The original is already very beautiful however there's something about Amanda's voice that makes any song she sings unbelievably emotive & even more timeless. Undoubtedly one of the greatest and most underrated vocalists of our time! Actually, of all time! ✨
I completely agree. Amanda is the only singer that can bring me to tears with songs I would otherwise never listen to. I love this woman's voice, control, range, and pitch. Her voice is an amazing instrument. She's also really fun to watch. Her performances make you feel the music.
Yes you are right! Amanda touches by sharing her heart all our deepest hearts with all joy and pain. She is so tremendously gifted and healing so much with her voice .....❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏
Boy am I glad CZcams suggested this video to me. I've listened to this song numerous times, as well as other ones by you, and am astounded. One of my favorite songs is "Autumn Leaves", the Eva Cassidy version. You can make magic out of that song and it would be an honor if you were to do it.
I can listen to this over and over again. What a beautiful rendition.. Singing is one thing but you have soul and you bring such emotion to this songs. You make me like them.
There are only a handful of artists that have the ability to stop me in my tracks and get totally lost in their songs, especially ballads. Luther, Celine, Whitney, Mariah, Patti, Anita, Adele... True vocalists & born story tellers... and Amanda Cole you are added to my list of all-time vocalists and I thank you. Being a vocalist myself, I truly hear your God-given abilities and each aspect of your different registers. The average fan has no idea exactly what it takes to harness them all and blend them either to perform a cover true to original or make it our own; but I do and I am humbled by your abilities and truly appreciate your instrument & look forward to each release you gift the world with. 🎵❤❤❤❤❤
An angel. Thank you God for giving her this amazing voice, emotion... such a refreshment and positive energy in these troubling days we all live in. Long live and long sing sister and never stop or give up on this what you are.
This song always reminds me of my younger self, for whom I wish I could've rewrite an ending or two. I'm sorry you have to go through all of those things, I want you to know that you made the choices you did with feelings and limited experience you had at the time and I want you to know you did what you knew best. But I'm here now and I'm taking this over now, here's to the girl who's been gone but who used to be mine. Stumbling upon this cover is the best thing ever, Thank God for Amanda Cole. 🖤
I listened to this 8 times, I think, and how did I not find this before? I can't even express in words how powerful this is..... I have sunk down and needed you to bring me back up and you never fail! XOXOXOOX
Amanda is FLAWLESS!!!! Amanda is beyond sensational!……sign her up immediately!!!!!! Just BEYOND!!!!! I love her rasp and then she gets soft ….vocal acrobatics at its finest!!!!!
After listening to Amanda sing this 3 times I decided to listen to the original by Sara Bareilles. Amanda sings this with so much more feeling, well done Girl, again, and again..........
@@Rosannasfriend well she's no longer the best bc Amanda does something different to this song. Amanda has more soul into it. Many times ppl can sing the same song but we don't feel it unless they feel it meaning they have gone through what they are singing about. Not saying that's what has happened with her but I can really feel every word she sings
I've heard this cover by alot of people but I can honestly say that your version was absolutely terrific. You made it your own and your voice is so beautiful. Gave me chills all over. Thank you
It's not simple to say That most days I don't recognize me That these shoes and this apron That place and its patrons Have taken more than I gave them It's not easy to know I'm not anything like I used be, although it's true I was never attention's sweet center I still remember that girl She's imperfect, but she tries She is good, but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone, but she used to be mine It's not what I asked for Sometimes life just slips in through a back door And carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true And now I've got you And you're not what I asked for If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back For a chance to start over and rewrite an ending or two For the girl that I knew Who'll be reckless, just enough Who'll get hurt, but who learns how to toughen up When she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love And then she'll get stuck And be scared of the life that's inside her Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds her To fight just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes That's been gone, but used to be mine Used to be mine She is messy, but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone, but she used to be mine
WORTH. THE. WAIT. Amanda please, if you have an Instagram please tell us. I know a lot must go into these videos and I understand if you can’t do them all the time, but even if you did little love streams humming in the car, girl we would listen!!! And it would be a gift!!
There is yet to be one cover from you that I don't fall in love with instantly. In a world swarming with vocalists who think licks, melismas, belting on the edge of one's range and oversinging is actually singing, your soulful vocals that always tell a story and convey a rainbow of emotions inspires me as a budding vocalist. To me you are the epitome of vocal greatness Ms. Cole. I hope that you keep inspiring us for many more years to come. God bless you! With much love and appreciation...
This is my song.....a perfect song....and you've made it all the more perfect Amanda...I sobbed listening to you.......sometimes you just need to sob.......thank you sweet Amanda.
OMG!!!!!!!!!! Your voice is so UNIQUE! So POWERFUL! I fall in love with this cover! With this kind of talent, you are entitled to get Million Views! Lots of ❤️ from Malaysia I still cannot move on
Es una maravillosa interprete. Dios te siga bendicen do. Su manera de interpretar hace que uno sienta y viva la canción, es una interprete excepcional.
ive always loved this song but it wasnt until she sang it that i really heard this song and it hit me in my soul so hard i wasnt able to sing it without breaking down towards the end because i am going though this right now. and cutting lose someone that I still ove but I know is not good for me because its more important to love me first and to get a healthy kind of love in my life is more important than settling for not being alone.
There's a YT video titled "Who Sang The 'She Used To Be Mine' Climax Best?" - a compilation of vocalists from the production, Broadway and pop singers, etc.. It's all subjective, but I now think that video needs to be edited after Ms. Cole's rendition....
Girl you are on the level of the greats... Beyonce, Celine, Whitney, etc. My god... The power, control, and unique sound of your voice is unmatched. Always brings me to tears. ❤
Wow wow!! This is one of my favorite songs and you my dear are amazing I can't stop listening to you! I pray you continue to sing and get your voice out there. Thank you for sharing your gift.
Amanda..Amanda, A-Manda!...WOW😱 A timeless classic and distiguishable voice!! Better than the Whitneys and Mariahs. YOU SMASHED THIS!!! Just when I think I couldn't possibly hear a better cover than the last...BOOM🎉 Thank you for sharing such a magnificent GIFT💕
OMG! Again you touch all of us in the deepest possible way in our hearts! Thank you so much for this new song Amanda Cole ❤❤❤❤ You are one of the great Soul-Ladys
There’s something seriously wrong with society that you aren’t already a huge star. Your voice gives me literal goosebumps.

True! ❤ 🤎
I agree !
She needs to be signed by a big record company...we need more people like AC who knows how to tell a story through her vocals...Well Done!
I AGREE.; SO UNHEARTING TO SEE SUCH TALENT BEING UNRECOGNIZED.
I GUESS SHE HAS TO UNDRESS AND SING SEX ... BECOME A SEX SYMBOL LIKE SO MANY!
♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️✌🏿🙏🏿🎼🦋🕯⏳💡🎵💐
Amen!! 🙏🏾🤯🙏🏾
She's already a big artist lol...just Google her
There’s something so penetrative about your voice and particularly this vocal! Touches the core!!! Please never stop sharing your gift!🔥🔥🙌🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Yes you are right! Amanda touches by sharing her heart all our deepest hearts with all joy and pain. She is so tremendously gifted and healing so much with her voice .....❤❤❤❤👏👏👏👏

Can we all please share this out to friends and family? Amanda deserves a million plus views on every video she puts out. Let's make it happen!
This song always reminds me of my younger self, for whom I wish I could've rewrite an ending or two.

She is amazing. It's to bad she isn't performing. I think she has contract issues that keep her from performing.
Every time you put out a song all I want to say is thank you. So, thank you 🤗💖
Beautiful song and beautiful singer. You always put body and soul into your songs. Wow wow
Amanda is FLAWLESS!!!! Amanda is beyond sensational!……sign her up immediately!!!!!! Just BEYOND!!!!! I love her rasp and then she gets soft ….vocal acrobatics at its finest!!!!!
Whos still listening to this ? December 2021 I listen to it nearly everyday 😀
By far the greatest voice this planet has produced. Such beauty in your voice, please never stop singing.
This song should soar!! The voice of an ANGEL!! Love it!!
My favorite vocalist
Mama Mia!!! Absolutely sensational! I am lost for words. Thats pretty rare.
What an incredible voice. This is simply stunning.
Amanda's voice has to be among the best vocalists in the world. Incredible !!!
After listening to Amanda sing this 3 times I decided to listen to the original by Sara Bareilles.
Amanda sings this with so much more feeling, well done Girl, again, and again..........
Listen to Jessie Mueller’s version. She’s the original actress who did it in the play. She is known as the best one and for a good reason.
@@Rosannasfriend well she's no longer the best bc Amanda does something different to this song. Amanda has more soul into it. Many times ppl can sing the same song but we don't feel it unless they feel it meaning they have gone through what they are singing about.

SPEECHLESS!!!! This woman is amazing so glad you’re back!!! Amazing voice! So talented! Loved the song! You look beauuutiful 😭😍❤️❤️❤️
Wat een stem met veel gevoel gezongen .wij vinden haar beter dan sara sorry kippenvel
Nia Hawk yes!
Wow she knows how to intepret a lyric...makes songs her own..
Amazing voice.
I'll always repeat this song never get bored.
So much passion. I totally felt it. Every word. It's different to hear it in a different key, different tone and just in their own spin. Loved it.
I listen to this OVER and OVER. Amanda, you EMOTE so well. I am breathless and soulfully exercised when I listen to you sing this song. Thank you for posting this. The CC only gives broken Spanish lyrics so I am including the English lyrics so people can see them. You are beautiful.
She Used to Be Mine
Sara Bareilles
It's not simple to say
That most days I don't recognize me
That these shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have taken more than I gave them
It's not easy to know
I'm not anything like I used be, although it's true
I was never attention's sweet center
I still remember that girl
She's imperfect, but she tries
She is good, but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won't ask for help
She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine
It's not what I asked for
Sometimes life just slips in through a back door
And carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true
And now I've got you
And you're not what I asked for
If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back
For a chance to start over and rewrite an ending or two
For the girl that I knew
Who'll be reckless, just enough
Who'll get hurt, but who learns how to toughen up
When she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love
And then she'll get stuck
And be scared of the life that's inside her
Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds her
To fight just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes
That's been gone, but used to be mine
Used to be mine
She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine

... At times, my breath gets taken away for a few moments just listening to you singing.. Wish you all the best, Amanda. You are truly amazing.
Wow, wow, wow!!! This is soooo amazing!!! She makes the song event better than the original one, something really very hard to do.
I've heard this cover by alot of people but I can honestly say that your version was absolutely terrific. You made it your own and your voice is so beautiful. Gave me chills all over. Thank you
The best rendition, I have heard, so far.
Amanda has the yoice of the century. She should be among the TOP singers of the day!
I can't breathe.... This is so powerful emotionally beautiful
It's not simple to say
That most days I don't recognize me
That these shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have taken more than I gave them
It's not easy to know
I'm not anything like I used be, although it's true
I was never attention's sweet center
I still remember that girl
She's imperfect, but she tries
She is good, but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won't ask for help
She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine
It's not what I asked for
Sometimes life just slips in through a back door
And carves out a person and makes you believe it's all true
And now I've got you
And you're not what I asked for
If I'm honest, I know I would give it all back
For a chance to start over and rewrite an ending or two
For the girl that I knew
Who'll be reckless, just enough
Who'll get hurt, but who learns how to toughen up
When she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love
And then she'll get stuck
And be scared of the life that's inside her
Growing stronger each day 'til it finally reminds her
To fight just a little, to bring back the fire in her eyes
That's been gone, but used to be mine
Used to be mine
She is messy, but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone, but she used to be mine
