If she did it as a conventional song it would not have been as special.
It is a hard song to sing (ask carl lewis :d). And jimmy kimmel proved that the average person likely does not even know the words to the song. Heck we have people that crack in officiating when they have a couple of thousand watching them, there was millions watching this. I am sure it was a little overwhelming.
