Wow. Well done. Even though I have brown eyes, I suddenly realize that "blue" is not referring to color but to sadness. This is the best version of this I have ever heard ... and it stopped me in my tracks.

dosn't matter how many times i hear you sing a song or even what song it is....your voice gives me goosebumps every single time....just amazing.

Quite an unknown fact - my dad actually was the man 'Behind Blue Eyes'!! The Who came to Brighton many years ago and stayed with my dad and his housemate, who was their 'minder'. They started writing it there and then having met my dad - ex-military, lost his family and was trying to build his life again from scratch as a bouncer. He still has the most piercing blue eyes, and incredible tales and stories.

Story checks out, however there is no guarantee that it was your dad specifically. I don't want to call you a liar, but it is a fact anyone can google.

The Who are smiling at Janet, the wonderful presentation.🎹🎶🎹🎶🎹🎶⚘

Thats because the people only remember the legends. In every year of music history, there were crap - rly rly bad music. Best excample: The 80s. I am am musician and working with instruments the last 20 years and keep smiling when the people say "oooh i am such an 80s fan, such great music, its amazing" - actual, sure i could name 200 great songs by name everybody knows and thinks its a legendary track. But i could also show u dozens of lists, with an hilarious amount of Vinyl releases who re absolutly crap. And the crap was dominating the 80s. The today known "80s" were born in the 90s by looking back and only naming the "Hits". But these re not rly the feeling u had in the 80s.

Amazing voice. So many "artists" today feel like they have to do all of the vocal acrobatics and show off their voice. Finally, someone who actually SINGS a song the way it is written and still makes it her own! Absolutely beautiful!

This song always reminds me of my oldest son. He connected to this song to show me how he felt years ago. I haven't spoken to him in 7 years. You did a great job expressing the loneliness, the harshness, the despair. And yes he does have blue eyes.

Your voice is so pure and gentle. It’s so original. May all your desires be fulfilled except for one, so you’ll always have something to strive for.

You are my favorite singer now. There’s something in your voice, your tone quality, your phrasing I don’t know, it seems the music remembers what I don’t. You are amazing. Very few singers elicit this emotional response.

Your voice is astonishing!!!!! You are an earthly angel... sent to us..... please don’t let the music industry change you, continue to be that shining star that you are✨🌟 ✨🌟✨simply BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!

She has the perfect voice to make this song both beautiful and unique. Would not work for every song but with this song the fact she didnt just cover but made it her own, a little like the Laura crowe cover of SOAD - Areials.

Meh, u say that cus shes hot. I thought it lacked emotion. Pete hid his sexuality because he would have been a pariah. I doubt this girl has ever been told "no" in her entire, short, little life. No offense, but pretty people, especially, young, advantaged women, not only have people lining up to open doors for them, they dont even know the doors exist. Not saying its wrong, just that its been empirically proven.

Well, Jenet it is an awesome song and your voice was a perfect match to the way this version should sound. Thank you for who you are and your Talent.

My second favorite cover you have done. I can listen to this over and over, its very touching. You have such a unique voice and style, even though I've heard this song a million times you have brought a tear to my eye. Your music touches the soul and everything feels so real when I hear you sing. Kinda like that one star in a starry night that you look for not because its the brightest but its the one that reminds you that you are looking into the heavens, and every thing is wonderful. You miss it when its gone.. thank God for You Tube. Thank you for being you. Don't ever stop singing.

Still love the accent when you sing, its strong and angelic and relaxing all at the same time..

Just adore your voice 😍 setting on my sailboat in the Bahamas listing to the magic spells you weave.....

It sounds beautiful (though personally I like a tiny bit of sliding on the notes rather than each being perfectly tuned). I miss the middle section though, for me emotionally that's the heart of the song. And if I shiver, please give me a blanket / Keep me warm, let me wear your coat. Missing that, and putting in another verse, was for me the worst crime of the Limp Bizkit version. But to each his / her own :)
