[djbestmann]

[koby9111]

when does her new album come out?

[djbestmann]

It's out now :P it's an awesome album, Me and Armini, it was released on the 8th September,

[SendInTheBrowns]

This is pure and beatiful - Her voice moves me.

[LillianLove1994]

She is extremely talented.

[BlackAngusYoung]

I like her voice and phrasing. Reminds me of Melanie sometimes.

To those commenting on her lack of emotional link to the song: Please note that this is recorded when she was 18 or 19 years old! Please listen to her newer songs, especially from the album Fisherman's Woman.

Yeah,Tom Waits' original will always be superior, but I heard this version first. I guess it will always be closer to my heart than his :)

[LilyLovesLabyrinth]

@Scriabin28 Wow, haha. Its crazy how musical taste can change in 5 months. I used to think she was great,

and just a couple days ago my boyfriend had me listen to a lot of Tom Wait's music. I fell in love with him,

And now I can see that this woman really is nothing compared to him.

[LillianLove1994]

@Scriabin28 Oh, well I totally get that. You have a good point.

You're right, she has a good voice but there's no emotional link to what she's singing.

I didn't really notice that before you pointed that out,

[OhDangitsAng225]

accidentally came across this n its a great song:)

[Scriabin28]

@LillianLove1994 No, I don't, LillianLove1994! I think she has a good voice for lightweight pop music, but at an emotional level I find her singing limited in expression and lacking in life and variety. To cover Tom Waits convincingly, you need to be a good storyteller and have an emotional "range" to your voice, and I think this cover shows she's lacking in both.

[LillianLove1994]

@Scriabin28 You don't think she is?

[Scriabin28]

@LillianLove1994 Compared to what?!

[Scriabin28]

So phenomenally emotionally mono-dimensional compared to Tom. Yuck...
