About the Artist: Vanessa Williams

Vanessa Williams is a Grammy Award-winning singer, actress, and performer whose career spans multiple decades and genres. Her vocal artistry encompasses pop, R&B, jazz, and musical theater, making her a versatile interpreter of contemporary material.

Why we love this

This adult contemporary ballad gives vocalists and pianist-singers access to emotionally grounded material that prioritizes lyrical storytelling over vocal pyrotechnics. The piano/vocal/chord format supports both solo recitals and intimate studio arrangements, making it equally valuable for voice lesson repertoire and jazz standards study.

What to expect

A tender, grounded ballad that speaks to belonging and connection. The harmonic language feels warm and introspective, inviting the performer to find vulnerability in the performance without demanding vocal heroics.

Who it's for

Vocalists preparing solo recital material, pianist-singers developing contemporary pop/rock repertoire, and voice students seeking accessible yet sophisticated adult contemporary songs. It works well for advanced young singers exploring material beyond traditional classical standards.

How to get the most out of it

  • Lean into the lyrical quality of the melody; this song rewards sustained phrasing and careful word emphasis over technical display.
  • Balance the piano accompaniment dynamics so the vocal line remains the primary focus throughout.
  • Explore the emotional subtext of each section; the chords suggest harmonic depth that can support interpretive choices in tempo and expression.
  • Use the chord chart to personalize the arrangement or transpose to suit your range without losing the song's intimate character.

How to use it

Program this as a bridge piece between art song and contemporary pop standards in a solo recital, or feature it in a jazz or popular music concert alongside other adult contemporary repertoire. It also functions as an effective audition or lesson piece for singers exploring musical theater and popular music.
