This song calls for sadness and desperation in the voice and I don't feel it in Kelly's version. Too lazy and jazzy ... listen to Carrie's original version and you'll believe that she's been desperately pining for that someone to call her all her life to no avail.
you don't get the point of what people are comparing here...it's the emotions and conviction that people feel when listening to Kelly's version that they don't get from Carrie's ....many people who gave comments here seem to feel Kelly's better ...
@shado474 Idk what note it is but i know it was the best note in the song and made me wave my hand and establish her as one of the best singers of our generation.lol
I love this version. I heard Carrie's version and I just don't care for her voice. It's just my opinion - she has a nasally twang. I wish I could buy Kelly's version. She has both the vulnerability and power in her voice. I was reminded of how great a singer KC was when she did the Star Spangled Banner better than most ever sang (with the exception of the amazing Whitney Houston). Does anyone know how I can buy this version??
Kelly has it all. Lots of singers today can belt out note even high ones and can do lots of vocal gymnastics but some just don't sound good!! Kelly can sing the hell out any song but also has a rich tone that is so pleasing.. American Idol got it right the first time for sure. Without the credibility Kelly gave the Idol show we may not have been luck to get the other great talent that did follow
omfg! this was amazing, so much emotion, i felt every word she say, i cant stop listening to it. and for all you haters fuck youu, you wouldnt know talent if it fuckin slapped you across the face, love you kelly <3
Carries amazing but kelly is almost untouchable.. And I like the fact it's powerful..showcases how good she is..she has the talent and she's showcasing it
I see Kelly needs to resort to her typical SCREAMING to get the job done..k..just had to take out my headphones..way to go Kelly...blew the speakers again..no wonder she is NUMBER 2..as in SHIT.
I don't usually care about other people's comments but this time I will say FUCK you and go suck your dick ..and eat your shit and vomit and then choke on it...
This is the type of song lyrically that should be sung with soul..I saw Carrie Underwood do it ..I felt no emotion at all ...Kelly brought the emotion of the lyrics out..I now feel and love it..just don't think this type of song is for Carrie..
i think carries version was missing something. i think this song fits Kellys' vocals a little more. i like carries version tho. but if i had to pick, i would choose this one.
@ottoman141516 carrie's version is too mechanical.. with the lyrics being as heart breaking as it is, kelly's bluesy version really brings out the emotion in the song..
@junkybox YES!!!!! a lot more shades in the song than carries version.... carries version is so ..... ughh whats the word..... flatline.... it doesnt change, its constant throughout. Kelly puts variety in the song
Ojalá la gente dejara ya de comparar Kelly y Carrie. Chicos, no hay ninguna razón por la que valga la pena pelearse. Para mí, ambas cantantes son igual de asombrosas. xD Menuda voz Kelly! Se le nota el desengaño en 3:05!
the original is amazing. carrie is AMAZING. and kelly sounds amazing in this too. i think theyre both so different versions. they both do an amazing job
just so fucking great...love the vocals and the emotion. a little different. carrie's version was very pleading; kelly's was realization, pleading, and hopeful but some resolve
rarely do people do better than the the original on covers, but when i saw this i said this is how u outdo the original, I dont care what anyone says, she sang this better than carrie underwood to me. i felt it, it was emotional, one of the best vocals ever, if she is not in the top 5 best belters and voices out there then idk who is!
@anthill927 I completely agree! There's no question that Kelly out-sings Carrie, but it's especially apparent in this cover of this beautiful song! This performance on VH1 was everything you said it was and IMO was one of Kelly's very best!
@anthill927 She definitely sings this wayyyyy better than Carrie. Just being honest. She can sustain the notes better and she sings it with more emotion. She feels it, not just belts it.
@Dean814 And I like carrie's version, but i LIVEEE for powerful singers and belters because in my opinion its so rare, especially to do it right without screaming and she does it, and makes me feel the song.
So much emotion in this. Well done Kelly :')

Anybody can tell me what is the note she hits at 2:53? I feel like it's either G5 or G#5 but I don't have a keyboard to compare with. Thanks.

This cover is amazing! When Carrie sings it, it's extremely nasally. I prefer Kelly's full, round and pure sound over nasal any day!

Carrie's version is more of a quiet, inner struggle; almost defeated. It is just as powerful as Kelly's outward explosion.

She is so phenomenal. The voice of a generation without question.
Carrie is a talented young woman but no one holds a candle to Ms. Clarkson.
