Cover Star: Harriet Sings Fantasia’s ‘I’m Here’

Published: Saturday 8th Jan 2011 by Sam

This week’s That Grape Juice Cover Star is Harriet. The Timmonsville, SC singer serves up a rousing rendition of Fantasia‘s (version of) Color Purple ballad ‘I’m Here’.

Check it out below:

Impassioned, controlled, and generally a solid showing, Harriet certainly held her own with this demanding number. Great performance.

    Too much head voice not enough powerful belting. Nice control though.

    Harriet u go gal!!! Sound better than the no-talents dominating the music industry! #Shame

    She was alright… Could use more voice control. I give her a 3

    6/10

    She doesn’t have the vocal power to carry a song like this size.

    Delightful! It’s a lot to take on when you attempt to pull off a song this big. I’ve seen Fantasia do it live in “The Color Purple”, she will give you chills. Harriet’s rendition was pretty solid overall. I like her passion, especially when she’s belting out more. She does have a lot of control, she should work on her lower register. That would really make her more of a well rounded vocalist. Still, that’s just nitpicking. She was very good! I’d give her a B+!

    That was god-awful… Yikes!!! Thank god there are noise cancellation head fones. That was atrocious. I give her 1/5 for the singing and another /5 for having the guts to embarrass herself. Total = 2/5 stars.

    DIDNT EVEN LISTEN TO HER SING THE SONG MAYBE ANOTHER DAY BUT FANTASIA SANG IT WELL LOVE THE SONG AND THE LYRICS

    This goes back to my original point – How DARE you constantly blast Rihanna for her lack of vocal prowess when the people you DO post and give praise to are often a step below average at best.

    Really? I’ve yet to hear one youtube artist you’ve pushed actually be great. Some are decent, some are average, most are below average and with that said, how dare you give an opinion on another artist when you clearly wouldn’t know singing if it slapped you in the face.
