Useful detail

Performance tip

Sweetest Perfection needs one clear preparation choice: plan a breath within the longest line, which is about 14 words. For Sweetest Perfection, that detail will matter more than adding extra volume.

Recommendation

Should you sing it?

Sweetest Perfection rewards a singer who knows the lyric well enough to focus on the lyric’s point of view. Its structure offers some repeated lines to anchor the arrangement, while the words have room to shape the lines without cramming them. Plan to carry the verses yourself; this is not rated as a dependable full-room singalong.
