my sister-client / client-sister got song of the day on npr today!
john murph puts it perfectly as he writes: “The magic in Parlato’s version has a lot to do with what she doesn’t do. Notably, she doesn’t oversell the words with flashy vocalese, nor does she instill the original with a smug, knowing wink. Instead, she relies on the conviction of her artistry — and on the song’s inherent beauty.”
