I was in an international singing course, where this example was used to show ''belting'' in its varieties. I, as the only dutch guy in the course, was so proud of our Willemijn
I just gotta say it:
"Ik lach om zwaartekracht" is actually a really accurate translation.
I speak all those languages and she is just the best ever! She is Elpaha
Ik ook, ich auch, me too
Thank you Frozen and my interest in languages for introducing me to this amazing woman. This is just incredible.
Ditto to that.
Same!
Yay! Another Wicked/Frozen/Taylor Swift fan! : )
You are my new favorite person. ;)
Awesome! Have you been to any Taylor Swift concerts or seen Wicked? I've been to two of Taylor's concerts and saw Wicked about a year ago.
This is literally the best version I've ever heard, and its live which makes it even better!♥♥
STOP, JUST DON'T
Idina....
Right
Seems like this song was written for her 😊 definetly the best Elphaba
Oh my god....she's divine. I can't think of any other word right now. *clicks replay button*
Oh my God she's amazing! I knew she was good but THIS good!? Excuse me while I book tickets to see her in London!
I saw her last night. Spectacular. If you get the chance, GO.
Yes, go if you can. She's truly brilliant! I saw her a couple weeks ago.
ThirdTwin3 she's back in London now! missed her in 2014 cos she was ill but I'm seeing her tonight 😍
Pete Kemp I saw her a few weeks ago she has an incredible talent and voice!
shadow dashie Yep I went to see her too and she was incredible. Met her afterwards at. stage door :)
I have listened to this version like 5 times already… and am about to hit replay again! Love love love this version so so much.
Wicked is 13 years old and this is still my favorite version of this song of all time.
During the verse she sounds kinda mysterious, like she's using only 10% of her power, and then when she goes full power later on she sounds like an E guitar. Awesome woman.
I might be able to only understand the English, but it's amazing! Love trying to sing along to Dutch and German, and sounding nothing like it :P I'll leave that to Willemijn
I only understand English and German and if I concentrate and want to a bit of the dutch bc German and dutch share similarities. But it is way more funny if you don't, really😂
IKR LMAAAAAO
Absolutely amazing! I have such respect for this woman.
The riff on 'allein' kills me every time! Willemijn is so breathtaking
got tears in my eyes, omg.... Saw her live in Stuttgart, it was amazing....This remembered me on her fantastic voice :)
Its funny I understand all the phrases omdat ik duits engels en nederlands haben in der Schule.
Natasja Hölscher I speak English quite well, German a bit worse (mutch worse) and no Nederlands, but I understand it because it is similar to German
alexandr pinchuk same except for German being my mother tongue, I don't speak English that well😂
It would be cooler if the maker of this multilanguage video did 3:13 - 3:25 like
And nobody in all of Oz
Geen toovenaar, geen vrouw, geen man
Erreicht mich oder fängt mich ein
alexandr pinchuk Well, the maker of this multi-language kinda is Willemijn herself.
alexandr pinchuk this was performed in one studio all at once, it's not clips cut together :p
It might get weird bc she may repeat the exact same sentence. For example:
German: Ich schließ meine augen (i close my eyes) /it's time to trust my instincts
Dutch: Ogen dicht (close my eyes)/ close my eyes
English: And leap
It's even more weird in as long as you're mine tho
You'd get "Just for this moment, dit ene moment" (this moment), cos they switched the sentences, it's "maar nu zijn we samen, dit ene moment" which means "but now we are together, just for this moment" (poor translation I know I promise it works in dutch)
It works in german though cos they have translated it to "für ein paar Studen, solang ich dich hab" which is "for a few hours, as long as I have got you"
Ikr
She is amazing!
The benefit of knowing all these languages is if you feel better singing a certain vowel sound (or even a certain word) at certain parts of the song, you can alternate the languages to get the best sound! To me, it would be a lot easier sustaining "ein" instead of "down."
3:15 i love how she strung this line and the next one together in a way that actually made sense. it's like one long sentence where the speaker code-switched halfway through.
She's amazing! This is the first time be heard her voice. I'm gonna miss Louise so much but she'll be amazing!
She is just the best! I saw her on my first Wicked show and I've never looked back!
Lol *amazing ending which can't be described in words*. So true. XD
I'm like attached to this and I keep watching it over and over and over and over and over, etc.
Oh.
she's literally the most perfect human being like i really cannot.
I’m so blessed I saw her live!
Multilingual queen!!!! Willemijn is such an inspiration. Videos like this are making me love her more every single day ♥
What a strong voice I'd like to see her perform the part live
It is live!
Sie hat ja ne fantastische Stimme!
Heel NL is trots op je, Willemijn!
Para mí la mejor Elphaba del mundo que Idina Menzel ni que nada, tengo que reconocer que está mujer a de ser de otro planeta con esa voz tan IMPRESIONANTE que tiene. Ella es simplemente ESPECTACULAR.
Goosebumps... Goosebumps everywhere!
Amazing, simply amazing!
Got chills...nearly cried😭😭😭😭
She is amazing...
Waow, wat een kracht wat een stem!
rtl heeft een stukje uitgezonden van een amerikaans radiostation (siriusxm), willemijn was daar voor een interview een heeft toen deze versie opgenomen
Es la perfección, y además hermosisisima, la amooooooooooooooooooo
No es humana, o es un ángel, o algo, pero no es de este mundo, la amoooooooooooooo NO HAY CANTANTE MEJOR QUE MI WILLEMINJ
Wow!!!! super gut zussammengeschnitten. i like any languages! so nice
She's amazing!
Fuck this is beautiful
Anyone else singing the english version while she's singing the other languages? haha seriously, though, this is probably one of the most impressive things I've seen.
Well she did the West End and Broadway of Wicked.
Sie spricht Elsa in die Eiskönigin 😄
I wish there were tracks like this for the other songs, not just Defying Gravity.
I want to see her perform something live
Awesome!!!
As the switches get to a higher frequency she sings with an english accent in german and dutch in the first two words😂
No hate, just pointing out, I couldn't do any better
Unfassbar gut!
love this so much! Is there an official release ?
Amazing// wonderful ,,
I have gooseskin.
I Like Willemijn.
She is one of the best Elphabas!
The trilingual QUEEN! 🥹
she is so awesome ... she should play elphaba in the movie they want do
Is dit die versie van RTL? u heeft denk ik de BackingTrack er achter gezet? wel leuk! zocht er al een tijdje na. super! misschien de backtrack iets harder?
Only thing that could make this better is if she were born below the big rivers
i understand thé english and dutch and some german
Dank je!
Wow, this is amazing! Where is this record from?
What are the three languages?
dutch, german and, English
I just came to the same sad conclusion =(
forever my elphaba 💗
What happened to all of WILLEMIJN Verkaik Defying Gravity, and The Wizard And I videos are all deleted?!?!?!?
Wow, bijna eng zo goed. Go Willemijn!
I'm fluent in german and english and I'm able to understand dutch a bit when its similar to german. But what the hell is zwaartekracht supposed to mean?
Zwaartekracht is gravity in English
Wow....trilingual!
Where did you get the english recording?
This isn't a mashup of three different recordings. It's all one, and was taken as-is from a radio interview where she sang the song using bits and pieces from all three languages. I know that because I have the full interview. :)
DontKicktheBritV2 can you upload that full interview???
Here you go. I've made it downloadable in case it gets taken down or something. :)
soundcloud.com/molly-pfaff/interview-with-willemijn
DontKicktheBritV2 thank you! wow you're amazing! haha
taycro
No problem! Let me know if that doesn't work. Enjoy! :)
where did you get the dutch and the english version?
Bae, this is the trilingual version. She did this live in her studio. She is simply talented enough to slip effortlessly between languages.
If you search 'Wicked Zwaartekracht' ypuan find the dutch version here on youtube, i hope that helps! :)
So frei und schwerelos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
can someone please tell me the name of the song in German? 😍
Frei und Schwerenlos
I kinda know sorta what she's saying in dutch, but like comparing the English and German lyrics is so funny lmao
*i I've
best elphaba in the world, proud to be dutch!
clever
I agree with you¡ SHE IS ELPHABA¡
👍
I hate this, because she really is damn good and all...but every time I hear her sing in English, it sounds like she's got her cheeks in her teeth or something, because it sounds just slightly off.
You don't think singing such high notes in THREE different languages is easy?
I'm Dutch and it's very difficult for us to talk English perfectly. I get the best grades in class with English but when i speak it i simply sound retarded :/
It's when she's singing English with an American accent. If you look up one of her performances in England she uses an English accent and it sounds more open. I think it's cause Americans have very nasally accents, including mine.
It's called an accent. Everyone has one.
And this isn't her best American performance
not one of the best, just the best :P
