Linda Eder - " She Used To Be Mine" by Sara Bareilles

This has been one of my most requested songs to sing since this show came out. I finally decided to give it a go. Hope you like it. Put your headphones on for the best sound quality. The song starts at 3:42 if you are impatient.... :). Thank you, Sara, for your incredible all around talent! Keep em coming.

[@lindaederofficialyoutube]

I'm so happy that you all like the recording! Thank you!

[@michellekrzanich6974]

Thank you! I feel this!

[@mburns75]

It's perfect. Thank you for sharing.

Can you sing Beautiful in White by Westlife?! I’m walking down the aisle to that song for my November wedding and it would be a dream to use your cover!

[@sendittojeff]

I pray that you are safe from the storms of Ida We love you! Stay safe!

[@JerkyPuck]

Wow!!!! Proving once again she is one of the greatest vocalists on Earth.

[@bernieappugliese2029]

Yep!

[@lindaederofficialyoutube]

Hi Everyone! I am so blown away by the great response to my cover of this song. Wow...thank you!

[@marshawulf976]

The positive response is 'cause you wear your heart on your vocal cords.

[@EderFan]

💓

[@vincentvjmrk2199]

thx linda

[@i12fly4u]

Please, please, please sing this on 11 October at your show. I live in Melbourne and have bought a ticket for that night. Not sure how I am going to work it but have to be there!!!!! I've been wanting to see you perform for ages.

[@singerAR0406]

An example of PURE musicianship and storytelling. No need for riffs and vocal acrobatics. I've heard this song done by sooooooo many MANY singers and all were beautiful. But to me, THIS is the ULTIMATE. I understood it in a way I've never understood it before because there were no distractions. Just that stunning vocal. The pure delivery and honest heart. That is Linda Eder. Always. Such a beautiful soul. I love you, Linda. Thank you for continuing to be such an inspiration. Xoxox

[@lindaederofficialyoutube]

High praise coming from you, lovely lady! Thank you so much. Hope you are well and enjoying life in these crazy days.

[@theblueangel28]

That is so kind. But keeping in mind where riffs and runs come from, the soul of gospel, maybe not referring to that style as "less than" would be equally kind.

[@swaingles]

I agree with you in every single word of your statement.

[@nathanmetcalf1975]

I may be your most unlikely fan Linda. I am a combat veteran with a couple years in Iraq for Army Reconnaissance...But I found you so many years ago and have loved you ever since! Your cover of "Over the Rainbow" is my favorite song! But this...oh, how you interpret this...Thank you! On this Memorial Day, for me, this song has more meaning than Sara intended and you bring it out. Thank you!

[@RichardSmith-sf2uq]

Thank you for your service Nathan.

[@singerAR0406]

Agreed!

[@davidpellegrene1133]

Yes, thank you for your service and what a beautiful thing to say.

[@donnamellow746]

Just came across this post. Thank you Nathan for your service!

[@marshawulf976]

You are a master of lyrical interpretation. BTW, "Waitress" was the first Broadway musical to have four women in the four top creative jobs: composer, writer, director and choreographer.

[@cresceceliomabanta5626]

You gave a deeper meaning to this song.

[@jeannepv9712]

That was just beautiful, Linda. As you were singing, I couldn’t help imagining what a wonderful performance it would also be for you to sing this in a duet with Sara Bareilles. ❤️🎶🎵🤗

[@joand6761]

This is a beautiful rendition; thank you for sharing it. I only subscribed to your channel about one week ago. I found it after I was spellbound, with shivers running over my body as I watched your performance of “Man of La Mancha,” from Carnegie Hall in Sept. 1998. Your vocal range, voice control, stage presence, and obvious enthusiasm is exhilarating. I had been searching for Broadway and movie songs on KZbin for a playlist to listen to as I worked around the house. I’ve lost count how many times I have watched this extraordinary performance. I’m 71 and am sad I didn’t know of you before now. Yet, I’m heartened to learn that you’re planning on concerts next year here in Florida. Since I have shared this song with many friends, I’m hoping we can organize a caravan to a show next year. Thank you ever so much for sharing your marvelous talent with the world! Best wishes-Joan

[@jeffreyganz-century21redwo82]

How I have missed your voice. Thank you for sharing this. Can't wait to see you in concert again soon!

[@xmykeyx]

Linda, what a treat! Absolutely gorgeous rendition of this song. This made the gloomy, cold memorial day weekend much brighter.

[@EderFan]

Your voice is beautiful,and I am crying.

[@mikearseneault2515]

Linda still remains one of the greatest voices for every generation.

[@Rosannasfriend]

I think you have set the new standard for this song. I feel the emotions more with you than with anyone else I’ve heard sing it, and that’s saying something.

[@annaschmidt9818]

One of my favorite female voices singing a fabulous song. Thank you, Linda!

[@JudyLovesMe]

FAVORITE SONG - FAVORITE SINGER - I’m incredibly overwhelmed right now. THANK YOU LINDA!!! 😭🤟🏼❤️

[@aprilcarter2081]

Absolutely breathtaking and done on an a computer you say is wretched!! How can that be?? No disrespect to Sara but my husband and I believe you are a far more beautiful & talented vocalist! You don’t give yourself enough credit. We love you.

[@saveourselvespc]

I am a professor at Berklee College of Music. I have been using you in my classes for the last twenty years. I include you in all my classes even those that focus primarily on "Foundations of Singing with Soul." You are one soul singing sista. I have seen you once in concert when my dear friend your former guitarist was a member of your band. When this pandemic subsides I will make it my business to find you and the great Tramaine Hawkins and I am going to fly into that CIty and enjoy an evening of your works. As a Vocalist and Voice teacher, there are not that many examples in recent years of singers who cover the waterfront. God bless you and your enduring talent.

[@lindaederofficialyoutube]

Thank you so much for your wonderful comments. I am so incredibly flattered. You made me feel like the rigors of traveling to the gigs, planes, airports, endless hotels is all worthwhile!

[@bryanjohn3260]

Exquisite! Please Linda release as a single!! 💖💖💖💖💖👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@mikeruffino8342]

There are no words. Seriously, you’ve truly become my favorite artist of all time. Thank you for making my heart soar every time you sing.

[@diannes.3900]

Love you Linda! Please keep putting your music out there, any way you can. Listening to your music, I forget about all the bad out there. I get lost in your voice and a calmness comes over me and covers me like a warm blanket. Thank you for that! Looking forward to the next one. ❤️

[@lindaederofficialyoutube]

I am so happy to hear that the music helps!

[@diannes.3900]

@@lindaederofficialyoutube - your music is helping again tonight as I watch Hurricane Ida make its way into the Gulf of Mexico with landfall around New Orleans, on the 16th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina. My family and I are trying to decide whether to ride it out or evacuate. I’m actually listening to your Christmas CD because of the happy vibe. So glad to have you with me tonight to keep the worries at bay. Thank you! ❤️

[@alexsharpemusic]

What a compliment to Sara to have you sing and record her song. I just think you have the most exceptional gift of a voice and always have. I’ve been listening to you since cassette tapes were the “thing” I hope you get out to perform live soon, to me you have a voice that is unrivaled. ❤️

[@dianahauser5390]

Linda, you are incomparable. My family and I have seen you perform live so many times. We miss going to the theatre. Please come back soon.

[@frankfuhs4997]

Coincidentally, about the time you posted this I was listening to the audio book version of Sara's autobiography "Sounds Like Me (So Far)." Hearing her read it was quite a treat, with so much personality coming across. It made me think of your KZbin postings, and how much better we've gotten to know and appreciate who you are. Thanks so much, keep up what you obviously love doing, and continue sharing with us.

[@craigtanner5499]

This is an exquisitely elevated rendering of a beautiful song!

[@marykrevosh9539]

Love you, love this song - and can't wait until you come to Vegas !!! Bring Jake !!

[@willec7105]

Wow! What a way to top off my day! You take us on a rich, deep ride with you and that voice changes the vibration in the room and within ourselves; Such a rare and exquisite gift to share with us. Thank you.

[@jeterchick7]

WOW...Linda you are amazing!! This song should be in your upcoming shows!! Absolutely love this!! BRAVO!!👏👏👏👏👏

[@scottpmcq]

Thank you for sharing with us! Sound great! Look great! When you sing the line about the “Fire in her eyes”, it made me think back to the first time I saw you on the My Favorite Broadway and you had that little glimmer in your eye when you held that crazy long note on “Man of La Mancha

[@petermarsh4984]

The lyrics, a poem, and your lovely voice and musical interpretation make it soar. Thank you so much for uploading it!

[@cjm608]

Absolutely positively without a doubt PERFECTION.

[@ghtsw11]

Having heard various singers attempt this ridiculously difficult song, I wondered what it would be like hearing Linda sing it. Now I know - Utterly overwhelming. Thank you for giving us this masterpiece.

[@swaingles]

What a way of getting emotional whenever I listen to Madam Linda Eder. Linda, I adore you. I wish I could attend a live show of a such talented singer as you are. You are beyond this world vocally, emotionally and sentimentally. Love you, really love you.

[@reveriekitchen4016]

WoW incredible performance love this song..And so much more!!!...

[@Ormusic60]

Linda this was beautiful, I hope you will eventually put it on a CD! Your students are so lucky to have a teacher with such a lovely voice 💜

[@gailjacobson7088]

Thank you. Sharing your prodigious gifts continues to bring joy to many. I hope you’ll continue to not let the stupid technology get in the way ! I know that since the pandemic has eased up, you are back on tour. I hope you’ll come to Minnesota soon.

I have to see Linda in concert! She brings so much to every song and fills my heart! Hopefully in the spring in California!

[@michaeleha4868]

Just got tickets for your concert in the Desert next Spring. Please add this! Brought tears to my eyes.

[@PeaceLoveJoy2]

This takes me back to your Christmas concerts at the athletic club in Minneapolis because you always generously and charmingly talked to your audience between songs…stream of consciousness style - about whatever was going through your mind. And then, wow, we’d get your amazing singing voice and musicality. Grateful you’re back!

[@elaynekessler7226]

I've been a fan since Jekyll and Hyde....your vocal prowess is unmatched.....thank you for this interpretive performance!🎶🎶❤️

[@ericdrain7307]

Just excellent!!! What beautiful words from a beautiful woman! I will be sharing this with my close friend, Dr. Dave Dillman from Danville, IL.. Dave is truly your biggest fan. I still remember the look on his face when we introduced him to your music in 2003. You warm our hearts. ❤️

[@dannygreco4232]

As usual your voice is simply angelic! I'm so lucky to have met you several times in North Salem! You're a beautiful person !
