The Journey to "Don't Waste The Pretty"

[YOJANINA]

PHILIPPINES LOL



[1bestmusic2010isback]

sucks jive didn't do much to promote her.

[drumplayerforever]

She should have won A.I...But there is much to the notion that taking the long way back, makes the journey sweeter...She is truly "awesome"...Orianthi knows real talent, & the two of them together...Well it's "Magic"...GO LADIES GO!!!!!

[TheBbb03]

I'm your fan number 1 in Panamá. Love U

[TheBbb03]

Simplemente espectacular!!!!! Awesome!!! Love U

[kamukhas]

0:08 PHILIPPINES!!!! <3

[JaneJokerCroft]

Orianthi is the best!!!!

[Cinntillicious]

Love it!

[kEvSpLaT]

This song is the theme for Monte Carlo! starring Selena Gomez and Leighton Meester!

[DarknessMessiah91]

Love the song and video and singer...one question: Does Orianthi also do backup vocals on this version of the song because I see clips of Orianthi recording vocals here?

[bradpackblue]

@DarknessMessiah91 I think she did...the guitar solo is wicked

[ManuelaGuns]

@DarknessMessiah91 yes, she does!

[Angelic750]

I love this song!!!

[rockfan621]

It's a shame this song didn't do better. There's nothing about this song that leads me to believe that it couldn't be in top 40 radio.

[biggy484]

the guitar parts at 1:07-1:10 are great. it compliments the mood and rhythm. and they're repeated! along with the solo and killer vocals,its just a great song.5* ;-)

[baddchavez]

im 100% mexicano,i want to thank all the white people that have supported this latin talent,the latin race,suck! in supporting their own, i dont give a f u c k if you say i dont have money, you have money to buy drugs,its not about being racial,it about watching one of your most talented latina,jam. you too my kenfolks,we buy your f u c k e n music,where you guy at. instead of being brown and proud, its brown and sad,

[baddchavez]

this has to be the best solo of the year,male/female.

[VermontAngie]

I love this soooo much, I wish this would have been the single. And how come this girl does not get pomoted as she should??? She got an enormous talent.

[misery19792002]

how come this song is not in the charts? and while that no talent fame whore miley cyrus is selling millions? shame! well, just like the song... DON'T WASTE THE PRETTY!

[raphasampaiom]

Love it

[AZNewsWatcher]

I'm currently sending messages to my fav radio stations - to encourage them to play this superlative song of Allison's! We just saw her, Orianthi & Adam in concert - and it was FANTASTIC! But, its the lyrics which are so kick-ass...Girls/Women: DON'T STAY IN TOXIC RELATIONSHIPS! Remember....YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL !!

[Angieallis1249]

SHE IS AMAZING!!!! LOVE HER VOICE

[mjlktc21]

OMFG I SAW MYSELF! :)))))

[Ruben1Show]

Allison serious needs more promotion!!!!!

[agamick]

From the first time I saw her on Idol Ive loved this girl. Shes just a fantastic talent! For me Allison is the best from any Idol season!!!!

[Joselyn559]

@agamick i agree,,rare,unique vocal!!

[Ruben1Show]

i love Allison she is so amazing we need to request her music in the radio stations hopefully she makes this single her big break

[qaf714]

this girl is good i saw here on SYTYCD and i thought she was amazing

Is she a new artist and y don't i ever hear her on the radio stations i listen to

and love her red hair and love Orianthi

[thisisthesanesofme]

@qaf714 Yeah, this is only her third single. And I don't know why radio keeps snubbing her. Hopefully they won't ignore this release. And yes, I love her flaming red hair as well. Hahaha. =)

[Ruben1Show]

@qaf714 she is very amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bazzingaification]

doz eny1 else agree dat she shud release dis as the official video??

[Ruben1Show]

@bazzingaification I do hopefully she does!!!!!!!!

[sjslapshot22]

haha allison your BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL BEAUTIFUL!! Lol xD love this video

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

Catch Allison and Orianthi performing DWTP on "So You Think You Can Dance" on Thursday 7/29/2010

[Ruben1Show]

@MidAgeAllisonFan what did u think of her performance that night?

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

@Ruben1Show I thought she looked fantastic and her interaction with Orianthi was fantastic. However vocally she wasn't nearly as strong as her performances of this song earlier in the year. IMO the way her vocals have evolved through all of these live shows she's been doing has taken away the power and charm of her original song. She now adds too many runs and flourishes to the original lyrics. Yet I still think she's awesome and is destined to be a big star!!!

[salviangelino]

The Glam Nation Tour People suck BIG TIME!!!! I missed Allison's performance at the OC Fair in Costa Mesa, CA. They only let her sing FOUR songs before the OFFICIAL TIME of the concert. By 7:30 Allison was done when the ticket said the concert was supposed to start at 7:30. Is Jive stopping her from getting bigger? I don't get it. She's so talented. She should sign with univisionmusic or someone who can make sure she becomes what she deserves to be: a world super star!

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

@salviangelino I'm sorry that you had such a bad experience last night, however it makes me feel better that I didn't attend. This also now justifies my not heading to OC tonight. Mostly I had decided to wait and see Allison play a full set as a headliner. People keep ragging on Jive for how they are handling Allison. I just can't believe that they don't want Allison selling more records for them. Maybe it's because she's creating more buzz then the headliners and someone doesn't like it.

[Ruben1Show]

@salviangelino same thing happened to me so i just bought new ticket for the show the night after

Allison is so amazing!!!!!!!!!!

[Crazy6CA]

I never saw that interview with Randy Jackson at 1:19

[gatito2166]

my mother bought me this CD. "here you go, so u know how talented people from ur country are" lol.... 

[370CC]

@gatito2166 Lol sweet :) Your mother rocks eheh

[prMLA01]

@gatito2166 That's awesome, your mother is great.

[avduo]

Consummate artist. Ranks with the best!

[avduo]

She was awesome on AI. She's even better now. Only Allison and Adam have it all but somehow America didn't get it.

[LittleOatttts]

jives biggest mistake was mking Friday I'll be over you the first single. any other song would have been a smash hit. like just like you shoulda been first. I mean it's a great song Friday, butdoesnt show off the real star, her voice!

[370CC]

@LittleOatttts You're so damn right! FIBOU is not single material.. I like it but it just doesn't work. It should have been an~y other song.. Maybe Pieces cause that song reminds me of Use Somebody by Kings of Leon which is so awesome! IDK, we'll see. Allison has so much talent and I know that she's going to be huge :D

[salviangelino]

I love this video.

[Ruben1Show]

this is awesome!!!!!!!

[93jev]

A FREAKIN MAZIIIIIIINNNNNNNGGGGG LOVE ALLISON SOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lizzybellinger]

Allison is MY role model..... she has a beautiful. i love her!!!! she is really inspiring

[thisisthesanesofme]

Who is that one person who missed the 'like' button? Pfft.

[NFGfan2]

WOW This is so goood!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Crazy6CA]

Does anybody know this single sales?

[gladyola65]

@Crazy6CA Sales are currently unknown. TBD

[thisisthesanesofme]

@gladyola65 @Crazy6CA Actually the combined sales of the album version and the one featuring Orianthi currently stands at 4, 000.

[Crazy6CA]

@thisisthesanesofme Really? 4, 000? Damn... That's so frustrating and so unfair :(

She deserves so much more than that!

[thisisthesanesofme]

@Crazy6CA Yeah I know. It's because her fanbase is strong, but not big enough. She's only sold 102, 000 copies of JLY so far. Jive doesn't work hard enough to push Allison. Allison gets little promo on live television, one of the key factors to getting your music out. She needs to perform at a big awards show if Jive is gonna let her do one off performances like that. Jive sucks at promoting. =(

[hattrick863]

@thisisthesanesofme you know Allison got tons of promo more than most new artists do. Numerous live tv appearances. Jive may not have been great at promoting but Allison is terrible at self promoting as well. People are not connecting with Allison, it's just not her time yet. As far as sales go her own fanbase did not step up. I mean 4K sales, that terrible.

[thisisthesanesofme]

@hattrick863 Okay, maybe not NEW artists, more like artists who've come off fresh from the Idol tour. Y'see, when I said Jive sucks at promoting, I should've made the comparison to RCA. See, RCA got Adam on the AMAs (although that backfired) and had him crack Europe as well. But the thing about Jive is that they just wait for miracles to happen, like for the artists' debut singles to hit #1. And they don't happen always.

[hattrick863]

@thisisthesanesofme fair enough but people make it sound they don't do anything. They can't promote something that isn't within range of top 50 radio or is not selling. She came off the biggest launching pad. However she probably did get lost in the idol shuffle a little. We'll see what happens with this single, it's not fully done yet.

[370CC]

@hattrick863 At some point I gree with U, but Jive should promote her more. What about Europe? People adore her here, but her CD is not available in a lot of countries yet.

+ when was her last performance on TV? A long time ago..

What about scars? She only did a performance on Idol and it was on a crappy episode! IDK, I got my doughts about Jive. But we'll see :) There's still time.

[thisisthesanesofme]

@hattrick863 I know. I know Jive's working. But I don't think they are putting in 100% into Allison's career. What she needs is promo, promo, promo. If fans could get their favourite artists on TV shows I'm sure she'd be busy as hell right now. I just hope she's widening her fanbase on the GlamNation Tour.

[hattrick863]

@thisisthesanesofme Allison has been on tv multiple times. She's obviously not top priority and until she sells, she will never be. Imo the Glam tour is not really helping with exposure that much, I mean the vast majority of people know who she is and her single and CD sales have not skyrocketed however I do think she is in the right place for now.

[thisisthesanesofme]

@hattrick863 Well apparently multiple times isn't enough. Exactly, Jive's artists sell by their name more than promo. Which sucks. Allison puts in a 100% into her every performance. While Jive.. Urgh.

[luvarchie4ever]

I like this version more than the main version :). This song is awesome!!! Love Allison :)

[bigelowrocks]

I love this..she is so freakin amazing. I. LOVE. HER.

[kellyfan25]

awesome! I can't wait for the music video to come out. this is awesome!

[thisisthesanesofme]

@kellyfan25 Jive says it depends on how well this single does. So we need DWTP to be a hit! =) But it's nice to see Allison getting some radio airplay. We just need to keep requesting as fans. LET'S GOOOOOO!!! Woohooo!

[kellyfan25]

@thisisthesanesofme oh okay. I know that the single is going to do great. Allison is amazing. I wish I could request the song. I don't get any radio stations that would have her on where I live. it sucks.

[thisisthesanesofme]

@kellyfan25 Well DWTP is getting some radio love. It's slowly creeping up the charts and it already hit the Top 10 in Singapore's official radio charts. But she REALLY REALLY needs to crack America and Europe.

[kellyfan25]

@thisisthesanesofme well, that's good. I'm glad. I know that it's going to do good. Allison is awesome.

[thisisthesanesofme]

@kellyfan25 Well. FINGERS CROSSED it'll be her breakout hit like WWFM did for Adam! =)

[kellyfan25]

@thisisthesanesofme I think it will. this song is awesome and a lot of people like it. it's going to to awesome.

[thisisthesanesofme]

@kellyfan25 Yeah, it is after all, pretty radio-friendly. And the radio's a big part of the charts and it'll help Allison get more listeners. I hope radio DJs don't ignore this one, I really hope.

[kellyfan25]

@thisisthesanesofme yeah I know. I hope they don't ignore it.

[Ruben1Show]

Awesome

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

Yes this is an awesome song. The album original is awesome too. With all the new attention focused on DWTP people need to remember that her whole damn album kick's ass!!!!!!! Buy "Just Like You" and you will be amazed............

[blondeRus]

Allison & Ori...You girls

did a great job on

don't waste the pretty!

the video ROCKS ;)

[ARabidPony]

OK PEOPLE...there's an old saying

Money talks, Bullsh*t walks!!!

Which means if YOU have not downloaded

DON'T WAST THE PRETTY off i tunes for 99 cents

GO DO IT NOW!!!!

That's how you show REAL SUPPORT for ALLISON!

[dennez67]

Man,what a combination!!! "it's not cute anymore"says Carlos S.

[Nayera09]

[pottercito7]

Allison Iraheta is an amazing, down-to-earth girl with an awesome voice!

[Guanacopower]

Perfection at it's fullest.

[joshl87]

don't forget to buy the single on iTunes.. only 99 cents.. spread the word and help out allison

[Duffywarwick1]

This song is SO good, it deserves to be in the top 10 at least! Sadly it probably won't even reach top 50 :/ Radio needs room for all the rappers, Justin Bieber and Ke$ha songs! (I like Ke$ha, but this song is much better than her sing-talking.)

[Sahsouha1]

That girl is freaking amazing..why isn't she ruling the Rock World?...is her managment sucks or what?!

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

@Sahsouha1 I think this video is finally a step in the right direction!

[IWearAHood]

She's just adorable.

[blondeRus]

Allison, YOU ROCK GIRL!!!

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

Great video Allison.

[MidAgeAllisonFan]

I HATE TECHNOLOGY!!!!!!!!

[KellyAna414]

LOVE this song! this is my favorite off of her album :)

[Joselyn559]

3 things that Allison possessed that a young singer like her should be dying to have :1]HER KILLER VOICE 2]STUNNING BEAUTY  3]SHE GOT THE ATTITUDE-HARD WORKING,DETERMINATION,DEDICATI­ON,she knows exactly what she's doing.

[erikaazul]

I love it! It's great to see all the behind the scenes stuff we don't usually get a chance to see! I think it ties in really well with the song! Not gonna lie, I also teared up a little. Just seeing everything Allison has done just this past year and seeing what a long way she has come. I'm so damn proud of her! Allison you rock and I will always support you no matter what!

[Joselyn559]

@erikaazul so totally agree!!!!

[snanygirl]

I'm so Freaking Proud of her!!!!

[ChrisYogia]

It made me teared up... I love it, love the song, love the voice, love the guitar parts, love Allison and Orianthi^^

[sueyen]

[huzza18]

orianthi does a pretty good job on that song . my opinion .

[370CC]

@huzza18 Of course! Withouth Orianthi this song would not be the same :) Damn.... This song rocks!!
