curiouswombatI don't watch The Voice. So I really had little idea of who had won it, although I vaguely remember that the winner wasn't the one who was expected to win. So when they said that the winner would be performing on Strictly Come Dancing tonight I was quite prepared to go and make coffee or something - until the opening bar of her performance when I recognised the intro. (Which, sadly, is missing on the video - it goes straight to the opening words.)
The Bruce Springsteen original of this was one of S2C and my favourite songs back in our early days - and I was prepared to be shocked and appalled by this - until about 6 bars in, when I was a convert!
So - Andrea Begley's version of Dancing in the Dark -
I think this might be my new favourite piece of music. Although goodness knows what the husband thinks of it! I guess he'll tell me when he gets home from work.
And yes, she is almost completely blind - although I do think she could find glasses that would look better than those ones!
