Here’s the link to the brand new baby UA-cam channel I just launched under my “real” name, Elle Cordova: www.youtube.com/@ElleCordova (more videos unspooling over there this week) This is the beginning of an exciting new era, and I’m so glad to have you along for the ride! As I said in my Instagram post about this name change, I’m still the same person I have always been, just with more of me in the frame. Cheers to new beginnings and continuations of the things we have already built together!
True story: learned about your work under your new name, saw this video, and ended up spending 2 weeks getting into Lana del Ray because I have poor attention to detail.
Elle, happy to know you in this configuration. On my 21st birthday, I got a 3 x 5 file card from my grandfather. He was a truly unique character and played a major role in how I choose to leive may life. Her is what the card said. ""Jeff: Wanted to send you a birthday card but forgot to pick one up so this will have. to do. On your 21st birthday, my advice to you is never be afraid to look another man in the eye and tell him the truth." That line of advice has proved its value over the years. Good luck Elle, and just keep telling us the truth.
These comments are amazing. They reflect a powerful sense of love, warmth and appreciation. What drives this is not just outstanding musical and word talent but that you are a rock-solid source of good, smart, funny and consistently positive vibes. I can’t thank you and your fellow musicians enough for this.
Our old pal Shakespeare told us that a rose by any other name would smell as sweet. He's right. Your music has been an absolute delight for me during the many years I've listened. I respect the fortitude it took to make this announcement and I'm impressed but not at all surprised at the grace and honesty with which you made your case. Thank you for the way that you have changed our world for the better with your music, your kindness, and your soul. Hope you embrace the next chapter, and continue to give us more of your beautiful, absolutely beautiful music. Thank you, Elle. It's a pleasure meeting you.
This is the exact opposite of what normally is shown on UA-cam and it makes me so serenely happy. The fact that she said that she felt with her more intimate work that it drew her to her real name, and that it lead to her eventually embracing that side of her in her creative endeavors as a whole really struck a chord with me. I’m sure if her parents knew that embracing the name they gave her, out of the love they had for her since her birth, became a source of deepening her artistry in all her creative endeavors, it would especially moving to them. They’d be smiling the warmest smile, and would feel an interior affirmation that the life they gave their daughter is inseparable from the meaning they find in life in general.
“A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.” Congrats on the start of this new chapter! It’s great to (re)meet you 😊 Coffee cheers! Beer cheers! Just cheers! 🎉
@@maovslandlords9244 Explain to me how it’s courageous. Simply put, you can’t. Because it isn’t courageous. It’s a business decision. She wants her own name to be recognized for the work she’s put in. That has nothing to do with courage. Taking a bullet for someone is courageous. Changing a name isn’t.
@@BrandonWestfall- I know what you’re saying, and I can’t really judge whether it took courage or not, because I don’t know her - but courage comes in many forms. If there’s something you find a bit scary, but you do it anyway because you feel you have to - that to me is courage, whether it’s a business decision or a child taking their first steps.
Your screen name was cool. I understand needing anonymity to feel safer on the internet. But Rochelle is one of the prettiest names and I think it fits you perfectly. Enjoying the intellectual innuendos of all your new poetry
So happy to see you be who you want to be and to create and share your incredible art on your terms in your way. Glad to celebrate you as Elle! Thank you for all you do.❤
Chère Elle, nous soutenons tout à fait ta décision et te félicitons pour cette honnêteté ! Quel que soit ton nom, tu restes la même personne et nous t'apprécions pour l'artiste que tu es depuis toutes ces années. Nous continuons à te suivre, ensemble avec Toni. Vous êtes une formidable équipe et vous nous apportez beaucoup de plaisir avec votre musique! Que Dieu vous bénisse richement!
This is such a gentle and considerate video, so as to let people know and ease into it, in a tone that is spot on for Aspergers people like me. Keep doing great poetry and funny observations of the world around us!
You and your music inspire all of us to be authentic. We love your honesty. Music is such a powerful force and you use it so well. I would say "Be true to yourself" but you already are. I've followed you for years and never commented, but I just have to say: Thank you for being you. Best wishes in all you do.
Both are beautiful names, and the fact that you're courageous enough to tell us your true name that fits you means a lot, Elle! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Looking forward to the same great music!
Lovely to meet you Elle. 😊 My name is Darryl. Love the Sunday Mornings HQ material. You are all incredibly talented, and your collective work always makes me smile. The world needs more of what you do. 🙂
Names are important and a lot of people don't realize how much of our identity we carry with it until people don't call us by it. Its really awesome that you are introducing us to you El and look forward to the new songs
You are who you are. I call this honest and authentic. Thanks for the kind consideration for your fans that might not understand this transition. Wishing YOU a continued, inspired, healthy, happy, and wondrous journey.
This young lady is a great musician and entertainer no matter what name she chooses to call herself!!! I am looking forward to her new music and album. Much love for Tony too!!!
@@tryste_mx Ah you see, it's all in the eye of the beholder. If you are twenty or below (age) then she is getting-on a bit but to someone of my age, she is young. Young / old; tall / short are really relative terms depending on our own position in the scale. So he's right - and so are you. For the record, she is aged about 35 (2003) I believe, so if there is an absolute scale in human longevity, I suppose she is early middle-age but she's young to me and old to you and always will be. All the best.
As a Boomer I’ve been so impressed by your work, as well as the others, and have enjoyed listening to you immensely. I’ve followed you for a while and knew somehow Rena Del Cid wasn’t your real name. It goes without saying I will continue to follow you by whatever name you go by. Thanks for all you do and best of luck with your future endeavors ❤
You introduced yourself to me 5 yrs ago when you sang “I never drank whiskey till I met you.” It was affirmed when I saw you & Toni sitting on the railroad tracks singing Jambalaya when something happened that couldn’t be took back. Your poetry is sweet and your love is deep. All the best in life to you both. God bless you!
I've enjoyed your content for a long time. You and Toni are very talented, and you share a lot of happiness that our society badly needs. Thanks for all the great music!
Happy to support you Elle! You are a talented musician, songwriter, poet and all-around great person. Thanks for letting us know more about you and your future plans. I wish you well. Nothing but respect for you, Toni and the gang!
Sunday mornings are my favorite part of the week. Seems like a good time to sub to the channels as they always seem to be in my suggested list. Thanks to Elle and Toni for all the great work. 👍
Whatever name you use, you will always be one of the cleverest lyricists I've come across. So pleased to hear you say that you're still writing with Toni - one of the most talented musicians I've come across. 🤓
I always thought it was your title. You'll always be a queen to me. You have given us so much wonder over the years and you and Toni will always be loved.
77 year old guy here and I just want to say how much I enjoy your material. Keep up the great work and keep those creative juices flowing!!! Happy October 2024!!!
I’m glad you’re getting more comfortable. I know when I have left you a message it felt odd calling you Reina as I knew that wasn’t your actual name, but I was afraid of being too bold by calling you by your real name. This solves that dilemma:) looking forward to everything you do Elle ❤
Congratulations Elle! Your work is fantastic & you are free to call yourself any name you wish with no explanation needed. Your music and authentic personality (Toni too) is why we are all here! ❤ 🎼 🎵 🎶
Elle, I discovered you three months ago and thus far I have posted at least that many of your videos and follow all of your various pages. I really truly adore you. Not from a pervy standpoint, bear in mind, just as a fellow nerdy wordsmith musician who appreciates outstanding and entertaining content. I love humans with those qualities. Keep doing what you do I absolutely love it!
I am glad you have grown so much. You should be your own person. I wish you much success with your new name, ElleCordove. Please keep the new songs, poetry, and your joy of music coming.
Just be you. I love your talent and authenticity. You and the excellent people you collaborate with seem like completely genuine folks and it shows in your music.
Thankyou for the update Elle. I would have been unhappy losing track of your various postings, individual and collaborative, which always bring a smile to my day. Cheers, John!
I was completely comfortable with the reasons for Reina. It was a smart idea. You and Toni have been the coolest and least demanding friends. I will always enjoy 'hanging out' with you. Hopefully the copy of Kipling I gave you for your birthday a fair few years ago (whilst on tour with Josh in London) made it to your bookshelf.
Hello from Cordoba in the great state of Veracruz, Mexico. I've been in love with you and your music and poetry since Library Girl. The recent space and Star Trek rap is great. I still have trouble envisioning you in LA. I grew up in Southern California listening to Merle Travis, Joe Maphis and the Collins Kids, but the environmental deterioration was so severe by 1964 that I left and never returned. You're a wonderful and very creative artist and I am very happy to have you in our lives. Reina, Rochelle or Elle, you are a blessing for us❤.
I was under the impression her real name was Rachel, so when she first announced her new name, I thought she was adopting another Spanish moniker - El Cordova. Sounds dashing and swashbuckling. Apparently it's a hotel in San Diego. ;)
@@MathsYknow I think the hotel you're thinking of is the El Coronado, but I can see how those names could be confused. Also I could be wrong and there might also be a El Cordova Hotel.
Elle, found you as Elle via your comedy. Can't express how much I appreciate your and Toni and friends authenticity, musicality, and humanity. I consider myself lucky to have found this. Look forward to listening to your journey. Thank you.
Been listening for quite a while. I knew it was a 'stage name' but heck you just do you and I'll keep listening/watching. You Toni and the other favorites make up a HUGE part of my playlist. Nice to meet you Elle! (Hope I spelled that right)
All the best, dear Elle. Respect and appreciation for changing your name! I love and enjoy your music videos and your work with Toni and your other friends!
I have enjoyed this channel for several years and watched you and Toni grow. You are both so talented and have touched the hearts of many. It makes sense that you wanted to start using your original name. I also think it is wonderful that you have changed the name of the channel to Sunday Mornings HQ.
I recently found your shorts on FB . I instantly fell in love with your clever nerdy raps. I added Candy Apple Red on the evil Spotify. Whatever name a rose goes by ,it smell is always sweet.
In these days when so many people on social media use pseudonyms it’s good to see someone going the other way. Well done Elle, and best wishes from Cornwall, England for this next chapter in your musical career!
Hello I hope you're safe over there? I hope this year brings happiness, prosperity, love ❤and peace all over the world🌏. I would love us to be good friends in honesty and in trust so as time goes on it will bring something great for us in the future, hope you don't mind? I'm Engineer Graham Bolt from Nashville Tennessee, where are you from?💙
Never let anyone make you feel ashamed of yourself. You are who you are. And, in this case.....a talented, beautiful young woman who makes people happy and proud.
You will always have a special place in my heart . I just love all your originals and covers and i have really enjoyed all the space poetry and nerdy raps. Siri and alexa is my top favourite. Looking forward the video tomorrow.
I am so happy for you to be you and I will continue to follow you because of who you are personally. I honestly thought that Reina was the band name. BTW, my mother’s maiden name is Cordova. Congratulations on feeling comfortable with being authentically you. We celebrate YOU.
Elle, I discovered you as Elle and love your creative talent as a poet and I’m further enriched by your singing past and present. Thanks for all you do. You are a true creative genius! 😍😍❤️❤️😀😀
Well...hello Elle. Very nice to meet you. I've always loved your music and creativity. Personally...I'm glad to finally truely meet you. Looking forward hearing more of you.
Hello Elle. I'm Fred. It's nice to meet you through the magic of UA-cam. Transparency can be liberating. I look forward to hearing more of what you have to say on this and your other channel. Cheers!
Nicely done!! And what a beatiful name it is as well. This is a big change and you've shown a tremendous amount of courage and forsite. I think your timing is great, the longer you do the beautiful things you do, the harder it would be to make such a huge change. And also good for you for both keeping your personal life out of the spotlight and deciding on your own terms when to make the change! Bravo Zulu
Very nice to meet you ( again but for the first time) Elle I really enjoy your music and videos congratulations on your new level of growth and being comfortable with sharing more of you looking forward to more of your creations! 🎸🎼🎤
I'm sure I'll have commented already, but the Malbec is flowing tonight. I've watched you for years, enjoyed you for years. Elle, keep on doing what you're doing, thank you.

@@ElleCordova my, my! you sure do get around!
Awesome! I love all your work and frequently share your Trek & science fiction themed raps with my Star Trek club.
twitter handle needs to be updated.
Best wishes on you and your career without a stage name! Cheers and aloha from Hawaii.
"Elle Cordova" is such a beautiful name. I am glad you are finally comfortable using it.
True story: learned about your work under your new name, saw this video, and ended up spending 2 weeks getting into Lana del Ray because I have poor attention to detail.
Very funny
This made me literally laugh out loud. A+
Didn’t you notice the drop in quality from Elle’s work to the overproduced work of Lana ?
@@e32b61 He obviously didn't, which is what in part makes this so funny.
Me rn. Your comment made me realise this video is from a year ago. I was very confused when she mentioned the old one.

Actually he said “that which we call a rose by any other WORD would smell as sweet”
Beautifully said 😊😊😊

Unless you call them stench blossoms. Or crapweeds.

I don't follow names, I follow exceptional talent which is why I'm here.
Well said
True dat.
In Germany there is this saying: Namen sind Schall und Rauch (names are sound and smoke). It means that it doesn't matter at all.
She doesn't want to control how you behave with her
A Rose by any other name...
No more Cid-izens? What the Elle!?
lol!
👏🏻😂🤣
Peop-Elle?
It's great this channel will remain. So many of us attached to it, you, and Toni. Can't wait to see all the new stuff you've got coming, Elle!
“A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”
Congrats on the start of this new chapter! It’s great to (re)meet you 😊
Coffee cheers! Beer cheers! Just cheers! 🎉
i prefer ; i fell into an out house and came out smelling like Rose....
What if she was called “🤖MURDERTRON 3000🤖”?
"not if it was stink blossom"
I hope people realize that took a lot of courage! You rock and are the most honest, true to yourself person on YT, Elle 💛
Courage? It's a name. Nothing more.
@@BrandonWestfall It's also her entire brand and has been for the last 16 years. It's MUCH more than just a name.

This is awesome, I admire the courage thus took. I've been with this channel for about 10 years. I think my favorite original is Pretty Lie.
One of my favorites too. Love the beat on that one.
You know, seeing that Star Trek book just hanging out in the background in a lot of your videos just warms the heart lol

Very exciting, and this short felt personal and genuine. Looking forward to what’s to come.
It's great to hear your excitement about this new chapter. I'm excited to follow along and glad to meet your true name, Elle!
Pleased to make your acquaintance Elle. Nerdy raps and science is why I was pulled into your orbit. Glad to be aboard. You are insanely fun.❤
I knew it was a stage name, and it didn't matter, I still love your art and what you do. Keep doing what you do best, your so talented!
Nice to meet you Elle. Have always loved your work and collaborations. Keep on rocking please!!!
You will always have a special place in my heart . I just love all your originals and covers and i have really enjoyed all the space poetry and nerdy raps. Siri and alexa is my top favourite. Looking forward the video tomorrow.
Elle Cordova is such a beautiful and great sounding name, and finally using seems like the right timing.
I am so happy for you to be you and I will continue to follow you because of who you are personally. I honestly thought that Reina was the band name. BTW, my mother’s maiden name is Cordova. Congratulations on feeling comfortable with being authentically you. We celebrate YOU.
Elle, I discovered you as Elle and love your creative talent as a poet and I’m further enriched by your singing past and present. Thanks for all you do. You are a true creative genius! 😍😍❤️❤️😀😀
Elle, Rachelle, Reina, whatever. We love the music that you and Toni (and others) post. So thanks and all the best for the future.
Toni and all your guests are truly talented.

Hello Elle. I'm Fred. It's nice to meet you through the magic of UA-cam. Transparency can be liberating. I look forward to hearing more of what you have to say on this and your other channel.
Cheers!
Nicely done!! And what a beatiful name it is as well. This is a big change and you've shown a tremendous amount of courage and forsite. I think your timing is great, the longer you do the beautiful things you do, the harder it would be to make such a huge change. And also good for you for both keeping your personal life out of the spotlight and deciding on your own terms when to make the change! Bravo Zulu
Very nice to meet you ( again but for the first time) Elle I really enjoy your music and videos congratulations on your new level of growth and being comfortable with sharing more of you looking forward to more of your creations! 🎸🎼🎤
I'm sure I'll have commented already, but the Malbec is flowing tonight. I've watched you for years, enjoyed you for years. Elle, keep on doing what you're doing, thank you.
Have been loving seeing geeky friends sharing the space poetry. Very best wishes Elle.
