she's the female version of Evan hands down.

this is my absolute favourite cover of this song! it gave me chills, it makes me wish there were more contemporary characters as complex as Evan written for girls, because there's clearly more than enough talent out there to execute them.

Matty Tingles Well hello!

THE DEAR EVAN HANSEN TUMBLR POSTED THIS!!!!!!!!! UR SO GOOD

Holy damn, that belt on that "worst of me" line, that blew me away!

(Don’t mind me, the random classically trained child in the comments.) Can we all just take a minute to appreciate that this girl is belting/mixing a D#? That takes work, man! Those notes in that register do not come easy. They even tire out natural belters! And the F# in head voice came out beautifully. Take good care of that epic voice! Just a random note that has nothing to do with her performance: the annoying part of modulating male songs for female performers is that you end up in these annoying keys (annoying to play). From what I can tell, this cover starts in G# major, then switches to B major, then ends in F# major (I might be wrong). If there is a live accompanist here, I applaud them too. In summary, I applaud everyone involved in this. Wow.

Hands down, one of the best DEH covers I’ve ever heard!

These aren’t tears It’s Uh Liquid pride

This is seriously phenomenal... I didn’t know what to expect when I looked up “words fail female cover” but this really exceeded all of my expectations. Your voice is so powerful and all of the emotions behind this felt so real. I hope to see you on broadway someday!!!

Great job! I think I know that pianist, too. ;-)

I never meant to make it such a mess I never thought that it would go this far So I just stand here sorry Searching for something to say Something to say Words fail, words fail There's nothing I can say I guess I thought I could be part of this I never had this kind of thing before I never had that perfect girl Who somehow could see the good part of me I never had the dad who stuck it out No corny jokes or baseball gloves No mom who just was there 'Cause mom was all that she had to be That's not a worthy explanation I know there is none Nothing can make sense of all these things I've done Words fail, words fail There's nothing I can say Except sometimes, you see everything you wanted And sometimes, you see everything you wish you had And it's right there, right there, right there In front of you And you want to believe it's true So you... make it true And you think maybe everybody wants it And needs it... a little bit... too This was just a sad invention It wasn't real, I know But we were happy I guess I couldn't let that go I guess I couldn't give that up I guess I wanted to believe 'Cause if I just believe Then I don't have to see what's really there No, I'd rather pretend I'm something better than These broken parts Pretend I'm something other than This mess that I am 'Cause then I don't have to look at it And no one gets to look at it No, no one can really see 'Cause I've learned to slam on the brake Before I even turn the key Before I make the mistake Before I lead with the worst of me I never let them see the worst of me 'Cause what if everyone saw? What if everyone knew? Would they like what they saw? Or would they hate it too? Will I just keep on running away from what's true? All I ever do is run So how do I step in Step into the sun? Step into the sun

You're a phenomenal singer and actress. This is the kind of vocalist I look up to and hope to measure up to one day.

Platypus it is but it helps. Just practice with no music so it doesn’t fuck you up.

Woah. Vocally, this is absolutely stellar. You have fantastic control here, and it sounds wonderful! May I offer one piece of constructive advice? (I’m a high school theatre coach :) I noticed that you seem to have a gesture you return to- your right hand comes up by your belly and does this circular movement outwards (hope I’m explanatory well) From an directorial perspective, it reads like it’s YOUR gesture (you the artist) and not the character’s. I also have a particular gesture I have to be careful of (I have a tendency to do a claw shape with my hand if I’m not careful), and it reads to me like that, or maybe like you rehearsed your gestures so much, it comes off rehearsed instead of as a natural extent of the raw emotion your voice is clearly showing. I’d love to see this start so still and quiet and see the gestures grow out of Evan’s increasing desperation to attempt to explain himself and real piggyback off of those powerful feelings he’s having. I know internet can read as nasty, so please please don’t read this as me being rude or critical- on the contrary, I think you sound fantastic and have a great presence and connection to this song, and I’d love to see you grow with it and keep it in your repertoire. It’s a perfect key for you, and this is a great performance. :)

You would make a great Veronica from Heathers, same sorta range. Mind you, your range is incredible anyway, so I bet you could fit quite a few roles, lol. You're really fucking good though, I got chills

also i wanted to say this is a beautiful cover. It's oozing emotion and I love how you sing it. I really hope you're at a performing arts school or doing this as a career because you are phenomenal. Truly.

I feel like if the genders were switched it would be a lesbian singing about how hard it is to fit in. Anyone else think that?

her CONTROL her EMOTION this is literal perfection

I can't think of a way to accurately describe how amazing this cover is. Words fail...

I teared up at this- the feeling in your voice was so strong

No matter how many times I watch this it moves me

the power and emotion damn... couldn't stop getting chills

Man, she should really be on broadway! She’s definitely got the talent for it!

I got recommended this video almost 3 years ago. Today I got recommended it again. This video is what got me into Dear Evan Hansen so thank you.

This girl needs to be on broadway NOW! Best cover ever! Maybe even a bit better than he original..

This cover describes my passion for musical theatre.

Wow, just wow. Tears. Beautifully done. Thank you for sharing.

This was so gorgeous. I felt everything that I felt the first time I listened to this song - you killed both the acting and the vocals. Please keep up whatever you're doing because it's a blessing to this world.

Woah this is great. The emotion is definitely there along with your singing and that's what I find is most important.

Words fail to describe how amazing this cover was.

I love that your voice was still low. That’s one of thing I like about how Ben platt sings it. You did great and I love your voice.

Beautiful! I wish Evan was a girl now :D

This is the best cover I’ve found of this song, this is amazing. Please keep singing!

it only took until the third line for me to get chills. that’s how you k n o w it’s an amazing cover

Just wanted to let you know, you've still got new fans after 3 years. Your emotions in this role are so real! Let us fans be right here. And never stop shining you pure talent as you displayed here!

I've seen a ton of covers of this song, and 100% honestly yours is by far the best I've seen. Amazing control, you shape the notes beautifully, you keep your singing ability without letting the emotion go flat, no overuse of vibrato, actually fantastic job. Holy shit.

UR VOCALS HAVE ME SO SHOOK SOPRANOS SCARE ME

idk why youtube recommended a video thats three years old, but im glad it did. i can practically hear ben platts version of evan coming through you (in the best ways possible). you sound original, yet i can still feel the original material in your version!

I honestly loved this even more than the original version! The vocals were so powerful... it actually gave me goosebumps.

THIS IS AMAZING!! my fave female cover!!

Shes gonna make it so big one day

That gentle "would they like what they saw / or would they hate it too" took me down. This is beautiful!

Your voice is beautiful! If Evan was female then I would want you to voice her. 💖

Very powerful Vocal delivery Shay!!!! Well done!!! Love this song!!! 😊

beautiful. i wish i could say more but her voice is so friggin beautiful it makes my mind go blank!!!!

Omg that climax...chillssss

This deserves more views! You’re incredible!

Omg your emotion in your voice is perfect!

I- the EMOTION I am SOBBING RN BRUH😭

I LOVE the vocals and the raw emotion she put into this song, made me truly believe she felt what she sang!!!! Beautiful voice, Brilliant performance!!!!

Girl this is stunning. Those high notes are just chilling !!!

My God! You have a gift.

it’s so fckin rare to find a good emotional cover of an original song. this song and michael in the bathroom being big examples, so well done lol

Your voice fits this role perfectly I got chills💛

I'm gonna cry on how amazing this is. Like I love it so much. This is something I would listen to for a long time.

I saw Ben Platt perform this role 4 times and have watched videos of the performers who followed him. This is the only time I've seen this song done by another performer with the same power and emotion. Wow.

GOD i’ve tried to stop watching this, i really have. i am incapable

This gave me chills. God, I love your voice. It fits so well. Also, the way you sang with passion and emotions really gave the song more meaning. Near the end, I started crying, God your voice is beautiful. A round of applause to you 👏👏👏

Dude, I’m not even kidding I’m sobbing.. this was so beautiful and amazing. You have such a lovely voice. You are so so SO talented!

The moment she starts singing I got CHILLS

I keep coming back to this video year after year it’s just SO GOOD

I have watched this at least three or four times now and I literally can't get over the raw emotion you put into it. I get chills every single time!

THIS IS AMAZING YOURE THE NEXT BIG MUSICAL THEATRE STAR IM TELLING YOU GURL

This just showed up in my recommendations and GIRL, THE GOOSEBUMPS ARE REAL.

This is just so amazing, how she was able to copy a little bit of how ben Platt did the song, but was also able to put her own character into it. She has such a talent

This is solid, man. High notes are perfect.
