Great job! This was on the Duets soundtrack. I love love love that movie. It wasn't very well known but it seriously had one of the best casts of any movie to date. Gwyneth performs this song in a hotels karaoke bar. It's transcendental watching her perform. She is amazing.
Living the life in the 2000s ey mate?!❤ It was the best of times. And I dreamt of the lives of you guys but it was different when it became ‘09 and the 10s. 😅 Plus 9/11 had happened which changed everything
She's mastered that flat ending that makes it so soulful. Mixing singing/speaking. VERY NICE! Notice NO ONE changes that dynamite backing drums/bass - makes it all work with vocals for contrast- EXCELLENT singing
Still love the original, Kim’s as well but I do believe I love Gwens the best? My email is @rebchann@icloud.com if you would like too share some of your favorite songs. @CyrusNada
Her hair is Harlow gold Her lips a sweet surprise Her hands are never cold She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll turn her music on you You won't have to think twice She's pure as New York snow She got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you, she'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious, and she knows just what it Takes to make a pro blush She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes She'll let you take her home It whets her appetite She'll lay you on a throne She got Bette Davis eyes She'll take a tumble on you Roll you like you were dice Until you come out blue She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll expose you, when she snows you Off your feet with the crumbs, she throws you She's ferocious and she knows just what it Takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes She'll tease you, she'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious, and she knows just what it Takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes She'll tease you She'll unease you Just to please you She's got Bette Davis eyes She'll expose you When she snows you 'Cause she knows you, she's got Bette Davis Eyes She'll tease you
Of course the original is what we've come to love but I have to say, this is really nice. I'm not a fan of remakes but Gwyneth, you did a very nice job here!
Marcell B. I couldn't agree with you more on this. I also usually prefer the original version of any song/music but this version by Gwyneth Paltrow is better for me than the original version. Its also like the song "When You Say Nothing at All" in which I prefer the remake version of Ronan Keating than the original version by Allison Krauss.
She guested on Saturday Night Live in 1999. She is really talented. There was a skit that took advantage of her ease with different accents and voices. Definitely recommended. 14 June 2015

Bette D. Eyes..Gwyneth Paltrow. She's beautiful, great actor, now a sweet, whispery voiced singer too. If Hollywood is ever looking for THE actress to play Greta Garbo in a BIO...here she is. With thin brows & GARBO eye makeup. WOW. A twin. Love her B.D. Eyes version. Not as edgy, but sensuously alluring. Great pic. of her on this video too.
Hi Danny..so u can see it too! Hollywood better do it fast. Garbo was n her mid 30's in her last film. I'm guessing Gwyneth is about the same age now. She would be a great choice. U a Garbo fan? If so, check out her silent films. She was sooo beautiful! And changed the style of acting. It was all in her eyes
No contest here. Kim Carnes still rules on this song by a mile. The smooth polished synth driven arrangement of the famed 1981 recording remains untouchable.
Oh gee! Somebody mentioned Jackie DeShannon version. I couldn't make it through the second verse when I looked it up!!! Gwyneth's version is pure gold compared to that. I really liked this movie, "Duets". Her performance of "Cruisin Together" was my favorite of the movie.
If you want to hear Gwyneth kick ass, Check her out with Huey Lewis and another with Babyface! On those two songs you hear the full scope of what that girl can do with her voice. Pepper Potts is Iron!
Kim Carne's version of Bette Davis Eyes was also a cover, for those who don't know. The song was written by, and originally recorded by Jackie DeShannon in 1974. Jackie DeShannon wrote and recorded many songs, as well as wrote many songs for other singers. When You Walk Into the Room by Jackie DeShannon......good song
1...Because she's the most hated actress in Hollywood and 2...the Kim Carnes 1981 version is a very loved and popular version that most people love! I love Gwyn and I really like this version and her voice is really good. I also love her as an actress and woman. I watch her movies all the time. BUT...I do know she's just not very liked. If it was someone else with the exact same voice people would like it! It went to number 3 in Australia and her duet for the same movie went to number 1 in the charts so she was supported by Australia.
Jax Blueman You got it!! She is a fabulous actress. Yes, privileged, and raised that way too, coming from show biz parents. I hope she is 'humble' , because I think she is lovely and a great singer! I just kind of like her in movies...not sure if she is making too many any more. Guess she doesn't need the money!!! 😬
Nothing is as good as Kim's version but at least this version sounds like an honest effort. If you have heard some of the other versions, they are really bad. This one is at least listenable.
Great job! This was on the Duets soundtrack. I love love love that movie. It wasn't very well known but it seriously had one of the best casts of any movie to date. Gwyneth performs this song in a hotels karaoke bar. It's transcendental watching her perform. She is amazing.
YES! 🙌 Exactly! 😆
RIP Andre Braugher... Reggie Kane.
I wore this CD out! When the soundtrack to film Duets came out! ....I'd crank this up in my car while bobbing and weaving fast thru traffic! ❤️😎
Living the life in the 2000s ey mate?!❤
It was the best of times. And I dreamt of the lives of you guys but it was different when it became ‘09 and the 10s. 😅
Plus 9/11 had happened which changed everything
You did so well Gwyneth on this version of Bette Davis Eyes with your accoustic style. Big up girl. Love
I've been looking for the full version for years since I watched the movie as a kid and here it is 😁
She's mastered that flat ending that makes it so soulful. Mixing singing/speaking. VERY NICE! Notice NO ONE changes that dynamite backing drums/bass - makes it all work with vocals for contrast- EXCELLENT singing
A great remake by the beautiful and very talented miss paltrow good job young lady.
I love this version!❤
I love this version ☺❤🎶
Gwenyths voice is reallyyyyy nice, and i love her as an actress ☺🎥❤
So beautiful and amazing voice! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
the best cover!
Love this version! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻
I love it better than the original
just hearing music sound of her so chilling cutie ever. thx :-)
Wow i love this side of her! amazing voice!
I super love this song, everytime I. listened to the original version of Kim, I’m always still craving for Gwyneth’s softer tune afterwards
The original was co-written and performed by Jackie DeShannon not Kim Carnes. Her 1981 version is a cover not the original.
@@BreannaMae did not know! Thx for sharing!
Still love the original, Kim’s as well but I do believe I love Gwens the best?
My email is @rebchann@icloud.com if you would like too share some of your favorite songs. @CyrusNada
Actually, THIS is the original: ruclips.net/video/L3ig6yJZE_E/видео.html
She can sing, act, and she’s gorgeous. What a woman.
She nail it in her own way Awsome 👏👏👏🤙
Everyone is entitled to their opinion. It's a softer version, albeit done well. I like it. She can sing alright.
Beautiful version 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Love your version. Thumbs up
Mark Ruffalo Austin Raven Don Cheadle Samuel L. Jackson Scarlett Johansson Chris Evans and Chris Hemsworth Tessa Thompson
she sings in many films like on Glee and when she sings country her voice is really good.
So glad this part was made for her. Had no idea she could sing like this until I watched the movie. Her dad did a great job.
I love this version . ThankYou, Gwyneth!
Why did I JUST find this cover?!? I think Gwyneth nailed it!!! 💗💗💗
Her hair is Harlow gold
Her lips a sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll turn her music on you
You won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow
She got Bette Davis eyes
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll let you take her home
It whets her appetite
She'll lay you on a throne
She got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you
Roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you, when she snows you
Off your feet with the crumbs, she throws you
She's ferocious and she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just what it
Takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll tease you
She'll unease you
Just to please you
She's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you
When she snows you
'Cause she knows you, she's got Bette Davis Eyes
She'll tease you
Of course the original is what we've come to love but I have to say, this is really nice. I'm not a fan of remakes but Gwyneth, you did a very nice job here!
No actually the 1980s cover is what we have come to love not the original. one of the writers of this song recorded it in the seventies.
When Kim Carnes's cover came out in 1981, at first I thought it was Rod Stewart! Same tobacco-wasted voice.
28 April 2017
The original is was sung and co-written by Jackie DeShannon and released in 1973- 74
Marcell B. I couldn't agree with you more on this. I also usually prefer the original version of any song/music but this version by Gwyneth Paltrow is better for me than the original version.

They're covers, not remakes. And the well known version is a cover, too.

Melhor década musical: anos 80!
Great song and Gwyneth does it well.
THANK YOU!!!!! IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS!!! ERMEGHRD! :-)
Nothing wrong with this version , excellent!
Gwen can carry a tune. Hard to compare to Kims version, but well done.
Adoro la interpretación de gwyneth paltrow en esta cancion
Melhor interpretação desta música. Show de bola!
Gosto é gosto né? Mas eu ainda prefiro a versão da Kim Carnes embora ache que essa é um pouco mais dançante e me agrade também.
wooowwww...nice than that of 1980's...love the gestures...
WHAT A LADY ON YOU GWYNETH PALTROW..AN ACTRESS AND OF COURSE ONE OF THE BEST SINGER.. THUMBS UP FOR YOU IRON MAN LADY
Love this. Go Gwyneth! :D
Im surprised, I like this, well done

Her hair is Harlow gold, her lips sweet surprise
Her hands are never cold, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll turn the music on you, you won't have to think twice
She's pure as New York snow, she got Bette Davis eyes
And she'll tease you, she'll unease you
All the better just to please you
She's precocious, and she knows just
What it takes to make a pro blush
She got Greta Garbo's standoff sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll let you take her home, it works her appetite
She'll lay you on the throne, she got Bette Davis eyes
She'll take a tumble on you, roll you like you were dice
Until you come out blue, she's got Bette Davis eyes
She'll expose you, when she snows you
Hope you're pleased with the crumbs she throws you

What it takes to make a pro blush
All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes
Nice and simple guitar. Seven arpegio notes and very suite combination. :)
Surprisingly I really like her version. I heard it in the movie and thought "Oh no"....but I like how she harmonizes the chorus.
Sherri Star there isn't any harmonizing done in the chorus... or at all actually.
@Ian Turner Duets
eu ouvi na rádio essa versão e só encontrei aqui no RUclips. Achei excelente.
Quiet, Luttinx
This is so catchy good job gwyneth.
Makes me tingle all ova, seductive and sexy, beautiful voice effortlessly reels u in xx go on u beauty Gwyneth 😘😝
The photo is also beautiful.
I have to agree with that
I normally don't like remakes, but this had a little Funk on it... 👏 Good job
They're known as 'covers', not "remakes".
Adorei a versão de Gwyneth!
Hate to say this was better than the original but...No I don't. This is better than the original.
Bette D. Eyes..Gwyneth Paltrow. She's beautiful, great actor, now a sweet, whispery voiced singer too. If Hollywood is ever looking for THE actress to play Greta Garbo in a BIO...here she is.

If so, check out her silent films. She was sooo beautiful! And changed the style of acting. It was all in her eyes
+Frieda Waters I love Gretta Garbo. Gwyneth can pull it off (if they choose to make a film)
Love it...
Definitely better than I thought it would be.
This version is better cause she can actually sing ❤
that version is the best. Gwyneth is the most fantastic artist of the World.
this was the first version i heard and never knew it was a cover
this movie was awesome... wasn't very popular... but def in the top 15 in my book
I don't understand why people dislike Gwyneth so much.
Very good! Gwyneth can sing! Plus Gwyneth is an Angel
Voz suave, magnífica!!!!
Bravo Gwyneth !!
Some songs r meant to be left alone but she did one hell of a job not gonna lie really good song tbh
Loved you in Country Strong.
I was looking for this song since a very much time ago and i just put into the google's web "woman that sings like rod stewart" and eureka!!!
I love it!!!
i love this song and she
going to sing this on my Indonesian Idol audition this year.. wish me luck :)
my fav person ever
No contest here. Kim Carnes still rules on this song by a mile. The smooth polished synth driven arrangement of the famed 1981 recording remains untouchable.
I love this version the most
THIS IS SO "CUTE"and "SWEET"🍀 SHE knows what SHE can SING and can do a "GREAT" JOB!!! ❤🎶 ❤ SHE is a "BEAUTIFUL" WOMAN!!!
Gwyneth is awesome :P
And she'll tease you, CHICO ANYYYSIIIOOO...
Guilherme Furtado ahahahahaha genio
ceeeemmm orrrrr a gente precisa ser estudado kkkkkk
KKKK sempre cantei assim, achava que só eu percebia essa parte!
HAUUDUAHDUAHUDHUA Solange feelings
Well me I just love this picture.
Oh gee! Somebody mentioned Jackie DeShannon version. I couldn't make it through the second verse when I looked it up!!! Gwyneth's version is pure gold compared to that. I really liked this movie, "Duets". Her performance of "Cruisin Together" was my favorite of the movie.

James Speller ..Just heard her with Babyface...loving it...great voice
DAMN Gwynny...you got skills friend....
0:47 1:51 I like how she sings.
This was surprisingly very good

I enjoyed it! don't know why all the hate..
1...Because she's the most hated actress in Hollywood and 2...the Kim Carnes 1981 version is a very loved and popular version that most people love!
I love Gwyn and I really like this version and her voice is really good. I also love her as an actress and woman. I watch her movies all the time.

It went to number 3 in Australia and her duet for the same movie went to number 1 in the charts so she was supported by Australia.
Don't understand that. She's talented, kind and humble.
Danny Ocean , she is weird though, her character in Iron Man was annoying and she called one of her kids Apple.
Because all the butthurt Trumpanzees are threatened by anyone from "liberal" hollywood.
Jax Blueman You got it!! She is a fabulous actress. Yes, privileged, and raised that way too, coming from show biz parents. I hope she is 'humble' , because I think she is lovely and a great singer! I just kind of like her in movies...not sure if she is making too many any more. Guess she doesn't need the money!!! 😬
My favorite version of Betty Davis Eyes!
after hear kim, only that beauty combined with that voice can campares, love you gwynet.
Nothing is as good as Kim's version but at least this version sounds like an honest effort. If you have heard some of the other versions, they are really bad. This one is at least listenable.
Good, but no comparable as Kim's original verson!!!
You should listen to Brandon Flower's version :) He really makes it his own. So good.
There's not enough Goop on earth to heal me of hearing this.
why
He'll I didnt know she vould sing :*
Reminds me of the cloud number 9 remix
Muito boa a canção, Very good is songs!!!
Woooow amazing.!!!! this version is better than the original.!!!
Gwyneth's version is best !!! Has that virginal quality to the tone ! Unmatched !
love it
Beutifulllll
Me fascina esta version!.....
Muy buena versión! Llevo años buscando el maxi.
Mentira que essa voz deliciosa (no bom sentido) é dela. É sério?
👀
O filme amigooooo
O single pegou na Europa e saiu com o nome dela.
Great cover.
i think this was the arrangement Taylor Swift used when she covered it, i love the song and i really like what Gwyneth did with it.. Taylor too.
I will give her...just a smile.😊
nice
😍☠loveeeeeeeee
