NO autotune here. I'm a music producer and a singer/songwriter so i would know. She uses effects to make it sound clearer (compressors eq's etc) anyone who records a song and wants it to sound good, uses those. I honestly think you are one of the best female vocals I have ever heard, you have your own style of singing, which is rare, especially on youtube where everyone sings the same - correct and boring most of the time. Not to mention how much autotune some people use and viewers don't seem to mind. Your covers sound very professional. Keep it up and I'll be enjoying listening to you :)
My lover's got humor She's the giggle at a funeral Knows everybody's disapproval I should've worshiped her sooner If the Heavens ever did speak She's the last true mouthpiece Every Sunday's getting more bleak A fresh poison each week "We were born sick", you heard them say it My church offers no absolutes She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom" The only Heaven I'll be sent to Is when I'm alone with you I was born sick, but I love it Command me to be well A-, Amen, Amen, Amen Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life If I'm a pagan of the good times My lover's the sunlight To keep the Goddess on my side She demands a sacrifice Drain the whole sea Get something shiny Something meaty for the main course That's a fine looking high horse What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful That looks tasty That looks plenty This is hungry work Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Offer me my deathless death Good God, let me give you my life Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins so you can sharpen your knife Offer me my deathless death Good God, let me give you my life No masters or kings when the ritual begins There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin In the madness and soil of that sad earthly scene Only then I am human Only then I am clean Oh, oh, Amen, Amen, Amen Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life Take me to church I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife Offer me that deathless death Good God, let me give you my life Source: LyricFind
A lot of people are pressed that she changed the lyrics but the original person who sings this is a male and says she referring to the church and the goddess (still about a gay couple) and so if she (a female) sings this it makes sense to say he cause she’s singing about a church and a god (he) who doesn’t accept them (a relationship with two girls) and is singing out because it’s a gentle sin and doesn’t understand why they don’t accept it. So chill it makes total sense for her to sing it like this and that’s how I sing it (I’m a lesbian) and I feel it more and I cry when I do sing it all out chill out.
@@wonderlust358 Bro I made this comment 5 months ago why do you feel the need to comment on something when there was a lot of comments that were mad at her for changing the words and I mean 92 people agree with me and btw I’m not mad I’m just saying it’s weird but go off
Yeah I love that it’s accidentally homosexual lol. Just the thing is “She” is referring to the church....... there is no point in changing that pronouns, the song is gay no matter what pronouns you use for that bit-
"(I’m a lesbian") Yes, still, nobody cares, you fucking child. Stop using your sexuality as a means to voice your opinion about everything. Fucking hell, develop a spine. Stop trying to gain acceptance for shit you have, nor will ever , experience.
"She changed the pronouns!! That must mean she's homophobic!!!" Lmaoo y'all it's really not that deep. Tons of people change the pronouns in songs so THEY can relate to the song. It's not homophobic at all you're just sensitive. I'm apart of the lgbtq+ community and even I know this isn't homophobic. Stop thinking everything is an attack and grow tf up you're not 5. If she wants to change the pronouns she can change them. And if you don't like that than you can sing the damn song yourself
cheek clapper It is ironic, however, to cover a song about homophobia but try so hard to distance yourself from even the implication of being gay, and, frankly, it’s a bit distracting. Besides, it’s theorized that “she” refers to the church, and “he” doesn’t carry the same weight in that case. You shouldn’t have to change a song to relate to it. If everyone altered every portion of a song to better fit their own life, they’re better off writing their own. It’s not homophobic, and it’s not a huge deal either, but it is in poor taste, and it slightly undermines the cover’s integrity. Though she has a beautiful voice, maybe the emotion isn’t as poignant as the original because she simply jumped on a bandwagon and didn’t truly invest in it beforehand.
I also think that it fits for this song depending on your interpretation. A common interpretation is that the singer is explaining their situation to an outsider and switched the pronouns to hide their relationship so they wouldn't be judged
Also, I notice most people who covered the song DIDN'T change the pronouns and I actually appreciate the fact that she DID because I found it more relatable to myself. This has nothing to do with my love for the LGBTQA+ community and everything to do with my own romance woes lol
@@SaraiMay this song is about a gay man hiding the fact he gay by using female pronouns when talking about his male lover to the people in his church (It was shown in the music video). By changing the pronouns Sofia is maintaining the story the songwriter created.

The worst kind of pain? When your smiling Just to stop the tears from falling.. "So, where are these cuts from?" She asks. "They're battle scars," I reply. "Who are you battling?" "Myself."

@@danielecerino9123 There is one thing you can depend on, things will change. Nothing stays the same. The important thing is to take it and learn from it. Learn lessons that you don't repeat. Nice to meet you too Daniel.
I'm sick of all these people on RU-vid who call themselves musicians but the only thing they do is use a lot of autotune. You can't even hear her real voice, it's over edited. And don't tell me it isn't true, because you can HEAR the autotune. RU-vid needs real musicians who are real.
I just wanna say to all yall. She is not using auto tune. It's called Raido edit. Auto tune is something totally different. I do have to say that she did use it a little to much for this song but every popular artist uses radio edit. No one is perfect so don't expect perfect to exist.... 😉
so proud of you sofia, you just getting better and better in time. so in love with your voice and beauty :) cheer up btw just wanna let you know i was your subbie since you only got like 1k now look back at your channel you getting more big and famous now so happy for you :) BIG FAN FROM THAILAND but now living in USA

Reading the comments it's amazing how many people don't realise this is NOT a christian song, it's an anti-religion song. It illustrates how disgusting the whole concept of "god/worship/religion" is.
Seeker22000 lol I know right, I'm a christian and my friends at church were saying how beautiful the song is and how it shows the lord's love. I couldn't stop laughing at them it was so funny. 😂😂😂
Angelic Assassin Well I hope you attempted to set the straight a little, lol. It's like the Leonard Cohen song "Hallelujah", even Leonard Cohen said in an interview the song is about lost love, but again the religious take it as a worship song. Enjoy the song for what it is instead of trying to make it what you want it to be. By the way, how'd you get the smileys on there? I see people using bold font and italics in their comments too but I admit I'm clueless how it's done.
Angelic Assassin Your last reply was flagged as "inappropriate" for some reason and it won't let me restore it. So I copied it and putting it here for you. I don't believe in comments being censored. Angelic Assassin Yesterday 11:55 PM Seeker22000 Yeah I tried to explain it to them but they accused me of turning my back on God (I don't go there anymore). And I have an emoji keyboard on my tablet. Wow they were a little harsh on you just for pointing out a fact they didn't like, ouch.
***** the bible goes a bit farther than simply saying that same sex relationships aren't "correct", it says anyone who is gay should be put to death. Unruly children should be put to death, adulterers should be put to death, he ordered whole communities to be put to death, he wiped out the whole planet, including plants and animals (what the heck could a 2 month old kitten ever do to tick him off?) , if you don't conform you're threatened with burning in hell in a lake of fire for eternity. And eternity is a very long time! And yet he does all that because he loves us. Uhmmm, I hope you don't mind my saying that, under the circumstances, I've had just about as much "love" as I can take. So yeah, I do see a problem with believing and religion.
Seeker22000 What part of the bible did you read this from? And what faith is it following? Because I've never read this in the bible or heard any other Christians say this before and I've been christian my entire life. 😃 (no hate just asking)
How fucking dare you say something like that? Not everyone is sensitive to start arguing over little shit like that. You're un-fucking-believable. I kid.
このカバーは見事です 原曲に新たな光を差し込んでいる 曲に新たな可能性を指し示すことがカバーの1つの役割です This cover is brilliant. It sheds new light on the original song. One of the roles of a cover is to point out new possibilities for the song.
You have the incredible talent to extract the pure essence from existing songs and to reproduce them in an exceptionally precise and beautiful way with your wonderful voice!

+Alicia Barrera I can guarantee you that there was autotune used in at least some parts of the vocals. You can hear it very clearly in some parts; it gives that trademark robot-like sound. I am not taking away from her performance or ability, she is obviously very talented, but in this instance she has used autotune.
+ena Hahaha pull the other one, it's got bells on it. I know the difference between yodelling and autotune. Autotune is almost an industry standard at this point.
I'm impressed!! I've listened to this cover several times and I will listen more!! Sooo beautiful voice , so emotional interpretation!! Sofia, where are you?
Please don't mention the fandom in videos that are not related. I'm an army to but it makes people think that army is annoying. Army gets a lot of hate for these types of comments. I hope you understand
Don't get me wrong, but didnt he/she make a general statment? I mean, if he/she would like to state her/his opnion, shouldn't it start with "in my opnion" or something like that?
She's amazing. Camera person...not so much. Are we watching her perform or are we playing peek-a-boo? Not trying to be mean, just suggesting they check out some tutorials. Everyone starts somewhere!
