Leavin' on a Jet Plane (John Denver cover)

[moparman1962]

Hi Annie. As many have commented, you have true talent. Your pitch, tone and depth are fantastic. I definitely hear many of Karen Carpenter's vocal talents in your voice. She was one of the few female vocalists who could sing without musical backup and sound incredible. You are able to do that as well. I'd love to hear you sing WITH backing music, acoustic guitar and perhaps light drums. I encourage you to keep singing, consider trying it with good backing music. You could only sound better!

[slchiphop]

i would rate you a 6 for voice... tits a 3... overall like 4

[CHASxWILSON]

@slchiphop What a cretinous comment. You obviously have little education and proper upbringing. I'm going to offer you a few words of advice: Before you post something, check your spelling and grammar; that way people won't immediately know that you are witless. If you want anyone to refrain from dismissing you as a feckless loser, garner some credentials before criticizing. Those who can, do. Those who can't, write nasty little nothings on youtube. Learn some manners and grammar, little boy.

[alr8496]

Of all your songs, this one had moved me the most. Your rendition is brilliant. You nailed this song perfectly. Few could do this without music. That was gutsy of you, and shows your true talent. Can you tell us what you do as a musician..band, clubs, parties, etc.? Thanks

[stevescissors]

such a sweet voice. :-)

[escort127]

Hi Annie...You sing the sad songs.....Very nice.......give you a 8 on your looks.....you could get a 9 with a smile......But this time a 9 on the singing......Very nice!!!!!!!!!!

[samyvideos]

You are so beautiful...inside and outside



[songtruth]

@samyvideos Why, thank you, dear samy! :)

[SoftGuitar]

Quite a beautiful range and vibrato....love the tone of your voice...

[songtruth]

@SoftGuitar Thanks, sg!

[loyalnorthman]

I remember this song when I was a kid.

Love this song.

Now that I`m older the thought of this beautiful lady leaving really hits home.

[songtruth]

@loyalnorthman Awww. You're sweet.

[whygod1105]

Brilliant ,truly.

[songtruth]

@whygod1105 Thank you!!!

[GreatestSingerEver01]

Perfect pitch! Beautiful cover!

[songtruth]

@GreatestSingerEver01 Perfect pitch? Really? Thanks!!!

[GreatestSingerEver01]

@songtruth  I'm not a musician but what I hear is beautiful and right on the mark. Not many can sing with music, but to sing beautifully without music takes genuine talent. You don't need music. I can think of two other women singers that don't need music and they are Olivia Newton-John and Dolly Parton. Keep singing because it is beautiful! :-)

[songtruth]

@GreatestSingerEver01  Wow, thank you. You made my day.

[JohnDUskglass]

Lovely, lovely singing. I thought it was cool, too, that a plane could be heard in the background. Your inspiration for this song? A nearby airport?

I'm glad you share these with us. For me, it makes me experience the joy of singing outloud. :)

[songtruth]

@JohnDUskglass Thank you, John. You are so sweet. :)

[FrancisRidley]

I almost felt you were singing this to me. I wish my love interest would sing this to me when she leaves on jet planes. I will have to speak to her about this. :)

[songtruth]

Thank you, Francis! Good luck!

[FrancisRidley]

Heartbroken and marooned in Calgary. Things could be worse, I could be stuck in Toronto. :)

[SUNNYD3322]

No! please wait don't go yet, I am very fond of your voice. Well done you have got talent.

[songtruth]

haha! thanks, sunnyd! :)

[Omega001]

sexy and have a really nice voice

[songtruth]

thank you, omega001! :)

[stevedoug50]

Another really nice one. Its really difficult to carry the tune without some musical background and you did it beautifuly.

Doug

[songtruth]

thank you, doug!

[blanton1624]

Another hit headed for the top with a bullet on Bill's Top 40 oldies charts!!!

Keep 'em coming.

[songtruth]

thanks, blanton1624!  :)

[ecuador812]

I love your voice. Do you like the Carpenters?

[songtruth]

thank you, ecuador812! yes, i love the carpenters!

[onkelbuke]

Hi, you have such a beautiful voice. keep on singing. i also tryed to sing tis song, ( without the songtext, thats why the mistakes in the language). but please keep on singing, sounds great.From Germany Gruß Chris , Onkelbuke

[onkelbuke]

its not easy to sing without musik, you must feel it to sing it like you, and i hear it. have a nice day, Chris

[songtruth]

thank you!

[songtruth]

thank you, chris!

[firemanks098]

Ironic the plane in the background... another beautiful song and you did it so well. Wish I was able to put together another band right now but I have to many bands to work with now.

[songtruth]

thank you! that's a nice wish. maybe someday!

[EstherandAust]

i havnt seen you do 1 good cover yet god only knows whos rating you i keep thinking ill listen to another she might gret better and you just get worse sorry, :-(

[shas1814]

I seems odd to be listening to such great music and it's just a lady sitting in her front room singing with no cheating mic, no accompaniment, airplanes and cars in the background... and it's just awesome music! Probably the best version I've heard. And being a Vietnam era flower child I've heard a bunch of 'em. What a lovely voice. 5 stars, of course. I hope everyone here rates you!

[songtruth]

thank you so much, shas!

[titatita99]

i love this song! ohh, i can't help clapping! i admire your voices very much!

[songtruth]

thank you, tita!

[Maysey1]

Alright, you are forcing me into covering a song by one of my favorite songwriters, maybe a song titled "Darcy Farrow"? I loved it! Mark

[songtruth]

thank you! i don't know that song of which you speak...

[anabelasala]

I love your voice! It would be wonderful listening to you singing "Angel"(Sarah Maclachlan

[songtruth]

thank you. i like that song.

[ottokees]

Hola !!! your sweet video so brightened my cold patagonian winter...thank you very much!!!. Cheers!!!,Sergio..

[songtruth]

i'm so glad! winter's a bummer!

[bluesprince26]

Hope you're not that lonesome like me :-(

Anyway I prefer your version to John's ... Peter, Paul & Mary have still got the edge though :-)

[songtruth]

i was, but i'm feeling less lonely these days. i hope you are, too. thank you!

[ticklah]

Beautiful rendition of this song. I've heard so many people do this song, but I can honestly say this is by far, one of the best i've heard!

[songtruth]

Really?????!!! Wow! Thanks, ticklah! You totally just made my day. :)

[BLDMLN1007]

very nice, thank you.

[songtruth]

thanks, bldmln1007! :)

[ParadiseEarth1]

Hello ST how are You? :^) -- Beautiful song, thank you. This song never sounded so sad before.... Such sacrifice being asked of the one being left behind. If you're in the place of the one who stays, would you wait for the one leaving on the Jet Plane while he plays around?*****

John & Karen Spirits Lives*****

[songtruth]

I'm pretty well, thank you, PE1. It is a very, very sad song. their spirits will live on forever. i wonder what they're doing right now? maybe they're singing together up in heaven, along with Patsy. And Frank and John...

[ParadiseEarth1]

I'd like to imagine they, together with John Lennon and George Harrison and others have written a welcome song when good people get there :^)

In the mean time while we're still in this realm, we got your heavenly voice to be in spirits with them, especially Karen*Smooch*:^)

[tps607]

Ironic that there should be a plane flying over in the last two bars,but not a jet! Life is like that,at least for me.You have a wonderful and soothing voice,and John Denver is certain to be looking down at this with a pleased smile!

[songtruth]

dear tps607, i didn't realize a plane flew over during the song. cool! i hope he's looking down on me because i love him SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much!!! i love you John, wherever you are!!! Thanks for the lovely compliments. :)

[maroxello]

I loved it. I loved you. I want more and more songs of John Denver.

Hugs from São Paulo/Brazil

[songtruth]

thank you, maroxello! abrigada! i love john denver.

[UnificationNow]

I love this song and your voice fits it beautifully :-)

[songtruth]

[suzibee1989]

[caveman1113]

Listening 2U do this song gives me warm thoughts like: GIVING a great massage, Knowing how a gift U got em will rock their world, + SEEING IT in their eyes. Snuggling under a thick, warm, satiny quilt in front of a perfect fire on a winters eve. Phew! Had 2 stop that be4 it got me 2 warm. ;-> SO ANYWAY, U're Definitely givin me the "soft-n-fuzzies." U like my kinda tunes too. U can sing in MY ear anytime U want.

[songtruth]

Hello, caveman1113. You don't write like a caveman. You must be one of the highly evolved ones. A caveman with poetic sensibilities. I like it! Thank you for your lovely comments. :)

[songtruth]

Thanks, CrazyJUSAF!!! :)

[CrazyJUSAF]

Wow, excellent job!

[Ityler94]

[songtruth]

Thank you, Ityler94! Happy New Year!

[Ityler94]

[suzylux]

you sounded ok. yr brave to put up a vid of you singing, that's for sure :))

[songtruth]

Thanks for stopping by, suzy!

[suzylux]

sure thing.

[DarKmaster9999]

No emotion, nothing.

There is a sound coming from this face, John sent a sound from his heart.

[songtruth]

I get inhibited in front of the camera. I'm working on it. I emote all over the place when I'm not recording or singing in front of anyone. Thanks for stopping by!

[drbcook]

Get a band behind you girl you sound good !

[songtruth]

thanks drbcook!

[jorkjica]

I remember being fourteen and slow dancing to this song at my school dance; romance swimming in my adolescent stage. This song and Close to You bring back so many memories. Realy enjoyed your singing. I want to send you some accompaniment...but can't.

[songtruth]

thank you. i want you to send me some accompaniment, too! why can't you?

[jorkjica]

Unfortunately the last 30 years I have been an on again off again amateur classical guitarist and worked strickly off of music sheets...very mechanical process. I am working on accompaniment now but not at your level by far! Maybe in six months to a year.

[sec713]

I really wanted to talk shit about this video, but I guess I can't - you sound great.

[songtruth]

thanks, sec713! i'm glad you couldn't find anything to talk shit about!

[usarmy92y]

You have a very fluid voice. I love this. You did an amazing job.

[songtruth]

thank you, usarmy92y!

[sherfdad]

This girl's voice is so pure and sweet, I wonder if people even notice how pretty she is. Fame and fortune await.

[songtruth]

thank you. :)

[Nonna24]

That was absolutely beautiful! You had wonderful pitch, and it's hard to sing a capella and keep such good pitch. At times it sounded very much like Karen Carpenter (one of the greatest pop music voices there will ever be). Very angelic! Keep singing! You're a blessing!

[songtruth]

Thank you so much, Nonna! What a huge compliment. :) She's the greatest who ever lived.

[a2dsmusic]

Awesome!! you did a great job :)

[songtruth]

Thank you!

[sumen32]

Excellent work.. very good.. you look nervous ...relax :)

[songtruth]

Oh my gosh, thank you, Lisa!!! You're wonderful. You're welcome, and I'm glad you like my singing.

[SaraC75]

That was awesome. I grew up on the Peter, Paul and Mary version... I totally added this to my "cover" playlist. Thanks!!!

[songtruth]

Thank you! I love PPM's version, too!

[LyricaFairy]

[keisterboy]

Gave me the chills. Beautiful!

[songtruth]

really? :)  thanks!!!!

[keisterboy]

Really!!! and I didn't know that was a John Denver song. I always thought Judy Collins or someone like that.

[songtruth]

yeah, dude, he totally wrote that. he was GENIUS songwriter. great singer, too, of course. and environmental activist.

[Wmhohenzollern]

You did a fantastic job! Keep them coming!
