Cynthia Erivo - At Last

Grammy-winning Cynthia Erivo lends her incredible pipes to the Proms for what will be a beautiful night of tributes to the women who inspired her. Performing at the Royal Albert Hall, and backed by the BBC Concert Orchestra, Erivo will cover hits from iconic artists such as Etta James, Nina Simone, Shirley Bassey, Billie Holiday, and Gladys Knight.

Lyrics "At Last":
At last, my love has come along
My lonely days are over
And life is like a song
Ooh yeah, yeah
At last, the skies above are blue
My heart was wrapped up in clover
The night I looked at you
I found a dream, that I could speak to
A dream that I can call my own
I found a thrill to rest my cheek to
A thrill that I have never known
Ohh yeah yeah
You smile
You smile
Oh and then the spell was cast
And here we are in heaven
For you are mine
At last

I’m a hardcore Etta fan and I rarely applaud covers, but I got CHILLS listening to this gorgeous voice. What a talent!!!!

[@feliciagittens6911]

So true.

[@claudettezabsonre4572]

I’m a Etta gal too, this is the icing on the cake!

[@reemclaughlin4260]

Yes!

[@erhardjackel4822]

sorry this Performance did not convince me

[@jimhobbs5356]

Etta made "At Last" hers, but of course she wasn't the original performer either, so in a sense hers is a cover. It is a great song with many good renditions before and since Etta. Etta is my favorite as well!!

[@Rebecky579]

Finally, someone who didn’t over sing this beautiful song! No one sings it like Etta, but CE brilliantly kept the purity of the original masterpiece. She showed respect for the song and Etta.

[@williammitchell1804]

Thank you Cynthia Erivo. You did right by Etta James. This song requires serious control. Also you made that gown look like it was made from precious metal.

[@lauryn7840]

She's a tether who hates ADOS
