this is a wonderful rendition of this song...so clear so pure...it's as if she IS praying to god and not just singing the lyrics as we often hear now a days...you can sense the connection with the singer and the song...they become one and that's when we have music.

So wonderful to hear this done so well. We hear it done so poorly way too often these days. A great voice and grand lady.

I remember the moment she performed this. I was utterly amazed at her poise and control in this incredibly intense time ... and such a thoughtful interpretation.

That was awesome. I just hate that they had to keep showing the audience. I have this thing where I have to see the singers face, I don't know why.

That's what I keep saying to myself. She's very beautiful.
