Adrienne West took to Holland's stage to perform. She was in The Voice category of The Voice Senior, Holland's Season Four. She sang in a way a YouTuber would happily comment and commend as effortless.
Born in Brooklyn, NY, she sang Nina Simone's "Feeling Good" for her performance. The song has been covered by Sammy Davis, Michael Buble, John Legend, Avicii, Sophie B. Hawkins, and several others.
Adrienne West started with a calm voice, and when the drums began, the host said she felt "goosebumps everywhere." Coach Jam Smit first turned his chair for her while others enjoyed her music.
While she performed, she sang like it was her song. One of the YouTubers noted that he felt her soul in the music, and it was spectacular. The performance, which now has hundreds of viewers, has joined one of the best covers of Nina Simone's songs.
"Feeling Good" itself was performed when Nina Simone felt she owned herself, and sensed every bit of freedom her body brought. To her, it was a song of liberty and re-dedication to her soul.
When Adrienne West was about to close her performance, the thin stretch of her voice was soothing. The high pitch she gave the closure got the audience on their feet while the judges still gestured to the music.
Another YouTuber noted that the season would be tricky as there is a lot of talent. What has attracted many listeners is the ease with which she sang the song. The song was both powerful and gentle, and she rendered it impeccably.
