Singing is not only in her blood! It's in her soul, in her spirit, in her aura! She's not only one of the best auditionees I've ever heard/watched, she's a performer, an actress! she needs a golden ticket straight to Broadway!!! Also a bit of a musical genius, her arrange was even more heartfelt if that was even possible with that masterpiece of a song! UGH! I'm not going to be able to get over this audition EVER!!!
@@dct90210 I've actually taken a liking to the original in the last couple months. Both are great, together as well. Hard now to pick a favorite honestly. Too much talent
in all honesty, She should have won American Idol. If she went onto the voice, she would have won. I cried at this performance because its definitely better than the original.
That was so golden (I guess platinum for this season) ticket worthy, even though she didnt get one we all know this was one of the single best first auditions in Idol history. So incredible, her control and emotion was just sooooo spot on!
Reminds me of what Adam Lambert and Sia have in their voices amongst a few others.. Absolute truth in telling the story. The angst and pain yet fragility and tenderness of being human and how we live with hope and prayer for strength to health and still carry love as our companion. . Fabulous! I hope she goes through to the end of the show and then forges ahead towards having a creative successful life. 💗
Katy loves these kind of epic "real women singer" songs... this is like a classic song in the world of real singers. and to see Katy literally captivated, hanging on each note... the look in her eyes is priceless... year later and im just like are you kidding me. this and willie spence diamonds are Just on another level
OMG, I don’t know how I missed her that long!!! She is fantastic, what a singer, what a storyteller ❣️👏👏👏🤗🙌❤️❤️❤️ *_Thank you_* Nicolina, *Thank you SO MUCH* for that wonderful gift‼️💓💓💓
This and Adrian’s versions are my absolute favorite. They are the only two that I’ve seen end the second belt in a higher note and it gets me every time. Such raw emotion.
I just lost my best friend yesterday and this was her. She struggled so much with addiction and unfortunately it got her. I want to change that ending so badly. I really wanted to somehow make her see the fire in her eyes again
I started busting out crying watching this and I already knew the song and have heard it multiple times but something just hit me hard here I mean it wasn’t perfect but that’s what I think made me cry Well done
This is such a beautiful song- and you sang it so wonderfully from your heart. Absolutely awsome vocals. No way that you shouldn't have won the year you were on American idol. The top 2 put together didn't sing even close. You are just awsome and have a God given gift. So sing Sister- SING!!!
you know how every high school has that one kid who gets the lead in every musical because they're THAT kid? My school's Nicolina was a guy named Mike. Amazing
