Best thing of the night. Puts all of todays talent to shame.

I smiled when I saw her. Her voice was phenomenal

It was so beautiful, simple, pure and organic. No need to do vocal gymnastics like todays singers.she puts them all to shame.

Bette's usually great. But the song is dated, overrated, had no place here and her performance was overdramatic (did she actually flap her wings at the end?).

I could stand to never hear the song ever again.

I agree, song stinks! But really love Bette!

She flapped her arms at the end..... And you think this was beautiful??

Eh, she's past her expiration date for sure. As much as I detest that soggy ol' cliche of a song, it can at the very least sound nice if people hit the notes right. Anything else is a waste of time.
