Halle Bailey emphasized an informal yet at the same time a very powerful musical encounter by posting a video of him and his friends making a lovely vocal arrangement of a soul song. The actress from ‘The Little Mermaid’ called the event a ‘singing date with some of my favs,’ and the showing of raw vocal talent easily captivated her followers. The video exposes the kind of talent that has been a signature of Bailey’s career which is so spontaneous thus it garners a lot of admiration and at the same time, the audience has some humorous critiques.

The video conveys a very intimate atmosphere all throughout. The ‘Little Mermaid’ star and her companions are really comfortable and laid back on the sofa as they are listening to the music encompassing them. The words of the songs give a clue to the theme that is spiritual and uplifting—’Angels make always so new,’ ‘God sent your nature,’ ‘your halo’—creating almost a divine atmosphere. It is the kind of unplugged and genuine moment that is rare, just a gathering of voices blending in the most delightful manner. This was no rehearsed performance; the performers were simply sharing their gift for the happiness of everyone and it was a very true situation.
The audience’s responses to the post were mostly positive, with most expressing how deeply moved they were by the vocal performance. One declared it was their ‘favourite song’ and that the group ‘just killed it’ along with a flood of heart-eye emojis. The emotional impact was a dominant theme and someone else commented, ‘Oh my, such perfect. Gave me goosebumps.’ The intensity of the singing was such that one viewer felt completely enchanted saying, ‘You have no idea the power of dulcet vocal’s hold on me… I am being held in bondage by a siren’s voice. Never stop singing.’ This sentiment is in line with the general opinion that Bailey’s casting as Ariel was a perfect match for her fairy-like vocal quality.
On the other hand, not all comments were about the singing. The casual atmosphere inspired some very comical yet practical observations. One person in the audience focused on some domestic detail and commented, ‘Why yall wearing yalls outside shoes in the house? On the furniture.’ Such comments show the funny and sometimes nitpicking nature of audience interaction, where even an angelic voice cannot prevent noticing shoes on the couch. Another commenter made a less flattering comparison of the singing to food, saying, ‘Girl this is like cooking without seasoning,’ meaning that the performance was, while lovely, perhaps a bit of a bland version without the heat or spice that they were looking for.
Besides the accolades, there was a constant request that was basically a call for more. ‘Give us more of this please,’ one person entreated, while another asserted, ‘Idc I need this as a full version.’ It was pretty clear that the short video was definitely not enough for the audience who were longing for a complete recording of the beautiful harmony that was left behind. The clip also reminded the viewers of Halle Bailey’s own music, as one said, ‘This just reminded me I need to check out your album.’

The session even took on a comical aspect when it came to the expressing and just listening experience. One viewer joked, ‘I will k!ll every mutual just to be in the room,’ indicating the high ranking of being at the performance. Another said, ‘God knows, if I can sing this way, nobody is having any quiet,’ which is probably a common feeling among those who dare to sing aloud.
