Esmée recently announced she was planning on doing a cover of “It Will Rain” by Bruno Mars. She just uploaded the cover on her youtube channel a few hour ago and it’s awsome! Be sure to watch the cover below, and comment on youtube to let Esmée know what you think! You can download the converted file to add to your ipod/mp3 over here.

What do you think of the cover? We really love it, it’s great Ben Cullum is playing the keys again and it makes me more excited for “Screaming Out Loud“!

Esmée uploaded a brand new video of her covering “Without You” by David Guetta and Usher. She already gave us a preview last Friday. The cover will also be on her upcoming second album “Screaming Out Loud“. We love her rendition of the cover, is shows her vocal ability and her musicality. You can download the mp3 file of the cover over here.

Stay tuned for the screen captures, we will upload those as soon as possible. Happy Halloween everyone, hope you’ll have a fun day or had a fun weekend!

Esmée made her own tribute to the late Amy Winehouse. She made a cover of her song “Tears dry on their own“. We think the payed an amazing tribute to Amy! And it’s good to see she is still making covers. You can check out the cover below and be sure to “Like” the cover at her youtube page.

We want to apologize for the lack of updates, there isn’t much to update you guys on and I have to admit my motivation was a bit gone and my personal life kept me quite busy. We recently ordered a brand new theme and we want to put it online in the next week(s).

Update: We added the screencaptures of the video in our gallery, Esmée looked stunning wearing a cute head band. We also converted the file into a audio file so you can add the cover to your ipod/mp3. Be sure to download the file over here.

Today (August 25th) is an important day for Esmée and for us because 5 years ago on this day she posted her very first youtube cover with her sister’s webcam. Like every year (2010, 2009) we like to celebrate it with a special update.

We are so happy and proud we are following Esmée since her very first videos and we can not believe it’s been 5 years already. Esmée came a far way: posting covers at youtube, being discovered by Justin Timberlake and she was the first artist who signed to his label Tenmann Records, appearing on Oprah, releasing her debut album “Outta Here“, collaboration with artist like Chipmunk, Stanfour and Aggro Santos and now working on her second album “Screaming Out Loud“. We also think she grew vocally just like her performance and as an artist and we can not wait to hear her second album!

We thought it would be a good idea to congratulate Esmée with her anniversairy via twitter by adding #5YearYoutubeEsmee so be sure to send your love by adding #5YearYoutubeEsmee to your tweet.

We would like to give you guys an overview of the best covers (in our opinion) from the last 5 years, be sure to comment your own! You can watch our favorites inside/after the jump.

It’s almost a half year ago since we heard a cover, but after seeing the Esmée latest cover “Someone Like You” we have to say it’s worth the wait! She just released a brand new cover via her Esmeeworld youtube account and we absolutely love it. She is covering “Someone Like You” by Adele. I still can not believe how much her voice has grown over the past few years and she is putting emotion in the song as well which is amazing. The producer Ben Cullum is playing the keys, he is working with Esmée in the studio – with Karl Gordon – on her second album which is expected to release this summer. You can also see Esmée’s new hair-do, she is still blond but she has bangs again.

We also converted the video, you can download the MP3 of the cover and so you can put in on your ipod/mp3 player and listen to it all day long *wink*. Visit this website to download the MP3.

We were really excited when we found out yesterday Adlicious was going to perform Esmée’s “Love Dealer” at X-Factor in the Netherlands since they are our favorite! Adlicious is a dutch group of 3 talented people: Laise, Shirley and Jordy. For the UK fans, you may recognize them since they also entered the UK version of X-factor but they didn’t make it to the live shows.

Adlicious performed “Love Dealer” and Justin Timberlake’s “Love, Sex, Magic” in the remix version of Chew Fu (which is still one of our favorite remixes) yesterday and they rocked it. We really love there rendition of it, so be sure to watch their performance below. It’s not the first time someone covered a song of Esmée during a big talent live show. A lot of contestants covered the song “Outta Here” during the auditions of Popstars and Emmily also did her rendition of the song during the 3th live show of 2009 version of Popstars. We have to admit Adlicious is our favorite so far!

Esmée also made an appearance on the previous season of X-Factor in the Netherlands as guest coach.
