Another one of our favourite singers on YouTube is Lizz Robinett. She sings a mixture of covers in English and Japanese, as well as some songs of her own. Almost all of her lyrics are original and very carefully written. Her gentle voice complements backing piano music really well!
Here are five of her best English covers:
Here are five of her best English covers:
5) Lost in thoughts all alone
I'm sure you’ll have come across at least one cover of this song from the new Fire Emblem game by now. However, Lizz once again puts her own stamp on the piece, bringing out the best in it with a more delicate tone. She's also uploaded a Japanese cover of the same song.
4) Rockbell
The kitten is so cute! And Lizz's voice captures all of the emotions and adorableness awesomely.
3) Ikanaide
Every time I come across a new cover of this song, it makes me so happy! Lizz and Juby’s are easily the best but they're very different. This version is a beautiful acoustic cover coupled with evocative lyrics.
2) Answer
A sequel of sorts to the well known song ‘Just Be Friends’, Answer holds its own whilst evoking memories of the original piece. Lizz's english cover is thoughtful and optimistic, tinged with hints of sadness and hope.
1) Irony
A nostalgic one for me; this is one of the first of Lizz’s songs I heard and fell in love with. Whilst the lyrics are a bit sad, the song has such a nice rhythm and tune that it's impossible not to sing along.
