As a professional musician, I could kiss the bass player and the vibraphone player (not to mention all the others, including background vocalists). They give so much to the special sound. And the one person not on stage, who should be, is the arranger. Holy crap, what a killer arrangement. The "dynamics" - loud and soft parts - add a lot of drama. If you're not a musician, you may miss this, but there's an incredible modulation :47 - :49 that would make Bach smile. I'm in awe of everything about this performance - it's one for the ages!

Normally I'm not big on covers of great songs BUT this is a smoking version of the Jimmy Ruffin classic ! She really knocks it out of the park. Fantastic !!!

This is Joan Osborne on fire. She is blistering. Amazing.
168 dislikes? What planet am I on??? This is one of the best performances I have ever seen and I am not a fan of her music.
