With an emotional performance that showcased her raw bluesy power, Courtney Hadwin took on Make You Feel My Love at the TeenStar Singing Contest. It seems like Hadwin never has enough of solidifying herself as a deeply expressive artist.
It would be unfair to call this rendition a cover, as Hadwin brought her whole self to this, making the song her own. There was weight in each lyric; there was emotion in each note; her voice was trembling with vulnerability at times, and the passion Hadwin clearly had for the song was impossible to deny.

Hadwin made the song far more raw than the original polished iteration, where her signature rasp added a dimension that turned the performance into pure artistic expression.
