Is Jennifer Hudson's Classic Cover 'Over' And Above?


In addition to Bilal doing justice to "Home" during last night's The Wizard of Oz celebration in Central Park, Academy and Grammy Award winner Jennifer Hudson showed up and showed out with her rendition of "Over The Rainbow," and thankfully, event sponsor Netflix captured it for our review. Hudson, who covered the song previously in tribute to Patti LaBelle earlier this year, seems to be in Patti-lite mode during this performance, attempting to reach her idol's heights by vocally catapulting herself over the rainbow, but landing halfway to glory. Take a look, and try not to be distracted by Questlove's head-swaying while drumming. That dude is everywhere, I tell you. Heh. Is her version too "over" the top, or does it land "somehwere" in the middle? Let us know in the comments.
