You have a great, really strong voice, and you could sing this song in the tour of Mean Girls. You could literally be cast.. If you want this to be an audition tape (which it should be), I'd just stand center stage, with the camera closer up on you (like waist level and up, so we can see your face better) and sing it. A director knows they can give you stage direction and you know how to throw papers around a stage, so they don't need to see that. They need to hear your voice and to me the papers and stuff is distracting and it is distracting you from your acting. You seemed distracted by the business you'd given yourself (and maybe the lyrics?) and it took away from the strength of that song, which is, let's face it, "I'm going to ruin your life." Just stand still and sing that song to the camera like you're singing it to Cady. You could seriously kill this song! I'm going to look you up now and see if you've already been cast in something on Broadway! Keep going you got this!
YOUR VOICE IS SO STUNNING AND POWERFUL! I love how you put your own little twists to the song too! Man, I never knew Tokyo Sunrise could sound so good acoustically....thanks for the cover!
I don't get why everyone is complaining about the pianist, normally this piece has a big background choir which is missing here and the piano is trying to substitute that. Also.... does anybody know the original background track? That has those high, alternating notes too
