[@allancederberg1307]

I don't understand why this video has get so many unlikes! Her voice is amazing!!

[@IgnacioParres]

She is constantly out of tune... specially all the end of phrases. The final note is almost a semitone down... it hurts!

[@soccablau9203]

Ignacio Parres maybe u mad because your country is so terrible

[@leticiavalerio8763]

socca blau

[@tedlyngmo9180]

Ignacio Parres Agree ... Ouch ...

[@FreeJujja]

amanda jensesn was the best ever in swedish idol, i love her so much and i remembered wathcing this on tv speechless, i still am

[@hancar]

Detta är en fantastisk uppvisning i musikalitet, jag beklagar alla som inte kan se och höra det! Detta är det bästa uppträdandet i hela Idols historia!

[@CossacksChampion]

this is the best version of this song on youtube. Unbelivable!

[@bicaidjeljana569]

Solldema Baden lol, are you new to the internet?

[@brysonolivarez9178]

I like Hannah Barrett's version personally, but this is just as good if not better; She shows true emotion, beautiful

[@nackalack]

This vid has been in my favorites for years. Love to come back to it every now and then!

[@blancaroca8786]

I’m back

[@SuperVolleyba11]

she sings super soft, but she understands the song you can see it in her eyes and even in her voice

[@tuikku69]

Amanda är en av dom bästa, hennes röst är ju underbar

[@blahobla]

I still don't get how so many people dislike this. OBVIOUSLY this song means something to her, I think she puts alot of emotion in this performance.

[@kristeremtweden1481]

Är i mina ögon och öron fortfarande den största som varit med i Idols historia. Älskar Amanda

[@petermononen6845]

No you´re wrong! This is Superklasse of singing!

[@Car1750]

The best version you will hear😀

[@Pencilwania]

Idol is not only about having the best singingvoice, it's soooo soo much more. it's about to have feeling for PERFORMING and give the audience an EMOTION. i really think Amanda did a great job with that!

[@lullubus]

She is one in a million.. I could recognize her voice in any crowd, she has her own voice, sound, and style,makes her own songs,she has the look of an angel and all the time in the world to make a go for it. She will never become a studio/tecnical product ! Go for it girl !

[@jdlovesmusic32]

this is sooooooo BRUTAL.... I am glad to see that 8,108 people agree.....

[@hancar]

I can spell this performance out in just 8 letters: A-R-T-I-S-T-R-Y! There you have it! Artistry is not about having the most flawless voice or the best scene show, it's about making you feel the commitment, the heart and the feeling of the artist, and that's what Amanda is doing, and if you can't feel it, then I'm sorry for you!

[@ljusta4life]

världsklass!

[@shashanksingh9238]

Every time I listen to this, I get goose bumps.

[@WhoRipz]

i dont know what all the disliker have... it's not the best version .. but it's REALLY REALLY good

[@fridalindstrom9768]

Varför så många dislikes??

[@mnystrom9719]

för att det är dåligt. Hon sjunger så tyst i vissa delar av låten att man knappt kan urskilja orden - vilket resulterar till att det är ett dålig framträdande , att det inte håller... och juryn överdrev så att bena knappt bar dem....

[@LitlaLjufa]

Frida Lindström You’ve got to mean “Why so many likes”?’ She cannot sing! She’s out of pitch, unless they “fix it”, & she has a flat, boring tone with no strength, no resonance & no feeling. She shouldn’t have been picked by the Swedish Idol jury! They should’ve sent her home with the advice to either “try to learn to sing on pitch or choose another career”! I watched the whole season & not one time could she sing on pitch! She was always out of tune. Her audition was okay with That’s alright mama, because you don’t have to be a good singer for such an easy song & she only had to learn those few chords in that song - they’re not many. No thank you to Amanda Jensens so called “singing”! She was given a place & a chance that someone who can sing should’ve had!

[@carrabana]

one of the best version. So amazing.

[@Palefish27]

lik if u cri evrytim

[@Sirre50]

+Jesse Pinkman like* if* you* cry* evrytime* nice try :)

[@antonbjorklund8776]

+Sirre50 Everytime* better luck next time.

[@Sirre50]

Anton Björklund I now that. I just failed

[@Palefish27]

Sirre50 Know* You failed again!

[@TheDeathMetalAtheist]

This was my favourite song as a child. Apart from a few breaks in her voice, she sung it well. I think her voice is amazing, kinda unique. I'd love to sing like her :)

[@Linu595]

Orgasm när hon får höra låten ;) !

[@AnnONymus-zm3iq]

OMG SHE IS WONDERFUL!!!!

[@thefuzzypenguin778]

I enjoyed it very much. Better than the Shrek movie version. BRAVO!!

[@squach6239]

TheFuzzyPenguin Yeah I don't care for Rufus Wainwright!

[@couragescomputer]

@daviddth99 The song is about betrayal, if you understand the lyrics and why Leonard wrote the song, you understand her interpretation...

[@WJKaplan]

Detta var alldeles för överskattat.

[@artisticlifestylee]

why there're so many dislike:( i love her songs

[@juha0]

You can take any X Factor or Idol performance of this song and this one tops them.

[@davidsimmons5685]

Thank thee singing my song

[@MrPhantom95]

It's called feeling, she showed so much emotions just in her eyes.

[@shubreee]

"tack så jätte mycket", you nailed it!

[@Sign3d]

@Zandeeh nu är ju jag ingen idolexpert, inte heller någon aktiv tittare av programmet men jag måste ändå peka ut ett annat framträdande som var helt fantastiskt i mina ögon; nämligen Amanda Fondells framträdande av Nause's 'made of', en väldigt annorlunda genre men fortfarande helt otroligt personligt och hyllningsvärt, minst lika, om inte mer, som detta.

[@lullubus]

eget sound, egen röst, egna låtar, vacker som en ängel... hur många sådana artister finns det? ge ut Heartace med enbart Amanda och gitarrkomp och det blir en världshitt av sällan skådat slag... I.m waiting...

[@maggiestasko4733]

she has an amazing voice and a lot of potential

[@MartyMartin87]

WOOOWWW !!! Sweet voice with power, like it

[@dieter2807]

Sehr schön

[@Wonderfulllifex33]

the best voice of all

[@Sunvalley92]

Varför är det en del som ogillar den här versionen, Amanda du rockar!

[@christianhelenius748]

the best song forever

[@couragescomputer]

@judyhollett Are you an immigrant? Do you not understand the lyrics? The song is not an epic song it´s a painful blues and her interpretation is true and awesome.

[@couragescomputer]

When you don´t understand English, you can´t understand the lyrics and I guess you don´t even know who Leonard Cohen is or why he wrote this song. Amanda is one of a few that relly can feel what Leonard wanted to say...

[@mrkingrichard]

Her hair is sooo beautiful

[@mdaissi]

she's amazing!

[@1975Milla]

Så galet vackert Amanda!!

[@mralbundy52]

@epigoeshard Her voice is extraterrestrial, it must be the voice of an angel.

[@grkprince42]

this is a different..... version........ I guess this cover doesn't have the 2nd 4th or 5th verse........ or was it just cut short?

[@couragescomputer]

@nataliaruss OK, Miss Professional singer, where can I buy all your CD´s ?? As a professional singer you must know why Leonard wrote this song ??

[@couragescomputer]

This is the way it was meant to be performed. Leonard must have thought of a not jet born Swedish talented girl when he wrote this song. This is what he felt when he struggled with his religious faith... Some of the dislikers don`t understand the english lyrics, some don`t know anything about music, some don`t know why Leonard wrote the song, some are choked because she performed better than their favorite, some are just haters, some ....

[@mralbundy52]

@lindaforssen kasta inte sten i glashus... lite avundsjuk?

[@STARRANISE-yb4nb]

vein, vein, vein, vein, vein, ALL IN VEIN.. as far as her voice, no comment!

[@Orangesoda319]

this is really good :)

[@FaustinaFalcon8]

4:38 lol "amandas mommma och pappa" hahah love it

[@laggar28]

Go right to 2:18 to listen to the song

[@MrLinush]

The one and only

[@woahasdf]

This is good...there is soo much soul in her voice! Its good...doubt many of you could do better

[@lullubus]

tommyjun02 har du lyssnat på Amandas version av Heartace.. det är så j..vla bra att man bara vill gråta. Det är bara hon och en raspig gitarr. Jag hoppas hon ger ut den på skiva

[@lewi5676]

i cant believ i cried before the girl did >.

[@bugade]

the music begins at 2:20.. thumps up

[@ctragardh]

hon är ju sååååå cool.. shit asså! älskar denna versionen

[@DuneDee]

She's Swedish. How can you not tell? Euro + blonde almost automatically = Swedish

[@mjinmyheartforever6061]

RIP Amanda!

[@Jo_Lubi]

???

[@Regina0020]

a wgl to gdzie tu jest melodia?

[@snorungen00]

love it:)

[@94dhk]

@alanbarrHR how can you say that? what makes music wrong? different people perform songs differently.

[@mnystrom9719]

Hörde knappt vad hon sjöng i verserna.Och hon var långt ifrån den nivån att juryn behövde ställa sig upp. förstår inte riktigt hur detta klipp kan ha över tio miljoner visningar. Men rösten var för övrigt bra.

[@snorungen00]

I love u when u sing this sooong

[@HiderFire82]

that was weird but i still love her

[@jaimealbitez9482]

una cancion muy bella

[@Karinlovessweden]

I just love it :) is so amazing

[@star123753]

@ClownFreak95 I know i understand this but she was singing some parts in really weird way

[@GuitaristforGod23]

@MultiArchie777 There's none greater than Him. God Bless you as well

[@stayjit1]

Not a bad try, I'd like to hear her sing a longer version. Ive heard many versions and in my always humble opinion I'll always say that the singer that nailed it to the floor is kd lang. Somewhat surprisingly Jon Bon Jovi did a VERY nice interpretation but the &^%$ Powers That Be have taken it down from KZbin. Our loss and his too.

[@Holmer87]

Vem är Lennard Cåren? Å de satt å klagade på dåligt uttal?

[@jdlovesmusic32]

:) just remember you never need to apologize for your opinion

[@apawli1224]

Funny all ya'll people complain but not one of you are blowing it up on stage... lol

[@Thisiscarleywebb]

i love how they all clap at the same pace:p

[@AnnONymus-zm3iq]

If you compare that to 9261421 viewers it is nothing, not many artist in Sweden/Norway have that kind of rate. It is less then 0.8 per 1000 viewers, no reason for her to worry about it.

[@AnnONymus-zm3iq]

what is 8116 dislikes in comparison with 9075804 viewers, it is less then 1 per thousand, it is nothing...

[@motihd]

@marrietjee I completely agree

[@TangensSinusCosinus]

I just thumped up for her looking.

[@AikoAyameAzami]

sounds like katy perry, and her American accent is exquisite!

[@Graome]

Hur fan kan folk tycka att detta låter bra??

[@FreddieMercury000RIP]

Mein Hochzeits-Song ,,, ich liebe ihn .... allerdings von Espen Lind und seinen Kollegen

[@Living0nce7]

Are really going to sit here and comment on this video saying that she isn't in tune? My god what is this world coming to... Coming from a musician with two albums completed I'm telling you right now that she was in tune 98 % of the time you tone deff ignorant human.. And by the way she has style and originality.. This girl puts brittany spears to shame and ill say that with passion.

[@muhald715]

@MeckarEnZuttla no idea...

[@megara13hkl]

wow

[@PickNicky]

@bonhiitha thanks -D

[@Felix-ek7tm]

She went to my school :D

[@marsupilamiftw]

@LoveBasketTom cause when you have heard leonard cohen and jeff buckley sing that song you simply cant like that version

[@Demi1Sell]

Boże ta kobiet nie ma za grosz talentu !

[@xlerosx]

This song is NOT a song that needs the drama that she is trying to pull off with her body movements. She has been watching too much Beyonce. This song Should carry itself.

[@jamtnas]

I am not familiar with the "lame reality" concept. Is that something you use in your country? Anyway, my top number one first priority is to promote John Bon Johnny's version of song which happen to be superior to all other versions. Norwayan barbershop version is second best, because it is in perfect tune, but unfortunately lack some sexy factor. Maybe a viola playing chick could have solved that problem.

[@truttox]

i think she's really pretty and sings really good! stop being so fucking negative.

[@Archtila]

@apelsineen överlägset bäst, och kanske blivit populärt utanför sverige? + äldre klipp än de nyare idolklippen.

[@terrencetjj69]

fucking great job amanda ,like it very much :)

[@IPZEEN]

7451 people are danish.

[@Living0nce7]

Look at how many "thumbs up" my comments get. Good, now look at how many yours get. Exactly you lost this discussion.

[@AnnONymus-zm3iq]

Nej allt handlar om olika musiksmak, som Eric Saade sa när han hade vunnit Melodifestivalen. Vad är 8246 jämfört 9339623 tittare, bara ca 0,7 promille. Inte många artister i Sverige har sådana siffror.

[@CharlieTheSalty]

@likenwhatic Might be cuz of all the swedish in the first half of the vid.
