Lyrics:

How can I just let you walk away?
Just let you leave without a trace
When I stand here taking every breath, with you, ooh
You're the only one who really knew me at all

How can you just walk away from me?
When all I can do is watch you leave
'Cos we've shared the laughter and the pain and even shared the tears
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now, oh there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me
Just the memory of your face
Ooh, take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And you coming back to me is against the odds
And that's what I've got to face

I wish, I could just make you turn around
Turn around and see me cry
There's so much I need to say to you so many reasons why
You're the only one who really knew me at all

So take a look at me now, well there's just an empty space
And there's nothin' left here to remind me, just the memory of your face
Now take a look at me now, 'cos there's just an empty space
But to wait for you, is all I can do and that's what I've got to face
Take a good look at me now, 'cos I'll still be standin' here
And you coming back to me is against all odds
It's the chance I've gotta take

Take a look at me now

This is one of the best covers of this song. No super drawn out notes and a lot of emotion. This is great!

So wonderful to see younger generations reaching back into my past and using the great songs and ballads that grabbed my heart back then.

Beautiful young lady with a beautiful voice, and so talented musically.

I feel as though I know what a blind person hears when I listen to Miss Linge. Music so powerful I'm not influenced at all on what I see but only what I hear.

Hello Emily, today I listened again to the original version of "Against all Odds" by Phil Collins and after listening to your cover over and over again, I want to tell you that I liked your version better, both for the angelic nature of your voice, and for your piano. Your talent is truly spectacular and I thank you for continuing to delight us with your covers and your original songs. Hugs and congratulations.

Perfect pitch. Perfect interpretation. Perfect keyboards. Perfect vocals.

Emily, I thought you were never gonna 'attempt to sing/record' this wonderful piece... one of the best songs ever written, IMHO. Well done 👍🏽
