One word: Beautiful.
More then one word? Her vocals are as powerful as ever with emotion wonderfully raw and dripping from each word. The strings add a feeling of decay which help to magnify the semi-hopelessness feel in some places, really giving the lyrics a great deal more power. The drums though there weren't over powering and fit perfectly in the spaces they were given, they really helped to power the song. I think I actually enjoy this version more then Amanda's actual video for the song.

Agreed. The added depth of the additional instruments adds a lot.
