[@RayvenLunaNite]

Bring Me To Life changed my life. It showed me that younger women could be famous singers, so 9 year old me started singing, Evanescence my coach. 24 years later, I sing to Nightwish with Tarja and Fleur

[@jemieculp6847]

The first thing that came to mind when she mentioned Evanescence was Nightwish. Some of what's in their catalog is a lot harder than Bring Me to Life. I was actually surprised Ghost Love Score wasn't on this list just because of the amount of stamina that song takes. Yeah there's no ungodly ridiculous high notes, but that song is EXHAUSTING, which is why the instrumental interlude part is so necessary because at that point in the song the singer needs a damn break. And as much as I enjoy Tarja, I think Floor brings something different to Nightwish. Vocally, that woman is a beast in the best way possible. On another note about Nightwish, I was so sad to see Marco go. :(

[@cheri1687]

Fun fact, Amy does not like that version of Bring me to life, another version was recorded but the studio wanted to add the males voice. She perfers what was meant to be the original song with only her voice. Which is why if she performs it live, she mainly does it without a male singer. I do think she has the original up with out the male voice.

[@xdream000]

Try looking for the Wagakki Band / Amy Lee duo of Bring me to life. You won’t regret it.

[@guilleb7551]

They don't bring metal bands because they're not that popular for this channel, otherwise we'd have nightwish all over the video

[@normairizarryni]

[@BDogGrizzly]

Lacuna Coil or Nightwish should have been on here somewhere. They have some Female Vocal lines that are impossible to repeat.

[@soulfullginger88]

I notice that most of these are all rock or pop songs. Nothing against that, I love Amy Lee, and the rest are undeniably talented, but throw some metal in the mix if you want to see range and skill mixed with some commanding stage presence. Tarja, Floor Jansen, Sharon, Simone Simons, Christina Scabbia, Alyssa White-Gluz, Elize Ryd, Lzzy Hale, and more deserve spots on this list. Cast your nets wider than 80's, 90's, 00's rock and pop and the Disney/ Nickelodeon abused child stars and lets get a spectacular list going!

[@Howayiz]

I think a harder Evanescence song to sing is Going Under. A good number of their songs are hard to sing, just because of Amy's voice. And considering she never had any vocal training, that makes it even more impressive. Evanescence should definitely be higher up the list, like in the top 10.

[@cassiopeevlapierre7919]

Agreed.

[@mijalakis3]

If someone has a repertoire of difficult songs in mainstream media definitely is Mariah Carey. She is extremely talented as a vocalist, she really has a gift from God and she knows it. She writes and produces her music based on her singing skills which are vast and unparalleled whistle register aside (which is hard to even hit 1 whistle note let alone use it the way Carey does, she makes thrills, arpeggios, runs, vocalize actual phrases. In a live performance for her 2003 song "The One" she did runs of 55 notes in whistle regiser whilst smiling) she makes thing look effortless when in fact her vocal line is insane, she makes register jumps seamlessly of up to 3 octaves and is capable of singing low notes that even some men can't descend to. That's why regardles of the fact that she is a global superstar, a true icon and one of the best vocalist ever, you barely hear a cover from her song and it's because trying is literally vocal suicide.

[@stacym735]

Patsy Cline's "Crazy" sounds simple. But I swear it exists only to shine a spotlight on every flaw in a less-than-stellar singer's... well, singing. Voice, technique, phrasing; Crazy is a monster!

From her first filmed performance to her last, her joy, her strength, her love for this song was so......... well, natural. You could see that even though her version was a cover, it was truly a song that was a part of her soul. I could never not watch her perform this song.

[@milkmandrew8866]

the fact that a powerhouse vocalist like Floor Jansen isn't even mentioned on this list, when she literally blows most of these ladies out of the water, is so shocking to me. Floor can literally sing anything she wants, and in fact, she has. The covers she has on her KZbin channel is proof enough, not to mention when she sings Phantom of the Opera. But if you want a true testament to how well she can sing, just listen to songs where she BELTS high notes like there's no effort in it at all (Ghost Love Score, Storytime and Greatest Show On Earth are just a few examples), I wish western audiences got to experience her more often, she's literally a superstar.

[@Howayiz]

When I clicked on this video I thought to myself "If they don't have something on here by Nightwish, they are clearly missing out" cause no matter which singer you pick, you're gonna have some belters. Yes, Annette's range was the smallest of the three, but she's standing amongst Tarja and Floor, who are very tough acts to live up to- but some of the most known and iconic songs were with her as their lead singer!

When I first started taking my singing lessons one of the first things my teacher told me was that my voice was similar to Judy Garland’s. It’s been about three years since then but I have never forgotten that comparison and complement. I love music from the 30’s-50’s so that’s probably influenced my way of singing but I have never and probably will never forget that comparison.

Almost every song I would name is in this list. The one song that wasn’t on the list is Alone by Heart. It requires so much breath control and emotion. Very hard!

[@rubygracemoseley8144]

I’m so happy that you included Broadway songs. That is chalk full of songs that are incredibly hard to pull off. I’ve sang music from The Phantom of the Opera, Waitress and sang Memory from Cats at an actual performance and all of those were incredibly hard to pull off. Another one that is hard is I Have Confidence from The Sound of Music. That was one of the first songs I sang with my music teacher and my gosh is it hard. Julie Andrews makes it look effortless but it is definitely not that 😂 You have to tackle these powerful notes, singing pretty fast and you have to keep up your happy, excited, confident energy throughout the song. All of which is hard to do. I had a blast singing it though!

Conspicuous in their absence are Adagio and Je Suis Malade by Belgian born French-Canadian Singer-Songwriter Lara Fabian. At 53 Lara is capable of every emotional full range song that made her an international star in her 20s. In one performance during belting a high A, Lara held the mic at her waste. That's the kind of power she has with fully warm resonance. In The Netherlands Glennis Grace covers Whitney Houston almost noté for note. Glennis can sing any Whitney song with ease. She has also covered Beyonce both Halo and Listen. In addition to her covers she has Dutch language albums with both new and classic Dutch somgs including the challenging Afscheid.

[@luziel3071]

While it’s not an easy song to sing “Bring Me To Life” is actually one of the easier Evanescence songs to sing. There are WAY harder ones. Amy herself has said “End of The Dream” and “Cloud Nine” are some of the hardest ones for her and she has to really concentrate for them. I would argue that “Weight of the World”, “The Change”, “Take Cover” and “Blind Belief” are some of the hardest as well

[@onehotsicilianmama]

Def The Change. Hard for me not to cry while singing it. Lithium too. Love Amy Lee 💜

The liner notes from Riperton's compilation album Petals, the melody for "Lovin' You" was created as a distraction for her baby daughter (actress Maya Rudolph) so that Minnie and her husband Richard could Hang out.

[@melissacoviello2886]

Love this, 4 of these songs were covered by Pentatonix/Superfruit with Kirstie doing Somewhere over the rainbow and Mitch Grassi doing chandelier (in a bones episode) and Defying Gravity. And they all did Total Eclipse of my heart.

[@CooperMINI-vc2hp]

Basically I agree with the list. You just forgot Dutch singer Floor Jansen with the Finnish Band Nightwish. Take whatever you want. Live (!) at Wacken or Wembley would be a good start. I doubt that any of these ladies can cope with her. Enjoy. You are welcome.

[@gidgitvonlarue9972]

'Hurt' song breaks me every single time - very very close to my heart and own life. I even cried just listening to parts of it.

[@D.W-rn1ld]

Would add Celine’s Only One Road, that one is difficult as hell.

[@forcesupreme300]

Yeah your right

[@jaycastro07]

There are tons of difficult songs from Celine she can easily fill up this Top 30!

[@Somegirl811]

This is such a fun watch! TY! Of course, you can't name them all, but this was a start. Please do a part 2!!! With Bjork and Traci Chapman Donna Summers Liza Mielli! Lol fr tho

[@jackieedmondson8422]

I have never heard of the Asian female singer but wow what a voice!!!

[@camiloruiz9327]

Miki matsubara - Saty with me, was amazing

[@Krobra91]

,My Heart will go on was a song james cameron didn't want. James Horner secretly recorded it and played it for celine and her husband in vegas.. Celine did NOT like the song. Her husband convined her to record a demo and the soundtrack we hear was Dion's one take demo that they built the orchestra around. She wasn't even feeling well that day when she went into the recording studio

[@jonathanvelazquezph.d.2719]

Emotions is truly mad! Even if you can access the whistle register, the song requires high chest voice, low notes, head voice, riffs and runs, powerful belts, and signature melissma. 😵‍💫 I'm not surprised to see it at number one.

[@CurbsidePandasReseller]

I knows she’s a different genre .. But Patsy Cline had beautiful vocals .. also where was Janet Jackson ? Janis Joplin ? Ann Wilson ? Stevie Nicks ? Missing some amazing artist ..

[@samuelcollantes1175]

I will always love you. Happy friday afternoon, Phoebe, take care and God bless you. Greetings from Colombia to you as well.

[@JoseliJunior]

The narrator wants to show us she attended French classes saying Zeline Dzion

[@xMUNECAx]

Lmaooo right, I rolled my eyes everytime she said it that way. 😂

[@joycegardner7472]

I really wish she would just say the names without the accents. She uses a fake accent with every foreign name not just Celine's.

[@mariehernandez5878]

Why not pronounce them correctly if you can?

[@francoissawyer4661]

I am from Québec and I found the prononciation to be accurate

[@chrisjohnson7929]

Or alternatively they are just from Québec. 🤔

[@ChiefDean1]

Cant beleave you didnt mention Floor Jansen ,Nightwish

[@mscarlson1498]

It's a shame!!! Her vocals are out of this world ❤

[@catherinehogan8628]

Sad how Judy Garlands life turned out

[@marianglynn4005]

You all should have added Barbra Streisand’s “Woman in Love”…. the sheer length of time she holds some of those notes is INCREDIBLE!!! You all may need to do a part 2, of this video.

[@cassiopeevlapierre7919]

I'd like to add Halestorm's cover of "I want you (she's so heavy)" for the power and range, and Heart's "What about love" (the ending requires so much stamina it's scary), and Loren Aldred's "Never Enough" (and live, she's absolutely KILLING it at the end)

[@doclewis8927]

I love "Running Up That Hill" but the cover by Placebo is a very interesting and melancholic rendition. Would definitely recommend to listen to that cover if you've never heard it. You won't be disappointed.

[@AndrAiaNighthaven]

Yes, to me it brings the perfect emotion to it

[@ChrissyLarson]

Let's be honest, Mariah Carey, Celine Dion, Whitney Houston and Amy Lee have voices that are one of a kind and awesome. But there are so many women that have a voice that at some point in their singing that is special. I personally really like Hillary Duff's voice. And the raspy sound of Miley Cyrus in the climb is epic. And let's give every type of music it's due .. because if you wanna hear a woman with a vocal range that is not even human go have a listen to Jinger , the song called Pisces. The reaction video of 25 vocal coaches to the song is one of the best reaction videos I have ever seen

[@bryanrandolph731]

Jinjer - "Pisces" or "Perennial".

[@sandhyanagarajan]

No way Chandelier by Sia is harder than Vision Of Love by Mariah. That's completely false. Good list overall though. Chandelier's not easy, but Mariah's Vision Of Love is vocal suicide.

[@jaycastro07]

Not really
