the way carrie conveys emotion in songs is like nothing i've ever seen before. the way she makes people feel when she sings in completely 1 in a million and i'm so proud to say i've been here since day 1 when she was sat on her bed in her parents house telling silly stories to now doing covers of beautiful songs and singing many other beautiful songs in the west end. the way she sings gives me shivers. im so proud of her
I agree, and knowing that she and Pete just broke up gives the song so much meaning. Such a beautiful cover and interpretation. Well done Carrie ! Take care of you
A Sparkle in the Pond How do you know that they've broken up? That's sad to hear, but they're both wonderful people and I'm sure they'll both flourish fantastically apart just as well as they did together. X
Sometimes swear words are needed for full impact, and this is one of those times. This is gorgeous, Carrie, in meaning and performance. Maybe a few tears over here.
Well, what could it be replaced with, anyway? Two syllables, with a harsh edge, coming before a noun... "God damn"? That wouldn't be an improvement, not even poetically.
Milo Graamans, pianist Oh I agree! I only wrote anything about it because she went into an explanation in the description box and I completely agree with her choices!
O my gosh carrie I love you! You may not know it but you really inspire me and many other people to be positive and to keep going on. You are a bright light in a very dark and scary world.
This came up on my "Up Next" 2 years after I originally watched. Thought I would comment again to say this is quite possibly one of the strongest portrayals of emotion I've seen - 2:30 onwards I just can't articulate how freaking powerful and moving it is!
Wow! You can literally sit there barely moving and still portray so much emotion whilst singing soooo flipping beautifully! You, Carrie, are honestly the definition of talent 💖👏🏻 P.s. You are 110% on fleek. 🔥
The emotion in your voice and the way you tell a story through your expressions and tone whilst singing is what makes you an exceptionally talented actress Carrie. It's been a delight watching you blossom over the years x
every time I click on one of your covers I remember how incredible your voice is and I'm astounded like the first time I heard you sing. this is as lovely as you (my aunt says hello and thank you for the picture in animal kingdom, she said she never would've recognised you if it hadn't been for the glasses!)
No matter how many singing videos i watch with you in, your voice never ceases to amaze me. I'm very proud to say that you are my one idol that I wish I could be like. Whenever I doubt myself I always come back to your channel. If you do see this Carrie, know that you are loved by so many xxx
"We are going to be fine"- yep, when I stop crying over how beautifully you sang that song. So much character, and emotion. This, Carrie, is why you ARE a star.
Oh my godness Carrie. You are breathtaking. I can't believe how emotional this made me and Iv'e never Even seen this show. The way you sing is with your Soul and heart, and as a singer myself I know people who can sing, but VERY few can sing The way you do with so much rawness and vulnerability. Hat off to you ms.Fletcher ✨
I have never cried so much at a cover of a song. Carrie your outstanding talent never fails to blow me away. Thank you so much for sharing your talents with us x
I really hope this cover doesn't just become 'omg Carrie swore' because omfg this is absolutely amazing. The emotion you convey is incredible, absolutely love it 💜
It's true. I don't know enough. Don't really get the stuff they say on CNN. I'll work. Get so much smarter. I can try harder. If I mess up, I'll try again. People change, People grow. We rearrange, We let things go. I could be perfect. I could be perfect. Tell me what to do. I could be perfect...for you. Listen. You were right. My friends were bad for me. Thank God you help me see how fake they are. I know. And look. Just like you said I should. I cut them out for good, I should have done that long ago. Now it's just you. And it's just me. Help me through. Try to see... I can be perfect. I can be perfect. The other day your meeting ran too late, I went and ate. I just sat there on my own. The waitor watched me as I read my book, He gave that look like..."How pathetic..she's all alone." I don't want to be alone. Don't let me be alone. No one else can take your place. I am yours and you are mine. So don't tell me we need space. No don't use that fucking line. Now you look me in the face, we are going to be fine. I will be perfect. I will be perfect. I will be perfect. I will be perfect. It's not hard to do. I will be perfect for you.
carrie, you are an angel. you have one of the most beautiful voices i've ever heard. and when you sing, you convey emotions and take on characters unlike anyone i've ever seen. you're so beautiful, thank you for being you
You pour so much emotion in to everything you do and sing and I admire you so much for that, this is breathtakingly beautiful and I get goose bumps listening to you sing 💗
My heart actually hurt from staring into Carrie's eyes. It felt like my heart actually broke a little and if that doesn't say how talented Carrie is what does. For every day I get more and more excited to see Carrie perform in role for more than a song. July can't come fast enough
The sheer emotion Carrie portrays is just... wow. There are a few musical theatre moments that I refer to that made me unable to take my eyes away for a second and I basically held my breath in awe; john partridge's I Am What I Am in La Cage Aux Folles, Emma Hatton's No Good Deed in Wicked, john Owen jones's Final Lair scene in Phantom of the opera, Celinde Schoenmakers wishing you were somehow here again in phantom... and Carrie singing this ❤️
Something I've noticed about Carrie's singing recently is that her vibrato is PERFECTLY placed. You can see how much better she has gotten which is crazy since she was already amazing!
Every time you do a cover I'm convinced it can't get any more perfect, but somehow you keep getting better and better. Your voice and your acting throughout this song are incredible. You have a true gift and I'm so glad you continue to share it xx
I love how you put in the whole performance, even though it's a cover and not part of a show or audition. your voice is stunning, but there's lots of people with beautiful voices, what makes your covers and song performances stand out to me is the emotion and feeling you manage to convey! your eyes even get teary at points you put so much feeling in! true acting 💙
I honestly don't have the words to describe how absolutely insanely incredible this is, the emotion and passion you put behind your performance brings a tear to my eye Carrie, I love you, I love you, I love you❤️
Sean Baker people can really get on small things like that! Idk why swearing is such a big deal in english speaking countries. It is not like you are swearing AT someone...
Absolutely stunning. Can see every bit of emotion in your performance. I know that that's mostly just because you are a wonderful actress, but remember that the Hopefuls love you for exactly who you are because, really, nobody's perfect! Blown away by your voice ❤️
Holy goodness. I felt this song in my heart and I've never even seen Edges. Carrie you are amazing and your singing, emotion and talent are spellbinding. You are amazing. I love you xx
I got chills listening to this. Just watching you act through this song made me feel so many emotions. The emotions you portrayed were so raw and powerful. I loved this so much
That was amazing! Love you Carrie! I hope Emma takes that clip of the work "fucking" and makes it her text tone... I just feel like that would make her very happy haha
I will never understand how to make singing songs like this and pulled seem so effortless and easy to sing. Carrie you have the strongest most adaptable voice I have ever heard. I aspire to be like you in the future
Carrie, you are incredible. You're so so talented, I always enjoy watching your MT covers because of your energy, and the passion you have for theatre really shows. Cannot wait to see you on stage again in The Addams Family when you visit Manchester! X
I really dont see how you swearing is a big deal, they are just words! I get why you kept it in the passion in that one 'fucking' in this song is crucial!Obviously your personal preferences are totally fine if you dont want to swear on your channel, but if anyone disagrees and says its irresponsible or whatever i agree with emma they can fight me! This is absolutely stunning by the way!!❤️ xx
hi carrie im fifteen years old, and i love musical theatre so much and you have helped me get through loads. i have been through bullying and i hated the way i look the way i acted or sung, by watching your videos you have helped me so much and i love you. as being a girl it is hard to get through boy things but watching you has changed my life! i would love to meet you just to say thank you for everything because you have helped me through everything i love you sooo much and i am going to send a letter to you very soon! thank you carrie you are my IDOL !!!! xx love natalie xx
Thank you. Just thank you. Your talent will never not brighten my day from a dreary gray to a nice, hopeful cotton candy purple. It's so funny that you live so far from me, yet you're able to affect all of us hopefuls each and every time that notification bell goes off. Thank you, honorary Big Sister. 😊
When I saw the title of this video I was so so so hoping it would be this song! A beautiful song from my fav theatre writers, so glad you covered it and so awesome you were in a production of edges!! xxx
I love this for a number of reasons; you are an AMAZING singer and the main reason is you can see there is true passion and meaning when you sing this. You can see it in the eyes. I just can't help but think that I won't be able to do this. But you can. and that's what I love 💜
the way carrie conveys emotion in songs is like nothing i've ever seen before. the way she makes people feel when she sings in completely 1 in a million and i'm so proud to say i've been here since day 1 when she was sat on her bed in her parents house telling silly stories to now doing covers of beautiful songs and singing many other beautiful songs in the west end. the way she sings gives me shivers. im so proud of her
Poppy Rothwell this comment is spot on, couldn't agree more. She inspires me so much.

A Sparkle in the Pond How do you know that they've broken up? That's sad to hear, but they're both wonderful people and I'm sure they'll both flourish fantastically apart just as well as they did together. X
wait, they have? oh i'm so sorry to hear that and i hope they're okay, if what you're saying is true.

Milo Graamans, pianist Oh I agree! I only wrote anything about it because she went into an explanation in the description box and I completely agree with her choices!
Omg this is incredible! I bet Emma is so happy that you have sworn in one of your videos
Becky Timmis that's exactly what I thought to😂
chimneyswepluke 😂😂😂
You only need to check Emma's Twitter to find out :P
Ryan Winter Will do

Emma Blackery: you know what to do.
This is incredible! Your voice never fails to impress! xx
the emotion in this is unbelievable! your voice and acting (even whilst just siting down and singing) is astonishing. magical as always Carrie
O my gosh carrie I love you! You may not know it but you really inspire me and many other people to be positive and to keep going on. You are a bright light in a very dark and scary world.
Someone call Emma Blackery! (2:48)
But this is amazing❤️
Gemma McN I GET THE REFERENCE OMG that's an old ass video wow

Already commented but hey ho-anyone else think Carrie should cover still hurting from the last 5 years I think it'd break me but it'd be worth it!
I think she'd also do a fantastic job with See I'm Smiling.
Jessica smith yes yes a thousand times yes
Jessica smith YES DEFINITELY!! Carrie would do it justice. Lea Salonga's version tore my soul to pieces though lol
I would probably cry so much!!
Yesssss! That would be so good!! I want that so much now
Let's be honest Carrie is the real queen of England ❤️
"We are going to be fine"- yep, when I stop crying over how beautifully you sang that song. So much character, and emotion. This, Carrie, is why you ARE a star.
"tell me what to do, I could be perfect for you" hit me so hard love your voice so much carrie!

It's true.
I don't know enough.
Don't really get the stuff they say on CNN.
I'll work.
Get so much smarter.
I can try harder.
If I mess up, I'll try again.
People change, People grow.

I could be perfect.
I could be perfect.
Tell me what to do.
I could be perfect...for you.
Listen.
You were right.
My friends were bad for me.
Thank God you help me see how fake they are.

I cut them out for good, I should have done that long ago.
Now it's just you.
And it's just me.
Help me through.
Try to see...
I can be perfect.
I can be perfect.
The other day your meeting ran too late,
I went and ate.
I just sat there on my own.
The waitor watched me as I read my book,
He gave that look like..."How pathetic..she's all alone."
I don't want to be alone.
Don't let me be alone.
No one else can take your place.
I am yours and you are mine.
So don't tell me we need space.
No don't use that fucking line.
Now you look me in the face, we are going to be fine.
I will be perfect.
I will be perfect.
I will be perfect.
I will be perfect.
It's not hard to do.
I will be perfect for you.
Eva J thank you!!

Don't worry about swearing, if people care then they obviously worry too much in the first place!!
Wimbledon in a couple of weeks!😊
This is amazing! And I promise you, Carrie, no one with a brain cares about the swearing.
We're all too busy concentrating on your stunning voice. ❤️
You pour so much emotion in to everything you do and sing and I admire you so much for that, this is breathtakingly beautiful and I get goose bumps listening to you sing 💗
My heart actually hurt from staring into Carrie's eyes. It felt like my heart actually broke a little and if that doesn't say how talented Carrie is what does. For every day I get more and more excited to see Carrie perform in role for more than a song. July can't come fast enough
Watching this now....absolutely brakes my heart. I hope that you were okay when filming this

My goodness! The story those eyes hold and the emotion in each word of the song. Powerful. Simply breathtaking!
Still obsessed with this insane cover 💓
The sheer emotion Carrie portrays is just... wow.

This was beyond powerful Carrie. I really appreciate the fact that you choose to cover songs that have means and not just the top 100
The emotion in this song! I love how much emotion you show in every song you sing, was genuinely brought to tears. Soo Good.
