Dami Im hasn’t set a foot wrong since winning X Factor Australia. Sure, her winner’s single “Alive” owes a small debt to Katy Perry‘s “Roar” but the South Korean-born diva found her sound on “Super Love” and then delivered one of the best pop anthems of 2014 with “Gladiator”. The rising star continues to impress with a beautiful acoustic version of her current hit.

Dami and her guitarist transform the toetapper into a stripped-back ballad that showcases the full range of her powerful pipes. She not only sounds amazing and but looks like a model in her elegant black dress. It will be interesting to see what direction the Aussie pop queen takes on her third studio LP because that voice is capable of just about anything. Watch up top.
