RACHEL TUCKER IS A GODESS. She's even more amazing live! You can literally see the tears streaming down her face, you almost can't believe you are actually there watching it!! Her Elphaba is extremely close to the book and in my opinion, she portrays it better than anyone else ever has. She IS the best elphaba there has ever been, no doubt about it. Sorry, rant over, can you tell I frikkin love this woman?! x
i was there when she did this and my god it was incredible fourth time ive seen her and 7th time ive seen the show and this was the best no good deed ive eva seen both vocally and acting wise! her acting was phenomenal in this song!
Hands down the most unique singer of "no good deed" That crazy fierrooooo is just too much. It's incredible. I heard this in the theatre and Rachel Tucker's voice goes through you're heart and gives you goosebumps. My favourite Elphaba EVER! (i've seen 5 different elphabas). Paired together with Louise Dearman as Glinda (who's now playing Elphie in London) was jusT magic...breathatking singing..!
I'm not Rachel's biggest fan but even I can say that when you see her live her voice goes right through you and gives you shivers. It's pretty incredible.
Was there on Monday, 22nd November 2010. Rachel Tucker and Sarah Earnshaw were FANTASTIC ))) First time seeing WICKED !! Going again in 2 weeks in London again. ))
I saw her last night for the first time and wasn't expecting how good she is! Wow move over Kerry Ellis and the rest of em! There's a new Elphaba in town! ;)
As much as I adore Idina, this is by far my favorite version of No Good Deed. You can hear all the emotion in her voice, and her "Fiyero"! Omiword, I get these chills
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. She is everything Kerry was, and more. I personally got the impression that Kerry was drop dead amazing, but she never really tried that hard and (other than her last show), she seemed to be bored all the time. Rachel, on the other hand, has Kerry's talent and boy does she use it. There's so much passion, and so many riffs without overdoing it! I loved Alexia so much, but Rachel is definitely a more than worthy replacement.
Oh my gosh. This woman is amazing! Her riffs NEVER fail to impress, she is an amazing actress and portrays Elphaba as best ive ever seen. She is just stunning!
Rachel Tucker, perfection. I went to Wicked last thursday and it was a dream come true, i love it and can watch it over and over!!! London CD with this cast THERE HAS TO BE ONE!
I did work experience here in feb, such a lovely current cast they were all so genuine and fun. It was amazing to see the magic of how everything works in such a fantastic show :)
you really have to expearience her live she penetrates your soul with her voice...literally you are heartless if you arent left awestruck at the end of defying gravity or no good deed
Chills... all over. She was absolutely FLAWLESS when I saw Wicked live. In fact, no she was better than that... there was something extra in her performance - her HILARIOUS comic timing in the beginning, and the perfect, natural progression of the character into a much more grown up, dark one and this song... I've always wanted to be an actress and singer, but on film.... I saw Rachel, and as the curtains closed I decided there and then I was going to be on the West End! :P She's... inspiring.
this is still my absolute favourite recording of No Good Deed on the entirety of TH-cam!!! not only are the vocals AMAZING but the percussion in the orchestra sound epic!!! not many recordings really capture it
@welshjoe21 I actually get choked up every time I hear "If you can't find me, look to the western skies," in any recording of the song. I loved the song so much when she sang it. ^^'
I wish there were video of this. You can tell that she is SO much improved from the video of this number that is floating around on TH-cam. She is incredible. This bit always ALWAYS makes me shiver and want to cry. She's so passionate; it's amazing the way she can belt out the high notes, yet still have such passion in them.
I was at this performance was the best ever her acting just topped it off in this! tears where streaming and yet she still had the voice to nail a vocal performance like this she is just incredible x and this was a wenesday aswell lol x
@pilchard96 Rachel Tucker, perfection. I went to Wicked last thursday and it was a dream come true, i love it and can watch it over and over!!! London CD with this cast THERE HAS TO BE ONE! i agreee, it will be criminal if one isn't made!
WOWWWWWWW!!! Awesome, I wish I had the vocal capacity Rachel has. You can see how passionate she is about her job and that she treats it as a career, rather than a chore, you can see some performers just want to rush their way through the performances however you can tell Rachel feels the words,can build up beautifully to climaxes and riff with the right emotion. Such talent is rare, all the best to her :) x
I love Rachel Tucker, I saw her and Louise perform this Tuesday and Wednesday, Wednesday I was sitting in the second row of the stalls right next to the stage, and these two are just superb~ Rachel Tucker's "No Good Deed" simply blew me away on both nights, so I had to come and listen to it again. Thank you for uploading it~ :3
just heard this for the first time and gave me goosebumps! omg i saw wicked on tuesday and louise dearman was elphaba and was amazing but this was wayyy better love rachel ! x
Not only is Rachel freaking amazing, she also looks very good green (not all Elphabas look good in green). I hope she comes back to this role; I'm dying to see her play it.
+WarmCoffeee RIGHT!!💜👌 I was at the 10th anniversary last night and she killed it as always!! There was a standing ovation after Defying Gravity! So lucky to have witnessed it!!😍
Carrie Rose omg i was there too!!!! i literally cried so much during defying gravity it was so insane. wish she'd done the fiyero high note in no good deed:') either way though, best performance ive ever seen and probably will see!!
Thanks for the upload! I'm performing this song (along with Defying Gravity) at a concert tomorrow night, and Rachel Tucker is the Elpheba I saw when I went to see Wicked last year. Before then I was certain I wanted to be a film actor, but now I'm not so sure... saw her and was like *MUST.....BE.....ON.....WEST......END!!!* lol :P Really annoys me that all the video footage has been taken down, because now I can't watch different ones to draw from... -.-
I never said I was a professional. And you can try to teach someone to sing but if they don't have a natural voice they'll never be as good as people like Idina and Rachel.
All actresses that have taken on the role of Elphaba have been truly superb. I do favor Idina in that her singing and speaking voice were so unique as well as her physical characteristics. Somehow, her sharp facial features and the green makeup complimented each other. And she had great chemistry with kristin and nlb. Rachel is really amazing here though.
@malcolmlewis013 Every Elphaba actress brings something to the table. Me myself I prefer Rachel Tucker for No Good Deed, but listen to Dee R. for defying gravity. I like her "Look to the western sky" and "Renown"
ahhhh still LOVE the percussion in this!!! it seems the guitarist has taken over the drummer latelyy though as amazing as louise dearman's last show was i thought the percussion that night was really lame...
She does have amazing riffs in her vocal and I in no way mean for this to sound as though I dislike her performance but .. After seeing and hearing the original cast ie; Idina as the lead, I have to say this does fall short for me personally but I do understand why the rest of you all seem to like it, she is very very good.
Rachel and Eden are my two absolute favourites. I can't decide who I like better. Especially this song. They both really capture the conflict of emotion Elphie faces. I really like Idina's acting, however I'm not a huge fan of her voice. I'm not saying she has a lack of talent, I just personally prefer the richer, darker tone of Eden and Rachel. The power and emotion seems so effortless for Rachel, and her stunning voice. I feel sorry for whoever has to fill the shoes of Rachel Tucker.
WOW! definitely cleanest voice ive ever heard for elphie, and she puts a nice growl into one of the notes that ive never heard any other elphaba try O.o cant say a lot about her acting unless i see an actual vid of this, but damn it sure sounds like shes killing the role. & she really nails those riffs. jesus christ, i didnt know you could put so many riffs into the word "do" and make it sound good. if i ever play this role, id study her elphaba thoroughly to get some good ideas.
I saw Willemijn play the role in Dutch a couple of months ago. I really liked her in the role. Anyone looking for her singing in German watch?v=qCUInhl56wY In Dutch watch?v=y4umAt9HDoI
This is why Rachel Tucker IS Elphaba. If they ever do a movie adaptation, THEY BETTER CHOOSE RACHEL.
RACHEL TUCKER IS A GODESS.
She's even more amazing live!
You can literally see the tears streaming down her face, you almost can't believe you are actually there watching it!!
Her Elphaba is extremely close to the book and in my opinion, she portrays it better than anyone else ever has.
She IS the best elphaba there has ever been, no doubt about it.
Sorry, rant over, can you tell I frikkin love this woman?! x
Ah here she is, her voice my God her voice!! Stunning....blew me away!
I could cry listening to this. So. damn. perfect.
i was there when she did this and my god it was incredible fourth time ive seen her and 7th time ive seen the show and this was the best no good deed ive eva seen both vocally and acting wise! her acting was phenomenal in this song!
THE. best. No good deed. Ever.
her riffs are beyond perfection.
Her final 'again' was astonishing.
Hands down the most unique singer of "no good deed" That crazy fierrooooo is just too much. It's incredible. I heard this in the theatre and Rachel Tucker's voice goes through you're heart and gives you goosebumps. My favourite Elphaba EVER! (i've seen 5 different elphabas).

I'm not Rachel's biggest fan but even I can say that when you see her live her voice goes right through you and gives you shivers. It's pretty incredible.
I saw this girl peform last night.... she is literally INCREDIBLE.... ive never heard anything like it in my life.x
Was there on Monday, 22nd November 2010. Rachel Tucker and Sarah Earnshaw were FANTASTIC )))
First time seeing WICKED !! Going again in 2 weeks in London again. ))
OH MY GOD I can't handle that Fiyero riff. And the ending. WOW. WOW.
@pilchard96 i could listen to this over and over and still get goosebumps.
it is just perfection. i want to go back!
I saw her last night for the first time and wasn't expecting how good she is! Wow move over Kerry Ellis and the rest of em! There's a new Elphaba in town! ;)
I have been listening to this for one and a half hours - non stop. Gives me chills - It never gets old!!!
gREAT OF EVER!
Tht slide on circumvented at 2:43 made my LIFE!
Saw her Thursday. It was awesome.
Wow ... Chills at 2:10, at 2:44, at 3:14, at ..... WELL, EVERYWHERE. Glad to see some Jemma Rix fans down there too! She was my first Elphaba :)
As much as I adore Idina, this is by far my favorite version of No Good Deed. You can hear all the emotion in her voice, and her "Fiyero"! Omiword, I get these chills
I've said this before, and I'll say it again. She is everything Kerry was, and more. I personally got the impression that Kerry was drop dead amazing, but she never really tried that hard and (other than her last show), she seemed to be bored all the time.

Oh my gosh. This woman is amazing! Her riffs NEVER fail to impress, she is an amazing actress and portrays Elphaba as best ive ever seen. She is just stunning!
When I want chills... This is what I listen to. I aspire to sing like her. One day.
Wow her No Good Deed is her best song in the show! So much emotion and power! Love those immense riffs! The ending is superb!
She is so amazing. IMO this is even better than Kerry's last. Goodness knows what her last show is gonna be like. It'll be orgasmic!
Rachel Tucker, perfection. I went to Wicked last thursday and it was a dream come true, i love it and can watch it over and over!!!
London CD with this cast THERE HAS TO BE ONE!
Holy god. That 'fiyero' was incredible. She is so damm talented.
she didn't get the applause that she absolutely deserved -.-
I did work experience here in feb, such a lovely current cast they were all so genuine and fun. It was amazing to see the magic of how everything works in such a fantastic show :)
wowwwwwwwwwwwww :D she sung it exaqctly like this on the 19th minus the amazing again at the end!!!
Wow!!! One of the best 'No good deed' i've ever heard!!! Love Rachel. She is my nr 1 Elphaba :)
you really have to expearience her live she penetrates your soul with her voice...literally you are heartless if you arent left awestruck at the end of defying gravity or no good deed
That Fiyero though.......
Blew me away. I love Idina, but this performance is one of the best I've heard. London is lucky to have her.
Im Speechless. You shoulda seen my face when i went to watch it. dayum this girls got a voice on her!
god she's gorgeous. and by god, those riffs are spine tingling
Chills... all over. She was absolutely FLAWLESS when I saw Wicked live. In fact, no she was better than that... there was something extra in her performance - her HILARIOUS comic timing in the beginning, and the perfect, natural progression of the character into a much more grown up, dark one and this song...

She's... inspiring.
As a big Kerry Ellis fan, I believe it's difficult to match her but loved this performance by Rachel Tucker! She certainly makes the role her own!!
this is still my absolute favourite recording of No Good Deed on the entirety of TH-cam!!! not only are the vocals AMAZING but the percussion in the orchestra sound epic!!! not many recordings really capture it
@welshjoe21 I actually get choked up every time I hear "If you can't find me, look to the western skies," in any recording of the song. I loved the song so much when she sang it. ^^'
I LOVE HER FIYERO RIFF!!
She did it when I saw Wicked last Saturday - I nearly died in my seat. It was amaziingggg, Love to the Tucker!!!!!!
I wish there were video of this. You can tell that she is SO much improved from the video of this number that is floating around on TH-cam. She is incredible. This bit always ALWAYS makes me shiver and want to cry. She's so passionate; it's amazing the way she can belt out the high notes, yet still have such passion in them.

I was at this performance was the best ever her acting just topped it off in this! tears where streaming and yet she still had the voice to nail a vocal performance like this she is just incredible x and this was a wenesday aswell lol x

@pilchard96 Rachel Tucker, perfection. I went to Wicked last thursday and it was a dream come true, i love it and can watch it over and over!!!

I love Rachel Tucker, I saw her and Louise perform this Tuesday and Wednesday, Wednesday I was sitting in the second row of the stalls right next to the stage, and these two are just superb~ Rachel Tucker's "No Good Deed" simply blew me away on both nights, so I had to come and listen to it again.

just heard this for the first time and gave me goosebumps! omg i saw wicked on tuesday and louise dearman was elphaba and was amazing but this was wayyy better love rachel ! x
Not only is Rachel freaking amazing, she also looks very good green (not all Elphabas look good in green). I hope she comes back to this role; I'm dying to see her play it.
@ImABroadwayLuver She definitely is, I saw her perform the role on the 28th June 2011
Fierce.
Seeing this legend live in September. Thank goodness ;)
I see what you did there haha!
Me too!! I timed my trip in order to see her! :P
Saw her again last friday, she is STILL amazing! IMHO the best Elphaba!
+WarmCoffeee RIGHT!!💜👌
I was at the 10th anniversary last night and she killed it as always!! There was a standing ovation after Defying Gravity! So lucky to have witnessed it!!😍
Carrie Rose omg i was there too!!!! i literally cried so much during defying gravity it was so insane. wish she'd done the fiyero high note in no good deed:') either way though, best performance ive ever seen and probably will see!!
I am still recovering from how amazing that performance was!! Feel so lucky to have been there!!
FIYEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
they do a cast cd for all of the london cast like kerry ellis and dianne pilkington and rachel and liouse and that would be EPIC!!!!
yeah. loved it :)
Also the fucking DRUMMER....?! incredible
@welshjoe21 she's the best acting wise aswel! She acts it close to the book and it really works!! she's just the best in general. x
I CANNOT I CANNOT I CANNOT
She's had baby now - He's gorgous!!!! =D
@percycatmill5 the Fiyero riff i am like SHIT THE BED GO GIRLLLLLLLL, SHE IS MY HERO.
I loved the "FIYERO" Riff!! XD
Thanks for the upload! I'm performing this song (along with Defying Gravity) at a concert tomorrow night, and Rachel Tucker is the Elpheba I saw when I went to see Wicked last year. Before then I was certain I wanted to be a film actor, but now I'm not so sure... saw her and was like *MUST.....BE.....ON.....WEST......END!!!* lol :P

Somehow, her sharp facial features and the green makeup complimented each other. And she had great chemistry with kristin and nlb. Rachel is really amazing here though.
@welshjoe21 Couldn't agree with you more! I've seen three Elphaba's and she was by far the best!
w.o.w
Totally agree. been plowing through the videos of wicked and I think that Jemma Rix is the best too. Together with Suzie Mathers!
Wasn't she found on a tv show? Wow..
@malcolmlewis013 Every Elphaba actress brings something to the table. Me myself I prefer Rachel Tucker for No Good Deed, but listen to Dee R. for defying gravity. I like her "Look to the western sky" and "Renown"
besides, Rachel's singing is amazing.
@ImABroadwayLuver She is until December this year.
ahhhh still LOVE the percussion in this!!! it seems the guitarist has taken over the drummer latelyy though as amazing as louise dearman's last show was i thought the percussion that night was really lame...

There was a video of her no good deed it got taken down but the acting was amazing
That last Again is amazing! She is the first Elphaba that has done it that way, right? I hope she keeps it!
Trenton Yoder actually im pretty sure dee roscioli did it first
WHY DID NO ONE APPLAUD FOR THE FIYERO RIFF????
Because British audiences are incredibly respectful and will wait until somebody has finished a performance before applauding?!
Yeah, I mean imagine trying to listen to the riff and the whole audience is applauding?
Emily Louxo there have been multiple times has happened in the uk
God those growls "Gggggrrrrooooowwwssss Unpunished" =D
I saw Willemijn play the role in Dutch a couple of months ago. I really liked her in the role. Anyone looking for her singing in German watch?v=qCUInhl56wY
In Dutch watch?v=y4umAt9HDoI
i will sing like her one day, and i will play the role of Elphaba.
That ENDING. And, this audience was so weak, man.
One Elphaba who hates that long wig.
???
3.12- end :O
@moviefreak316
actually i think you're right :) i heard one where it's longer and it sounds incredible :)
