Oh wow. Is there nothing Arielle cannot sing? This is absolutely amazing. Loved the "melt" riff and the final "I" riff. Question: How and why has Arielle not played the role of Elphaba yet?!
She’s apparently auditioned for the role previously then the producers felt she would be better as Nessa. In time I for sure think she will play the role 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I think it's because of her voice. Her voice suits Nessa since the actress who sang Nessa has the same voice texture? as Arielle. But I also think her range would have some difficulty with Elphaba's notes. Idina started it so high thus producers, I think,wanted somebody with more or less the same range as Idina's.
Everyone should listen to her entire one woman show on Spotify. Her story is so incredible and she picks the best songs to match the mood of each stage of her life. So much respect for her as a person and for and her undeniable talent.
POWERHOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Celebration worthy indeed. Thank you so much for sharing Ms. Jacobs. Just pure awesome in every shape and form. :)
Wow, what are the chances that you mom was one of my teachers at NYU! How funny! So glad to hear that you're doing better, and congrats on your pre-acceptance to music school! I also teach voice lessons in person or online via Skype/Facetime, so write to me through my website if you want to train singing together. Happy new year to you and your family :)
When I meet the Wizard Once I prove my worth And then I meet the Wizard What I've waited for since: since birth!

Three people are like "Idina is the queen, no one can sing this better than she can"... and I'm like- Yeah, Idina may be a queen, but that makes Arielle an Empress... lol

Ofcourse the wizard and i part at the end is the most replayed fast forwarded spot😂 i feel like i find myself going to the least ones to atleast hear the build up
This lady has a good balance of acting and singing, which she is supposed to be musical theatre anyway. In fact, you need to have a little bit more acting than singing.
Arielle would make SUCH a perfect Rapunzel if they ever made Tangled an official Broadway musical. She's so expressive and her voice is so sweet.
Ikr
I’m so used to thinking of her as Nessa. THIS IS AMAZING!♥️
Oh wow. Is there nothing Arielle cannot sing? This is absolutely amazing. Loved the "melt" riff and the final "I" riff.

ChrisRoderosVlogs Roderos Perhaps. I think Arielle would be brilliant as Elphaba. I loved her as Nessa though
I think it's because of her voice. Her voice suits Nessa since the actress who sang Nessa has the same voice texture? as Arielle. But I also think her range would have some difficulty with Elphaba's notes. Idina started it so high thus producers, I think,wanted somebody with more or less the same range as Idina's.
Arielle you are fantastic and you sing like an angel

She brings the amount of geek energy this song requires.
POWERHOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Celebration worthy indeed. Thank you so much for sharing Ms. Jacobs. Just pure awesome in every shape and form. :)
One of my favourite songs from Wicked. Her voice is incredible!

When we are hand in hand
The Wizard and I!
And one day, he'll say to me, "Elphaba
A girl who is so superior
Shouldn't a girl who's so good inside
Have a matching exterior?
And since folks here to an absurd degree
Seem fixated on your verdigris
Would it be all right by you

Finally a new video! Keep on! Edit: Just saw you added another 1 week ago!
amazing !!!
Amazing! 😀
This is incredible!!
bless the man playing the piano
got shivers this is fab
Yass Arielle !! Love it 💖💖
THIS. WOMAN. IS. AMAZING!
Reminded me of rachel zegler
the most swankified cover in town!
So incredible 😍😍😍🙌🙌🙌
impeccable
So I’m really late to this video but this is still amazing- All I have to say is HOW?!
A queen 😍
The last riff chills
She looks kinda like the super young Gabriella Martez❤
THE WAS AMAZING 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Just saw her as Jasmine. She's amazing!
Three people are like "Idina is the queen, no one can sing this better than she can"... and I'm like- Yeah, Idina may be a queen, but that makes Arielle an Empress... lol
Mrmattlansbury oh please.
Idina is the weakest Elphaba of them all.
Extremely overrated. And not half as good as Arielle.
Or any other Elphaba ever
How many of y’all comparing every Wizard and I performance on TH-cam to Ariana Grandes 😂
This was obvi amazing but was that Heath Saunders playing the piano??
Sure was :)
you're amazing
Did that really just happen?
Have I actually understood?
This weird quirk I've tried to suppress or hide
Is a talent that could help me meet the Wizard

She kinda reminds me of Anna Kendrick
4:15, this is the first person I’ve seen and similar to Cynthia Erivo. Her voice is very nasal on that last note though. Not Cynthia.
How many Jacobs are there ?
Bob Smithies i know there’s adam and arielle, the broadway ones, but adam has a twin brother... who knew??
I like her take on the song, she’s very funny. Adorable energy and she looks a bit like America Ferreira, but prettier too.
If you the Arielle should play Elphaba someday, gimme a “Hell Yeah!”
OMG her high note at the end sounded like Christina Grimmie. I so miss hearing Christina Grimmie's voice.
Ofcourse the wizard and i part at the end is the most replayed fast forwarded spot😂 i feel like i find myself going to the least ones to atleast hear the build up
She's really good, but almost a quarter step sharp😳
A bit too shakey and lower notes were off-key. But interesting take on that song.
way better than ariana grande
Arianas performance was better. This more acting not singing
ariana's one sounded really out of breath. but still tho, i love both. u can't compare them because both of them are very very different singers.
....it’s almost like it’s a broadway musical and not a pop song
This lady has a good balance of acting and singing, which she is supposed to be musical theatre anyway. In fact, you need to have a little bit more acting than singing.
