I agree 100%,you right about "Oh My",maybe someone can sing Undone,
Wasted Tears or Now You're There(by Candice)IMHO:

It would be up beat yet be a song a big voice could show a hell of a lot of range and power with.
Amber or Candace could do this justice.. don't you think ?
LOL ... .see how I hear Haley songs? ...maybe that's why I hear "Undone" as such and inspiring song (certainly sung by someone that is crush.. but crushed marveling at beuatiful things!)
LOL "What you don't know Could hurt you" is at least a weensy bit less carefree
the rest of the verse is all upbeat for everyone, right?
What you don't know could hurt you
What you don't know could save your life
What you don't know has been right here
If you just open up your eyes
You don't have to believe everything you're told
'Cause to me all your scars are beautiful
What you don't know could hurt you. what you don't know

See, I think undone might be heard to do.
You can make "Oh My" you own, without trying to sound like Haley. And I'd like it to be one of those two songs because those are the likely best bets at a hit.

With so many ballad singers this year, and the potential that chosing a relatively 'unknown' song will get a poor critique from the judges (ala You & I), hard for me to think these gals would take that risk
Although, I could see Kree really do a great job interpreting 'Spiderweb'

I only see Naima Adedapo (S10) or Jason Castro (S7) doing "Lets Run Away" any justice. - Nobody this season.

I think DeAndre would have done "Let's Run Away" well.
And I actually think Hollie would have done "Undone" extremely well.
I'm not sure with this group, in fact..I'd let Candice or Angie try "Oh My" before just about anything.
Still, I guess any Haley song would be a good thing. Here's to hoping one of the big four does it (because obviously, we'd want it done well.).

I have always thought that her Listen Up! album would be very difficult to cover, since Haley does such vocal gymnastics on every song. A lot of hits are made with mediocre singers and can be covered well by great singers like Haley.

It kind of pisses me off that Haley fans are doing this.
Knocking someone else does not bring you or your friend up.
It makes them look negative.. .It can only make a percentage Candace fans dislike Haley fans.. and makes them choose Candace vs Haley... either ors aren't the way.
Go for the "boths".. Haley fans should be tweeting Candace and congratulating her for being great.... "almost as much as I like Haley".. that sort of thing makes them look like good guys while still publicizing Haley.
Candice fans seeing that would be "oh look.. thats cool.. Haley fans are getting behind Candice.. they're our allies.. we like Haley"
Even if they dont' mean it.. they should be positive if they want to help Haley look good. (obviously don't say "candice did it better than haley" that isn't positive either)

In the first instance, Haley had retweeted a picture showing her version of IWHN had climbed the charts. A person replied to Haley's retweet that they favored her performance of IWHN over the performances by Candice and Jordin. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. But Candice saw the remark because she was online and the person used her twitter handle for her name.
I thought it was kind of rude for Candice to venture onto Haley's Twitter timeline and make a snarky remark to one of her fans.
The second instance occurred about the same time. Candice was having an impromptu Twitter party wherein she was asked about Jessica and other Idols, and Justin Bieber, in addition to Haley. She could have ignored the question but chose to answer it. The person who remarked that Haley's version was better than Jordin's wasn't slighting Candice, after all her username is "Candice Glover Fans."
