Phenomenal performance. There's nothing that hasn't already been said for JHud, and words are never enough about this superb artist. Let's also say a word for the maestro who made this arrangement, the musicians that performed it, and the production crew that brought it live. Amazing work. Again, Jennifer, you are out of this planet. Al Green, respect.
