She has the ability to draw you into the song, as if it was you she is singing about. This is the gift she has, as usually she nails this. Thank you, gorgeous 👩 ❤
"...when she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love..." I keep coming back to this video. Her performances are always spectacular, but I find the pain in her voice and in her face to be absolutely crushing here.
I've been a huge Jennifer fan ever since Sugarland, AND this is my ABSOLUTE FAVE Broadway song...by far! Jen did it with a hint of new country, and it is spectacular! Well done, Jen!💕 Thanks for sharing this with us, Jordan!👍
Its really fun to watch this version right after Jessie Mueller's and Sara's. All very different with each woman bringing something new and amazing to the performance.
I said fun here, but I probably should've made an ugly cry disclaimer. Also, its been awhile and there are more covers. Check out Jeremy Jordan's version and pretend Dr. Pommater is singing it.
This is probably my favourite cover of the song. Jennifer *KILLS* the song deader than dead. So much passion, so much emotion... so much *realness*. You cannot do anything but we in awe of her.
Lacee Cooper this is truly a song thats so relatable on so many levels... i get emotional everytime i hear it... sometimes forgiving ourselves is a bigger deal then we think.. for allowing such ignorance
I have heard this song many times. And I'm not even saying that this version is my favorite, but this version just made me cry real tears. It was so, so, beautiful. Jennifer is so raw and talented.
I saw Waitress on Broadway this past weekend and got to see Jennifer perform this song. It was amazing. I haven’t cried that hard in a long time. The feeling that she put into the song…absolutely beautiful ❤️
Such talent and emotion. Wow No other singer can come close to Jennifer. My hope one day to see her in concert I will say it again WOW , again such emotion
Good Lord she had me so locked in to this performance that I started loud clapping at the end like I aint sitting on break at work with earbuds in watching RUclips smh.. Jennifer I could listen to your voice all day! Wow
This is a great song and Nettles has a Fantastic voice for it! What a combination! Now if the audience could just SHUT UP! I can't even imagine yelling "WooWoo" when Jennifer Nettles is singing!
I've listened to many versions of this song and this one is my favorite 😍 this version brings tears because Jennifer has so much emotion in her voice singing this cover.
You’d think since they are paying to see her they would shut up and watch the show. I feel like ballads are the ones a crowd should be mostly quiet for except for the big moments where you can’t help by cheer for the talent and passion. Regardless, this was an absolutely beautiful cover and you can feel her passion for the song.
Yeah! I got my Jen thread again! No more Bon Jovi. Yeah your house ain't for sale, who cares really. This song was UNBELIEVABLE! Jen is INCREDIBLE!! I got the chills listening to this song. I could listen to her sing all day and night. Luv, luv, luv her 🌹🌈
danakscully64 I understand but knowing how close of friends they are and that Sara wanted to sign it in a duet with Jennifer at her concert in NYC, obviously Sara really likes the way Jennifer sings it. She always puts her soul into any song she does and since they're friends, you can see the respect she has for Sara in her performance as well. Bravo 👏🏼 Jennifer Bravo 👏🏼
You guys should check out Lea Salonga (voice of princess jasmine and mulan)'s version of this song. She sang it at her concert too and did such a beautiful, heartfelt rendition. I've uploaded it on my channel if you're interested. So, so good!
Jennifer Nettles sings the best version of this song. She Used To Be Mine. Nobody has ever known til now this song has followed my life. It hasn't been a fun life. I have two kids & 2 grandchildren I adore. But I have to make some changes for me. This song is me in so many ways Tom Jones.
I'm so in love with Jennifer, there's not another woman/ artist n this world that can invoke the kind of emotion the lyrics induce in the way I feel that truly does a song justice! It doesn't matter if it's her own songs or someone else's - the way she sings makes it feel like your hearing & truly feelin the song n a different more powerful way for the very first time. I've been a huge fan since before she was Sugarland - the night I heard - Story of My Bones ...maybe 14-15+ yrs ago...I'll never forget it. Raw , beautiful, humble & genuinely good hearted person & I pray continued success love & blessings to her. Most definitely one of the most legendary voices that deserves to be recognized & acknowledged for all generations to come. Thank u so much for posting this, shoulda said that years ago lol but , better late than never. God Bless 🙏
Like many, I have listened to some incredible renditions of this truly beautiful song over the past few years but.....Jennnifers version goes right to my heart! Her emotional intercourse with the lyrics makes it so believable and painful it feels like my lifestyle captured in words and music. , tears just fall as naturally as rainwater!

"For a chance to start over & rewrite an ending or two"....such a great verse that must hit home for millions..
"...when she's bruised and gets used by a man who can't love..." I keep coming back to this video. Her performances are always spectacular, but I find the pain in her voice and in her face to be absolutely crushing here.
One of the best singers in the world. What a heart filled girl,

yes!
Mark B totally agree!!

I came here after it was announced that she will be Jenna for October/November. She sounds amazing!!!!
Holy Shit. Ms. Nettles did this song serious justice. What a performance.
Pure class. The audience couldn’t shut the fcuk up and listen to this beautiful voice. She prevails and shuts them up anyway.
Jennifer Nettles is simply the best. She pours her heart and soul into everything she sings. To me she is the female version of Freddie Mercury.
if I could write a song to myself, this would be it, word for word
Lacee Cooper this is truly a song thats so relatable on so many levels... i get emotional everytime i hear it... sometimes forgiving ourselves is a bigger deal then we think.. for allowing such ignorance
Goosebumps
I have heard this song many times. And I'm not even saying that this version is my favorite, but this version just made me cry real tears. It was so, so, beautiful. Jennifer is so raw and talented.
Yes this is an amazing performance! But please do listen to Lucy Jones who was in London ❤❤❤
Jennifer could sing the phone book and I'd listen.......absolutely outstanding, love this woman ❤️
that song resonate with her. You can tell from the emotions on her face as she sings.
The 24 people who didn't like this probably never got past the "skip ad" part.
One of her best performances. Raw emotion and sexy elegance!
I love you Jennifer ♥️👏👍
Best rendition of the song.
Such a powerful performance! ❤❤❤
Just Phenomenal!! Nettles is the Crème de la crème of country music singers❤️🥂
I love the emotion she puts into the songs that she sings💙
I saw Waitress on Broadway this past weekend and got to see Jennifer perform this song. It was amazing. I haven’t cried that hard in a long time. The feeling that she put into the song…absolutely beautiful ❤️
This is the kind of super-emotional song that Jennifer Nettles just takes TO THE MOON!
Yes she has passionate and sings with her soul
This is what real talent sounds like live......strong beautiful and commanding, astoundingly pitch perfect in less than perfect surroundings.
Such talent and emotion.
Wow
No other singer can come close to Jennifer.
My hope one day to see her in concert
I will say it again WOW , again such emotion
the best thing about jennifer is that she feels everything she sings
That is so true Josh!
Ugh AND SHE'S HOT
@@lindatorelli358 a
I agree, she does feel everything......she has a great stage voice
Well said mate
I was a huge Sugarland fan, and this is one of my all-time favorite songs. I'm so happy that this video exists.
Absolutely beautiful.....reaches to the center of th heart❤
Fantastic performance Jennifer! Bravo!!!! 2021
Jen could sing the phonebook and I would buy three copies of the album.
So FUCKING excited Jennifer is taking over as Jenna!
If this ever comes up to be a movie... she HAS to play the part!
Bring Jennifer to Broadway! Talk about throwing your heart and soul into a song. Jesus!
She actually was in Chicago on broadway!
I love how expressive and she is in this performance and in her music video of “ Stay”
Spoke it to existence!
Every time I hear Jennifer, I am amazed by how much passion and control she puts into whatever song she is singing.
and it can be from any genre... that's a real talent...
The 48 people who disliked this weren’t disliking the performance but disliking the audience!
Oh my God. Her facial expressions had me speechless and in tears. She's very good at showing emotions. Very well done.
This is the best performance I've ever seen. I love that she chose to sing this for us.
You should hear a lady by the name Colleen Ballinger sing it. She’s amazing 🤩
She is amazing
Jennifer Nettles
YOU ARE baked in a beautiful pie! Man! You are ON FIRE!
Good Lord she had me so locked in to this performance that I started loud clapping at the end like I aint sitting on break at work with earbuds in watching RUclips smh.. Jennifer I could listen to your voice all day! Wow
This song + Jennifer Nettles= AMAZING!
Oh my god so good
This is a great song and Nettles has a Fantastic voice for it! What a combination! Now if the audience could just SHUT UP! I can't even imagine yelling "WooWoo" when Jennifer Nettles is singing!
I saw Jennifer in Waitress this past November and she was PHENOMENAL
And now Jennifer will be starring in Waitress! I just bought my tickets!!
And now she will be playing this part in Broadway and I cannot WAIT!
wow, so amazing. i could feel the emotion through this performance.
Jennifer, you are LIGHT and pure heart. Deeply felt. Thank you.
Hi Jen, i hope i will see you sometimes in Germany. I love your voice and performance
i love the authentic southern accent with this song tbh.
I love love this performance, Jennifer has so much comfort and confidence on stage, I love Sara’s live and recorded version of this too so gorgeous.
Who’s here after hearing she’ll be playing “Jenna” on Broadway?
😭😭😭🤯💖💖💖💖💖 she’s amazing
I've listened to many versions of this song and this one is my favorite 😍 this version brings tears because Jennifer has so much emotion in her voice singing this cover.
A goddess among mortals, I love her so much
Makes your heart melt…

Never thought I'd see Jennifer do this song...but I'm so glad she did!!😍
Had to listen to this a few times....WHAT A SONG! Thanks JN for delivering it to us!
I always thought Jennifer was an awesome vocalist, and she's only gotten better over the years, this was an amazing rendition of this song
its so annoying when the audience can't shut up during a beautiful performance like this
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!! shes amazing!!!!!!!!
Amanda Helms
I could not believe the noise! I know it was live but people SHUT UP!

I came back to this video after idk how many years and I still got goosebumps. So good. 🥰
gave me chills
Absolutely amazing! One of the most beautiful song written! Jennifer does a fantastic job!,
I am addicted to this video. I just love Jennifer!
I love Sara Bareilles, she's my favorite artist of all time. I'm nervous when I see people covering her songs. This performance.... was amazing.

+Lokz I think i cried like ten times after hearing this song. I think we can all relate.
Beautiful I love it 💜💕🍦💕💚
