Davina Michelle - 'What About Us' l | Liefde voor Muziek | Seizoen 8 | VTM 

Not many can cover a song better than the original , but this is one of them , and Pink agrees .

Even P!NK herself watched Davina sing it in a cover and said she sang it better then she did. And P!NK did it pretty damn good. So that's saying something. Especially when you get to sing at her Beautifull Trauma Tour. The range she has is exceptional and powerfull.

Shout out to that backing vocalist absolutely slaying those harmonies at the end 👏🏼👏🏼

The back vocal nailing this with her. Wow. This is one amazing performance.

Everyone is talking about Davina Michelle, but we are forgetting the backing vocalist. In the last part of this video she is rocking it with the harmony in the chorus! AMAZING!

i got goose bumps just listening to this version with the orchestration to back her up. love it!

A rare, very rare, talent. Just special listening to her. How do you react when you hear something so special -- tears come to my eyes, and chills all over. Just everything about this performance is so perfect, her beauty, her presence, makeup, jewelry, hair, outfit, shoes, the lighting, the camera work, the editing, musicians, the reaction shots, her dynamics, and her movement -- such a natural performer, so much ease, yet so much emotion. Just amazing.

Incredible! She's no longer singing a cover, she finally made this her song. She reinvented this song with her essence! Love it! Phenomenal!

Als wij ooit het songfestival nog willen winnen, dan moeten wij deze Angel sturen.👍

Reliving this song that made Davina explode... getting better and better, she is unbelievable and deserves the world ⭐

Gosh I wanna cry now. This girl's talent and voice are out of this world. I so much love the raspiness in her voice and the fact she sang live and in a rather laid-back way makes me admire her even more. Amazing!

I can't imagine any one not choking up the first time they hear Davina sing this cover of P!nk's What about us. I've seen it five times and I still have a lump in my throat.

Davina Davina … een Engel geboren om ons allemaal te ontroeren en gelukkig te maken met een klok van een stem. Dankuwel 🙏🏻

Whoever engineered this arrangement is a rockstar. Her voice on its own is amazing and bringing in only one other harmony at the end could only work if the solo backup artist is also an amazing singer. Powerful and stuck on the brain.

When the original artist hears their song sung and they get goosebumps. That is all the confirmation you need. Pink is an outstanding artist and performer and she knew it when she heard this woman's voice. She is awesome!

I’ve never heard anyone do a song better than the original yet sound like the original voice and sound so effortless. Her voice is so powerful and so effortlessly done in this song. Each word is so eloquently pronounced and cleanly pronounced too. The original isn’t the same, it seems like the artist has to put her all in to get it out and this artist doesn’t have the problem: I’ve never seen someone do this with a song

Zoals het Nieuwsblad het schreef de Nederlandse nachtegaal prachtig dit is er boenk op zeggen ze in Vlaanderen. Een ontzettend mooie uitvoering van dit fantastische nummer.

Davina should be famous worldwide. Best singer!

Can we take a moment and appreciate the perfect back vocals done by that girl in the background. Amazing performance by both.

This is the best version I've ever heard of this song... that voice is just flawless.

Hoe vaker ik deze versie hoor, hoe meer ik me afvraag of het ooit nog beter is vertolkt.... Ik denk van niet eigenlijk. OMG wat een uitvoering is dit!!!

She gave me earthquake for goosebumps, and the voice. I do love the song but she didn't disappoint anyone, that performance was TOP ✓

Holy Cannolis! This is exactly why I dont compare talent anymore bc every time I think I've heard the most amazing voice, I hear another. Davina is truly gifted. Can't wait to hear more (:

HOLY! You got me an earthquake of emotions. First time ever I‘ve heard your voice and you MADE MY DAY. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Just absolutely wow. When someone sings and your entire body responds to the journey. Mesmerising. Left me wanting more

In tears….this girl is a gem….the vocals carry feelings….I’m obsessed

Not many people give me the chills, she does that as the song builds. Where the heck has this girl been hiding.

I am absolutely blown away. This version ligit had my eyes watering. Her voice is incredible. I've never felt a song so deeply. Just wow! I can't wait to see what's next!

First, Davina absolutely crushes this song. Pink said "that's better than I will ever sound" while listening to Davina's cover. Second, the look of absolute joy on the faces of virtually everyone in the video was so awesome to see. ❤

Wauw......dit is toch fantastisch......Davina in topvorm 🤩 !!! Davina's krachtige stemtonen worden hier perfect ingezet en maakt dit betekenisvolle 'What About Us' zéér indrukwekkend 😍 !!!

Davina, you're a force, love. You sing from your soul, and it gives me goosebumps every time I hear you sing. Keep singing love. The world needs your voice.

This is the best version of this song I've ever heard

God I just love her voice ❤ 😍. Amazing 👏

This was the first song that I saw Davina sing six years ago, I became and instant fan... the quality, passion and control she sang with was so special, I was awe struck... what a voice, what a beauty, what a star... she never ceases to amaze... she has a brilliant future ahead of her... so fun to watch...

I am literally crying. This was/is such a beautiful rendition.

Great voice. Shout out to the backing vocals too!

I wish Pink could see this particular performance. Davina really has made the song her own, and I think Pink would love it even more than the performance she saw before. Had I written this song, I would be in tears of awe and joy. Actually, I am anyway. As Pink once said: "Now I know how this song is supposed to sound!" (And that is absolutely nothing against Pink, because she's amazing, too.)

Ik kan geen genoegen krijgen van haar... Top Davina 🥰🥰🥰

I hope that backup singer gets literally everything she ever wants 😊

Goosebumps, the voice is literally “powerful”!❤

Sublime ! La voix, la présence, la puissance, le contrôle. Juste magnifique...

My favorite song she ever sung! She sang it even better than the first time. Amazing. She is the total package!!! ❤

Davina sang her heart out in this song. Bravo Bravo....thank you.

The pain in her voice was so real. Pink’s original brought me to tears. Davina’s cover had me sobbing. Thank you Davina.

Davina, ik luister alles van je. Werelds. Gewoon beter dan iedereen in de hele wereld, geen grap. Geweldige stem

Lyrics We are searchlights, we can see in the dark We are rockets, pointed up at the stars We are billions of beautiful hearts And you sold us down the river too far What about us? What about all the times you said you had the answers? What about us? What about all the broken happy ever afters? What about us? What about all the plans that ended in disaster? What about love? What about trust? What about us? We are problems that want to be solved We are children that need to be loved We were willin', we came when you called But man, you fooled us, enough is enough, oh What about us? What about all the times you said you had the answers? What about us? What about all the broken happy ever afters? Oh, what about us? What about all the plans that ended in disaster? Oh, what about love? What about trust? What about us? Oh, what about us? What about all the plans that ended in disaster? What about love? What about trust? What about us? Sticks and stones, they may break these bones But then I'll be ready, are you ready? It's the start of us, waking up, come on Are you ready? I'll be ready I don't want control, I want to let go Are you ready? I'll be ready 'Cause now it's time to let them know We are ready, what about us? What about us? What about all the times you said you had the answers? So what about us? What about all the broken happy ever afters? Oh, what about us? What about all the plans that ended in disaster? Oh, what about love? What about trust? What about us?

I love how proud and happy for her the others are! Nice to see such support for each other!

I just watched the first version that Pink watched and it was good really really good and emotional. This is one is another lever, very beautiful and deep. I believe there is 5 years of difference between them and you can hear the hard work of the singer, her voice sounds different, more mature and professional. I loved it.

Amazing! Wonderful! Best performance!🔥🔥🔥

Wauw wat een kanjer, mooie stem, goede performance, ze zit er altijd helemaal in, en kijkt iedereen zo aan, ze komt direct in je hart ❤️

Omg…😍 I’m in absolute awe of how perfect this cover is. Simply beautiful; what an amazing story teller 🤍 you’ve gained a new fan ☺️

Absolutely Amazing!!! I don’t know how many times I have listened to this one, but quite a few!!! Just love the way you sing it!!

incredibleeeeeeeeeeeeeee ! you are so goooood ! what a voice, what a interpretation ! congrats for your hard work !!!

Tides and tides of chills! I don't know what it was, but this was the time she sang this that made me tear up. Her voice really makes me believe the lyrics♡

My god. This is exactly why music means so much to me. That I can sit here listening to a someone sing a song I never particularly cared about and get 4 solid minutes of goosebumps and emotion. Holeee smokes.

How can this song not make you feel good. What a great voice ,thanks Davina !

Loving her voice 🙌🏽

Wow! Incredible! Never thought I'd hear anyone sing this song as well as Pink.

Incredible. I felt like I was there bouncing up and down on the couch. Then, I would have gotten up and bounced around the studio had I been there. Superb performance.

EVERY 👏🏼 SINGLE 👏🏼 TIME 👏🏼 I hear her sing this song, I get full body goosebumps.

I am a huge PINK fan!! I saw a You tube short yesterday with PINK hearing you sing this. I then had to hear the full version of you singing this. You are beyond incredible!! PINK is right you sing this better than she does. Not an easy thing to do and you look like you do it so effortlessly. Congratulations!!!

She's absolutely incredible!

This girl is incredible. A superstar no doubt,and I'm sure she will be acknowledged as one of the best female vocalists out there.

Vanaf het begin. Mooier dan een nachtegaal. Supermooi, fris, prachtig, steengoed. Powerfull just like always.😘

I’ve been emotionally numb for almost a year, due to a lot of loss and trauma. I’m sobbing now. Davina’s voice is second to none and we are blessed to be able experience this talent ❤️❤️❤️

I think she has my favorite voice I have ever heard!

I have never seen so much love, pride and support in one video. I just can’t stop watching ❤️❤️

great vocals. The passion is what got me. She meant every word.

Mannnn I’ve been watching this girl since the first time she covered this song. But when pink herself says nothing but praise when you cover her song. You know you got it

She is so amazing. gorgeous perfomance

Qué maravilla. La escucharía en bucle toda mi vida.

You shed light on my life. my son died last year, this song was both my curse and my utopia, my hope. Your performance, my dearest child, shed light on my earthly life as well as on the tragedy that touched me. thank you Davina you have a beautiful voice and heart thank you

Her timing, vocalise and feel at 1:42 is just world class... what a lady...
