WARNING DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T WANT A CRITIQUE
(This is not meant to offend AT ALL, if I do I apologize beforehand. I just found this and thought that since my best friends are voice majors/musical theatre majors who give me tips on singing and that I have had a few voice lessons myself I could maybe help out.)
AGAIN YOU DO NOT HAVE TO TAKE MY ADVICE THIS IS ALL OPINION!! THIS IS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE OFFENSIVE I JUST THOUGHT IT WOULD BE INTERESTING AND FUN TO DO!!!

Once you learn how to use your diaphragm then you can nail those rock and roll/punk rock songs. Also I feel like you are putting too much pressure on your voice if that makes sense. Your voice sounds cramped and stuck in your throat. You need to push it down and expand it into your diaphragm so that when you get to those high notes in a rock song you can nail them. Rock high notes are generally a lot lower than most high notes, but I think you can do it. I would like to recommend The Hush Sound (more specifically Medicine Man) for possible warm ups, and possible future performances. Their songs are the kind which only sound good when you are fully supported. You're on the right track with that song. Good job!

Love the song choice. The musical is gorgeous. I do not know if it was the music or what, but it seemed way too fast to me. The good thing was though that you were very good at supporting your voice, however it was very breathy, especially at the end. You need to go through the song, find breaks (most of the time they will be marked) and breathe there. Also if you proceed to the next round I would suggest a song that's a little more low key. You missed a few high notes, and I think it would benefit you a lot more if you chose a song with not that high of notes. Your voice has good potential though and like I said earlier it has good support. Now you just have to learn how to train it, and eventually you can hit those "money notes"
Good job!

You're voice is so sweet it's adorable. However it's also very delicate. It could be because of the soft recording as you said, but your voice seemed kind of unsupported. Your voice is like mine kind of. If you do singing warm ups before you sing it will help a LOT!!! Also as I said to Domino Princess, a song with not that high notes is a good warm up. Once you nail those songs you can slowly work your way up to the top. Also speaking about working your way to the top, your voice is all in your throat it seems. To help with supporting your voice try singing from your lower register, known as the diaphragm. I'm not a big fan of Taylor Swift, but I think you did pretty good.

This is all based on what I could hear, which was little because the recording wasn't the most amazing thing in quality ^^;
At the beginning I was confused because I couldn't identify your voice since the music you used had the choral parts in it, I'm guessing since I heard more than one voice....unless the voices in my head decided to go all caroling on me.....But yeah I suggest not using music in the future with a chorus part like this song because then it hides your talent =( Especially when the quality isn't as good. Anyway moving on from technicalities.....I couldn't hear your voice on the high notes because of the choral parts, except for the very last high note I thought you missed that one, but from what I could hear from your voice other than that is that it is very melodic which is good for this kind of song. From what I could hear I felt like you could nail a Regina Spektor song. You just need enough breath and support to hit the high notes because with your voice I feel that you can if you just warm it up properly. I think your song choice was perfect for your kind of voice, and I really think you should try Regina Spektor. No choral music in the music you use next time too ^^;
There's my opinion and advice. Take it if you want to, but you don't have to.
Good luck to all of you in the voting ^^
