I heard 1st graders are singing this generously humble song to their departing teacher at an assembly this morning . I got to hear just 2 of my grand kids rehearsal and it choked me up can’t imagine 30 voices thanking their teacher , she’ll be a basket case for sure.

This is the best performance of this song on KZbin. Most rockin, and most heartfelt. Natalie is at her most relaxed, but see how she twists her hair while spouting German to an audience member? How she paces back and forth across the stage like a caged creature?That's part of what makes her so interesting. She really is the kind, feeling person who wrote those lyrics, and is not entirely comfortable on a stage
