Artists have their high and low moments. There are times when singers give great performances while other times they fail to make magic on stage.
And then there are instances when they shine like never before, delivering a tour-de-force rendition of a song that mentally transports the audience to a whole other world of art, even though they've heard that number a thousand times before.
A grand, genius music arrangement that reaches to the soul of the lyrics and powerful vocal styles intertwined impeccably to embody the brilliance that live performances can bring. Now that's what I call music.
It was in 2008. I was watching the CNN Heroes special on TV when this performance came on. It was the most beautiful interpretation of this song I had ever heard and it ended on a magnificent note, followed by a glorious standing ovation. Watch it here.
