I's a beautiful cover and it was a great surprise to hear it as part of Love Actually (I have watched the movie only recently). Still i would have preferred to listen to it sung by Christine; the director in the behind the scenes explained that he decided to put Songbird in that moment of the film after having tried many other songs, but didn't tell why he opted for a cover. Oh well, at least he chose the best Joni MItchell's version of Both Sides Now for the key scene with Emma Thompson.
