  They followed Sohyang backstage after this performance and she collapsed in an armchair, telling another contestant that she was literally trembling all over she had put so much into the song. She then related that she had broken down and cried time after time while practising the song, it was so emotional for her. I don&apos;t know how she can deliver such intense performances without breaking down!<br><br>Sohyang is, in fact, a 100% self taught singer except for a mere handful of sessions with Seth Riggs in 2010 when she was on holiday in Los Angeles. She taught herself by imitation, beginning with Mariah Carey&apos;s &quot;Music Box&quot; CD and then moving on to Celine and Whitney. Nothing like imitating the best, eh? Sohyang has about 15 or 20 live performances that are simply the best I have ever seen by anyone. She is now the <i>de facto</i> standard for female pop singers. Sohyang really <i>is</i> the joy of music. 😉<br><br>It is hard to believe Sohyang was on the verge of giving up singing altogether in 2016, isn&apos;t it?

  She opened her performance in the competition with this piece, wouldn&apos;t want to follow that. &nbsp; She does a superb cover of I will always love you in the begin again series.

  Great reaction. Suggest You Raise Me Up from same show next. She&apos;s wearing white dress/wrap w/ black sash. Best rendition. Then Everyone...a complete 7+ minute vocal masterpiece. Use the Vimeo version. Has English subtitles. This &quot;competition &quot; is really just a pseudo one. All the singers on it are already famous established stars. It&apos;s more of a bragging rights type situation along with some theme for each show. She performed Lean On Me for the Michael Bolton special. Side note, her performance of Lean On Me actually alone won the Banff World Music Award for this show. Dont stop w/Sohyang. Soooo much more to hear. HAGD

  One of her top songs. This was the first song I ever heard her sing, I never get tired of it. <br>This is her arrangement, she arranged all the contest songs with her husband and team.

  Thanks, Bethany. Sohyang&apos;s mix is legendary. However, no reaction I&apos;ve ever seen has mentioned Sohyang&apos;s syncopation with the choir. She comes in just before or just after the choir, and it beautifully accentuates her voice -- typical of gospel singing, but brilliantly executed in this performance.
