I love JHud and just about anything she sings including this song!
Wow, how do you even compare the fabulous Judy Garland and the equally fabulous J-Hud? They’re both incredible singers…and Judy could certainly be over the top when she chose. Does not make sense to diss either one. Their versions appeal to different people but that doesn’t mean one’s better than the other. There’s plenty of room in the universe for both, folks. And the producers of this event obviously wanted J-Hud’s big, beautiful pipes and knew she would belt it out of the park.
WOW! i had to register just to leave a comment in this post. amazing! chills!
I LOVED IT! Jennifer Hudson is a force of nature.
Sing it, gurrl.
Judy Garland is Judy Garland and Jennifer is Jennifer. There’s just not comparison between the two of them. I loved this Big, Belty, over the top version because I’m so used to hearing so many recreations of the Garland version this was a nice albeit loud change of pace. I did notice that Jennifer has improved on her performance lessons. I wonder if Fantasia is coaching her and Carrie behind the scenes
