  • I wasn't sure at first, but I think I like this. Some of the pronunciations & some of the notes you chose weren't exactly what I would've picked, but that's what makes an artist original. You have a lovely voice & great style! This is one of my favorite songs. Very interesting spin on the song. You have a style similar to the late Amy Winehouse. Keep it up chick.

  • Not just a beautiful voice, but also a beautiful face!

  • Good song. Love the voice.

    But its not a 'gothic lullabye' it was written for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. Written in 1968.

  • Damn girl

  • what an awful noise...

  • this was really good. you have a great future ahead of you!!

  • Very nicely done. Great voice too.

  • i looooove this your voice is sooooo cute :)

  • Your voice reminds me of a 60's quality somewhat like eartha kitt. A really good job

  • I have to say this was very nice

  • really very nice

  • Sorry you just killed this song.

  • Nice :-)

  • Ur voice is amazing awsome. But honestly, ur voice is to exotic for this song.

  • @TheMIEProject - I disagree! I think she has a great voice, very entrancing... and I think it gives a nice new feel to this song. In fact, if it was available for sale, I'd DL it to my ipod. :)

  • /watch?v=aeLTELLLtxI&feature=f­eedu

  • amazing voice without a shadow of a doubt. but the best thing is you smile during the song. not a lot of people do that, its an amazing quality you use very well. Lost count of the repeat count for this now.

    keep up the good work

  • I am on the fence for this one.. you have a great voice but it's meant to make you go to sleep. It is meant to be a gentle lullaby but it sounds to a bit like a pop song? You have an amazing voice - Just my opinion.

  • loved it.

  • you have an absolutely beautiful voice!

  • It is a gothic lullabye written by the Sherman Brothers. Why is everyone bickering about it?

  • hello...love your singing...tis heavenly....although.....the song was written by Robert and Richard Sherman....its not gothic....

  • I wish I hadn't found this so late. You're something, and I don't just mean the singing.

  • very good

  • amazing version - why dont you try america's got talent?

  • written in 1968 for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang by the Sherman brothers who wrote several major film scores for Disney

  • Beautifully sung, and you have a smile that is like watching a Serengeti sunrise. I expect you to be a successful singer. :)

  • fab luv it...

  • that was lovely ... very lovely voice, well donexx

  • Your voice is almost as cute as you

  • You did wonderful but it was written for chitty cchitty bang bang and sung by Dick Van Dyke.

  • i love this song :) you did a great job!

  • this really brings back so many childhood memories!!!! :') thank you for reviving this song.... ;'D

  • Wow, you have an explosive voice. Very soulful.

  • Ur not beiber...

  • AWESOME!!!

  • We're sinqinq this sonq in chior, i hate it.

    But you make it sound qoooood. :)

  • U REALLY LOOK AS THOUGH U LOVE SINGING EVER THOUGHT OF GOING ON A TV SONG CONTEST.........I SUGGEST YOU DO ;)

  • BEAUTIFULLY PLAYED.....x

  • total rape of this song

  • JUST WOW!

  • I think it's good that you made it your own, but it lost the haunting quality. It needs to have that sad, but hopeful, haunting feel to it. You can't just sing a song like this, no matter how good you may be. Each line has a slightly different feel to it, find out what you should feel for each line and I think that you help you a lot. Professional opera singers and other singers usually spend at least a year working on a single song so they can get each little emotion out.You have a nice voice

  • i love it. i love your voice. its definately something i want more of.

  • Nice one. Love your voice, wish you all the best xx

  • you have a great voice and a resemblance to Pixie Lott :o

  • Bravo *applauds*

  • whoa, this is amazing!

  • i love your voice

  • really good xx

  • you have a beautiful voice and a pretty face but the gothic tune and does not match the way you sang the song...

  • fail

  • This was a beautiful version. I loved it!!!

  • Did you know there is a hushabye mountain

  • Wow. Awesome. I love how you sing it, and the whole attitude when you sing it is refreshing. :) You're confident in your abilities, as you should be, but not cocky. Keep it up.

  • Dear Miss,

    I've now seen all the videos you have posted and (WOW)!!! I'll say it again..you've got it all. Listen to Nancy Sinatra sing "You only live twice" (sing that one sometime) You even have that look she had.. and what a crush I had on her!! I came close to telling her dad (Frank) that but was afraid he'd kill me..haha. Keep going strong, and I mean STRONG with your gift to entertain. your friend, James, Screen Actors Guild, AMPAS

    P.S take advice from only those close to you!!!

  • Dear young Lady, Keep singing!! Your persona and delivery are very good. Keep up the hard work, i've been singing for a long long time....you never stop learning. Have a long and wonderful career; I'll forward this to my Casting Director. Most truly yours, T H James, Screen Actors Guild & Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences

  • i could fall asleep to your voice anytime of day :)

  • your voice is great, but your tone doesn;t suit the song... good attempt though hun

  • who the hell are you! you need a record label asap.

    thats an awesome voice and an awesome version

    well done

  • You have a beautiful voice. Never stop singing!

  • wow. That was beautiful. Great job sweetie. You sing your heart out. :)

  • I love this Its a wonderful old song you have re-awakened in your own way. This is what keeps old classics alive. New talent showing us just how wonderful they were. <3:C

  • Holy crap this was good!

  • Sorry, but this is about the weakest performance of this song on You Tube. It is a lullaby for children and your sexually suggestive way of singing, spoils it. Further, it demonstrates your lack of range of voice in that you avoided the notes which would require you to project your voice. Singing a song like this in a "Brittney Spears" mannerism is off putting. I would love to hear you sing it again in a gentle voice demonstrating your range, in keeping the the audience is intended for children.

  • ITS HUSHABYE MOUNTAIN..O.o

    ......WITH A JAZZY VOICE...O.o

    .......Im going to cry....

    ...AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH­HHHHHHHHH!!!

    .......I love your voice.....

    let me steal it! pwease XD

  • if you sing it for me, i can sleep very good.. :P

    can you come over to holland and sing it for me xD

    haha

    xx Michelle

  • wow I am very surprised this video doesn't have 1/billion+ views...any one else? shes got looks, move, groove, voice, what else do you want?!

  • Say you really are very good, I'm not just being nice here! You would make it through to Hollywood no problem on AI if you ask me. Very Billy Holiday~ with something else thrown in! You should really think about a career in singing, I would pay!

  • Lovely rendition Julie :D Check out the cover of Hushabye Mountain by The Zoup, just uploaded recently. Search it up!

  • your really pritty, i woulnt have te guts to post myself singing

  • Hi, so I know you did this two years ago, but Iwas wondering if you remembered where you got the instrumental for this?? It would very greatly appreciated if you could help me. If you can't then it's okay too.

    This was beautiful, by the way. You're very very talented and very original.

  • I really enjoy this!!!

  • O.M.G... i was shocked. this is simply amazing.

  • A true modern day Siren, beautiful sound

  • Comment removed

  • doing this song for choir and i am sooo good

  • *speakless*

  • Very creative alterations to the melodic line (and I mean that in a good way, not sarcastic). You make a very good jazz singer. I'd like to see you explore your upper range more though! I'm sure your head voice is just as beautiful. Accessing it would make your version of this song even more interesting.

  • Amazin!

    Do you sell CDs?

  • too*** :D

  • this is supposed to be a simple and pretty lullaby, i think you added to much attitude :(

    but you have a great voice for today's kind of music :)

  • yehs i agree i think you added to much attitude otherthan that it was nice though :)

  • your an amazing singer!

  • scuze me...you are beautiful! Love your tone...Do you do a cappella? And are you in the northeast?

  • It's not a gothic lullabye! It's from a kids film!

  • @XVampirettes it was a gothic lullabye way before it was ever in a kid's film!

  • @bjosie It wasn't. It was written by the Sherman Brothers especially for the 60s film version of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang. It was written in the style of a lullabye, with a circus/ music box influence due to the scenes that are in the film about a travelling show, and it may seem gothic, however, this is far from gothic. It is a lullabye in it's purest form. Although, the minor can make it seem gothic.

    Well sung, by the way, very Amy Winehouse/ Duffy

  • @bjosie No it wasn't.... it was written for Chitty Chitty Bang Bang by the Sherman Brothers. Those guys were Disney, not Goth (CCBB wasn't a Disney Movie, but the style is the same. If you've never seen it, it's worth a view. You have a nice voice, and I like this version, but know the song's history!

  • @bjosie Sorry ma'am, but this was written by the Sherman brothers, and was made for chitty chitty bang bang. look it up

  • @bjosie Dick Van Dyke song from CCBB... if its gothic...then umm... "prove it"

  • your voice is quite unique.... but this song isnt all that well for you. this is a true definition of a classic, and only TRUE TRUE singers can blow this song away. better luck next time! :)

  • This is a remarkable rendition of one of my favourite songs ever. I love it.

    You live the song -  make it your own.

    I'd buy it!

    lol

  • your going places how old are you? x

  • @evaisbuff turning 21! subscribe please!

  • so your 20 ??? you look younger! will do

  • oh i was younger when I made this video!

  • you made me cry :(

  • the original is better... it's not sung the right way...

  • You have such a beautiful voice, such soul. Bravo. You have to make an mp3.

  • Not right, sensual rendition of a song for children.

  • @wicksgang Thanks for your comment and for viewing. What's interesting actually is most of the popular children's stories we know, began as sensual renditions of very inappropriate stories that were sexually-charged for their time. Snow white, Sleeping beauty, etc...they were all originally written as quite provocative. It's all in the interpretation I guess. I study sexual diversity and we touch upon a lot of opinions of this sort. I would not have sung it this way for a child, of course.

  • i like your style of singing. very amy winehouseish. Beautiful.

  • wow your amazing. i can sing but man your great. soo much betta than me!! i love you!!!

  • Girl you have much talent you should seriously consider entering a talent or singing contest ! x

  • its not fucking gothic!!!

  • @gigglez55555 lol. I believe it is. I said gothic because I wanted to credit the music that I found on youtube for this video. And it did say, "gothic" lullabye. I was just properly referencing my source.

  • You have a really great voice, some honestly amazing talent. I just don't think the jazzy way you sing it suits the song, no offense, it's just that it's supposed to be a soft almost hypnotic lullaby, and your voice is strong and jazzy, maybe a little pop-y too. which is great, you sound awesome, just, not the way I feel this song should be sun =/

    but that's just me :P

  • @SailorPokemoon i definitely agree with you.

  • Wonderful, you have an amazing voice! I love this song and you really did it justice - thanks for sharing :)

  • Great talent, one to watch for the future.

    You got a Myspace page?

  • woo you got talent

  • me encanta, eres muy buena.

  • CCBB is my favourite film and this song, is my favourite song from that film. I usually dislike any deviation from the original but this, your version, was fabulous. Well done and very, very well sung.

  • its an amazing version :) xxxx

  • lol, the camera isnt the point, its her voice, and its great one of my fav versions of this song :P

  • wow, you are an amazing singer! this is amazing! wow

  • i will pay you lavish amounts to come and sing that to me in Ireland! lol

  • should sing more jazz song... you have a nice voice

  • very very nice. very Gabriella Cilmi. Would be better if you sang the song just for me, in the nude, covered in maple syrup.

  • lmao what the hell lol

  • You have a nice voice but I can't decide if you're trying to jazz up this song or sing it sexy. Either way it doesn't work for me. It's supposed to be a ballad sung to kids but yours sounds too sexy for how this song was written. You sound like you want to have sex over it or something. It sounds dreadful where you place the emphasis on the words. Sing it like a ballad on how it was intended to be. Find another song to sing sexy!

  • ur real pretty and have a really good voice, but u should get another camera, urs is awful

  • wooooooooow :O!

    ur voice isnt for american idol its for imidiate production!!!

    omg i love ur voice it's amazing!!!

    jazzy...

  • You have a great voice, but the song isn't meant to be the way you sung it. You ruined it. It's meant to be soft, and gentle. If I was a baby, this wouldn't get me to sleep.

    Dick Van Dyke did it the way it was meant to be done, he put emotion and feeling into it.

  • i agree aswell. like spazzalou said your voice is gorgeous but its not meant for this song. pick something by vannessa carlton or something. -and yea...  ....you kinda did ruin it. N.O. lol

  • i think a cover has not always to be a copy of the original song and its great that she sings it her own style. i bet she didnt sing it to get you to sleep, but to give you the opportunity to listen to her wonderful, pure voice.

  • but in singing this song, she isn't really showing off the true potential of her voice.

  • yours is well better than dick van dyke ! well beter

    why not try some different songs

    try going on da x factor u would be well good i mean it

  • i like ur version, i love ur voice and the song is very mezmorizing, i wish i could sound like u, ur a big inspiration to me!!!

  • wow im impressed

  • you are MUCH better than that dick van dyke!

    I adore your voice.. its so emotionful

  • Comment removed

  • your voice is for ''american idol'' i would buy your songs.

  • hey try watching a girl called Amber singing this.. u might find that she sings this the way its ment to be sang.. but you have a good style i guess

  • you';re really good u have a real quirkyness t ur voice and it really suits the song

  • That was brilliant =)

    I love love love the original by Dick van Dyke....your version was great tho :)

  • I loved this..:)

  • you have a gorjas voice :D ur very pretty :D

    but im sorry to say that you ruined the song just a tad :D well not just a tad a whole lot :D

  • your voice is amazing:) by the way where did you get the backing music from?

  • really hauntin tune..and u have such a good voice..5/5 great vid!!

  • cooooooooooool. I love this song with your vioce. Job job!

    shawn melo:)

  • Great interpretation of the song and great voice!!

  • all you need is a better mic and a little bit of an echo and you've got a youtube hit. :)

  • You have an amazing voice. I love this song. Your version is a zillion times better than mine! I put my version up to check something off my "bucket list" tho.

  • you have a really beautiful voice. I really love the orriginal, but you've brought the song to life in your own way I like it. :)

  • Very beautiful (you and the song). You have the cutest smile.

    I love what you did with the song.

  • i would so fall asleep to this if i didn't have to study hahaha

    good job

  • wow your voice is awsome i love it  xoxox

  • wow

    your voice it's great!!

    i love it

  • Oooo I love your voice and this song. It's really different from the original in a really good way.

  • Adored this, I love your voice, quite jealous! ( trust me its hard to be nice how jealous i am) ok... its crap really... hehe

    no seriously, I adore this!

  • beautiful voice

  • I loved it! It's different and I think it suits your voice really nicely. It's so jazzy and cheeky I love it it's great! Beautiful!

  • good voice, but i agree with some others, the musical arrangement doesn't suit your voice. get a three piece jazz trio (drummer, bass player, piano or trumpet), and you'd be amazing

  • some nice billie holiday phrasing

  • i love your voice, but i'm not sure it fits with the song...i kinda felt like there was an attempt to seduce me by way of a lullabye...but you sing great. ^.^

  • *BANG*

    the song falls to the floor and starts bleeding

    you walk away with a gun in your hand having just murdered that song

  • agreed. almost made me cry. it hurt to hear my favorite song in the world murdered...sad...

  • lose the music

    get a piano player...they are cheap

    repeat this venture...

    win grammy

    Take me to dinner {OK...this is fiction...but plausible ]

  • hahahah thanks so much. that means lots to me.

  • WOW! you are amazing!! i love your voice!!!

  • Daaamn!

  • whoa! frick! i love how you put that jazz feeling in your voice into the song. AMAZING! XD

  • Fine voice and looks. You'll go far I'm sure.

    I'd love to hear you sing a Norah Jones track actually!
