Moments Worth Waiting For
The delicate piano introduction of Hallelujah that gives way to a sweeping orchestral swell as the choir joins in.
The unexpected country-soul warmth of Blue Ain’t Your Color where the legendary vibrato meets a modern waltz rhythm.
The climactic, soaring vocal reach during the final chorus of Hello that proves the singer's range remains intact.
