very personal, natural, grounded. She has that high Country twang with good use of dynamics. Def knows how to tell a story. This pulled me all the way in. Great songwriting
Legend Robert ! Years have passed and your legend has been built over years of dedicated patience with comments community in a way genuinely that touched and inspired : as a proof that time well directed exposes some of the qualities as human truth and wins in all at the end. Thank you 🙏
I’d be 100% ok with hearing this song on country radio right now!
She is legit country. The writing, the voice...she has Dollyesqe characteristics to her writing and singing for sure too. Update...I literally wrote this comment before I heard what Mr. Richies said about Dolly.
This is now my MOTHER/DAUGHTER dance song for my daughter’s wedding in July. Thank you Aniston for this very special memory (to come). ❤❤
Love everything about this girl, her momma, and that song...the lyrics, the melody, the voice. Beautiful. Beautiful. Beautiful.
I’m with Luke on the extra “my”. I was already singing my into that part. Absolutely 💯 love 💗 the song and her voice.
Her voice is hypnotic.
Her articulation is really good. Important when you're telling a story ❤
True country writing, authentic, liked her honest delivery
OK i need a new box of tissues! My mom sang and is now 81 and I miss it so much! Great song! Great voice great country star!
What a likeable and real young lady. That guitar tone is killer
Can’t wait to hear this on the radio.
Holy cow!!! What a unique voice - so special and the closest to a dolly like voice I’ve ever heard. The competition this year is crazy.
We need an official video immediately.....❤❤❤❤❤ Luke you know what to do 😊.
I would buy her album right now!! What a gift you have Aniston!! The world is your oyster!! GO AND GET IT!! Cheers, from Country Victoria, Australia 🇦🇺 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
How do you compare this season of American idol to Oz idol jo? Talent wise ...
@@willieallen1034 If I’m completely honest, American Idol is so much better!! I watch it every year. But Shhhhhhh, you didn’t hear that from me. 😆
I've been saying that on the Australian idol page lol I highly doubt that most of the current crop on the Oz show won't make it past the audition stage of the American version , they certainly wouldn't of given Isaac a million chances to remember the lyrics
Thank you my baby girl.❤
Brought me to tears. She is fantastic. Completely genuine and beautifully raw. Whatever happens don't change or let this industry shape you. You have 100% pure unfiltered talent.
Wow! very beautiful song for your mother.
This girl is great. She has a sweet-sounding voice. I like her. I hope she goes far.
Now that’s a very sweet song. 👏👏👏👏
Getting a Deana Carter vibe from her on this song, and 💯 agree with Luke, I was already singing it in my head with the My momma in it by the end.
What is going on?! All this talent!!!! The song was well written and sung beautifully. There’s so much to be proud of here. I hope this moment propels you into the future!
Her tone is really pretty! Loved the country sound and the song. Great songwriting as well. She really does sound like a young Dolly Parton. Carly Pearce also has a song called Hummingbird.
I like her, very good singer and I love that she sang, a story being told there! I think she’ll do well
Goosebumps all over. Pure, gorgeous talent.
Definitely heard some Dolly in there as well. I’m glad Lionel confirmed it. 😂❤
Wow!!! She has pure talent! Beautiful beautiful song and beautiful beautiful voice!
Has anyone else noticed that the most talented people on this show, for the last few years, have been country music singers?
what a sweet soul ❤
She's from my hometown and I went to school with her!
Lucky mama ❤
What a beautiful song! Wow! Aniston's voice was also beautiful. Love her tone, timbre, and the freshness in her voice.
It takes coming from Texas to rhyme "minute" with "getting!"
Beautiful lyrics. 😢 thinking of my mommy R.I.P.
This girl is so cute when she smiles...
She has a beautiful voice and such a relatable song !!!!! I hope she goes far ! Good luck
All day.......I could listen to a singer like her all day.
Beautiful tribute to her mom…absolutely love her!!!😊
Very beautiful song for mother and daughter you can see the judges faces and how they were moved by this young lady ❤💯💯💯🫶🫶🫶
Love her song. I felt that. 😊
Absolutely in love with this song and her style
Please record that song I would buy it in a heartbeat. We have always called my mom hummingbird because she’s always humming and those lyrics described her to a T
What a singer and a song writer. So beautiful to listen to
This was a master class in song writing what makes you feel something deep inside that is relatable to others when heard ...I was whisked away to time spent with my mom listening to good old country music ...and this girl can sing with the best of them as well...good luck on your Idol journey Aniston.....Karl from eastern Canada
That first line reeled me in
There are a lot of talented singers in the states but any time it's someone from Texas, I get super excited! She sang a beautiful original song about her mom and slam dunk! It was done!
Aniston you have a voice of an angel 🌹
I cried. Gorgeous!
This girl is Grammy ready
She from my home town love Dalhart Texas it's a small town it's the best place to grow up there I'm raising my son here
Grew up in Dalhart wish my kiddos would have gotten the chance to grow up there to but we moved 1200 miles away lol
She has a sweet voice, I love her. She looks like a young Meryl Streep.
Holy crap that is a hit period!,,,
Start @1:04
I ❤ her mom just because she ❤ her mom.
I ♥️ you too
Wow, that gave me chills.
This song had me in tears. I have so many of these exact memories with my mother.
omg i cried thru this whole song
Best audition so far. Great original song. No overly emotional set up too.
I love this song from the start - beautiful word pictures she created.
Love too see what she can do😊
This is a hit song. Wow!
A beautiful song and she has talent and can sing . ❤
I love this song she’s great
Love this song
I like the way she sang. Great song, writing and delivery.
She needs to record and release this song. Fantastic!
Ok that made me cry! I’d buy this song… I mean, it has potential to be a MASSIVE hit and he voice is beautiful! I do hope she gets all the way through!
She wins
My mumma never gave up on me even though i put her through hell. She beat stage 4 breast cancer 2 years ago. Ive always said "my mumma is stronger than any man i know" she proves that daily. Im sorry for all the heart ache i put her through but im so thankful she never gave up on her baby girl. I love you forever mumma, im so proud of you & i couldnt be happier to be your baby girl 💓
Heard some Miranda lambert in there. As long as she stays original and keeps them sounding country she will do great!
Reminds me of a little Leanne Womack and Dolly Mixed together. Loved it!!
Wonderful song writer. Voice is okay. Her real talent is in her writing.
I got goosebumps!!! A beautiful song!!!
I wish my daughter felt this way about me. She does not appreciate me at all. I do everything all the time. I willingly give my heart, my life & my time to this child. If Daddy gets her Starbuck’s one time tho, he is suddenly a hero to her & her friends. Makes me sad sometimes.🙏💪
Stop doing so much for her and see what the outcome for each of you is. Most often, reverse Psychology still works, this day and age. Best of luck to you 👍
Seems like it's all about you and you hold resentments towards the dad. Maybe change your parenting tactics
I love this song!!!
I love the song. Great singer.
All yall need to google drowing in a drought....she wrote it also...sooo good.
That song! Omg!!🎵 🎶 ❤
This is a beautiful song!
Wow wow wow SUCH a beautiful voice and song!! ❤
Shesss good one of the best this season
Hope she does well. Very humble
Might be my favorite so far
tears , it's a good song
Katy Perry has the most beautiful eyes 😍
I want to stream this song so bad
Idk why but I kinda hear burn it down by Parker McCollum in it “Mama my humminbird “Burn it, burn it down” That’s just me I’m not good at this 😂
that’s a beautiful song
she's special...
Wow what great lyrics!!!
💜💜💜💜 i would buy that song!
I can't believe he said what I was thinking. She sounds like Dolly. I thought it from the first line!
Luke Bryant with the IV hope he feels better soon. 😊
She was awesome! Mixed of Miranda Lambert and Dolly.👍
Good song Sweet song
Absolutely beautiful song et also a unique voice. It will be nice to see her progression, 💕💕💗💗🌸🌸
She reminds me of Dolly Parton ❤
