Well, she floored me with this rendition. I had no idea she was capable of that style of singing. Additionally, she did this on a song that's pretty much sacred -- you just don't mess with it. But she did, and got away with it beautifully. Well done, Lulu!! And you're looking great, too.

Barry Manilow and Lulu re-arranged it... and I agree. It's the best I've ever heard and the best guest-star performance on Am Idol. And Jordin Sparks looked terrified... like the bar was just raised.

As much as I love this version of this song. I still perfer the original radio version and the album version better. But don't you ever doubt that this version was great. Just say Lulu was definitely feeling it that night. She definitely nailed it, and she was definitely feeling it when she saw her version on American Idol. Just for you to know, I totally and completely love this song. Lulu was definitely on fire that night.
