No emotion was my first thought. not really impressed with the singer at all.

[@MirorR3fl3ction]

Ya she has a great voice and is super talented, she just isnt a distortion vocalist, and this song just isnt the same without distorted vocals

[@NeverlandSystemPixie]

She's good, but she lacks the grit, anguish, and pain of the original. It's a great cover, but it's just too... "soft".

[@TippyTipz]

I personally think that covers are meant for bands to really express themselves and change up certain aspects of the Original song and add their own flavor to them. I think First to Eleven did an amazing job with the cover! Yes, the vocals sound a lot more poppy, but that's just their unique version to it. I saw the Red jumpsuit cover and now this one...tbh it's pretty hard to compete with those classics and MCR was an emo band on its upbringing. Helena and Face Down were released during that phase in time, hella emotions and so much meaning in the lyrics. Maybe FtE's cover is supposed to highlight those awesome instrumentals, but instead trying add a poppier sound - which is where I see a lot of newer music going. As much as I grew up listening to MCR, RJA, etc, I won't downplay this version just cuz it's different. Huge respect!

[@xshadowscreamx]

If you strip out the sadness and anger of these songs than It becomes plastic and disposable. I want to see this band get crazy, show feeling.

Good voice, good instrumentals. What needs work is the intent. It kinda feels like these performers don’t quite grasp the meaning of the song which is super important. This isn’t a song where you want to be smiling for the camera or looking cute in. Tell us a story. Show us heartbreak or high stakes! Don’t be afraid of the uncomfortable. Keep up the good work and continue to evolve!

...it's pretty. i didn't like it great singing, great playing, but this song needs a bit more ugliness in it. And i feel like they could do this song justice, but they're (for the lack of a better word) to shy to let the listener feel their emotions? it's a performance, sure. but it shouldn't be that performative. i'm actually pretty sure the lead singer could do it, (the bridge had some depth) )but she restrains herself. i just feel like this isn't really her voice, just a voice she can sing in and was deemed most pleasing. shhow emotions, guys. you're above mediocre mainstream. hopefully.

[@emilie11291]

I know the comments may seem a lil harsh, but here's my humble opinion: You got everything to make a GREAT Helena cover. Really! As a matter of fact this is not even bad. But if you're truly up to making a GREAT Helena cover I would rec doing a much more raw version of this very same thing. Cause the instrumentation is great. Your voice is amazing. EVERYTHING is great and ready to go. But you need to understand that at the core of this song there is intense heartbreak and grief. It's almost like the song goes through the 5 stages of grief all in 4 minutes. Really focus on the meaning of the song and the meaning behind the words being sung. Try to get behind that heartbroken anger that rides through the entire song. Don't be afraid of it being messy, because that's the point. Grief IS messy, and if you're too worried about making it sound "pretty", then you are sacrificing the very soul of this song, and no matter how perfect you may play it, people are gonna notice. I hope you take this to heart and that it doesn't offend you. You are doing great. you all have an awesome sound.
