Last night Katelyn Epperly sang "The Scientist" by my beloved Coldplay.
obviously, nobody can sing like Chris Martin but the power in this song is emotion. And for that, i thought it was a sweet version.
Simon asked at the end if she had ever heard Natasha Bedingfield's version. I have, thanks to Gabby. When I heard Natasha Bedingfield's version I loved it simply for the emotion... especially at the end. When she sings "take me back"... it's like she's pleading.

I LOVE that song. From the very first time I heard it (I can remember exactly where I was and what I was doing), I fell in love. I just can't get enough, so I can't wait to watch the girls perform on American Idol so I can see this! (It's in the DVR and we haven't watched it yet.)
I just love Coldplay, and I couldn't agree more about this song. All of these are lovely versions. I would die to be able to see them perform live.

I heard it last night on AI and I thought it was beautiful! I hadn't really been of fan of hers until then... I actually kinda like her now :)

This version is wonderful. I was a bit skeptical at first -- it's true, no one else has Chris Martin's voice, but I like it. Checking out Natasha's version now...

i LOVE that version of natasha bedingfield! thank you for sharing! i love her voice. it took me a long time the first time i ever knew about her to like her music. but i really like her style now that she's been out in the public for years now. love her voice. :)
ill never get past the emotional pull of that song.
and natasha is probably the only other person I cant listen to sing it . (there's so much honesty in version)
anyway, you made my bitter sweet friday a little more bitter sweet =)

The Scientist is one of my favorite songs of all time ever.
It's so sad, I haven't watched one episode of AI this season!
That song is just powerful.
