She's really, really good, Terra Naomi. I'm sure if you frequent youtube you know her already. Whatever, I'm always late to the party. She's a great blend of Alanis Morissette, and a hint of Jewel. Alanis Morissette is an alto, and the style reinterpreted here in this soprano range is just truly beautiful. Terra's tone is clearer than that of Alanis, approach the thinner, more lyrical voice of Jewel. At least in this song, her voice is largely situated between these two singers in terms of tonal quality. And she knows how to use those high notes to great effect. About her musical style, the stream of consciousness lyrics may be overdone, but it has its poetic moments. Overall though, Terra is pretty freaking awesome.
