      Hello! I stumbled upon a rather exciting development regarding Faouzia and am spreading the news to Faouzia fans that I have come to recognize in the comments of Faouzia reactions.
      Faouzia is competing in the Chinese Singer 2024 competition and you can already watch her episode 1 performance of "Crazy" (by Gnarls Barkley) if you search 'Faouzia Crazy Onetake' -- it's on the MangoTV UA-cam channel.

    She is a beautiful singer and, as usual, you did a masterful job of breaking it down and explaining it to us. However, I had a hard time with the lyrics. “I would give my life for you” 😢 The older I get the more I want to hold the singer and tell them to kick the person who is hurting them like this to the curb. She deserves so so much better. I know this probably sounds crazy but songs like this make me so sad.

I unfortunately practised no music for the past 6 years at all, and I feel my abilities now are worse than they were when I was, say, 17-21 years of age However, some things never really leave you and just require a bit of an extra 'push' to come back to you, and I feel a lot of musical ability is just like that 🎶

    I think the better word for interesting for this song would be creative / artistic as she uses in the lyrics herself (and maybe wants to reflect in the song). This song is a quite creative variation of Beethovens original, quite cool.
    As Faouzia has some classical piano training she likely deliberately misspelled (and also mispronounced) "Für Elise". I wonder as well what was behind that idea. It seems very deliberate to me.
    You say it almost sounds a bit unnatural / autotuned at some places. I would strongly assume that is the post production. The producers manually pitch correct nearly all pop music nowadays and it makes long held out notes sometimes sound a bit metallic / unnatural - and she uses them a lot and would not need that correction, so sad.

    Fun Fact: In German Elise is pronounced WITH the e at the end - it makes the schwa sound 😊
    I bet Beethoven would have liked this version of his song, since he didn’t really like Für Elise. He thought it was too simple, too boring. (Unlike this one - even though I love the original composition as well ❤)
    Beethoven even tried to improve it with a second version. And that one is a little different. But I think that wasn’t to his liking either. 😅
    Do you know Beethoven‘s second version? I don’t think it’s more similar to this song by Faouzia. But on the other hand - it might be. 😅

    Your analysis was very interesting :) What about So Hyang's cover of Bridge over troubled water (ua-cam.com/video/C6iHh4yBxCo/v-deo.html). Cheers

    Another fun song is U.S. Girls x Glenn Gould - Good Kinda High. It is very catchy but please check with Glenn Gould foundation before reacting to this video.

    I'm guessing that there is not a lot of point in requesting Aurora's Murder Song from the Nobel Peace Prize Concert ;-(

      There's always a point! But you may be interested in my latest video from the same concert 👀
