Much better than mine ;)

[zelo83]

[KrazyTimmy]

@Spaghetticode u fail at posting comments

[Spaghetticode]

Wow, you made this song your own.  Flash!

[Spaghetticode]

Wow, you made this song your own. Flash!

[GOODsongs4you]

hey there

[tintinet]

Great voice! Wow!

[disasterology777]

foxy

[eddytel]

I forgive you, that you do not have 4 Hands.

[eddytel]

nice girl, nice song but not really nice performance.

[rebelzorrr]

maiala

[fabio05cannavaro]

@rebelzorrr lol

[RAPinkerton]

very nice, very nice

[789isfunny]

that was beautiful, thank you

[TheJameySuede]

Cut and Pasters, you can quote me on that statement. thejameysuede-last day-2010

[TheJameySuede]

@BoldUnderlined Welcome to the internet where people fail three times to say something, before wasting both our time sticking up for a young girl to angle for cyber with her.........somewhere a child just got aids, and we are talking about this, thanks Internet...........A/S/L?

[BoldUnderlined]

@TheJameySuede Welcome to the internet where jealous, pretentious idiots make fools of themselves trying to sound clever (and failing miserably) by railing on young talent - you'll fit right in!

[mayabelle1107]

great tune... Let it fly sister...My suggestion... Mess your hair up to the point that you would never want a soul to see it.... Then do the video again...

[TheJameySuede]

God I'm sick of hearing Female voice's that sound like the life is being sucked out of them............you are putting it on deliberately being "breath--ey" on purpose, quit trying to be something your not. you undoubtedly have talent, why be a poser? anyone who thinks I'm making it up listen to the difference between first verse and later on......

[minihelmet77]

@TheJameySuede dude, theres no need to be an ass. she's putting herself out there which takes alot of guts. just keep the negative comments to yourself. its not like people are gonna praise you for being mean and crushing this poor girl's soul. i dont get it. just because youre behind a computer and nobody sees you doesnt mean you can be hella mean. is it just for your own personal joy and ego? youre acting like youre something and like you have talent. its just wrong

[TheJameySuede]

@minihelmet77 Sorry, I'm voicing an opinion which is right to me, and I'm sure ALOT of people agree with me.Also please read carefully, I did compliment her as well but I'm sure if you defend her enough, you will get her attention and she will cyber with you.....YAY! as far as being something.....I have no ego, i ain't shit, but my opinion comes from 16 years of playing music and being annoyed by this phenomenon of the female voice. Julee Cruise and Johnette Napolitano own you all.

[minihelmet77]

@TheJameySuede bro, nobody's trying to cyber shit. ive been playing music for a while too. and that's just screwed up that you would dog someone like this. i dont see why you had to write a comment about it. you coulda just kept it to yourself. no matter how shitty anything is, nobody should be humiliated just because someone else wants to show off that they know about music

[TheJameySuede]

@minihelmet77 Welcome to the internets where broken souls take their revenge on youth with hopes and dreams, crushing and compacting them down until they too hopefully become a bitter black diamond, mounted on a band of fear and anger. Yes sir, this is the Internets.

[Sonji1229]

IF LIFE HANDS YOU LEMONS YOU WILL MAKE SOME BAD LEMONADE WITH YOUR VOICE

[Sonji1229]

YOU SUCK IT HURTS

[itworkss]

You have a very beautiful voice, I actually like the extra emotion you added to the song, it gives it a different vibe. Great job!

The guitar was a little low, though. hehe.

[SepticX]

Awesome job on this song.

[SepticX]

The emotion is a bit... pronounced. But unless you're a pro, you can't expect to be polished to perfection.

[hackingtime88]

u remind me of serena vanderwoodson  from gossip girl

[apemanstreetwalker]

I agree with augustmoon...tone down the dramatics a bit...voice and playing is awesome...but sometimes just belting it out works too...

[PoeticLostSoul]

Very Lovely. :)

[csuwehling]

The original song just came on my pandora and every time I hear it I wish they sounded more like you. That may sound weird but I love your version SOO much more than the original. I think you are amazing. and beautiful to boot!

[teerav707]

I enjoyed that nice work:-)

[augustmoon0004]

Try to be less dramatic... you come off as trying to be a bit too sexy/hollywoodish which really comes off as fake. If you watch American Idol... do the opposite!! haha... they're all overly popped out. (Check out Joni Mitchell.... her talent stands alone... she could sing with a paper bag over her head and no one would even whisper in the room.... she's that hypnotic, but you do have talent...

Keep playing... :)

[randomnessRAWR22]

lyricly and musicly....unfortunately XD.

[MedicineGhosts]

ive just fallen right in love.

[colinvoybarker]

can u join my band?lol :)

[Kaorusan12]

i love your voice!

i wish i could play guitar like you do :)

[segroves]

simply beautiful:)

[Davecar13]

very impressive :)

[zelo83]

wow =O

[krst3n]

I like your emotion! Completely felt it , in the best way (I could have written in my pants, that's true too)

[hdurina10]

your "hey there" at the start made me lol

[Sagar13iffy]

the way u sing....ohhh ;)

[SebastianRocks02]

you make me want to cover this song too haha

[csuwehling]

I would much rather listen to you than the original. More please? :-)

[sunz600]

You have a really nice voice.

[Zimmerlala]

i wish every girl on earth would have a voice like yours, baby

[NinjaCeci]

hmm... Interesting. Really liked it :D

[idbuybelgium]

Likey Mclikeson!

[stephengerondakis]

Dislike!

[DillonUSMC27]

Awesome!!!! I was just about to take a shot at this!! I'm a fan of yours. Have you ever heard of Chris Knight? I think you'd like him. I would love to hear you do a cover of his song "North Dakota". I'd love to collaborate with you but you probibly don't live anywhere near Austin, lol. I'm gonna attach a vid of a different Chris Knight Cover that I'd love to hear you do. Toodles and keep it up!!!

[sickgirl224]

You're from PA

[rhythmdivine2]

hmmm ... dont like.

[ImSoFrickinBored]

you.. are... awesome! keep it up :D

[MonsieurMajestic]

Clearly you love that song and that's why you've performed it with the magic touch!

[rinajoyification]

i dont think u should mind ur hair or you having a bad day. u said at first its a sorta sad song and ur mood maybe fit perfect. and hair is annoying, it gets in my face too when i play but i wouldnt have noticed it if you didnt point it out. u did a really good job. inspired me to learn it! good version. hair in face+shitty day= authentic music playing, IMO

[FataBanshee]

I really like your cover. C:

[DylanShorkey]

Amazing, I love how you slow it down, love your voice, keep doing what your doing. Really made it your own.

[Gwyrddu]

You have a pretty sultry singing voice, anyway nice cover.

Often times it is possible to play a lead and rhythm parts of a song with just two hands, but it takes a hell of a lot of skill and practice to pull off, which is why you don't see it very often.

[GoldenSlumbers109]

u put to much effort in singing but pretty good

[FilmsReCon]

cool but listen to the song a bit harder. there's not such a long space between each line. you have a great voice though

[thelibertyscene]

@FilmsReCon it's called interpretation.

[FilmsReCon]

@thelibertyscene could be. seemed to me that it's one of those mistakes that early singers make when covering a song with a difficult form. new slang has a few odd metered measures in it and it can trip people up. if i'm wrong and it was intentional then my comment can be ignored. it's called constructive criticism.

[1Feliks1]

Великолепно, понравилось даже больше чем оригинал, голос очень красивый )

[1Feliks1]

Великолепный голос, мне даже больше понравилось чем оригинал :)

[sarpcerci]

i think you may be the sexiest girl on you tube. or at least one of the sexiest. me and my buddy are getting ready to cover this song. maybe you can watch that one and critique for us? i play drums so i am trying to find a drum pattern to play w this song.

[nckwlsh]

great voice! good cover!

[medoooc]

marry me sweety

[HurfDurfAlive]

wow i wasn't expecting that, great job :D

[ExperimentalREM]

You have a bright future ahead of you.

[anonymoustoad]

... I like the way she takes a big guitar and manages to get a small sound out of it, a different type of talent... kind of like a beautiful woman singing just an indie rock song perfectly...

[fisla1]

love ya

[Rdohead1]

a gorgeous song played well by a gorgeous woman. looks like all the bases are covered =)

[TheFirstFrenchDuke]

Absolutely love this. Well done.

[n8kendrick]

Marry me? :-) You're voice is so beautiful. Great cover! I look forward to hearing more of you.

[MsHelloworld101]

brilliant!

and your really naturally pretty

[Lukamusic81]

your voice encompases the sad emotion more than the orignal, you rock!

[tydarnell17]

This is awesome!

[fridon7]

nice nice nice :P

[hgsouth]

ah I wish I could sing. pretty rad cover! one of my favorite songs

[hgsouth]

@loudaaa new slang is the title

[ecnphs7]

[supercristar1]

[ericsalwasser]

[bigold100]

[gr8makdad]

You didn't look down to me. You look great. You sound great. Good job.

[justinbriansmith]

[futurecop3100]

Yes! The Shins! Great job, maybe do some more of their songs?

[devince1000]

[doughyjoey5]

so peaceful. this quited my soul. Thank you Katie.

[IABProductions]

you did a wonderful job, truly one of the best covers i've heard for this song.

[sydneycarton79]

let's get a 623 -- purple underwear. look at what he's eating -- at least a 5b, an xdarkgreen and go around and slap the girls he knows

[1SharpDressedMan]

One of my favorite songs, and you certainly do it justice!

love the attitude and theres something mezmorizing about your voice. Looking forward to more of you music!

[khongsansang]

[biggoodness]

[xxtomxx9]

[TheRealGally]

FANTASTIC

[the7king7of7world]

I congratulate you, you play excellent, but I might say, how much average time practice?

[khongsansang]

@the7king7of7world very well

[the7king7of7world]

te felicito, tocas exelente, pero me podrías decir, ¿cuanto tiempo promedio practicas?

[eric1351]

will you marry me?

[NikDiC423]

you're awe.some

[ilikecake97]

awesome

[runey777]

You are beautiful and very talented. I would love to hear you sing "Tiny cities made of ashes," originally by Modest Mouse but listen to the Sun Kil Moon version. Or try "Rock n Roll Singer" by Mark Kozelek of the same band (AC/DC cover). Or Sun Kil Moon's "Glenn Tipton" is awesome.

[thewinghunter]

now i can learn to play this song.. lol. i like yer stuff alot...

[dudasboy]

wow OMG you are so beautiful, i love your smile, and your eyes, i love especially facial expression ate a little bit funny.... about the music is good but need more expression and life.... i hope you can get your dreems... your eyes tell me you are a nice, sweet and dreamy person.....

i hope you like this comment

[andresocampopalacio]

I love you!!!

[Sammydoodle14]

I have to say, This is one of my favorite songs and has been for about six years, and this cover does justice. It's beautiful and I hope to hear more.

Cheers,

Samantha <3

[kquisenberry0006]

Katie. Everyone keeps saying this and I commented once before on another video, but you really are very good. I really like the way you covered this song. I am sorry the day you recorded this was not a good one. And has anyone mentioned how naturally gorgeous you are? kidding, who hasn't. You seem like a very down to earth girl. You would sound great w/ my friend Joy. She lacks some of the range that you possess. We should chat about it sometime and see what ya think. Nice work

[koonkilla]

talented and beautiful.

[jds1991spies]

youre beautiful.

good job;)

[joeyhoeyca]

love this

[hopeforkate]

I didn't think this song could be covered so beautifully; I guess I was wrong.

[rachel2030]

ur gorgeous... and awesome voice to go along with it...

pursue ur talent hun

[EASYJANBOOM]

will you marry me my cell number is 00923335109642 dr sharif

[ninac31]

[SamHo777]

This song changes lives. Awesome choice.

[Sammydoodle14]

@SamHo777 so true. changed mine.

[dutkevitch]

[breakthestrain]

awesome choice of song! :D i like your rendition of it. keep it up!

[leftoversmusic]

Great version of of a great song...

[nickawilk]

Not to bad, tis is one of my favorite songs, great work.

[pwdossey418]

hey! i remember you from coyote ugly! awesome!

[recenello]

You are good. But just good. If you get serious voice lessons and practice what they teach you everyday, you will be great and possibly have a chance at getting big.

[musiluna]

love your voice

and your beautiful

what a plus...

[falconer333]

One of my favourites and really nice cover :)

[mushonhagaon]

You are very talented and pretty! you're gonna make it big for sure!

[krishna11147]

I Like the way you tune.

All the best dear.

Keep it up...!

Best Regaerds

Krishna

[Keyemzed82]

lovely  u r amazing

[Lure7]

WOW!! amazing =)

[gabriel7390]

Congratulations girl! Just perfect, fits your voice so well. Your singing just enhances your beauty... Hope you are really successful!

Kisses from Brazil!

P.s.: Can you please tell me what gear/software you use in your recording? Sound quality is just great, and I'd like to record some stuff that good too...

P.s. 2: I checked your other vids, why don't you try something from Crosby, Stills & Nash? They do such a great voice work, and it kinda follows your taste...

;*

[lizalizaloo]

i like your version better than thew original

simply beautiful! :)

[ouchyg]

SO it turns out you are all wrong and Krellze is right. Afterall, he said so and he knows because he is - well somebody really knowing I am sure...

BTW - saying she has "good looks" is also a positive thing so dont sell yourself short. Your practically a rainbow.

[mebaby94]

you have a really nice voice.

[dhvyse]

Great voice, gotta learn how to finger pick that song though. =)

[Krellze]

Wow. These comments just show how far good looks will get you. The only positive thing i have to say is that you have great taste in music.

[jedimouse]

not bad. I think the fact that you're hot is why people are shitting their pants over this cover, though, as it's pretty good but nothing mindblowing.

[acooke]

That was amazing, may be a sad song, but put me in a good mood :D

[bomberscheer]

your voice reminds me of maria taylor

[natepease111]

i think i love you <2

[esqu1m4l]

<2 <--- fail? lol

[johanncarv]

i just loved this cover , you're the best ;)

[chaoticoli09]

You're great =D

Best acoustic cover i've heard by far. The only thing I didn't like which you can't prevent at all is the pauses between the lyrics. Amazing voice =).

[xxladorna]

beautiful

[floatingtrains]

You have a great voice! I subscribed :)

[tkpb938]

Really, really good! Like damn, you have a nice voice.

[Necrofist45]

RIDICULE !!!

j'ai honte pour toi...un peu de modestie quand on massacre un chanson...

[Zacarinkas]

puta editora do caralho ^^

[Fuzzball000]

u amazed my dad and his coworkers!!! :D he was so amazed he showed me this video. amazing <3 :)

[4200lance]

your amazing!

[asteroid684]

I wish I could play like you.

[rebelwithoutapause25]

im sorry but i dont blike this much you dont need to sing so dramatically just keep to the melodyand dont oversing its sounds like an australian idol audition..or american idol i guess

[BackToGoAgain]

omg ur sooo good

[HIPandiDONTmeanHOP]

Very impressive. Gives me goosebumps...

[ichibearkills]

I have been, sadly and unfortunately used to encountering a terrible lot of interwebs musicians in the past. In agonizing truth, some people simply shouldn't sing. What a pleasant surprise though. You have quite a lovely range there, which I almost wished you had pushed if you are capable of such, (you sound capable). Your voice is classic, original, and strikingly beautiful, I do hope you continue your work love.

- Ichi

[speelyei]

Usually I watch these cover videos and just cringe... but this was well done. You have a real nice voice, nice job. Thanks for posting!

[bitcheznhos]

vocals are real good, interesting rendition. if i was at a party or a club and you did that i would have listened all the way through

[HITHEREFOLKS]

GIRL YOU've got TALENT ! I THINK YOU MIGHT HAVE A FUTURE in MUSIC ! seems like YOU PUT YOUR SOUL WITH THE SINGING.GOOD JOB !

[penguinsoulja96]

oh my god i think i just fell in loveee

[megustalaverde]

why dont any women like you live around here!

[mdornuincka]

I really liked her rendition of it. I am reading some of these comments and wondering where they came from!? Great voice and I think the guitar accentuates your soothing voice! great

[jackhale2k8]

vocals are beautiful

guitar is weak. too quiet, should of played lead
