Haley Reinhart versus The World

[Tusk]

Wild Horses (I replaced yours with the HD F8 version)

For this one, I simply prefer Haley's more gentle approach. But I actually love the way both girls sing it. 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 wish Haley had taken more of the vocals on this, but her role in it is really cool. Bria just kills it, IMO. (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...

Piece of My Heart

I prefer Haley's version of the song. I like her note choices. But I like both versions.

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.)
