Deniece Williams masterfully transforms this lyrically cute piece into an anthem. Deniece creates incredible key and pitch nuances which make her listeners want to cheer, dance, and "give the boy a hand." As we expect and as “Let’s Hear It For The Boy” closes, Williams stratospherically jumpstarts her coloratura soprano, defying vocal gravity. Deniece Williams’ rendering of “Let’s Hear It For The Boy” is perfection.
