hey I listened to your singing for the first time today and I'd have to say I love your voice, and I love your accent. It sounds like mine. You must be from the country. I live in Kentucky and first heard this song when I went to Ohio for a visit. My friend has this song on CD. No one can replace the original artist, but damn gurl, you are good!
Great job Karla! You might want to check out the Bob Kingsley CT40 Future Star contest -- winner gets a trip to Nashville to meet Ronnie Dunn and record execs from Sony/Arista plus a whole lot more.
you have an awsome voice...can u please do "stay" from sugarland...tha song is my divorce anthem and that song means the world to me...i know u can sing it...
man i love this by you i think you can really get some air time i would love to work with you on some stuff if you want to contake me my e-mail is paulo81904@yahoo.com
You sing good but you have back up/ your shit is not real/ some songs I tought were real... Now I know they are not! YOu can sing but your afraid to do it by yourself, and you never show your fingers on guitar. Do it and I will believe
@MrHsmiles Dude, you have no idea what you're talking about. This is 100% Karla Davis. Nobody else. She's singing 100% and playing 100%. The backup is various tracks she laid down and then mixed together. No damn autotyne either. That voice is tuned by God!
@MrHsmiles Okay, she plays by ear, and like BigJDog58 said she laid down the tracks - they are all her voice singing the different parts. Check out WhiteBreadLife's videos of Karla Davis at Rapids Jam where she is performing live. This should be proof enough for you, or better yet please take the time to see her live. She will make a believer out of you!
@MrHsmiles hahaha I went to this dudes page and he has the nerve to talk about somebody else's talent, I personally think he sucks at singing and is decent at playing the guitar. Now as far as karla yes she is playing but I am sure she is doing all this because of her voice not how well she plays guitar, her voice is amazing. I bet she makes it, you however sir it is very doubtful.
You have an AWESOME voice....can you sing a different version of Lennon's song "Imagine THere's No Cancer" . My good friend has cancer and I would love to share this song with her.
Really REALLY would like to hear you sing either my first love song or who are you when i'm not lookin.. From your accent your deff from the south lol.. I aswell am from the south country boy born and raised. You dont find very many ppl who actually has that southern draw tht makes country what it is. pls pls pls 8)!
Wow. I didn't think there could be a more moving rendition of this great ZB song than the original, but you just proved me wrong. This is an awesome female version of the song, sung with great depth and feeling. Much respect for your talent ... and hello from a new fan! :-)
Gosh I love your voice..I could listen to you all day ..can't believe wait to get my hands on your album..Hope it gets in the mail soon! :) amazing! I don't follow up on anyone I listen on youtube except you..cause' you're just so super awesome..you have a wonderful talent!
so beautiful. your singing gives me shivers! haha. and you just put so much feeling into it, you can see it in your eyes. you relate to every song like it's your own. i look forward to hearing more of your original stuff and see you make it big!
Thank you for this singing this song. I LOVE your style of singing and how you don't just copy the original, you always seem to do it just slightly different and it is amazing every single time. Please, Please keep this up, can't wait to see what you do next!!
Awesome. That's all I can say. As a mother who feels this song deep in my heart, hearing it from a female artist really makes it hit home even more. Thank you.
i always love watching your videos because you have a fantastic voice. you sing the songs better than the originals in my opinion. cant wait to get your cd. hope to see you make it BIG
OMG.... This song has never made my cry first of all because I'm not a crier but listening to this song while you were singing it. I was ballin. It just hit home for me. All I could think about were my 2 little girls not having there Dad. It hurt inside but it's alright! I guess listening to this in a female voice was what did it! I love your voice and it is so sweet and soft and absolutely beautiful! I cannot wait for you to HIT IT BIG you so deserve it!
Beautiful! A girl wrote a song for me when I was in Iraq, and let me tell you that it was my lifeline. I couldn't have made the deployment without it.
Beautiful! A girl wrote a song for me when I was in Iraq, and let me tell you that it was my lifeline. I couldn't have made the deployment without it.
This is @ jacktattooguy . I would love if you leave me a comment on one of my 6 videos . I would love if you cover rehab- red water . Search it on YouTube to see lyric . It will get a lot of smiles .
I came across your videos while viewing a few covers of "if i die young". Two words... PURE TALENT! Your voice tugs at my heart. You have a gentle soulful sound to your voice, which is absolutely stunning!
I fell to tears while listening to this song. My father passed away from Cancer a year ago. When I was very young, my parents divorced and so begun the rides to pick us up on the weekends. It just reminds me of what he may have been feeling for all those years. God i miss him
Absolutely heavenly. You have the voice of an angel. I found you through Curt Collins, who I found through Mitch Rossell, with that freeandeasyguitar dude stuck somewhere in the middle. LOL! Wish you the best, know you will go far - love your new single!!!! :-D
Unfortunate timing. If you had come out before Colbie Caillat, things would be quite different. However, she beat you to the cosmic punch. You sound identical but she was first. Too bad. :( Unfortunately there are a thousand beautiful girls with guitars singing country these days. Good luck though!
@skadar - Only after reading my own comment (and receiving a message from Karla) did I realize I came across as disparaging. There may be a thousand beautiful girls with guitars singing country right now, but you are 1 in a million. Simply stunning. And it appears that you are on your way. Have a great ride.
@skadar i understand that you apoligized for what you came across in this comment, but I am going to say this because I want Karla to know. I think she kind of sounds like colbie calliat, except that Karla's voice is so much more dynamic. And they don't have the same style. Karla's style is so much more mature. I am not dissing Colbie, because I love her, but Colbie has a style that no other woman can quite match, and the same goes for Karla. :)
KARLA! Wish you had time to do one of these a day! I need my daily Karla! Great job. Most times I like your version better than the original. Wishing you great success!
Wow, what a sweet voice. And may I say that you are not hard to look at either!
