It's a kinda New-Age-y/Singer-Songwriter hybrid.
Space-y, limited dynamics, sad.
Good production values... but it will NEVER displace Ella Fitzgerald's "Easy to Love."
BTW, if any show exhibitor wants a killer, clever, witty, sexy female vocal that hardly anyone has heard, it's Julia Fordham's "For You, Only for You," from her breakthrough 1990s album "Porcelain."
It's an "Answer Song" to "Cry Me a River," believe it or not!!!
If someone says to her "Cry Me a River," Julia Fordham will respond, "Did you have any particular river in mind?"
She's one smart cookie.

Though I'm willing to be proven wrong, this is one of those selections that I can't help but think neither the attendees nor the exhibitor actually listens to at home for pleasure. After all, she does have other songs. But I know I'll hear "Liberty" multiple times during my three days.
