This is such a difficult part for the actor who plays Cathy to capture. Most of the time, Cathy's performance of this song always seems forced or fake. But Sheri Renee Scott nails this. I know she's the original, but I've never seen it acted this well.
Hi - thanks for clarifying this - after my post the CD of the show arrived and I thought the beautiful blonde was Sherie ... thank you for responding. What a great show - I live in London and saw a production at the Edinburgh fringe last week and was very moved by this song.
