THE WINNER TAKES IT ALL {Cover} (by Meryl Streep: Mamma Mia! movie soundtrack)

SUMMARY:                            RUNNING TIME: 4:57 Min.

Covering ABBA, Meryl Streep performs this tune for Mamma Mia!’s 2008 soundtrack. 

REVIEW:

This poignant take on “The Winner Takes It All” is definitely one of the soundtrack’s highlights.  Meryl Streep’s artistic versatility, not to mention her expressive vocal range, is most impressive here – it’s a similar gift that Helen Reddy had.  Gradually transforming this reflective ballad into a soaring pop tune is no easy task, but Streep accomplishes it with aplomb. 

BRIAN’S ODD MOON RATING:                          9 Stars

Note: Streep’s dynamite rendition of “Mamma Mia” from the same album is also highly recommended.
