If we're talking just about vocal capabilities Alexz sings it better and that is no contest, but if we're talking about genre preferences I like Lights version better.
For all you stupid people talking shit about Alexz. Just shut up, your just dissing her because she covered Lights song and you just have to find a way to say something rude. No, you don't have to like this version but you don't have to be cruel. You know nothing about Alexz and she's actually very talented. So is Lights. So shut up and listen to whatever version you like better because everyone is sick of your shit. Jusst sayin.
@Elia12397 You really think Lights would like you attacking another artist? I'm so glad Alexz has mature fans who dont attack Lights, just because they both sing the same song.
I'd never heard of this song from Alexz or LIGHTS until recently. Honestly, though, I don't like either version. Too standard pop and nothing memorable. I love LIGHTS with all of my heart, but she has MUCH better songs, released or even ones like this "The Pity Scene" probably being the best example.
@0neRoomDisco I'm guessing you didn't watch "Instant Star'" which was what this song was created for, it was suppose to be a happy upbeat song the was song at a charity event.
crap:/ i'm really sorry, it was a joke. please don't stop liking that friggen' awesome girl cos of me. i haaate it when fans are stupid and obnoxious and are total meanies >.< if i didn't have anything nice to say about alexz i shouldn't have said anything at all. but i did, and i ended up being what i hate and giving LIGHTS bad name): really sorry.
that's actually really obnoxious, and why compare them? they're two different people with a different fan base so not everyone's gonna have the same opinion. it's better to just listen to the version you like and leave the other one alone c:
everyone that's saying that LIGHTS wrote it for alexz to sing on instantstar, LIGHTS wrote it for HERSELF. alexz covered it. but since alexz was more famous at the time, she got the credz and fame for it being her song, when it's not. it's rightfully LIGHTS' song:) <33333
@LiliputLemonade Uhm Nope Lights wrote this with Luke Mcmaster who produced and wrote most of the songs for Instant star, Lights also wrote "Here We Go Again" for Instant Star. Alexz didnt cover it Lights gave it to Instant Star, and Lights recorded it for "Songs From Instant Star 4" because Alexz Johnson was only allowed to have four songs on the soundtrack because she was signed to Epic Records at the time.
@Peacepple101 Im a Lights fan, but anyone with a brain knows Alexz is a better singer, she has a 4 octave range, and was deemed the west coast Celine Dion.
i thought i hated her for playing the role of erin and being able to play the girlfriend of my baby.but i look up to her and she makes me bisexual.every song she writes sounds like me.stop reading my diary!!!!
okay this first page of comments is 3/4s full of alexz disses.
let me go on the record and say that no matter what anyone thinks, I guarantee you, you watch the episode of instant star that this song is featured in....you will fall in love with alexz, jude, tommy, and instant star.
I researched and I read that this was one of the featured songs. I don't know if I should really believe it, for I had not heard it in the first season...and it is to early on the second as to know...
@AnaGomez1994 this song was featured in the show. i dont remember which season, but it was when she went to some tv show and like went crazy on how much she loved tommy. everyone called her crazy and she didnt want to go out anymore, it was when she first met that crazy fan that tied her up in her basement and write a song. 2am :)
@NaomiHa thanks, I was very confused back then...I knew about the basement, but I didn't know about this. I feel kind of idiotic, 'cause I commented and I have not watched the whole show...sorry :$
im sorry i was so rude. i was ticked already and anyways i ment if people were insulting me or calling me names i would stand up 4 myself. Sorry if anyone ws offended. :)
OK.. general rule the covers are always worse.. but tbh I like lights version more. Alexz is beautiful, but.. Theres something about Lights that draws me towards hers.
Lights wrote the song in the first place so I think it's pretty clear that she understands it more. I prefer Light's version but Alexz does use more emotion in it.
:P lights made it waay better!!
