I listend to the norwegian radio i my car this afternoon, and they were playing your music . I hurried home and I have been listening to Dance monkey for 1 hour now. Fantastic. I am 71 years old, but i just love Your voice

[@whatamachine89]

Thanks for sharing!! I love that the older generation can appreciate newer music

[@KrixsLV]

Haha ! Same thing happened to me ! Also in Norway and also in the car :D and same think with home, 1hour with monkey song :D

How the hell is she going to do that?? Oh OK she will bring world peace and end the hunger with that annoying noisier voice.... FOH with that comment, she will never feel the pain of the people who suffer, it's clearly to see that this "pretty woman" was born with a silverspoon... FOH x2

[@rooguex4488]

@@ccayao3723 annoying noice?? i dont think so, she just had a particular voice which different from others. Also, u can hear the singing skill in her voice. Ohh u said that she never feel people who suffer?? How u know that, are you her?? She might trained hard on her piano skills? She might suffering all the day bcz of her hater??Did u feel her pain??No.. Respect Please. She might cant bring world peaceful nor end world hunger, but u dun know how many people dancin by the beat of her song... A person is not born with silver spoon when he/she hav to work hard to catch their dreams...

That was so much more than a cover. You made that YOUR OWN in a way I’ve never known before. You are soso Unique. And that is what we need to focus on in this world.

[@kwisseman5981]

I felt so much emotion from this cover. I remember the original was popular when I was in high school. I think her rendition of this song is so much better!!! No disrespect to OutKast!

[@SoSoEmelia]

Me as well. Completely unexpected

[@williamburrell1399]

So I'm 51 years old, can sing but never persued it. Life long viewer of every singing competition show out there whether Xfactor,, The Voice etc. They all teach conventional Orthodox singing styles. Then here comes this girl and takes all these notes, sounds, melodies, and bends the living you know what out of them, scrambles every Orthodox singing rule there is and makes the most beautiful melodic omlets I've ever heard. She just turned conventional singing upside down and made it totally cool to sing this way. What she did with this song considering what it normally sounds like is straight genius!! This girl is just getting started too. Love her.

[@michaelhardy5339]

"Melodic omlets"🤣🤣 Oh snap😆I love that!!

[@benjammin2020]

Definitely. I just hope she doesnt mess up her vocal cords in a couple years.

[@hanniffydinn6019]

It’s how music used to be. In the 50s 60s 70s, now they use too much auto tune and fakery.

[@charleshjames475]

I agree she's amazing

[@stoogiehat8343]

If you think she started it youve must not listened to many artists.

[@brendathomas3656]

I love watching her sing and pour her heart into her songs that's what makes her so good

[@davidagiel8130]

This song is gonna be iconic if it already isn’t, reminds me of all the great Aussie songs from the 80s that made it big worldwide.

[@timothiturner5218]

[@GrooberNedJardine]

She owns this song ,and makes it her own , what a great interpretation , shes brilliant , and i'm a 64 year old retired muso with 7 independent recording albums , and i started watching her from her Dance Monkey song , wish i'd gone down the road and saw her in Byron before she became famous . Ohh well God blessed her with talent .

[@tammybray5008]

This song you can really hear the Adele in her come out. WOW! Amazing

[@chanelwade9552]

GrooberNedJardine Y es wish I ran into her there too! What a great comment coming from another muso! She really deserves all these great comments! What sort of music do you sing? Intersted😊

[@GrooberNedJardine]

@@chanelwade9552 , Well back in the day , mostly did covers , Eagles , Doobies, George Thorogood , Bob Segar , But when i formed my own Band called ( Lonely town ) we performed original songs mostly , you would call the Genre probably country rock . We were based on the Gold Coast , received reasonable radio airplay , also played in several battle of the bands , Yamaha rock 90 awards , Playroom gold coast , won our heat etc , performed in both QLD , and NSW for around 25 years or so , but enough of me , with all this Covid deal the usual venues where i live like Splenda ,Byron Blues festival , and Falls festival , are all cancelled so it must be difficult right now for artists like her to gain exposure , feel real sad for young artists in these troubled times , anyway thanks for your question , cheers .

[@johnzuijdveld9585]

So glad you said this, in another place s/one else said she didn't have any talent (he'd done 3 covers) and I think he missed the point! Technically she may not be brilliant (I'm no judge OR expert) but she knows how to make others feel what she communicates, she reminds you of your vulnerabilities and so you become more 'compassionate' maybe. I'm 66 and I get tears when I listen to her song.

[@lori639]

I agree with you GrooberNedJardine 100% , and I am 56 years old

But definitely nice singing voice.

[@zerolives01]

Such an iconic voice. So unique. Once in a generation sound

[@sandrajon1]

Your voice is so unique and amazing and powerful. Don't ever stop singing girl, there are not a lot of artists with a voice like yours and you can go so far with your music career. You're such a beautiful young lady and I just can't get enough of your music. And I know this might sound a little morbid but, every time I listen to dance monkey I pick up my husband's urn and I dance with him because he would always randomly grab my hand and dance and he would have loved to dance monkey. He passed away 17 months ago in a really bad car accident so dance monkey is about the only song that I can dance with my husband's urn.

[@debs2026]
