  • ah, i wish the sound was better on this recording. That was a great performance. I had it on my PVR for ages, it was a faultless performance. She is a great pereformer.

  • just a little crazy

  • She didn't do THAT bad of a job, guys. Actually, she did a rather GOOD job.

  • no offense but this REALLY sucked....Regina is waaaaaay to goood of a singer for this girl. this song really doesnt suit her.. sorry just my opinion..

  • kinda looks like katy perry

  • She should've won.

  • I strongly dislike ur cover of the song you slaughtered it. The cutesy walk u were trying to do did not work with the song.- kahlia

  • jesus i got goosebumps listening to her murdering the song.

  • @eeevilgem stop hating you suck anyways

  • I expected way better for that to be in the semi finals of American idol...

  • @eeevilgem It's Australian Idol...

  • I thought this performance was better then Regina Spektor's, she showed alot more feeling in this song then I get from Reginas version.

  • omg is this really semi-finals???

  • Comment removed

  • Horrible

  • i met Breanna and she is so extreamly talented im buying her album!! go girl reach for the stars!!

  • Got cut off writing my last critique, Brianna, you really a no talent piece of crap! I mean the stupid high voice and that crappy little dance(my daughter does it at home just to torture me), and what is it with that outfit, makeup and hairdo! She looks like a member of the Adams Family! Bloody Hell. Do yourself a favor Brianna, I wouldnt use that "performance" as audition piece in future - in fact , you know what - choose another profession!

  • Um.. Hi jealousofu.. If you have kids then maybe you should get off the net and spend some time with them rather than keep returning to this page.. You sound jaded. Is Brianna an ex-friend of yours or something? Maybe she bullied you at school? Typical for people to continual bag out and hide behind online names. The way you talk about someone you don't even know, using names like "bitch" makes me wonder what kind of a mother you are. I hope your daughter doesn't read the things you post online.

  • For your information sarase7en, (what kind of a name is that anyway) I am not a mother. Why dont you stick to commenting on my critique of Brianna Carpenter and her "talent", rather than imposing your thoughts on my parenting skills. For your information, my kids had a good old chuckle @ some of the facts I wrote about that Fidelity crap. I dont even know you and already you sound like a pain in the ass to me. I have the right to my opinion and it stands, Brianna sux! lol

  • soz bout my dad, i wont let im use my account again. :)

  • @jealousofu's dad, id like to see you get on the stage and sing and dance. i know everyone has a right to their own opinion but when its public and the person you are trashing can see it, then thats crule and horrid, and FYI she has an album and i bought it because i think she has talent, the fidelity song may have been the wrong song for her to sing nut she is talented and i think your jealous!! sorry jealousofu to message your dad through you!

  • @jealousofu well you'd swear Brianna had murdered a baby with an axe! What a sorry character you are to be so hateful to a young woman whose musical talent isabout much more than this clip. I know Brianna and unlike yourself she is a positive, happy and truely beautiful human being. I would hate to see how you treat peple you actually know or maybe you are just full of crap when you're anonymous. We need more people like Brianna in the world and less like you.

  • My kids keep making me watch this bullshit and I m even more convinced this bitch put forward what I can only describe as excrement. In the same vain as Monty Python's "Big Nose",

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE her! She had such guts to sing a quirky song like this! She's sooooo awesome...

  • U hav got 2b kidding! She can go suck a fart out of my asshole. That was the biggest load of shit I hav eva seen in my life, and it sounded like someone torturing a cat! Someone should put that cat/bitch out of her misery. Where is a shotty when I need one - bring back Kyle I say, PLEASE...

  • her audition was really good dont no bout the live but all i can say is although people may not like this performance... it is really memorable

  • I love her, her style is perfect

  • She was so good in her audiotion too, with the original song and all that.

    she never really lived up to that potential on the live shows though.

  • LOL. This is hilarious.

  • i think she sound awsome doin that song, job well done, once again

  • HOLY SHIT

    She sucks so much

    OI VEY

  • <3 it! i personally like it beta then regina spektor, but i still love her virson :)

  • I went for her. Only because she went to my school. She came to our fete last year.

  • what. the. fuck. she is MURDERING that song *cries*

  • thank you!!! :) at least sum1 agrees wit me

  • i love this song! for people whos dissing it have serious problem!

  • this was the weirdest thing idol has ever seen.

  • LMAO that is so gay.

    Seriously, she's an ok singer but that song? LOL XD

  • LMAO what the fuck is that?

  • i hope regina spektor fans dont get angry, cos i do love regina and this song, but personally i love brianna's performance alot better

  • i like this version!

    shes my favourites idol, followed closely by Matt Corby =)

  • best song she sang out of all three of them but she rocks!

  • yeh she was bad... i guess.

    but this was the best song, out of all the songs she sung lol.xxx

  • her voice is way to high, sounds kind of bad

  • Haha. I was thinking how she was very much sounding like Regina Spektor when I heard her sing her Jacqueline song.

  • oh..my..god

    there is NOOO way this is better than Regina Spektor's

  • Shit! Regina Spektor Is WAY Better.. and i duno how u cant see tht. lol she trys to hard.

  • Totally agree with MagritaClaire.

  • shes excel.

  • It's not 'bad' weird!

    It's just different.

    I thought she was fantastic!!

  • she is so wierd in a good way

    its a pitty shes gone :(

    DAMN!!

  • I loved Brianna up until this point. I was a bit disappointed with her cover of this song.

    Fidelity is one of my favourite songs and although I loved Brianna on the show more than any other contestant, she didn't do it justice.

    But I am glad that didn't cost her because she is an amazing singer and a really star.

    If and when she releases a CD (if she hasn't already) I'll buy it.

    Most definately.

  • I really love Brianna Carpenter.

    She had one of the most unique voices from this year.

    Even though you didnt make it all the way Brianna, WE STILL LOVE YOU!!!

  • What! I bet ud luv a convicted murderer wouldn't u?I know why she didn't make it all the way, its becoz she couldn't sing the nat off a water bufflo ass. What a load of SHIT!!! Open your bloody eyes and ears and see this crap for what it is....

  • Brianna is a great singer. I love that version of the song.

  • this is such a good performance omg. why did she get voted out that's so stupid. She has to get a record deal i would buy her music definitely

  • she got voted off cos she couldnt sing a song in tune.

  • yes. she haz got good facial expesions

  • She's got really interesting facial expressions! And i agree with cherony. She looks like a gothic snow white.

  • 1:17 makes me gap in awe

  • she is the best (^_^)

  • your right rock night was not her thing

  • she would sing norah jones songs well, she has the voice, wt a pitty she got elimminated, its all coz of the rock show night, it was set to elimminate her out to retain those rock singers. =/

  • The themes are pre-planned.

    Top 10 - Disco

    Top 9 - Acoustic

    Top 8 - British Pop

    Ect...

  • she sounds like a trumpet and that is awsome she rocks

  • she SLAUGHTERED that song! yuck - regina is sooooooo much better

  • She is the bomb! i hope to god she wins because talant like that should not be wasted, way better then the original SHE ROCKS

  • no way was that better than the original. not even close...

  • she looks like a gothic snow white.

  • Better than Regina? You must be joking!

  • thats amazin she sounds better than the real singer. I love her and fuck karl for not getting her style he's a fat bastard

  • so cute!

  • I love this song... Its just so simply pleasing and addictive. Brianna and Reigan have been the only idols I have ever liked... all the rest seem to be fixated on staying to the 'mainstream (Top 40)' songs... It irritates me. However, I can't expect everyone to perform what I like. Anyways... I think he is awesome and I enjoy her own music too... Check it out =)

  • Quirky song and she did it so well. Never been a fan of this music but she brought it home.

  • SHE ROCKS!!

  • this song makes me smile every single time.

  • Brianna is amazing, I wish they would put through more people like her on American Idol. She has a very good range, better then Regina in my opinion. I mean lets be honest the original song isn't that great, average, kinda cute but Brianna really makes it great with her personality.

  • heres an incredible question. why do you all have debates over others? lol people are funny, always saying weird things. shes beautiful and a great singer, and this is a good video, full stop. no debates needed about her life, live and let live. xx

  • i'm sorry but in this matter i think that GaladedridDamodred is right. Brianna is beautiful and quirky and i admire her for that. So even if she wasn't as good as Regina she would still win my vote against her if they were both in the competition. She is different and unique and that is probbably why she draws so much attention but that is also why i admire her. But most importantly humour89, i don't care what you say back to me because that is my opinion and it won't change.

  • regina is "quirky" too, only its motivated by herself, and isn't overdone to get further in a competition. why would you like someone for being "quirky" anyway? thats not a reason to like someone, and if you're idea of "quirky" or "different" is someone on aussie idol that looks and dresses a bit different then i suspect you are mighty sheltered. I live in Australia too, and i think australian idol is a shitty competition..

  • can you two please stop arguing it gets pretty annoying sometimes. Humour89 i live in Australia and i take offense to your comment " a shitty singing competition in Australia" i don't think it is and i have seen some great singers come out of it.I know you would probably argue but some people do have different opinions. But i can't decide if Regina or Brianna is better because i think they are both great singers even though Brianna has probably not had as much vocal training.

  • all you people that say she sings shit are forgetting that most the people on australian idol have had no singing training or experiance and she is just singing a song written by someone she admires

  • At 0:24 and 0:29, she sounds like shit.

  • the jusdges said it was great!!

  • she's cute and qwerky. a great combo!

  • da reason i like her is because she ain't act like sooo cool or so beautiful girl, she tried to catch da attraction of cute funny dolly girl...and her voice is so cute...i like her more then Regina.

  • she's da best!!!!....bestie bestie best best babie!

  • what did the judges say about it??

  • haha funny face in the end.

  • I want to cry, that use to me my favourite song untill just then! Idol use to be funny, but now that they are actually singing songs i like...

  • she's my idolllllllllllllll

  • if that was meant to be cute it wasnt no offence! I love her anyway

  • yer shes cool but the brightness on this thing is fucked

  • Looooooove herrrrr

  • Yea I think briana is a great singer :P but very weird like her brother lol goes to my school

  • better than the original i think but thats just me =] shes pretty cool and i want to be like her when i grow up xx

  • Completely butchered perfectly good song by Regina.

  • Yeah thats why she got voted into the top 12 lol... Your ears musn't work properly.

  • who give a fuck, its Australian Idol for goodness sake, and the last time i checked there's none of Aussies Idol actually famous outside of the country. And yes, the version sucks, Regina Spektor is one of most talented female singer in western world, this ooglay don't even compared to her.

  • Guy Sebastian is big America tho

  • no way in hell she's more talented than regina spektor

    this chick sounds just like every other grl singer

  • Her brother goes to my school ^.^

  • she is so cooky and quirky, it's great!!!

  • Yeah brianna rocks. but i think its a mistake to put her in the same basket as lisa. lisa only had that soft sweet voice. whereas brianna has a really strong voice as well (you just can't here it in fidelty cause its a soft, sweet song). Plus she had good taste in music so i finally get to her some good songs covered (my last fav was chanel doing portisehead's glorybox)

  • She's amazing! Her version is better than the original! And she's so cute! She looks like Amelie Poulain! So weird and quirky! I love her!

  • her version is better than the original? are you mentally ritarded? were you born without sensibilities and judgement? i hope you die in an aids fire

  • It is spelled "retarded", by the way, ma cherie. Unless, of course, you were typing in Italian, in which case the word is "ritard", meaning slow. No, I am not. Let me see... no affected accent, no annoying vocal gaps left for the music to fill and a face that is perfectly suited to this music and song? Yes, I'd say she's better. And one is not born with sensibilities and judgment, one develops them. I hope someone teaches you courtesy, you ill-mannered, uncouth, vile-mouthed kaq.

  • haha nice playing the intellectual high card... unfortunately you lose out because you sound like an idiot trying to sound smart. Have you heard Regina Spektor sing? her voice is undeniably 1000 times better than this shit. All this chick is doing is targeting the "alternative" demographic, trying to be quirky so that mindless youngsters like you will hop on board in the hope of adopting some of her "edge". "She's so weird and quirky i love her", that's exactly you.

  • and what does her face have to do with the music? she's ugly anyways, you're also forgetting that Regina wrote that song, this chick is about to lose a shitty singing competition in Australia. What's more her cabaret style overacting has turned a beautiful song into a joke

  • she was trying to make the competition fun and she only sung this song because you have to sing songs by other people ... she writes her own songs normally

  • I'll concede your point that the playacting was over the top, but first of all, beauty is in the eye of the beholder, you don't know she's about to lose, and what is it about people suddenly equating "Australia" with "the back of beyond"? And the one who writes the song is not always the one who sings it best.

  • Do you actually think this chick has a better voice than Regina Spektor? I can't see how someone could think that... forgive me for not using correct punctuation on a crappy youtube forum...i don't care how "smart" per se they are, i'm saying they are not basing their judgements on their opinions, rather what the think will promote themselves, what they think will add to their own character, make them look good.. which i think is egomaniacal and lame...

  • Yes, I actually do. I have weird taste in music, though, so maybe the general consensus IS that Regina Spektor is better, I just don't think so.

    And I must salute you on that last point. I despise such people.

  • i change my mind, i like you galadedriddamodred and lovepeacehopelife you're stupid

  • Why thank you. I like you too. ^.~

  • no u dont, u have normal taste in music.

  • Hark who's talking, the one who resorted to juvenile and immature insults- "I hope you die in an aids fire", wasn't it? Least I can sound like I'm trying to be intellectual instead of forgetting concepts I should have learned when I was 5. The first letter of every sentence is upper case, remember? And I'll thank you not to resort to gross generalisations to justify your views. And for a lot of those "mindless youngsters" are a lot more intelligent than you give them credit for.

  • i'm allowed to be insulting without comprimising what i said, i'm not trying to pass myself off as intellectual.. you seem like you are.. anyways.. i happen to like the "aids fire" thing.. combines two forms of dying into an medium which is impossible and therefore absurd and therfore hilarious.. beauty is in the eye of the beholder... and i think she's creepy looking..

  • Absurdism is the highest form of humour, as Charles Lutwidge would say.

    And I'm a creep, or so my sister says. You know what they say, birds of a feather flock together, beetles fancy other beetles, etceteras etceteras.

  • Shes very unique but how is she going to cope with the different themes thrown at her week after week. Its anther case where you have uniquely or 'alternative' talented singers but end up butching songs that they aren't familiar with. Like Lisa Mitchel, she could come under a lot of pressure performing with rock, rnb/soul and themes from older generations. Versatility may be a problem which is why Australian idol may not be suited to her. Sorry just my opinion.

  • true i, but lisa was my fave last year on idol. i tihnk lisa would have coped way better if she had rendered her song like what bobby flynn did to superfreak last year.

    thats what Brianna should do.

  • if you don't like her then don't say SHIT about her ==

  • I think she is hot. Mmm MMm good. Such a beautiful Lady.

  • wouldn't that be the only reason *to* say shit about her?

  • I was Here! Gud stuff btw

  • She is the most original singer in Australian Idol this year. She has to win or at least come second. Her uniqueness is awesome.

  • brianna is awesome

  • wanker.

  • lol, its halarious! Good on her for breaking the xtina wanna be style!

  • i like this song... but this is all a bit too weird

  • Thanks so much for the upload! I don't watch Australian Idol, but I saw her in the ads and I really like her. I hope she does well! I don't like how the song was cut so short.. and those facial expressions really add to the performance, in my opinion..

  • Almost all performances at this stage of the contest are shortened versions, it kind of sucks when they are good, like in this case, but when you get the bad ones, you wish they would end sooner.... :)

  • haha, fair enough. ;)

  • I love the facial expressions too.

  • I love her! but wot was with the facial expressions?

  • she would be a good actress!

  • She is a good actress. My best friend was in a production of Fiddler on the Roof with her. She played Chava which isn't really a big role but apparently she made the audience cry. I met her once in 2002 and hung out and her house while my best friend and her jammed. I don't remember much except her great voice and sense of humour.

  • * should say "at her house" not "and her house"..I went a bit dyslexic there...

  • ha ha ha ha ha ha ha

  • It is soo funny

  • luv it
