Fantasia Vs. Leona Lewis Vs. Sheryn Regis - SUMMERTIME

[dah0831]

idk wat yall tasia haters is talkin bout but she recorded the song so......

[palubasyang]

as pinay then sheryn is powerful! mga negra natural sa kanila na thin ang voice kasi

[sam197535]

3 OF THEM ARE GREAT SINGERS!

[Yorkshire2k9]

has to be leona for me :)

[blacmisses]

Fantasia sings better. Not to make this about race but African Americans have soul. Leona video is just louder than the others. Turn Tasia up!

[crisinguer]

leona!

[BiggestMeechEST91]

LEONA LEWIS .............not overdone, not underdone......and vocally in sync with the song....The other two are just okay for their singing styles..whispers and belting, but Leona is Vocally inclined!

[khryss110776]

So bad to see that overacting and dramatic Leona! Fantasia is on her declamation piece and Sheryn is singing so powerful and energetic... nice Sheryn!

[DelvinJordan15]

Honestly, you can't really judge them because every last one is different. None of their voices are alike....not even a little! I loved all of them!....well idk about the third girl lol

[DanScot19]

Leona Lewis Hands down. Amazing Vocals.

Fantasia, amazing lotta soul.

Sheryn , Ok little unpleasant for my ears.

[maltavmalta]

I suppose if you could roll all three into one - I suppose it would be a perfect, perfect performance...

[mathildeww]

Fantasia has soul

[MrPatrash]

lung power, musicality and soultryness. i took out voice quality coz they have different tones and voice quality. sheryn 10 lung power, 5 on musicality and 3 on soutriness. fantasia gets 7 on lung power, 7 on musicality and 10 on soultriness. leona gets 6 on lung power, 10 on musicality and 9 on soultriness. wow!

[96raindrop96]

leona wins hands down!!!

[crocs241]

fantasia's version is purely about SOUL, leona on the other hand is a vocal master class, sheryn's performance in my opinion is a little bit forced although there are some notes that she hit very well.

[Chloemarei]

i like fantasia's version though...

[jake27990]

Leona Lewis no doubt !!

[mrblackiridium]

i vote leona for this one.... perfect rendition...

[jpotter19]

i like fantasia's showmanship..

[9welbeck]

Leona is known worldwide and acknowledged as having one of the best voices of our generation. Listen to who you like and spend less time on daft comparisons, life's too short.

[cassandratype4]

fantasia has more soul , is a better performer... period

[marxelo192]

i LOVE lEONAA..!!! U'RE U THE BATTER VOICES OF THE 4 WOMAN!!!!!!

[MrLuigiable]

Sheryn didn't understand the meaning od the song at all.

[qwertyuiopz123]

@MrLuigiable why? because her version is jazz? if anyone doesnt understand anything its u

[MrLuigiable]

@qwertyuiopz123 I love jazz. I love Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Frank Sinatra, Louis Armstrong. I'm also the hugest fan of Fantasia and her genre is RnB which originated from the blues, gospel, trad. pop and JAZZ. This song was sung as a lullaby by poor black parents to their baby telling the baby that everything's going to be alright. Tasia brought out the story in her version. Leona and Sheryn, not really. BUT, I have to say though, Sheryn's an amazing singer. This just wasn't her best.

[MrLuigiable]

@qwertyuiopz123 And i'm sorry if offended you in any way. :)

[illios08]

leona, and who is that sheryn anyway? her voice sucks

[ManOfBamboo]

Fantasia... She actually has a personality unlike certain other vocalists in this video, and she put soul and emotion into this already legendary song... Fantasia actually felt what she was singing, Leona seemed to be too concentrated on not messing up the song and hitting all the notes right...

[KailTrueman]

leona is so awkward but i love her vice....that one girl is crazy! wasshe supposed to b singin? FANTASIA wins! best, soulful, beautiful, everything a performance shoul b....

[TheMscece101]

leona won no doubt about it

[VogueBombshell]

Leona was no doubt the best.  amazing range. smooth voice.

well what saintzreji said

[theophilusgonzales]

Sheryn reigns supreme!

[MrEee2010]

@theophilusgonzales yup.. sheryn got it

[LWZ25hxl]

without question leona. shes out of this world.

[vutmat123]

Fantasia voice is beautiful

[EtNiEsBoY0016]

leona made this song =)

[rhodjie09]

i'm a fan of sheryn but i think that leona sang it really well than the other champions... but i still love sheryn...

[borj22]

no doubt. leona nailed this song.

[fralippi]

sheryn nailed it!

[smokey240386]

leona lewis smashed it end of!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[markleob]

sheryn!

[hartage1]

i am a fan of leona but tasia got dis one...but i still love my girl leona though...

[nocents81]

Leona Lewis sang it very well but in my own opinion Fantasia's version is more soulful .I like Fantasia's version the best. All three can sing if you want that Whitney kind of voice you will like Leona a more soulful version you will go with Fantasia and the other girl was just okay compared to the other two.

[duythanhst]

leona is no doubt the best :)

[JENNYJAY49]

Sheryn is in a Sunday morning live variety show while Leona and Fantasia were in singing competition on this video.

[tburke644]

LEONA LEWIS!!! IS THE BEST!!!

the others are good too though!

[hellomynameisearl00]

Leona sang it much better technically. It was much better executed. Leona would simply always win because she has the best voice. Fantasia was good and the other was a bit whiney...

[santililing]

sheryn sucks...hahaha

[teenyjem]

leona all the way

[da69erboi]

can these filipinos comment in english so everyone could uerstand what they are saying?

anyway, all are great especially sheryn. what an angelic voice she has.

[aeolus88]

We can comment in english, just that there are few who's been able to do it... I am Filipino.

And about the performances I think they are all great but well plotted is Leona's.

[mystyle200]

fantasia sucks leona is the greatest woot!!

[corner53000]

A black woman will always be the best FANTASIA Fo Sho

[scorpio211176]

fantasia and leona is far much better than the other.

[markleob]

@scorpio211176 sure? you dont know their profiles yet... hahah

[SCfinest83]

Fantasia

[feezfe]

Leona!!!! but the first is houston :P

[ARloves2sing]

Matigas ang diction ni Sheryn kahit kailan don't like her vesion. Kanta nalang s'ya ng tagalog.

[wellasang]

Please check the word diction in the dictionary. At saka, your version is spelled wrong. She is a graduate of Bachelor of Science in Secondary Education major in English from a public university: Cebu Normal University. She does not just enunciate a word without her knowing it carefully. Please be careful of the word "matigas". Which word is hard to pronounce?

[markleob]

@ARloves2sing sing tagalog? lol.. you are not any better..

[sigarantang]

leona..

[TasiaFAN89]

Fantasia!!!!!!!!!!! lol hence the name

[jack43657]

Fantasia!

[HELLBOY20191]

leona is the best

[maginternet2]

Sheryn did it well as she can do belt so easy LIVE. Definitely her vocals are way powerful as heard in here, her voice is clean and direct fearless.

I love Leona Lewis and I followed watching and liked Fantasia Barrino of American Idol. Well done girls...

[j201000]

leona is by far the best .... and had great vocals!

[mrbenjamingell]

As a massive Leona fan I'm going to say I prefer Leona's (naturally), but with Leona and Fantasia having totally different voices I think they both are on par in their own way. They both kept the original jazzy feeling to the song, The other girls voice is way too belty and the arrangement is too modern (In my opinion). But still, Fantasia and Leona <3 :)

[MetroWord]

I like them all. I think Fantasia's voice best matches the style and pace of the music and that apart from voices that her expression best reached out emotionally to the audience. Leona Lewis has an amazingly smooth and lovely voice. Apart from this song I like her voice the most of the three. But not every voice is best for every song. Sheryn has a powerful and striking voice however I think she over did it here. This song has the stamp of melancholy for me but she sang upbeat with sass.

[johnathandoe]

Fantasia ofcourse was the best. The other two girls sound like ametuers.

[hannamile1234]

fuck up sheryn is the best!~

[saintzreji]

leona was no doubt the best among the 3 in singing summertime...super smooth voice and extraordinary wide vocal range!

[brownqat]

Why is Leona and Fantasia's versions lower than the other one?

#1 Leona

#2 Fantasia

#3 that girl

[markleob]

@brownqat simply because sheryn is better..gotta watch her videos to know her better.. and i am sure you will like her too.

[niltash]

Fantasia is pure class. her version was the best of all.

[louie24able]

sheryn is the best jowk

[smartsnehil2008]

Leona is the best

[Dam112]

Fantasia's versin was great

Leona i think as the ebst, prefer her tone and use of head voice throughout - amazing

Sheryn, i didnt like it at all, good singer but for me was all to much for this song and her voice doesnt have nice tone at all

[mgaboangmo]

SHERYN'S VERSION is the BEST!!!

[rylai]

Though Sheryn's rendition was not soulful and calm, it was still unique and powerful that she did staccatos, added solid vibratos and hit G5. The two other ladies did a soulful and calm rendition of Summertime. But I guess, Sheryn's rendition is way more difficult to sing than that of Leona and Fantasia's rendition.

[hiemsa]

i think leona sings this song better than others

[BET93084]

The last woman was doing WAY too much with the song...Now I love Fantasia and I think she did an amazing job but Leona did it for me on this performance. I will say Fantasia's version was more toned down for effect cuz please believe Tasia could have KILLED IT but I give this one to Leona!

[Kitika97]

they are bouth good

[rylai]

sheryn did an awesome staccatos in here. the vibratos were just great and solid.

[rylai]

leona and fantasia did a soulful rendition.

technically, sheryn did it better, her rendition is powerful.

[renzkiecam]

i love sheryn regis' version... :D

[mylast1stkiss]

I love fantasia's version better. Leona Lewis tries to do it the way fantasia did it. The other lady was decent but lets face it, Fantasia is clearly the better singer out of the three. Why do you think she is always invited to sing while the other two are doin whatever it is they do....dont get me wrong they can sing but not like Fantasia

[mahippy]

Fantasia`s clearly the best no competition i mean Leona`s alrite as well, but Fantasia`s clearly the very best

[olixhurt]

FANTASY ANG PANGET MO!HAHA.

[princeblondie]

Leona is TRYING to mimic fantasia. She's doing ALL of the same runs. Stupid bitch.

[kipzaren]

i love the version of the last lady too

[olixhurt]

OHHHH thanks kipzaren she is sheryn regis from Philippines.

[Kessiel]

Fantasia's rendition is the most authentic. Leona's rendition is too ethereal. And I will refrain from commenting on the other.

[jake27990]

leona all the way . hands down no competition . she is amazing . fantasia sounded like a frog being molested and the last singer way just average.

leona 9.5/10

fantasia 7.5/10 at best

sheryn 5/10

[pomgal032293]

FANTASIA FOR SURE!

[mishabby032708]

i think that all of them were VERY great and have talent. they all have their own way of singing and theyre all beautiful.

[2realforthem2]

fantasia was the best

[ajaxmonkey]

Fantasia did it for me I liked leona but Jazz voices get on my nerves at time but leona can sing don't get me wrong

[JustinQ89]

Leona Absolutly own This Song!

[shiori1212]

LEONA!!! SHE's the best!!!!!

[hotbubblesox]

Leona lewis Ox

[jheaux1028]

i love the version of the last lady...

[STOWNZD]

By far I love Leona's version

I also love how Fantasia does hers, but over all Leona was the best for me

The last lady made my ears hurt the whole time, especially how she finished

[MiztaBeyonceHimself]

Fantasia Wins

[jake27990]

leona is the best version ever i loved it !!

fantasia sounded awful.....like a frog being malested and sheryn was good but nowhere near leonas league

[AlterHelen]

Leona by far...

[joshrexrode08]

leonas was the best in my opinion, sheryn was monotone the whole way through and fantasia's voice is like beyonce's it is very annoying at times

[fRitZiAn007]

i personally think sheryn nailed the song.

[misterroyaltee]

fantasia leona then sheryn come on u cant touch fantasia.. leona songs it with no passion but better than the other girl she was singing way 2 loud ear piercing

[kcjovovich]

, leona lewis nailed this song!!! ;-p

[gabi1995]

obv leona !!

[wildgaleva]

wow leona is FAR much better!!!! everytime!

[wy424]

I personally like Fantasia, but they're all great. I just wish people would stop stating their opinions as fact...

[NiddrieFarm]

leona by a mile x

[Schirmatilen]

It's so obvious the first two have talent by the bucket load. Two different interpretations, Fantasia's was a lesson in restraint and full of soul, whereas Leona's was a masterclass in applying facets of Blues and Jazz into a brilliant performance.

Sheryn was just One dimensional. Loud and harsh - nothing more. In fact all her performances are like that. She started loud, the middle was loud and the end was loud!!!

No progression, a very artless performance.

[Endriking]

Leona was better then the others.

[blueatlantis]

love fantasia wow

[xPlatn1um]

Fantasia- Soulful

Leona- Calm

Sheryn- exciting

I personally like Leona, So stop comparing its all based on Opinion, and the Genre of sound that you like.

[mikejohn75ll]

SHERYN blow them away! powerful vocals + unique vocal acrobats = GREAT TALENT!!! aha Crystal Voice of Asia!!!!

[Schirmatilen]

'Powerful vocals' Yes, no one can deny that - but all the time? That's nothing to be proud about!!!

'Unique vocal acrobats' > Who are you kidding? Very amateurish - you clearly haven't been listening to Leona or Fantasia.

Anyway, vocal acrobats and having a powerful voice doesn't make a great singer.

You need to be able to 'connect', you need to be able to interpret songs, you need to know when to show restraint, you need to have technique, the list goes on.

[therealcriticathand]

Sheryn is a cunt.

[youpornerz]

eh ikaw ano? pwet ni sheryn?

[therealcriticathand]

No I said Sheryn is a cunt.

[no1singerAJ]

I think I like Sheryn Regis

[fralippi]

therealcriticathand:

i am not saying that sheryn is the most popular among the three.. OMG.. i was right all along.. you are definitely one of those MORONS who cannot differentiate popularity from singing prowess! OMG.

[therealcriticathand]

I don't like Sheryn's singing. And I don't think she's a good singer. I'm not going to fight you or prove a point. I'm done. I rest my case. And I could careless what you or anyone else think of me or my opinion. I just don't like Sheryn or her singing. The end.

[qwertyuiopz123]

im happy to state that the world doesnt care about u either

[therealcriticathand]

I take back everything I said about Sheryn. She's not a horrible singer...

She's just a cunt.

[mikejohn75ll]

SHERYN nailed the song... Great Vocals... Powerful Voice... Bravo!!!!!!

[fralippi]

@1:28, hey, do you know what a staccato is??@2:38, there's NOTHING wrong.. @2:43, there's NOTHING wrong..@3:58, you're really deaf.. @5:09, she ISN'T sharp (OMG.. do you know what a sharp is??), @5:19, she wasn't flat, @5:21, it was not flat, @5:27, there was nothing wrong.. you are soooooooooo...

[fralippi]

thank you.. as for you, you are a horrible critic.. i'm sorry... but i have to tell the truth.. your ears.. clean them sometimes, ok?

[fralippi]

you may be entitled to your own opinion but it doesn't mean that you can mock anyone with it..

and BTW, you just said it yourself.. we're entitled to our own opinion.. well my opinion is that you are a horrible critic..

sheryn's voice is disgusting and her international claim to success is nothing?? OMG.. what a pitiful analysis.. you don't get acknowledged internationally if you don't even have the simplest qualification of being what you are acknowledged.. how autistic..

[rylai]

Ok faggot, to each his own.

Btw, does she sound like a dying cat?

how'd u know it? fralippi is right, you're so autistic :)), you're also jumping into conclusions, if Sheryn's voice is disgusting, how 'bout you?? haha!, you're making me laugh!, thank you, Mr. Clown =)), tho I pity you friend :P cause what you said didn't make sense. LOLZ

[rylai]

As far as I heard the notes, all of them you mentioned except for the one that I would agree with you were fine.

[judger999]

Fantasia is the WINNER! 2nd? Leona..

[CaJasiaSoFreaky]

FANTASIA  FANTASIA HANDS DOWN!!!

[pboicash9]

fantasia

[fralippi]

ummm.

therealcriticathand and jeralds21?? talk to lea salonga, jose mari chan, mr carpenter, martin nievera, etc..

[fralippi]

or maybe that's what's always ringing in your ear and you blame someone else for that.. go to the doctor.

[fralippi]

whatever major loser..

[fralippi]

"therealcriticathand"??? OMG.. live up to your loser of a username, loser..

[fralippi]

she wont coz she isn't a loser, unlike you. and based on your replies, OMG, is that the way you judge things? cmon.

[fralippi]

the way you SEE it?? you don't LISTEN to it?? OMG.. now we're SEEING things..

[fralippi]

i bet you're deaf..

[fralippi]

OR probably you are one of those MORONS who don't know how to differentiate popularity with singing talent..

[fralippi]

well that proves your diagnosis of meniere's..

[rylai]

hey faggot!, Sheryn sung this song almost 5 years ago, and who the hell you are to say that Sheryn's just a washed up broad way who has no control of her voice? You're from United States, and you have no idea to say that Sheryn has no control in singing. I'm sure that this was the first time you saw her singing. Sheryn didn't sing a rendition of Fantasia or so-close to Fantasia's but she did her own version, she did it with her tradmark in singing, and no doubt, she really knows how to belt.

[rylai]

And yeah, Sheryn did her rendition during her performance in ASAP ( a musical variety) and the one who made the arrangement had something to do with what you didn't like about the interpretation. Don't take her rendition seriously, she sang the song not in a singing contest. Good job for the belter who tried to sing this kind of song.

[fralippi]

OH.. using you lengthy trash talks that souds cool for your meniere's-infected ear against my brief medical diagnosis?? OMG.. what a loserrr..

no matter what, richard carpenters dropped his mouth upon hearing her.. lea salonga blurted an expression of appreciation after listening to her rendition.. your biased comments don't really matter..

BTW, your username should be "therealloserforacriticathand"­.. haha..
