Hi. As always, a great Courtney reaction. What an incredible performance. Not only was the performance spectacular, but the back story was pretty amazing as well On April 29th, the New York Pops honored Clive Davis with a huge concert at Carnegie Hall. Everyone who is anyone in music was there. Courtney was invited personally by Clive to open the show. She blew off the roof and the doors and brought the entire audience to their feet at Carnegie in a standing ovation with this rip roaring, stage dominating rendition of Janis Joplin's 'Piece of my Heart'. Janis was Clive's first signee. It was unbelievable. Courtney shared the stage with many all time greats tied to Clive like Barry Manilow, Dionne Warwick, John Mellencamp, Busta Rhymes and many more. The New York Pops released a 2+ minute clip you mentioned of her performance (which makes up part of this video). It now has over 2.7M views on the Pops site (along with 3.2M on TikTok). By far the most views of any video the New York Pops has released since they started posting in 2014. Too bad they didn't release the whole thing, because Courtney's full performance was spectacular and it would have been fabulous to see it all without it being pieced together. So far only one other individual performance has been released by the Pops from that concert, and that just a few days ago. Kind of says something about how fabulous they thought it was. I love the conductor's reaction as well. As you said, if you watch the him, rather than Courtney (which is hard when she just nailed the song), the conductor sneaks many long peaks at Courtney's performance instead of remaining focused on his musicians. The look on his face says it all. The same can be said for the guitarist. Let's be real. If you were on stage, 15 feet away from this magnificent performance, how could you not help but sneak a peak. It's not very often that you get to hear the voice of a lifetime. It was mind boggling hearing her live. Take how great she sounds digitally, multiply it by ten, and that gives some sense of how sensational she sounds live. She truly is a generational level artist, and that may be an understatement. Latest news on Courtney is that she has recently finished recording the original songs for her debut album. They still have to be mixed, and there will be a single or two released before her full album drop, but the day is getting close. The clips she has shared of her album songs have been fabulous. Her album will be epic. There will be a lot more Courtney music to react to soon. Can't wait for you to hear what she has in store for her album.

Always enjoy your reactions! From New York Courtney and her producer Kevin Bowe travelled to Minnesota and she finished recording the vocals for her album at his studio there. (Fun Fact: Though they released 5 new songs together last year, Courtney and Kevin had never met face to face until he attended this concert with her. They had only facetimed as they worked together remotely.) Thank you for this, Love it!

Great reaction by a Frenchman to a wonderful British performer in a famous American venue! You obviously appreciate Courtney's many attributes, but you astutely observed her need to thank the musicians. I had a precious phone call with Courtney yesterday, actually, and almost (but did not) mentioned that to her--she doesn't need my advice. Courtney is in her element when singing but is not yet fully comfortable on stage before and after. She's getting there, and her actual performances are golden!

The conductor got COURTERIZED ❤

Je remarque que vous avez une affinité particulière pour Courtney Hadwin. 😁 Bonne chance !!!

meh....
