My mum wants me to sing more English songs T_T;;
So I tried this song by Paula DeAnda. Quite a challenge I must say. All of the tracks I had to sing/add into it o_o...
So anyways, here's my attempt. Hope you like!

I don't think my mixing was that good and maybe the ending of the song was kinda messy. xD;;

Not bad. Some of the notes were a little pitchy, but that can be fixed with practice. Overall it was very nice. I like your voice. :)

Rayna. I have to say, we have like, the same taste in music *__*...
XD... I love this song.
Anyway! Critique! :D
Critiquing as I listen, so if things are spontaneous suddenly or like, I contradict myself, sorry. XD;;
The echoes on the "me" sounded kind of awkward, but I know that the mixing was probably hard (This song has like, scary-good mixing XD...) You did a nice job with the higher part by the way! :D
(Here I'd like to note how high Paula DeAnda's voice is...) Because~... Your voice is much lower :O... But that was cool too *__*... I think your voice fits this song nicely. :)... Something I noticed was that you slurred through some of your words? Although I guess Paula did the same thing. XD
As Jellybean said, you went off pitch at a few parts, some of it was a result of sliding, which I heard a lot of in this. So basically, just watch that you don't slide that often, because it can sound kind of messy. :X..
The last thing I'll note~! I thought you could use just a little bit more emotion in this song. I can't really explain the kind of emotion, XD;;... But maybe just some more character in the song as whole. :3... If that makes sense. XD;;....
:D I really liked this though! Awesome job! <33
P.S. Your Himawari? = <3333333333333
P.P.S. :X... Would you mind sending me the karaoke of this song? XD;;

Yeah, the mixing killed me xD But it was fun all the same. So Melly, you like this song too? :D
I agree, my voice is lower than Paula Deanda's. But I like my voice like that haha. I think Paula also slurs the words. If I didn't slur, it would sound weird. o_O;; In my opinion, anyway.
By the way, I never understood what sliding was. D; So, could you tell me what it is exactly? Then maybe I'll be able to correct it :] And the emotion... I agree that I also need more emotion. But I didn't really know what emotion to bring out. Like, sad? Or confused? @@;;
Oh, you listened to Himawari? xD I really wanted to sing the song with you though lol. And yeah sure. I'll send it to you. :)
Thanks <33

Yeah, I liked it too with your voice. I always thought her voice sounded too like... 10-year-oldish but then it's not...? XD;... I don't know. >__>;; Lately most girl singers have been like, "8D I'm really 20, but I sound like I'm 8!"
XD... Probably all the digital-fixing :X... SHHHH.
I think she does slur the words a little, so nevermind what I said earlier. 8D... XD;
Anyway! Sliding is like... When you're going from one note to the other, instead of hitting the note straight on, you kind of like... Go through a few others before you hit the new note? Like you slide up there? I don't know how to explain it XD;... Hmm... You know like one of those whistles that like, slides up and down? (LOL. This? http://youtube.com/watch?v=9QdV_hikZh0 )
>.>... Kind of like that I guess. Except you don't sound anything like that, of course. Hahaha. XD
Honestly I have no idea either. .__.;; I guess like... Confused would work best? Sad and confused? :O... XD I have no idea. Hahaha.
:D Yes, I did listen to Himawari~!
D: I wanted to do it too~! But I wasn't sure if you still wanted to do it, and I haven't seen you around much :X... I'm still up to doing that if you want to, XD... Perhaps we could do the whole song? :O...
<33 You're very welcome. X3

Oh! Yeah, now I get it. Yeah, I tend to do that a lot :X I'll try to get that fixed.
Yeah I haven't been around much, but I check the VAA often. I'm just... not as active. But I haven't disappeared or anything xD If you're up to it, I am :) -hasstillgotthelyrics- Haha.

yeah... if u like paula deanda , u really should check out some of the recent dance hits from Europe....
it's pretty clear that dance music is coming back in the USA ... and around the world... hip-hop and r&b are finally dying out.....
everyone knows that the hottest dance tracks come from the euros.....check this compilation series on itunes... it's the "Euro Club Hits" series... for example..... extremely good stuff -- here's the direct itunes link:
