Dilana gives me chills. Channelling Janis Joplin - but in her own voice. What a huge incredible talent, and from such a petite person! Wish I could see Dilana live!
@sheyajabouinandover How awesome! She really left an impression on me on that show...I'd love to just hang out with her and listen to her sing for hours!
I never really cared for Cyndi Lauper all that much but when I heared this version of the song as done by Dilana, I was in tears. She was so moving with that song.
Another observation, and I have heard this in other revenues as well. Supernova has some talent there - no doubt about it. But you couldn't help but be impressed by the house band in this series. At times, I believe they outdid SN itself. This acoustic work by Jimmy is a classic example.
In my opinion the reason why they didn't choose Dilana was because of her song writing. She was the best performer by far, but when they wrote their own songs, her lyrics were corny. Even Supersoul's lyrcis were corny as hell. They need someone to write lyrics to the songs already written, and she wasn't the one.
For your information, there are plenty of people using the internet whose native language isn't English. Complaining about grammar and spelling is a very low way of trying to make yourself look good. And if we're going to complain about grammar, where did you learn to put a capital letter after a comma? Also, don't use a capital letter to begin a noun in the middle of a sentence ("Idiot"). If you're going to complain about grammar, at least learn it yourself. Finally, music is subjective.
I heard that Supernova didnt pick her cuz she stood out a lot. They said that if they picked Dilana, it would've been like Dilana and Supernova. Its a total compliment to her talent. Yeah her song writing sucked somewhat but you can always hire songwriters. Lukas Rossi just fit in better as a band.
Isnt this basically the same thing though only with people being 'rockers' or whatever? Everyone would try to be better than D or Lukas....one being impossible and the other extremely easy but irritating....
I remember when this aired! She blew me away, especially that high bit near the end. What a talent!
01:45 "i will be waiting" - my heart skipped a beat! awesome!
Dilana is a passionate, powerful artist who commands the stage every time she steps out there!! She is the best of the best!!! xox
Dilana is amazing and beautiful. She's unique beyond anybody.
I get chills every time I hear her sing. So much passion for the music.
i still get shivers when i listen to her !! she picks me up and carry's me to another place!!
"I WILL BE WAITING" sends chills down my spine....what a voice!!!
She rocked even this song.
I didn't miss one second of the show when it was on. I wish there were more shows like this. I get too bored by Idol to sit still and watch it.

Man I nevr thougbt she would sound dat good! She was awesome!! Oh and Jimmy is reli awesome too.

She should have won. She should have done great things. Why is this woman not famous?
this is the only song i wasnt so sure i liked and it still could sell a million copies Dilana is wonderful i wish her web site was better
Shw was my fav of both seasons. I wish they wouldv'e continued the Rckstars Series
I love how Magni and Storm always cheered her on.
Dilana can do more than she shows !! The song about Africa is just GREAT, she made it with the band she was than, Caz! if i remember.
this is brilliant - would love to hear a studio version
I remember this, loved it!
she really was amazing id wish she would have gone on idol so she would be somewhere!
I've been saying the same thing! I love all the arrangements they did on all the originals. See Fire done with Magni.
Dilana can sing Happy Birthday and still her force would nail them to the wall.
She is Like Brody Dalle! Wow, Dilana is Amazing!
I miss Rockstar...most of all I miss Dilana....:(
Dilana,Magni,Storm

Lucas Rossi sucs... Go Dilana, you are the BEST!! I hope one day we can C U down here in New Zealand!
Dilana tore that tune up! Wonder what's up with her. She was awesome!
where is she now damn miss her and that wicked voice of her's?
she must have overdosed
Remember when Clarke said he didn't like the arrangement Toby did with "Layla?" I thought he was crazy. That one was great, too.
SO TRUE!!!!!!!
BAD ASS!
class
Best version of this song by far. She was robbed.
She friggin' rules, I don't care what y'all haters say, she should have won
Dilana will be the new LA Guns singer. Matter of days. She passes audition for the job thursday.
MOVE OVER, CYNDI LAUPER!
Tommy Lee admitted that with Dilana out front they felt like a backup band.
Supernova doesn't deserve Dilana.
I love this version from Dilana. I think it's even better than the original from Cindy Lauper.
Jesus...This is better than the original......
Typical DILANA cover...incredible ***
IS JASON NEWSTEAD IN THE VIDEO
yeah and some people would argue lucas is phony of magni or Toby and if you don't like her why are you watching this video?
Fresh off her 2nd Tour for the Troops,
DILANA is gonna be entertaining stateside @ 2010 ***
check out her website: dilanarocks
@donrupes amen to that!!!
Dilana has more talent in one of her bracelets than all of Supernova put together.. They did her a favor not picking her.
its no cyndi lauper but who else is like cyndi lol i loved it though it was awesome
They need to bring this show back. Idol is a joke by comparison.
still think that she has a beautiful voice... i will set her right up there with Stevie Nix...beautiful ladies with beautiful voices
What an AMAZING song! Dilana rox!!! Check her out in Canada in (1) week! October 15th in Barrie, Ontario!!!:)

she sounds like alejandra guzman
: D
I remember Dilana running nude by the pool !
Isnt this basically the same thing though only with people being 'rockers' or whatever? Everyone would try to be better than D or Lukas....one being impossible and the other extremely easy but irritating....
Demasiado Wannabe!
Her vocal range is unbelievably ridiculous, lol.
I agree with Dilana: this was her worst performance. I'm definitely a fan but this, unfortunately, showed her lack of range.
Yeah her song writing sucked. Rossi had a much better original song. But Dilana has bigger balls than Rossi does. And I like Rossi.
she sounds like she smoked to much, still not bad
HA! whatever
Not even close. I didn't like that. I prefer originals.
