    Hey guys!! Howard and I have been wanting to cover this one for ages so FINALLY - here's "Almost is Never Enough"! I'm so blown away by Ariana Grande's new album! Btw, Howard learned the piano part all by himself - he's ridic.
    xoxo CILLA

    Your voice sounds like it's meant for this genre of music. I just finished listening to your version of honeymoon avenue and it was amazing. Seriously, your voice is unique and smooth. I hope you start creating your own music soon, I'd be so down to seeing you in concert in a couple years 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

    This video has always been the 1st thing I watch whenever I go on CZcams ever since I discovered it a month-ish ago, yet I still feel compelled to drop this comment-thank you for this cover, honestly. It never fails to put my mood back up whenever I have piles of work to do. You'll go places, Cilla. Thanks again

    I was just typing away on my phone at the beginning during the piano but when I heard your voice my mouth hung, I dropped my phone, and your voice just took me away. If you see this, you earned a subscriber and holy mother of pearl keep doing what you're doing whether it be hobby or profession. Both of you. I have no words. Just great freaking job

    I'd like to say we gave it a try
    I'd like to blame it all on life
    Maybe we just weren't right,
    But that's a lie, that's a lie
    And we can deny it as much as we want
    But in time our feelings will show
    'Cause sooner or later
    We'll wonder why we gave up
    The truth is everyone knows
    Almost, almost is never enough
    So close to being in love
    If I would have known that you wanted me
    The way I wanted you
    Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
    But right here in each others arms
    Here we almost, we almost knew what love was
    But almost is never enough
    If I could change the world overnight
    There'd be no such thing as goodbye
    You'll be standing right where you were
    And we'd get the chance we deserve oh
    Try to deny it as much as you want
    But in time our feelings will show
    'Cause sooner or later
    We'll wonder why we gave up
    Truth is everyone knows
    Almost, almost is never enough (Is never enough, babe)
    We were so close to being in love (So close)
    If I would have known that you wanted me, the way I wanted you, babe
    Then maybe we wouldn't be two worlds apart
    But right here in each others arms
    And we almost, we almost knew what love was
    But almost is never enough

    i think just being there to show what ya got is enough to threaten them with your ability to sing. Now a days it is not about how good you are or how pretty you are, it is what can you put out and sell is what is trending in the west. Watch the videos of Miley Cyrus, and Beyonce, I think you will figure out what I mean...But I still think with the right people and time just keep knocking those doors... Somebody has to open those doors for you and for all those aspiring singers in Asia just keep knocking!!!!

      Well the original will always be the original, these people just decided to do a cover of a song that they enjoy. It doesn't mean that they're trying to be better. These people are very talented but why even compare ? Ariana is talented and so are these people, can't we just enjoy a cover without having to compare ? 😊

    • @djmane1
      @djmane1 Před 9 lety +5

      enya pearce Because the guy in this video sings better than Nathan in the original, this version is better. You still have to give props to the people for writing the original, but this version is much better. It's all subjective, but these two are just as good, if not better than Ariana and Nathan Sykes.

      @alexandrakirby7685 Před 8 lety

      +Daniel Oh , not pitch correction but reverb which echoes the sound giving it a softer feel. If it was pitch correction you would hear little crackles in the voices and little breaks. X
