Damn. Not only does she have the voice, but she also has the emotion too. She didn't rush it and took her time. All the while showing that amazing vocal range and power.
I've been a fan of Ragtime for most of my life but watching this made me feel like I was hearing this song for the first time. Such an incredible performance.
Saw this 4 times, was there with friends the night this was filmed. she truly brought the house down with this performance. We became friends during this production and honestly knowing her irl is just as inspiring as her character is. If youre ever lucky enough to get any kind of advice from her, take it. She knows what she's doing, always.
Well DAMN. this is the example I will now use when describing how to actually act the emotions of anguish and desperation but still somehow hit every note absolutely perfectly AND powerfully I mean holy shit give this woman ALL the roles!!
I saw this production twice - she was incredible. I wish they somehow could have secured rights to record a cast recording for this production - the entire cast was phenomenal - was one of the most well done pieces of theatre I ever got to experience
I played flute1/piccolo in the U.K. premier of this musical and I almost had to be replaced since I kept crying/sobbing my heart out during this song. It hurt me so much. The theme is so dark. But it was done so well here.
Nicole I'll say this again...your performance is outstanding...& if you read the negative comments about your performance...just ignore them ...you know how people hate on someone else success...do you boo...Live You Gurllll😘😉❤🌺
I listened to Ariah' covering this for, like, half an hour before I fully listened to the lyrics, went "Well, that's kind of sad...I must know what they are exactly" so I looked up the lyrics and went "This *IS* sad!" but then I saw this in my recommendations and now I am like *"WHY MUST THIS BE SUCH A SAD SONG!?!?"* Thank you for filming this!
Just like when I first heard you sing AT LAST I knew you would go places. The dislikes are not worthy of the performance. A comment with critique would be better than to just not like this. Keep it up Nicole we need more of you. I loved it. W.
I first heard this on a "Great Women of Broadway" CD i found at a thrift store, & I got CHILLS the first time I heard it! So ofc I had the see the play that went with it & omg this DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!

Is anymore of this show available to watch? I am a homeschool mom and theatre nut. In planning our American History unit this year I always intended to try and find a production of Ragtime to take my sons to see. Then....2020. This is such a great rendition! I'd love to see more!
Ooh... Daddy played piano, Played it very well. Music from those hands could Catch you like a spell. He could make you love him 'Fore the tune was done. You have your daddy's hands. You are your daddy's son. Ooh... Daddy never knew That you were on your way. He had other ladies And other tunes to play. When he up and left me, I just up and run. Only thing in my head- You were your daddy's son. Couldn't hear no music, Couldn't see no light. Mama, she was frightened, Crazy from the fright. Tears without no comfort, Screams without no sound.

Mama can't forget him. Don't suppose I will. God wants no excuses. I have only one: You had your daddy's hands. Forgive me. You were your daddy's son.
LMAO no way!! Audra would be proud of this performance, not jealous! Only people who would dislike are the snobby Audra stans that don't think anyone will ever be as good as her!
She has a very good belt and good natural tone. However, I really would have liked her to keep her placement the same through ie not going dark all the time
Damn. Not only does she have the voice, but she also has the emotion too. She didn't rush it and took her time. All the while showing that amazing vocal range and power.
I've been a fan of Ragtime for most of my life but watching this made me feel like I was hearing this song for the first time. Such an incredible performance.
Joashhh- I love the show, was in it as a part of the teen’s ensemble at the Hobby Center in Houston just this spring.
same
The closest any actress will get to the amazing level of Audra. Fantastic performance!
@Rex84 La Chanze had the best emotion. But Audra had the best overall performance.
Amina Faye had both vocals and acting chops. Audra would’ve been so proud of her
yep
Check out Aisha Jackson's rendition
WOW!!!😢 AWESOME and moving performance.

absolutely brilliant . get her on broadway . this woman needs a Tony
I saw this production twice - she was incredible. I wish they somehow could have secured rights to record a cast recording for this production - the entire cast was phenomenal - was one of the most well done pieces of theatre I ever got to experience

Who sung during that performance
I saw this production and Your Daddy’s Son will never sound the same again after her showstopping performance of the song 🙌🏻🙌🏻
When I clicked this I didn’t know it was from the show I attended. This has made my life cause she killed it💜
Absolutely groundbreakingly gorgeous. The emotion she provoke was so genuine and overwhelming. Perfect.
HOW does this not have a million views omg this is insanely good
I spend a lot of time watching musical theatre videos and I think this is my favourite performance I have ever seen. Just incredible!
It @2:41 the guy whispering oh Lord for me!😂😂 Oh Lord indeed this was for the Gods!!!🔥👏👏👏👏💯💪💪🥰
Nicole I'll say this again...your performance is outstanding...& if you read the negative comments about your performance...just ignore them ...you know how people hate on someone else success...do you boo...Live You Gurllll😘😉❤🌺
Your rendition of this song brought me to tears!!! You are amazing in every way. The emotion, the timing, the audacity!! 😭
Awww I went Arts High School with her. Also with Micheal B Jordan! Thank you Newark for these amazing talents
Oh my the overwhelming sorrow in her voice! 😭😭😭
ABSOLUTELY PHENOMENAL!!!! I JUST SCREAMED AT MY PHONE!!!! SAAAAAAANG!!!!!!
I have liked this song for years but this brought me in the moment
WOW. I don’t think anybody can do what she does with this song! Her voice is out of this world 🌎✨✨✨
She’s incredible. Jesus.

Thank you so much 🥹🥹🥹
@@NicoleVanessaOrtizyou are so so amazing. I hope you read all the comments people left as motivation to never stop what you do
The audience member wiping her tears away at the end says it all…

This is one of my favorite songs ever. And this was so beautiful
There are no words for how amazing this performance is. Just wow.
I would give anything to see the full performance of this show!!! Love the vaudeville concept!
That was in a word, outstanding 😮
oh my god this woman is a legend.
Just like when I first heard you sing AT LAST I knew you would go places. The dislikes are not worthy of the performance. A comment with critique would be better than to just not like this. Keep it up Nicole we need more of you. I loved it. W.
Best version I’ve heard of this song since the original
Outstanding talent. This was mesmerizing.
Absolutely breathtaking.
OK this is such an interesting take on this song
Most beautiful and emotional version I've heard... made me bawl like a baby

This is amazing. Keep on rocking, Nicole!

Holy Hell. My tear ducts just exploded in awe.
That. Was. Amazing. Best by far. Hands down. (And I love me some Audra and LaChanze!)
Very well done. Love the set and production level also.

I first heard this on a "Great Women of Broadway" CD i found at a thrift store, & I got CHILLS the first time I heard it! So ofc I had the see the play that went with it & omg this DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!
Thanks to Nicole. Journey on!

Daddy played piano
Played it very well
Music from those hands could
Catch you like a spell
He could make you love him
'Fore the tune was done
You have your daddy‘s hands
You are your daddy's son
ダディはピアノを弾いていた
とても上手に弾いていた
その手で奏でる音楽は
魔術のように私の心を掴んだ
まだ曲が出来上がらないうちから
ふと恋に落ちてしまったほどよ
ダディにそっくりな手をしてるのね
あなたはダディの息子
Daddy never knew
That you were on your way
He had other ladies
And other tunes to play
When he up and left me
I just up and run
Only thing in my head
You were your daddy's son
ダディは何も知らない
あなたが生まれてくることさえ
他の女性達や音楽を操るので
頭がいっぱい
私を置き去りにした日
私は走り出した
唯一頭にあったのは
あなたはダディの息子
Couldn't hear no music
Couldn't see no light
Mama, she was frightened
Crazy from the fright
Tears without no comfort
Screams without no sound
Only darkness and pain
The anger and pain
The blood and the pain
I buried my heart in the ground
In the ground
When I buried you in the ground
音楽も耳に入らず
光も目に入らず
ママは恐怖に襲われ
狂いそうになった
慰めようのない涙
音のない叫び
そこにあったのは暗闇と痛みだけ
怒りと痛み
血と痛み
私の心を土に埋めた日は
あなたも土に埋めた
Daddy played piano
Bet he's playin' still
Mama can't forget him
Don't suppose I will
God wants no excuses
I have only one
You had your daddy's hands
Forgive me
You were your daddy's son
ダディはピアノを弾いていた
きっとまだどこかで弾いている
ママは彼が忘れられないの
一生忘れない
神様は言い訳なんか受け入れてくれない
けれど一つだけあるわ
あなたはダディにそっくりな手をしてた
許して
あなたはダディの息子だった

Incredible performance!!!!
a performance has never made me cry, but this, this brought out my tears
God, I love crying to a good musical number.
SO SO beautiful!
WARNING DO NOT WATCH AT WORK. YOU WILL CRY LIKE A LITTLE BABY.
Too late. Fuck..
Saaaame shiiit. Sitting in my work van, about to go into a house for a job and my eyes are swollen now! Haha
Broadway revival WHEN?
If they could have taken this entire production to Broadway it would have slayed - so freaking amazing
So. Stinking. Good. I still like Audra the best, but then again, this is still a crazy close second.
Amazing! BRAVO!!!
Chills!
Aşşşşırı iyi ! Very very very well done! Congratulations! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️

Ooh...
Daddy played piano,
Played it very well.
Music from those hands could
Catch you like a spell.
He could make you love him
'Fore the tune was done.
You have your daddy's hands.
You are your daddy's son.

WOAHHHH

SIIIINNNNGGGGGG
IS THIS THE ORG KEY?!?!?
Makiah Cross yes. But she’s belting rather than Audra’s falsetto/mix
Спасибо 🙏 У вас потрясающий голос и талант !
O.m.g.
😱😱😱
Jesus.
What is this costume?
I tried to ignore it too. It's like a mix of old pieces from Jekyll & Hyde and Pirate Queen had a bastard child.
Nice I’m the 69th comment
Such talent but.....does anyone sing live anymore?
Well.. I mean,.
The 9 dislikes on this thread are all from Audra
LMAO no way!! Audra would be proud of this performance, not jealous! Only people who would dislike are the snobby Audra stans that don't think anyone will ever be as good as her!
😂😂😂😂😂
She has a very good belt and good natural tone. However, I really would have liked her to keep her placement the same through ie not going dark all the time
