GURL. That description is so real. Related to it a little more than I wanted to. ha seriously though, you are so incredibly talented. I will be rooting for you and supporting you no matter what you end up doing. I really hope you find a way to make music a source of positivity in your life because I love your voice and your videos. Sending love and positive vibes your way :)
It's refreshing to see a new cover of yours on my subscription feed. Sending lots of prayers, love, and luck your way for your future endeavors. New beginnings are stressful and usually feel like the end of what was before, but it doesn't always have to be the end. Hope you're having a nice summer despite everything you've been facing over the past four years. Xoxo
i almost didn't read the description. thank God I did. I believe in you! your music will heal lots of people, and even though your faith may already have saved you, i hope music will heal you too.
Hey Amy! I just came back to your channel today after a few years. I used to listen to youtube covers a lot in my early years of high school and randomly sort of stopped. It's been a weird day and for some reason all I wanted to listen to was your cover of "Swing Life Away". I'm not sure what it is about that cover exactly or where I was in my life when I first discovered it... but that cover has had a huge impact on me. I know you may feel lost at the moment but just know that even if you aren't sure if you want to post a video just know that there is someone out there who will love it and it will become THAT song or cover for them. Even if you wonder at times if music is in your future in terms of "making it", it can still be a part of who you are no matter what happens. I would, however, advise you to stop waiting. As soon as you stop waiting and make something of your life then you will always have music to come back to and I promise singing will be even more rewarding once you stop focusing on it too much. Stop waiting, gain perspective and just know that you already have made a huge difference in so many people's lives. Don't let music stop you from moving forward with your life... Use your music to find something you want to do!
It's so crazy because I heard a couple of your covers years ago, one of which was "Only One" ... and then only a few months ago I thought about it randomly and tried to find it again. Coincidentally, It was LITERALLY the day after you had uploaded your re-cover of it. Since then I've pretty much only been listening to you and although I think i only have less than 20 songs on my iPod right now and your covers are half of them, haha. Also, I've watched videos from your other channel as well/follow you on instagram and it's kinda funny because I feel that I know you pretty well when you don't know me at all! Honestly though, if I could have any voice in the world it would be yours- I think its perfect and it's unique! I LOVEEE LOVE it - You should SERIOUSLY upload more, please. But I completely get you with the perfectionism thing (I'm the same way) and I think in this society we live in we're programmed to hate ourselves in a way (especially as females). MAN though... to me it's amazing how you could possibly be self-conscious! I hope you soon realize how amazing you are, the amazing Amy!
You’re so talented. I’ve been listening to your covers for years. I don’t think anyone’s voice soothes me as much as yours. I’ve told you many times before, but you are amazing.
Amy I will never not get excited when you post a new cover! I am so glad you didn't delete your channel! I can't tell you how many times when I'm going through something that I just go back and watch your older videos and just get lost in the simpler times in my life, the times of live chats and weekly covers and how easy it once was and for a few mins I forget how hard the real world can get. I hope you find yourself and everything works out this transition in life is so hard trust me I get it! Anyways I will always be here to support you and your music whenever your ready even if it's 10 years from now!
I've been a subscriber for so long, and you're my absolute favorite musician I follow. I've watched as all these other RUclips musicians make overly-produced "music videos" for every cover, then push the cover on iTunes. Then there's you and you're so raw and real, and you don't need to sing into a tone-correcting microphone to sound that way like everyone else. You have real talent, flat out. The possibility of failure is really terrifying, but the possibility of flying is pretty dang exciting.
Oh god i have no idea where to start and just know that i reallY REALLY love every single one of your covers and your voice is truly amazing. I love how raw everything is, unedited, and its lovely to see that you arent changing into one of those fancy music-video youtube singers. Do keep up your wonderful marvelous work and never give up EVER. And you dont have to explain why your uploads are overdue - anytime you upload, we're all happy. Love you, stay strong ♡
I am so sorry to hear that you went through personal hurdles in the last few years, but am SO happy that you are going to upload with more regularity now. Your channel is one of my absolute favorites because your voice is unbelievable and your songwriting is perfect. Keep on being you, and please let us keep following alongside you in your musical journey!
Beautiful!!! I remember being so excited for you with the Miley contest. You're even more amazing now and I hope you find your inspiration! You inspire so many people!
So I was sitting here and thinking about old youtubers I used to be obsessed with and I was like "Who was that girl singer who I was absolutely obsessed with and won that miley contest??" I searched long and hard until I found you. I'm so happy to see your voice is still so freaking amazing. I wish you the best in your life and figuring it all out.
Oh Amy how i have missed your voice! I swear if i were tech savy i would have a compilation of all your covers as mp3s! There's always been something so unique & soothing about your voice & i can never get enough of it. Please, keep it up Beautiful :)
Amy - you are amazing. Your voice is fantastic and I can hear the passion in your voice as you sing! I'm so sorry it's been so hard for you with your struggle with music, schooling, etc, but I promise you will pull through whether this means taking a 'continued' break from music. You will accomplish great things :) Don't let your anxiety overcome you. I'll keep you in my prayers!!!
I so so so wish getting over the anxiety wasn't easier said than done. But , it's a battle. I seriously appreciate your words with all my heart. So much thanks and love
You don't post as often as some other musicians, but every time you do I just have to listen because I know I'll love it and I always do lol, like this one! Music is so complicated, I wish you luck on your break and your return to music :D!
You have such a beautiful voice. I hope you get through this journey strong and find that passion and love for music to overshadow fear and the pressure of being inadequate. You're voice isn't like any other. I'll always be your fan and supporter. Love you!
That was BEAUTIFULLY written, "I hope you get through this journey strong and find that passion and love for music to overshadow fear and the pressure of being inadequate." SO much love. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, xoxoxo
Oh my goodness, Amy. I have missed your voice. I remember way back when you were in the competition and voting for you and subscribing then. Crazy it's been that long. You are more and more wonderful every single day. The Lord gave you this talent for a reason, whether you understand it now or not. You were truly blessed. Don't give up. Hold on and I know for sure you'll continue to do great things and bless people with your voice! This cover is by far the best I've heard yet. You're incredible. Don't forget that. Ever.
I found you on Instagram and you are amazing! Have you ever thought about putting yourself out there like doing the voice? Or something like that? you are truly gifted no joke
You do you! I know what it's like to go through heavy stuff (I am right now) sometimes the things you love aren't the same as before. You've got a real talent, I'll support you with whatever you do. I've been subscribed for a while and I always will be!
Ever since your "Fireflies" cover ive been hooked. I always believed in your voice and was quite curious to what happened with the whole Miley thing but truth is you're better than that. You have raw talent and dont need to win a contest to feel like you're good enough. Your voice is lovely believe in yourself like we do :)
Dang..... I appreciate that more than you could ever know. Thank you thank you or hank you !! And to be honest, I myself don't even REALLY know what happened with Mileyworld! I was waiting and waiting and told it would happen and then all the sudden it was just, done. But still I'm trusting God that it was for good reason.... :)
I've been subscribed to you forever, and reading your description to this video was like reading something i wrote. It's exactly how i feel, and explains exactly how I've felt for the past year and a half. I want to love singing again, but it's been really hard to overcome my anxiety and self doubt, and honestly i don't know when i will. I've never had a problem singing in front of people, but now all i do is shake and it's like the voice that is coming out isn't mine and i feel like i have no control. It's so hard to explain. So i know how you feel 100%! I forced myself to start up singing lessons last week, so I'm hoping that will make a difference. You're amazing, and hopefully we can do it together! :)
i've been following you from the beginning and anxiously await you uploading new videos..so sad that you fell out of love with something you are so talented at but i hope that someday you can find your way back to a place where you can enjoy it without feeling so anxious, just know that when that day comes we will all still be here supporting you!
I was so excited to see this on my dash!! Been here since the beginning and every cover you have ever posted has been just simply amazing! Prayers that you get everything figured out (I know you will) and cant wait for another cover whether its tomorrow...or 2 years from now!! love ya
I loved how you smiled while you were singing, it made it just that much more meaningful. it wasn't just a cover. I dunno, it looked like you were really into it, and I hope everything turns out the way you want it to.
I can't imagine the roller coaster ride that you've been on! You've been so strong through it all though, and sometimes it's just good to vent, because there are always ears willing to listen. So thank you for sharing a piece of your heart with us! I can somewhat relate to you and your music in comparison to me and my dancing. For me personally I realized that I love to dance and I will always continue to dance, but I acknowledged the fact that I don't truly want to dance for a profession, so I'm currently working my way towards becoming an optometrist, which is another crazy 8 years of schooling. 6 more years to go thankfully! But just because I'm striving to be an optometrist doesn't mean that I'm giving up on dance. Sure, I'd love to do more projects and put out more videos especially when their is a whole array of feelings and ideas within my head, but I just can't truly find the time to do so. So for now I'm just continuing to take a whole load of dance classes while I've been in school. So please don't delete your channel! It displays your amazing journey both the ups and downs. It is what makes you The Amy Colalella. I'd love to see a Draw My Life video of yours by the way! But yeah, sometimes taking a step back and dwelling in the silence can enable you to listen to your heart and every beat that it makes. Follow that beat and just do what makes you happy. And if you truly do want to be a music artist then go for it. I know for fact that I'll surely be in attendance at a concert if you ever tour. I hope you find the serenity to accept the things you cannot change; courage to change the things you can; and wisdom to know the difference. I always have and always will believe in you Amy! "Cause all that you are is all that [we]'ll ever need." Love&Hugs
I have been following your channel from the very beginning & your voice is so peaceful & uniquely beautiful... I have the same issues, where all my friends are almost done with college & I know I need to take classes, but I just can't let music go. I let it consume me & I go months or years between posting videos because I feel like people expect things out of me & I won't live up to it... In reality, we should just see music as a blessing & that god did give us gifts for a reason. Just let go & be happy, you deserve it. God bless
Amy you are a beautiful person in and out whether you have come to that conclusion YET. No one on this planet is perfect but we do the best we can we overcome our fears etc by just deciding to wake up and go on with our day. That is being strong in just one way. Following your dreams are not always easy...its always processing. Just dont give up on school and especially your schooling. We know you are not perfect but we think you deserve the best and deserve the support your fans are still giving you, youve been away to do you.. improve yourself. Everyone needs that. Just dont forget your fans will be here for you till the end. DONT FORGET THAT!
I WISH YOU UNDERSTOOD HOW INCREDIBLE YOU ARE. I've been watching you since the beginning. You've always been incredible and you always will be! I'll be praying you figure things out. Love you Amy ❤️
I've been a fan of yours since the Miley contest and have loved loved loved your covers to this day. Don't be too hard on yourself. YOU come first. RUclips can come second. Yes, we'd love to hear your beautiful and extremely talented voice more than just every four months but that isn't as important as bettering yourself is. Take your time, relax. Don't feel pressured to be your best, in our eyes you ARE the best. Let loose, we care and understand your situation. much love, xx
Girl, I will definitely keep you in my prayers! God gave you the gift of music and blessed you with an incredible talent and you should share it with the world because you are so talented. Honestly, I can't believe it's been four years because it literally seems like you were in that contest like yesterday. Yeesh. Anyway, it's always easy to say "forget about all those insecurities" and harder to actually do it, but I know one day you'll overcome it all. I've been a viewer for such a long time and I'm always excited to see updates from you no matter when they come! So just take your time and find your place. It'll happen :)
Oh Amy....it always makes my day when I see a new video from you in my feed, such an amazing talent =) P.S - if you ever have some free time again. You should another live stream =)
i've been watching your videos for years, since like freshman year high school and i'm a sophomore in college. i feel like i've grown with you and that's crazy. Anyway, love your vids!
I missed you! Welcome back :) People love you for you. You don't need to be hypercritical. It actually pretty much makes my day when I even just see your face. I'm pretty sure your other subscribers feel the same way too.
That made me smile, "It actually pretty much makes my day when I even just see your face." Dang. So much love. I just have to figure out how to not be hypercritical hahaha, easier said than done. Someday...... :) xo
Amy!!! I haven't checked on your channel in a few months and i missed 2 covers but i'm SO glad i did! This isn't even a day old yet!! I read the description and i'll be praying for you Amy! I've been here since at least 2010 and i'm not going anywhere(except i want to go on mission trips..)! Love you sista in Christ! Haha Thank you for everything in the past 4 years, you've inspired me so much and i hope you're doing well. God is good, all the time! Whenever you get around to uploading I'll be here!
I love you too!!! So so so so much!! Hahaha hopefully!! I want too go on missions trips so badly! I'm doing great! I hope you're doing well! (Did i say that in the 1st comment and say it again? oh well!) I have never been closer to God, and I have a boyfriend(Say what? Tell that to the girl watching your send it on cover back in the day! Haha i would've been shocked) who's only helping me grow closer to Him!
Absolutely wonderful job buddy! I'm sure you don't need anyone to tell you that hard times suck, because from what you said you've definitely been through some yourself. I can tell you, from what I've experienced, that it will get better someday. You might not know when it will, but until then you just need to keep going. Try to stay as positive as you can. Try to take the best out of things you come across. Keeping a positive attitude will help you throughout any day you need it. I hope for the best outcome for any obstacles you're facing or will face. Good Luck, Stay Positive!
Ahhh, I remember voting for you in the Miley World contest. I was determined to make sure you won instead of that blonde girl. Lol!! So many years ago... I'm 20 now and still haven't unsubbed from your channel just b/c your voice is refreshing. Hope you figure out things and keep your head up!! Best of luck.
Reading your description made me cry. You are so incredible. I only found you just tonight, but you know whats so crazy? As I was watching you sing your "Mistletoe/Merry Chrsitmas" cover....everytime I saw you smile I thought to myself "I totally see Jesus in her smile". It was incredible actually. I didnt even know you were Christian until I read your description and even at the beginning of reading this, I found myself starting to cry and heavily pray for you because I have gone through the same exact things these past years with my music. I cant watch any of my videos due to the amount of critiquing I do on myself but Gods working on that with me. But anyways. Just know that youre not alone when it comes to feeling like that at times. :) Also, you are INSANELY talented and gifted with you music. I pray with all of my heart that you can find your full joy in it again because you truly have a gift. I could listen to your beautiful voice all day. Its like an angel. So gentle yet so powerful. And just remember that especially when the enemy knows thats one of your HUGE gifts, hes gonna try his best to discourage and take that away. So be strong girlie :) And just trust God. He's got you and just like you said, Jesus put music in your heart....Hes not gonna let it go to waste ;) xoxo sending hugs!
You are beautiful and so amazing. You was given such a wonderful talent and if you want it embrace it keep your head high because I always look forward to your uploads. Your voice is pure perfection . Don't give up. :)
Amy, i really hope you see this. One, I was around duing the miley contest and even before that and have always adored your voice, so once again with this cover you've wowed me. But i dealt with something so similar with my music and I had such an issue coping with it. I really felt what you said here and i am so glad you are still posting. Your videos are, and always have been what inspires me to keep going. Thanks amy xo a longtime fan
Amy i know how hard it is as a singer to think that you arent good enough but i promise that you are. Because i am going through the same situation overthinking everything. You have 70,000 people that subbed to you because they enjoy you right? And there will always be more people that will find you enjoyable. Try to stay completely positive even though there will those roaming negative thoughts. You are great. So stop it lol. I wish the best💜
Aww, thanks for sharing with us that whole paragraph you wrote and the feelings you were trying to share! Oh and we would love to see a draw my life video from you! Maybe not so soon, but some day? ;D Lots of love from Singapore
Some day... hopefully, soon?! I seriously bought the board and markers for it months ago. So I'm halfway there. Hahaha. Lots of love from Pittsburgh back to Singapore... muah
So glad you're back Amy Stay with us this time. Read the comments, a lot of us think a lot of you.It's been a long wait but we'll forgive you. Believe in yourself Amy, a lot of us DO.
Please Don't doubt yourself Amy, Your voice is divine and you rock this cover! If you wan't to kill the negative emotions and doubts, start with the mirror (sounds rly dumb I know). Make faces at yourself, Dance to your favorite music, tell yourself out loud that you're awesome, stare that mirror image in the eye and show her who's boss, You are, you and your happiness is the only thing that truly mathers in your life Amy. Xo! love you!
w o W . seriously. thank you , so much. It doesn't sound dumb. It's brilliant. Because that mirror image is so much of where it starts. You're amazing.
Wow! Haven't seen a video from you in my subscription box in a while. Read the info bar and honestly, I doubt anyone could even fathom what has gone on in your life the past few years. While I have never done the RUclips music thing, I've always been a singer/songwriter/pianist and from high school that was what I was dead set on doing. It was the only thing I felt that I was passionate about. The drive and work ethic definitely wasn't there for me and I ended up going to community college to figure things out and transferring into an awesome education program and a good university. I'm finishing that up now and even though I find passion in teaching there is still something inside me that wonders if I'm doing the wrong thing or if I'm preventing myself from being happy by not taking other "riskier" avenues. That's how I feel like I relate to you - you don't ever want to feel like you're putting something that could make your life wonderful on the backburner. At the same time, if that passion or love isn't something you're willing to completely attack, then maybe looking into other options isn't so bad. I personally believe that it doesn't matter what stage you are at in your life, what age, what circumstances; when there is something you want to dedicate yourself to, you will make time for it. It could be a year from now or it could be five, ten years from now in the middle of a career that has nothing to do with music. I think it's awesome that you're taking classes because that feeling of not being able to negotiate what you really want to pursue is terrifying. Taking classes and getting started on a different path won't take away the option of music - it will give you options. I'm just a firm believer that when you want to make something happen, you'll work hard at it - but you have to want it. It's something I've struggled with in a lot of different ways. The important thing to remember is that "you are the master of your fate" - nothing will ever be gone or out of reach if you don't want it to be, and you might find that aside from music that in the future you'll find things that you love that'll surprise you. In that same breath I might turn on my TV and see you on The Voice someday. Ya simply never know. Sorry for the ramble but I was randomly inspired by how relatable everything you were saying was. Best of luck with everything and your voice is simply stunning. Dem runs doe.
THANK. YOU. Honestly I'm going through these comments very anxiously thinking, "oh no what if someone thinks I'm being petty or something for writing that description and with my feelings AHHhhhhh DDDD: ... " I always forget that things I'm going through, I'm not the only one. Even if I'm the only one in my group of friends ... on here is just a completely different place. You know exactly where I'm at and that is so BEYOND refreshing and means the world . Sometimes I think I'm afraid to find other passions, when in reality it would just keep me inspired all around instead of dull and drained. Ahhhhhh life. Seriously girl, thank you so much, and so so so much love to you
GURL. That description is so real. Related to it a little more than I wanted to. ha seriously though, you are so incredibly talented. I will be rooting for you and supporting you no matter what you end up doing. I really hope you find a way to make music a source of positivity in your life because I love your voice and your videos.

Love hearing that voice and seeing your smile while you sing. Brightens up my day.
I'm so glad : ) Thank you so much

Girl............ I love you, so much. Seriously. So. Much.
I've been a subscriber for so long, and you're my absolute favorite musician I follow.

been a subscriber since you were in hs and I still absolutely love your voice!
Seriously I can't believe how many years it's been. Thank you so much!!!

I really enjoyed this Amy! Thanks, so much for posting!
Can't stop listening to this, it's beautiful.
I came from your Even When it Hurts Cover and now I'm obsessed. YOU ARE AMAZING.
You don't post as often as some other musicians, but every time you do I just have to listen because I know I'll love it and I always do lol, like this one! Music is so complicated, I wish you luck on your break and your return to music :D!

I'm soo in love with your voice!!!!!
I love your voice but I especially love the fact that you take the time to interact with your viewers. Thank you, Ms. Colalella.
I found you on Instagram and you are amazing! Have you ever thought about putting yourself out there like doing the voice? Or something like that? you are truly gifted no joke
You're amazing! You're voice is flawless
This made me cry a little. I really love this.
You do you! I know what it's like to go through heavy stuff (I am right now) sometimes the things you love aren't the same as before. You've got a real talent, I'll support you with whatever you do. I've been subscribed for a while and I always will be!
It always makes me happy when I see you pop up on my channel.
Ever since your "Fireflies" cover ive been hooked. I always believed in your voice and was quite curious to what happened with the whole Miley thing but truth is you're better than that. You have raw talent and dont need to win a contest to feel like you're good enough. Your voice is lovely believe in yourself like we do :)
Dang..... I appreciate that more than you could ever know. Thank you thank you or hank you !! And to be honest, I myself don't even REALLY know what happened with Mileyworld! I was waiting and waiting and told it would happen and then all the sudden it was just, done. But still I'm trusting God that it was for good reason.... :)
Just the video I needed this night. You are always amazing and its always a pleasure to watch your awesome talents. You are truly amazing.
Awww man. Thank you so much, I really really really appreciate that : )
I've been subscribed to you forever, and reading your description to this video was like reading something i wrote. It's exactly how i feel, and explains exactly how I've felt for the past year and a half. I want to love singing again, but it's been really hard to overcome my anxiety and self doubt, and honestly i don't know when i will. I've never had a problem singing in front of people, but now all i do is shake and it's like the voice that is coming out isn't mine and i feel like i have no control. It's so hard to explain. So i know how you feel 100%! I forced myself to start up singing lessons last week, so I'm hoping that will make a difference. You're amazing, and hopefully we can do it together! :)
still obsessed with your version. on repeat 👌
My heart jumped when I saw this.
Thank you for making my day loads and loads better. Stay strong.
Love you..... Thank you so much darling :)
i've been following you from the beginning and anxiously await you uploading new videos..so sad that you fell out of love with something you are so talented at but i hope that someday you can find your way back to a place where you can enjoy it without feeling so anxious, just know that when that day comes we will all still be here supporting you!
This is amazing Amy!! I love your voice :)
thank you so very much!!! : )
wow wonderfull ... i love your voice !!!! you make my day ! ... everytime il feel sad i listen your voice and i feel better after
Beautiful cover! You did Ed justice :)
I was so excited to see this on my dash!! Been here since the beginning and every cover you have ever posted has been just simply amazing! Prayers that you get everything figured out (I know you will) and cant wait for another cover whether its tomorrow...or 2 years from now!! love ya
Awwwww girl. I love you so much. Always.
I love this version so much.
Thank you so much!! :)
It's been too long Amy, good to see and hear your amazing voice again :)
I know, it definitely has been. Thank you so very much :)
I loved how you smiled while you were singing, it made it just that much more meaningful. it wasn't just a cover. I dunno, it looked like you were really into it, and I hope everything turns out the way you want it to.
AMAZING! Love this song.
thank you!! : ) Ed is fantastic x
I can't imagine the roller coaster ride that you've been on! You've been so strong through it all though, and sometimes it's just good to vent, because there are always ears willing to listen. So thank you for sharing a piece of your heart with us! I can somewhat relate to you and your music in comparison to me and my dancing.
For me personally I realized that I love to dance and I will always continue to dance, but I acknowledged the fact that I don't truly want to dance for a profession, so I'm currently working my way towards becoming an optometrist, which is another crazy 8 years of schooling. 6 more years to go thankfully! But just because I'm striving to be an optometrist doesn't mean that I'm giving up on dance. Sure, I'd love to do more projects and put out more videos especially when their is a whole array of feelings and ideas within my head, but I just can't truly find the time to do so. So for now I'm just continuing to take a whole load of dance classes while I've been in school. So please don't delete your channel! It displays your amazing journey both the ups and downs. It is what makes you The Amy Colalella. I'd love to see a Draw My Life video of yours by the way! But yeah, sometimes taking a step back and dwelling in the silence can enable you to listen to your heart and every beat that it makes. Follow that beat and just do what makes you happy. And if you truly do want to be a music artist then go for it. I know for fact that I'll surely be in attendance at a concert if you ever tour.
I hope you find the serenity to accept the things you cannot change; courage to change the things you can; and wisdom to know the difference. I always have and always will believe in you Amy! "Cause all that you are is all that [we]'ll ever need." Love&Hugs
You are AMAZING! Every time you post a new video up, I get excited and squeal like a little girl lol. Love youuuu!
hahahah AWWWW girl I love ya
Flawless in every way
I have been following your channel from the very beginning & your voice is so peaceful & uniquely beautiful... I have the same issues, where all my friends are almost done with college & I know I need to take classes, but I just can't let music go. I let it consume me & I go months or years between posting videos because I feel like people expect things out of me & I won't live up to it... In reality, we should just see music as a blessing & that god did give us gifts for a reason. Just let go & be happy, you deserve it.
God bless
Amy you are a beautiful person in and out whether you have come to that conclusion YET. No one on this planet is perfect but we do the best we can we overcome our fears etc by just deciding to wake up and go on with our day. That is being strong in just one way. Following your dreams are not always easy...its always processing. Just dont give up on school and especially your schooling. We know you are not perfect but we think you deserve the best and deserve the support your fans are still giving you, youve been away to do you.. improve yourself. Everyone needs that. Just dont forget your fans will be here for you till the end. DONT FORGET THAT!
I WISH YOU UNDERSTOOD HOW INCREDIBLE YOU ARE. I've been watching you since the beginning. You've always been incredible and you always will be! I'll be praying you figure things out. Love you Amy ❤️
I missed you!:) post more! ^^
:)
beautiful!
Thank you soooo much for introducing me to this song!!! can not stop watching this video! very talented you are :) peace
you have such an amazing voice😍
Been missing your pretty face and beautiful voice! I love this song and this rendition!
I've been a fan of yours since the Miley contest and have loved loved loved your covers to this day. Don't be too hard on yourself. YOU come first. RUclips can come second. Yes, we'd love to hear your beautiful and extremely talented voice more than just every four months but that isn't as important as bettering yourself is. Take your time, relax. Don't feel pressured to be your best, in our eyes you ARE the best. Let loose, we care and understand your situation.
much love, xx
You're incredible. Amazing cover!
Thank you so very much!! :)
You have a beautiful voice
after hearing this, it became my favorite song
so gorgeoussssss. no matter what you decide in the future I know you'll do great! We love you on here!
I love you so much :)
Head over Heels In Love With Your Voice!!! Dont Listen To The Bad Voices, Cause Your Amazing Amy ^.^
Girl, I will definitely keep you in my prayers! God gave you the gift of music and blessed you with an incredible talent and you should share it with the world because you are so talented. Honestly, I can't believe it's been four years because it literally seems like you were in that contest like yesterday. Yeesh. Anyway, it's always easy to say "forget about all those insecurities" and harder to actually do it, but I know one day you'll overcome it all. I've been a viewer for such a long time and I'm always excited to see updates from you no matter when they come! So just take your time and find your place. It'll happen :)
Also this cover is so beautiful! I think one of my favorites that you've ever done!
Oh Amy....it always makes my day when I see a new video from you in my feed, such an amazing talent =) P.S - if you ever have some free time again. You should another live stream =)
Omg so beautiful Amy! 💜
I missed this one!
i've been watching your videos for years, since like freshman year high school and i'm a sophomore in college. i feel like i've grown with you and that's crazy. Anyway, love your vids!
read through the comments. Haven't seen any hate. Love you in everything that you do
amazing!
honestly you deserve 293893894204803280 views. you have an AMAZING voice and killer guitar skills..
I love your music! ❤️
aww thank you!!! : )
keep smile on your face amy..
I missed you! Welcome back :)
People love you for you. You don't need to be hypercritical. It actually pretty much makes my day when I even just see your face. I'm pretty sure your other subscribers feel the same way too.
That made me smile, "It actually pretty much makes my day when I even just see your face." Dang. So much love. I just have to figure out how to not be hypercritical hahaha, easier said than done. Someday...... :) xo
Amy!!! I haven't checked on your channel in a few months and i missed 2 covers but i'm SO glad i did! This isn't even a day old yet!! I read the description and i'll be praying for you Amy! I've been here since at least 2010 and i'm not going anywhere(except i want to go on mission trips..)! Love you sista in Christ! Haha Thank you for everything in the past 4 years, you've inspired me so much and i hope you're doing well. God is good, all the time! Whenever you get around to uploading I'll be here!
hahaha you're not going anywhere but mission trips, YES!! God IS good, all the time. Love you so so so much girl, I hope you're doing well
I love you too!!! So so so so much!! Hahaha hopefully!! I want too go on missions trips so badly! I'm doing great! I hope you're doing well! (Did i say that in the 1st comment and say it again? oh well!) I have never been closer to God, and I have a boyfriend(Say what? Tell that to the girl watching your send it on cover back in the day! Haha i would've been shocked) who's only helping me grow closer to Him!
Absolutely wonderful job buddy! I'm sure you don't need anyone to tell you that hard times suck, because from what you said you've definitely been through some yourself. I can tell you, from what I've experienced, that it will get better someday. You might not know when it will, but until then you just need to keep going. Try to stay as positive as you can. Try to take the best out of things you come across. Keeping a positive attitude will help you throughout any day you need it. I hope for the best outcome for any obstacles you're facing or will face. Good Luck, Stay Positive!
If only I could favorite comments........... Thank you so much for your words. Seriously means more than you know. Love love love love on love
Amy Colalella Any time buddy!
Don't quit doing what you do! You are amazing at what you do! Follow your heart and dreams!
Ahhh, I remember voting for you in the Miley World contest. I was determined to make sure you won instead of that blonde girl. Lol!! So many years ago... I'm 20 now and still haven't unsubbed from your channel just b/c your voice is refreshing.
Hope you figure out things and keep your head up!! Best of luck.
You're a amazing! You're voice is just incredible! Hope you begin believing in you because I do 😘😘😍😍
I cannot believe you're at all insecure. Your voice is perfection. Never flat and always hitting the notes
you're the best Amy!
Ah this is amazing :D
Reading your description made me cry. You are so incredible. I only found you just tonight, but you know whats so crazy? As I was watching you sing your "Mistletoe/Merry Chrsitmas" cover....everytime I saw you smile I thought to myself "I totally see Jesus in her smile". It was incredible actually. I didnt even know you were Christian until I read your description and even at the beginning of reading this, I found myself starting to cry and heavily pray for you because I have gone through the same exact things these past years with my music. I cant watch any of my videos due to the amount of critiquing I do on myself but Gods working on that with me. But anyways. Just know that youre not alone when it comes to feeling like that at times. :) Also, you are INSANELY talented and gifted with you music. I pray with all of my heart that you can find your full joy in it again because you truly have a gift. I could listen to your beautiful voice all day. Its like an angel. So gentle yet so powerful. And just remember that especially when the enemy knows thats one of your HUGE gifts, hes gonna try his best to discourage and take that away. So be strong girlie :) And just trust God. He's got you and just like you said, Jesus put music in your heart....Hes not gonna let it go to waste ;) xoxo sending hugs!
You are beautiful and so amazing. You was given such a wonderful talent and if you want it embrace it keep your head high because I always look forward to your uploads. Your voice is pure perfection . Don't give up. :)
Loved it as soon as you started to sing, keep it :)
awww thank you girl :)
Yay Amy back
:)
Amy Colalella we missed you on twitter as well
Amy, i really hope you see this. One, I was around duing the miley contest and even before that and have always adored your voice, so once again with this cover you've wowed me. But i dealt with something so similar with my music and I had such an issue coping with it. I really felt what you said here and i am so glad you are still posting. Your videos are, and always have been what inspires me to keep going. Thanks amy
xo a longtime fan
Amy i know how hard it is as a singer to think that you arent good enough but i promise that you are. Because i am going through the same situation overthinking everything. You have 70,000 people that subbed to you because they enjoy you right? And there will always be more people that will find you enjoyable. Try to stay completely positive even though there will those roaming negative thoughts. You are great. So stop it lol. I wish the best💜
Hahaha, "So stop it lol." Ahhhhhh SO much love. Thank you from the bottom of my heart
Agh so good so good!!! Subscribed after like 2 seconds
This cover is amazing, as always. :-)
aahhhhhh thank you so very much : )
Amy Colalella you're welcome, I've missed seeing your videos :-)
Still amazing as ever, so I'm still coming back :)
Good luck Amy !
Thank you : )
Aww, thanks for sharing with us that whole paragraph you wrote and the feelings you were trying to share! Oh and we would love to see a draw my life video from you! Maybe not so soon, but some day? ;D Lots of love from Singapore
Some day... hopefully, soon?! I seriously bought the board and markers for it months ago. So I'm halfway there. Hahaha. Lots of love from Pittsburgh back to Singapore... muah
So glad you're back Amy Stay with us this time. Read the comments, a lot of us think a lot of you.It's been a long wait but we'll forgive you. Believe in yourself Amy, a lot of us DO.
.... made my heart smile. Thank you thank you....
Please Don't doubt yourself Amy, Your voice is divine and you rock this cover! If you wan't to kill the negative emotions and doubts, start with the mirror (sounds rly dumb I know). Make faces at yourself, Dance to your favorite music, tell yourself out loud that you're awesome, stare that mirror image in the eye and show her who's boss, You are, you and your happiness is the only thing that truly mathers in your life Amy.
Xo! love you!
w o W . seriously. thank you , so much. It doesn't sound dumb. It's brilliant. Because that mirror image is so much of where it starts. You're amazing.
Wow! Haven't seen a video from you in my subscription box in a while. Read the info bar and honestly, I doubt anyone could even fathom what has gone on in your life the past few years. While I have never done the RUclips music thing, I've always been a singer/songwriter/pianist and from high school that was what I was dead set on doing. It was the only thing I felt that I was passionate about. The drive and work ethic definitely wasn't there for me and I ended up going to community college to figure things out and transferring into an awesome education program and a good university. I'm finishing that up now and even though I find passion in teaching there is still something inside me that wonders if I'm doing the wrong thing or if I'm preventing myself from being happy by not taking other "riskier" avenues. That's how I feel like I relate to you - you don't ever want to feel like you're putting something that could make your life wonderful on the backburner. At the same time, if that passion or love isn't something you're willing to completely attack, then maybe looking into other options isn't so bad. I personally believe that it doesn't matter what stage you are at in your life, what age, what circumstances; when there is something you want to dedicate yourself to, you will make time for it. It could be a year from now or it could be five, ten years from now in the middle of a career that has nothing to do with music. I think it's awesome that you're taking classes because that feeling of not being able to negotiate what you really want to pursue is terrifying. Taking classes and getting started on a different path won't take away the option of music - it will give you options. I'm just a firm believer that when you want to make something happen, you'll work hard at it - but you have to want it. It's something I've struggled with in a lot of different ways. The important thing to remember is that "you are the master of your fate" - nothing will ever be gone or out of reach if you don't want it to be, and you might find that aside from music that in the future you'll find things that you love that'll surprise you. In that same breath I might turn on my TV and see you on The Voice someday. Ya simply never know. Sorry for the ramble but I was randomly inspired by how relatable everything you were saying was. Best of luck with everything and your voice is simply stunning. Dem runs doe.
THANK. YOU. Honestly I'm going through these comments very anxiously thinking, "oh no what if someone thinks I'm being petty or something for writing that description and with my feelings AHHhhhhh DDDD: ... " I always forget that things I'm going through, I'm not the only one. Even if I'm the only one in my group of friends ... on here is just a completely different place. You know exactly where I'm at and that is so BEYOND refreshing and means the world . Sometimes I think I'm afraid to find other passions, when in reality it would just keep me inspired all around instead of dull and drained. Ahhhhhh life. Seriously girl, thank you so much, and so so so much love to you
