We can agree to disagree. Julie's version was technically perfect, but lacked heart, IMO.Quote:

While Karen's rendition is beautiful, it's not the right song for her.

No video for this one, but it's Karen. She ain't my favourite ( you would probably shudder, old as you are ), but she was astonishing.Quote:
