popy cover...nothing new, too bad that this kind of classics songs doesn't get the much respect needed and every "cutiy-popy" incomer can think she can make a cover...well i think not!!!
Serena your still my favourite singer! Got your cd - if your memory serves you well (not very easy in germany to find) What a great CD - I miss Canada and you here!!
Selena Ryder is the latest very talented Canadian female singer/songwriter; the list is long and growing.This song, along with Melanie Doan's " All The Diamonds", could replace a couple of tired old Christmas songs.
Not in canada they can't. theres nothing that canadians love more than those tiresome, weezy old canadian standards like 'Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer,' 'Jolly Jolly Xmas' by dirl Ives the nova scotia folksinger, he played a snowman by the way in a kid's show.
and that sordid jazzy 'Santa Baby'. its played almost 24 hours a day. and of course ANYTHING by that crooner perry Comb. Sheesh,!
Soon its christmastime and the third year me and all other germans have to miss this song in radio. Your songs so great, your voice so powerful. You stand with Amy W. and Gabriela G. which are populare here, why they hide you? No lobby? That girl is so great - hope once meet/hear you here - Greatings to Vancouver :O) and my Serena
I avoid going into Dallas at all costs...but when you came their on tour I made the exception. If any of you get a chance to watch her pour her heart out in person..DO IT.
Okay, I've never heard this version before. I'm smitten, smote, and am full of smite-ness. If this is the only thing I ever hear her do, I'm still done for. What tones and tonal arrangement!
Ich liebe dieses Lied und die Stimme von Serena - warum kann ich das nicht in Deutschland im Radio hören!!!! I love that song, that voice and that woman - why so far nobody in Germany knows about her - only me???
I'd never heard of this singer until a few days ago, but wow, what a great voice....and I love the remake. Great video! She's got a kind of Alanis Morissette/Mary Tyler Moore thing going on. She also looks a lot like Mindy, from Mork and Mindy.
Sorry just to be clearer the movie was made in 1979. Get it out it's a hoot but yes the musical was from much earlier. After an off-Broadway debut in October 1967, the show opened on Broadway in April 1968.
i`m a guy who suffers from depression & on the days when i feel a little down i play this song and it never fails to give me a smile ,thank you Serena.
beautiful song. it sounds so timeless. I thought this song was maybe 30 years old. I just listened to it on the radio for maybe the second time. So I memorized some of the lyrics and searched for it.
I am addicted to this song! It captivated me on the t.v. as it rose far above all the other music. I've been learning to sing and play the guitar for this song. I love it! Beautiful voice! I tried listening to the original but Serena's version is superior.
Wow,,, amazing voice and beautiful woman matched with classic fun song and professional videography and editing with some real production value - this is one of my favorite pick-me-up visuals and vocals. Thanks for listening and sharing...
I never liked this song that much, but she does the best version of it I've heard. Ooby-olla-walla indeed. (My fave by her: "My Heart Cries For You," although how she found and rescued that hoary chestnut is beyond me...)
I thought (like other people) that this song was a John Denver classic. Thanks google for the correct info! My children say i watch this video too much. Just so pretty. Did you know that this song ( the way you've arranged it musicaly, that it would generate such positive feelings on people before you release it?
I love Serena and her way to sing that song is beatiful... excuse my english i`m from venezuela, 10000000000 kisses to Serena, good morning starshin very good in her voice
This song musically stands on it's own merit regardless of who the singer happens to be. In the same context it would be just as popular if there were no singer, just the music. What makes it so attractive musically is the great underlying samba/spanish rhythm. Remake or no, Serena's true to life version is great. It's the music that counts, if it weren't Oliver would have sang it Acapella.
good Lord. i clicked on this expecting to hear the original and i get more proof that the new generation's so low on talent they have to remake another song
covering songs has gone on all through the 20th century, I doubt your generation of music is exempt...good songs are covered over and over and are often hits over and over and come to a new generation .... thats the beauty of it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Low on talent...check out Whitney Houston's cover of Dolly Parton's I Will Always Love You....only 12 million hits, then check Dolly's hits.And no one ever covered an Elvis song.....LOL
Awesome redo of this song. Ok Ok going to date myself here. I remember when the first version came out and I loved it then. Great song! And loved this one.
.wow wow OW!..a new talent that can actually do justice to remakes!..I am impressed..and also a new subscriber..you are going to go far..just don't let the greedy self centred recording companies ruin you with their empty lame promises..you don't need them as you have the skill to do it on your now..God Bless..Mike from Northern Ontario
