From the very first verse it was clear that she had an amazing voice and this song was going to be unlike any you’ve ever heard before.
She took the classic version of it and put her own spin on it in an amazing way. The crowd went crazy, the judges were shocked, and I’m sure even Freddy Mercury would give it a thumbs up.
