      Totally agree. It takes a great song like this one to show how super-talented she is! I came here from watching her on SNL doing some of her own hits -- I was trying to figure out why she's so popular. Sure, she's very pretty, hits the notes, can dance the routines, but it's empty, soulless music...it's boring and you can't tell if anyone's home inside the pop tart/vamp exterior. But then I listened to this -- WOW. She can REALLY interpret a song. This is singing with mind, heart, and soul.

You described it perfectly, she really has the tone of voice to sing soul, r&b, blues. But I think she still has a lot to show in her retro pop/electro style. Maybe she will offer some songs a little more prepared to be sung acoustically.
