omg...wow..you literally made me cry..this was amazing but now i need a tissue..its like you channeled Judy for 4:03 but for all phases of her life...beautiful
she sounds like the child version of Judy at the start and sounds like older Judy towards the end, I think that's what she was going for, hence the crying. she may have been trying to make a larger statement here.
@introspy I don't understand anything of the message she's trying to bring through, I admit. The only thing I'm sure of is that her eyes are completely empty, in every single video, and that most of the times the characters she interprets end up crying, even when this is not needed.
I find the way she articulates pretty irritating, also.
I do not understand what she is trying to transmit and I would actually love to.
In any case, this is not something I'd like to watch on stage.
@LaraCantos there was a useful comment that someone else made which can be summarized "the evolution of Judy's career through her most famous work". The rest is just aesthetics. Either way she's an artist trying to make a statement, it doesn't have to be everyone's cup of tea.
I've loved the Wizard of Oz ever since I was 2 years old. And this song calmed me down with all of my health problems and such growing up. And as you can probably guess how much the song means to me.
Well, Amy. You did it. You really touched me. You were like the spirit of Judy Garland. You did wonderfully. And that's a lot coming from someone who's listened to the song a million times over. The crying set the emotion perfectly. You deserve to be on broadway or something of the like.
Amazing at the beginning, then got out of control. When volume changes, you have to grab each note on spot, not let the notes drag you out. I love your raw emotion coming out at the end. Thank you, a very beautiful tribute.
I KNEW IT! i just watched your video teaching how to learn any accent and i knew right away that your 5 steps also can apply to singing, so then i knew you must be able to sing just as good as you change you accent
I know this is slightly off topic...but can someone or amy do a video on how to do this hair it would be really helpful for a short film i'm going to be in soon thank you :D
I can guarantee you that each and every one of these queens who criticize
Ms. Walker have no talenet WHATSOEVER which they would put up to public
purview. If they do, I ask them to create a link to their video...I thought not. It's easy to be a tired old queen kvetching someone else's talent when no talent is possessed by the critic. Miss Thing, your pitiful attempts at belittling a talent far in access of your own is pointless, pathetic, and points to your sorry lack of manners and civility.
I'm sorry but this was just bizarre. I don't know anything about Judy Garlands personality or mental health but what I gathered from the "colors" you portrayed, she must have needed some type of antipsychotics or mood stabilizers.
I actually do not think she sounds incredibly like her. Judy had a very distinct tone that Amy does not. Obviously still an amazing performance, but I would never mistake her voice for Judy's.
This video has never failed to send chills down my spine and bring tears to my eyes. Being an actress as well, you and Judy Garland both inspire me to no end. You really do a fabulous tribute to her.
Well, I discovered Ms. Amy Valker a couple days ago, and I am knocked out. You have a musician's ear, an writer's insight into character, an actor's ability to submerge yourself into that character, and an artistic sensibility that is so smart. Love it! All the best.
this has to be one of the most amazing things i've ever seen on youtube! much better than repeatedly watching people fall off skateboards and vomit on each other!!
Your singing is amazing, you are great at sounding like other people but the quality of your impersonations gets lost because your facial expressions kill it. Your eyes look rather crazed
if anyone else was singing and making these kinds of videos i would say . this is gay and turn it off. its just your so damn good at what your doing that , things that i dont care for at all. i cant get enough
Ok. I have to admit, sometimes when you say super hippie things I get put off, but Amy. Let me tell you (and I'm sure many other people have) that I am beyond impressed. This is so spot on for Judy Garland - the way she sings, and opens her mouth and even moves her hands and her big doe eyes when she was young - and also I'm jealous of you're being able to cry. This was more beautiful than beautiful. Please, please do something with your talent. Keep on keepin on. Much love to ya sis
It's sad that beautiful, raw talent like this stays hidden from the mainstream, yet seen by many, many people online, and liked by almost all of them (don't let the haters get you down, Amy).
This was one of the best homages to Judy Garland I've heard and seen, and your raw emotion makes this even more touching. Loved every moment!
NUTS! A stupid remark got a thumbs up from me that I can't retract - I'm so sorry! Great vids Amy, you have more talent in your little finger than half the so-called A-Listers of today! Good on you - LOVING your vids! =D
brava ,great range and emotion.and don't pay too much attention to the negative comments here:youtube seems to attract its share of small minded people.Live your dream
Excellent portrayal of Miss Garland- from beginning to end. You have all of her life's sorrow squeezed into one song, and it's honestly amazing. You're rather fabulous, Miss Walker. Really.
During the mid part.....it seems you are yelling.......I think this may be because you have a bad mic....it doesnt pick up the louder voice nicely....
Absolute sheer class. I seriously think that you are an AMAZING actress. Few people would be able to do this as astonishngly well as you did it in my opinion. Bravo Amy, Bravo!!!
so..... why don't I see you on TV man... you are sooooo good not to mention very pretty as well., would love to hire you for a party.... gAY MEN would love you.... keep up the cool videos....
