Katharine's was the best, hands down. Leona's also was v.good, but while she has an excellent voice, she just changed the song too much for my tastes. Some songs are best if they're just sung cleanly, purely, and beautifully, and Katharine did it with all those factors & a little bit more besides. Sorry, but for my money, Katharine's was easily the best! I listened to them all once, then went back & listened again… Katharine’s was the best, hands down.

Kimberely - I didn't like this clip that much, but on her CD I love the way she does it. Kat - hated it on the show, it sounded so phoney for some reason. It sounded much better today - especially on the higher notes. The beginning with the low notes wasn't very good but part way into the song it got a lot better. Leona - never heard her before. She was good and has a great voice. The Simon face cracked me up. Jaclyn - never heard her before either. LOVED the music in this arrangement. It was a more modern, jazzier sounding arrangement and she did quite well. Kyla - Also new to me. It's too bad the sound quality was so bad because it sounds like she had a lovely voice but I got bored listening. So my favorite? Hmmmmm............... based on these alone, I'm going for Jaclyn. But I still love Kimberelys version on her CD This was a tough one for me, with no “hands down” winner.

Listen to Cassidy's CD, called Songbird. RIP, Eva. Leona’s is gorgeous, but it’s almost exactly like the version done by the late Eva Cassidy. Listen to Cassidy’s CD, called Songbird. RIP, Eva.

I know that most Kat fans consider this her best song, or performance...I liked it, but enjoy I Have Nothing better :) LOL, an obvious Kat hater or two loves to comment on these things, I see :p No matter…Kat’s is the best, just like everything else she sings.

That night as she sang it for the 1st time at AI.was the beginning of her journey towards stardom. She will become a legend either in the music business or films.

Everyone else tries to do their own thing with it, but it just doesn't work. Katharine's voice and rendition made me so happy to be able to listen and watch it. Absolutely perfect. I could go on for a long time, but I'll stop there. Katharine McPhee is absolutely brilliant in this performance. Everyone else tries to do their own thing with it, but it just doesn’t work.
