That's the problem with tiktok. It's only for short videos.  Just when it was getting interesting it ended before the second verse.

Yeah I know. But most of the people have other accounts. I just thought it was cool because it was very creative and she has an amazing voice, it wasn't a carbon copy.

Um...not sure what to think of that. Sounds like one-person performance art you might see way, WAY off Broadway. 

But I was just talking to a friend about how the first version of a song you hear is almost always your favorite. For example, and I know it's almost blasphemous to say this, but I think Elton's version of Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds is about 1000% better than the Beatles. When I first heard the Beatles version, I thought it was a joke.

I agree 100%. It is for me, anyway. But I don't mind versions like what the OP posted. Its a cool take on it. BTW, love Elton John's version WAY better.

Nirvana covering Bowie's "The Man Who Sold the World", Johnny's NIN "Hurt", and David Gilmour covering "There's No Way Out of Here" are covers that beat the originals so much they feel like the originals
