  • I was asking people to sing in NYC, and then I met Katie Smith. She is walking home from her job and she notices people singing with me. She stops by to say "I like what you are doing. It's really cool." But then I asked her, "Would you like to be next?" She takes a moment to think about it. But then she says SURE!

      They just think because she us white that she cannot sing black music. But it works both ways. We blacks can sing their music too sometimes better than them. Check out the voice Kirk Jay who sung Rascal Flatts songs better than them that is why he did not win because white folks did not liked the fact so they did not vote for him and especially he was on Blake Shelton team. Hello!!! As long as they keep putting white singers over black singers on the voice, they are not ever gonna have someone as successful as Carrie underwood,Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia and Jennifer Hudson just to name a few

I feel like I'm cheating in life getting to see how talented you are before getting to know you as a person, but from the comments it seems all the other people in your life see in you what I do, and I can trust you won't hold it against me. Even the strangers here notice how down to earth and genuine you are as much as your ability to sing. I only hope our kids have your talent and sweet personality one day... 💕

      I think she could do much more if she pulled back a bit. She’s pushing so much that she starts to sounds tired as the song goes on. I’d hate for her to damage that beautiful voice with her current technique. She’s a natural talent and I hope she never stops singing. 😌

      ​@yunki_ I think she's not formally trained and sings, but not regularly. I bet if she had a voice coach and practiced regularly, she would strengthen her lungs and help her not strain her vocal cords. She is a natural talent and people like her are rare. I'd like to see her pursue a career in music. She's got the chops!

    Katie's optometrist here. 😀 I had no idea Katie is such a talent. I am more than relieved she was able to read the lyrics. Can you imagine how awful I'd feel if she had the wrong spectacle prescription, and couldn't read the lyrics? 🤔
    I'm British. Katie has a British 'vibe', eg. pointlessly humble, apologises unnecessarily. feels she's in the way .,,. Katie would fit right in, though maybe she's a bit too good for us, and our weather isn't as good as CA, ....

      @@JavierBonillaC Thank you very much. I am actually doing very well. Cancer treatment has come a long way. I like to share my experience so that I can share the context under which I’m expressing something, but I feel bad that people feel bad for me, because even though I’m very sick, I’m in this state where everything that’s beautiful is just so much more beautiful and through the process of the hard work over recovery, what has happened is that as each little strange thing in me heals differently, it’s very clear how much work we really are to take care of if we were taking care of ourselves the right way and everything slows down and I can see how much energy and effort and miracles go into so many things. When I was young and healthy and active and very strong physically, I didn’t stop to see everything around me. I’m very lucky that I can see the love in everything around me and really hope to impart this state to other humans.

      @@jasonhabedank7122 If you don't practice a song a lot, you aren't used to Reggie's arrangement or playing style, and you just came from your office, most people are going to have a difficult time with pitch, especially in the wind, under pressure, no warm up, and monitors on the street. She hit all the emotional notes, so you're right at a factual level about pitch in some tiny spots, but she was exceedingly good in this circumstance and I doubt even some professional singers could do better in this circumstance. Unless they are a Kelly Clarkson level talent or similar who can literally sing anywhere anytime.
