Hi Lucy -- how much time do you spend each day or week rehearsing? How many times do you have to rehearse a song before you record it?
Yes Lady Lucy. You would make a wonderful country music singer and writer. It’s all about the story with country music.❤️❤️
Do you have any more songs like( At Last ) I real loved Your rendition of Ms James music.
Lucy, you truly are a gift from God.
If you make it to Nashville . Find Steve wariner he is an awesome ballad song writer ❤️ Check out his song "A Thousand Winds that blow " its a song about loss of a loved one . You would sing it beautifully
A question I would like to ask you Lucy is there anywhere else you would like to live or do you love where you are and being close to all of your family.
Hi Lucy, I love your music. You have the ability to convey the emotion of each song not just sing the words. I think that sets you apart from most entertainers. So my question is, why have you not put out any DVDs. I love watching your YouTube videos but would love to have you in my DVD collection. I have purchased all of your CDs but watching you sing brings out the true emotion of your songs. Thanks
Lucy Thomas, you have two concerts in France in a month, and in Switzerland is there also a possibility to watch those concerts via livestream. Greetings from Agostino Zanin from the Netherlands.
When are we getting married lucy thomas.
Lucy, I am so excited to hear that we are going to get a live performance of you singing The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face accompanied by James. This is such a wonderful song and your take on it is absolutely sensational. I have seen a number of your live performances of this song and all are outstanding. Many of us think that one performance in particular is arguably the greatest live performance of any song ever recorded. Now that’s a huge statement, but the fact that many people hold this view is enough evidence to confirm that you and this song were made for each other. Thank you in advance Lucy and thank you Roberta Flack and Ewan MacColl, a fellow Lancastrian, for creating and making famous, this beautiful song.
Hi Christopher I 100% agree with you on this , I also think Lucy's live version of this adds something special over the original , what that something is I don't know how to describe apart from it's not just a song but feels real . Really looking forward to this new offering with James .
Hello my dear Lucy, ❤️ Thank you so much for always responding to your fans with such kindness and sincerity, and, of course, with your beautiful smile. I can’t wait to hear you sing “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” with Mr. James, your incredibly talented pianist. I love your songs so much, and I truly enjoy listening to your beautiful voice. Wishing you all the very best, Lucy. ❤️🥰
Lucy your Nana would know this one it's called Something Else and when Eddie Cochran sings about the girl of his dreams he say She's Something Else. I imagine young fella's would say that about you. Have a listen he was my teenie bopper favourite you can catch it on YouTube
Hi Lucy, have you thought of singing your Sound of Music medley on Patreon? Most of us have never heard this, as I understand you sung this in Japan . Just a thought.
Have you ever heard of Jim Reeves? I ask this because he was very popular in England in the 60’s having a number of songs reach the top 10 at that time. I bet your grandparents maybe would have remembered him. He had a very warm voice and was one of the first country music singers that used violins for his background music. Like you he sang mainly ballads. One In particular was “Is it really over”. If you get a chance I think you would really appreciate his voice if you give him a listen.
Dear Lucy, I imagine that during some sessions with James, and with your band, you enter into a music "JAM," singing all kinds of music, and some from different genres, having a "WOW" of a time. Would I be correct?
Wow, thank you, Lucy, for that lovely moment of sharing. You’re so lovely, and we’re all so proud of you. It’s a joy and a real privilege to have someone like you. And as a singer, I can’t remember a single time when I didn’t think, at the end, that it was perfect. Every single time, even when I didn’t know the song, I’m completely blown away.
Another amazing cover that would be a real twist may be Marc Cohn Walking in Memphis …… with Martha Lucy overdubbed gospel backing & James on keys & organ 🇬🇧👏🏻🙏🏻🎤🎶🎵
Yes I really enjoyed this. You have such a great outlook on life. I loved all your answers. Not so sure that I want you to go on safari though. I don’t want to see you running away from an angry elephant. I remember you saying that you were a pretty good runner so maybe I don’t have to worry. I would love to see you come to Nashville though and start your song writing as long as you took time to do a couple of concerts.
Lucy I was wondering how do go about choosing a song to cover?❤️
Hello Lucy , just a question please ? I assume in your early days you sang amongst a choir ? Do you ever contemplate doing a gospel or bluesy track with a choir ? I think your natural soaring vocal backed with a choir would be wonderful ? 🙏🏻🇬🇧🎵🎶🎤
David Lucy has done a song with a choir its called Dear Lord and it's on the Rosie Album and also on the rosiethemusical channel on YouTube it's absolutely amazing.
As always Lucy thank you for this lovely video 🙏🏻🇬🇧 First of all , you look so cool & relaxed in the beautiful sunshine as well as a stunning backdrop ( I’m assuming mum. & dad’s garden ? ) and gorgeous laid back vibe 👏🏻💙 to a large audience of supporters , the fact musicians & performers are reticent to hear themselves played back , may seem odd ? But i to think it comes from an ingrained desire to give music or songs reverence and strive for excellence to honour the composers & lyricists imaginations the kudos they deserve. It was heart warming that you allow moments of self praise when a track pleases you ! And getting that undeniable fizz when a rendition is beautiful , is lovely !👏🏻 i also think as a performer we all strive for the impossible perfection , and the British attitude of underplaying your own brilliance comes out when you worry about appearing big headed ? Never underplay your talent Lucy , accolades of your abilities and the sense of joy & pleasure you bring us is genuine. 👏🏻🙏🏻🇬🇧💙🎤🎶🎵 Thank you , Keep up the hard work as always 🙏🏻
Thank you again for giving us a look into your life by answering questions. It's good that you are having fun with this as well as performing.it's never a bad thing to be proud of yourself every so often.You can do that quite a bit.i have said it before but it is the best way to end my work week by logging in and watching a performance,one of your trips,answering questions or anything you post.thanks again. We do appreciate it.
Hi again Lucy.I just love to listen to you and also Martha @ the age of 85 and having lost my beloved wife after over 60 years married I find so much comfort each and every day liste
Thank you so much, Lucy. I just love these sessions with you. You are so forthcoming and genuine with us, so relatable and "normal" 😄! I think you would be so much fun to just spend time with. I love your laughter! When you really did let go and laugh here, it just sent my heart flying! Does that sound silly? I mean, it is so contagious, I can't help but laugh, too. You are such a delight, Lucy, and I love how you are using your Patreon to bring us into your life.
One of the things that impresses me about you, Lucy, is your positive attitude and your willingness to share with us a look into your world and share yourself with your fans in the way you do. I love how you're open to so many questions which, in my opinion, shows us what an incredible and genuine person you really are and how much you care about your fans. This is a rare quality that I have rarely seen in my lifetime, if ever. It's a connection that I believe we all enjoy about you. Thank you so much for all you do for us! Keep up the amazing work you do!!!
We all have watch your YouTube videos. Many of us have seen you live . Your fans need to know. … Can Lucy “cut a rug?” Every time I watch “dreams” on YouTube, you look like you are going to break out and do a move . Not sure if our girl has any moves.? How about it princess.??? Break out of your box and show us what you got.
Didn't you see her do the number "Masie" in her production of "Rosie-The Musical"? Bee-you-ti-ful! Such style, and so smoooth! 💖
I wonder, who or what are you measuring yourself by when you listen to your own music, to give yourself such a mediocre grade? Maybe more original music would help with that and improve the grade. Just curious what you may have thought of your "Don't Walk Away" and "Starlight" pop version performances since they are originals? To me, they are phenomenal and should be all over the airwaves.
Another enjoyable conversation with Lucy! It's as if we are sitting across from you with a refreshment and asking you live! Thank you so much for sharing! --mike & lorie
Another brilliant question and answer session 🙂 Just to touch on your Nashville dream, I meet many singer songwriters from there and the best part is they come over here to a lovely bar in Atherton. I've just been there tonight to see one, Shelley Fairchild, along with a home grown one from Burscough, Jake O'Neill, who was on The Voice a few years back. Gary Quinn organises an acoustic chill once a month on a Sunday there, Gary has written many songs and co-written with Brett James, who wrote Jesus Take The Wheel. He would be a very good contact for you. Google Carmen Bar & Eatery if you want to find out more. Maggie Baugh has recently played there, she was Keith Urban's utility player.
Lucy, thank you for all your delightful and interesting answers and insights. I hope you’ll find the time to make all three of your wishes come true. ❤️
Lucy: thank you for answering more questions. It is always great to hear your voice and your thoughts. Any chance you will return to Cameo.com? I really enjoyed those. See you in Geneva/Annecy.
Your response to the inquiries you have received are genuine and sincere. I truly appreciate your honesty. You are such a lovely person, Lucy. We as fans are blessed to experience your presence. How do you pick the song you’re going to cover?
When will you be posting another duet with Martha?
Lucy, it was such a complete pleasure watching you answered funny and naturally (just being yourself) to all creative question from your supporters. I really love your answers of how you reacted to other reactors to your “cover”video!!!❤️
Dear Lucy You have the most beautiful way of singing and the most wonderful voice. You have so much potential. How is it that you almost only sing cover songs ? Can it really be true that there is no songwriter or composer who will make songs for you ? You do make the most beautiful cover songs, your version is always more beautiful, better than the previous one. But when you sing a cover song with a slightly high tempo, it seems as if it is dragged down in tempo, why? It could be exciting to hear a song from you at a higher tempo ? You did a beautiful version of "starlight" with "Starlight - pop version", but it would be exciting to hear a song from you with a faster tempo than the ones you have sung so far. Have you thought about choosing which music style suits you best and which one you want to make a career with or will you continue to only make covers of musician's successes? I think no matter what genre you choose, you will shine as the best singer of our time. Best wishes for your future
Lucy,your performance of Broken Dreams,was one of the most impressive ,and emotional performances I’ve ever experienced!Not just for a first time actor! But also for any seasoned professional stage performer !
Fantastic job answering the questions honestly and with class! Love to see this off stage/video side of you! Please come to the US soon!!!!
I find it both amusing and endearing that don't see yourself as your fans see you. I have never once listened to one of your performances and thought that "she could have done it better". I have never met you and obviously do not know what your day to day live is like. I am sure that there are times in rehearsals that you mess up. But the final product always sounds perfect to me. Different voices resonate differently to different people. But of all the female vocalists that I have ever heard, your voice resonates the best with my brain. I guess that is why I listen to you every day. I selfishly want you to never stop singing. I pray that you stay healthy and happy. 🎅❤️
What a perfect ending of this weekend seeing your new Q&A. Thank you.
Ohh Lucy, I can’t wait to hear you sing “The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face” again! 🥹❤️ It was so beautiful hearing you sing it on the livestream! And I loved all your answers in this video too 🥰
Lucy; I am curious about how you were regarded by you grade school and high school classmates as your singing career continued to blossom. Did your rising fame cause you any problems with your school mates? Ditto for Martha. God Bless
Very pleased to hear about Nashville, because I think you are a natural for a crossover country hit song (also if there visit the amazing total recreation of the Parthenon in Athens - it is a perfect copy, including the huge statue of Athena and even the direction of sunlight has been matched - it's in a large park near downtown Nashville. As for Africa, take every precaution regarding malaria - I've had two friends catch it there and once you have it, it can come back again and again, though they have been working on a vaccine - don't know how far along that is. It is an absolute delight to see and hear you answer the really astute and interesting questions your fans ask. Keep it up! Jim.
Another great job Lucy. I did have one question come to mind. When you and Martha are singing duets together, do you, as the more experienced singer, usually take the lead in the song or do you both just generally, feed off of each other?
Hi Lucy, I cannot wait for your upcoming Patreon release of "First Time Ever I Saw Your Face!" When I first heard it here from the Christmas Palm House show, I was absolutely floored. It was a Mic Drop performance and I commented as such at the time. I heard you perform a lot of amazing covers, but this was special and I really think you should release it to the public and keep performing at concerts.
Thank you so much for letting us in to your world. Love your honesty and giggle when you answer. Shows your humility. Absolutely delightful. We all think you sing everything perfectly. Keep this going, we love it.
Lucy, from what you have kindly shared on Patreon you live in a beautiful house and tranquil surroundings - they say your home reflects who you are and your personality, if asked how would you describe your home to someone new.
Thank you Lucy for taking the time to share with us . You are such a delightful shining star both in music but also the person you are. Your music, smile and laughter reaches out into the world warming our hearts. I too will be lifting you, and your team, in thots and prayers as you prepare and perform your upcoming concerts. I know they will be great!!! I am jealous for those of you who get to go 😂 for I know it will be a blast. Hope ya all post on you tube. You are doing great Lucy.......... Again thank you for sharing your music and yourself with us.
What type of visa does Lucy need to perform in the USA? Thanks for the info-I hope to see Lucy in the near future!
She needs to apply for a temporary work Visa. However, the qualifications for her type of work (solo music entertainer) are extremely difficult to meet and Lucy does not meet them yet. The qualifications, for whatever strange reason, are really unfair for solo music entertainers.
Dear Lucy. I am a birdwatchers amongst other things and your answers on the video had multiple birds singing their heads off in the background. Did you notice?
Lucy the rap music fan! Maybe in her next video she'll have 5 gold chains around her neck and a a diamond grill. Hopefully not. Keep it classy as always Lucy!
Lucy, It may seem strange to say, but I enjoy just listening to your voice even when your not singing and along with your smile and laughter it brightens my day! ❤️
Nashville hey Lucy...I really do not think you could go wrong writing with the writers there...and once a good Country song has been written....get your jeans and cowboy boots and frilly top on...take your guitar ( that you can now play really well )and give it a whirl in the Bluebird...Smiling just thinking about it....I'm a big Taylor fan...didn't do her any harm: ) Thanks for the Q&A ❤️
I have a recording of you singing "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" from your first Palm House concert on May 1st 2025, honestly the last time I listened to it was yesterday evening! (please note I have not, nor will I share that recording!). As for rap, the current artist I listen to the second most (after yourself of course!) Is REN who some class as a rapper but he's so much more than that!
Thanks again Lucy this is so insightful to your world and how you are embracing all thats put in your path. We hope you achieve your bucket list sooner rather than later..warm wishes Jay and Julie ❤️ x
Lucy, you are so funny and I love all your answers! Been to Kenya for two weeks and Tanzania for 10 days. A safari is a must do on your bucket list!! I used to run long distance in high school. Yes I was skinny once! I used to listen to certain Tom Jones songs when I ran. Had just the right beat! As much as I dislike RAP, I can understand it being used to run on the treadmill. As far as listening to yourself, there are lots of us out here that can vouch for the fact you are doing a fantastic job! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Lucy,as regards to going to South Africa on Safari,please find the time to do it,i have a couple of friends who went earlier in the year & loved it!,haven't as yet been,as all my spare money goes on going to Auckland every year around Christmas time to see my daughter & two of my Granddaughters!😀 As to the question asked of you as regards to a certain song you are particularly happy with,if I thought about it I would probably go for "Evergreen", for one I was particularly impressed as to the way you delivered it especially as this style of music isn't something I would normally listen too,(until you came along!😃) & for another it is the best version I have ever come across!. You also mention again taking up playing the piano & guitar,it would be great if you could as this would obviously be of great benefit to you as too getting into songwriting,something I know you would like to do!,my question is involved with this,are you still working with the two songwriters that I think you took up with?,& where do you think your strengths may be as to the style of music you may get involved in writing?,Thank you Lucy,Ad Astra!.🌟😃
Thank you. Your spontaneous laughter warms the heart.
I once heard an amazing singer. Her name is Lucy Thomas and once I heard her I was hooked for life. Thank you to you and your sister to bring us such joy.
Such a fun interview. I loved it. I was scared that as your career took off and you got older , i might see less of the adorable and fun little Lucy of the beginning but youre still there alive and kicking , being so friendly fun and cool. And the way youre just being yourself with all of us and sharing it all makes me so happy
Hi Lucy. I just love your answers, but the one thing that strikes me is your your beautiful personality, honesty and of course, your smile. Love to you and your family.
Love hearing you answer people’s questions ❤️❤️
I can see you enjoying Rap since many people enjoy Rap. But there is a new thing now: Have you heard Angine DePortrine? They are the duo that I think drives musicians nuts more than anyone else, yet we can't stop listening to them. They don't sing; in fact, they dont really talk, so no worries about ever having to sing anything there. I'm trying to imagine your reaction while listening to them. Once again, great video and great questions. If you need something to do between your two upcoming concerts, bring yourself and your entourage to Interlaken in Switzerland, where you might find me trying to catch my breath on some mountain top. 🙂
I wonder if we can get Lucy into extremely heavy metal?...🤘😂
Thank you so much for answering my question and giving us some more insight into how you express yourself through singing. Listening to how well you perform songs, I think it's clear that you are a perfectionist. They sound absolutely perfect to me. Also, you should be happy to be proud of yourself. Many of us say that you are the best singer that we have ever heard.
"Many of us say that you are the best singer that we have ever heard." 100%
I just love seeing Lucy with her happy smile and beautiful giggle !!💕💕😍 Please put "The First Time " on You Tube as the world needs to hear your version of it. I know that it will bring tears to my eyes but I will be looking forward to that ! Thanks Lucy 💕
So many she still needs to release on YouTube and record for future albums; Jesus Takes The Wheel, Songbird, Think Twice, Purple Rain, River etc... all of which she has performed brilliantly in live performances.
Hey Lucy! I’m wondering where you put the figurine I gave you in Liverpool? You said you knew right where it should go. Did it end up there?
Lucy, please come to Florida.
Thankyou so much Lucy , I really love these Sunday afternoons and the way you answer the questions in your own delightful way. You should definitely feel proud of yourself for your achievements . I can't wait to hear you singing First Time Ever I Saw Your Face with James I absolutely love that song and look forward to seeing you in Geneva hopefully you will sing that there . ❤️
This may sound silly, but I really feel honored even though your answer was better than my question. Thanks!
Lucy, another fantastic job answering questions from your fans. I really enjoy seeing you relaxed and having fun whilst answering these questions. I love seeing your smile, being happy, and your laugh; it just touches my heart. Take care, my dear Lucy. 🌹💙❤️
Ditto!!!!
Thank you so much for letting us into your life. What stands out most to me is how honest and forthright you are. Lucy even though I believe you are one of the best singers ever, I believe you are an even better person. You really care for people and us your fans. Thank you so so much. You are really special.
It's a trait of English folk born and bred in Lancashire. No tall poppies in that county
Very thoughtful answers to some great questions here Lucy, thanks for answering mine. 😊 You absolutely smashed it during your Rosie performance so should be so proud of yourself for overcoming any doubts you may have had in the lead up to it. x
Hi Lucy! I would love for you to sing more country music ❤️
Yeah her version of Jesus Takes The Wheel is amazing! 🤩
Lucy, thank you for another absolutely delightful session in your beautiful garden. You’re so down to earth and relatable, and it’s a joy to have you engage with us all this way. Please keep it up! Every installment is a gem! —Jon
Thank you, Lucy, for answering some very interesting questions. You should be impressed with yourself. You are an amazing, hard-working person, and you deserve all the success that is coming your way.
Lovely to hear your feedback once again, your honesty is quite refreshing 💕💕💕
Hello Lucy, I hope you are well and everything is falling into place for the concert’s coming up. I’m praying that everything goes smoothly for you! Are you planning to release a new album anytime soon? Love from Neil in Australia.🇦🇺🩷
Thank you ♥️appreciate you for the time you take to spend with us fans! 😊
LUCY do you and your team have any idea of a time line for doing a concert in the USA
The USA won't yet give her the type of visa that allows her to perform and charge a fee for doing so. All you US based fans contact your government representatives and tell them to let Lucy play!
Yayyy another Lucy ask ♥️♥️
