“When I did the first show of my tour that I’m on right now, specifically, ‘The Greatest’ just has a lot of, it’s just a special one to us,” she began by saying. “But I did ‘The Greatest’ and I took one of my in-ears out and I just like, heard this giant arena filled with people singing it.”

“They were singing every other song too, but something about hearing that song that has this meaning for me and this memory for me, and also like the memory of us making it and what it gave us in our kind of creative spirit.” 

“And just hearing that crowd sing it, it really made me like, have, you know, in front of me proof. I could see it with my eyes, I could hear it with my ears,” the nine-time Grammy winner continued.
