  • You've got that something that keeps me so off balance....baby you're a challenge let's explore your talent <)

  • This video was shot at my wedding during the reception. It wasn't planned.

    The band knew the song and I asked Kara to get up and sing it.

    Shannonnn can you please link back to my original upload or add the information I have on my page.

  • @garykordan That explains her comments at the end of the song.

  • KARA YOU ARE THE BEST

    I LOVE YOU

    AND YES YOU CAN SING

    GREAT VOICE!

  • can't believe she wrote the different song i never expect..

  • another shitty song by this talentless hack.

  • @JonnoThomas did you really just say kara dioguardi is talentless....

  • @Steve87421 God you're duped.

  • she is so talented.she also wrote taking chances by celine dion:)

  • Okay, I must admit I don't particularly like Kara as a person (Blame my idol-watching habits :P), but she IS a pretty talented songwriter and I always hated Ashlee's nasally tone when she sang this, so Kara pretty much just blew her out of the water.

  • Comment removed

  • @clissew1 cuz ashlee cant sing!!

  • Ashee is much better IMO but this is fantastic :D

  • love her version better than ashlee's..

  • Not only is she an amazing singer, she is also a talented songwriter. She has written some of the best songs performed by some of todays hottests artists. What suprises me is that she perfers to write than cut an album and thats what I love about her. She's willing to write music for others and sing whenever she gets the chance.

  • wow hope I can look as good as she does when I'm 40!

  • shes SO much better than Ashlee is live!!!

  • I agree with TheChristy15. I didn't know it either.

  • she wrties a lot of good songs

  • Love it!!!

  • Not digging the outfit here lol. I like Ashlee's version better, but maybe that's because its the studio version. Not my favorite song for Kara to sing. :/

    Haha, is that Mike taping her?

  • OMG i didn't know she wrote this song!!!!! wow she is even MORE amazing than i thought she was:D

    <3 GO KARA!!

  • gr8 love song by her!

  • does Kara remind anyone else of Leighton Meester..

  • @UROCKMYSOX249 dude I KNOW right! when I first saw her i was like WOAH:D

  • Geez she writes everything!! Haha

  • @lolzgirlmorgan she really does.

  • @UROCKMYSOX249 haha (:

  • I love veerything she writes have to say she sings it great!

  • wow she has such a rockish voice! she was meant to sing every song she's ever written...i just can't believe she didn't make it that far...she has such as amazing voice!

  • aww kara is actually pretty endearing. interesting though it seems she actually has something in common with that brat ashlee simpson - that whole limpwristed thing, after the song was done.

  • ahhh i didnt know she wrote this!!!!!!!! i thought ashlee wrote about her boyfriend! haha kara seems drunk :)

  • I hate that Ashlee's show made it look like Ashlee was the writer! This girl definetly doesn't get enough credit... love kara!!!!!

  • wow, she's amazing. *-*

  • she can't sing

  • @jesusluvr07 check out some of her other videos before u say that

  • @lovebeyonce44 Alright I did. She can't sing.

  • @jesusluvr07 i agree with you lmfao. i feel mean though but i think it's the truth.

  • That was brilliant! The only thing wrong with this is that Kara Dioguardi is too good. She makes Ashlee Simpson sound dull and soulless by comparison, and I've always liked Ashlee's version!

  • @its4it A screeching cat getting hit by a car makes Ashlee Simpson sound dull and soulless by comparison

  • I think its easier to name songs that she hasnt written. lol.! I mean, even We Rock from camp rock. wow. shes really amazing and she bestroyed Bikini girl.!

  • she wrote this one?!!! WOW!!! 

  • do a hoe down!

  • did she write this?! she has written so much!

  • @ldi321 yes she did

  • shes really good i luv her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • love herr<33333

  • why don't she sing all her own songs ? her voice just amazing

  • no she didnt write it!!!!ashley simpson did!!!!

  • @Iluvadamlambert13 nope sorry kara wrote this song they just tried to pass it off as if ashlee wrote it

  • @Iluvadamlambert13 Fail...Ashley simpson doesn't have enough brains to write a decent song. I actually love this song, but I've always thought a better artist should sing it.

  • i love her  i would do anything to meet her & i relle mean that! and im not a creepy fan i just relllee wnna meet her!<33

  • Thanks for sharing. Tell her that she needs to put out her own stuff. Way KOOL. Again Thanks for sharing this.

  • She wrote many hit songs for artists like kelly clarkson, cobra starship, hilary duff, and sooo many other artists. I wish songwriters got more credit :/

  • kara is amazing duuudeee

  • This song used to be my favorite!!! :) Good job Kara!!

  • i LOVE this VERSION!!! Kara's GOOOOOOOOOOD! :D

  • Ha, I love how creepy Joe Simpson tried to pass his daughter off as a "songwriter" in her ridiculous reality show. Ashlee Simpson is a joke. Kara D however, is quite talented in many respects.

  • omg some of you guys are harsh...for a start bloody video shot live always sounds like crap and is something i avoid at any cost. Had this been mixed I'm sure it would have sounded better. She hadn't sung with this band....I've been singing for years and still hate getting up with bands I haven't sung with before. I think she's great.

  • Just posted another performance from our wedding in the video response section.

    With all the discussion about Kara singing during our reception I thought you'd like to see Lisa Loeb covering 'First Day of My Life' during our ceremony.

  • Hated it!!

  • I just didnt feel it.. I couldnt really process it.. I felt like you werent part of the song. and I am confused what sort of artist your trying to be.

  • Not sure how this video ended up over here but I love all the lively discussion!

    This was shot at my wedding.

    Kara is a close friend and our band knew how to play Pieces Of Me, so, I basically pushed Kara on stage to sing.

    No planning, no rehearsal, no warm up.

    Kara is a pro and great friend!

    Ok, carry on with all the debate.

  • soo bad live lol!

  • Someone call the fashion police...and noise police.

  • Interesting what passes for singing and songwriting these days. Pathetic.but LOL too, according to mood.

  • what song is this? pieces of Shit?

  • incredible! she's an amazing song writer and a singer. how come she doesn't have her own album? she should have.. :D

  • she is such a great songwriter and singer. ♥ her

  • lurv it so much..

  • wow i never knew she wrote this wow shes really amazing

  • @shannonnnAllennn - Writing 'no copyright infringements intended' doesn't exempt you from obeying copyright laws. It's like 'whoops' didn't mean to ding your car, so I'm not responsible.

  • @Estiallina lol what the user's trying to say is that he/she just put this up for entertainment purposes...not to take away the fans of the original source instead. Or were u just joking? =/

  • @akidogirl No, I wasn't kidding. Copyright has nothing to do with drawing fans - it has to do with ownership rights. There is no connection. If the person doesn't want to detract from the original, then they shouldn't post it, right? Then everyone would have only the original, copyrighted version to view. I'm not the copyright police, though, but it's meaningless to apologize for one's crimes while committing them anyway - like somehow asking for pre-forgiveness grants absolution.

  • @akidogirl 'entertainment purposes'?! Isn't that the purpose of YouTube. Everything here is for entertainment purposes.

  • i love kara!!!!! i want to be just like her!!!!

  • best version ever!

  • I had no idea she wrote this... I love the song! I like it better on Kara!

  • @Rrrrrrrrroxy I'm sorry to say but Kara did not write Pieces of Me. This song was written not by one person but it was written by three people and there names are Christian Karlsson, Pontus Winnberg, and Klas Åhlund.

  • @msteacy1975 I'm sorry but are you retarded? How about you do your research. It was indeed written by three people. Ashlee Simpson, John Shankman, and KARA DIOGUARDI! I don't know what the hell song you are talking about but Pieces of Me was in fact co-written by Kara DioGuardi. Just fyi.

  • @sublimebutterfly Good on you for putting msteacy1975 straight although I think you mean John Shanks.

  • @its4it John Shanks is what I meant. I suppose that is what happens when trying to talk and type at the same time. My bad.

  • @sublimebutterfly Ok here Christian Karlsson, Pontus Winnberg, Klas Åhlund

    Source(s):

    wikipedia That is my source. What is your source saying Kara had a part in writing the song. I did my research that is why I posted what I did. Also I'm gicing you source so pleae give me yours. I could be wrong and if I am I'm truely sorry.

  • @msteacy1975 I reckon you must be pulling everyone's legs because I have the CD single of Ashlee singing this and it says that she and Kara wrote it with John Shanks. FYI, I too have been to Wikipedia and it says the same.

  • @Rrrrrrrrroxy You would be AMAZED at all the songs she has written.... She also said she didn't think this sounded good on her (Kara) but Ashley had the raspy thing going and made it her own.

  • she wrote this?!?! wow!! she's amazing! she wrote many songs for so many artists!!

  • @dontcutdadreads well ashlee did, like ALL songs have co writers and karas a co writer on the tack

  • Comment removed

  • amazing song, great lyrics really push it and the the beat is fun

  • I love Karaaaaa

    vec vazdhoo albanian vajze :P

  • I hate when a perfectly good looking woman who can sing, doesn´t give out the songs she write herself :D

  • I never liked this song at all, but I had no idea this was written by someone who is actually really talented . I enjoy listening to her sing songs she wrote for sleazy artists because she gives it that real emotion that can only come from the person who wrote it, that and she's just a great singer.

  • @svengali691 I agree. The song always sounds best when the writer sings it because of the emotion that comes with it. Then again, sometimes the artist that sings the song they didn't write feels and carries the emotion, and delivers the song just as powerful (or even more powerful) than the writer him/herself. :b

  • at first i thought they were spoofing the ashlee simpson snl incident

  • she wrote the song!

  • @hellokittygirl4ev123 this is by Ashley Simpson

  • @hellokittygirl4ev123

    Yes she wrote this song wih ashlee simpson!

  • @lucasboden look ups some of her other stuff before you say that shes incredible try strangers and angels or lost

  • LOL she is annoying. out of tune

  • did she write this?

  • @lilsis yup

  • Comment removed

  • you mean everyone loves her. she rocks

  • god this song sounds so familiar anyone know who sings it . . . originally i mean

  • ashlee simpson. :))

  • cool thx

  • sure haha

  • shes the original one but she sold it to ashlee simpson but its still her song cuz she wrote it :)

  • o ok thx

  • ur welcome

  • avril leveenge

  • nvm ashlee simpson

  • ashlee simpson! haha i was thinking the same thingg!

  • did she also compose this song??

  • @XxdripperxX yep2x

  • @jherl2009 wow!

    kara got a really good taste in music composition.. i like her songs...

  • She sings with much more passion than Ashlee, and it's a live friends' show, so she's bound to go out and have a little bit more fun...

  • Her voice is ok but I never did like the song.

  • this is.. lets just say no her best!

  • nice. I like it better than ashlee's version... she should make a studio version

  • btw hate her!.

  • Ashlee Simpson's song?? i think Kara sings better than Ashlee..

  • AHH MY EARS ARE BLEEDING!!

  • TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • love her - love it!

  • Comment removed

  • TERRIBLE!

  • this song was meant for ashlee.

  • How is it meant for Ashlee? Kara wrote the song =p

  • Comment removed

  • ok i dont really like her on AI cause she can be pretty cocky,but i see why she is.she is a preety great singer,and amazing songwriter

  • She's so talented...some of you people need to take a boxing class or something to get out your silly anger!!! Get lives people!!!!!!! She is a great singer...Ashlee is a good singer too!

  • Get a life. Then i guess you must probably get one too!

  • Kara should leave that song to Ashlee Simpson. Ashlee has better vocals.

  • Comment removed

  • she looks a bit wasted.

  • ok why did she give it to ashlee??? so she could lipsync it???... kara should've given it to somen better than ashlee... this song sounds amazing with someone that can realy sing like her..... well I gues it's just for the money... :S

  • Exactly. The industry is all about the money. Kara may not be as famous as any of the artists she writes songs for, but she is probably much wealthier than them. She is amazing. I love her so much.

  • @ gabirat

    Kara is a mediocre singer. she can't do all the styles, just like no one else can do them all. Myriah Carey wouldn't sing a rock song bcuz her voice is not for that genre, so Kara is forced to sell her songs off to the Artist that is interested in singing them. Ashlee wanted to sing it bcuz it fit her age group at the time

    think outside the box, man--- it's not always what it seems. the song has to suite the Artist needs and attitude on stage.

  • @FTWyousuck Ashlee is one of the worst vocalists of all time, reguardless of genre. I have no idea what your response has to do with what Gabirat said.

    An appropriate response would be something like "Kara is a songwriter, not a popstar. She writes and sells songs because that's what she's good at and that's what she wants to do"

  • @ Caelstraz ROTFLMFAO

    thee audacity!! the nerve of your arrogant skull

    first of all troll master-- i didn't say Ashlee was a good singer. secondly goober, Yes--my reply was dead-on accurate pertaining to gabirat's post. Plz learn to fucken READ.

    i disclosed what i know about "song placement" bc i'm a music producer and song writer.

    and last but not forgotten--don't be a douche by attempting to teach people anything from your brain

  • @FTWyousuck Wel I certainly hope you can write and produce songs better than you speak (or type, in this case). Please learn to spell and use words correctly.

    By immediately saying that Kara is a mediocre singer, you are implying that Ashlee is better (which anyone with ears will tell you is false). Kara isn't "forced" to sell her songs to anyone. At this point in time she COULD make it in the music industry if she chose to do so but she likes being a songwriter now.

  • ignores the pillock in charge of the auto pilot douchecraft in motion

  • mmmm agree with you taht would be the right response ; ).... I thought about that too... and that's why I wonder why didn't she give it to someone better??.... I guess it's just a job....

  • I don't know about this song in particular but I know a lot of the time she writes songs for particular artists. For example when she wrote stuff for Paris Hilton (shudder) she was actually in the studio working with her. From what she's said in interviews, it's a combination of things - yes, it's her job and it's money, but also she just enjoys writing songs and trying to help people out with their music, even if that forces her to work with some of the Paris types in the industry.

  • PS: ashlee can't even sing a birthday song.....

  • @FTWyousuck Gabriat asked why Kara didn't sing the song herself or at least give it to someone with talent and you started going on about styles and age groups and stage presence which doesn't answer his/her question at all, because Ashlee has none of that.

    Well, I guess she does have the age group down. But there's obviously more to it since - last I checked - she isn't the only teenage girl to sing pop songs.

    PS - I believe the phrase you are looking for is "last but not least"

  • actually i was being brilliant-- oopsies! my bad :p

    see, i was the one replying to your silly little insignificant arguments, so i made sure i didn't forget to chastise you correctly. thus, i myself felt the desire to edify you with polite words

    "and last but not forgotten..."

    you really are a work of art, aren't ya? no one cares about lower case letters except YOU. get a freakin' life man. i bet you struggle reading actual lyrics written by true artist, huh? its a shame but there you are LOLz

  • @FTWyousuck A piece of work? I wasn't picking on your typing skills, I was picking on your misuse of words and phrases which are two completely different things (which you did before I even entered the conversation, so your excuse doesn't hold much water).

    The reason I hate on Ashlee is because she's a talentless hack that was basically handed a free singing career and still managed to screw it up. One of the worst live artists of all time, hands down. It's amazing what some studio equipment

  • @FTWyousuck can do. While your little producing/writing story is very cute it has nothing to do with the situation since Kara obviously CAN sing this song. She has a very good voice - this is probably one of her worst-sounding because of the setup. There's plenty of clips around that showcase her voice much better. I love how you are telling me to "calm down" when you are the one throwing phrases around like "momma's boy", "killer major boner", and "unless you're GAY!"

  • @FTWyousuck I think if anything *you* are the one with the "boner" for Ashlee and don't like the fact that she is worse than a 2nd rate singer, she's a pretty face who was handed a record deal and can't do anything right but lip-sync. Oh wait - she can't even do that right!

    I won't dignify the rest of your message with a response since you don't even have the guts to say it outside of a PM.

    Oh, and don't bother trying another "UR A GAY PUSSY" insult, I'm not even a guy. Good effort though.

  • @Caelstraz i know im butting in but seriously shut up! Ashley sucks but she is way better then Kara at singing, maybe not at writing but DEFINITELY SINGING now just stop this useless comment fight its ridiculous

  • lesbian...gay, its all the same shiznit

    Once again, you're fishing in the wrong pond, sweetheart. I still don't know what your yapping about. anyone with any level of reading skills can clearly see that you're a creeping troll master looking for a hot date :p

  • @FTWyousuck So first you think you're a songwriter and a producer, now you think I want a date with you? (Or Kara, I can't tell. Your horrible grasp of the English language makes it difficult to understand you)

    Either way, how delusional can you get? Yes, I want a date with some pedo guy from the internetz with no taste in music. That sounds like fun, alright.

    Try thinking with your brain instead of your dick sometime. Might really come in handy.

  • i wonder if ur pretty or not. this is special. don't be so serious, girl. but u r a little funny. probably 39, sassy brunette, looking for her feisty hero--i know the type LOL!

    aw, did u get touched? i'm sorry. actually i'm not attracted to Kara, she's so not my type. she's too pushy and bitchy kitty.

    hey, i could prove im a singer songwriter/ music producer, but i'm enjoying this party! hahaha!

    don't try to cock block, you clever chick ;)

    ciao bella donna

  • You really are delusional - who am I trying to cockblock? You? I'll pass, thanks.

    You obviously don't know the type (i.e. someone with even the slightest bit of brainpower) because that read of yours is dead wrong. But go on, keep trying!

    I'm not surprised you're not attracted to Kara, she's what, a good 20 years too old for you? Keep on talking about how sexy teenagers are, women really like that.

  • haha you have no idea sweetie. you're extremely single, aren't ya? i can tell. hmmm i sense a bit of jealousy in your attitude, perhaps due to your age these sexy 18 year olds are really making you sick. when you were that age you wanted older guys to get with you so shut the hell up liar! hahahaha

    isn't that usually what goes thru 16, 17 and 18 year old's mind? SEX?!! hell even younger than that! i'm just stating the facts honey, i didn't invent women, GOD did :)

    thank the LORD! LOL

  • Yes, every 16-18 year old wants to have sex with some delusional 30-something creepy man who thinks he's some hot shot producer. Do us all a favor and get back to jacking off to those Ashlee and Miley videos you enjoy so much.

  • i'd rather use your myspace pics, sugarlips. smooch!

    got anything good on facebook or do you prefer sending them via yahoo? i won't tell! ;)

    rotflmfao

  • nothing wrong with that...older guys are fun. ; )

  • smooch! yeah baby... [ said like Austin Powers ]

  • I couldnt help but notice... your a fucking faggot. Your name is FTWyousuck and your telling somoene else to get a life. better luck tommorow nerd.

  • @ 410 Reasons Sissies Linger aka 410RSL

    do shut the fuck up and stick to your pillock abilities and pathetic second nature of dumbass :p

    rotflmfao

  • Comment removed

  • apparently you can't resist being a precious little pillock

    you do coherently understand what a douche bag is exactly? if not ask, your Mom. then after you learn what it is, use if to rinse out your stupidity :p

  • Your a faggot.

  • @mojopin70 Your a fucking d-bag you are recycled throw away crap.

  • i wonder why she could never make it as an artist herself

  • @SamE1iot When it comes to pop music a huge part of breaking out is sheer luck - having the right song at the right time, catching on with the right demographic. She's proven that she's more than talented enough, and if she decided to pursue a singing career I'm sure she would succeed. But at this point in time she is very happy as a writer, she's said in interviews that she doesn't have (or want) the Hollywood lifestyle, and she loves doing what she does. :)

  • KARA DIOGUARDI is hosting a jingle contest and she might judge my folgers jingle! Im SO SCARED! Its on my channel if you wanna see but I freak out every time I see her on american idol. o___o

  • i luv
