Cynthia Erivo's powerhouse performance of 'Nothing Compares 2 U'

Glad to hear Cynthia cover Prince. She is about as in-demand as anyone could ever wish for.

Shout out to the electric guitar soloist as well.

She's brilliant. I'm glad she's getting more and more exposure in the U.S. I'm very curious to see her in Wicked - you know, when it gets made and released in 2095.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I think the song has become much more than who wrote/performed it.

So many great renditions, from Chris Cornell to Cynthia Erivo.

I really think that this is Prince's greatest songwriting achievement.

What could be said about Cynthia Erivo? The voice extension capacity and versatility. The crystal clear vocal emissions. The emotions on each and every words, lyrics. Cynthia Erivo seems like from other world, extremely gifted, powerful. Gets better and better on every single performance. Looking forward to seeing you live soon

I think each her performance keeps improving. She has pure and transparent vocal sounds.
