This was the Version from "WestLife" he gentleman at 05:45 was Shane Filan of the Irish boy band "Westlife", who also had "You Raise Me Up" as a hit in Great Britain. This episode on Immortal Song 2 is Shane Filan Special so all the invited singers performed his songs with their own interpretation. the pre-performance interview segment, Sohyang mentioned that this rendition represents her personal story, presumably about her faith. If her Arirang Alone gives you a trip about Korean history, Sohyang's masterful "You Raise Me Up" delivered a spiritual journey.

Listen to ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’ sung by Sohyang. The arrangement is good and the song is really good. The KZread title is "[HIT] 불후의명곡2 - 소향, 사이먼 앤 가펑클의 ‘Bridge Over Troubled Water’.20150509". The uploader is "KBS Kpop". kzread.info/dash/bejne/dWqdqsptqaXec9I.html

You will find that this is just an "average" performance for Sohyang when it comes to her epics i.e. 'Bridge Over Troubled Water', 'I Have Nothing', 'Lean On Me', and the uncomparable 'Everyone' (make sure to use the Vimeo version w/ CC on). However, as impressive as all of those are, her performances on the show 'Begin Again' busking with a small gorup of musicians and singers around Korea are mind-blowing. Her subtle and delicate choices in the stripped-down acoustic arrangements are just beautiful. In a group of excellent singers she stands out prominently. I would suggest 'I Will Always Love You' (she sings the sax solo), 'If I Ain't Got You', 'Never Enough', and any of the others on this playlist kzread.info/head/PL0qKlaJIAGmkqREjAcO-g0SU1VG4iFcoo

Still I can't believe that she was really sick because she has pneumonia.

She was very sick at this time with pneumonia and she sang like this. THE BEST in this planet

"It's on another universe" Can't stop LOL after having tears listening to the song.

A woman who overcame cancer and all kinds of hardship. She becomes the lyrics. She becomes the song. Absolute killer.

폐렴(pneumonia)을 앓고 무대에서 이번곡이 마지막이될지도 모르니 제발 이번곡 망치지 않게 해달라고 기도하고 불렀답니다, 진짜 기적이 일어나거죠, 소향이었기에 가능한거죠~

She performed that stage while she had pneumonia.. just amazing how she performed that good under the bad condition..

QUEEN SOHYANG!!!

이 세상 최고의 악기는 소향의 목이다 저 노래를 부를 당시 소향은 3년간 폐렴에 걸린 상태였다... 소향은 13년이 넘는 동안 ccm 가수였으며 암을 이겨내고 신이 다시 우리에게 돌려준 인류의 보물이다

This song was actually originally written and performed by Secret Garden (lyrics by Brendan Graham). Josh Groban is one of several hundred covers. This performance was on a show which celebrates and brings in famous singers from around the world whose songs the contestants have to reinterpret. The guest this particular episode was Shane Filan, a former member of the Irish boyband Westlife who also covered this song.

Shane Filan, a vocalist of the band Westlife, stands up and claps as soon as Sohyang's song is over. He praised her on this day. 😄

Im moved to tears. Thank you for sharing this.

I agree, she has control of vocals.

She is not just singing. She always touches my heart. There are other singers who have such a high note, and they can surprise me. But Sohyang, she can make me tear up. Perfect technique, Perfect high note, perfect emotion and Perfect stage presence. She always sings with her sincerity and takes all the audiences to her own place. Let's go to "Bridge over the troubled water" and "Lean on me" from the same TV show. You will meet another best-ever cover : ) *However she is not the female version of Dimash. She is just Sohyang.

This song was composed by Rolf Lovland of Secret Garden, their music is an Irish/Norwegian fusion. I saw them in concert, it was an unforgettable evening.

Absolutely Agree, Sohyang's talent is the same as Whitney, Mariah and Celine combined. 😌 Queen Sohyang 💖👑

i want to hear her with josh on this song as a duet .... she is 43 absolutely angelic voice i have heard her before, some refer to her as the Korean Mariah Carey and yes she has that power of whitney houston in her abilities. tom need to stir you to another cross section of josh you might be interested in hearing and also hearing you feed back - Josh Groban - Bring Him Home or per te

You are accurate in your comments, you have great musical knowledge and great sensitivity. I definitely subscribe

Congratulations! You've found one of the greatest vocalist of all time :) And you wouldn't believe how humble and warm heart she has. Thank you so much for reacting to Sohyang.

너무도 아름다운 소향님 목소리 오늘도 듣습니다~

She is a Goddess, thank you for your reaction.

The Whitney and Mariah comparison is literally the most common thing you hear people say. Her influences are very apparent in her style. She is a rare human. She's always heavily involved in the arrangements she sings, she has absolutely incredible technique that is essentially self taught. She's written fantasy novels, and so much more. She could be touring the world making millions, but instead, every performance she gives is something she chooses specifically to do. Her music is not for making money, it's for comforting those in need. And in every performance, you can see she completely connects to the song she's singing. Her musicality and technique are born out of years of singing and her sheer passion for expressing herself through song.

the craziest thing is this might not make my top 15 Sohyang performances. Check out her singing her own song, "Stay", on the show Begin Again which was recorded last year during the pandemic. Truly beautiful song and performance.

Whenever i see her singing, i drop something from my eyes.

She sang with Josh! There’s a clip on KZread somewhere.

So Hyang is a 43 year old devout Christian and gospel singer from South Korea. In her early 20's and newly married, she was diagnosed with uterine cancer, which left her unable to have children. After being healed by God, her goal has been to use her voice to bring comfort to people who are experiencing difficult times. She is not motivated by either money or fame. She has rejected numerous offers from major record labels. She is a published author of several books of fiction. She also lectures about singing and vocal technique at a South Korean university. She speaks fluent English. Even when she sings in Korean, it isn't necessary to understand the lyrics, because So Hyang is BRILLIANT at conveying the message/meaning of the song. Many of her performances she is singing ballads. However, she conquers every genre of music, including rock and rap ('Day Day'). She can spit bars as good as any rapper.

This song was originally composed by Norweigan - Irish duo, Secret garden. Rolf Lovland was the composer and Brendan Graham, the Lyricist. This beautiful song has been performed by dozens of Artists Worldwide including Josh Groban. At around 6.40 you can see the camera zoom in on Shane Filan from the Global Irish `Boy Band`, Westlife, who first really put this song on the map with a wonderful performance. Sohyang has a fantastic voice and sings with so much emotion, and does a great job here, even if it`s not my favourite interpretation. I just think the original is so good that it does not need to be altered in any major way. That is not to take away anything from her performance here. She is a star.

Speaking of Whitney, Sohyang does a killer version of, " I Will Always Love You."😎

Thank you for your Wonderful reaction to this Beautiful Lady ! Ahead of describing her as a Unbelievable Performer, I would say ,SoHyang is just a Wonderful , kind, caring and humble Lady! She is a Fighter too! So many road blocks , hardships on her Path! She was advised to not do this Performance, by her Doctor! You see she was still battling the last stages of Pneumonia! She remembered back when she was struggling with depression, after her Father left her Mother and Her! She remembered listening to Whitney, Celine and her favourite, Mariah! The comfort and peace their voices had brought her! She had been told and witnessed herself, the effect her voice also seemed to have on her Audiences ! So she said,”I must Perform as someone out in that crowd may need to hear my message in this song and I Promised, God, after he saved my life, that that is exactly what I would do with my second chance at life! So she did! She gave it her all as did those around her! She had Pneumonia 8 times over an 5 year period and battled through! She thought about quitting but while recovery I g one time. She was visiting her sister-in-law in the USA , and one day came across a Banner of a quote from former President Franklin D. Roosevelt, that said, “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.” She knew God was telling her if she quit now she may regret her choice in the future! So she headed back to Korea and signed up for , “The King of Masked Singer”, that she had been asked to join! She set a new record for consecutive wins by a women with seven segment wins and gaining a huge fan base! Though she never set out to be a professional singer, she had come to dream of being a Big Star in America! She said she had many arguments with, God , over her desire! God won and on three separate occasions she has turned down contracts with big record companies(most recently with Sony Music) She states that she had convinced herself the fame was to better serve God and reach more people who suffered! She said ,God had said it was that she was becoming prideful and wanted it for herself and that she still had work to do and a contract with a big company would restrict her and push her into more sickness! She said she agreed and had to keep humility! Her Friend and Father-in-Law has been her Manager for years now! She doesn’t like the term ,” Manager”, so usually calls him, “Her Biggest Supporter” and points out her, “Best Friend”, also helps out a great deal, to. That person she describes as her,” Best Friend”, is her Mother-in-Law( she just calls them, Mom and Dad! Both of them are Christian Ministers Her Husband and Her live in his Parents home! They each have a floor of their own with another floor for a practice area and recording studio ! Her Husband(Kim Hee-jun) is a Drummer and Producer( she started out in his Family Christian Music Band, POS. , which also included her Sister-in-Laws ! She discovered she had cervical cancer at twenty, just after her marriage, which left her unable to naturally bear children and also with Hepatitis due to tainted blood she had received! She is a devote Christian,ls a successful published Author of Fantasy Novels, Part time teacher of Voice and Performance at Baekseok University in Cheonan City, she also likes to design and make things( did interior design in their home ) , she plays guitar and is a genius at arrangements, she and her team arrange all her songs though she says it is a team thing and involves many( her husband is involved , and also in song selection! Sorry I get carried away talking about this woman and her Family! I particularly love her songs in Korean ( I do not speak or understand Korean, but with her you Feel the song) Can never pick just one favourite, I have at least 20 favourites! I think the song I last listened to is my Favourite! Here are two songs she wrote one about following her in never giving up on your Dreams( the song title is Dream and her nickname is Dreamer) The other is called, The Day is Sunny Kiss( about the sunny day when at 18 she met and fell in love with,”Jesus”!) vimeo.com/312061203 kzread.info/dash/bejne/i6WK25SlnbHWcZc.html&feature=share Note that on , Dream, the intro is not hers but is called, Diablo and is also featured in the movie, the Mummy, from a few years ago!

A warm welcome to Sohyang world, you just started your journey to another world. You can try Sohyang - bridge over trouble water

So Hyang is _the_ current _bona fide_ Super Star of the female singing universe, whether most people know who she is or not. She sang this while suffering from pneumonia. Her doctor said don't do it, but she did not want to disappoint her fans so she came in and leveled the building with this performance. She mostly disappeared for two years after this due to eight recurring bouts of pneumonia. The lyrics for this song are lifted almost word for word straight from the New Testament, so it isn't really a motivational song but a song of Christian faith that God will help us over every obstacle we face in life if we surrender our lives to Him and rely on Him when things get too tough for us to face alone. This is largely So Hyang's life story and certainly was the night she performed this. It was written by a man from Ireland named Brendan Graham. Josh Groban may sing this song but he didn't write it. The guy in the audience the camera kept coming back to is Shane Filan of the Irish group Westlife, who had a very big hit with this song back in the 2000s. That night's performances were in honour of him and his group's hits. He said So Hyang's was his favourite version now. Easy to see why, isn't it? You have literally just scratched the surface of her incredible catalogue of performances, all of which are live! _Bon appetite_ my friend! 😉

Using a filter over the top of her live performances is recommended to prevent Korean broadcasters from blocking. This is Sohayng's arrangement of the WestLife cover of You Raise me Up, not Josh Groban's. That is who the camera is panning to, Shane filan from Westlife. The song was written by Secret Garden.
