Reminds me of Adele Dazeem

I checked the link, which confirmed my guess. Earlier this week I saw a commercial for Letterman that mentioned "Ten Ways to Mispronounce Idina Menzel."
Meryl:
My opera singer friends on Facebook were in two camps about Pink's rendition of "Over the Rainbow." Some defended her as a favorite rock singer, others were super annoyed at her complete disregard of phrasing and her taking breaths at odd moments. Someone wondered why they didn't just ask Bette Midler to sing it. Although I though Pink was in command and admirably composed, I think they could have made a better choice.

I'm sure Bette could have knocked it out of the park.

Yes, I agree......"Somewhere Over the Rainbow" is a beautiful haunting song and it didn't come out that way with Pink...Bette could have done it much much better...
