Hey guys! I usually never sing, but I figured I share this with you guys. It's footage from my voice class at college. I'm a beginner at singing, but hope you guys enjoy!

Good delivery, Casey! If you're are new to vocal, you have plenty there already which is well worth developing further. Keep it coming.
Best wishes, Billsie

Very, very well done. Great voice and a very expressive performance. One of the very best covers I have heard, and I have heard a lot.

Have a listen to Leonard Cohen's version if you can. Almost no-one does a cover of his original version. He sings the "hallelujah" (praise the Lord) bit higher and louder than the verse. See what you think.

Very nice job, Casey. The uke playing was a great addition to the singing.

Dood. At first I thought "another Hallelujah cover?". But... That was VERY nice. Nicely played. Nicely sung.

Nice. My ukulele club used to play that as fast as we could, it was pretty fun.

That was fabulous! You're a much better singer than I, and that was a great rendition of the song.

wow, thanks so much guys. I had no idea this video would get so much positive feedback! I've always loved to sing, but I never thought I was any good so I decided to take a class on it. I guess I've improved since the beginning of the semester haha But I'm gonna start doing more vocal covers, so i'll definitely keep you guys posted. Again, thanks for the positive feedback! really does mean a lot.
