[denise2124u]

You've got that special something! You're going to go far if you'r able to disregard all the people who wanna hate on you for having something they can never have. You must be born with a talent like yours. We should talk. I know someone who can get you started.

[boosh3965]

that was awful!! stick to what you can sing

[newlevel81]

You have a great voice, but for pop music! You should try sing something more easy for you...

You'll never gonna reach the passion and the heart of the song, only Anthony can!

Again, try to sing some less soulful than this

[JESSIESHAUNEY]

[jonmcguirk]

hey buddy, i don't want to embarrass you in front of all these people or anything...but um..."witchu" isn't a word.....i believe the lyrics are "with you". i mean...you sang beautifully and sincerely and that just......completely destroys it.

[delmikotaylor]

Don't be offended but you sound like a sista with a lot of soul. You have  a unique one of a kind voice. Music is universal. I would love to hear you sing Gospel.

[sweets4u2t8st]

girl you can sing!!!!!!!!!

[iddah54]

[rcooper6]

OMG! You know, and please don't be offended by this, but If I closed my eyes I'd swear you were a sista. I know it doesn't matter, it's just an indication of how well you sing. I'm impressed.

[FreeMusicDog]

[Hatseflats89]

[mookie254real]

You have a nice voice but 1-10 your a 7. U still need some work. If your not already taking voice lessons, do so. But dont take that offensivly. Take it as a word of encourgement to take steps to improve. But nice choice song and keep it up!!!!

[Koldchillin2]

Home-Girl U need to be signed, no doubt. U made the song ur own. U have a voice that would make a person tear up. Pursue the music thing, I would like to see u make it.

[datcripgang101]

[DRaSTiK1979]

Good singer

But not her type of genre

[peaceXloveXjayde]

=).

[kalamo1]

I LOVE you me number 0903728353 slovakia

[Garnett87]

She's overdoing the song. This song is one of those songs that shouldn't be complicated, it's the emotion that it fills you with that makes it wonderful.

[ramalnosaj]

Why all the hatred...? She has a GREAT voice. No, she doesn't sound like Anthony Hamilton...that's because shes f!@#'n ESMEE DENTERS!! It's Anthony's song...he killed it. Great. But you don't expect this girl to sing the song EXACTLY the way he did...do you? If so, you're all idiots. Word. She is who she is. I'll be so happy when she starts recording...they'll write songs for her that'll be tailored for her tone of voice and style. Then maybe yall niggas'll shut the f!@# up. Sh!@#.

[luvureally]

I don't expect her to sound exactly like exactly like Anthony. That is far beyond her abilities.

[lanarei]

NOBODY sounds like Anthony. Thats far beyond anyones abilities. Anthony is incredible, and his voice has such a unique character. I'm surprised anyone would have the balls to sing his music.

[mills1fan]

then why r u tlkin?

[luvureally]

because i can.

[Michael3720]

that was awesome...

[c0coDip020]

g0000d ass job!

[2007OD]

YOU GO GIRL! WELL DONE.

[PryncessChez]

no need for nigger comments!!......be the more mature human being

[joycelynn23]

thats singing right there,i wish i could sing like that

[FrankMHWHite01]

SING IT GIRL!!!!

[bozo089]

good voice...butchered the song.

[Prettywoman658]

your really good

[PryncessChez]

And oh yeah....you aren't cocky for knowing that you have a gift!

[PryncessChez]

to all of those who are being ignorant.....MUSIC HAS NOOOOOO COLOR! Stop being so afraid that she is singing an R&B song better than some "Black" people. I am Black and also an artist. She did wonderful. She made it her own and thats what a REAL artist does. EDUCATE YOURSELVES!!!!!! Music is music no matter who sings of plays...

To the talented person singing....you did a wonderful job. I wish you much musical success in life!

[COCKY011]

this is cocky and i just have to say you have a great voice and your style is bomb it would would work well in the r&b community and your pretty to that helps keep singing soulful songs i think your amazing ..

[fioralb]

you like yosel tooo much gurl !

[JoyfromtheDUB]

stop hatin, this sounds nice! kuddos

[hotlatte07]

I must say that you sing that song better than a lot of people I know. very well done!

[Saquantico]

I must say this to you "masterp2590". You are an ignorant brother. You evidentally have no ear for music. I have been watching this girls career take off for over a year now. This is one of her older vids, but it is good. Check out her version of Dance with my father again by Luther V. This girl can blow better than a lot of the black girls on here. Music has no color. You can't knock her for being white and she has been signed already. So until YOU start singing, adios NIGGER(ignate-azz)

[luvureally]

Granted the girl has a good voice. But Anthony Hamilton is one of the very few true Soul singers out there today. A true Soul singer is one who can turn out the Dew Drop inn Saturday night and turn around and to the same thing at 1st Baptist Sunday morning. Anthony has that kind of training. The ad-libbing and the improv skills that the true souls singers like Mr. Hamilton and the greats before him have, this young lady is lacking. Good voice, but comes off more like a parrot.

[KazamaFury]

what? she's sing it in her own way, a parrot mimicks

[luvureally]

And that is what she is doing. She is mimicking Mr. Hamilton. And what sounds like her own way is because she cannot stretch notes, ad-lib and improvise the way Mr. Hamilton and other great soul singers can.

[KazamaFury]

I thought mimicking was trying to sound or appear as someone/something else? I don't see it like that, sorry....She's good and fortunately she can't be Anthony Hamilton, I'm fine with that

[luvureally]

A good cover is when someone brings something new and original to the table. She is mimicking Mr. Hamilton to the best of her limited ability in this genre.

[KazamaFury]

I guess no one will be satisfied unless she did a pop version. As long as it's along to the original instrumental it has to be exceed AH by light years. what nonsense

[lanarei]

sounded lovely to me. I don't think shes trying to be anthony hamilton, because first of all, I don't think shes getting a sex change. Second of all if I heard a woman sound like a man, I'd be a little creeped out. And I don't know why you're so hardcore critiquing her. She's just a girl who posted a webcam video of herself singing on youtube. Shes not trying to "be" anybody. Shes just singing. Moreover shes singing other peoples songs, so of course its going to sound "parrot " like.

[luvureally]

I stand by what I said. What is lovely to your ears is annoying and grating to mine. Of course she can't sound like a man. When I said parrot I meant her attempt to copy Anthony's phrasing and vocal inflections. She does not have the Black gospel background and training to even attempt this feat. Contrary to what Koldchillin2 said she did not make this song her own. One cannot own a song by merely doing a poor imitation of the original. Otis Redding wrote and recorded "Respect" first.

[luvureally]

But Aretha truly "owns" it. They are coming from the same place, so she had the ability to do that. This kind of minstrel show has been going on since Blacks were first kidnapped and brought to these shores. The watering down, no excuse me, dumbing down of Black musical expression for mainstream taste. That said, she has the potential to be a good pop singer. But this only makes her sound like a female Michael Bolton.

[rcooper6]

Your comments are inappropriately placed, sinnister in nature and rooted in the pathological nonesense that forever derails persons like yourself, who was reared on hatred and intolerance.

[luvureally]

Very good. I am happy you received an "A" in psych blah blah 101.

[slydon2006]

itz a good try but it dusnt have soul, thatz wat makes the song so good but ive seen ur other videoz good

[dollbaby436]

ur good but i like phatfffat version better

[newfielove]

Nothing beats the original, and that pretty much sounded the same, dropped a few notes here and there and that was it... Messing with classics isn't always the smartest idea.

[fOenktjj]

je hebt deze op mijn verjaardag gemaakt ( L )

loveu !

[Billlliie]

Of toegevoegd aan YouTube op je verjaardag (a) 3 september

[lonpops]

[naptownphenom55]

[DDstorm22]

Very well done...Beautiful voice....

[ghettochild97]

u r truly blessed

[realistbear]

[billybartonspurs]

Well said realistbear. Totally agree. Id give up now darlin

[shayler626]

Why Are You Guys Hatin On Esmee... U Guys Probally Cant Sing For Nuthing.. Esmee Is A Very Talented Young Lady... She Doing He Thing... Stop Hatin

[billybartonspurs]

Did i say i could sing u tosser. Even if i could i wuldnt put it on here, thats if your sad.

[realistbear]

i aint even hatin on no man, im just speaking da trooof like! so hush you gums boi!

[yeahyouwishx3]

very pretty... very talented

[khill4ls]

damn gurl you need to be in somebody studio

[KaiserRoby]

Well, I'll be damned! Get your sing on girl.

[dkingman]

not a bad voice girl...u need to stop copying peeps styles and get ur own.

keep up the good work...theres talent there waitin to be unleashed!! :)

[Emeless]

Nice tone to your voice! I enjoyed your version. Didn't think a female would sing this. Great!

[kimclak2]

You had "beyoncd" it to much! You should sing it with soul instead of too much fake emphasis and melody in your voice.

[deshaunalouis07]

beyonce is a good singer and if she did it like beyonce it was a honor for her so wat u said should be a compliment not a suggestion....and maybe she dont got soul so thats that...good singer

[kimclak2]

Beyoncè is a rather good singer. But most profesionals would tell you that she often simulate emotions while singing by putting vibrato and vocalizing to every end of word to make her voice sound good.

[kimclak2]

But i guess we all have different sensitivity to music and i wish her the best ... Singing with a real voice and no artifices to become a real singer respected by all for her real talent.

[kimclak2]

And That is where the difference is between her and a real good singer like Withney houston, Tamia, Celine Dion, George michael or anthony Hamilton who doesnt need those kind of effect to make people love them voice or song.

[KazamaFury]

I love this and I love your cover of it. Much success to you
