Marcovicci’s passionate rendering captures the expectation, hesitation, and danger of falling in love. A soaring melody and powerful rhythm make this a deeply moving expression of longing. (Originally recorded by Pink.)
Here's what Howard Reich of THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE had to say about the song when he saw it in performance:
"In "Glitter in the Air," Marcovicci offers a sweeping melody line and surging rhythmic undertow to capture the heady feeling that comes with letting go of fear and embracing life."
This single is from the full length CD, "SMILE," based upon the hit show of the same name.
"SMILE" offers songs from Tin Pan Alley to Pink including "It's Only a Paper Moon," "Life is Just a Bowl of Cherries," "Are You Havin' any Fun?," "Isn't This a Lovely Day?," "It Had to Be You,""It All Depends on You," Look at Those Eyes," and is available at CDBaby.com
