Ripley's pronunciation is a little strange; but there's something about the whole scene, and her, that just seems "right" - she almost sounds "stuffy" (as though she has a blocked nose) which fits this song.
Everybody want's Alice to be Sideshow Alice, or Sunset Alice or Tommy's Alice or King David's Alice Fantine's Alice, Rocky Horror's Alice. I went to college with Alice, more than 35 years ago! and we remain friends to this day. The truth is that this amazing vocalist/performer is approaching 60. She has adjusted her vocals accordingly. She is a consummate performer/singer and has had to adjust her vocals accordingly. I say BRAVA! and for those of you dissing her, I suggest you even try to approach her stature and talent. Well done Ms. Ripley!

The notes at 2:01 are outstanding! I find myself hitting that random “SAINTS AND ANGELS WHAT CAN IT BE…..BEEENDDDIIIINNNG” at times😂 her Keaton’s Carrie is definitely my favorite.
I love Alice Ripley, but my goodness are her vowels strange in this show. She's also flat quite a bit - like I said, I LOVE Alice. But I don't think Margaret was the right role for her.
Absolutely! Thank goodness She's good in next to normal and I thought she might have been good in this show too when I saw she'd been in it, but then I actually started watching the scenes with her in it, and... It really isn't that great... Shame, cause I actually like the staging of this, and Keaton is great
Alice Ripley's voice is so fitting for this role. Especially in this song bc it genuinely sounds like shes close to tears. Idk what you haters are smoking, Alice is probably one of the best Margarets. This is not an opinion, this is fact.
The great Betty Buckley absolutely owns the role of Margaret I sure wish I could have seen her in that role back in 1988. But the show was closed in around 10 or twelve days. What a shame !
I watched this entire musical thinking, 'Huh! This woman sounds so much like Alice Ripley!!' A month later... here I am... guess it was Alice Ripley and I'm just a dummy
Not at all. Alice is horribly out of tune and has no energy. I can’t imagine why they chose this actress to play Margaret. Betty’s voice is powerful and beautiful - and she just floats over the last 2 sentences.
The destruction is next
“why do I feel so all alone” that sentence on repeat 😍
Chelsea Stevens it’s a relatable sentence
Richie Williams especially now

keaton is amazing
One of the very few times when the actors are better than the originals. (My opinion)
Yes! I love Keaton as Carrie!
Neither hold a candle to Linzi or Betty from the original. But these actors are very good! Glad to see Alice has fixed her vocal issues.
@@jjdenison totally agree. Though the the cast from the Off-West End production with Kim Criswell come closest to Betty/Linzi IMO

You mean to tell me that you're friends with a child abuser? Wow.
[Carrie]
Jesus watches from the wall
But his face is cold as stone
If he loves me
Why do I feel so all alone?
Baby savior, meek and mild
What do you do with my prayers?
If you hear me
Why do I feel that no one cares?
[Maragret]
Father almighty
She's only a child
But the woman is waking inside her
She will be lost
If her passion runs wild
So I can't let her stumble and fall
As you help your child divine
Give me the strength to help mine
[Carrie]
Mama sees inside my soul
But her face is cold as stone
If she loves me
Why do I feel so all alone?
So alone
There's a movement in my head
Satan? Angels? What can it be?
It's growing!
It's stirring!
It's churning, shifting!
Bending!
(Spoken)
Carrie: What's happening to me?
Margaret: You can go to bed now
Carrie: Yes, Mama
Margaret: It's getting late, say your prayers
Carrie: Now, I lay me down to sleep. I pray the Lord my soul to keep
(Both) If I die, before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take
[Margaret]
I never wanted to cause you such pain
But there are times when my life is so frightening
Maybe I do things that I can't explain
But my feelings for you never change
You are still my precious one
Can you forgive what I've done
[Carrie (Margaret)]
Mama, you don't (I was wrong)
Need forgiveness from me
I know that you do (It hurts me)
What you have to (to hurt you.) (I'd rather die)
I want to dry all your tears (Then see you)
So you'll see (Suffer)
That I'm sorry for letting you down (One day you'll bless me, by taking away)
God bless me now (Look inside your heart)
Can you look inside your heart (That's where forgiveness must start)
Show me the mercy that you've always shown (After all)
[Both]
We have no one except each other
[Carrie (Margaret)]
(The world outside)
I was so afraid that you'll leave me alone (Can't understand you)
And I'd die if you pushed me away (When they betray you I'll always be here!)
Promise you'll be here. (You're the reason I'm alive)
You're the reason I'm alive. (You're the only reason I'm alive)
You're my survival
[Both]
In my life there's only one thing true
I love (will always love) you
I belueve she says Saints and angels
@@PoppyIsMyMetalQueen no, she says "satan? angels?"
I believe those are the official lyrics
@@AshleesBathroom no look them up she in the lyrics it says "saints and angels"
The notes at 2:01 are outstanding! I find myself hitting that random “SAINTS AND ANGELS WHAT CAN IT BE…..BEEENDDDIIIINNNG” at times😂 her Keaton’s Carrie is definitely my favorite.
I can't wait for open your heart, unsuspecting hearts, and why not me

Comedy? *THIS!*
It's far too scary and awesome.
I love Alice Ripley, but my goodness are her vowels strange in this show. She's also flat quite a bit - like I said, I LOVE Alice. But I don't think Margaret was the right role for her.
Thank god. I thought was the only one, she also doesn't seem to have enough energy when singing certain songs.
Yes..its very strange..she seems to be under pitch quite abit too...
@@lizard6109 I hate to say so, but definitely is! First thing I noticed.
Absolutely! Thank goodness
She's good in next to normal and I thought she might have been good in this show too when I saw she'd been in it, but then I actually started watching the scenes with her in it, and... It really isn't that great... Shame, cause I actually like the staging of this, and Keaton is great
theres something so haunting about a mother saying to her child 'you're the only reason im alive'
I will always love youUuUuUuUuUuUuUuUu
Their voices !!!! Wow I’m obsessed
Yay !!!
Lauren Ormesher got anymore suggestions?

Actually, the 1988 show closed in 3 days.

That voice crack tho

MaHma!
I can barely watch this now that I know what Alice is really like. Thank God for Keaton. She is the only reason I am even watching this performance.
Whats the tea?
@@waewae th-cam.com/video/8JRinvmhMKM/w-d-xo.html
What happened?
@@flowerchild6309 Long story short, Alice is a creep and a pedophile. There are articles and videos about it online somewhere.

What universe are you living in? Betty is talented. Alice is not.
Ripken’s caterwauling is oppressively flat. Horribly miscast!
Ripken or Ripley?
