I love Hayley, but Loreena is incredible and I prefer her version of this song.

@ObsessiveSimons I like both versions, but if I had to choose, I'd be with you.

@KimyaEn I also agree with you, might just be the fact that she can't have had as much of a connection with the song. Coming from her it just sounds like pretty words :/

I love this! I like how Hayley's arrangement has a different feel than Loreena's. Music isn't supposed to always stay the same. It's supposed to change with the performer. Both recordings are amazingly good.

@KimyaEn I agree. This does not have the same power as Loreenas. Not even close. Hayley has a good voice but it does not have the substance Loreenas has for this song. Anyone who thinks otherwise needs to do a serious comparison.

Maybe this girl is singing much better than Loreena. She has a clear and beautiful voice. But I couldn't find any soul in this version. Loreena's voice just effects me very much. So I still prefer the original one.

Urdolf. I'm not 100 percent sure but I think the harmony is Hayleys little sister.
