Nice video. And a very different rendition of "the song" than we have become accustomed to.

And 30 years later, her voice is just as good. She's really an amazing talent.

It kind've took me for a ride how she's playing Effie when she's not "big", but she looks great! Her voice is gorgeous, and I love her version. It was almost as if she was singing it "pretty" with a "dreadful" tone. While Jennifer sung it with a "strong, big, and begging" tone. Both of their versions are amazing either way.
