Chills totally through out my soul! TO ME....she totally rocked it without changing it too much. This year, there is truly talent!! Personally, I think the song choice was perfection. A beautiful meaningful song for all people of all nations and is indeed a classic.....and is true to her roots. Even if some folks won't get it...she will truly be moving on in the international music world as well as the US. There are 3 that I will vote on tonight. Tessanne will be on the top of my list!!

As always, music fills one's soul with joy and can turn around and make you cry. Nothing any better to stoke the joy or to ease the pain. Quite frankly, I couldn't imagine a life without music.
