    The original sounds like someone who is singing about happiness in their life in general but this version sounds like someone who is slowly learning to be happy, perhaps coming out of a depression or something.

    I'm baffled as to why anyone's complaining about this rendition being depressing. It's called art. She's taking a popular song, and pouring emotion into it for her own spin on things. The Pharell version still exists, y'know?

    Great version of the song, got a little London Grammar vibe, which is nice!

    After 27 years of abusing music this is the most beautiful song I've ever come across. Goose bumps every time incredible.

  • @CASSIOPEIAMASHUPS
    @CASSIOPEIAMASHUPS 10 років тому +36

    The point IS that it sounds sad and depressing. The added voice over and overall sound are meant to change the meaning of the song. Her version is about a person or couple that seems happy but are really just putting on a facade. The Happy lyrics represent how they say they feel while the background music is their inner feelings. The Teardrop lyrics at the end represents them dropping the facade.

    People who are hating shut up this cover is unique and completely different to the orginal, so even if you think it doesn't work you have to applaud her for putting her own style on this song . I loved it.

    I really don't have the right words to express how deeply I feel about this song. She has an Amazing Voice beyond her years. And I feel almost a sense of Vu' watching this young girl and hearing her Impeccable Voice. She reminds me so much of Amy Winehouse, and I say that with utmost Love and Respect for the both of these Women as Artists. Thank You. Xo's
