“And then there’s O'Hara, whose “Waitin’ For My Dearie” and “Almost Like Being in Love” spill over with blissful warmth and beauty. Like enchanted Scottish villages, talent like hers doesn’t come around very often.“

“But by “vehemently alive”, I refer especially to Kelli O’Hara, who stars as Fiona MacLaren. It can be no surprise that she sings the part well; she has always sung everything well. And though her voice, impossibly, continues to bloom, it is the naturalness of her style, both in singing and acting, that makes her irreplaceable in material like this.”
