Noemie Lorzema and The Green Mile

Today I have music for you that is breathtakingly beautiful and heart wrenchingly emotional. This song is a performance given by the singer Noemie Lorzema, a contestant on La Voix. This song is one that has the ability to stop you in your tracks, and just listen. The way Noemie Lorzema sings this song is painfully moving and drenched in emotion and feeling. She makes you feel this song in its entirety. Each note and word is full of power and strength of emotion, leaving you with chills. This song was originally performed and sung by Christina Aguilera, which generally means there are a lot of soaring and strong notes complimented by softer and more vulnerable notes. Hearing Noemie Lorzema pick up the stylistically Christina Aguilera song, and turn it into something completely different and equally as beautiful is absolutely incredible. Noemie Lorzema makes this song her own, singing the song with her own riffs, falsettos, and vulnerabilities. Even listening to the way this is sung compared to the original is incredible because you can clearly hear what kind of emotion is being poured into this song. Noemie Lorzema leaves it all on stage and bears her vulnerabilities and pain to the audience. We are privileged to hear what that reflects, to be able to understand what she feels. If I am to be quite honest, this is a tough song to write about because of how powerfully moving it is. When you are listening, it is impossible to pay attention to anything else. The song enchants you and captivates you in a way that makes everything else fall away. Noemie Lorzema captures our attention from the moment she begins singing, and we cannot help but want to hear the song through to the end, and then over again. I appreciate the way Noemie Lorzema takes this song and makes it something that is personally moving. The way she breaks and cracks her voice, yet maintains so much power is something that is both beautiful and heart-breaking. The way she uses her voice to mold the son ginto something that is endearing and soulful is also incredible. Each riff is stylistically hers and each the song as a whole, is clearly a personal one. But the way the riffs are performed is to die for. Noemie Lorzema makes each riff her own and even the way and when she decides to see vibrato in her voice is unique. Thi song is one that I cannot find the proper words to describe. There is so much melancholy beauty and even a bit of hopefulness. But what we all feel is that strong pull towards the emotional side of your life and persona. That is the power of this song, the power to make the audience feel just as much as you the singer. Today's instrumental song is from the movie The Green Mile. The premise of this movie and concept is one that is very eye opening and a bit moving as well. Which explains why the score is as beautiful as it is. This piece alone tells a story of hope and possibility. There is sadness and darkness, but also brighter and happier sounds to this. While the piece is sad, there is still that component of being uplifting and soulful. That is the beauty of these soundtracks and movies scores. With lyrics, we can still understand the story trying to be told and get a sense of inspiraiton and hope. I hope you enjoy the music and please feel free to comment!
