Better than the Original Comments

Hi guys. Hope you haven't forgotten me. I took a step away from this forum.

Anyways what do you guys have to say when judges tell the contestant that they sung better than the original? Honestly I feel that's utter nonsense. I think that in most songs you can't take the credit away from the original singers. There's always an exception like Mauli's Maiya Maiya was clearly better than the original singer. But still how do you feel about these comments? I don't think a contestant should be compared to the original singer in the first place. Everyone has their own unique voice. Neither should credit be taken away from the singers that have originally sung the song. Its an insult to the original singer when the judges say "you sang better than the original." I mean even if they did sing better, why do the judges need to air that on screen? Its a huge insult to the bigger names of the industry. And these music directors should know better! Just my two cents.

worthy 2 cents. 👏

Hey Rini was sometimes better than the original too.

CPR dear totally agree with your post...

Ignore all comments by judges, and accept only those comments which matche your opinion.

Don't take it as a huge insult to the original singers, but as a huge compliment to the contestants.

instead of saying better than original they can say something else to give compliments to the contestants like gaane me char chand laga diye etc.😊

I think it's a perfectly fine compliment to give.The guy who sang the original is also a singer. And you can compare any two singers because singing has nothing to do with success and only to do with how well you have sung. By singing a particular song and getting it recorded, the original singer sets a standard for comparison. It's perfectly alright for someone then to say that it either is better than the original or not as good as the original.
