I’m blown away by the boldness of this choice. Olivia is an amazing talent, but here she’s shown great commitment to honoring songwriting and exposing a new audience to past genius.

I can't even believe I'm listening to something this devine. She sings from her soul. The orchestra is perfect. How did she even do this, choose this song, pull this off. Beautifully done.
