“In The Air Tonight” was an instant international hit and remains an ever-beloved song.
The English drummer and singer-songwriter Phill Collins released it as the lead single for his 1981 debut solo album Face Value. The song remains a popular selection on classic rock stations and several famous artists have already covered it including Lorde, Chris Daughtry, David Garrett, The Twilight Orchestra, and many more.
Still, artists like Sierra Eagleson have posted their own awesome takes of the song online.
For those who don’t know, Sierra is musician Chase Eagleson’s sister.
He started publishing his music in 2013 and now has quite a fanbase. His sister decided to follow in his footsteps, and she’s doing an awesome job so far. Her talent is undeniable! This performance left us at a loss for words. Her voice is smooth, pure, and blends perfectly with the tone of the song, leaving you feeling warm and comfortable.
What Sierra did is incredible.
She took a song that’s been public for decades and somehow made it her own. Her singing is distinctly independent of the music and would be fantastic to listen to by itself. The piano is simple, Sierra did an intensely vocal, feeling-driven performance.
There is so much soul and depth of feeling in this video.
We were left speechless and could hear that Sierra feels every note she sings.
She is in her world during this incredible performance. With headset and piano in front of her, she seems to be completely smitten and we would love to take a glimpse of those magic lands she wanders through when she sings. She certainly seems lost in another dimension, and we are only getting this beautiful music from over there. To be fair, that’s more than enough to leave us happy.
In a world with less and less feeling every day, Sierra is a profound emotional presence.
This stunning artist sticks out like a flaming red contrast.
The young lady made her voice an instrument of its own and it gave life to this song. A lot of people sing only words, but Sierra sang with emotion, feeling, and love. It’s a rare feat that makes this cover completely enchanting.
The original version is known for its use of the gated reverb drum sound.
Many musicians called the drum fill “the best,” but Sierra opted for a different approach. There aren’t drums in this song, but it’s easy to see that Sierra’s strong and haunting vocal is more than enough to compensate for everything you might assume will lack here. She decided to give it a go by just playing piano and it turned out perfectly. She kept the original tone but made adjustments that suited her best, and we have to respect the effort she put into reinventing the song.
In all, Sierra’s YouTube channel has 53,900 subscribers.
The cover was published on her YouTube channel, but the song is also streaming on Spotify, iTunes, and Google Play.
With almost a million views, she’s paving a path towards stardom! The girl deserves to be heard worldwide, and we hope it will happen soon because she blew this performance out of the water. Phil Collins fans will be amazed! The girl has a soothing voice, we would gladly bottle it if it was possible. Sierra Eagleson will make a name for herself and we hope she’ll get the fame she deserves.
