  • Demi is so much better, sorry Kerli :)

  • Demi sings this song way better. seriously.

  • NO JAMAS ELLA CANTA BIEN, PERO NADA COMPARADO CON DEMI LOVATO.... BETTER THAN DEMI??? JAMAS!! DEMI IS THE BEST♥♥ YAYY

  • Kerli's great, ok. But better than Demi? NEVER!

  • Omg! I've been praying and hoping a good artist would sing this song! omg this made my day! Demi cant sing worth a darn in my opinion!! I'm soooo freaking happy Kerli made her own version!!! I LOVE IT!!!! :) :) :) SO Beautiful!!!!!!!!! THis made my day!!! :)

  • @TomBoyMari Kerli and 2 other people wrote this song, so it is HER song, not Demi's. Kerli just liked the way Demi sang the song and that's why she sort of gave the song to her.

  • I like Demi's voice on it better. It's just that Kerli's voice is too soft, the music is actually louder than her at times. Thanks Kerli,Toby and Lindy for producing such a beautiful song. I'm glad Demi was chosen to sing it.

  • WHAT! KERLI SINGS THIS SONG WAY BETTER THEN DEMI! I'm so sad now.

  • I think Kerli sings it better. She has so much emotion for it considering she wrote the song in the first place. I don't think Demi is experienced enough in life to truly understand the meaning behind the song.

  • I like it better with Demi, some how she makes the song more... I don't know, you just can relate more with her version.

    NOTE: Not saying I don't like this one, but I like Demi's emotion on it better

  • Listen to both songs at the same time <3

  • shes good but i like demi singing it better! i get chills hearing demi sing the song

  • @lizlene1 i agree for me she kinda recked the song but i think she good :)

  • the end was demi.

  • Comment removed

  • Both of them sing it amazingly. Kerli's is softer and more shy sounding because of her personality, she's s softer person where Demi's version mirror's alot of the harsh things she's been through. They're both amazing.

  • I love this song and I want Kerli's shirt..

  • Demi's bulimia affected her voice during her recording of Skyscraper, in case anyone didn't know, so give her a break! She decided against the new recording after treatment because it didn't have the same emotion (something like that).

    Anyways, though I didn't like the song when Demi sang it, and I still don't, Kerli does a much better rendition of the song imo. She has a unique tone to her voice. I have never heard a voice like hers.

  • Kerli wrote this song for herself, but when she saw it wouldn't fit with her album, and she noticed everything that Demi Lovato was going through, she passed it her way knowing she'd have the same emotion for it that she had. Props to both of them.

  • @LillyViper I thought she co-wrote it with Toby Gad and Linda Robbins. They should be given credit for the song too!

  • kerli wrote this song ffor demi

  • Omg she's really good she's kinda gaga style ....... Love it

  • love this version so much better. she actually puts emotion in it. demi screams and i dont count that as singing. i use to love demi but now i just cant stand the girl unfortunately and i will never like her again. but both girls do deserve this song no doubt,

  • Kerli WROTE (helped) write this song and OFFERED it to Demi because it meant so much to her. Though I love Demi and her version I want everyone to know it was never "Demi's song" she never wrote it Kerli helped....but I LOVE them BOTH!!!! <3

  • now, i believe this is real kerli..! soon , happy birthday kerli!!!

  • who is this? is this kerli??

  • question, at 3:38. the last "Like a skyscraper" it sounds exactly like demi?! am i the only one who's noticed this?

  • @M2GO98 I said it is my opinion. I don't know Kerli as much as Demi so i don't really know what happened in her life. I just said that I think that it fits Demi's Situation perfectly.

  • I think Kerli did a fantastic job! I prefer Demi's version though (:

  • No offence but i like Demi's Version better. She can relate more to it.

  • @bipolarxbiatch Demi, can relate more too it? Uhm. No. Kerli wrote the song, she has had many problems in her life too. You cant just say it has more signifigance to Demi. Because it doesnt. Kerli has had many downfalls throughout her life. So dont say that.

  • @M2GO98 That's right I totally agree. Kerli is from Estonia and there were really tough times there when she grew up. People there didn't have anything..I know because i'm from estonia too, i know the city she grew up in very good.it's nothing compared to what they had in the US at that time.

  • @bipolarxbiatch you dont know what kerli has been through

  • @ElectrikkPaperClipxx I never said that I do.

  • @bipolarxbiatch im just letting you know that demi is the only one who can relate to this song.

  • @bipolarxbiatch i meant is not

  • i love this version better :3 MY OPINION!

  • la otra version me molesta escucharla y esta me gusta :)

  • I do prefer this version, but props to Demi for her success.

  • I prefer this version ^^

  • Can people just SHUT UP about who sings it better!? Listen to the dang song and enjoy it! If you don't like it, the gtfo. -_-

  • @aliens4everandever yeah i agree -_-

  • I like both versions but I dont think you should compare it couse they are two different people with very different styles of music. I like them both in different ways =D

  • i am a lovatic :) so i do not not just like demi for her music its cos shes an inspiration :) i must say i rather demi lovatos version better not because it is better just because its my opinion :)

  • @jetsetlell23: scream? LOL, do u really know about music? Demi hits a very high notes, it's G5. Do u know when a singer hit a notes higher than F5, it sounds not as good as normal notes? Kerli never can do what Demi did. You can hear Stronger by Kelly Clarkson, she has music style like Demi. If you could say Kelly scream and not sing, trust me many people will laugh at u.

  • kerli is better when demi sings she screams. that isnt singing. kerli is a way better singer than demi. face it. kerli puts a lot of emotion into it as well shes just not screaming about like demi does. and since she had it first and let demi sing it too i think thats very nice of her, especially since demi has a different style than kerli (music wise). but i guess demi sings it ok.

  • @jetsetlell23 You are a moonchild, I'm assuming? Well, this isn't a terrible statement, I'll give you that. But Kerli has taught us not to compare her to other things. We should know better than this.

  • @jetsetlell23 I totally agree with you. :)

  • @jetsetlell23 omg are you deaf? demi doesn't scream, it's just her voice. demi sings this so much better. with emotion. ;)

  • @jetsetlell23 demis just belting out high notes u cant exactly call that screaming...

  • @jetsetlell23 Demi has an amazing voice! so shut up!

  • i have to say Demi is way better she puts so much emotion into it

  • she got an accent that I don't like D: 

  • @hoshiyokaulitz ummmm if u listen to her other songs she has like a beutiful voice so u know what ur just being childish because u can't sing half of half of half as good as her, i will admit this song doesn't quite fit her style and she sort of messed it up a little but i still love the song so stop bein a dick

  • @AutumnOfTheWay: Ok, thanks for replying me. It looks like the teenager in Western are more mature than in Eastern. I'm 18 and I still listen to Disney beside Eminem and Linkin Park.

  • @MiyakoLovato No, that's not what I meant. I didn't mean it's childish, it's just the assumption over here. Sorry, especially if I caused any offence, I didn't mean to. Peace?

  • both are good. i think they should both do it live together.

  • Two amazing women. Kerli is dope; she's my girl; I love her. Her voice is unique and soulful, I myself prefer it. However, props to Demi who is an amazing young lady, has struggled undeservingly and deserves every ounce of positivity in her inspiring life. Both of these girls deserve this song. I will probably purchase both versions.

  • i love how she says watchin' endin' , cryin' lolol.....<3

  • Kerli beats Demi hands down.

  • i love this!!! but i love how demi added the high note <3333

  • Amo a Kerli, mas prefiro a versão da Demi.

  • there's just this magical, sort-of-otherworldly quality to kerli's voice...it just makes her voice so beautiful and unique...

  • She's a great singer and songwriter ,but I think Demi's version is more powerfull and meaning is closer to Demi!#Justsaying

  • @MyTheMusicMan demi isnt the only one who has gone through shit. kerli has gone through some pretty tough shit herself.

    just saying

  • @ElectrikkPaperClipxx Sorry ,I only know Demi's story so I'm just saying. :)

  • I love this version. I think Demi is talented but my personal opinion is that Kerli's version has more emotion. So beautiful!

  • @ElectrikkPaperClipxx: i have no idea about your thinking, but if you're American, can you answer that question?

  • this version has plenty of emotion

  • This is such a powerful song and I am in awe that Kerli wrote it! This song is such a huge deal and she has a whole lot to be proud of :) Simply amazing stuff.

    The song suits Demi, it's something for a more mainstream artist..simple and for everyone to relate to. Thanks, Kerli!

  • I loved both versions, but I got excited to hear Kerli do the high note! When she didn't I got a little sad. I know that it was a hard note but I feel like she could have done it!

  • I like both versions.. they both sing it on their own way..

  • I HATE THIS VERSION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @HelloKittyRocks157 And who are to to say?

  • No offense but i honestly think this would not have made it successfully as Kerli's single... She was very smart to give it to Demi

  • @AutumnOfTheWay: if you are American,i have one question for you:what happen with your opinion about Disney singers?Britney,Christina,Timb­erlake,all of them came from Disney,and they're success now,they have Grammy.So why many Americans think that the new Disney singers are cheap,or cant sing?Stupid.Well,i'm Lovatic and i wont slam you,but i think other Lovatics will angry when they know you though Demi's a cheap Disney singer.If you want judge the Disney singers,you should hear they sing first

  • @MiyakoLovato that sure looks like a slam to me

  • @MiyakoLovato That's not what I meant. I'm from England, actually, and I'm 13, and the general opinion around my peers is that people don't listen to Disney anymore at our age. I'll admit, I was ignorant before, but there's no need for a heated debate. Besides, I said Demi was good, didn't I?

  • @AutumnOfTheWay i'm 13 and i watch disney channel so stop pretending like u don't watch it

  • @anabanana021599 Sorry, but not every 13 year old watches disney channel. Um, I actually don't have the TV package which includes Disney Channel, so I can't watch it anyway. xD

  • I like Demi lovato Better she gave more to it and made it better kerli sings it weird

  • @nicole567ify Wow way to be a troll.

  • I was hoping there would be a studio version... I fucking love Kerli. Fantastic song. I mean, I'm not the biggest Demi fan, but she did do a pretty good job with this song,

  • I'm not sure which version I like better, I mean, I'm a Kerli fan, and I like the sound of this, but the raw emotion in Demi's version just hits me. It kind of shocked me, before I suppose I thought of her as a cheap Disney pop singer (PLEASE don't slam me).

  • Lol, this isn't Demi's song.Kerli and other writer's wrote it.End off.

  • @tarunchannel really? i didn't know that. I checked it said Kerli, Tony Gad and someone else wrote this song ALONG with Demi. :)

    @JessieA1998 ikr!? :)x

  • I Like Demi Lovatos Version Better ,

    This is Good Though , ilu Kerli <3

    Both Amazing Singers (:

  • She should have kept this song as her own. I LIKE it better

  • whats different in the lyrics?? they changed "oh oh" to "yeah yeah" ??

  • @KidKolobteeX Kerli wrote the song

  • @goldenpipex yeh I know, but it said that demi lovato changed the song lyrics, and "oh oh" is the only difference between Kerli and Demi

  • @KidKolobteeX YEAH! XD

  • aahh this explains a lot I was already wondering how could demi lovato ever think of such an awesome song but now that I know that Kerli wrote it just shows me once more that she is awesome...it's so unfair that lovatos version is way more polpular and Kerlis original has hardly any views -___-'''

  • Actually demi didn't write any of this kerli and two other song writers wrote this song.

  • I just love Kerli so damn much, she's amazing.

  • @LebeDeinenTraeume hahaha no, Demi also took part.

    And i'm just saying it in my perspective, i respect yours too :)

  • @OrangeHorizon180: no, this song was written by Toby Gad, Lindy Robbins and Kerli. But i hate people say this song was written by Kerli( they meant only her)

  • Demi wrote this song when she was going through her depression.

    so I think Kerli made a remake of i :P

  • @OrangeHorizon180 nope, if you get demi's new cd, Unbroken, and look in the info under skyscraper, demi didn't write it at all. kerli and 2 others wrote it.

  • pole kahtlustki. oled parim.

  • @ToinyBoyZz No honey, Demi took part in writing this song. Kerli din't write the whole thing.

    Get your facts right, please.

    @rockout2music100 agreed! :D

  • @hlovato1997

    Hey there! Couldn't help you're comment. Actually, Kerli wrote everything. She said it herself ;-)

  • @hlovato1997 Cool you tits, Demi didn't help write it. It was all Kerli, Toby Gad and Lindy Robbins.

  • @hlovato1997 demi admitted herself that she didn't write any of the song

  • @tarunschannel and i am a massive demi fan

  • Preefiro Com A Demi !

  • I like this version and Demi's. I just think Demi had more passion behind it, more emotion because of what shes gone through.

  • Demi Lovato and Kerli lovers! Stop the hate! Both of them are equally amazing and even more amazing if they unite. :D

    youtube.com/watch?v=rNmYXXreeJ­0&feature=related

  • Kerli wrote it and Gave it to DEMI,demi just edited the song

    But I'm A LOVATIC

    Just saying the truth

  • @GlitterBox1000 nooo... >=/ demi write it!

  • @AngelXoXBabyDollFace Oh my god. Can you give me any proof she wrote it? NO you can not. "Skyscraper" was written by Toby Gad, Lindy Robbins and KERLI Kõiv.

  • @AngelXoXBabyDollFace Idiot go on wikipedia, demi lovato did not fucking write it.

  • @PunkLeona3 wow your so late u stupid. i ready found out. u don't have to use cussing word,

  • @AngelXoXBabyDollFace Well being a teenager I CUSS alot.

  • @PunkLeona3 i understand. but is bad. =/ im 15 and u cuss sometime

  • @AngelXoXBabyDollFace i cuss waaay to much. but im going through a bad time i guess :/

  • @PunkLeona3 my life fuck up... =/

  • demi lovato is better...................

  • tghis song tells a story for both the singers.... Demi rising from her suicidal period , and Kerli rising to be who she is now

  • @NeOnFuDgE101 kerli wrote the song with two other song-writers but at the beginning it was hert song that she wanted to have in her album, then demi listened to it and she loved it and she asked kerli if she could have it, kerli said yes!! But everyone knows that kerli wrote it!!! =)

  • Kerli give more passion to the song.

  • @Ix3SDGL

    Whoa, it really IS Demi at the last 'Like a skyscraper'!

  • love kerli but I prfer demi's voice for the song over hers. Demi's voice just brings it more to life for me.

  • I like DEMI"S version a lttle more. KERLI sang it more peacefull and calmly while DEMI showed the strength showing how she is rising like a skyscraper. DEMI starts a little soft and as the song goes by her voice gets stronger showing that she is rising like a skyscraper.

  • Kerli Wrote this song and let demi Sing. Now they are both good singers and they both probly hate when people fight over whos Better, so people stop being stuck up snubs and enjoy both versons.

  • The Reason Why Its Better when kerli sings is because shes from a poor country and people tell her she cant and she did she has so manyu fans she has her own music,style,clothes demi and her are great but the songs Very Representational it tells kerli's story

  • Kerli had originally wrote the song for her album along with Demi, but she gave the song up to Demi, since she had been through so much and it resembled her better.

  • Such a beautiful voice. (:

  • I swear the last "Like a Skyscraper" is Demi? o_O

  • @Ix3SDGL it is

  • @prettylittleliar0851: I'm not the first one who compare them, many people before me did that. You should read more comment. And which part do you hear Kerli hit the highest note? No, she didn't

  • I love that sound to her voice! <3

  • @ToinyBoyZz: no, only you know it, not everyone. Skyscraper was written by three song-writer, not only Kerli. So you cant say kerli wrote her song herself

  • i love both versions

  • I love demis version, and didnt think i could like anyone elses....But im not sure :D I think i like them both the same ;]

  • @NeOnFuDgE101 actuall kerli wrote her song herself, demi didnt! Everybody knoes it....

  • I prefer Demi's version but to be fair i had no idea who Kerli was until i read some comments 5 minutes ago

  •  in kerli´s version have so much more emotions! love you kerli !

  • Omq thiiz iz Awesomeee God bles her voice!!! She sounds more better then demi!!

  • Wow, I liked this song because I thought Demi put all that emotion into by herself. But she just basically sang it exactly like this woman. SMH, I'm now a Kerli fan...

  • Kerli Has A Beautiful Voice :)

  • Hey, if Demi really didnt give credit to Kerli, why you only mention about it? Where're Toby Gad, Lindy Robbins? Many people who support Kerli think Kerli's the only writer of Skyscraper, they forget that two guys

  • All of her moonchildren turning against her friend just because of a song...

  • Kerli wrote it. Demi sang it, and didn't give credit to Kerli. BUT, Kerli and Demi are friends, therefore, all of this choosing and these comments trying to persuade other's to change their views are just annoying. If you like Demi's version more, DON'T comment on this video. If you like Kerli's more, don't comment on Demi's video. Personally, I like Kerli, but that's because I'm used to her voice, and I was never into Demi. Period. Done. Kerli would be so upset if she knew about all of this...

  • @afalsestar demi did give her credit she tweeted about it

  • I like Kerli's version better. Demi's is amazing but I just prefer Kerli's. No big deal

  • Who cares who's sounds better? Seriously both versions are fine. People's opinions will differ so instead of arguing and trying to prove your opinion realize that no matter what you say there will always be someone else who will think differently.

  • @MiyakoLovato

    I wouldnt go as far as to say Demi has one of the best voices today. I personally like Kerli better and I like her version better. But thats just my opinion. But I really dont think she has one of the best voices now. Not by a long shot to me.

  • @MiyakoLovato

    And kerli has a great voice. She can hit high notes too. and when Demi tries to hit higher notes she ends up screaming. Kerli is a songwriter with a great voice and has her own style and originality.

  • <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 LOVE LOVE LOVE KERLI

  • I personally think Kerli's version is way better

  • @xHeyItsWendy You have no idea what Kerli has been through. Therefore you have no right to judge. None of us do.

  • @xHeyItsWendy and .... why you listen it if you think it is ``ewwwwwwwwwwww```why?????????

  • @maikaslps2001 i listened 'cause I was curious, just it.

    I repeat, I like Kerli, but i never listened her skyscraper version and i did.

    What's your problem? That i don't like something that you like?

  • Kerli is leaps and bounds ahead of Demi. in my opinion. Demi still hasnt really matured as an artist yet.

  • Demi it's BETTER

  • I like both versions but I obviously prefer Kerli's! She's the best!! Kerli all the way!!

    I.L.U. Moonchild Forever!

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

  • omg ! demi sings this song like she wants help and kerli`s version have more emotions !!!!!!!! kerli I.L.Us oled!

  • Honestly, Kerli wrote this song for demi. If Demi hadn't of sang it first, then I don't think you guys would be hating on this as much. kerli and demi both have the right to sing it, and they both do so VERY well <3

  • @WaverlyWizardx:suck? Can Kerli sing the highest notes with her weak voice? Can Kerli put so much emotion in this song like Demi? Remember that Skyscraper will boring and never perfect without the amazing notes Demi sing. If you want sing better than Demi, HIT THAT NOTES FIRST. Kerli cant. So she suck. Shut your fuck up. I don't want insult Kerli, but you made me do it by saying ugly about Demi.

  • @MiyakoLovato

    I both LOVE Demi and Kerli, and they have different tones in music.

  • @MiyakoLovato A. Kerli is immeasurably better looking than Demi. That by itself is a reason to prefer her. B. Kerli can sing just as well, as Demi, and Kerli has a much more unique sound.

  • Listen at 3:10 - 3:13 and listen at Demi singing that part. Demi makes is more speacial and powerful

  • Love this song, whoever sings it demi or kerli, this song is art, Demi did it art so as kerli

  • @Lizzheidd: I know. I know she wrote it with Toby Gad and Lindy Robbins, NOT ONLY her. I have said that before. She wrote it, but who made this song amazing and famous is Demi, right? If u think she really can sing better than Demi, why she doesn't sings it by herseft. I think many people her e should stop talking about that stupid comparison.
