I love Bria's voice...but she's got a goat vibrato, uses a lot of "tricks" pronounces words funny, has unique tone and has some occasional pitch problems. But after seeing her "steamroller blues" she's a singer I'll always keep track of, so long as she pursues music. She happens to be the one vocalist from one of these shows that Slezak and I disagree on. 
Steamroller Blues

(I think it's the best Voice audition of all time.) If Bria ever "makes it" as an artist, much like HOTRS for Haley, this will be her song. But I'd like to combine Haley's part with Bria's and have a nice recording of that...

Just like when I heard Haley, I thought she might have one of the best voices I've ever heard, I thought Bria had one of the coolest voices I've ever had..but of course, I like the distinctive out of the box voices, so she may not be everyone's cup of tea. She probably would have rivaled Jacquie in my third favorite reality tv singer snowflake ranking if she had been ready to be on the show. (Just too young and too undeveloped.)

Thanks Tusk.
Totally unrelated, but Haley's outfit and hair in Wild Horses is one of my favorite looks from her.
RE: Haley Reinhart versus The World - john - 09-16-2014
The musicians add a lot.
RE: Haley Reinhart versus The World - mercfan3 - 09-16-2014
I like the music, but I prefer the way Haley sings it. By a lot.
I always loved this cover, and I don't even know which one I prefer between Haley's and Glee's. (That's a lie. I prefer Haley's.)
Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga are creating an album together (so I'm sure they'll hit a song that Haley has done eventually..) but for now..here's Nature Boy. I have a special place in my heart for both of them for how they treated Haley.

The guitar player for Diana Krall in the video is Anthony Wilson, one of the musicians who played on Haley and Casey’s studio version of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside” and tweeted about the recording early on.

Interesting catch ISCAT4HALEY. Haley sings the song a lot better than Diana IMO, but I love the music on the video.
In recognition of Haley's pending trip to Ireland I'll offer up this one
RE: Haley Reinhart versus The World - john - 09-29-2014
Haley vs Ann Wilson covering Led Zeppelin
vs. Lez Zeppelin (Sarah McLellan - vocals)
RE: Haley Reinhart versus The World - mercfan3 - 09-29-2014
Both Hanson's and Haley's cover of "Oh Darling" are outstanding. IMO. I was always impressed that he could sing so well while beating on the drums. And this song just fits Haley so well.
RE: Haley Reinhart versus The World - Tusk - 09-29-2014
I think she hung out w/ Hanson at Paul McDonald's Birthday party
RE: Haley Reinhart versus The World - mercfan3 - 09-30-2014
That's cool. From what I understand they are pretty well respected in the musi industry so any new musical connection is a good one. Paul went on tour with Hanson and both him and nicki reed are very good friends with
Them, so it's not too surprising. Hanson was my first favorite band when I was quite young. They are very influenced musically by classic rock, Motown r&b and soul..evidently I'm still quite drawn to that combination.
