Who Sings This Hit Song Better?

HacheMan · May 30, 2011

I know some of you may have not even heard this song but it's been a hit lately and was #1 in many countries including the U.S. (For those who didn't know)

So who sings it better....... The originator, or Haley from American Idol?

Both live so nothing hidden behind recordings...

Adele is considered one of the best female singers in the world. And I think her voice is more distinctive than the American Idol singer, who tries too hard put a jazz slant on a pop song, which is Aguilera's style. I think the song works better for Adele.

There is no comparison, Adeles off the charts talented, just sick live, i'm seeing her for the 2nd time tomorrow night. The idol singer did a solid rendition but she doesn't touch the original. The other girl vid, Vicci, I think she oversang it, it's the difference between a great and a wannabe, it's effortless out of Adele. Still a good rendition tho, talented girls just not in the same class.

No I can't stand her attitude, but I liked this performance by her which I stated in the AI thread a while back.

Excellant answer.
Like comparing single A ball players with pro players.
