Hi Tara, I love your videos. Could I ask you to do a reaction video ober Claudia Santoso and her song "If I try"? She also sang "Never enough" song in The voice of germany time ago. Thank you for reading Tara, God bless you
No disrespect to the original or Miss Benson, but Halle absolutely slayed this song. I have not stopped listening to it in over a month. And the reprises are just as amazing.
@@robertnichols3677keep your opinion. It's what makes you who you are. As long as you acknowledge the fact; which is, Halle's technique and performance is superior 🤷🏿♂️ But even then, growing your intelligence is up to you
They’re both absolutely amazing. Jodi’s voice is 100% animation character material, she’s got a gorgeous voice, and she’s expressed her love for Halle. Halle even had my boyfriend glued to the screen, and he hates musicals/Musical numbers, we were captivated by her and her voice.
The end climax is genius. The crescendo into above emulates Ariel's desire to leave the bottom of the sea and swim up above the surface (rising). The choice to feature a descending vocal riff on the "wish I could be" is Ariel coming back down to reality.
She had to sing this six times live in the cold, Halle slayed this, I love her sm, she was the perfect Ariel. Yes I remember your America the beautiful reaction and now we’re here 🥰🥰🥰
@@robertnichols3677the little mermaid 2023 did better in the box office than the 1989 original with inflation adjustment in mind btw, i think everyone else would beg to differ and yes she is the perfect ariel 😘
@@libras_groove bruh i dont know what are you talking about. The Little Mermaid remake has made $544.1 million at the current worldwide box. For a film with a budget of $250 million and $140 million in global marketing spend, The Little Mermaid hasn't earned back nearly as much as other Disney live actions, such as The Lion King and Aladdin. As you can probably tell from these numbers, The Little Mermaid's revenue has been unusually skewed. The Little Mermaid, initially expected to make $800m-$1B, then downgraded to make between $600m-$750m after it's first showings. It's bombing and Disney will lose millions $$$ because of it. Not counting the costs for marketing, which are likely in the millions. Some outlets have indicated it would need closer to $750 million, given the marketing budget. It seems the movies only do well in the domestic box office. This film experienced a big flop at the overseas box office especially in China. The Little Mermaid's live-action remake has had a pretty disappointing box office return, with it destroying Disney's $1 billion box office trend, causing many to wonder if Disney's live-action remakes will ever be able to recover. I'm not sure people will come to theater to watch that movie again. Other live action movies also seem to fail like Pinocchio, Mulan, Peter Pan & Wendy. The only one that is the best and most works is Cinderella (although the the little mermaid are just slightly more profitable than cinderella but it's still a success if you compared to its budget and also success is not always seen from how much the profit). Also the rating in IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes is very low even if you compared it with the original. Only 52% from google users like this film. The og is the first movie that Howard and Alan worked on together, creating a new broadway musical element that has raised disney from their downfall for a long decades or known as Bronze Age or Dark Age of Disney and made a huge profit also became the pioneering film of the Renaissance Era of Disney. Disney historian or disney nerd would never forget the og. You know what makes this live action remake profitable is because they take advantage of the nostalgia bait from the fans. If the og is not very successful before then I'm sure the remake will lose much more. But actually the only problem from this live action is not just about the race. They're lack of creativity to make a story or even just improve the story. Did you know that some changes from this movie is to campaining about culture, modern society, racism, pro feminism, anti male, culture inaccuracies, girlboss and sexism? I'm not bragging and this is a fact. Dont take me wrong, I love disney but they keep dissapointed their fans by their wokeness. You just need to view all reviews about this movie in youtube than you could understand
@@MARS0lwhy would all of the audience lie about that? Everyone in the audience confirmed she performed multiple times. I don’t understand why they would all collectively lie about that.
@@Sofia6261 Not sure. There are so many fan videos but its all the same take which is weird. I was just curious to see other takes since they claimed it was performed multiple times but you can't find any lol.
It's crazy. Cuz Alan Menken really went back on his own song and change things. Most writers wouldn't change an iconic song they wrote to update it to the new singer. Props to him
That’s cause it was Howard Ashman who wrote the lyrics of the song, and basically started working on the melody of it before Alan came in. It was Howard who was perfectionist about the way this song was supposed to be sang. Alan had no problem changing it now.
My wife instantly fell in love her song style. I'm an Opera singer from the Met n I teach vocal many students. It's all about air management. She move that air so perfect.
That riff is my favorite part of the song. When they showed the teaser trailer I started cry when she did that riff. I know then she would be amazed as Ariel.
Halle elevated the song so much that I can't even listen to the original the same way anymore. She set a new standard for how the song will be sung in the future. It's like Whitney Houston doing Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You." We respect the original and the o.g. who sang it first, however it's become a new classic onto itself. Jody should be proud because Halle loved her so much as the voice of Ariel in the animated version. Love it!
It’s good to see she’s being complimented and not being hated on for being black. Thank you so much Tara for seeing real talent for what it is. This is awesome
@@steele8280actually they did. And then in the most classic way possible, she clapped back with a song. What we’re not going to do is pretend the racism wasn’t palpable during this era.
@@nenyeo6090 nope, they criticized the filmmakers for changing Ariel but keeping everything else as identical as possible, but no-one hated *her* for being black. Most even said they’d be fine as long as it wasn’t *that* Ariel she was playing.
Somebody that you watch her sing, how she sings this of such an iconic song and how beautiful she is but then that smile at the end also - Halle is just one of those people who radiates so much that can detract anyone from their troubles just from those few moments to feel emotion of joy instead.
I was pleasantly surprised with her. I have to be honest I was one of those people who HATE change (especially as much change as was in this movie), but she did INCREDIBLE. This song has always given me goosebumps for some reason. lol
Everyone is picking this apart. Remember . Done 3 times at 3 am in the cold for them to get all the required videos and shots. She was freezing put out a stellar performance. This young lady is a champ
I am a die hard Little Mermaid fan and at first when I heard her live, I didn’t care for it, however, hearing it again and listening to your critique, I’m just in love with it. It’s different, but sometimes different is good.
She's amazing! Heard her version multiple times now and still feel as if it was written for her and like a brand new song when this is a classic, goodness!
i totally understand what you mean with the above part but i love that she did it more mix and closed because i think it’s the perfect blend between the more legit original version with this more modern contemporary take on it
I also prefer it too since it gives the emotion and tension of being trapped rather than being open and free. Definitely adds to the intensity of the movie in the theaters
@@itsmepotatogrande9335that’s not intensity, that’s power. The people making the movie made it as if they were on stage. But they weren’t on stage. That’s the problem.
Thank you so much Tara. So wanted to hear your feedback on Halle’s rendition of this song. May you also react to her version of “Can you feel the love tonight”?
People generally don't give a lot of flak for critiquing the song or vocal choices, that's fine.. It's when they decide whether or not she deserves the role, overlooking talent and the hard work it took to get there, all based on the colour of her skin.
ohhhhhhh i'm so with you! people should just be scrutinizing her for her performance (which was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G), not for who she is or where she came from! racism shouldn't have a place in the music industry, or anywhere else, for that matter.
You finally reacted to this! Can’t wait to watch your reaction. I wonder if you’re watching the live performance she did or the movie clip. I guess I’ll have to see! Watch both of those. Believe me, it’ll be worth your while.
It's amazing to see all these vocal coaches swooning over Halle's voice. I just love to listen to her voice and this version over and over and over. Go Halle!!!! Go Ariel!!! ✊🏿💜💙💚💛🧜🏽♀️🧜🏿♂️🧜🏾🦀🐡
As a singer/songwriter myself most pop singers hardly get disney roles and keep it the way people love but the 2nd part of "ready to staaaand" that's the spark people want! Love you Halle thank you for making my favorite disney princess come to life!
I dont know why some of y'all are hating her becuse of this role but to be honest she is PERFECT for this role her voice, her acting and everything is Perfect
From a person who has melanin being nearly 39 years. When I took my daughter to this movie after so much negative press because of a black person playing Ariel. She has been amazing she got me crying and my daughter singing! She set example for my daughter ❤
HOW!! This little lady got skillz!!! 🧜♀ And a slightly tangent high-point for me... right after that first surprise high note, the big burly middle age dude just singin' his heart out to a Disney Princess song!! Anyone else think he's probably an amazing dad to a daughter or two?!?! ❤
I am a profoundly hard-of-hearing/legally deaf classically trained vocalist and I sometimes find it difficult to hear some of the pedagogical minutia that you so clearly point out. Thank you for that! If I am with someone in person, I can use my other senses in conjunction with my hearing to quite easily feel and hear the things you need to as a vocal coach, but when I am not in someone's presence it can be difficult for me. That's why I only teach lessons in person and I teach my students to sing from a multi-sensory, full-body perspective. It's worked out great for me and my students thus far! Have you ever come across another HOH/d/Deaf vocal coach and if so, what did you think? Thanks for sharing, Tara!
LOL, I tried the "above" the way that you noted and it was a lot brighter! So I don't think that you will get too much flack! 💕💕 Not that I am comparing myself to Halle! LOL, but for me, it was brighter.
Finally! I've been waiting for this for a long time. Everything you said makes sense. The wider "above" would really make it sound even better. Thank you for this. You should also react to the "Part of your world reprises" by Halle Bailey you will love it!
I totally agree that the changes she made to the melody were well done. I've heard people complain that it's just unnecessary high notes and the song is not meant to be a power ballad, but I don't think it felt unnecessary at all. Like you said, it wasn't too much, it wasn't like she riffed all over it.
I LOVE the original and had the VHS on repeat as a kid daily, I thought I wouldn't like her version... now I can't listen to the original anymore without feeling it's dated and not as good, she is genuinely remarkable.
If you haven't already please react to Halle performing "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" for Disney. She sang it so beautifully and I think you would really enjoy it since it's also such an iconic Disney song.
I too, would have widened the vowel on the word “above“, but at the same time I love the way she was able to do it and keep it that very vertical shape. It seemed to really work for her, so why change it?
I feel like Halle may have intentionally sung it the way she did to emphasize how trapped Ariel feels. And in terms of the vertical shape you were talking about I also think that it works well in the actual scene considering she's swimming and reaching straight up desperately wanting to be above the water ☺️
I also think since the above ends on a D5 and the reprise climax is also on a D5 going for a mix here and keeping the belt for the reprise and holding it longer serves to show Halle’s different colors in terms of vocals and still make the reprise’s climax impressive even when it’s the same nite.
I feel like that riff brought some soul to the song and her character. I think I saw an interview (I may be wrong) where she said she ad-libbed that part into her audition and maybe felt soulful. They wanted to keep it in. It also speaks to her style as an artist as both she and her sister often ad-lib and change harmonies and arrangements in their live performances.
It’s such a joy to watch you Tara! Loved your reaction to this and analysis! I am one of the many that had their fingers crossed you would react to this performance! It’s been to long since you reacted to her ❤️
I love it! Also, Voctave is back with a Heroes & Villains medley that can't be missed. Features their male singers and EJ Cardona's leather lungs are back in full force! You should definitely react.
I would love your reaction to Aurora. She was the voice of the wind in Frozen 2. I love her Runaway from the Nobel peace prize concert, and murder 54321 from the same concert.

I feel like Halle may have intentionally sung it the way she did to emphasize how trapped Ariel feels. And in terms of the vertical shape you were talking about I also think that it works well in the actual scene considering she's swimming and reaching straight up desperately wanting to be above the water ☺️
I also think since the above ends on a D5 and the reprise climax is also on a D5 going for a mix here and keeping the belt for the reprise and holding it longer serves to show Halle’s different colors in terms of vocals and still make the reprise’s climax impressive even when it’s the same nite.
With all due respect, FINALLY! Lol. Thanks
She do it good , i love this song when she sing ❤
You’ve got a beatiful voice as well 🙏🏼👏🏼
She is amazing!
I feel like that riff brought some soul to the song and her character. I think I saw an interview (I may be wrong) where she said she ad-libbed that part into her audition and maybe felt soulful. They wanted to keep it in. It also speaks to her style as an artist as both she and her sister often ad-lib and change harmonies and arrangements in their live performances.
I HAVE BEEN WAITING!! THANK YOU!
I agree on the wider vowel. I was thinking the same before you said it
Agreed 100% with everything you said ❤️ love Halle she’s amazing, you should react to more stuff in of Chloe x Halle
We’ve been waiting on your reaction for 2 months❤
I’m all here for classics and not messing them up but I’m sorry Halle made this her own and it actually sounds better! 👏🏽
The “wish I could beee” literally is my favorite part it’s so gorgeous!!!!!
It’s such a joy to watch you Tara! Loved your reaction to this and analysis! I am one of the many that had their fingers crossed you would react to this performance! It’s been to long since you reacted to her ❤️
She has soul cant help that.
I love it! Also, Voctave is back with a Heroes & Villains medley that can't be missed. Features their male singers and EJ Cardona's leather lungs are back in full force! You should definitely react.
Yes I loved this reaction ❤❤
I would love your reaction to Aurora. She was the voice of the wind in Frozen 2. I love her Runaway from the Nobel peace prize concert, and murder 54321 from the same concert.
finally. been waiting for your reaction haha, loved it
