Light On cover video (yeah, not a very creative title, I know)
SEPTEMBER 28, 2008, 9:43 am
Critics can say whatever they want, but this song takes some vocal acrobatics to perform, which I realised upon giving it a shot. It took several takes and I still can't switch from the bridge to the lower register smoothly!
ETA: Thanks guys for your comments and feedback. Hopefully DC will have an acoustic version of this song for us to listen to real soon!!

SERIOUS TALENT
you're right, your LO contest version is even better. And don't ban me from the site, but I like your tender acoustic version better than DC's rocked out version! Your voice is so smooth and expressive, and you have great range. You remind me of Lisa Loeb - and not just because of the fashion specs. You deserve to be flown to LA to perform a duet! I would definitely buy your album - so get to work!

Great Cover
This was posted in the dc42.com forums and I had no idea you were also on the DCO forums. Congratulations on a great cover.
I've been a fan of the song almost from the start (after the initial WTF? after the first listen). You're acoustic version is definitely another great reason to love this song.

I was ready to not like a cover of this song, but you did an amazing job. I love it!
Amazing!
Left a message on your youtube page, but then found you here too ..... so just wanted to say you're very talented! Great accoustic version .... absolutely loved it!
thank you!
I just left you a comment over at YouTube but then I found out you're a member here.
Thanks so much for that cover, you sounded gorgeous and I love having this new side of Light On to listen to.

Beautiful!
Great job! I thought this cover is your best yet of all three. Your interpretation of the song is great. I thought it is a great song for you. You have a nice higher register, IMHO. Keep on bringing us more...plz.

Caving in...
Awesome!
You did a beautiful version of the song, I love it even more now!
Beautiful Voice!
Thank you so much for your fantastic version of LO. You are very talented! I didn't know you were on here (but I should have guessed) and I commented in YouTube. Over there I asked if you could possibly give Optimistic to a Fault a shot?? Right. I know. It's missing an ending... Maybe you can give one a shot?? That song would sound fantastic in a femaile voice!!
Thanks again and keep 'em coming no matter what song it is!
thanks again.

Fabulous!
Great job on LO. Your cover of The Truth is absolutely beautiful.
Share more.
Bravo!
I just saw this on YouTube and posted there as well. You did do justice to this song and really showcased the lyrics beautifully...I think David would be proud. Well done!!
Lovely
You did a great job with this, you have a lovely voice. Same goes for your cover of The Truth. I enjoyed listening to both songs.
Nice covers
I like the LO one, but love your The Truth cover.

Sweetie!
It's really fun to hear it in acoustic form. It's also just fun to see you working it out.
* Note, due to a weird oversight (which I know the cool WebNerds will fix soon
) blog posts right now are lacking the author's name and profile link.

wow
your voice is great! really liked your cover.
good job!
for me this song works only acousticly.
the over produced version of david isn't working for me at all.
i wish he would have released it acousticly.

Not to be yourself and faceless / in a song that has no soul ."
Great cover!
Wow, so this was you? I posted a link to your video at the TWoP thread here. I like you voice a lot, you did great! Just a little bit of trouble transitioning to lower register, but I understand that wasn't an easy thing to do. Thanks for sharing!
