  • she has nothing on Tasia

  • I really wanted to watch this live... That was one of my dreams in high school, to go and watch this show. One of my favorite movies! To bad i live in Aus. But Lovin this movie soo much! i hope its still on when i get to NY :D God bless ox

  • i dont think its to do with her emotion i think its to do with the fact that fantasia has a more gospel voice and is richer and more powerful, this girl is younger i think and alot more like the actual character in the film

  • I like Fantasia's verssion more.

  • I think this is Lachanze who won the Tony for this performance

  • Jeannette Bayardelle is by far, the best Celie!!

  • @imtboi She did a good job but Fantasia is the icing on the cake. If Oprah had good sense she would have Fastasia record I'm Here for the soundtrack and do away with Jeannette version. It's kind of like Luther Vandross and Dione Warwick's A House is Not Home after Luther sang nobody even knows that Dione originally recorded and released that song first. It's Luther's song like I'm Here is Fantasia's song.

  • I totally agree with you 100% that is tasia's song by far.......

  • I like Fantasia's performance more, it more sincere,emotional, i really felt it.

  • i got to see the show. it is the best thing i have ever seen in my life! my class went there for an art trip. it was just amazing!

    loved it!

  • Lachanze rocked it..I love the depth and richness of her voice..

  • @shoohound so true i love Lachanze she is amazeing

  • Now compare and judge that!!! Spread that rumor....duh!!!

  • Yea if she her stans thoght she was so much better then why their jealous behinds had to start rumors about Fanny being pregnant and Oprah and theother producers must be blind and death beacuse they asked Fanny to stay 4 more months on Brway and have asked her to do special run @the Kennedy Center in DC and guess who will be attending????

  • Fantasia was amazing in DC. So sad its leaving.

  • I was lucky enough to have seen it twice and yes I have the cd and I have it in my Ipod and Iphone too. I believe that in some points Fantasia does a better job and in others Jeanette is better. Nevertheless both are extremely talented singers. Both give bone chilling performances.

  • Fantasia is the best with this song, she will be nominated for an academy award when the color purple musical movie comes out, that's how gr8 she is!

  • ......what up with the lame last note???

    GO FOR IT!!! ITS A POWER ENDING!!!

  • fantasia sings it better though

  • I'm sorry but I have to disagree. Listen to the way Jeannette sings I'm Here. Her intonations are softer and therefore she does a better job of bringing across the fragile nature of her character and the transsition she just made.

  • well that's your opinion..i just love tasia's version better even if the other woman did better than her (which i dnt think) but that's my opinion because im used to taisa's voice and i love for her to sing rough like that

  • I like Fantasia's version because she connects more with it emotionally. There's something raw and fresh about her version also. No disrespect to this woman who sings it on the video though...but I'm just not touched to my core emotionally as I am with Fantasia's version.

  • omg i thought it was just me...

  • @gonzo3882 I think Fantasia does not understand this song like the reality stars

  • @gonzo3882 Fantasia showa this emotion with every song she sings. So was it really a challenge for her? I am just saying it is nothing new for her to do that

  • yayyyy... first comment i loved it
