Idina Menzel - I Stand [Acoustic] (video)

[spongeyruler]

It would be super awesome if she got to sing one of her songs on Glee. She's amazing. I would love to see Idina live.

[springawakeninglive]

She is fabulous!

[TheRealYiyan]

A true inspiration.

[beth102795]

i just don't get it. she is the most talented woman on this earth, she's drop dead gorgeous, she has a heart of gold, and she has an adorable/lovable personality. why doesn't she have more fans?

[edoll07]

34 people got the like and dislike button confused.

[Kiteshock64]

@edoll07 its 35

[victoriagdavis]

I love Idina!! I was just wondering if she sounds nasal here to anyone else? I'm not insulting, please dont think i am! I just thought her voice sounded nasal, especially considering she's classically trained

[k11lovergirl]

You're soooo amazing, Idina <3...pleas come to Vienna,Austria for a concert =)

[VapidFood]

34 people wishing they were Idina.

[senerax]

holy...



[Y2CJ3600]

cool it's the lady from enchanted

[iggyrocks1]

@Y2CJ3600 Wow, I didn't even realize it was her....

[CaligaRelinquo]

34 people don't know what Amazing sounds like

[fcnoyes]

idina menzel- you are my idol! i want to be you. i'm auditioning to a singing, acting mucical arts high school so i can be on broadway like you!

[ashley15416]

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL. Either I'm really emotional, or this song just makes me cry. <3

[BestEevi]

I's it right, when my friends laugh at me when I say I'm her fan :/

I'm so different compared to them. They hate "Wicked" because I've told them about it and like I said they laugh to me because I like Idina :'<

She is so amazing <3

[DimitriandRozaxx]

@BestEevi You tell them that us Idina fans will set them straight! Idina is beautiful and amazing! Wish I could meet her sooo badly =] xox

[spongeyruler]

@BestEevi Your friends just don't understand. If they read Wicked and listened to the songs from it, and listened to this and Idina's other songs, they might understand. They're just ignorant is all. Don't let them get to you.

[MevrVanVelzen]

She 's the best !!!!

[ablackguy123456789]

i think i'm gonna purchase this album. it seems pretty good!

[77elphie]

goddd i love u idina. u dont understand how much i want to meet u and hear u sing livee!! <3 <3 i love u! ur my fricken idol!!

[BONESBOOTH91]

I've got such a Girl Crush on her. Lol <3

[xxoxamericangirlxxox]

story of my life right now<3

[wickedautograph]

ha i bought this song last week. already 33 plays

[wickedautograph]

love this song, my theme song

[sevets2000]

Idina Menzel is one of the true artists of our time, one of the very best - a real American Treasure. This song is proof of her talent; just Idina and a piano, it doesn't get any better. Thanks for sharing.

[elektra647]

This is music video? I thought it is LIVE.

[ChoirGrl1989]

This song is piratically my theme song lol

[tficiur10]

@ChoirGrl1989 same here

[dunebarbie]

im in love with this song, i listen to it like 3-5 times a day!!! <3

[NcisTivaSarah]

I'm one of the only people in my grade who knows who Idina Menzel is. She is my favorite singer. Everyone else does not know what they are missing.

[epacmo1807]

After hearing this, how do people still listen to the crappy music we have nowadays????

[DinosaurGiraffes]

@epacmo1807 People who listen to the crappy music we have now probably haven't heard the amazing music that exists.

[SakuraWallflower15]

AMAZING!^0^

[adrigirl828]

I will not die until I see one of her shows!

[TVmieliesMAD]

Oh my Goodness - AMAZING VOICE! Amazing Song! I wish i culd see her live, South africa is just so far away! I will make it my goal to see u perform live one day- thats for sure!

[TheHaileyleanne]

she is flawless<3!!!!!!!! words cant describe how amazing i think she is

[MrsJoller]

I'm just like...WOW! <3

[LadyKikiism]

I LOVE THIS SONG! I think I have a bit of Jewish in me so I like to think I have 'a bit of Idina' in me, like Puerto Rican Scotty mccreery likes to think about JLo

[Jellyapple67]

POSTED ON MY BIRTHDAY COOL

[KiyoSmerfy]

she has an incrediblee voice omgg. perfect

[ImBeautifullyTragicx]

She is so beautiful.

[122ndmusic]

The song is well written so if she wrote it then kudos to her but as far as voices she is OK at best..I can see that song going to another artist who will kill it vocally and make it a huge hit!!

[unshallowifyable]

@122ndmusic ...such as who!? Idina's voice is INCREDIBLE! Yes, she did co-write this, and be VERY careful as to what you say to Idina fans! We're DEDICATED!

[122ndmusic]

@unshallowifyable I won't reveal who i am because that would be just wrong but let's just say I have a platinum plaque or 2 or few-lol as a producer. Now like I said her voice is just OK at best!!!!!!

[unshallowifyable]

@122ndmusic good for you... But I didn't ask who you were, I asked who you'd give this song to...

[jessheartslochie]

@122ndmusic are you KIDDING ME Idina is an A.M.A.Z.I.N.G singer

IM WARNIN U DON'T DIS IDINA MENZEL

[122ndmusic]

@jessheartslochie-First of all, I am not dissing her! I am giving positives and negatives which "some" of you can't seem to stand about your favorite artist! Most stage singers do not translate to the commercial world of music. Like I said she is "OK" recorded and I am sure better live but I have listened and unless she is holding back vocally there is something missing!!!! Period, point blank.

[TWIB627]

@122ndmusic In a way I kind of agree with you. I have seen her live and I think she is much, much better live than recordeded - at least in this. She is an amazing singer but I don't think this recording does her justice.

[MrsJoller]

MY BIGGEST IDOL! i couldn't live without her! Her voice is amazing and i love her!!!!!!

[WHiTEGLUEx3]

just met her last night. i had the best conversation with her, i was crying when she hugged. me. I LOVE IDINA

[PrincessASU]

WOW! Awesome

[SayNo2googlification]

love idina. I really wish her channel content was open to mobile viewers.

[cheerfreak2007]

To be honest, I'm glad she's not on the radio...she'd get way to over-played just like every other artist and people would begin to not like. Her voice is too beautiful and powerful to be one of those over-played stars. I love her voice ! <3

[maryannmount]

Wow, just so empowering!!!!



[ellabellapantherella]

This is soooooooo PRETTY! You are AMAZING Idina!

Love,

Ella

[TheVampire666dark]

So nice song! :)

[dancingqueen823]

This is one of the songs I performed at an audition for a music course at a university and it got me into the course. THANK YOU IDINA YOU ARE AMAZING AND THIS SONG IS BEAUTIFUL!!

[EuranbeProducer]

@dancingqueen823 I've always thought this particular song would be PERFECT for an audition! Now I know that it is! :P

[dancingqueen823]

@EuranbeProducer Yeah definitely! It shows your voice range and power and it's great to put lots of emotion into! :)

[broadwaydiva37]

best singer ever! no one can top her!

[dramababe3474]

one of my fave songs.......mostly cause while i was listening to it, she tweeted me:)

[cheridinamenzel]

i love this song its awsome

[MsSydneyLaura]

I actually do not know why this does not have way more views. Idina Menzel is one of the most amazing singers I have ever heard.

[SuperDegrassilover10]

@MsSydneyLaura i agree but most younger youtubers do not go looking her up

[lexiconlover]

@MsSydneyLaura YouTube is all about pop culture and Idina is more popular in theater performance...She's on Glee and therefore SHOULD have way more views in theory but she doesn't take off her clothes. Enough said.

[iluvwickedandelphie]

idina is so amazing i can't believe only a few people love her it's so hard to coprehend why people don't like her. She is my idol.

[shygirl9514]

how is this possible- only 354,254 views! The world needs to hear her! The world needs to hear THIS!

[TheUSCforlife]

Saw her in concert a few nights ago and words cannot do justice to her performance. However there was a woman who was clearly in her 80's or 90's behind me and she remarked that Idina was better than Streisand. Now that's a compliment.

[Sakina1222]

@TheUSCforlife I completely agree with that comment... <3

[ablackguy123456789]

@TheUSCforlife damn that IS a compliment!

[MsMusiclover024]

does it matter if a small 5 thousand people don't like idina when 10 million do? think about it the diffrence speaks for it's self9,995,000

[Vicky5621]

I love watching her face at 2:20-2:25. She looks so concentrated and in the moment. That is dedication and that is talent.

[zinzy33]

you 31 People- I'd like to hear YOU try to sing better than her!

[Sakina1222]

@zinzy33 Oh please those 31 random people tried singing, failed, and were jealous of this talent

[iluvwickedandelphie]

@Sakina1222 hahah probably true

[MisaLadyful]

31 dislikes? That is insane! How could anyone that can hear dislike Idina??? I LOVE HER! Every song she sings gives me chills! She is AWESOMINGLY AMAZING!! :) 239058739475938475023803984503­845 THUMBS UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[PintSizedDiva]

She inspires me so. :)

[anabarza07]

may hair stood! BRAVO!! =D

[Sakina1222]

She is so beautiful and so amazing. She is an inspiration and one of the most amazing singer out there!

[evanescencelover22]

@Sakina1222 Agreed <3

[evanescencelover22]

Her voice is so beautiful and haunting in this song. It makes me almost cry how much power she puts into it. <3 I love Idina

[Sakina1222]

@evanescencelover22 Me too, so much passion <3

[evanescencelover22]

@Sakina1222 Yes <3 She's a true singer.

[principessaholli]

31 people must be sitting down.

[zorabby]

31 people must be deaf.......

[Themelkins67]

What a wonderful message.....Idina is a amazing!

[squirtpert]

She is so gorgeous. MOO WITH ME!

[sarahgleek101]

i love this video. its just so simple. candles, her and her amazing voice.

[SingingCatzzz]

every time i close my laptop, i can still hear her singing...

[ImBeautifullyTragicx]

More people need to know the amazingness that is Idina. If I tell people that Idina Menzel is my favourite singer, they're like "Who?". Thankfully, I have persuaded most of my friends to watch her in 'Wicked' (even if only via youtube), and they all agree that she has an amazing, beautiful voice. 'I Stand' is one of my favourite songs of hers; I can't believe she's such a talented actress, singer AND songwriter. She is my idol. I would give anything to hug her <3

[sweetypeady]

@ImBeautifullyTragicx Woah wait you can watch Wicked on YouTube? I've been looking for it on here and can't find it anywhere!

[ImBeautifullyTragicx]

@sweetypeady Yes! I had to look for ages too, but I found it :) I will message you a link xxx

[sweetypeady]

@ImBeautifullyTragicx Okay! I will! Thanks so much! :) xxx

[ImBeautifullyTragicx]

@sweetypeady Although, you need to add me as a friend first :)

[MsMusiclover024]

@ImBeautifullyTragicx same thing at my school its a tragedy :(

[4everteamalice]

hmmm the song is called i stand but the whole time in the music video shes sitting... hehe love herr

[fudgyvmp]

this is possibly my favorite song (so many it might be in a 20 way tie, but its still my favorite)

[bobby7771117]

What a wonderful singer and beautiful woman Idina Menzel is! You can just fall in love with her as you hear her sing! Check out some old dan Fogelberg and see if you don't feel the same why! Sincerely, BobbyK

[ExpectTheeUnexpected]

IDINA MENZEL....nuff said

[melini10]

is she an actress too cause she looks familiar????

[SwiftPonyProductions]

@melini10 That she is, I know her from Enchanted (she was Nancy).

[iceskater276]

@melini10 she's also in Glee season 1 and Rent.

[ImBeautifullyTragicx]

@melini10 And she played Elphaba in the musical 'Wicked', both in the Original Broadway Cast (OBC) and the Original West End Cast (OWEC)

[lostsandbank]

Beautiful voice, beautiful song. Nuff' said. :)

[idinamenzelforever]

31 people are sitting

[bigkittysmile]

very nice

[elyssa44]

I'm naming my daughter after her! haha

[Aleeeeeeex1000]

She's too amazing i love her!

[missjamie135]

31 people are IDIOTS!!!!

[NatInTheHatx3]

I love this song. Whenever I hear it I think of gays, lesbians, transgendered, and bisexuals who have been victims of bullying. Plus, Idina isn't underrated in the slightest. Personally, I like it better that only people who have a good taste in music have heard her. That is why they have a good taste in music. I'd rather the few people who have heard/her love her then everyone have heard her and people don't like her because they are used to pop garbage and autotune. I love this;can't you tell?

[unshallowifyable]

@NatInTheHatx3 Well said! Fanzels for life <3

If anybody's got twitter, the hashtag #ILoveIdinaMenzel would be good to trend, don't you think? ;)

[NatInTheHatx3]

@unshallowifyable Agreed.

[sarahgleek101]

@unshallowifyable sorry but i had to say that i love that fan name Fanzel! putting that on my Twitter bio now :)X

[brandon4741]

i love idina

[lillagah]

she kind of look like the italian singer laura pausini.

[WickedCrazyTiger]

@lillagah The Italian singer Laura Pausini looks kind of like Idina Menzel. =3

[xXTinySpinjaXx]

@WickedCrazyTiger  lol she does!

[lillagah]

@WickedCrazyTiger or that! :P

[AlwaysAndForever839]

Idina Menzel is absolutely incredible <3

[xInLuvxWiTxUx]

this is why broadway stars are the best, they can actually sing well. And Idina, for one, sings like an angel.

[mconstanta]

listen to this with good headphones on full volume. HEAVEN! idina's voice is like an angel

[hhlawesomness]

Indina you are now my Idol which believe me is an acomplishment because i am an eleven year old , well picky girl and i want to be on bradway when i'm 23 or so but i wanted to even before i discoverd you man you are such a inspiration

[yvanelicia123]

if she was my mom, I think i would let her sing in public, unlike my mom! LOLz she AMAZING! and an inspiration.

[robynsleo]

Stunning voice, perfect song. Idina is the whole package.

[Unknowntruth84]

She really could be Lea Michelle's mother in real life they look soo much a like.

[futurestar103]

This. is. AMAZING!

[zinzy33]

She is the best singer ever. Period. End of Dicussion

[awesomechic99100]

@zinzy33 but her and kristen chenoweth is amazing too

[melodytheangel]

This song is beautiful! I love Idina Menzel-she's got a gorgeous voice.

[butchymcfabulous]

please marry me.

[vanvanvanessaa]

i love idina menzel. fullstop.

[YOURDONATIONSCOUNT]

she looks like a grown up version of rachel berry. ha.. awk.

[Charliefisher1987]

@YOURDONATIONSCOUNT that's why she played her mum in season 1. :L idina's more talented than lea though ;)

[jearapan22]

i love this song!

[ConstantinaBoo]

simply amazing...!! <3

[OmgItzAmyRUN]

God. I look over to the suggestions all I saw was Glee, and then I saw Emmy Rossum. Yay Emmy :D Glee....eh.

[elitagonzalez]

Jesus is the answer for this song

[kmkeys42]

My dream is to sing like Idina Menzel. Legitttt. If I could just wake up one day with her voice I would never stop singing... :D

[xLunaBella]

i prefer the acoustic version....

[dannyyspencerr]

so her and nelly furtado are twins, right?

[ChrisGuy1980]

"I stand for the power of change, I stand for the power of love..." Amazingly gorgeous!!!! Wow!

[twisterroo]

Guys, please stop feeding the troll. Idina is amazing, we all know it, and we're not going to change his mind.

[mightytim23]

@twisterroo her :)))

[emdivergirl]

@TheWWWJTFORG - interesting that you came on here to see 'what's new on Broadway' when Idina Menzel has been on broadway for nearly 20 years. Also interesting that maybe your wife *can* blow her out of the water (and if she was on Broadway i don't doubt she is a fantastic performer), but as Idina Menzel was cast as the opening lead for two of the most popular musicals of all time - Rent and Wicked - there are evidently a lot of the people in the industry who think she's quite talented....

[TessaAngelica]

love herr!!

[dancingqueen823]

This is the first time I've heard her sing her own music. She's absolutely amazing and I really look up to her. Every day she inspires me to reach for the stars and become the best I can possibly be :) LOVE YOU IDINA!! ♥♥

[SavvyDowning]

Idina = <3

[RBrinson66]

Will someone remove this prick, TheWWWJTFORG

[sylvanase]

She was on Enchanted....

[NoelDiem13]

Favorite song of all time. <3

[vnova19]

she's my idol and if i could ever sing like her, i'd be the happiest person on earth

[TheWWWJTFORG]

@vnova19

Anyone can sing like Idina Menzel, she is mediocre. Just start singing to cds.

[uberawesomeme12]

@TheWWWJTFORG You're mediocre.

[TheWWWJTFORG]

@uberawesomeme12

I doubt it.  I have a massive IQ.

[uberawesomeme12]

@TheWWWJTFORG Oh I'm sure...

[unshallowifyable]

@TheWWWJTFORG so what? IQ doesn't neccesarily mean REAL intelligence. My IQ's about 130-140. I get As in my subjects, I can dance, sing a bit, play piano a bit, so I like to think I'm quite intelligent.

Personally, I think for you to keep going on about how somebody's mediocre on their own video is quite mean- I wouldn't do it even to rebecca black- and especially when this lady's obviously talented with loyal fans, I think it's frankly pointless, annoying and slightly stupid.

Idina <3

[lucycrimson88]

@TheWWWJTFORG

I think that pop doesn't suit her voice and she's way better singing musical theatre

[TheWWWJTFORG]

@lucycrimson88

She is good enough for todays low standards, but could never have made it in the 1950s on back.

[lucycrimson88]

@TheWWWJTFORG

Well i wasn't around then. But it's kind of pointless comparing her to people from a different era, because the process in making music, the instruments used in performing and the genres and styles are SO DIFFERENT now.

But you're entitled to your opinion.

[architect114]

absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Check out her song Brave, it moves me SO MUCH!

[funro4]

I LOVE This. Her voice is AMAZING!!!!

[xxMaryLPxx]

oh God.....what a voice!!!

[Jvilander]

just bought the EP from iTunes...$4.99. Its Wonderful :)

[Tink8282]

love this song :) saw her in wicked <3

anyone else think she looks like a mix of nelly furtado and that chick from glee?

[elphaba71688]

@Tink8282 She actually played the birth mother of Lea Michelles character, Rachel Berry on glee. the two actually sang together, which was awesome. as for the nelly firtado character, no clue who that is.

[shining4everasme]

Idina is such an inspiration. She is one of the only artists whos lyrics actually mean something, and aren't just electronic beats.

[musicianforlife8295]

I've adored Idina ever since I saw her on Rent. She is so incredibly talented, and breathtakingly beautiful. Idina is one of the most amazing artists of all time.

[Strataan]

from 1:45 to 2:14 I ohnestly can not breathe...
