Bianca Ryan and Jennifer Holiday

[qwertlivvy]

can't both of them be amazing... i have noticed that amazing child performers that their voice doesn't get better and it stays the same.... I don't think she could get any better (shes just so good).

[dixiegirl4life1]

I think the video of Jennifer Holliday was the best performance I've ever seen her do!

[MrTwirler]

Bianca have a powerful voice range but remember, she is 11 and still have a white voice, we don't know if she will keep that range when her hormones do their job. Other thing, Jennifer is PERFORMING and not COMPETING so are situations that can't be compared.

[connieg99]

Well, I think in the version of the song you have Jennifer singing I like Biancas singing better. But I ve heard Jennifer sing this with less dramatics and its beautiful so how can you compare such great talent. They are both incredible. However, an 11 year old can sing as good as Jennifer Hudson. WOW that is amazing. I think I'll give it to Bianca just on that fact alone.

[mc15cp]

Bianca Ryan looks familar

[mileyfansve]

I think they r both great! Little kids will listen to Biancas version and adults can listen to Jennifers!

EVERYBODY WINS!!!

[brickwood]

want to chat?

[ragdump]

Just remember Jeniffer and Bianca are friends Bianca lists Jeniffer as one of her all time hero's and would not want people to compare them,Bianca and Jeniffer have sung a duet and jeniffer invited Bianca up on stage and asked her to sing at her Las Vegas show 2 weeks ago

[bufster007]

Jennifer is performing so its meant to be over exaggerated... she has different versions ya know.

Bianca's is a great version too, but you can't bet an original. Go Bianca! I hope the media doesn't ruin you.

[lee4ivy]

jennifer holiday owns this, but i personally she screams to much while bianca gives every note a tone.

[rodgebill2007]

a nonsense comparison...still holiday holds the trophy...bianca out

[SeXyAzN44]

my god, jennifer is obviously a professional singer and has an amazing voice, but you also have to remember that jenn. is a fully developed (voice wise) and here you have an 11 year old girl that probably has the same voice range. she is 11 here!!!! imagine when she is jennifer's age !

[LJ43094H]

Are you people serious Bianca is coping of Jennifer, Jennifer owns this song

[t3chee]

Jennifer Holliday can sing, but its too fancy. Bianca rules!

[leitermann]

I think Bianca does it better. Just imagine when she's older!

[Salmonilla]

booooo

[englishkkrr]

Sorry but Jennifer Holiday,,

looks like a creeper on the show,

NO OFFENSE !

but i LOVE BIANCA ! <333333

[HotmailHottie]

How can you compare a 11 year old child to a fully grown adult woman. Mariah Carey is infact amazing but if this girl carries on she will be as popular if not more popular than Mariah! I mean look how popular she is already and she's only young!!!!!

[nightSpiritUK]

Jennifer Holiday owns that song..that young girl can sing though, but she's no Mariah Carey, nowhere near the same vocal range.

Impressive stuff...

[shortblonde5]

its to perfect and sooooooo mariah carey!!

[RockstarJade05]

boo!!!!!! charice get out in the singing career ur voice sucks!!!!!

[4pp13]

shes from the PHILIPPINES

[what2say4]

Bianca is much better. The other girl thinks she's the best and is kind'a hypocrite.

[rrnkorea]

ur not 1 of "kind'a hypocrite"atleast she can sing and pronounce d song very well...by d way your bianca can't sing dat better

[cleotube]

Like Comedian and brilliantist Paul Mooney says (look him up on here), everybody wants to be Black, but nobody want to be treated like Blacks.

[alyssa19961996]

Bianca was like better.

[Omgitsjennaaa]

Wow. She has an extremely mature voice. She is an inspiration to every young woman!! A big voice, in a very little body.

[dawsonpark]

lol at the remix from bianca to the soul diva

[apostro]

She should only sing this one

and song like Keyshia s LOVE

Only dramatic stuff

With the cheap christmas stuff she will destroy her career

[MihaiVirusu]

cei ba cu descreierata aia =)) jennifer Holiday

[Biancafan22]

Check out the duet between these two amazing singers! It's fantastic! They sang it at a charity event. Seeing them together, singing this song is great! Type in BIANCA RYAN JENNIFER HOLIDAY!

[helplesslycold]

I have to say Jennifer Holiday sings it better but you can't compare beause she's way younger then Jennifer Holiday...

[Tiggersmac]

ya..good call Sherlock ! Did you come up with that one by yourself ? Or did you call a friend ??

[paigesidebottom1]

bianca ryan is my favorite singer, her and miley cyrus

[LuvxxU]

Really Even though Jennifer Holiday sings the original Bianca Sings the song better and I like it more but they both are good

[dabertin123]

That voice shouldn't come out of an 11-year-old girl! I mean... It's just so natural!

[19susanne82]

fellows, this girl is 11 (!!) years old! What do you think her voice will be like when she is 20 or 25? I promise you she will be a world class singer!!

[Tiggersmac]

"Will" be a world class singer ??? C'mon Susanne sweety...GOD has already taken care of that...from before Bianca's birth into the present world.

[Tiggersmac]

sorry folks..commenting on my own comment..if the message was missed in the latter comment...she already IS, and was BORN to be..MORE than simply a world class singer, there are many of those around (not that that isn't a great gift), HOWEVER..this little girl IS as SUPER SPECIAL as Micheal Jackson WAS.

[Gatofranco]

Marvelous mentor, wonderful student. Jenniffer is a mature artist, Bianca is a rising Star. Go get'um Bianca!! Eat your hearts out green envious dwarfs!!

[akaSTAR326]

Bianca is good but she lacks the soul that is needed to really sell this song,

[doodledudey]

Yes, Bianca may be good but think.. Bianca have copied most songs.. proving that Jennifer Holiday Has Both talents .. And no she doesnt sound like fingernails on a chalk board in the other versions.. this was just poor quality.

[wakanivuga]

I totally agree with gospeldiva7, U cannot compare a young talent like Bianca Ryan to the Queen Diva like Jennifer Holiday. Both are talented nevertheless, Jennifer's got soul in her singing, whereas Jennifer is more vocal ability :)

[MBPFRANCE]

You are right on the money here! No one in their right mind can compare either to the either! Hudson owns the song - but Bianca gets to copywrite the ability as an 11 year old to dream she could sing this song with this much power and emotion and then go on national tv as a total amateur and blow their socks off! Why not compare Martin Luther King to Boys II Men!

[akaSTAR326]

I AGREE !!! Jennifer Holiday is so great, i mean bianca is good but not even close to The origional dream girl.

[doglover1799]

i like Bianca Ryan way better!

[12fitboy13]

Bianca Ryan is the best singer by far i love her! shes 11 i mean WOW!!! in america's gt talent wen she came on every1 was nt expectin tht i mean Fukin hell!!!! SHES AMZIN im byin her album!!!!

[nonenoart]

oh ...powerful

[BlackIsBeautifull]

I think Jennifer Holiday is better...she can really sing, the little girl can sing damn good too...

[mafsouth]

I like Bianca more

[ddrroottiinnii]

how can yu compare a wat 50yr old to an 11 yr old???

jeez their both gd

[SerialKittyxTheTruth]

You guys have to be kidding me? How old are you kids 12/11? How the hell do you like Biancas performance better? Jennifer Holliday has a hell of a voice, Bianca..is putting it up for show. This video sound quality isn't that good, but look back at some Jennifer Holliday tapes and see who is better. Gotta be kidding thinking that squirt had a better voice than Jennifer.

[CheesynessOnAStick]

I think Bianca is way better!

She is just amazing

But I have heard Jennifer Holliday on other places here

And she has a horrible grating voice

[SerialKittyxTheTruth]

Jennifer's voice is real. Bianca was putting up a show. Listen to current stuff, nothing on what she had on the show. Well of course she had to put on a show to win.

[ploki777]

heehee i have the same dress =]

[djdanny25]

she is amazing for her age!!

[Lyraell]

i preffer bianca's preformance...

[Drakon222]

I agree with you. Both are very good but Bianca is apparently better.

[7zipzapper]

Re:BiancaUdate: Go to biancaryandotcom What I'm saying is what this child has is the very same connection to the Universe of Talent that few have been able to fully tap. The whole reason she sings w/such passion is she innately connects to that Source through us listening. Future? She's yet to live it!!!

[hsjgjsfj]

Bianca doesnt sing it with origniality. Copies it completely and even tries to sound JUST like Jennifer Holiday. I think bianca's ACTUAL voice (recordings after the show) is way better.

[r5lark]

Interesting comment hsjgjsfj most people prefer the AGT version over the CD. Both are Biancas actual voice, she just toned it down for the CD. She needed to really impress the judges on AGT so she belted it out. I do not think she was trying to sound like Jennifer Holiday, just Bianca Ryan at full power.

[silassays]

You're joking, right? Jennifer Holliday sounds like fingernails on a chalkboard. Bianca Ryan is mesmerizing. If Bianca had copied Jennifer Holliday she'd have been booed off the stage. the AGT version is best by far.

[gospeldiva7]

You are out of your mind. There is no comparison. While Bianca is an extraordinary talent, her voice is no comparison to the legendary Jennifer Holliday who's voice became a signature for that song. Bianca is amazing because she is so young to be able to interpret that song since she is not romancing yet.

[silassays]

I'm bothered by the personal attacks, vulgarity and lack of spelling and grammar skills so prevalent on YouTube. Reality is subjective and personal opinion doesn't equate fact. Agree to disagree and move on.

[gospeldiva7]

WHATEVER!

[gospeldiva7]

Even if she copied...she is amazing at doing it. Her talent still stands alone...

[lemonlime1192]

Well to me the original when its sang with so much emotion is ALWAYS going to be better... well 9 times out of 10 and this is no acception.

[maxhansendk]

Food as music are subjective of course. I like some music and food that doesn´t appeal to everybody...; -)

I find it incredible though!!

That an eleven year old is even compared to an experienced star!!!!!!!

Am I dreaming? Is it really possible?

Yes it is!

Yehuda menuhin was 12 when he got rewievs that any violin-star would envy!

I hope Bianca gets professional guidiance. She sure has the gift of singing.

P S I´m still amazed...it feels surreal. D S

[elli91]

ich finde biancas version sogar besser als die von jennifer...

[singleguy77]

Please, biancas great but really are we wasting out time comparing. Holiday is queen when it comes to this song, SHE OWNS IT and always will. Jennifier had Soul, passion and a sheer grit that Bianca simply cannopt poses at 15-16. Differnt times, differnt women differnt world, sorry but theres just no comparison. this is holidays number.

[chihuahua74]

first of all she is only 12 and second of all i would to hear you do a better jojb than bianca

it sounds to me like you have an unhealthy obbsesion with jennifer holiday

GET OVER IT

[gospeldiva7]

(In reference to singleguy77's comment on the Jennifer Holiday/Bianca Ryan issue) AMEN!! I agree..Jennifer Holiday owns this song. It is a TALL order to sing.

[jerry1516544]

I'm taking that part about Dynamics back ... she's has powerful voice ... when it comes to yelling

[jerry1516544]

People without a soul !!! ... are you deaf ? Jennifer Holiday has trouble with the dynamics of this song. Frankly when i compared Jennifer Holiday 2 Bianca Ryan, Jennifer's version is good for a hardrock band ... I Don't call that singing ... I call that Yelling ... Sorry Jennifer ... it's time to step off and make place for some young talent. some real talent

[radioham67]

for god's sake she's 12. she has the presence of a woman much older. And yes, i agree she Sings the tune, not yelss the tune. Jenny, meet your successor.

[khafre]

Only people with no Soul could ever think Bianca's version is better.

[Bikerhannover]

that´s right, whenever they don´t know the original Version...

[radioham67]

really, she's 12. she actually sings the tune. close your eyes and she's a 30 year old woman singing to her man. singing - not - yellin'. sorry jenny.

[ULTRATHICK]

five star for both bianca and jennifer!

[lailaaaaaa]

they are both amazing! and don't forget that bianca sang it at an audition longing to impress everyone in that little amount of time, jennifer sang the whole song in an musical where there is more acting involved. they truly are both very gifted people with great voices.

[trebllaw]

lailaaaa correct

[numba1TT]

come on now!!! ow can ppl say biancas version is betta?!?! Miss Holiday is amazing! Bianca chose this song....and sung it just as Good! but without the original there wouldnt be all this controvesy!

[buckster0123]

Bianca Ryan's version is far better and more controlled than Jennifers.

[CheesynessOnAStick]

I know! I know Bianca has changed the song a bit, but its better! Actually, when it is sung on her album with the same song version thing, it is just as good...but Bianca 4eva!!!

[gospeldiva7]

NOT!!!!!

[Madbutt]

Yes I agree I should see more of Jennifer Holiday.

It just surprised me that her performance as shown here is very strained with her voice unable to hit the strong notes with out faltering or screeching.

[Madbutt]

I've now seen the original version of this song.

From what I have read I thought Jennifer Holiday would be an amazing singer with power and range to rival the best. I am stunned that she is so far from that level it is ridiculous.

[CHEESEHATER]

Remember it is JENNIFER HOLIDAY that Bianca Ryan is emulating. To say that J. Holiday is not amazing shows how little you have seen of her.  DO NOT judge her by the one & only video of her that you have seen.

[DDC]

This is not about comparing Bianca to the great Jennifer Holiday. Apprieciate the talent that is obvious in this young lady. It is Miss Hoiday's version that Bianca chooses, not anyone else who has come behind her. The young lady has a God given talent that she praises him for. For someone her age to even think about doing that song let alone "nailing" is amazing in it self. Give Bianca Ryan her due. You will be hearing about her for a long time to come.

[beastumfan]

I think Bianca is better.

[soccerbabe10491]

OMG Bianca is an amazing singer sure the original to any song can never be beat cause it is the original but for being 11 Bianca sang her heart out and is now a big star so i would watch what you post and not jump to conclusions that Bianca or anyone is trying to outdue the original

[Spikey01]

Bianca is Awesome!  I bet jennifer Holliday was very proud of her! You go girl!

[nesh1]

Bianca WHo???

Oh! Come on people! Want to compare this little girl with miss Jennifer Holliday? Come on!! Don't make me laugh!

[MiguelSoul]

are u guys kiding bianca had 11 years old!!! I'm shock with her voice and soul for a 11 years old, u can't compare cause she is much younger, jennifer holiday is wwooww but bianca is so great2.

[nesh1]

if we go back when miss holliday was 11yo, i bet she still could sing circles around Bianca Ryan...

[TheRealRashad]

It was a COMPLETE was of time, life, breathe, everything to even put these two on the same screen together. Bianca is an insult to be compared to Jennifer Holliday.

[born2sing2theworld]

Jennifer Holiday will ALWAYS own this song... As I've stated many times before -- she will go down in history as laying down the most powerful, soulstirring and compelling vocal performances, EVER!

[born2sing2theworld]

There is NO, NO, NO, DAMN WAY a little 11 year old girl would EVER out-sing the incomparable, legendary and ULTRA-POWERFUL vocals of the creator, originator and emancipator of one of the vocal performances of all time! The NERVE to even DARE comparing the two!
