The clip takes the viewer into every breath Halle takes, singing her heart out, thoroughly hitting those high notes and riffs with breathtaking ease. Her caption read, ābeen obsessed with watching covers to dakotas version so i did my ownā šāØ ā yet, it was anything but simple. The comments immediately flooded with appreciation and admiration.
One commenter said quite satisfactorily, expressing what many were feeling: āthe high notes, the riffs, the beauty, the everything! youāre so amazing in everything šā Similar feelings were echoed throughout the comment section, with another fan commenting: āYour voice is straight from heaven. š„°šā
The great successes of the cover also brought some comic responses: āare you luring me into the ocean? š§šæāļøā ā a neat nod to Halleās role as Ariel in the live-action Disney āThe Little Mermaid.ā Another fan continued the joke, stating, āyouāre an irl š§š¾āļøsirenš§š¾āļø, ms @hallebailey if ya nasty.ā
One of the viewers got so hooked that they described the video as being ā5 hours longā (a slang phrase meaning that the video is so amazing you watch it all the time). When another viewer asked what this meant, a few fans responded saying, āIt means I watched the video over and over because itās so good.ā
An additional introduction to many of the song came through the cover while one inquisitive fan said: āHey does anyone know the name and artist who sing the original. I love this. But never heard it before.ā Several others confirmed that it was a cover of Coldplayās āSparksā, though most declared that Halleās version was way better than the original, one instructing: āI just went to listen & it didnāt hit the same at all. Just replay this one š¤.ā
In the middle of all this praise were two impassioned requests: one implored, āCan we get a full cover on YouTube @hallebailey š„š„š„,ā while the other imagined a collaboration: āSong to coverā¦You and Chloe together on this would be great!ā
The outpour of goodwill toward Halleās musical snap was such an uplift: āthe reset I needed for my day.ā Then it went ahead to dub her āvoice of a generation.ā Another comment seems to sum up the sentiment of the majority: āThis was the best thing that couldāve popped up first on my timeline.ā
