Camile Velasco- Billie Holiday 'Easy Living' Cover (CamileTV)

Good afternoon to all the CamileTV viewers...this week's episode has me singing Billie Holiday's "Easy Living."

I chose this song because it sounds so different from all the previous CamileTV episodes, and if you watched last weeks episode, you know Billie Holiday's in my Top 5 for greatest female vocalists.

Enjoy the episode and have a fun and safe weekend!!!

Love!

"Easy Living" -Billie Holiday.

I think you have a very good voice, but I have to be honest and say I don't really like what you did with this song. It's like you're singing it in the style of today, but I really like the old style more. No offense of course (I'm sure somebody will thumbs down me anyway just because i'm not praising you even though I'm being sincere and not impolite), but I gotta say I like Billie's style with this song a lot more. Good voice though, keep singin :)

i still think shes better than jasmine trias.

jasmine shouldnt of gotten that far in A.I.

[jahlaune]

she can sing! But the runs really distracted from the lyrics this song has lyrics that have to be imngested all the runs you mess it up and its dustracting. Just sing from the heart straight and well feel what you tryin to put down...good luck

awesome

Hmm, you have a nice voice. But there is nothing I hate more, than when someone messes with an original, I kinda see it as an insult. Personally, I think you should of kept it original and tried singing it like Billie, but whatever makes you happy I guess.

@belrocksg I couldn't agree more.

@JohnnySoprano87 billie's style is more honest and just singing it as opposed to this which is more TRYING HARD TO SING WELL instead of just being good and sounding nice. Too much christina aguilera going on. vibroto doesnt make you good!

Whenever someone else sings a great song they always add their own melodies... :/

Hi,

You've an interesting and unique voice; makes me want to hear more. But you do not know the song. You are very "off" early in the song where you sing the words "easy to give" and you repeat the mistake throughout the song in every chorus, a serious no-no. Also, you are straining, and forcing a difficult and overly stylistic approach to a great simple tune. You must learn the song without style first before you can add style, but style should come natural.
