  • idk what everyone else is saying this song is really hard and u did an awesome job...being able to play this song represents a true mastery of timing

  • speeding it up is not helping any part of this song. It feels rushed, you're barely giving yourself any time to breathe, and you're fumbling through the words... Slow it down haha

  • I do love your voice though. =)

  • All of that at once. I like the piano. but you probably were more focused on the beat and piano. try just a Capella or with the music like a Pre-made karaoke. I'd like to know what you sound like when you're paying attention to your voice.

  • You were AWESOME!

    Haha, really good! :)

  • Your voice is great, you just got some of the words wrong and skipped some. But it's really a hard song. Definitely didn't kill it, just did it differently. I'd like to see some of the people who were so harsh do it themselves. Keep singing =]

  • She didnt kill it. She just did it a little different. It wasnt bad.

  • possibly the worlds hardest song to sing. you're amazing. made me smile:D

  • This is really good

  • I dont understand how people can be so mean on these videos. This is McKenna's interpretation of the song. if you dont like it, dont listen. Dont discourage fellow artists even if you dont like it. Its just respectful.

    McKenna, you have a beautiful voice and this was a really bold choice of song. So kudos to you! I love how you made it your own! <3

  • You are so amazing and so talented, I thoroughly enjoyed your performance!

  • That is one of my favourite songs too and I thought you did a good job so don't listen to those other people :)

  • I think you're awesome!!!! I'm sure Regina's got haters too so I'd take it as a compliment that some idiots are bad-mouthing you on here. :D You rock. x

  • Love this cover!!

  • Love this! Wish you would just sloooow down and let us hear your beautiful voice! A little more confidence would be great. You got it girl!

  • I think it was wonderful!

    Man... Some people are real jerks. Regina wouldn't approve of their rude comments.

    You have a great voice. Keep it up!

  • this is one of my fav regina songs too but this girl did good with it, but for you to say she killed is not nessesary....its just noone compares to regina <3

  • I really liked this cover!!!!!!!! thnx for sharing

  • i liked it :) u made it ur own

  • The person that said you butchered their favorite song, I don't get it. I think you have a really beautiful voice and you sang it song! All in all, I think you flattered this song! Good job! :D

  • Psh, I like your version!(: Your voice is amazing.

  • I think you should have slowed down a bit... it's not bad..

  • I liked it ! don't listen to any one

  • um i don't know how to put this nicely so i'll just say that that was pretty bad...

  • I like it :-)

  • Kool cover

  • You are very talented! I love your version of this song! Keep singing! :-)

  • Yeah.... no.

    But, you're pretty, and so is your voice, just not to do Regina.

  • I loved this cover... jeez. Lay off her.

  • @Nina0568 That's rude of you. If you don't like the video.. don't comment. You're lowering the self esteem of someone who has a fine voice. Hope life gets better for you.

  • i think you did great, it's just that the sound quality of the cam isn't that good.

  • okay you didn't butcher the song.. these people are really mean. you have an AMAZING voice. you honestly should try a harder song to sing to show off your voice. you did speed up the tempo a little and mess up a few of the words but i think you could do much better than this song allows you to.

  • i think that was ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. evrybody tht commented and said she was bad i bet a million dollars you couldnt do anything as great as tht. i bet u couldnt come close.

  • i logged in to my account to simply comment! xD

    your amazing!<3 keep it up(;

    i listen to your version on my ipod all the time lol

  • I love this so muchh.

    Listen to it 24/7.

  • @tjgurl222 Like I like it more then the original.

  • you sing well. but wrong lyrics!

  • so all in all its great vocally. i think it would better if you went the tempo. a little fast. and the lyrics are off. but again you have a great voice. if you did again slower and had the lyrics, that would be great. you don't have to swear or whatever, i don't either. but good job.

  • I Love This Song So Much By Regina, BUt I Actually Think Yu Put This Amazing Sping On To It And I Love It! Iv Listened To Way To Much But I dont Care :D xxxx

  • Hi, I seriously wouldn't listen to those other people, I think you did a really good job on this song, I can't see how you could have ruined it for anyone!!! KUDOS!!!

  • this is my favorite cover of all time. you're voice is killer. :)

  • i thought it was fantastic.. and of course she doesnt sound completely connected to the song, she didnt write it did she? but this is a hard song to sing and you did a good job :)

  • fantastic. not an easy song to cover.

  • I personally think this was good. Everyone's so concerned with preserving the condition of the original song. Ya know what? If people did that, music would never change. Everyone chill the heck out. She missed a few words, so what? At least she has the GUTS to even put herself out there. Jeez.

    I thought it was REALLY good. I like it a lot.

  • Ouch, you guys give her a break. It wasn't that bad. It could use some work but seriously you guys, 'Butchering the song'

    A bit dramatic don't you think?

  • I think you're really really good!

  • You sound like you're just trying to get the words out. This could be good if you were actually feeling it instead of just going all blah.

  • i thought you did good!

  • Awesome cover! Thank you for this.

  • You could have at least got the lyrics right. ._.

  • no.

  • I thought this was REALLY good..any hater probably cant sing themselves

  • i love love love this!

  • Really awesome job C:

    I am impressed.

  • you should of left it the way it was. it was perfect the way it was.

  • Hey! This is great! Not horrible! Its a very hard song, or at least the lyrics is kinda hard. Its alot of work, and you did a great job!

    Keep it on, your voice is amazing! :D

  • Good job. I saw L.A. Jazz singer Gina Saputo do this live. Your voice is similar to hers. Don't let the negative comments bother you. You have talent.

  • I loooove your cover of this. so unique. I love how you made it your own. You have a gorgeous voice! How do you project it like that?

  • I know the lyrics are hard, so no problem you messed them up a little. I like your voice and your interpretation very much! dont know why people hate it, perhaps it's taste.

  • I don't know why people are flipping out. I think it's a pretty good cover. The only issue is that at times you're playing way too fast. But good job. :)

  • You messed up the words....

  • it's hippy shit. and this isn't a good song for you. your voice isn't horrible but you did kill this song, it's really bad. Do you get the meaning behind this song at all?

  • i dont swear...sorry!

  • @mckennaa24 I love that video! But what do you say instead hippy shit?By the way your totally wrong she did an amzing job and I think having that courage to switch something thats already great takes alot of guts!

  • @mckennaa24 omg I work around the cursing too!

  • @mckennaa24 Don't listen to any of these people, you're a monster at life and better than anybody who has anything negative to say. Good luck with your stuff =)

  • @mckennaa24 why? it's part of the song.. it's just a word..

  • you sir, are an asshole. she sounds lovely.

  • @authorit09 wow! What a duece thing to say!

  • @johnlennon1110 she messed up over half the words, leaving some lines out completely. She couldnt do the speak sing part and she obviously tried to make a meaninful song into some catchy pop peice. I said her voice isnt bad but its not at all right for this song and her apparent lack of understanding for the lyrics combined with the fact she didnt even know what wre proves my point she killed the song.

  • @authorit09 She DId Not Kill The Song!! and of course she wants to hear people opions but you did not have leave such a rude one and seriously who gives a shit that "she messed over half of the words". I like to see you do this song its VERY hard to do! So dont go trashing her because she "made it into some catchy pop piece".

    ps. you did not prove your piont because she did not kill the song!

  • @authorit09 You're a dick. Enough said.

  • @johnlennon1110 MY opinion is not a duece thing to say, what a clever insult. Its cool she doesn't swear but that doesnt excuse for the feact she left out half of the last verse and didnt even remember to repeat the begining verse at the end. If she didn't want to hear peoples opinions there is a button to click to keep people from commenting.

  • @authorit09

    nah

  • @authorit09 wow.. just because YOU dont like how she preformed it and just because she didnt say one swear word she suddenly doesnt understand the MEANING of the song? Your dumb. I hope life gets better for you.

  • @authorit09

    Because you're an authority on Regina Spektor's thought processes?

  • @authorit09 What do you think the meaning of this song is?

  • I don't get why people r saying ur version is horrible,

    maybe its not regina spektor but this is SOO COOOL I LOVE IT,jesus I am jealous

  • this is great!!

  • If people heard the real version and LISTEN TO THE WORDS people would see that this is TRASH compared to Regina.

  • yes, plattupus you are exactly right.

  • that "warning and warning and warning of" was awful. and you have no emotions when you're singing. the lyrics are beautiful and you MURDERED it.

  • Comment removed

  • I listened to it twice, prob cus the dj was asleep....

  • sorry you ruined this song. Do you even get the lyrics

  • ftw?

  • ur amazing

  • favorite song from regina spektor. cant find it on itunes though :p

  • awesome, i love this song :)

  • i'm amazed.

    great job! I love the way you say warning for some reason haha.

  • this is really good .... i love that you put your own style to it!!! check my regina cover out too !!!!

  • DUDE THIS IS SO GOOD.

  • You are a lovely singer, and have an amazing vocal range. The thigh slapping distracted me a bit though...

  • just slow it down next time

  • good acoustics from good slappable thighs

  • You have a style your own that you add to this song, and that's the point of a cover. Amazing. Still captured Regina's quirkiness. Really good.

  • lol i like this u know i think its just me dat thinks dat u look like her i mean regina hahahha i like it u r awesome u should make all of the songs covers haha lol

  • awesome! Great cover

  • AMAZING! beautiful! :) i love it!

  • ...and I'd like to turn them down but there ain't no knob...

    and

    ...prophets are silent...

    are my favourite lines in this song!!

  • You guys are stupid. it says she switched it up duh. its a cover. quit acting like its regina spektor herself...

    I think the laughing in the beginning added personality + she did amazing..its a hard song to sing.

  • yea it was a good effort, but definately too fast and some quite obvious errors in the lyrics :p Can i ask about one of the lyrics? as it just seems like you are sounding it out 2:17, isnt it "possible leakage from news publications and, possible leakage from news tv stations"

  • ahn yeah that was nice [but you could have cut the laughing part in the beginning]

    except for the "yeahs"

    i dunno just didnt liked it

    anyways that was really good even if it was faster than the origina lol

  • absolutely fabulous

  • i think you should re-do this vid and get the lyrics right and i love this song but you did Alright though 8] just dont edit the song with new beats and stuff cuz its a good song.

  • this is great!! a little too fast though.

  • wtf. she sounds great but she definately should not have changed the lyrics. she cut some off. not cool.

  • holy crap, you did this song so well! :D

  • LEARN THE WORDS! its such a meaningful song, get the lyrics.

  • love this

  • TOO FAST! and i cant understand you!

  • no.

  • You got it girl!!!! WOW :)

  • awesome!!

  • You got the words wrong :(

  • Yes, you did why is this comment getting loads of thumbs downs ? Go and listen to the song .

  • WOW *****

  • I like this one the best out of all of yours...

  • Very good just a little disconnected like. It seemed you were singing words for the sound not for meaning. I like the changes you made though like speed etc. Keep up the good work!

  • yeah actually i think i was singing it more for the sound and creativity of the pice rather than the words...but thanks for the constructive criticism :)

  • this is very very good :)

  • Very impressive

  • you got a lot of the lyrics wrong

    no offense

    you missed like half of the last verse. its supposed to go

    "sweating like demons they scream through our speakers but we leave the sound on cuz silence is harder and no one's the killer and no one's the martyr the world that has made us can no longer contain us and profits are silent and rotting away cuz the consonants and vowels"

    you have an ok voice, but if you're gonna sing it, sing it right

  • idiot

  • Comment removed

  • beautiful, just watch the words you said the consequence of sound twice in a row. Anyway...you sound great, you ould sing all her songs.

  • nice job, not an easy song

  • well donee ,

  • Wow wow wow. That was amazing. Regina Spektor would be proud. :)
