She's LITERALLY a real-life living Ariel and she's so perfect for the role. Just look at her eyes, eyebrows and jawline! Plus she can sing and skate like CRAZYYY!!! She's so perfect...
Age 71 here, And I must admit that Sierra is the first Broadway star that has overwhelmed me. This video is typical and the tip of the iceberg of her ability. I seriously cannot get enough of her.
@@carolynhamilton6870 no its not. He hair is like that . Go google her. She has long red hair with the fringe on the side. Even now when she doesnt play the role anymore
NO ONE This is a wig. She was a brunette here. There’s a photo of her holding this wig with brown hair and a video of it being put on. She dyed it a burgundy color after this, and not until much later did she do the auburn red
If only The Little Mermaid live action auditioning happened ten or fifteen years ago! Sierra would’ve been it, hands down! But so glad she got to do the Broadway production, and Halle Bailey will certainly do us proud! Her voice is just as heavenly and amazing!
Damn she would have been perfect for the live action 2023 film the beautiful long vibrant red hair, the blue eyes and that beautiful voice. I wished Disney would've went this direction for the 2023 film instead.
@@brianekay4149 no one can sing Little Mermaid songs like the original can, but hey, Sierra can come close second, and she even looks a lot like Ariel. If we are to have a live action movie of Little Mermaid, Sierra would be the perfect choice (but they already cast someone for it, so...).
I remember when I was that kid seeing this as my first shoe and being mesmerized and my love for theatre started. Broadway helps me through life and all my troubles.
She mispronounced her name, it's Sierra as in Sierra Madre Mountains. Sierra Boggess, she also has played Christine in Phantom of the Opera. She is phenomenal!!!
I love how they keep going back to little kids It shows what a big impact she has, and everyone has, and its just so beautiful. GREAT JOB SIERRA! YOU ARE MY IDOL!
Am aging myself here, but as I here this song, and it is a lovely song, it reminds me so much of a song that I heard when I was in college, 'Somewhere that's Green', from "Little Shop of Horrors"! I do believe the composer is the same though I am not sure. The 2 songs are so similar and the lyrics, though very different, have the same sense of hope. if anyone is interested, listen to the song from Little Shop, and the above song, and, especially, in the last few bars, find if they sound similar to you, too. Again, both lovely, full of hope and both oddly similar in melody and structure. BTW...Love Sierra Boggess and hope that as she is very known for theatre in the UK, that she will be as popular in the US. See her in many roles from Anna to Laurie to Julie Jordan...the very 'Americana' roles from our golden age of Broadway. Beautiful and powerful voice.
Gary Peter You are correct. Alan Menken composed the music for Little Shop Of Horrors and The Little Mermaid & Howard Ashman wrote the lyrics for both.
Me and my ex gf use to go out and sing karaoke. She would sing this song and it was amazing. she left me awhile ago but I still love her and think of her quite often and when missing her becomes to much to bare I listen to this.
sierra is SPLENDID. she's not only soo amazingly talentedd, but so sweeet. i LOVEHERRR. good lord i miss it so much!!! it needs to come back to b'way ASAP!
Sierra is out of this world! Btw , that little girl's face at 2:43 is why I do musical theatre . It's precious to be able to connect with an audience.🤗🥰
Jodi's version was, respectively, very Disney Princess-like. Which I love. Sierra is singing the song the way the Broadway version is written. Very rare does a Broadway show not the "main" song not belting. Both singers are very talented and sang this song beautifully.
The faces of the little girls and the people in the audience was amazing, that must just have made their days. I LOVE Sierra Boggess, not only is her voice fantastic, but she THROWS herself into the part. It is possible to truly BELIEVE her song...its beautiful and amazing
Disney hasn’t announced the castings for the live action The Little Mermaid but please disney, cast someone who will play this iconic character like how Sierra and Jodi did. Sierra perfectly embodied ariel in live action form and she just exceeded everyone’s expectations, so the next Ariel will have big shoes to fill. I don’t care if you’ll cast a newbie actress, what we need is the aura and angelic voice of Ariel, may it be asian, caucasian, black or any ethnicity, as long as she embodies ariel perfectly.
@@marcoterres3421 And now the beautiful Halle Bailey is our new live action Ariel 😍 Thank you Disney for granting my wish 🥺😍💗 She is absolutely perfect!
@@juneil-b yk, it would be better if she made princess and the frog instead..... it's a classic princess with amazing representation, instead of changing the princess we knew for years....
Sierra is amazing, she has one the most beautiful voice I've ever heard but it is not very nice for Jody Benson to say to Sierra "you sound better than the original"...
sure, but is it really all that mean when the original herself was the one who said that? It's a true compliment when even the original singer admits it.
this video made me cry i know lots of people say that all the time but im not lying it actually made me cry the love i feel for this film and especially this song is infinite. thank you so much Sierra, thats all i can say your voice is beauty, and you made me cry with the song i have heard since i was a baby, im 16 now and i cant believe i cried with a song i knew so well thank you
I loved how Sierra seemed so humbled by the reporters complements. She really did appriciate the feedback. And the children's reaction's to her fantastic vocals made me well up with emotion! She knows how to capitivate people young and old!
and in a bed
Stephanie Rose AHAHA
HAHAHAHHAHA
ONLY US NERDS WOULD GET THIS OMLLLL
Omg hahahaha
😂😂😂😂
OH MY GOSH SHE PLAYS CHRISTINE AND ARIEL BUT BOTH OF THE LOVE INTEREST NAME IS ERIK
GillPaige HOLY SHIT I JUST NOTICED THAT
GillPaige OH MY LORD
Um....hate to be a party crasher, but Christine's love interest is Raoul, not Eric.
HOLY SHIT THIS IS FATE. WE MUST FIND MORE MALE CHARACTERS WHO ARE NAMED ERIC SO SHE COULD PLAY THE FEMALE PARTTTT
AND THEY'RE BOTH KNOWN FOR THEIR VOICES AND HAVE A CHARACTER WHO SAYS SING FOR ME
She's LITERALLY a real-life living Ariel and she's so perfect for the role. Just look at her eyes, eyebrows and jawline! Plus she can sing and skate like CRAZYYY!!! She's so perfect...
Angelina Lim she did competitive ice skating for 10 years so that's not surprising!
The smile on the children's faces in the audience tells it all.
Age 71 here, And I must admit that Sierra is the first Broadway star that has overwhelmed me. This video is typical and the tip of the iceberg of her ability. I seriously cannot get enough of her.
Mike Luck Love her MERRY MONTH OF MAY at PROMS.
*sees the little girl smile* crumbles inside
Viktoreia tears
I've gotten so used to her singing in mature roles from Phantom and such and omg! she sounds so different!! She is soooo talented!!!!
She SELLS every song she sings!
Sierra Boggess?? you mean Sierra GODDESS
Sierra Boggess?? you mean Sierra GODDESS
From Christine to Ariel! I'm seriously starting to adore her!
Trust me, it's not hard to adore her! Namaste!
And she's so nice in person
It's actually from Ariel to Christine :)
she played Christine in las vegas before she played Ariel
SHE'S PERFECT. I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHAT TO DO.
SAME
OMG feels
"Sarah" Boggess is the original "Adele Dazeem"
ha!
Lmao
Vanessa Renee 😂😂
lol
Aw, those little kids mesmerized by her! So cute.
We all are but seeing the wonder in their eyes is worth it.
Am I the only one who thinks her tail is hilarious? lol
But seriously her voice is so clear and so beautiful! I also like her as Christine.
Why is her hair ALWAYS amazing
Victoria Pontmercy this is a wig

It's Sierra, not Sara!!!!
right? hahaha
My name is sarah and i was like wat😂
She said Sierra- twice! Listen again.
BOMB.COM actually at 1:42 she says “Sarah Boggess take it away!”
Damn she would have been perfect for the live action 2023 film the beautiful long vibrant red hair, the blue eyes and that beautiful voice. I wished Disney would've went this direction for the 2023 film instead.
That voice control
i come here after watching Phantom Of The Opera streaming.
She’s so talented! I can’t undestand how talented this lovely is! ♥️♥️♥️
She now popular because of Covid19 - Phantom Of the Opera Live Streaming on TH-cam - Other TH-cam recommendation videos.
She truly is a disney princessess
Gives me the emotional chills when I hear her sing.. You are the Best Sierra!!
Baby Sierra!! It was such a treat to see her in the Little Mermaid back in 2007.
It was my first show ever
Dumpling Simmer It was my second, but just as special
Makoto Tachibana Definetly
I love seeing the kid's faces! Also, Sierra's voice has REALLY matured from then to now. I just recently saw her as Rebekah in It Shoulda Been You.
This woman is amazing. Excellent.
Solo, Dressed in a tail, live audience, on TV, they get her name wrong and then... she just absolutely kills it...love her
this aired 10+ years ago. let that sink in
WHY THE HELL ARE THERE 64 DISLIKES? are people out of their mind? She's the most perfect Ariel, I love her so much!!!!!
Selene Melgar bc Jodie Benson will always be the perfect Ariel.
@@brianekay4149 no one can sing Little Mermaid songs like the original can, but hey, Sierra can come close second, and she even looks a lot like Ariel. If we are to have a live action movie of Little Mermaid, Sierra would be the perfect choice (but they already cast someone for it, so...).
She was perfect for the Live action. I can see the happines in children.
my queen *bows down*
It’s the tone man..... 😫😭 The tone is like a ten year old it’s so innocent but the clarity and control are world class 👌🏽
She's like walking down from a Disney animation. Too beautiful and perfect to be true!
Love her! Ariel, Christine....she can do anything..I can't wait to see her back as christine for POTO
You forgot Cosette and Fantine from Les Miserables! :)
Beautiful voice, beautiful face, and beautiful personality. She's everything!
What a brilliant repertoire by the performer and how heartwarming it is!
Those children’s faces have brought this tough old broad to tears. Hard to believe that they would be almost adults now.
Totally started crying. I hope to one day be as good as she is. Such a legendary actress and singer, and a total inspiration.
Literally crying. Sierra is so perfect 😍
I remember when I was that kid seeing this as my first shoe and being mesmerized and my love for theatre started. Broadway helps me through life and all my troubles.
She said “here is SARAH Boggess!”
I’ve watched this a thousand times and just noticed it today.
Wow.
This is still one of my favorite Broadway performances ever. So magical!
all the little girls watching her! awwwwwwww! so dang cute!
Wow, she is incredible! And so humble too! This is the first time that I have heard Sierra sing, she is very talented.
Sarah bahgess? Who is that?
***** *slow clap*
+SandraSaysStuff lol😂
Hello fellow Phan
she's playing Arrielle
She mispronounced her name, it's Sierra as in Sierra Madre Mountains. Sierra Boggess, she also has played Christine in Phantom of the Opera. She is phenomenal!!!
I just love how she brings such joy and emotion to each character she plays! She is such a good singer!
They cast her way to perfectly. It scary
Sierra Boggess is AMAZING! I saw her in London for Love Never Dies! She gave me goosebumps throughout the entire performance!
I love her!!! She rocks this role!!!
this song and her preformance brings tears to my eyes every time.... she's amazing:)
I love Sierra Boggess.
I love how they keep going back to little kids
It shows what a big impact she has, and everyone has, and its just so beautiful. GREAT JOB SIERRA! YOU ARE MY IDOL!

They jokingly called it somewhere that's wet
Sierra has always been so beautiful. I cannot stop staring at her face. And her voice sounds so sweet. I could listen to her talk and sing forever
She was perfect for the little mermaid live action film
She's amazing. Everytime I hear her I'm continuously impressed.
She called her Sara(h) -_- Her name is Sierra... Anyway I love her voice so much I get chills every time she sings.
My name is also sierra and I bothers me when sometimes people call me Sarah instead of sierra. -___-
her voice sends shivers down my spine! SHE'S AMAAZZINGG!
Sierra please come back as Ariel for the live action remake!!
Too bad she's not gonna do it, but we have Halle!! :-)
You can see the magic in her eyes when she sings, I just love her!
I would walk to New York from Seattle to see this
あまりにも本物のアリエルでめちゃ感動して涙出た😢Sierraだいすき
What a wonder gift this young woman has, beauty and talent in one package. She is just awesome, great discovery by Disney. Thank you for the post.
The little gir in 2:38 min!!!! I felt the same way!!!!!!!
Paola González Orozco
👁👄👁
So sweet voice.
I have an audition for Ariel on Tuesday! Wish me luck!
lily kate did you get the part?
She is amazing! She looks exactly like Ariel and her voice! Wow! Just perfect.
I admire those performers in broadway.
More like Sierra Goddess!
Who in the world are these people who disliked this video? Sierra is amazing and makes the perfect Ariel.
it bothers me when people say air-ee-elle rather than airy-elle (more fluidly with less accentuation on the ee sound)
She's so damn amazing
Me and my ex gf use to go out and sing karaoke. She would sing this song and it was amazing. she left me awhile ago but I still love her and think of her quite often and when missing her becomes to much to bare I listen to this.
Viviano Cuevas could you please tell me what the name of this song?thank you.
Viviano Cuevas I know that feeling, my ex and I are huge sierra boggess fans.

Im not crying IM NOT CRYING Sierrraaaaaaa
Update: still crying
Meg M literally loled :p
Sierra is out of this world! Btw , that little girl's face at 2:43 is why I do musical theatre . It's precious to be able to connect with an audience.🤗🥰
If I’d met Jodi Benson (or even Sierra) I probably would have blubbered too much and been incoherently telling her I love her!
Wow.. this was just beautiful! She has such a beautiful voice!! :)
This is what Disney should be not what they are now. The kids faces says it all. Fantastic performance.
This made me cryyyy favorite Disney princess forever😍😍

Tingles. Tingles everywhere. Wow.
she is just gorgeous! what a beautiful singer!
omg she DOES sound like ariel :)
Amazing! I got CHILLS. It was so adorable when they'd show the little kids smiling and getting all thrilled. That's all that matters.
Gurl I KNOW u didn't just call her Sarah!!
You know you can sing when you make someone cry. That was beautiful. I teared haha
03:45 those vocals tho 👌
The faces of the little girls and the people in the audience was amazing, that must just have made their days.

I like this better than Jodi Benson's version, I have to say...
Breathtaking
That was so adorable...
~:~
I love Sierra so much!!!!! So happy I got to meet her!
THIS is how you sing Part of your world. The live action version feels lacking for me. The high notes and belts.
HEAVENLY. Sierra is incredible. Can produce tears from this old middle aged lady. She is FAULTLESS
"You look JUST LIKE HER." O_O
She is everything that Ariel is. She is an amazing vocalist, and truly captured the essence of character.
