The hours of promotion, rehearsals, recordings and photo shoots paid off with this performance. It was one of the best performances of my career. I really loved every minute of it. We all did.

I wish she had been alive to see it. When I was a little girl, I used to lock myself in my room and play her records. Singing her songs is something I had always wanted to do. The tribute was a nice way of showing her how much we admired her.

the MLB promotion undercuts this recognition.
