I've already commented on this, just wanted to add: This cover takes on an entirely different meaning than the original. Coldplay's original is a declaration of love. Sara's is almost like a plea; a confession. She seems to be saying "I love you, I bleed for you, love me too". It's heart-wrenching. So wonderful.

@saraadams9518 3 жыл бұрын

agree, 1000%. She, as cheesy as it sounds, "made it her own"; in the truest sense of the word.

@arielespadas Жыл бұрын

To me Coldplay’s is a song about being in love and Sara’s is about mourning a love. Personally.

Coldplay is my favorite band. I love them. Own every song they've ever recorded and all live albums. I don't consider this to be someone trying to make something "better." Sara is just adding something to the song like the artist that she is. There is something heartbreaking in this version; something raw and beautiful. I love this. I love it so much. Its respect any time someone covers someone else's songs. She is doing nothing but tipping the cap to Chris and Coldplay.

I could listen to her all day, but the only problem is she doesn't do enough covers, I like some of her own songs but not crazy about all of them. Happy Easter!

When an artist covers a song, they reinterpret it and make it their own. Often, it doesn't end up sounding as good as the original. But Sara was able to take a beautiful, amazing song and play it in a totally different way that is somehow still just as beautifully emotional. One of my favorite covers of any song, ever.

This song came out the year my aunt died. We were so close. I remember listening to it late at night as I drove home from the hospice. This version really gets the emotion of that summer.

“To make a song your own” is the greatest feat an artist could achieve with a cover. I couldn’t think of anyone that does this better than Sara. She is so dynamic in terms of both energy and complexity, and her compositional choices are always spot-on. As an aspiring musician, I feel she is a great reminder to never become complacent with my level of accomplishment. There is always space for improvement, we are capable of such remarkable things.

Checkout her cover of Chandelier by Sia (find a live recording).

I have listened to this song since I was in highschool. It was there for me in treatment after I tried to commit suicide. It portrayed my pain when I cried in bed after my family members did scary things to me. It gave me comfort when I left my childhood home and gave me rest on nights when my mind was torn apart by nightmares of the past. It was a friend when I spent lonely nights in different foster homes. The amount of love and pain in this song will stick with me for the rest of my life. Thank you Sara, for getting me through everything with just a melody.

She's talking about the tastes of today's audiences. Today, people like the fast food version of music; the mass-produced, flashy stuff created specifically for the lowest common denominator. The music of people like Taylor Swift and Katy Perry get all the attention, and while they are good in their own right, lack the passion and lyrical genius of songs by Sara Barielles. Such songs are cast by the wayside by today's audiences, as evidenced by the fact that Sara has been flying under the radar of recognition for over a decade.

Mostly agree, and I do think Sara B may be the most talented singer/songwriter (and "cover-er") of her generation. I do think Taylor Swift has shown that she can write lyrics with some depth, and she does have a knack for cranking out one hit after another. Katy Perry? all flash and hype, and no depth...whatsoever.
