It would’ve been so easy for Trisha Yearwood to sing the hell out of “I Would’ve Loved You Anyway.” She could’ve gone full Jennifer Nettles, wailing big notes and peeling the paint off the walls. But she doesn’t. She sings with power, yes, but she also sings with nuance. Even when the music around her is building to its bombastic crescendo, she has the control of an absolute professional.
