charmed23 Posted December 5, 2023 Posted December 5, 2023 I'm not familiar with the original song at all, and my first impression of this cover is an uninspired delivery with flat melody. Also that recent Unchained Melody Chrismas performance is so one-note, I just can't. Honestly I have always found almost all of her covers either just flat or terribly sung: The Other Woman and Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood remain two of her worst album track, Summertime, Summer Wine, Chelsea Hotel, You Must Love Me, You'll Never Walk Alone, those Christmas songs etc. Especially for those songs that demand really strong vocal, her registers just end up so generic falsetto when reaching. But then she is heaven in Shades of Cool... so I think it's just her own songs/melodies/production work so well with her own vocal, while other people's songs just don't suit her voice. Blue Velvet, Doin' Time, Buddy's Rendezvous, Once Upon a Time in a Dream are the only covers that exudes her unique Lana-ism. Perhaps the production helps?
Living Legend Posted December 5, 2023 Posted December 5, 2023 idk what's going on with her but her vocal delivery has been so one-note lately. Uninspired, bored and almost sounding like a YT cover artist with 200 subs. 1
Taylor fanboy Posted December 5, 2023 Posted December 5, 2023 Idu the negative comments. To each their own. I simply LOVE it and can’t wait for more. 2
Paky McGee Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 I like this cover, not gonna lie. She really has improved her vocal abilities. I'm not ready for her album cover!!!
Taylor fanboy Posted December 6, 2023 Posted December 6, 2023 I can’t stop playing! Get that AOTY! This is currently my Tunnel album closer. What a serve to start with The Grants and end with this gorgeous cover! 1

Do we move? She's the same BBC host Lana spoke to when she dropped The Grants which references John Denver, funnily enough. Edited December 15, 2023 by NOW
stjosephprey4us Posted December 15, 2023 Posted December 15, 2023 I’m so hungry for more Lana I can’t believe she released a new album this year and I still want more
West Coast Posted December 16, 2023 Posted December 16, 2023 Enough of the hillbilly songs we want another A&W/Taco Truck 2
