The song “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” performed by Mechelina Delivers is performed in an enthusiastic manner.
There is no correlation between age and talent, particularly creative capability. Performers who are sixty years old or older have the opportunity to compete on The Voice Senior among others who are the same age as them. This, at long last, draws attention to the incredible noises that they produce.
Contestants on Singing Seniors not only get the opportunity to showcase their talents and perform in front of an audience of people from all over the globe, but they also have the chance to receive personalized vocal instruction from renowned judges as they progress through the program and compete against one another to be crowned the winner.
On “The Voice Senior,” we have seen some genuine competitors who have put a great number of industry professionals to disgrace. And in contrast to many younger singers, these elder ones don’t employ “auto-tune” to “fix” their sounds when they aren’t talented enough to do it naturally. What you hear on “The Voice Senior” is pure and unadulterated vocal skill.
Mechelina, who is 63 years old, is not an exception. When Mechelina went onto the platform of ‘The Voice,’ the majority of younger people would have assumed that she was only a “ordinary” grandma or great-grandmother. She is a grandma and a great-grandmother, but in addition to that, she has a strength that is common among grandmothers: a strong voice.
In the footage that can be seen below, Mechelina is seen standing on stage before the music begins. It’s possible that she is a bit anxious, but who wouldn’t be? She takes a few long breaths, shuts her eyes, and then begins to sing a well-known song by Etta James. The audience and the judges are immediately captivated by her performance.
The song “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” has been covered and sampled by a great number of contemporary bands, but never in this manner. Rich and dazzling, Mechelina’s voice caresses the lyrics with a sound reminiscent of the sixties, creating an atmosphere that envelops the audience and leads them on an emotional journey:
“Let me tell you now that I have never felt like this before. “Something has me by the neck and won’t let go…” “Let me tell you now that I have never felt like this before.” The song “Something’s Got a Hold on Me” was written by Etta James, Leroy Kirkland, and Pearl Woods. It also has elements of blues and gospel music. In the past, James has been quoted as saying, “That song was written by us, and it was based on a church song.” The title of the hymn that referred to God was “Something’s Got a Hold on Me, It Must Be the Lord.” The song was an instant success, climbing all the way to the top of the Hot R&B Sides list, where it peaked at number four. On the Billboard Hot 100, the song peaked at position number 37 for its duration.
Therefore, when Mechelina stepped on the stage of “The Voice” Senior, she had a lot of expectations to live up to. This was particularly true considering that her song choice, together with the fact that people were familiar with Etta Jame’s gospel and blues voice, made it simple for people to compare her to Etta. We believe Mechelina did a terrific job, and we hope that she will return to the competition in the near future to give it another go even if the judges don’t share our opinion. We have a strong desire to hear more of her stunning voice.
