featuring Lucy Stimpson- Maynard from the album Love is the Way recorded and produced by John Hodgkinson<\/p>\n<p>In the blog of April 21st, I shared a video of Loren Allred singing \u201cNever Enough\u201d on \u201cBritain\u2019s Got Talent.\u201d Her performance was amazing and she received the \u201cGolden Buzzer\u201d from Amanda Holden.<br \/>\nI shared the story as I genuinely believed that no one before had realised that she was the voice behind Rebecca Fergeson\u2019s lip syncing performance in \u201cThe Greatest Showman.\u201d  It really did appear that BGT had provided her with an opportunity to show the world \u201cthe face behind the song.\u201d<br \/>\nHowever, it turns out that Loren was already well known as the singer of The Greatest Showman\u2019s \u201cNever Enough.\u201d In fact, in early 2019 she joined Michael Bubl\u00e9  for a duet of &#8220;Help Me Make it Through the Night.&#8221; She also joined Andrea Bocelli for selected performances on his 2021 USA Tour.<br \/>\nSo not quite the \u201cfairy-tale \u201cwe were led to believe and, in any case, not in the same class as the one featured today, which although now 13 years ago, still never fails to delight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Quote of the week <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2f02n2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"782\" height=\"500\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2f02n2.jpg 782w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2f02n2-300x192.jpg 300w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2f02n2-768x491.jpg 768w, https:\/\/risen.org.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2f02n2-624x399.jpg 624w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 782px) 100vw, 782px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Can I Love You More?
