Let The Good Times Roll (Sam Cooke cover by SayakaAlessandra)

[beatlestoneful]

lol!!great cover!!!

[bigboni7]

<3<3<3

[MATTYMONKEES]

Dope. There are two ways you can do a cover: straight-up or a reinvention. The latter is usually a lot more successful. You did a straight-up cover, though, and it was great because you accurately imitated Cooke's approach to the song. That's exceptionally hard to do. Even the most talented singers have tons of trouble with it. Kudos.

[j0k3r101]

Good job! I love Sam Cooke and you did not disappoint. You have a gift. Such a remarkable voice.

[RadioCarino]

Wow. I was not expecting that. It takes a lot of guts to cover a Sam Cooke song. You did it with style and talent. Excellent job. The dog seemed to enjoy it too! Very nice. S Carino.

[06bigd2000]

That was tight keep it up.

[badpdx]

Sam Cooke's singing is almost sacred to me, so I'm a pretty tough critic, but that was impressive. You managed to capture the feeling while adding your own style to it. Nice job.

[sport3290]

damnnnn girl. that was pretty impressive. i now listen to ur version more than i listen to my version. kudos.

[dalordofdaring]

Considering its Sam cooke ... one of the hardest singers to cover ... I tip ma hat for u ... respect !

[mstephens44]

Very well done. I think Sam would've been pleased.

[chillerniko]

wow que guapa señorita y ademas toca y canta super genial

[dfish58]

Absolutely Wonderful! It has been a great pleasure to hear your voice - very smooth and sweet, and make everything seem so effortless! Your CD is great, but there is nothing like hearing you live with an acoustic guitar - I could listen to you all night long. Keep up the great work!

[carlsborgbob]

Solid.

[dextermcgrubbin]

Best cover I've seen on YouTube! PLEASE do more Sam. I bed you'd be great at "Good News" or "Win Your Love for Me." Check out the Snooks Eaglin versions, too.

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks so much!

[groovyoldies07]

Just enjoy the music people enough with the hate. She's spreading the love through beutiful music. Just close your eyes and enjoy it.

[groovyoldies07]

You are beautiful. Thank you for making my day.

[thebagsnatcher]

@BadboybillyC

I read your comments dude. I agree, there are millions of singers and guitarists out there, but there aren't many who truly SING, y'know what I mean? She reminds me of the greats of the past, and like I said she's keeping their music alive. Not many do it rightly but she does. Instead what is your role exactly? I don't think your being respectul on her behalf either by sayin that she's nowhere near. Like I said I am sure Sam would be proud of her. Anyway to each his own.

[willieraye]

im in love

[Bluzer86]

Excellent !

[topkickmb]

The roll of your voice is every bit as pretty as that of Natasha St.Pierr, and Cher.

[Kuramochi0214]

Wow super !

Singing is really natural and besutiful.

Further you yourself are lovely with cute hair with red flower!

A spanish lady? I too think of you do. Just meaning so beautiful!!!

素敵ですね。love,

Tommy

[Astronaut14]

Superb singing talent, strong, clear and beautiful voice. 5*****

[ROdelUru]

Very nice..! Your hair is wonderful...Are you a Latina girl? Salute! Gustavo

[willieraye]

this is unbeliveable what a talent

[willieraye]

@BadboybillyC look mary im saying im tired of you u-tube losers coming out with your bullshit vs white talented artists past & present, i tired to answer you civel with 1 mans opinion. but you keep on & thats fact how your man met his end cause the little head controlled his big head, you feel me mary

[BadboybillyC]

@willieraye Whos mary?

[willieraye]

this is better then sams

[BadboybillyC]

@willieraye That is no where better even . Sorry chief.

[willieraye]

@BadboybillyC 1 mans opinon

[thebagsnatcher]

@willieraye I agree. That makes 2 men's opinion. 

@Badboybilly considering she's a girl, it almost is! She sings it with soul just like Sam. Sure she made him very proud.

[willieraye]

@BadboybillyC this is just 1 girl & her great voice & a guitar. & its as good as sams who was in the recording studio with back up singers pro cut.. & her smile is ice-ing on the cake because she knows she knocked it out of the park , 10-4

[BadboybillyC]

@willieraye Dude you obviously have a thing for her cause your sense of reality is altered to the point of being ridiculous. Do you know who Sam Cooke was and what music he wrote as well as performed and how many great legends were influenced by him? When I say great legends i mean Smokey , Al Greene, Rod Stewart Bobby Womack, Mick Jagger.. You give compliments away freely and at the same time dis the originals and creators as less than equal. You are a fool.

[thebagsnatcher]

@BadboybillyC

I think it's the other way around, you are a fool for criticizing a girl who is actually doing a tribute in Honor of Sam Cooke. She obviously has talent and a passion for music. You should be embarassed about belittling her. Go find me another girl (or man, for that matter) who sings this song as good as her. She managed to keep the essence of the song without changing it around and showing off like other singers .

[thebagsnatcher]

Just read your comment again, I guess your annoyed coz you don't agree with this being better than his which is fine, but there is no way you can say that this is nowhere near as good. She damn good for a chick! Anyway, I got your point and I also got my own. Peace out!

[thebagsnatcher]

@BadboybillyC

Nah, I meant to say Excellent for a chick, singing Sam Cooke (since YOU are the one who finds this version far from being as great as Sam's, who is a man by the way) She sounds even better than some male artists too LOL. A wonderful singer, and entertainer regardless anything though. She could sing the newspaper or anythin else and still rock it!

[BadboybillyC]

@thebagsnatcher You are at an impressionable age and sound like a fan of this girls. Fan on.

[willieraye]

@BadboybillyC wtf the matter with you bad sad mary her version of sams songs rocks thats all period end of story .& watch who you call fool . need i remind you of a chessy hooker in low a rent hotel did to well you know-- talk about a fool

[willieraye]

beautiful--beautiful--beautifu­l

[guitargroovin]

great cover...vocals and guitar.

[12barsoul]

very nice!

[meromero989]

Amazing

[crpdst2003]

Boy got a great tan....again you are reaching into the time machine of my brain....

Sam really was the singer that help turn a 13 year old into a musically aware teen.... ,., spent many a night listening to this song and other songs of Sam on my

transistor radio...ear phone was a new thing for the small transistors radios...tuck it under the pillow and listen to KCOK play a full album at midnight...
