Absolutely excellent!!!!! A little less volume on the guitar would be the only way to enhance this beautiful musical offering. This has got to be one of the best covers on YT. Great voice and great looking lady. My wish for this wonderful woman is that she is as happy inside herself as she has made those of us on the outside who have had the privilege of hearing this song.
Well I almost skipped by you because most of the covers are a waste of time but once in a while (a long while) there's one I add to my future stars playlist and your in. There's only about five others on that list for a two year count so keep em comming you sound great. Nice song choice.
I worked with Kathy Young back in the 80's and 90's and you come the closest to any one I have heard......get an agent as you have a great voice.....just bring down the music a bit...............
I have listen to Kathy Young way before you were born, I never heard anyone even get close to matching her style, but you are there girl. Keep it going. And tell me where I can get a CD, I can't figure out how to get this music on my ipod, itunes doesn't have it so I need a CD.
You have real talent. Keep singing those oldies - they suit you perfectly and there is a real need to for lady singers who can move people with their voice. And you do just that.
Well done Rachel. A very good performance with real feeling. Nice to find someone modern making genuine interpretations of the oldies which are so dear to many of us!
Hope you (and your musicians) keep on rolling long into the future!
What a Voice! love the A Thousand Stars. Your voice is so Haunting and beautiful! Do you sing with a Band? Do you do any more Oldies song? if so which ones? thank you for doing on of my favorite Olides song A Thousand Stars by Cathy Young.
I guess I'm not allowed to insult guitar players anymore since my comments are always sensored. So..I think this guy is just the best. None better...(**&^$#$%)
She sounds great, very retro feel and look...but, the guitar tone is not even close to right. She should lose her current "Band", move to Las Vegas and become a huge star! If the guitar player in this posting is her husband or boyfriend I'm sure he wouldn't want to hold her back.
WOW! Kathy Young would be proud! I loved your version and baby you captured the charm of this song. It takes this old bird back to the radio airwaves of my youth. Thank You young lady.
WOW! I stumbled on this by accident. I always loved this song and you really have a pretty voice. I found myself wanting to listen. I think there is more in there. Just some CONFIDENCE is all you need to come crashing through onto the music scene. With your pretty voice, this pretty song and Kathy Young's influence you can take this to the NEXT LEVEL. The RACHEL STOKES rendition. I will be watching for you to light up the night sky. A new STAR is twinkling.
One of my favorite oldies songs...Awesome job!...that other poster was right- stand up so you'll get more power from your diaphram and you'll also be able to move (you can tell you want to). Don't be shy-you're a SINGER....
p.s. - maybe record yourself singing harmony in the background (overdub)
Very nice. Re-record again. This time stand up, you will be able to push that song out like Kathy Young. You have a great voice. a background backp would also be a great addition. My Best; Joe...
That was VERY VERY good. I have always loved that song, and just recently found the Kathy Young video. Then found yours. Your voice sounds just like Kathys. And the background music sounded just like the record.
I thought you did a "MAGNIFICIENT" job singing this particular song. It has been one of my "alltime" favorties from a "classy lady", with a wonderful voice. Your version of this song was FANTASTIC. Good luck in the future.
Lovely Thank You
