Original Video: • Unholy-Sam Smith and ...
----------------------------------------
Welcome back to another reaction video, folks! Today, I'm bringing you a phenomenal performance from the multi-talented Gigi De Lana covering Sam Smith's pulsating hit "Unholy."
Gigi De Lana, whose real name is Maria Carmela Catalina Moreno Balagtas, is a popular Filipino singer known for her powerhouse vocals and passionate performances. She began her journey in the music industry at a young age and gained recognition through her live streaming gigs on Facebook, charming her audience with her infectious energy and versatile voice. Her cover of "Unholy" is no exception and showcases her ability to take a song and make it entirely her own.
As for the song itself, "Unholy" is a groundbreaking track from Sam Smith, featuring a mix of their signature soulful voice with a darker, more brooding tone. The song paints a vivid picture of a narrative centered around infidelity, narrated from a unique perspective. Its hauntingly mesmerizing production and heavy, full-bodied sound have made it a sensation on platforms like TikTok, even before its official release1.

Prayers for Gigi that those nodes on her vocal cords resolve without surgery. She is currently on several months of vocal rest. Gigi is quite accomplished with her own cosmetics line, work as an actress and her vocal abilities and musicality are just awesome.

Actually there's a lot of things going in her life now she even had an accident that scares the hell out of me but thanks she came out of it alright and thanks again for the genuine concern for her sir coz she needed that. Get well soon Queen!

She was diagnosed with pre-nodules & was advised by her Dr to rest her voice for 2 months. Many singers go through that. There are more serious things happening to Gigi & get band. They were doing non-stop gigs for 2 months in the provinces. They got into a vehicular accident & she & some of the band members sustained minor injuries. They decided to perform after the accident & Gigi almost collapsed on stage. This was going to be the 2nd to the last gig they were going to do b4 she was supposed to rest.

After that, she was scammed & her bank account containing the money she saved up to pay for medical expenses for her mom who has stage 4 cancer, was depleted. She's now selling & bidding her clothes & things on FB & some fans are making fun of her. Some people are just cruel. Please pray for her, her mom & the band members.

@@lynettepascua4730 Yes I loved the way she sang this song too. She does mostly ballads but has done a few rock alternative type of songs, but this is the 1st time she's done something almost metal-goth. It's amazing bc by this performance alone, it looks as if she's been doing this genre her whole life. She really is indeed very versatile.

When I saw the thumbnail, I instantly clicked to see it because I knew you would love it. Having seen your other reactions to Dimash and other artists lauding their ability to transmit the emotion and feelings in the song, I knew this would be right up.your alley.

Please react to Gigi’s take on Maroon5’s ‘This Love’ or perhaps Frank Sumatra’s ‘Fly Me to the Moon’. She tackles different eras, different genres and somehow she makes it work! She is a singer/actress in the Philippines but during the pandemic, she started making music vlogs with her band living in her small apt where she takes care of her ailing mother. They converted her tiny garage into a makeshift studio and got it all started. Thankfully, a lot of viewers started seeing her and made her better known than she was previously before the pandemic. The Philippines is full of excellent talent and extremely competitive. With determination and sheer grit, she created a niche in the industry for herself and her band, Gigi Vibes! Thank you so much for supporting her.

Thanks for your great insights! You vocalized perfectly a lot of the things that I wanted to say about this performance. I have only seen the original song by Sam Smith aside from this video, mainly because I wanted to see how it was originally performed. I've heard that a lot have attempted to interpret this song in their own way to the point that it became so overplayed and every other every other video was almost the same as the previous one. Gigi's interpretation really stood apart and above from even the original because, as you observed, she was fearless in showing the sensuality and darkness that the song conveyed - even without the props. Gigi has the knack for picking out the correct emotion to attach to every word or phrase with focused precision. This is very consistent in every performance she gets into. She's always in the "moment" of the song. I look forward to more of your reactions to Gigi's covers. Some notables (from so many) I can recommend are: "All I Ask" (Adele), "I'm Not the Only One" (Sam Smith), "Officially Missing You" (Tamia).
