The reason she did not win is that this is a range song, and she doesn't have the range. You notice that she starts in a key which is just a tad low for her voice (so she can hit the higher notes later in the song). Most of the "personalizations" of the song are removing the high notes. And the high notes she does hit, requires "tricks" so that she can hit them (and goes a little flat on them).
If she had picked a song more suited to her voice, she might have won.
@atochagv The reason you gave for not liking Amanda Overmyer are the very reasons other people like her ... as she AMANDACIZES her songs with personalization ... sensational ... really!!!!
OMG, me and my twin sister use too LOVE THIS SONG WHEN WE WERE ABOUT 3 YEARS OLD, and its strange because were fillipino hawaiians, ! OMG I LOVE THIS SONG <3 no matter how old it is
Here is the reason she did not win...too much BAD and excessive personalization of the songs that were not that good, anyway.
And she keeps going the wrong way.
This song sang by the 4 Non Blondes, group even more radical than
Amanda is, sang it to success without excesses and rampants of stardom as Amanda insists in doing!
She will always sing in bars, to small groups that can take her excess as acceptable, unless she STOPS BEING JANIS JOPLIN AND COME DOWN TO EARTH and become HERSELF.
First of all she should just shut the fuck up. that sucked. Yet another bar band chick...yawn. I used to like this song till this. Zombies on the dance floor and all, gimme a fuckin break. Don't quit your day job.
Very engaging with the crowd, a great stage performer. This is a classic "woman" song originally written and sung by the fameous Linda Perry. Fabulous close-ups of Amanda singing this heart-throbbing song ... awesome ... you had to be there to get the full impact. Chills run up your spine!
she did awqesome made the song her own and still rocked alot of the really hard parts fuckin awesome
