That part broke me! This is my absolute favorite song and not many Elphabas can pull off such raw emotion and she took it over the top! I really felt her pain!
She can sing like it's a rock concert but she doesn't perform like it's a rock concert, she actually ACTS! She's acting through the entire song and that's why she is AMAZING
It kinda reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. She had at least four distinct accents in her vocals- Dutch, German, French and English. It's simply beautiful how Willeminj carries her own sound to it.
I love her intonations. She holds the note at the end of each line and clips some of the words mid sentence. It actually sounds more like natural speech!
It’s actually her head voice belting uses mixed voice but puts power behind it. As it resonates in the pharynx, have air power keeps it consistent with chest voice
I love that opening NO after the Fiyero cry!!! So emotional and intense. The frustration. Eden actually created that when she took over fulltime on Broadway!! So amazing that every little detail, adlib bit an Elphaba creates is passed on to future Green Girls!!!
Have totally fallen in love with this Musical. Have seen and heard lots of Elphebas on line but Willemijn wins hands down. Thank you for giving us this precious gift, an amazing woman and talent. Must have watched this clip a million times in a short time and my favourite song in the whole show. There are moments in life that stay with you forever, discovering Willemijn and this great Musical is one of them! Thank you, thank you, thank you xxx
Okay lemme just say her acting is ON POINT!! She nails this character in all aspects and has so much to offer!!! her voice is one of the best in this role and she is able to do it all healthily and make her voice last!! She also did it ok not one, not two, but three languages!! ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING!!!
Willemijn's "No Good Deed" is to this day my favourite one. I vividly remember the first time I heard her sing it live - back in the day when she was in the German production. Just thinking of it gives me goosebumps. There is such an energy she manages to put into this, I can't even find the words to describe it. I was lucky enough to see her in this role more times than I can count, and I really miss her.
You two are so lucky! I'm working my way to becoming ANYTHING like her! If I can sing half as good by the peak of my career, I'll have done well. My dream is to be Elphie - because of Willemijn!!
I will NEVER forgive myself that between 2007 and 2010 Willemijn was performing as Elphaba a mere hour away from where I live and I FCKING DIDN‘T go to see the show... And now I’ll never see her live again. It literally hurts physically 😭
I have a question about this song, and the spell she is casting. Fiyero is turned to a scarecrow because of her spell, but she didn't finished the spell. Do you think that if she had finished it Fiyero will be a simple scarecrow, not living at all ? Edit : I asked Catherine Charlebois who played Nessa for a few years in both Broadway and National Tour, and she said that Elphaba did finished the spell but she just continues to repeat it again and again !
I love Willemijn but I've heard her singing this song perfectly in 3 different languages and I don't get why this one sounds so off. Too much acting? Too much variations I'm not used to? I don't know
Which one’s better? Idina - like Willemijn - comment Place your vote and let’s see who wins! (You can always do both) P.S. if you comment Idina it will be counted as Willemijn (sorry!)
Your entitled to your own opinion! I have nothing against that, but I have to say I can too and definitely disagreeing on that point. Why? This was the one video that made me understand the lyrics of No Good Deed for the first time, the American accents are too slang’ish sometimes and it’s almost impossible to understand. I’m not sure if it’s the way I learnt the English language, but it for sure differs for many of us and that’s alright. 😊
First thing I like about this: How emotional she was with the ‘NO!’
Second: That FIYERO riff was awesome!
Third: The entire video
That "no!" after the first Fiyero!! Holy shit
I know! It adds a bigger punch of emotion! I love it
She lived that line
yes! i looove it! an no one else does it, if I am not mistaken, it's her signature "no" :-)
That part broke me! This is my absolute favorite song and not many Elphabas can pull off such raw emotion and she took it over the top! I really felt her pain!
drumrgrl4him09 according to me the only other Elphaba who actually lived the song(apart from Willemijn) was Donna Vivino
She can sing like it's a rock concert but she doesn't perform like it's a rock concert, she actually ACTS! She's acting through the entire song and that's why she is AMAZING
Zw35
Her accent actually suits the role pretty good imo it's sharper than american or british accents
Elifnaz Sınav oh yes it does
It's somewhere in between Dutch and British
I LOVE it really
Orchishma Mukherjee she's German (or at least she usually sings elphaba and Elsa in German) And I love her 😍
@@mooselover5 she's Dutch
It kinda reminds me of Audrey Hepburn. She had at least four distinct accents in her vocals- Dutch, German, French and English. It's simply beautiful how Willeminj carries her own sound to it.
mooselover5 she’s Dutch
The way she said wicked oh my sweet lord
Rainbow Umbrella 😍😍😍
where did she said wicked then?
@@Jongen. 2:49
I love her intonations. She holds the note at the end of each line and clips some of the words mid sentence. It actually sounds more like natural speech!
Her “I am wicked” at 2:50 gives me chills everytime
She is Elphaba. Everything about her is Elphaba. How she sings, acts, moves. Everything
EXACTLY! She doesn't play Elphie SHE IS ELPHIE and THAT is the DIFFERENCE!
No one has or ever will sing this role better.
did you hear that effortless transition from belt to mix at 1:37 she's amazing
I love that part. I tear up every time.
It’s actually her head voice belting uses mixed voice but puts power behind it. As it resonates in the pharynx, have air power keeps it consistent with chest voice
From belt to headvoice*. But still amazing!
No
My all time favorite Elphaba. She really understood the character, her No Good Deed is unmatched, soooo much feeling !
I'm obsessed with her "ever again"
I love that opening NO after the Fiyero cry!!! So emotional and intense. The frustration.
Eden actually created that when she took over fulltime on Broadway!!
So amazing that every little detail, adlib bit an Elphaba creates is passed on to future Green Girls!!!
she is literally the reason i got into musical theatre. ugh i love her so much
Have totally fallen in love with this Musical. Have seen and heard lots of Elphebas on line but Willemijn wins hands down.

Meredith Bigham-Lloyd I’m addict to the musical I will walk around my house and randomly scream Fiyero I might be sent to a Phych ward soon
Easily the best Elphaba to date. On every continent.
Okay lemme just say her acting is ON POINT!! She nails this character in all aspects and has so much to offer!!! her voice is one of the best in this role and she is able to do it all healthily and make her voice last!! She also did it ok not one, not two, but three languages!! ABSOLUTELY MIND BLOWING!!!
The voice, the acting and her look, for me she is the perfect Elphaba how I expected her❤❤❤
The side transition between notes on the last ‘Agaaaaaaiiiin!!’ 😍😍😍😍 just WOW 😱😍
Willemijn the absolute queen . 🔥🙌🏽😍
Willemijn's "No Good Deed" is to this day my favourite one. I vividly remember the first time I heard her sing it live - back in the day when she was in the German production.

Same here. With missing her, and having seen her many times.
You two are so lucky! I'm working my way to becoming ANYTHING like her! If I can sing half as good by the peak of my career, I'll have done well. My dream is to be Elphie - because of Willemijn!!
I normally prefer her singing over her acting but she did this amazingly
You ever listen to a performance so good you start crying
It do be like that 🥲
That vibrato on the word "urges." OOOOOWWEEEE!!!
Jessica Vosk’s BIGGEST FAN 2:30
I was drinking water and I think I almost choked honestly. I’m in love with that choice
The 'n' on 'attention' at 2:10 😍
My favorite part😍😍😍
This is my favorite Elphaba. ❤️ stunning.
That “No!” Made me really feel for her.
I’m in love with her as Elphaba. 😭
Oh my God the final "Again"!!! Absolutely amazing ❤️
All rise for the national anthem sung by a freaking god
Musical Freak *goddess :)
LITERALLY
THIS VIDEO IS A BLESSING
Jedesmal wenn ich Willemijn singen höre bekomm ich eine Gänsehaut,,huuuiihhh,
Ach wie gut dass niemand weiß ................. XD lieben gruß ins Märchenland.
Rumpel stilzchen ich auch ☺😍
Honestly a Tony got this performance ALONE
I will NEVER forgive myself that between 2007 and 2010 Willemijn was performing as Elphaba a mere hour away from where I live and I FCKING DIDN‘T go to see the show... And now I’ll never see her live again. It literally hurts physically 😭
Same but my problem was that I was 7 year old so my parents wouldn’t let me because they thought I might get scared 🥺❤️
@@noellevalentineplatell Well, I was 20 and I have absolutely no excuse 😭
By far one of the best elphabas
the first step in my morning routine is to listen to this
I am blown away at the very ending note!
That's pure perfection 😍
...I think I want to see Willemijn play Evita. She could give Patti LuPone a good run for her money.
I second this!
Yes
Oop
She did a some songs of it: th-cam.com/video/LHzAVLv0AuI/w-d-xo.html
Wow, she blew me away! Thanks for sharing!
I like her accent since it makes her different compared to everyone else who have American accents🖤
this made me sob omg she’s so precious and talented
Damn i keep coming back to this video
OMG her flip in 1:39 was AMAZING
One word... QUEEN.
Our QUEEN!!!
I have a question about this song, and the spell she is casting. Fiyero is turned to a scarecrow because of her spell, but she didn't finished the spell. Do you think that if she had finished it Fiyero will be a simple scarecrow, not living at all ?
Edit : I asked Catherine Charlebois who played Nessa for a few years in both Broadway and National Tour, and she said that Elphaba did finished the spell but she just continues to repeat it again and again !
*jaw drop*
In the book, it was just a rumor. Fiyero died and so did Elphaba
Hipster Madara it is heavily implied that elphie doesn’t die at the end, As for Fiyero, I think you’re correct.
Hipster Madara Fiyero died it's sure ! But Elphaba I'm not sure because they said that the wicked witch didn't get out ... yet
Maybe that's the reason why the Scarecrow doesn't have a brain...
HER DELIVERY ON "no good deep goes unpunished, no act of charity..." THATS SHIT IS QUALITY!!!!!!!!!
I can't stop watching it💚
Moments that left me speechless:
1:05
1:55
2:18
2:49
2:59
She is an icon 🌠
She is the best 💚
Thank you so much for this 💚
That was Insane!!!!!!
That "ever again ...." is so cool, beautiful
One of the absolute greatest 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼💜💙💜
Omg. 💚 She's the best Elphaba!
this Is so beautiful
Amazing video! Thank you!!!!
Her and jessica are absolutely amazing ♥️
I saw her live in 2017 and she was amazing
i dont think there was a moment the entire video where i didnt have chills
EPIC CAPTURE!!!!
Queen 💚
Es ESPECTACULAR.
Ella es espectacular.
People who start clapping before the piece is finnished should be escorted out the theatre immediatly lol
My favourite Elphaba
I love it
favorite elphaba by far
do you have also popular and defying gravity?
WHOA elphaba lives, really felt it all here.
Amo D+ essa música
Best performance I've ever seen (and I don't mean of this song in particular)
GOSH would you be willing to trade the whole show if you have if? I'll literally give you anything wow
I literally have 114 bootlegs and I will give you all of them 100% serious
How do you trade shows?!!!
i have the audio
I need this too
Hannah L please do u have them for google drive??
Was that on Broadway? I saw it there in 2017 with Kara Lindsay as Galinda, but Willemijn Verkaik did not play Elphie...alas...
I think the Elphie with Kara Lindsay is Jackie Burns. Jackie is AWESOME!
Andre Furmanov i think this is London
She was Elphaba on Broadway too
Brilliant acting
Was this on Halloween or earlier?
holy SHIT
wooooo esta cañona =)
wooow that glide 3:12
niemand doet het zoals zij
☺️👍💕.
Dat E5 tho
Which production is this?
Nick Cortazzo London
Wicked on I think Broadway!
I love Willemijn but I've heard her singing this song perfectly in 3 different languages and I don't get why this one sounds so off.
Too much acting? Too much variations I'm not used to? I don't know
No wait... no? Looks at title. Oh
Which one’s better?
Idina - like
Willemijn - comment
Place your vote and let’s see who wins! (You can always do both)
P.S. if you comment Idina it will be counted as Willemijn (sorry!)
Willemijn. Always!
Obvs willemijn
One count for Willemijn 💚💚💚💚
Willemijn forever!
Both :]
Her accent is very strong. It´s hard to understand her English
Your entitled to your own opinion! I have nothing against that, but I have to say I can too and definitely disagreeing on that point. Why? This was the one video that made me understand the lyrics of No Good Deed for the first time, the American accents are too slang’ish sometimes and it’s almost impossible to understand. I’m not sure if it’s the way I learnt the English language, but it for sure differs for many of us and that’s alright. 😊
Unpopular opinion. I find this too fragmented. Prefer Danna Paola
Eh, I'd say a 5/10. She doesn't hold a candle to Idina Menzel.
SergeTheBlerge she’s amazing. 10/10
I’d say 8/10 but your right she’s defo not Idina
I actually prefer her/most elphabas to Idina! I still love Idina tho
But can Idina Menzel still belt like this? After doing the 2,000+ shows that Willemijn did? In three languages??
Thought not.
if i was a kid and didn't know the show i'd be scared to death watching this lmao she is AMAZING
I'm obsessed with her "ever again"
