is one out of the box for sure👏👏👏
Gave me goose bumps listening to this
Vanessa is AMAZING

Great choice thank you Nicco
Her song This Is Who I Am totally shows off her full range. You should check it out
Can you look at The Voice Australia blind auditions? The visiting coaches are usually pleasantly surprised at the quality of the hopefuls.
Vanessa!
If you ever get the chance, see her live.
Flying the flag again👌🇦🇺❤️
I love her voice. Listen to her song higher ground
Mate, you will be very welcome, you are such a nice and respectful person. You'll need a hell of a lot of time to see it all.
Great cover
