Lucy Thomas mesmerizes with her stunning cover of ‘Someone to Watch Over Me.’ The 21-year-old sings with a dazzling cadence that’s amazing to hear. Watch the clip to hear the beautiful cover. 

The 1926 song is a timeless classic that was written by George and Ira Gershwin for the musical “Oh, Kay!” It’s a short, sweet song that gets straight to the point. The singer wants someone to protect her and guide her and feels impatient in her longing—a message that many women can relate to. 

Some of the lyrics are:

‘There's a somebody I'm longing to see:
I hope that he
Turns out to be
Someone who'll watch over me’

In the film ‘Oh, Kay!,’ Gertrude Lawrence’s character, dressed in a maid’s uniform, sings ‘Someone to Watch Over Me’ to a rag doll she holds, which emphasizes her loneliness. It’s an emotional song that makes you feel a surge of bittersweet emotions, especially when sung by the artistic prodigy Lucy Thomas.

In the video Lucy posted on YouTube, the young singer radiates elegance with a simple necklace, gown, and black elbow-length gloves. It’s obvious to see that she is very skilled. She sings with long and slow vibratos, holding notes for several seconds before moving on to the next part of the music piece. Her representation of ‘Someone to Watch Over Me’ honors its nearly 100-year-old legacy. 

For those who haven’t met their soulmate or perhaps even lost them, just know that God is watching over you. He loves you and wants you to put your trust in him. He works in ways that are often unknown to us, but he is certainly working. 

“The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.” Psalms 18:2
