  • what an amazing take on this song.

    you have a beautiful voice.

    great job!!!!

  • Whoa, I'm an INSTANT fan. Just stumbled on you looking for fellow "Grey" covers. Your voice is so powerful and demanding. Great work...

  • do you have the chords/a tab for this?

    I wanna learn to play it

  • This is by far the best rendition of this song I have ever heard. I didn't get the passion and meaning of the song until I heard you sing it. I've been playing it obsessively.

    Thanks so much for bringing another Ani song to life for me.

  • You have a FANTASTIC voice. I can't wait to check out the rest of your songs.

  • I've posted before, and I'm a HUGE Ani fan. I check out all of the covers, and give props where props are due, but I gotta say, I've listened to your covers over and over, and god damn girl, if anyone puts emotion in this song...it's you!

  • You are outstanding. Awesome! I do note the contrast between Ani's vocal on her version of the song, which is softer and has the effect of sounding kind of meek, versus your vocal which is sharper and more forceful. I might prefer Ani's a bit, but I like 'em both and your guitar is great. Really well done. Thanks for uploading this I enjoyed it. I will check out some of your other stuff. ( :
