    she has the best sing-whisper voice of all time.

      I mean there's also Billie Marten, but the problem I have with her discography is that most of her songs that I find interesting and re-listenable melodically have melancholic/depressive vibes, and I'm rarely in the mood for that lately, with everything that's going on in the world.

    This is the first time I cried to this song. This version brings innocence in a different way. Lizzie is just magic. Has become one of my top favorite singers and I've been around since the 80s and I'm a huge music lover. Seriously this girl is special. I cannot believe I found her from a short. It's criminal artists like this ride under the radar but she deserves her own airspace so just fly girl, you're incredible

    I love Ryan’s face. He seems so serious, gentle, implicated not to make mistake and serve the song. Awesome cover. Delicate.

  • @Jdbondur
    @Jdbondur 3 ปีที่แล้ว +141

    I was fortunate enough to perform in “mamma Mia” on Broadway and I can honestly say-this is not only the best interpretation of this song I’ve heard, but maybe the first time I’ve actually enjoyed listening to it. Perfect voice, perfect style. Bravo.

    • @fernandoherranz4095
      @fernandoherranz4095 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      I agree. When we hear the original, I don't think we often HEAR what a great song it is. Not until Lizzy here completely kills it with that amazing voice. Brava!

  • @camofrog
    @camofrog 3 ปีที่แล้ว +37

    I never realized how great this song was until hearing this. Utterly enchanting.

  • @billbaldwin3564
    @billbaldwin3564 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    She has the sweetest, most comforting, rich, pure, beautiful tone of voice I’ve ever heard and she knows instinctively how to deftly and artistically use it to create emotion. She’s an incredible talent not to mention the fact that I’m totally in love with her.

  • @PeterCleff
    @PeterCleff 3 ปีที่แล้ว +55

    Geez, One of the most beautiful vocal tones ever. Perfect performance all round people. A new favorite.

  • @jeremyheartriter2.063
    @jeremyheartriter2.063 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    This version brings a different interpretation to the song and i love it. It feels like a pov of an old person reflecting on the lost joy of being young.

    LYRICS
    Friday night and the lights are low
    Looking out for a place to go
    Where they play the right music
    Getting in the swing
    You come to look for a king
    Anybody could be that guy
    Night is young and the music's high
    With a bit of rock music
    Everything is fine
    You're in the mood for a dance
    And when you get the chance
    You are the dancing queen
    Young and sweet
    Only seventeen
    Dancing queen
    Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
    You can dance
    You can jive
    Having the time of your life
    Ooh, see that girl
    Watch that scene
    Digging the dancing queen
    You're a teaser, you turn 'em on
    Leave 'em burning and then you're gone
    Looking out for another
    Anyone will do
    You're in the mood for a dance
    And when you get the chance
    You are the dancing queen
    Young and sweet
    Only seventeen
    Dancing queen
    Feel the beat from the tambourine, oh yeah
    You can dance
    You can jive
    Having the time of your life
    Ooh, see that girl
    Watch that scene
    Digging the dancing queen
    Digging the dancing queen

    Sung like this it almost sounds reminiscent… absolutely beautiful don’t get me wrong, but it’s like somebody who’s looking back at the days they used to spend out dancing, nervous and excited about life and it’s potential.

    Ok, so as someone who thinks all ABBA covers are atrocious.....you've absolutely won me over. Your voice is something else, Lizzy. The level of control you have is ethereal. And I keep seeing Ryan Lerman as your guitarist? Like....what?! What a legend. I keep seeing him pop up more and more and I'm glad.
    Awesome, awesome cover guys! If I could leave the Shia LaBeouf standing ovation gif here, I would. This was fantastic.

    I come from a big family of singers and dancers. The bigger the grief, the more soothing the goofy gets.
    Too MANY of these Souls have passed on now, from the Patriarch that owned the HOME that we met in, others who once walked the unimaginable aisle to the grave alongside us ( helping to carry the body), and who too are also now silent and still.
    It feels like the soundtrack of my life was Powered off.
    It makes all the difference in the WORLD to build foundational moments that involves and include momentum....
    Even In / Especially during times of Mourning

      It has flatwounds and a hot rails type pickup. It has a rubber instead of a bridge and the strings are attached to the tailpiece. Ariel has the same type of thing they sound amazing through amp.
