That’s the result of breathy singing. While the effect created can be pretty, or whatever, over time It causes difficulties with register changes, and damages the vocal folds so even simple production of sound is more effortful as well as a ton of other things...
I don't think she's struggling at all. She's constantly jumping between vocal positions and colours, sometimes word by word. What she's doing in this song requires masterful breath control as there's little time between phrases. The fact that she's sitting down with an instrument and with child makes it no less impressive. I think I heard a couple flat notes but that's nothing to complain about. All in all, I think you're mistaking the sound of masterful breath control with struggling.
@@LaDivinaLover That's only true if your goal is to sing as loud as possible. If you sing to a microphone, you have more options for the voice colour as the loudness doesn't matter.
Wow, how I am just seeing this performance in 2021.... literal chills 😨
She is puré musical genius. Each composition is chill-inducing
Guy Sigsworth is a huge part of this song also, you should check out his work too!
Experiencing this song live would be magical
I wish she'd re-record this song. It's my favorite of her's (technically Frou Frou's).

This just might be the best live version of Let Go!
The whole bit at the beginning about the voting was hilarious! Imogen is great
Sage Vodka I know right
Sage toothpaste a woman of the people

She's like an absent-minded professor, but cute as hell rather than annoying as hell.
