My Take
Sara Bareilles is the rare pop artist who genuinely deserves the songwriter label. "Love Song" was a cheeky middle finger to label pressure, which made it all the more satisfying when it became a smash. But what truly elevated her for me was Waitress, where she proved she could carry an entire Broadway score with warmth, wit and aching emotion, songs like "She Used to Be Mine" are gut-punches. She has a voice that feels conversational and intimate even at full belt, and her willingness to move between pop, theater and television without losing her identity is something I deeply admire.
