Wow! At the beginning I thought her voice was too harsh for the song, but by the end I was in love. Her “something has died” pierced my heart. Amazing.
Saw her in Cleveland, she was INCREDIBLE!!! She filled that beautiful theater with her powerful voice and message, and it was beyond describable. She is amazing.
@@MrAkardashian I remembered her from the filmed performance of Legally Blonde that was shown on MTV. She was one of the Delta Nu girls in the original cast. I also had the pleasure of seeing her as Cynthia Weil on the Beautiful: The Carol King Musical North American tour. And recently in Come From Away. I don't really pay attention to who's the touring cast prior to watching the show, so it's always a pleasant surprise each time to flip open the program before the show and see her name.
I just saw the show in Los Angeles and it was phenomenal! Truly one of the best pieces of theatre I have ever seen. The whole cast was amazing, especially with constantly switching between characters and accents. This song was also amazing and moving.
becky is amazing in the national tour cast i just saw her thursday in orlando. it was great they changed the disneyland lyric to disney world. and it made the part about one of the planes was full of make a wish kids hit home for a lot of the audiance who work here with give kids the world and make a wish in various capacities
ya thats the one bit the broadway original star jenn colella laughed at. she went you want me to say im 51 when she was just 43 and looks like shes in her 30's but that is capt. bass's story and it fits
I just saw this musical on Friday in New York and I am so obsessed with this song and her voice. 😂 Personally, I think her voice is better than the original broadway actress, but I also heard this one live so I guess I'm biased. Either way- Just 😍
Although her voice has a slightly harsher, thinner tone than I'd like, it's still incredible. It's effortless and she has a great range. There's some emotion there for sure, especially towards the end, but this just doesn't have the same power as Jenn's performance for me. Every word and line is packed with emotion and you just believe it. She becomes Beverly and her journey in this song is so moving. Jenn's voice is amazing and strong and she's got a great high belt, but Becky's voice is probably technically better. But for the overall performance, I haven't seen anyone surpass Jenn.
Cant wait to see this show in April! I was so ready to not like her because Jenn Colella is soooo perfect, but when she started singing I got goosebumps!
Me And The Sky Jenn Colella My parents must have thought they had a crazy kid 'Cause I was one of those kids who always knew what I wanted They took me down to the airport to see all the planes departing Watching them fly something inside of me was starting I was eight when I told them that I'd be a pilot But I was too young and too short and there were no female captains and my dad said, "be patient" he said, "just see what happens" But I took my first lesson came down from the sky and told my father I'd fly for the rest of my life And I got my first job flying for a mortician in a tiny bonanza, just a corpse and me Five dollars an hour for flying dead bodies I had to climb over their faces just to get to my seat And suddenly the wheels lift off the ground is falling backwards I am suddenly alive Suddenly I'm in the cockpit Suddenly everything's changed Suddenly I'm not too young or too short and the passengers in the back don't complain Suddenly I'm flying company charters Suddenly everything's high Suddenly there's nothing in between me and the sky American Airlines had the prettiest planes So I applied as a flight engineer But the World War II pilots, they all complained They said, "girls shouldn't be in the cockpit" "Hey lady, hey baby, hey!

Her pitch is flawless, I'm just not a fan of her vocal tone (but there's not much she can do about that, so hats off to her for the technical perfection I guess lol)
same here! she’s not right for the role in my opinion, very pitchy voice and she doesn’t seem to give off that kickass vibe that beverly bass is supposed to.
Her performance was great but I like Jenn Colella better. She showed so much more emotion into it. Although the break in Becky's voice when she said "the one thing I loved the most" was powerful.
Please fix your sound engineering! She has an amazing voice but the background music is too low and it just sounds wrong :/
I know! It sounds like someone singing toyoutUber video of the instrumenta
Wow! At the beginning I thought her voice was too harsh for the song, but by the end I was in love. Her “something has died” pierced my heart. Amazing.
Saw her in Cleveland, she was INCREDIBLE!!! She filled that beautiful theater with her powerful voice and message, and it was beyond describable. She is amazing.
You do know she only got the job because they needed a fill in for 4 months until Rachel Tucker could get out to NY lol
Omg I remember her from the Legally Blonde US Tour! She's come very far 😊
Summer Oswald that’s what I said

She has an amazing vocal range!! I love how much she gets involved with the character through her powerful voice
"i had to climb over their faces"
HAHAHAHA THAT'S MY FAVORITE PART BECAUSE SHE MAKES ME LAUGH WELL DONE BECKY
I just saw the show in Los Angeles and it was phenomenal! Truly one of the best pieces of theatre I have ever seen. The whole cast was amazing, especially with constantly switching between characters and accents. This song was also amazing and moving.

She's the first I've seen to put so much emotion into the bomb part.. impressive work!
I love this musical and this is my favorite song from it
Already got my tickets almost a year in advance to see them in Chicago.
I had her just around this release date and I really really loved her performance!!
I've seen the show twice in toronto, so good!!
I saw her last night in Atlanta, she was amazing! See this show if it comes to your town!
When she said she's 51 I laughed a little

but that is capt. bass's story and it fits
She looks far too young

I MET HER SHES SO SWEET
Incredible!

Me And The Sky
Jenn Colella
My parents must have thought they had a crazy kid
'Cause I was one of those kids who always knew what I wanted
They took me down to the airport to see all the planes departing
Watching them fly something inside of me was starting
I was eight when I told them that I'd be a pilot
But I was too young and too short
and there were no female captains
and my dad said, "be patient" he said, "just see what happens"
But I took my first lesson came down from the sky
and told my father I'd fly for the rest of my life
And I got my first job flying for a mortician
in a tiny bonanza, just a corpse and me
Five dollars an hour for flying dead bodies
I had to climb over their faces just to get to my seat
And suddenly the wheels lift off
the ground is falling backwards
I am suddenly alive
Suddenly I'm in the cockpit
Suddenly everything's changed
Suddenly I'm not too young or too short
and the passengers in the back don't complain
Suddenly I'm flying company charters
Suddenly everything's high
Suddenly there's nothing in between me and the sky
American Airlines had the prettiest planes
So I applied as a flight engineer
But the World War II pilots, they all complained
They said, "girls shouldn't be in the cockpit"
"Hey lady, hey baby, hey! Why don't you grab us a drink?"
And the flight attendants weren't my friends back then
and they said, "Are you better than us, do you think?"
But I kept getting hired
And the World War II crew, they retired
And the girls all thought much higher of me
1986 the first female American captain in history
Suddenly I'm in the cockpit
Suddenly I've got my wings
Suddenly all of those pilots protested me
Well, they can get their own drinks
Suddenly there's no one saying, "Stay grounded"
Looking down passing them by
Suddenly there's nothing in between me and the sky
Suddenly I've got an all female crew
The news talked, it made headlines across the world
Suddenly it stopped
No one saying, "You can't" or "You won't"
or "You know you're not anything 'cause you're a girl"
Suddenly I'm getting married
and we're putting pins on the map where we've flown
Suddenly I am a mother
and suddenly shocked at how much they've grown
Suddenly I'm wondering how my parents would feel
seeing me teaching men to be pilots
'Cause suddenly I am a senior instructor
and somehow I'm 51
Suddenly I'm flying Paris to Dallas
Across The Atlantic and feeling calm
When suddenly someone on air to air traffic says
"At 8: 46 there's been a terrorist action"
And the one thing I loved more than anything
was used as the bomb
Suddenly I'm in a hotel
Suddenly something has died
Suddenly there's something in between me and the sky

pretty good, not Jenn Colella but decent. We've been spoiled by seeing and meeting the original cast and crew.
Her pitch is flawless, I'm just not a fan of her vocal tone (but there's not much she can do about that, so hats off to her for the technical perfection I guess lol)
same here! she’s not right for the role in my opinion, very pitchy voice and she doesn’t seem to give off that kickass vibe that beverly bass is supposed to.
Your sound mixing is really really bad, please fix it!
Her performance was great but I like Jenn Colella better. She showed so much more emotion into it. Although the break in Becky's voice when she said "the one thing I loved the most" was powerful.
She’s cute.
Shes perfect despite the fact she absolutely doesn't look like 51 :D
Glindaful Neither does Jenn Colella!
The Sound engineering isn't great but you can hear her voice better I guess lol
she looks like my old english teacher
❤️
Wow the mic and sound engineering is horrible! Really did her a disservice. Give her some volume or echo at least. It almost sounds muted.
invented singing
She doesn’t look 51 at all. 40 max could play 35.
Jen Colella doing this song is SO much better. There’s no comparison
Jenn does it soooo much better!
it's not a competition
Rachel Tucker wipes the floor with both
Acting is not there.
