If you can see through your tears, with which the men had a bit of a struggle, realize that you would be emoting with most of the audience! Prior to the song, the men were slightly sarcastic and condescending in their expressions. She cleared exceeded all expectations. The men's expressions on the panel transformed into shocked joy...joy....for this sound which came from a unexpected source, almost dampened by our own, and the panel's, projections. And, one could speculate they had on their most open, innocent, and and wide-eyed expressions of wonder. It was so delightfully moving to watch the panel's reactions!
Please watch all of the video. I think it is a wondrous song to say farewell to 2017, and even more so to open our New Year. We all have dreams ... lots of them . Susan's energy in this song awakens our dreams with courage, strength, and pride.
Okay, I'm out. I am going to watch it again, and again and again! And not even wipe away my tears of wonder!
There was a time when men were kind.
When their voices were soft.
And their words inviting.
There was a time when love was blind.
And the world was a song.
And the song was exciting.
There was a time...
Then it all went wrong.I dreamed a dream in time gone by,
When hope was high
And life worth living.
I dreamed that love would never die.
I dreamed that God would be forgiving.
Then I was young and unafraid,
And dreams were made and used and wasted.
There was no ransom to be paid,
No song unsung, no wine untasted..........
