It's Over

So in response to Brandi Carlile's new album release 'Bear Creek' I thought I'd post her doing a cover. She has done a ton of covers, why I haven't posted one yet is beyond me. Maybe since it would be hard to choose? Brandi Carlile is one of my all-time favorite singers, if not my favorite, close 2nd behind Amy Lee of Evanescence. Anyway, as I was previewing songs from her new album on youtube I stumbled across a cover she did I hadn't seen before. I like Roy Orbison. He has a ton of songs I love. This one, 'It's Over' is no exception. Brandi does a great job (of course). Her voice and her style of singing is very comparable to Roy. They both go into that upper register and have many songs that incorporate it into their songs. With 'Its over' if you didn't know any better, it could very well be one of Brandi Carlile's original songs. Brandi Carlile doing Roy Orbison's It's Over:
