[jegerdingud]

Your voice is so amazing, and I rarely hear covers of this song that I like, because I think it takes a lot to live up to the original. But you totally nailed it! Congratulations on having a massive talent. (:

[DoRayMeFa]

Hello, first-video-I've-watched-in-20­11 !

I saw this linked from facebook...

I love the gentle treatment you give this song,

all the more impressive given the power of your voice when you want to belt!

I appreciate how this song pushes constantly forward... doesn't give you much chance to rest and breathe(?) Seems like it requires more "persistence"--not exactly a musical word--than the average song.

Happy 2011 Shan!

[shanmalaika1]

@DoRayMeFa YAAAAAAAAAAY! thank you so much! your comments are always so analytical and really shows you paid attention which makes me so happy! thanks a lot!

[DoRayMeFa]

Aw @shanmalaika1 I wasn't just "paying attention"....

I was APPRECIATING what you've done,

in the video and the years before.

#ShanDaBomb!

[JordanJayyy]

how do you have headphones in but we can hear the music??

[RomneyErUption]

@JordanJayyy

Not rocket science, She's singing along to the track in her head, then she'll put the voice recording into a computer, and add the track over the top, audio synchronizing. I do it with my drum covers.

P.s. this is better than the original!

[shanmalaika1]

@RomneyErUption thank you so much! and thanks for explaining haha you did a better job than i would have :p

[Angielyrica]
