winning performances

“The Singer“ (1903)
___________
though a new winner was crowned
this year again at Québec’s “La voix“,
last year’s winner, who made a guest
appearance at the ceremony, wins
again hands down, I think, Yoan
Garneau incontrovertibly delivers
listen to him sing both “J’entends
siffler le train” and “Good-Hearted
Woman”, wherein I am of course
the good-hearted woman
listen to Peter, Paul and Mary do
“…siffler…” in the original English,
you’ll cry
meanwhile at “The Voice UK“, Stevie
McCrorie sings “I’ll Stand By You“,
powerfully, and wins despite the
formidable opposition from Lucy
O’Byrne doing “No Surprises“,
wherein I am the very air that
bristles around her music
