Mike - she was on the Doctor Who Christmas Episode last year.
Here's what it should sound like -
Why do I like it? Beautiful melody, dramatic lyrics, and a great orchestral arrangement. What's not to like?
About my version - I just heard this arrangement yesterday when researched songs for today and had to do it. With some residual hoarseness, a busy day spent partly in a smoky casino, and a late return home (I did this at 10:30PM!), I expected it to be a lot worse. I wish the backing track had the choir in it, and the final note was a bit Kermit-y but otherwise I was really pleased with the result. Of course, with more than a day's exposure and a bit of rest (and if I could get the placement of that last note right!), it would be loads better. I will be doing this again for sure. An 8 out of 10 , based on potential.
Tomorrow - This here's the Van Lear Rose... no, can't do that one, no backing track :-(
