An emotional version of a 2010 hit song.
“Love The Way You Lie” was listed as one of the best tracks of 2010.
The song is from Eminem’s seventh studio album Recovery, and Rihanna’s vocals only added to its appeal. Even so, the lyrics can be interpreted in many ways since love-hate relationships are not uncommon.
If you ever wondered how the song would sound if someone delivered it as a ballad, this is the perfect answer to that.
Skylar’s angelic voice gives the song a completely different tone, you can hear a whole new emotion. She paints the picture of the pain and agony of a toxic relationship perfectly.
The video has Skylar dressed in a beautiful white gown, and singing in a heavenly voice.
Skylar’s simple performance attracted 20 million YouTube views.
In the video, all she does is sit at the piano and sing. Even so, she brings all kinds of soul to the song. If you haven’t checked out Grey’s work so far, this video will definitely inspire you to do so, and you’ll end up going down a rabbit hole.
