I love how natural she looks. Her skin is glowing and it doesn't even look like she's wearing makeup. Sexy. Voice booming with soul. She is definitely a pleasure to see live in performance. One of the most awesome performing artists to come out of Canada.

I don't really think it's fair for people to say her talent is questionable after watching this video. Most people who have said that probably don't even know who she is. She's mainly an electro-pop artist, and we should be thankful that she's willing to step out of her comfort zone and do something different. It takes a huge amount of courage to do that. She also writes, produces, and sings her own songs. Isn't that talent? It's rare that a pop artist can play acoustically and still shine :)

This song for me takes me to my teenage years. For me there were wastelands I encountered on a magic carpet ride. ;-). But this cover Behind Blue Eyes really made a strong impression on me. Lights or as she calls herself puts an acoustical power behind this raw lyric. Her vocals burn with the heat of a coal furnace, hot and whispery. The Who should be pleased with her performance. I will be looking for more of her work.

Lyrics No one knows what it's like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes And no one knows what it's like To be hated To be faded to telling only lies But my dreams they aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what its like To feel these feelings Like I do And I blame you No one bites back as hard On their anger None of my pain and woe Can show through But my dreams they aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what its like To be mistreated, to be defeated Behind blue eyes An no one know how to say That they're sorry and don't worry I'm not telling lies But my dreams they aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free But my dreams they aren't as empty As my conscience seems to be I have hours, only lonely My love is vengeance That's never free No one knows what its like To be the bad man To be the sad man Behind blue eyes

The song is titled "Behind Blue Eyes", implying that it's an emotional song and needs true emotion to pull it off. This idiot also sped the tempo too much and butchered the slow "folk" vibe. It is entertaining though, how morons destroy good songs and nitwits like you back them up. lol Very entertaining, indeed.

Met her (twice) and she is so genuine and actually gives a shit about her fans. First time it was 105 degrees here in Las Cruces, New Mexico at Warped Tour; but she stayed at her both after her performance and signed everything and took photos with all of us. Thanks to her for that. Hooked for life...can't wait for the next album.

Being able to sing and knowing how to sing are two different things. A lot of people can sing, but you barely ever see anyone who knows how to controll their voice perfectly to suit the song. Thats why this is so beautiful. Because not only can she sing, but she also knows how to sing and make this song more beautiful than the original.

The only problem I have with this cover is that in my opinion shes not 'Behind' the words of the song. To me "behind blue eyes" lyrically you NEED to breathe each word as if its your last one. The song shows inner strength, inner turmoil, helplessness and yet perseverance - " If I swallow anything evil Put your finger down my throat". She's trying I just think her vocals are too 'light' for the song. just my opinion though.

She's quite talented, but this particular rendition really didn't do justice to the original, in my opinion. Of course no cover should ever sound just like the original; that's not my point. Even the Limp Bizkit cover retained some of the emotion of the original. This version just just seems really dry, its missing a lot of depth. I'm not criticizing her as a musician, I just don't think this particular song was done very well.
