Hi Cuan, I have watched your duets with Allie a lot and I find them magical. I have watched other duets that Allie has performed and their is not the magical smiles between them that makes your duet's lovely, that gives me goosebumps. Please get together to sing more duets. ❤😉 When Dr. Reynolds was commenting on the time that Allie came in to finish off a phase. It looks to me that Allie was going to start the phase and you decided to start the phase and have Allie complete it.

@bettydahlgren6773 3 жыл бұрын

Can’t find the words to tell you how much I love love love your duets with Allie! I try to catch every video - you both are amazing. Unchained Melody is my favorite AND this is the video I play every day for one of my petsits. I hold him; we listen to you; he falls asleep!😂😘

@reynafavis8278 3 жыл бұрын

Cuan, I do not think Dr. Reynolds gave you your due, although you were humble in your response. Kudos for your modesty. As someone who enjoys music and is a listener with minimal musical background (your REAL audience), this was my reaction: I did not click away when I Allie began to sing. I thought, "Wow. She is really, really good." Her talent convinced me to stay and listen in a relaxed sort of way, enjoying her style. But when you started singing, I sat up and took notice. I thought, "Holy crap! This guy can sing. He should be on Broadway." Your voice is at its best in the lower range -- like melted chocolate for my aural senses. Songs like this that show your range -- the honeyed low notes, the bright high notes -- engage listeners at many sensory levels and really showcase your talent. Best wishes for your future success.

I see Allie & Cuan as having a lot of respect for each other as performers. They’re both learning from each other & teaching each other with each performance they do. Cuan had voice lessons for years & is also has great showmanship skills. Allie is a self taught singer with a lot of real live performances to her experience. Also, Allie has one very beautiful, but unusual voice. Together, they’re absolutely amazing. Hope to see more duets of them soon.

One interesting aspect of this story is that Allie sang this same song alone on the street a few months earlier and only got 345K views. But, when she sang together with Cuan suddenly the view count went to 18 MILLION! Maybe the best example ever of the virtue of doing duets all the time.

You will also like an acaopela band, Home Free. Can I recommend "How Great Thou Art", "Seven Bridges Road" just anything they do. They won the American Sing Off Season 4 in 2014 or 2013, I believe. I've never heard such voices in my life. They just finished the 50th anniversary song with Don McLean, American Pie, have worked with Kenny Rogers, the Oak Ridge Boys, Alabama, etc. They have 1 million subscribers..they are amazing.

I so loved when it was his turn to sing and he was like "not working!" so he looks over to Allie and pulls her back in with a nod. Then he changes key to adapt... she does too. Then his operatic voice comes back in and finishes the song hitting a beautiful operatic falsetto. There's so much to like here. These people walking by must have something very important to do to skip this marvelous performance that I would spend good money to see if they came to my town.
