Every singer always tries to copy the opera version... lea done it her broadway version. She was taught and trained not to just sing but to express the song the way it was supposed to be. It is also the reason why she is an awarded actress in the Philippine movies.
I feel like the audience doesn't know how to react because she sings so beautifully at the same it conveys sadness. Leah can deliver emotions thru music...just look their faces. Leah is a one of kind singer
The song was being performed at a Memorial Day service broadcasted on PBS to honor the memories of those who gave their lives fighting for the USA, along with honoring the veterans who served and continue to serve.
Agree!! Like other great singers, she OWNS a song the second she INTERPRETS it. Sinatra, Andrews, Grobin, the Three Tenors, Il Divo - in their fields, they sing a song and uncover its inmost soul and beauty to us -
LEA SALONGA'S RENDITION OF THIS IMMORTAL SONG IS A GIFT FROM GOD ALMIGHTY. BRINGING LOVE, PEACE AND JOY TO THOSE DEPARTED LOVE ONES AND MILLIONS OF OUR HEROES. 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🙏🙏🙏💞💞💞
wow she just sung it with so much feeling and emotions, great singer! some singer will not think of the occasion but wud rather belt the song for herself to shine, but not for lea she always prioritize to convey the message that makes people relate.
i've heard this song covered a million times on youtube, and this is the first time tears were flowing. i'm sure it had a lot to do with the occasion, but, it's most likely because she sang it with so much emotion, and the message of the song really came through.
The Legendary Broadway Diva Ms. Leah Salonga that when she sings crystal clear and a real story teller no run a rounds pure singing coming from the heart.. not irritating in the ears.. indeed she is one of a kind plus she is very humble this woman deserve the International Mainstream Exposure... ❤️
EVERY Filippino I have met describes Mrs. Salonga as the pride of their country and listening to her it is obviously truthful. She is also such a great representative on the Voices of the Kids. I also had a Martial Arts instructor who stated in the 2nd world war the Fillipino were allies that NEVER disappointed. While I could never get the instructor to talk much he went on for a full hour praising these great people. Such talent. Watch Voices of the kids with her, it is so worth seeing her and the other talented children she judges. AWESOME!!
For this particular occasion, this song being sung by ONE person was more appropriate. It sounded like a hymn normally sung in church. Had it been sung by a duet, there could have been some distraction because of 2 voices sounding like MORE of a PERFORMANCE to get applause than a REAL PRAYER SET TO MUSIC. Very emotional delivery.
Her appearance here, her Via Dolorosa performance with the military choir and just recently with the Tabernacle Choir, will give organizers of future memorable events to enlist Lea's talent for her to appear in their special events.
Seeing the clips of the families missing their loved ones, seeing the sacrifice the soldiers made gave me a renewed appreciation for what they've given us.
Lea Salonga-- Broadway legend !
One of the great talented women in this planet Lea Salonga🥰❤️🙏🙏🙏
Same here...feeling so proud of her bringing the Philippines such honor and pride. 😮👏
Every singer always tries to copy the opera version... lea done it her broadway version. She was taught and trained not to just sing but to express the song the way it was supposed to be. It is also the reason why she is an awarded actress in the Philippine movies.
The moment she was announced as "Broadway Legend" i got goosebumps... Im so proud to be a Filipino
Check out the new movie coming out "Easter sunday"
so beautifully rendered ad always. I love you Lea, so inspirational,
Me too. Am proud to be Filipino
Much needed after May’s halalan results 😅✌️☮️
I love you lea your The Best
I liked how she took the 3rd verse up 1/3, then brought it back to its original key. She’s got a range to die for.
Amen! Tapos her ethereal way of lifting puso’s with her dreamy control. 🇺🇸💛🇵🇭
We always be proud to Ms Lea as a filipina
My favorite singer with class and passion in every song She sang.
More than her impeccable control, she conveys the message of the song clearly.
Should hear her version of Don't Cry for Me Argentenia. it's like it's her saying goodbye. so moving.
B lol
One of my favorite singer LEA SALONGA
I feel like the audience doesn't know how to react because she sings so beautifully at the same it conveys sadness. Leah can deliver emotions thru music...just look their faces. Leah is a one of kind singer
Well they reacted appropriately. It’s a prayer so they don’t need to shout or what.
The song was being performed at a Memorial Day service broadcasted on PBS to honor the memories of those who gave their lives fighting for the USA, along with honoring the veterans who served and continue to serve.
omg what do you want them to do on such a sad moment??? geezz these people
We don't have to clap our hands after an opening prayer
Bravo! Lea Salonga! Still the best Filipino singer for me!
Perhaps best asian singer as well. No idea lol
One of the best singers we enjoy at present! If not THE BEST! Internationally! GOD's gift to us!
Anything Lea sings becomes the definitive performance!
Agree!! Like other great singers, she OWNS a song the second she INTERPRETS it. Sinatra, Andrews, Grobin, the Three Tenors, Il Divo - in their fields, they sing a song and uncover its inmost soul and beauty to us -
Lea can change her voice from a young Disney Princess to a matured skilled performer. 🏆🥰
I'm so proud to be a Filipino. Thanks Lea Salonga.

What a brilliant performer
i've heard this song covered a million times on youtube, and this is the first time tears were flowing. i'm sure it had a lot to do with the occasion, but, it's most likely because she sang it with so much emotion, and the message of the song really came through.
