I remember meeting Samantha in the Cardiff millennium centre way back in 2011 when she was starring in Oliver. She's such an amazing singer who is so lovely in person
I couldn't get over how good the show was in every sense & despite not really being a theatre person myself, had to get all the way back down to London to see it one more time before it finished. Samantha was absolutely perfect at being Elsa but beyond that even manages to elevate this song to a truly epic piece. You just know this will never be surpassed!
lover her since she was on id do anything. really felt like she should have won, but i think tbh shes doing much bettter for not, she got seen and is doing roles suited for her. When they announced the live version of Beauty and the Beast I so wanted it to be her playing Belle, if she went for the role and didnt get it that would be a massive mistake made imho.
Many international performers try to Americanize themselves with musicals like these. I love how Samantha didn’t. She stage true to her culture as well as Elsa‘s character.
Also her upper range she has to mix, which sounds nasal pretty nasal and lacking power. Especially in that last notes "let the storm rage ON" and "the cold never bothered me "anywAY". She can totally get the note but its missing that umph you'd expect from that note. I was twice in west end now and saw her. It was just like in this video. Understandable when you have to sing this 4 times a weak, you'd not want to tear down your voice when you can barely get it. However her lower and head voices are great. Loved Dangerous to dream and Monster. Thats where she totally shined. I Do prefer Idinas and Willemijns Chest Belting technoqies on those high money notes.
She is wonderful, her voice is fantastic, this show is amazing, the cast is very beautiful! Congratulations to all!
I have seen her live twice in Frozen (West End), and she is fabulous! If you are considering watching it, watch it! The entire cast is amazing!! :)
West end London looks so much better than the Broadway version. They all stay true to the characters and Samantha nails it as Elsa!
I love the high notes 💙🤍💙🤍💙🤍
A Manx 🇮🇲girl, who’s become a true star of stage , but still has her feet firmly on the ground, well done Samantha….👍🇮🇲💪

The 1st Black Elsa!!! This is so important!!
😂
too shoutey.
idina must be furious
I shall look forward to your upload of you attempting this song.
Also: This is for the musical, not a film. It needs more projection on a stage.
@@bjorn2625 sadly I lost my male treble voice when I was head boy of a UK cathedral at age 14.
So probably can't now, You know,
Being 37yo.
Its the Musical version of the song, which is slightly different from the studio version.
Also her upper range she has to mix, which sounds nasal pretty nasal and lacking power. Especially in that last notes "let the storm rage ON" and "the cold never bothered me "anywAY". She can totally get the note but its missing that umph you'd expect from that note.
