This is a wonderful arrangement of It's Gonna Take A Miracle, which was written by Laura Nyro (on of the finest songwriters of the 1960s and the 1970s. Deniece Williams does it justice, indeed. Full orchestration..no synth. She does a fabulous job with the bridge of the song, which takes a turn into a very different key and and whole secondary, unique feel -- like a song within a song.
As good as it was, the second track is one (far less played, far less viewed...) of Laura Nyro at the keyboard and singing her own beautiful song. Her voice is so empassioned, yet so frail. When she writes music, she means every lyric, and feels every note. When she sings, she becomes the song. She is downright soulful.
Take a RadioDAZZ music break. Listen to both versions. If you get back to your desk, cubicle or cubby hole a bit late, Dazz will write a note to your boss. No kidding.
