Who I’d Be is one of the best musical theater songs of our time. The way it builds, exposes the characters, and blends the trio together perfectly? Please
Love these Ellie! Would it be crazy to do a ‘vocal moment’ ranking? Like a Patrick Page Hades bass note VS an Alex Newell Independently Owned riff? Just an idea 🤗🩷
I would like to see a video about what is better, the Og song or the replacement, where you compared songs that had been replaced with another one because reasons like Blue/Your welcome (heathers) Donkey pot pie/ forever (Shrek) The children we didn’t have/ Barbara 2.0 (Beetlejuice) The double bubble duchess/ Queen of Pop (CATCF[I’m not comparing Juicy with you got what you want because Juicy is obs the winner])
I was with you till the second round, then we parter ways for most of them. I struggled separating the song I like more from what suites the 'I want' the best. These are fun videos to watch!
The Prom I want song is Dance with you, in my opinion You can feel the longing in their voices and how much they want this normal thing that everyone gets to have except them, its beautiful and powerful
I'm quite surprised that memory or fabulous baby wasnt on this list as they both clearly show the characters goal although memory is at the end of the show it still shows how desperate grizabella is. Also you could do a video on what is the best reprise or best act one finale or best villain song
@@EllieTalksTheatre I guess it's just the first thing that comes to your mind and then after you done then thing you then think of a hundred other things you could have done
I was with you until the end. I watched a video of the actual Broadway version of Who I'd Be, WOW, Part of Your World doesn't come close to the emotion and story (the wonderful actors singing at the end counts too!) that Who I'd be is....I my opinion!😇☺
Wicked is the best in my opinion 😅 Booked to go back for birthday trip 1/5 💚💚💚 Mulan is my favourite Disney film Reflection wins the round easily One song glory is great Don’t know the other one 100% behind Roxy - seeing Chicago in Manchester on their tour in November
We are identical! I'm not a fan of shrek the musical either really but I loveeeeee who I'd be!!! Well deserved second place. (justice for Hamilton but we can't always get what we want) 🤣
I feel personally attacked that you chose that Bandstand song over Own Little Corner because JULIE ANDREWS, KEKE PALMER, CARLY RAE JEPSEN, LESLIE OSNES, LESLEY ANN WARREN, LEA SALONGA, JUDY KAYE, SHERRI SHEPARD AND BRANDY all sang that song to perfection!!!! Yeah the OG Mary Poppins was the lead in the first live televised adaptation of Rodgers & Hammerstein's Cinderella back in the 1950s!!!
I think that's what makes these videos so fun - everyone else will have a different winner and a completely different pathway to victory for it! It's all subjective and beautifully so.
@@EllieTalksTheatre good question, I didn't know half of the songs on here. I really like Who I'd Be, I haven't listened to Almost There for a while but I remember liking it, I also remember being really moved by Somewhere That's Green. I think I'd give it to Shrek at the moment, though that might be because I discovered the song recently. Also, while we're at it, it wasn't on the list but I think Go the Distance is really nice too

I was not expecting all the Who I'd Be love but I'm glad I'm not the only one! 😂
"A dream needs believing..."
Couldn't click on this fast enough.
PS. This should be called the Alan Menken Tournament. The man is the I Want Song GOAT.
Part of Your World *is* Somewhere That’s Green
I heard once that Howard Ashman and Menken used to call it "Somewhere that's dry" 😂
I totally need a disney I want song tier list!!!!
I'm hurt that out there from hunchback didn't go further, but if it was going to lose to another song, I'm just glad that it was Menken vs Menken
Love these Ellie! Would it be crazy to do a ‘vocal moment’ ranking? Like a Patrick Page Hades bass note VS an Alex Newell Independently Owned riff? Just an idea 🤗🩷
8:40 Ashman & Menken's Somewhere That's Green vs. Ashman & Menken's Somewhere That's Wet
Both once performed by Kerry Butler BTW
Honestly, the GOATS.
Can’t believe there was no ‘maybe this time’ from cabaret in this, or ‘somewhere’ from west side story! They’re my top two! ❤️
Oh my god Maybe This Time! Now I agree that would have gone VERY far - I could always do a sequel if I can think of 32 more 😂
Omg I thought it is so hard to find literally anyone who knows bandstand but it is so iconic!
I would like to see a video about what is better, the Og song or the replacement, where you compared songs that had been replaced with another one because reasons like
Blue/Your welcome (heathers)
Donkey pot pie/ forever (Shrek)
The children we didn’t have/ Barbara 2.0 (Beetlejuice)
The double bubble duchess/ Queen of Pop (CATCF[I’m not comparing Juicy with you got what you want because Juicy is obs the winner])
Oh that's a really good idea that I'm mad I didn't think of...
I was with you till the second round, then we parter ways for most of them. I struggled separating the song I like more from what suites the 'I want' the best. These are fun videos to watch!
I think that's what makes these so fun - they're all so good that you spilt hairs and everyone will have different favourites and winners
The Prom I want song is Dance with you, in my opinion
You can feel the longing in their voices and how much they want this normal thing that everyone gets to have except them, its beautiful and powerful
Ah damn you're not wrong.
Swap them around and I think the bracket still goes the same way but Dance With You is a beautiful song.
I'm quite surprised that memory or fabulous baby wasnt on this list as they both clearly show the characters goal although memory is at the end of the show it still shows how desperate grizabella is. Also you could do a video on what is the best reprise or best act one finale or best villain song
The amount of 'I Want' songs I remembered after filming this video could fill an entire other bracket 😂
@@EllieTalksTheatre I guess it's just the first thing that comes to your mind and then after you done then thing you then think of a hundred other things you could have done
Bring on the tier list of Disney I want songs!
4th like, 2nd comment! As a MASSIVE theater kid, I love your channel so so so much Ellie!

One song glory is great
Don’t know the other one

Before i watch this Video i Just want to say that it's Part of your world !😂
I can safely say you'll either be very pleased or very upset by the end lol
sighs & opens spotify to listen to who i'd be despite not being into shrek at all
yeah, okay, it‘s a fucking GREAT i-want-song 😔 /lh
Yes please Disney next

I stand by it lol

@@EllieTalksTheatre Dang it! I can't even be mad at that, were you an international diplomat in a previous life?
How about this life, you don't know my day job lol
DEAR EVAN HANSEN OVER ENCANTO IS EASY WHY ARE WE EVEN THINKING ABOUT THIS
I was willing on who I’d be so hard haha I love that song best song from shriek I adore it ❤
Am I a contrarian if I really can't stand part of your world?
It's all subjective - what would win in your opinion?

On my own is the objectively correct answer.
