"There could be 100 people in one room and 99 don’t believe in you and all it takes is one person to believe in you and that could change everything."
-Lady Gaga 2018
Harem Pena Exactly!!!!
Harem Pena So true, only takes one...
This is the human version of the quote :)
Made me cry, it's so true. And you have to believe in yourself more than anyone else.
Harem Pena ...she’s just magical!!
He picked all the perfect songs for her to sing
gitimgirl YES!!
especially what a wonderful world :)
@@nickvanderlaan4135 paraplejia a lomos lomos
I totally agree!
gitimgirl He’s a Master of it.
It’s the way Tom looks at her, like she’s his child and he’s immensely proud of her. So beautiful to see such devotion from a coach to his protege.
Totally agree.
You are right, I noticed it as well
He could not have picked me back in the day with that crush I had on him. He would have been like... "Gone girl. Your too much🌝 I would have been serenading the heck out of him"💕
@@batk0427
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Honestly.
He definitely is Godsend to her
She has a rare and unique timbre in her voice. Just imagine if no one turned.
They would've never knew what an impeccable person and voice she has.
It would have been a colossus loss to the art of singing if we missed the performance
So true. What a loss that would be.
Her voice does something to my soul…I could listen to her all day
Some of these judges just search for the same voices over and over. From the moment this girl opened her mouth you could hear the unique tones and texture. It was unique ! Thanks Tom for not letting this one get away.
D Montro agree
It's like no one turning for Aretha Franklin..
@@Janjan-sm2rj right 💜
Well said 💜
Especially The texture it's like honey pot.so sweet and so soft to hear.
Thank you Tom for seeing what other people couldn’t see in her , If there wasn’t one old judge , she’ll probably never get this far.
Tom Jones is a mature wise judge and a real class act. His presence is so bright that he will never be old in my eyes.
So beautiful her voice like a bit of natural magic angelic
“Older judge”
“Mature judge”
What are you, a kid???
If she sighs, I’ll buy it.
She’s PHENOMENAL!
And there’s Tom with the IMPECCABLE song choices. Gosh. Goosebumps.
I concur. I'm just seeing this now in 2022 and I'm going on a search to see what else she has done since then. Oh, btw I was thrilled to see Tom Jones turn his chair. That just made my "crush" on him much more. I also wish Ms.Riter much success.
If she sighs...😃
@@denisefizzriddick2134 me too. She's Amazing 👏 😍 ❤️ Regards Perth Australia
Goosebumps listening to the perfect duet song choice ❤
She doesn't seem to be thriving without Tom Jones collab. The songs she has recorded since the show do not offer up her range. Hope she changes her musical direction soon
She sounds like an alternative indie pop artist. Something that’s missing in the industry rn.
Yes. Just like woman vocalist of "London Grammar". The same overtones.
Absolutely
@@nadiamordvinkin6310 Dolores O'Rierdan from the Cranberries would LOVE HER!
She will be my next dolores and alicia and regina.. SHE IS ALL THOSE COMBINED. SHE IS DAMN GOOD.. THANKS TOM
Exactly!!!!
THIS GIRL IS ALL TALENT, BUT THE SONG CHOICES FOR HER VOICE ARE IMPECCABLE.
I agree! And that's such an important thing.
In the first few seconds of her audition, I could hear Delores (Cranberries) and Florence (and the Machine). Loved that she got to cover their songs!
Well Tom still did a good job.. she nailed them to win, which is the main thing
Totally agree! Was thinking the same thing...then read your comment. Tom Jones did this young woman’s unique voice justice. First he, alone, recognized her talent and then he showcased it beautifully.
100% TRUE
As a Nigerian, I'm proud of her. I'm proud knowing that her dad is from Ondo State where I was born and raised.
Oh you're a Nigerian now? Thought you were Biafra/IPOB
No he's LGBT proud
If that’s the only reason you’re proud, you’re in a shameless self hating state
@@mayamikolynn6825 You don't understand Nigerian culture. It is very familial. I am also a yoruba girl although Ifeanchukwu is Ibo raised in Ondo State. The simplest way to explain the feeling is seeing your sister win. The love, pride and joy that explodes in your heart can't be explained.
Go girl!!!
I don’t know if I’m enjoying her performance more or watching the admiration and pride Tom Jones expresses each time she performs. It’s like seeing him as a young man performing and his face lit up like that. Thank you for so many memories and your talent - thank you
I am stunned at this woman's voice. Just such a controlled crystal bell. Her tone is one for the ages. If Sir Tom Jones, hadn't have turned!?? Eva Cassidy, who died almost unknown, and wasn't discovered by the masses but ultimately sold 100 million recordings!
She has the voice of a folk singer, very deep and earthy, with an occasional runaway yodel. Those high notes she hit, were a pleasant surprise.
SHE DOES. LOVE HER PITCH
Yes, absolutely 👍👍
Yes! It was a great surprise to me too!
Thank you. I was trying to remember the kind of music name.
Another Phobe Snow...
Her voice is warm, soulful, and entrancing. She has a world sound...
Completely ripped off from Florence Welch who ironically she covered. Good voice though. You wont ever hear her album.
Very Indie...love her
Yes, she has a world sound. US can't handle her.
I love Tom Jones !!!
Omg same!!!!!
Song choices matter and Tom picked some great songs, perfect for her voice. She sounds like Florence from Florence and the Machine. Really good singer!
I was looking for this coment.
I agree, his coaching and songs were perfect and genuinely right for her, as a Master singer he used his genius to pick incredible songs for her voice, I think any other coach there would have tried to adapt her to unfitting songs and she would have been let go of.
I was trying to think of who she sounded like. You are soooo right
True
That duet with Tom is just absolute beauty. ♥️♥️♥️
What about the part where we also realize she's fucken sitting down🥺🥰🥰🥰😍😍
agree 100%
It’s my favorite!❤
My favorite too. Why i'm so happy for both them hehe
@@kwedini1181 Yes. I think Tom had just had a hip replacement.
Tom Jones genuinely looks like her as if he's a proud grandfather, though - just too cute and cool... It's almost as if he's about to cry every single time he sees her at it
Word
Yeess! Tears Everytime it seemed.
He looks so proud of her, and he looks like he is enjoying every note. Like, getting high on her voice.
Yes like Blake with Toenisha on the USA The Voice and she picked Blake in top 4 came in second last season. Blake also won. Didn't Tom win with her as well
Agreed!
TomJones has lived a long life,and init he has learned to know when a voice is special, hats off to him!!
That man is a true legend and totally deserves his knighthood. He did such an amazing job with her.
Her voice had me in tears. She is amazing...
You’re right about that! It takes a phenomenal singer, performer with years of experience to discern uniqueness. When she auditioned he listened, not trying to figure out her gender. He hit that button. 😊
Been years since she has won the voice and I'm still watching this video she is still amazing all these years later.
Tom recognised another story teller. Her voice is so ethereal and expressive. I could listen to Ruti all day!!
Tom Jones sure knew what songs suited her voice. Sometimes the mentors miss what would really help the contestant showcase their voice but he didn't.
Anything would suit her voice, by the sound of it... or anybody
Tom’s expression was more like, “I’m a proud grandpa rather than just a coach”. Goosebumps ☺️
Yes
I thought the same thing!
On point!
Yeah agree, like to see him smiling like that, what a wise man
@@Wirasnita seeing him happy makes, me happy. That warm and positive feeling just by seeing his expression.
I'm just finding her for the first time and I'm blown away. She handles every vocal challenge like it's easy. She never sounds like she has to rev up for a high note or a vocal distortion. It all just comes out flawlessly in any range. She makes it look so easy! Her skill is mind-blowing. Wow! I'm so glad someone took notice. It only took one.
One of the most gifted singers of all time! She's already a super star, she just needed a stage!
She only needed 1 person to believe in her....and it was Tom Jones....wow!
Arise Sir Tom Jones
It really takes "one".."Sing 🎶🎵🎼🎤 'One ☝️is like a dream come true"...🙋😄❤️
the legend""only artist like him will know the true talent hidden in those tiny,tiny boxes 👌
Sir Tom Jones next time
@@achmadfauzan2734 r I I am still working on my schedule for this
What I love about Tom is when he turns he gives this huge genuine welcoming smile, like he is saying, "Yes I picked you because you are awesome and I want to be a part of your journey"
And what occurs for the others on his team who don't get very far???
@@paulortiz2035 simple she's the best among the best
I watched a few times. One time I teared up.
Will never understand how only Tom turned. Ruti’s voice is stunning
I agree!
My God!!! Enthralling!!! That she's got Nigerian roots makes it even more of a proud moment for me. Go girl!!
Do you think she should have won first place in the competition?
@@saraht9442 No way
Simple, it's takes a winner to recognize a winner..
What I found crazy is that the ENTIRE audience heard the unique sound. They were screaming to hit the button. I was like WHAT?? Are you deaf??? They were worried if it was a girl or boy.... Didn't matter... What. Do. You. Hear. ??? Because that soothing voice was insane from the first note. One of my favorites from the voice.
Agreed
Exactly! If the crowd hadn't cheered and begged the judges to turn, even Tom may not have turned. THANKYOU British Audience!
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿🌹🥀🧜🧜🧜🌴🦋🦋 agreed
I thought the same ❤️UNBELIEVABLE!!!
@@rohekore1 no you wrong m8....Tom does not turn straight away. You saw the point Sir Tom turned, when she hit the high note, thats all Tom was waiting for, the audience were talking to Sir Tom by the way.
They ask if its girl or boy coz their team could be full or lacking girls / boys
I Love that Ruti never over sings a piece. She lets each note flow logically to the next. She experiences songs.
I love the way Tom looks at Ruti. Making him so proud like a papa. ❤️ He’s almost in tears at one point. Her voice to me is better than the original artist. I loved their performance together, priceless.
Yes, I love the way Tom looks at her.
He is so supportive.
I saw Tom Jones several times in concert
True altos are often so underappreciated because of their lack of over the top high notes,but music isn't just about that it's about singing every note with grace and love
Well said!!
I was an alto in the school. I felt very under appreciated. Thank you for your comment.❤
That's true
No truer words have been said
Absolutely!
Finally - someone won who was a straight-up singer (no need for hollering or fancy dynamics). Just the quality of her voice was all that was needed.
Said it best
Chill....We need all kinds of poeple on earth
She has a similar quality like Joan Armatrading, and I think Tom Jones picked that up. She is wonderful.
@@Sweetlyfe Also maybe Tracy Chapman.
Yet only tom got it
What a memorable voice she possesses! The way she twists the notes on runs is beyond beautiful. Wow, I’d buy her music album.
Absolutely amazing voice. It's as if he is mesmerized by her
.
Yes.
I love how he deeply cares about her and is so proud of her.
A little bit of him will go with her for the rest of her life. 💖
I would pay to go to her concert! 😊
I loved her duet with the girl in the battle - they were stunning together. 🥰
WOW I had goosebumps watching her sing💓💓
Wow! Such a gorgeous, rich voice, like a cello! And I love that she doesn’t over-embellish notes. She keeps it simple, clean, clear, which has a directness. So moving!
Yes, yes. Like a cello. Well said.
I wish i could like this a thousand times. Her voice is magical.
I agree
Indeed.
Seriously magical
I hope she is able to do something with her talent. I'm going to look her up after posting this.
I agree she certainly is.
She was really damn good!!but the reason only one chair turned was because that coach was the only one who could deal with that voice.....
It was his type
s no coaching for her perfect pitch what a Blessing from GOD
You can have a four chairs in a room nas Just need one to believe in you ...
Period
We don't know the real context. The wery possible thing is that Tom was the only coach having placr in his team.
She absolutely did not possess perfect pitch btw. She was flat quite a bit but that's technique and discipline vs hardware meaning not an ear issue.
When she sings with the first woman in the face-off, they sound INCREDIBLE together! I think too often these shows focus too much on individuals, and ignore genius in some of the pairings. Some of the best musical acts in the last 75 years are duets, trios, and groups.
Absolutely! Don't know how they picked between Ruti and Saskia ...
I would buy an album of these duets. I agree they often come out so amazing
They were 2 of the weaker ones in the groups, but they both upped their game massively in round 2.
I AGREE!!!
I hate the battles, and it's why I no longer look forward to watching The Voice. Too many excellent artists exited at this stage. 😢
Yes Sir Tom it’s a wonderful world all because you turned your chair you gave us the pleasure of watching Ruti blossom before our very eyes.
It doesn't matter how many mentors turn around. The main thing is who turns around. And he immediately hears the star. This is many years of experience.
Yeah, for real.
He didn't "immediately" hear a star. Took some coaxing from the audience for him to even consider turning.
Us deepvoiced girls are feeling represented!!
Queen Of Waters. Talk to me baby! Say it low........Real lowwww. Lol
Real women sing Tenor
Yes!!!!
Yes, thank you ~ as well Ruti has Quite the range ~~~
Saying she has a gift is an understatement. She is precious.
She is so talented and gifted . As soon as she started singing , something about her soothing voice and captivating . Happy she won !!!!!!
On her first duet her vocals are much clearer than her partner
It suits her voice much better than the voice of the other contestant. The right song choice is so important. She lucked out there. I like the otherd womans voice bit this song was not for her.
True 100%
Agree 100%
Verena S i wonder if it’s luck. I think often the coach knows who he’s most interested in and chooses a song to highlight that voice.
Her Partner was horrible
I love to see people who sings easily... she doesn't push from her self it's just flaws like water
Agree
*flows
@@markparana2094 thank you:) English is not my language, but i am trying:))
well stated. flawlessly sung -- last piece and the semi final piece was beyond the others but her voice is rich and full and she sings effortlessly and hits all the notes with perfection. Very enjoyable to listen to.
That's the first thing I noticed- she wasn't struggling, straining, or acting nervous. I felt like her voice was "giving me a hug'' in every song she sang. It comforted me.
The way she is moving her hands when she sings higher notes - like a flower opening up to the sun ☀️
beautifully observed, thank you for writing that
This is a prime example of "Its not how you start, but how you finish"!!!!!
Looking at Sir Tom Jones singing with her kinda looks like he’s singing with his granddaughter!!
Dominique Archer I always knew tom jones was Welsh but I honestly from a very young age always believed he was bi racial it was only last year I actually said it aloud & every1 laughed at me an said I was an idiot he is a white Welsh man do u see wat I see in him by any chance? Or is it just me?
TeriXXXLouise I think I do!! I’ve always thought he was bi racial!! Is he not?
I think you mean great granddaughter! I know she's 18, 19 so rounding to 20. Genealogy does that for averaging ages when uncertain.
She: 20
Ma/Pa 40
Gma/Gpa 60
GGf/GGm 80 Yep. Tom's 79!
@Dominique Archer no he is not his just a very handsome Welsh man lol
@@terixxxlouise7504 I always thought so too.
Revisiting and listening to her performances sends shivers and goosebumps through my body. Low key feeling proud she has a Nigerian side 🇳🇬
Love her voice...
Me too Nigeria to the world
So Proud! 9ja!
I’m NaijAmerican also… and I feel strong goose bumps, there is something about this Nigerian genes that continue to scream EXCELLENCE.
I’m not surprised
Me too!
The look of pride in Tom's face every time she finishes does it for me. It takes one person believing in you to make the impossible possible.
Back again to watch my all time favorite winner of the voice pls release a song for us🤲🏻🤲🏻🤲🏻
She doesnt need to sound too high pitch like others, she has her own unique voice that makes her special.
Definitely unique. Like Sadé. A space is unique
Unique doesn't equate to exceptional. I don't enjoy her voice. It just doesn't make me happy or want to hear more.
@@gforceforever Each to their own
@@joolsrowe8858, you think? 🙄
@@gforceforever Yup!!
Such a haunting, mystical voice. Unique and very deserving. That duet with Tom was magical.
Oh yes, I was looking for the proper words to describe the her voice, and I almost gave up until I saw your comment: haunting and mystical.
Thank you.
Yeah...those are the words I've been looking for
Yes and the songs by The Cranberries fit her to a T. Esp. Dreams.
Fantastic duet with Sir Tom Jones!!!
I’ve never found myself so swerved into such ethereal voice such as hers. She has the soul and the twist of the west with her other west African side. It makes such a gracefulness, a kind you live to bless the mysteries for giving you a soul to enjoy. She’s a gift and I’m proud to be her cousin.
Your cousin?... How far guy
Am proud of you as Nigerian 🇳🇬
Wow!
But was she the best? Absolutely not. Donel should have won.
What a beautiful young lady,with such a unique voice! Thank you Tom for choosing her,and giving her the right choice of songs! What a Beautiful duet you both performed! ❤
When she sings Dog Days are Over, she is just immense. Such a beautiful voice
I love her not only because of her beautiful voice but also because of how she stands there and just enjoys the song, not trying to amaze at any cost
The duet was where she truly outshines the other girl
The other girl does sing pretty damn good though - that's how & why she got there
The other girl was shite (at least in that song). A lot of people do make it very far because of how we romanticise "flawed" voices.
Exactly. The other girl was not good
I thought they sounded amazing together.
Yeah that other girl’s intonation was really off.
She is so uniquely magnificent. Tom is mesmerized and emotionally invested.
Sir Tom did a wonderful job coaching Ruti. A great coach works with his protégé to expand on the singer's strengths while helping overcome perceived weaknesses like low self esteem and it shows in how comfortable Ruti looks over the season. Well done Sir Tom and Ruti!!
The performance with her mentor was one of the most beautiful things I ever heard ❤️
shes got a good ear for harmonising right, such a joy to listen to
You see JHud softly shaking her head in awe!😊
Tom is extremely knowledgeable and talented...
He let her shine like a diamond 💫🙌
I certainly appreciate that during Tom's duet with her, he gave her the majority of the song to sing as hers. seems most of the star judges hog most of the song for themselves!
That hog part took mi out🤣🤣🤣
Her voice is her and that’s why she won. Her voice is pure, genuine and authentic!
I quite literally teared up when she started singing dreams. Her voice is a dream
Haunting and marvelous and sweet and perfect and soothing
Me too
Tom Jones looks like a proud grandpa, just magical and beautiful
I swear, I hear her get better throughout the competition. Like, her singing gets better each time. Watch the first, then the last performance, and tell me if you agree!
Jeremiah C her control improved a lot by the end of the competition
This usually happens with the coaching and it did refine.
Definitely
yeppp totally!!!
Yesss
Her tone breaks your heart
The duet with Ruti and Tom is phenomenal . So incredible he heard her gift and turned .
She has a golden voice , a rare talent. I'm surprised she got one chair.
But all she need is one chair after all
The others did not understand her, good for her Tom was there. She gives me Enya vibes
I think possibly the guitar playing was interfering with her voice in audition. But glad she won, great voice!
Only makes sense how a golden voice recognised another.
Because she didn't appeal to their style of music. She got the right coach.
her VOICE is pure, original and unique.
Original google Florence Welch who she covered her atonal singing and phrasing style is completely ripped off or excuse me "influenced" by her surely. Original...oh just stop.
JC3 Slots! Check it out!! I don’t understand why you’re hating on that amazing girl🤷🏻♀️...
@@selintje2000 girl can sing no doubt not hating on her was just floored by your assessment.
JC3 Slots! Check it out!! Oh lol, that was the second comment ive seen from you about that girl so that’s why i assumed you were hating on her xd
I had the pleasure of attending Sir Tom Jones’s concert in South Africa during the 70’s. One cannot help but be drawn to this magnificent artist, humble, loving and forever new! He remained true to himself and set an example of a how to be a gentleman! May he live forever!❤️
I remember the first time I heard her sing on her blind audition and i was like OMG WHOA this girl is the winner. What a voice this girl has it literally gives u goosebumps. And to imagine she was a 1 CHAIR TURNED
Dolores O'Riordan must have been one of the hardest female voices to sing in recent times, period. She had the ability to switch between an angel and a thunderstorm in a single second. To see an 18 y.o. girl not only sing Dreams, but to sing it in her own way, with her own twist, but still being faithful to the original is just amazing. Ruti's voice and timbre are a true force of nature. And most likely, they will only get better with time.
You are a true connoisseur of music art
As soon as she started singing Toms antennae’s went up. The man has a good ear for talent. So very thankful he did. The world may have missed out on a rose.
The duet was amazing
Still years later and loving watching the voice video never get tired of it
Ruti has an exquisite tone to her voice. It's like listening to the way velvet feels. I can honestly say I've never heard a voice quite like hers before.
She sounded incredibly amazing singing Florence and the machine song
I agree
Velvet is a perfect way to describe her voice.👍👍
She sounds like Florence tbh
@sonja14athome you could not have said anything better....you just encapsulated everything in your simple paragraph. Bravo!
why her voice is so soothing and antidepressant 😭
I would love to hear sing zombie, and bright eyes from Watership down she is magical.
There's a deep pain in her voice it brings out all the unexplained feelings in you and tears just wellup in your eyes.
Tom Jones expressions are priceless. He is in awe of her, so proud. Amazing singer. Thank You! ❤️❤️
Tom Jones facial reactions said it all. He was in awe, he was mesmerized etcetera etcetera. Her voice is a once in a lifetime happenstance. Regards from UGANDA 🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
Reping the eac ♥️♥️ from 🇰🇪🇰🇪
Yes girl
Chi
am here mwana w'eka❤🤝🇺🇬🇺🇬🇺🇬
I'm sorry to say it but imagine this girl singing somewhere over the rainbow 🥺🥺 I'd be crying my whole heart out ❤
You're so right on it❤
You hit the nail on the head
That would be beautiful💗
Girl you know it!!
Agree! It would be amazing!
My first time hearing of her. She is amazing. Idk why but I cried most of this. I went through something very traumatic a few days ago. It’s added on to a rough three years. The purity, authenticity, and power of her voice touches me. Altos are used as backbones of choirs but are under appreciated. I’m glad Ruti is being appreciated. Tom and her dad look so proud. Id love to see her packages to learn about her.
I hope you are doing better.🦸🏾♀️💨♥️
I hope her voice helps in healing you❤️
I wanted to love your comment a million times but couldn't. @ altos being so under-appreciated. Altos are the best parts of choirs.
I'm hoping you're better now.. Hugs
Tom's experience never ceases to amaze me. Great job Tom
Saw her singing live at a festival last year.. it was such a magical moment. She just got on stage without any rehearsal and blew me away. Only just now getting around to watching the voice performances.
Hello... would you be so kind to tell me her name?? I’m dying to know!
@@franklemongello7851 : Ruti Olajugbagbe
Her song picks were spot on. I especially loved the duet with Tom Jones. So moving.
These ladies KILLED it!
I love Tom Jones. McArthur Park was one of my favorites. I never missed a show. He has a soulful voice. I was his biggest fan but he didn't know it.
Tom is a legend he recognized the gift in Ruti long before the other artists.
Wonderful,another young lady with a genuin soul vibration,angelic voice.succes,blessings.
When Tom sings, "I hear babies cry, I watch them grow," he's so emotional, like he's so aware of his own mortality.
Aw so true. He is amazing and this was the best duet ever. Just...ever.
Even I get teary eyed watching this part.
Please don't say that because I want Tom Jones to live a lot longer from now...
Maybe he is regretful for the son he missed out on🤷🏾♀️
Perhaps he has loved many of those babies.
I learnt to love Jennifer Hudson. I thought shed be one of many divas like the others but shes like Jessie J. Shes a purist, she just loves music so much that when something is so damn good she will be happy, sad, anything and you can feel her passion. You can see this here, its not her contestant but shes in love.
It's so trueeee she's just so real when it comes to music.. you good at it she makes you aware😩....all the clips I've watched she shows that trait
Beautiful voice.Pray she will use it to glorify the one who gave her this awesome 'Gift'.
She’s real. I love her!
@@florencesmith-raymond82 her mother and father, she doesn't need to glorify them, they are just happy to see her happy.
Florence Smith-Raymond @tewaewae is just another person who has a UA-cam account like you, they were replying to your comment about Jennifer Hudson, they do not know your parents don’t worry, they were talking about jennifer hudson parents giving her the gift of singing!🙂
The duet with Tom Jones was priceless I’m beyond words 🥰
Her voice is so unique, once in a lifetime, the audience knew it, I don’t understand why they all four didn’t turn and fight for this amazing artist!
Same question am asking myself tom saw that special thing in her only few with much experience can relate like tom mi lob her voice,,❤️
Same question am asking myself tom saw that special thing in her only few with much experience can relate like tom mi lob her voice,,❤️
Maybe they knew they didn't have the equipment to support her
Coz she is a rare gem
I love her, especially singing Cranberries covers. And, Tom still has his great voice. How remarkable is that?
She did really good on that song I really like her voice
Cranberries' songs suit her voice to a tee. Ruti Olajugbagbe’s voice puts her in a special class of singers. The ones that come to my mind are Dolores O'Riordan (The Cranberries), Florence Welch (Florence & The Machine), & KT Tunstall.
Tom Jones is the man like Elvis
Tom is a legend and a very intelligent man in his profession. He knew the very first time he heard her that she was headed to the top . He takes in to account all things. He is a genius and this adorable beautiful angel is just so talented!! Thank you Tom for that first chair turn!!!! Lizzie from New Orleans. ❤️🙏✌️
That duet at the end was so tasteful. No need to outshine each other. Lovely!
I know this video is two years old but I've never seen it except for now. It literally gave me goosebumps all over my body listening to her!
Can we just recognise how perfect Florence songs are for Ruti’s voice, that’s such an incredible match for her vocals!
Yep, it's the folk element of Florence's songs that fits her voice like a glove.
Her coach looks really proud all the time. He's genuinely happy!
Her voice gave me chills. It's almost as if her voice is accompanied by an instrument in her voice. Excellent song choices also.
She's very, very good. She has a voice you can listen to , easily.
Tom Jones, you were the right coach for her. I don’t think Will.I.am or the others could have done for her what Tom Jones did. He worked with her strengths and showcased the beauty of her voice. Well done!!! Anxiously waiting to see where she goes next.
I agree
None of them have the experience he has. The perfect match at the perfect time. I have never heard a contestant sing the same song twice. Loved it both times.
@@WALKER11574 a lot of contestants sing the same song twice
