  • Omg , this was amazing!.

  • My gosh, that was beautiful.

  • What's up with the weird expressions she kept making? It was a little over the top.

  • omg...wow..you literally made me cry..this was amazing but now i need a tissue..its like you channeled Judy for 4:03 but for all phases of her life...beautiful

  • @RomanRoyale Thank you deeply. I’m truly touched that it rang true for you. It felt that way for me -it really was one take.

  • I just fell in love with her, and I'm gay!

  • oh my . . from early to mid to late Judy. Ooooh Bravo!

  • this made me cry

  • she should do Israel's version of this song :P

  • BRAVISIMO!....

  • I love it its just the faces she makes :/ ???

  • Why are you not in films?

  • 3:41 neighbour yelling SHUT THE HELL UP

  • this is so creepy :/

  • I'm blown away. You're definitely an inspiration.

  • AMAZING! Truly one of my favorite videos on youtube.

  • I'd love to know what you were thinking while singing this.. that made you cry. I'd just love to know what it was :]

  • you don't sound like judy garland, no one can except her.

  • Beautiful, amazing, SPOT-ON. I can promise you, Amy, you aren't the only one with teary eyes. :')

  • she sounds like the child version of Judy at the start and sounds like older Judy towards the end, I think that's what she was going for, hence the crying. she may have been trying to make a larger statement here.

  • @introspy I don't understand anything of the message she's trying to bring through, I admit. The only thing I'm sure of is that her eyes are completely empty, in every single video, and that most of the times the characters she interprets end up crying, even when this is not needed.

    I find the way she articulates pretty irritating, also.

    I do not understand what she is trying to transmit and I would actually love to.

    In any case, this is not something I'd like to watch on stage.

  • @LaraCantos there was a useful comment that someone else made which can be summarized "the evolution of Judy's career through her most famous work". The rest is just aesthetics. Either way she's an artist trying to make a statement, it doesn't have to be everyone's cup of tea. 

  • beautiful. justice done.

  • This is absolutely magical.

  • I've loved the Wizard of Oz ever since I was 2 years old. And this song calmed me down with all of my health problems and such growing up. And as you can probably guess how much the song means to me.

    Well, Amy. You did it. You really touched me. You were like the spirit of Judy Garland. You did wonderfully. And that's a lot coming from someone who's listened to the song a million times over. The crying set the emotion perfectly. You deserve to be on broadway or something of the like.

  • amazing and if she messed up in anything its cuz( i belive) shes crying

  • amazing

  • Amazing at the beginning, then got out of control. When volume changes, you have to grab each note on spot, not let the notes drag you out. I love your raw emotion coming out at the end. Thank you, a very beautiful tribute.

  • It was amazing in the beginning but towards the middle.. TOO MUCH

  • I've had farts that sound nicer than that

  • The beginning was amazing honestly it was silk but towards the end it kinda sounded like Jim Bailey's version

  • Whoa. Amazing. Plus you look kinda Japanese in this video.

  • Wow! You left us speechless.

  • my mom couldnt stop crying.... you pulled my heart strings♥

  • I'm inlove! -girl crush!

  • I KNEW IT! i just watched your video teaching how to learn any accent and i knew right away that your 5 steps also can apply to singing, so then i knew you must be able to sing just as good as you change you accent

  • At 1:32 I friken laughed do hard!!!!!! Her face is like a friken donkey!!!!!!!! Hahahahah:)

  • great singer!! but at 1:20 my brother jizzed in his pants...

  • You are EPIC!!! Wow!!! It's the best version I've ever seen!!!

  • You are awesome! Luv u

  • very very good...but i feel like it was a bit too much over the top.

  • she scares me when she opens her mouth very much ._.

  • I know this is slightly off topic...but can someone or amy do a video on how to do this hair it would be really helpful for a short film i'm going to be in soon thank you :D

  • this turned into a cheese-fest at 1:20, I had to stop watching.

  • Comment removed

  • This gave me chills! So good!

  • that started off great. The crying really ruined it.

  • wow. beautiful tribute. you are more than talented. i felt your emotions. made me cry.

    bravo amy.

    judy garland spot on.

  • I can guarantee you that each and every one of these queens who criticize

    Ms. Walker have no talenet WHATSOEVER which they would put up to public

    purview. If they do, I ask them to create a link to their video...I thought not. It's easy to be a tired old queen kvetching someone else's talent when no talent is possessed by the critic. Miss Thing, your pitiful attempts at belittling a talent far in access of your own is pointless, pathetic, and points to your sorry lack of manners and civility.

  • @4gregorysf wow, you are one cynical asshole

  • Sure, but can she do Marnie Nixon?

  • I was kind of hoping one of the plates in the background would explode during a high note... ^_^

  • I'm sorry but this was just bizarre. I don't know anything about Judy Garlands personality or mental health but what I gathered from the "colors" you portrayed, she must have needed some type of antipsychotics or mood stabilizers.

  • @StateOfGrace She thinks it's cool to cry in every video... Sigh...

  • She sounds nothing like Judy Garland. Wake up you fucking groupies.

  • why is she crying? she's changing the whole vibe of the original song and messing up her voice in the process....

  • @jenshu7 That's very true, but this is how it should be sung today. Because when people think of Judy Garland today, they think of her fucked up life

  • I actually do not think she sounds incredibly like her. Judy had a very distinct tone that Amy does not. Obviously still an amazing performance, but I would never mistake her voice for Judy's.

  • @pluggers100 Thank you for saying that!!! This chick sucks compared to Judy Garland! no offense... she is ok

  • Amy!You are the best buffoon/clown:) in the world!

  • She must've loved Judy!

  • i dont trust her... it's very affect

  • very emotional performance, bravo...

  • you look like meryl streep :O

  • the stages of Judy and her evolution of her interpretation of the lyric; Captured! Nailed

  • i like the chronology of her years

  • OMG,that was incredible,the singing and the crying.Just wow,awesome job Amy!!!

  • THAT. IS. AMAZING. :O

  • Whoa… the evolution of Judy's career and life through her most famous piece of work. You nailed it!

  • @gaiapurpure that's what I got from this as well......glad someone else gets it.

  • Instant like! Amy is amazing! :O

  • you're so freaking amazing that it makes me want to cry

  • This is incredible! Anyone who doesn't think so clearly doesn't know what talent is...

  • This video has never failed to send chills down my spine and bring tears to my eyes. Being an actress as well, you and Judy Garland both inspire me to no end. You really do a fabulous tribute to her.

  • did she just yawn at 1:00???

  • pretty amazing but the last part was WAY too long and it started to sound weird.

  • please please please go on broadway!

    you have an incredible voice, several as a matter of fact :)

  • one word: brilliant

  • Well, I discovered Ms. Amy Valker a couple days ago, and I am knocked out. You have a musician's ear, an writer's insight into character, an actor's ability to submerge yourself into that character, and an artistic sensibility that is so smart. Love it! All the best.

  • Best dramatic Art!!

  • Most def not Judy! I love Judy Garland and this is horrid!

  • this has to be one of the most amazing things i've ever seen on youtube! much better than repeatedly watching people fall off skateboards and vomit on each other!!

  • Nice.

  • Simply brilliant.

  • Goosebumps !!! Truly Incredible !

  • Beautiful! So impressive!

  • i am just mesmerised by you.

  • This is a difficult song to pull off well because of its simplicity... very nice!

  • Remarkable.

  • Fantastic!

  • you make me live

  • hahahhahah =(((((

  • I just can't stop being amazed by you...

  • You overdid this one lady.

  • @mjpw12

    So did Judy. That's the point.

  • a true talent! sooo inspiring!!!

  • look very classic here luv it! thanks for sharing. :)

  • You ARE from the 40's! Haha!

  • Your singing is amazing, you are great at sounding like other people but the quality of your impersonations gets lost because your facial expressions kill it. Your eyes look rather crazed

  • The most beautiful acapela version of this song I have ever seen/heard, amazing!!

  • scared the shit out of my nephew!!!LOL!

  • if anyone else was singing and making these kinds of videos i would say . this is gay and turn it off. its just your so damn good at what your doing that , things that i dont care for at all. i cant get enough

  • ooh i get it shes gettin older.. i thot u was gona have a stroke or suttin. i got scared for a min there

  • beautiful..thank you

  • beautiful

  • Dorophelia.

  • Dorothy has lost all hope!

  • Another masterpiece by Amy.

  • Omg, you sound just like her.

  • My eyes water when I sing, too. xD

  • You are one of the most creative and talented performers of this era.

  • WHY ARE YOU SO TALENTED?!?!?!

  • Wow... You're so talented, this was amazing!

  • yeah... i totally agreee... such make-up ))) such an image.... such a beautiful face, such exciting mimics...... Amy u are a jewel talent :)

  • Ok. I have to admit, sometimes when you say super hippie things I get put off, but Amy. Let me tell you (and I'm sure many other people have) that I am beyond impressed. This is so spot on for Judy Garland - the way she sings, and opens her mouth and even moves her hands and her big doe eyes when she was young - and also I'm jealous of you're being able to cry. This was more beautiful than beautiful. Please, please do something with your talent. Keep on keepin on. Much love to ya sis

  • And crowds go wild for Justin Bieber.

  • It's sad that beautiful, raw talent like this stays hidden from the mainstream, yet seen by many, many people online, and liked by almost all of them (don't let the haters get you down, Amy).

    This was one of the best homages to Judy Garland I've heard and seen, and your raw emotion makes this even more touching. Loved every moment!

  • You sound just like she did

  • HAHA i lovvvee how she's making all the weird aces judy always makes!

  • stop singing and clean the damn floor!! x

  • Darling,I hope we all see you on the big screen someday and you'll make us bust in

    tears and next second to laught till we'll wet ourselves.

  • stages of my emotions: o_O O_O @_@ i found myself in tears by the end of this it's creepy

  • Your so good, but your mouth is dodgy :S

  • ....wow....you really are amazing

  • You are an inspirational Aussie!

  • @MavericKahwiJones She's not an aussie mate

  • Bravo!!!!!!!!

  • beautiful. you're an incredible performer, on par with the likes of Judy herself.

  • u made me shed a tear... truly moving...

  • This is absolutely beautiful, and you, Amy Walker, are a genius. <3

  • NUTS! A stupid remark got a thumbs up from me that I can't retract - I'm so sorry! Great vids Amy, you have more talent in your little finger than half the so-called A-Listers of today! Good on you - LOVING your vids! =D

  • I'd love to be your neighbor e__e

  • brava ,great range and emotion.and don't pay too much attention to the negative comments here:youtube seems to attract its share of small minded people.Live your dream

  • Such raw emotion...

  • look at her mouth open so big XD

  • That was REALLY good !!!! sounded like judy garlind

  • That was great! I'm addicted to your vids, they're really helping me with my Drama A Level!

  • I love that this video started out sounding like a young Judy Garland and then started sounding like her when she got older. Bravo, Miss Walker. 

  • Comment removed

  • I used to do 'Over the Rainbow' impressions back in the days when my voice was high enough to so so!

  • bright eyes

  • what are you crying about,you are crying about something

  • distant

  • im a gentleman,

  • hello Amy you care about things

  • an absolute beauty

  • Excellent portrayal of Miss Garland- from beginning to end. You have all of her life's sorrow squeezed into one song, and it's honestly amazing. You're rather fabulous, Miss Walker. Really.

  • You're very good, but no one can sing like Judy used to, not even Liza...

  • good rendition, kind of off after the first verse and weird facial expressions. Kind of look drunk.... sorry. Your other vids are great :)

  • a little slow, but still amazing

  • beautiful

  • During the mid part.....it seems you are yelling.......I think this may be because you have a bad mic....it doesnt pick up the louder voice nicely....

    I like your beginning part more.

  • I was absolutely terrified the entire time!!!!!! but i liked it

  • its a heartache nothing but a heartache love until your arms break,it aint wise to need someone

  • that wink with your right eye,

  • that was really awesome dear, you are great, I hope someone discovers you soon.

  • Why arent you fricken Famous!!!!!!

  • it was lovely the first verse went a bit weird going into the second verse ....sorry

  • amazing

  • hey you your lovely

  • no eye contact, deep sadness

  • Absolute sheer class. I seriously think that you are an AMAZING actress. Few people would be able to do this as astonishngly well as you did it in my opinion. Bravo Amy, Bravo!!!

  • She's kinda scary. Like a crazy person almost. I love her!

  • you have big eyes

  • i love all of your videos, but why do you look like your about ready to commit suicide?

  • umm i dont think Judy SCREAMED at the camera while singing...

  • so..... why don't I see you on TV  man... you are sooooo good not to mention very pretty as well., would love to hire you for a party.... gAY MEN would love you.... keep up the cool videos....

  • you should be famous :)

  • you are amazing! please don't ever stop singing or acting.

  • Amazing. Very good intonation, btw

  • Is it me, or does she really look a little bit like Meryl Streep??

  • over-rated

  • If I was just listening to this- not looking at the vid- this would be very convincing as Judy.

  • I love the way you displayed Judy from her young age through her life in this song. It was clever and I love it :D

  • shes da best, yinz agree?

  • i like the way you stuck out your lips like Judy Garland did. i made it very effective.

  • I just balled like a child! I love Judy, and this really captured her. congrats

  • BRILLIANT!!!!

  • Oh my gosh...where did you go to school? I want to be just as good as you someday, except in a guy version.

  • You are terrific. 

  • gorgeous

  • how loveley is she

  • nice
