    Tori does justice to just about every cover version she does.She infuses them with Toriness.

    Ah yes...Tori the cover queen! Close your eyes, open your mind and go far far away to a wonderful place where you could never drive or fly. However, Tori will lift you up and take you there. ...much deeper than you can dive and higher than any sky.

    There are certain artists and songs that listeners connect with and should not be covered by others. Most of Roberta Flack's catalogue would fall into this group as she is amazing in her interpretations of songs and a great writer and arranger in her own right. On the other hand, there are artists who have that special extra gift. Tori is one of the very few. She can cover songs yet keep the integrity of the original but make it different and all her own at the same time. She is a humanitarian and pure genius at expressing thoughts and through words and melodies. This is a spell binding cover.

    I've had that exact thing happen to me. Once, while listening to her version of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow", I felt like I was literally flying up, up, up, beyond this dimension, while her voice was reverberating from every pore in existence. It felt truly angelic.

    The joy of live recording. And it's beautiful!! Listen to the hall reverb and how it compliments her voice.

    On a record perhaps, the hiphopped version that the Fugees had. But this is quite a bit more true to the original.

    The most over rated peformer ever Covering this song highlights just how piss weak her voice is just like her Joe Jackson Real Men cover But I'm sure I have upset the people who only look at her beauty and mistake it for talent judging by the comments
