00:00 [laughing]
00:02 Oh my God.
00:03 [laughing]
00:04 That's awesome.
00:05 I know I didn't just see that.
00:06 Hi, Glamour.
00:07 I'm Mary J. Blige, and you sang my song.
00:09 [music playing]
00:10 (SINGING) My life's just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine.
00:14 Woo!
00:15 [clapping]
00:16 (SINGING) Yeah, I like what I see when I'm looking at me.
00:18 When I'm walking past that mirror,
00:19 can't stress through the night.
00:21 Got the time of my life, ain't worrying about your feelings.
00:23 Got my head on tight.
00:24 I got my mind right.
00:26 Ain't gonna let you kill it.
00:28 I would change my life, my life just fine.
00:34 Faye made the song her own.
00:36 Her vocals are amazing.
00:38 She's deconstructed the song.
00:40 She put different words.
00:41 She put verses where they didn't belong.
00:43 But she sound-- she sound great.
00:45 She got a nice voice.
00:47 She's very animated.
00:48 That made me feel so great and amazing
00:52 because I don't like to sound like the actual artist
00:55 for the most part when I sing the song.
00:57 So when she comes in and she noticed that, like,
00:59 I sing her song differently, but because it's her own song,
01:02 of course she would notice it.
01:05 I was actually excited because I'm like, oh, yeah, like,
01:07 I switched it up a little bit just for you, girl.
01:10 She has a voice.
01:11 And yeah, she just made it her own, period.
01:15 Mary, I'm a big fan.
01:17 And I do want to say thank you for watching it.
01:20 I love you.
01:21 I respect you.
01:22 And, you know, I just hope that one day, you know,
01:25 we'll collab.
01:27 [laughs]
01:28 [music - "good morning gorgeous"]
01:29 I wake up every morning and tell myself--
01:32 good morning, gorgeous.
01:34 Sometimes you gotta look in the mirror and say--
01:37 good morning, gorgeous.
01:40 No one else can make me feel this way.
01:43 Good morning, gorgeous.
01:45 Good morning.
01:47 Gorgeous.
01:47 Hey.
01:49 I love how every artist, when they have amazing vocals,
01:56 are making it their own.
01:57 Dawn made it her own.
01:59 She added her own twist, her own riffs.
02:02 And she killed it.
02:04 It's beautiful.
02:05 That was real, right?
02:06 Like, I can't--
02:08 I'm so emotional, I can't even, you know,
02:10 fangirl the way that I'd like to.
02:13 Thank you so much for even watching the video.
02:17 [music - "good morning gorgeous"]
02:20 I can't keep doubting myself now.
02:25 If I wanted to be someone, I should learn to settle down.
02:30 You should know I tell myself I don't love myself.
02:37 That's great.
02:38 Wow, and then she watched it.
02:42 Dakota Riley, she just did it her way.
02:45 And that's the credit I have to give everybody.
02:47 She just sang the song the way she would sing it,
02:51 from how she would sing it.
02:53 I can't hate on it.
02:55 It's-- she did it the way she would do it.
02:58 I'm speechless.
03:00 I mean, I obviously look up to her.
03:02 Like, she's an icon.
03:04 And I think she must have been going through a very similar
03:07 thing to cut that song.
03:09 I know the place that she must have been in.
03:11 Huge fan.
03:12 I can't believe she saw it.
03:13 That's great.
03:14 Thank you to all the cover artists that covered my songs.
03:17 You did great.
03:18 You made it your own.
03:20 You win.
03:20 See you next time.
03:22 Thank you, Glamour.
