You're figuring it must be good but its even better than that

 

[RUScrew85]

Well we don't have a legal official language so this seems like a nice way to do it and honor a peace between the Navajo nation and the US.

 

[RU848789]

That's pretty...pretty good.

 

[RUTGERS95]

pretty cool and she sang it really well

 

[RUforester72]

Beautiful. She’s got quite a voice.

 

[ashokan]

Beautiful. She’s got quite a voice.

She does and its also the language.
You can hear more added sounds and the cadence is more mellifluous.
Navajo only has 4 vowels and they get differently and a lot more
English has heavy German roots and can sound like official language of dental association.
Unlike romance languages, English is hard to sing as it is spoken - a reason singers mumble over some words.
People often misunderstand words in songs not realizing its often done on purpose
