RE: Haley Reinhart and 3 Idols spotted in NO
I am very impressed with this latest video. It just reaffirms that Haley does not need to be a pop princess to be wildly successful. Not sure if this is her first performance in this kind of venue, but I am sure it won't be her last.
Personally, I would prefer to see Haley in this type of setting as opposed to a noisy stadium with thousands of people. I think this young lady is going to around for a long time & it will be fun & inspiring to watch her evolution.

cherelann, I too would prefer to see Haley in this type of setting. I shared the video with my mother and she said the style of music was too slow for her taste. Go figure.

My parents are no longer alive but they would have voted for Scotty, lol. Don't get me wrong, Scotty is a very nice young man, just not my cuppa. Haley, on the other hand, makes me want to fill that cup to the brim...can't wait till she plays a venue near me.

RE: Haley Reinhart and 3 Idols spotted in NO
Pop Crush:
Quote:Haley Reinhart one again shows she’s wise beyond her years, vocally speaking. The former ‘American Idol‘ contestant — remember her? — is now signed to Interscope and recently showed off her smoky, jazzy pipes performing in a dimly lit club in New Orleans, the county seat of the blues.
The performance, unearthed by EW, is of an 11-minute rendition of Billie Holiday’s ‘God Bless the Child,’ which she also performed during Season 10. But don’t balk or scoff at the length of the clip. The 21-year-old cycles through plenty of moods and ranges well with the song, never wearing out her welcome. She even engages in a little scatting with the trumpet.
She’s such an old soul trapped in that young body. She is truly a throwback from an era long gone by. While weathered bluesmen might wonder what a young Midwestern girl knows about the blues, the pain and power in Reinhart’s potent voice certainly does the trick at conveying emotion.
It was good to hear from Haley again. It most certainly won’t be the last time.

Thanks midnightblue. I would like to share condolences with you, also. I am no spring chicken, so the death of elderly parents is to be expected. Since I have no children, their passing has left me feeling like an orphan, even at my age. Guess this could be my attraction to the blues...
I hope these posts are not too off topic, but my comments are Haley inspired. I find it easy to go off on tangents, lol.
