Nancy Wilson - Someone to watch over me.

The first song which got me hooked on Nancy was "never will I marry" and this comes a close second.

Her smooth voice just washes over me, and her phrasing is impeccable.

Specifically that 10-plus second, non-vibrato'd note when she sings...

"...the keeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..."

...and it doesn't stop there, but continues into the next phrase...

"...eeeeeeeeeeeeey won't you tell 'em please...."

All in one perfect, beautifully controlled breath.

Marvelous.
