    This is the cleanest version ever! Ms. Lea has always been superb in her every performance. And she was pregnant during this one. She doesn't make "daya" in singing. Just PURE. Doesn't shout for high notes. No way we can ever compare her to other singers who shout and overpush their voices. Her voice is magical. She is PERFECT!

    Man, it takes a lot of guts and strength from a professional singer to sing something for her fans that doesn't fit her voice. She made it her own and made it suit her even though you could tell when the song was challenging for her voice.

      Yesseniayaya Broadway/musical songs don't come with a "single version". That's why Idina Menzel had to adapt it (or have someone do it for her) so that she could sing it without Kristin Chenoweth.

    Good lord, no matter how many videos I watch of Lea sing I am always so in awe of her voice and there is just no one who I can think of that I would rather listen to over and over and over again like I can her. Sure there are some that have great voices (like LBB) but they are voices you just listen to a few times or so and that is it but with Lea I can just listen to her over and over again and not want to stop listening to her.

Your voice has only gotten more magnificent young lady. Bless you and your family. You have provided great joy to your admirers over the years. All the best from a fan, AND I MEAN FAN!!!

      And I thought I was the sole person on the planet who thought that Idina Menzel can't sing, sang "Let it go" (or rather WHEN she sang while she was yelling that song) poorly, and for whatever strange reason is the only CD available right now for "Wicked." If her version was the first time I heard "Defying Gravity" it would never have meant a thing to me.

    I believe that if Lea had the role of Elphaba as her first starring role and also compared it to how Idina would sing it now...I truly believe that people would say things the other way around as like any other broadway stars who had their predecessors who ALWAYS and NEVER equal the Original. EMOTIONS, DELIVERY, PITCH, TONE, ENUNCIATION, BREATHING AND TECHNIQUE on how a song should be delivered and interpreted can be learned and perfected. But having to have one of the sweetest, clearest, pitch perfect voice in the world will and never will be replicated. "CINDERELLA became a princess, despite of everything she had. " I never heard of any WITCHES become a PRINCESS".

      she used her natural voice...not sure what an unnatural voice is. she was singing in her head voice for the higher notes, which was particularly clear, so it sounded reasonably good, considering she was imitating a belted note. that being said, i really like belted notes, and this performance didn't really do much for me, but i understand that many people love her, i just would point out that she is really a mezzo soprano, not a soprano, which made this a bad song choice for her...that being said, i appreciated her voice in this situation, and i love the way she has the guts to try to imitate something she knows is slightly beyond her, just to please the people she is entertaining...truly loving her fans is a great thing

      +Yasmin “Yassy” Villapando Idina has no voice technique like Lea, that is why i admire Lea. She is smart to not go pure belting the whack out of this song cause she knows she will crack and also it will not do good on her voice if she did whilst Idina who abuses her belting power and now struggling on her live performances.

      +Yesha DC I doubt she has asthma tho, it's just the way she sings. Poor vocal technique, maybe. Nonetheless, she's still a great singer.

    give the lady a standing ovation, with her age and the time that she spent singing and singing, she nailed it with her very nice version. yes idina did this with a powerful version so as gidget but it is not leas forte to sing this type of song,

    • @chrisknowles6582
      @chrisknowles6582 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      She tries to hard, she needs to bring the high notes down an octave or I would agree. Amazing. Idina is very nasal and broken. Both amazing let’s not lie. Just very different
