I saw that... it doesn’t matter this is a good Bette Midler song, fact is it wasn’t a good song for her to sing and this is what she isn’t getting... it isn’t about what she likes, it’s about what she can sing, what is in her range. Since she clearly doesn’t understand that it’s time for her to go, this performance tonight was painful to watch.
I agree. She was NOT getting it. Just because you like a song doesn't mean it is a good song for you to sing. Her problem though is she was arguing that she 'changed' it up, (artistry). Again, if the song is a bad fit, changing it up by starting normal, going gospel, then going back to normal, doesn't mean it fit any better. I hated what she did to that song.
