Compared to the other songs I have on there - it just doesn't fit and sounds as if she is trying way too hard.
So, I decided the reason I love the performance so much, is not because of the song by itself, but because of her performance of the song on the Mirage video. I love how she runs out and barely makes it to the mic to sing the first line, I think she looks as beautiful as ever in white, and it may just be me, but I totally can hear and see the emotion in her voice and face that I think makes it all the more awesome.

I like it and I think she is lambent in it. It is one of her most beautiful apprearances every IMO.
I was at a concert one time and someone was playing it on their car stereo. It sounded really good and much lighter than the dark dark video representation - which was just so raw.
