You Raise Me Up - Jeff Stacey karaoke performance in the style of Josh Groban

This karaoke performance of "You Raise Me Up" was sung by Jeff Stacey on the Royal Caribbean cruise ship "Quantum Of The Seas" in December of 2025. The song, originally performed by Secret Garden, is best known as a 2003 hit for Josh Groban. Jeff's outstanding karaoke version of the song features an excellent vocal performance, but is also noteworthy for Jeff's professional stage presence. Unlike most karaoke singers, Jeff actually had the lyrics memorized and did not need to stand in front of a video monitor to know the words. This freed him up to roam around the entire stage and engage with the crowd. Watching his confidence on stage, it is easy to see that earlier in his life, Jeff was a professional singer and performer. But this particular performance was just for fun, during a cruise vacation to the Mexican Riviera. The reaction of the crowd at the conclusion of the performance tells you everything you need to know about how Jeff's performance compared to the performances before and after by other karaoke singers. This was not a competition, but if it had been, Jeff would almost certainly have won it.
