  • I effing love her accent!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Are you kidding me?! Listen to that "Fiyero!" ...damn.

  • WOWWWWWWW!!! Awesome, I wish I had the vocal capacity Rachel has. You can see how passionate she is about her job and that she treats it as a career, rather than a chore, you can see some performers just want to rush their way through the performances however you can tell Rachel feels the words,can build up beautifully to climaxes and riff with the right emotion. Such talent is rare, all the best to her :) x

  • Is best than Eden, in acting and singing, the fiyero of Rachel is more powerful

  • Search for : 't Is nooit goed (Dutch version of no good deed) by Willemijn Verkaik, BEST ELPHABA IN THE WORLD

  • ahhhh still LOVE the percussion in this!!! it seems the guitarist has taken over the drummer latelyy though as amazing as louise dearman's last show was i thought the percussion that night was really lame...

  • As a big Kerry Ellis fan, I believe it's difficult to match her but loved this performance by Rachel Tucker! She certainly makes the role her own!!

  • this just gives me goose bumps - i've seen her... she is utterly amazing, the second time she blow me away! and made me cry...several times xD

  • O.O Wow, how is this even humanly possible?!?

  • @meganandlucyXD Rachel is no human, she's is a Goddess :)

  • Best Elphaba <3

    

  • speechless after this. Absolutely amazing!!!!! 

  • THE. best. No good deed. Ever.

  • She does have amazing riffs in her vocal and I in no way mean for this to sound as though I dislike her performance but .. After seeing and hearing the original cast ie; Idina as the lead, I have to say this does fall short for me personally but I do understand why the rest of you all seem to like it, she is very very good.

  • Comment removed

  • Her "Fiyero" is my favorite ever. -3

  • She ROCKS this.

  • You always see these 'Best...(song here) - (Artist Here)' but for once I actually agree. This recording is absolutely flawless. Her voice is just WOW. She blew me away when I saw her in April 2010 and I know she will again in June.

  • RACHEL TUCKER IS MY HERO <3 her and this song is amazing!! x

  • That 1 person who disliked this video clearly had a spasm in his finger and clicked the thumbs down button

  • Listen to Dee's "again" where she goes REALLY high. Now THAT is amazing.

    But Rachel as a whole has more anger and emotion. She has nice riffs like Eden, but unlike eden doesnt throw them in at seemingly pointless moments, but uses them to accentuate her voice.

  • I saw this girl peform last night.... she is literally INCREDIBLE.... ive never heard anything like it in my life.x

  • Ah here she is, her voice my God her voice!! Stunning....blew me away!

  • I think 0 likes speaks for itself. AMAZING.

  • god she's gorgeous. and by god, those riffs are spine tingling

  • Fierce. 

  • I love Rachel Tucker, I saw her and Louise perform this Tuesday and Wednesday, Wednesday I was sitting in the second row of the stalls right next to the stage, and these two are just superb~ Rachel Tucker's "No Good Deed" simply blew me away on both nights, so I had to come and listen to it again. Thank you for uploading it~ :3

  • saw wicked on tuesday with Rachel Tucker and Louise Dearman, and it was simply astonishing spine tingling the whole way through.

  • Her final 'again' was astonishing.

  • I saw the show on Saturday with this cast, it was really good. :)

  • that 'Fiero' gives me goosebumps!

  • Coming from an unbiased listener (I haven't seen the whole "Wicked" musical) and from listening to many of the Elphabas sing this -- Idina, Eden, Rachel, Shoshana, Saycon, Kerry, and more-- I honestly think that Rachel and Eden give the most justice to this particular song in the role of an upset, angry, defeated "wicked" witch. They do it with amasing execution vocally... I mean, I love Idina and all...but many fans are primed and biased because she was the originator,

  • @malcolmlewis013 Every Elphaba actress brings something to the table. Me myself I prefer Rachel Tucker for No Good Deed, but listen to Dee R. for defying gravity. I like her "Look to the western sky" and "Renown"

  • Comment removed

  • this is still my absolute favourite recording of No Good Deed on the entirety of Youtube!!! not only are the vocals AMAZING but the percussion in the orchestra sound epic!!! not many recordings really capture it

  • She's so amazing I wanted to cry.. When I went to see it I was in tears at the end.. Rachel just puts so much EMOTION into it :D

  • I mean Nancy, damn iPad keyboard!

  • I was "Idina all the way!" until I saw Rachel in August, she BLEW ME AWAY! Her slide on some of the notes give me chills. Bet she's chuffed she didn't win " I'd Do Anything", I'd rather be Elphaba than a Nanyang any day!

  • Tht slide on circumvented at 2:43 made my LIFE!

  • Im Speechless. You shoulda seen my face when i went to watch it. dayum this girls got a voice on her!

  • I think Dee Roscioli did the best ._.

  • So happy when I heard she was going to stay as Elphaba into 2012

  • Oh my gosh. This woman is amazing! Her riffs NEVER fail to impress, she is an amazing actress and portrays Elphaba as best ive ever seen. She is just stunning!

  • RACHEL TUCKER IS A GODESS.

    She's even more amazing live!

    You can literally see the tears streaming down her face, you almost can't believe you are actually there watching it!!

    Her Elphaba is extremely close to the book and in my opinion, she portrays it better than anyone else ever has.

    She IS the best elphaba there has ever been, no doubt about it.

    Sorry, rant over, can you tell I frikkin love this woman?! x

  • I want a London Cast Recording - but with this cast:

    Kerry Ellis or Alexia Khadime

    Dianne Pilkington

    Oliver Tompsett

    Harriet Thorpe

    Sam Kelly

  • she's not Elphaba still is she?

  • @ImABroadwayLuver She is until December this year.

  • @theleonlangdale She just extended her contract through 2012!

  • @ImABroadwayLuver She definitely is, I saw her perform the role on the 28th June 2011

  • amazing rachel!!!

  • Those Drums are amazing!!

  • her last 'again' sounded off to me on that top note, like it was a little flat.

  • I really dislike her again riff at the end...

  • I saw her last night for the first time and wasn't expecting how good she is! Wow move over Kerry Ellis and the rest of em! There's a new Elphaba in town! ;)

  • they do a cast cd for all of the london cast like kerry ellis and dianne pilkington and rachel and liouse and that would be EPIC!!!!

  • I generally don't like her at all, but from the Fiyero riff til the end was pretty beastly.

  • I love Rachel, I hope that when she leaves she comes back again. I cant wait to hear her last show, its gonna be crazy

  • Seeing this tomorrow, can't wait!

  • I was at this performance was the best ever her acting just topped it off in this! tears where streaming and yet she still had the voice to nail a vocal performance like this she is just incredible x and this was a wenesday aswell lol x

  • That second fieeerooo is just amazing :D

    Rachel Tucker must be the best Alphaba ever!

  • @EurovisionGek2011 *Elphaba

  • I have been listening to this for one and a half hours - non stop. Gives me chills - It never gets old!!! <3 RachelTucker <3

  • she's my celebrity crush...<3

  • I just go all goosey at FIYEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! :-).

  • Rachel is amazing end of. I seen her for my first time about 2 months ago when i seen the show for my 5th time and i was so shocked at her performence it was everything Elphaba should do . And when she sang defying gravity i was crying the whole way during that song and it only happens if someone does something to me like what she Rachel did i could not explain the emotions i was going through it was amazing then i started to shake god Rachel your amazing cant wait to see you again in april .x

  • this girl actually has SSOO many ways of doing her FIYERROOOOO, just blows me away!

  • love her growllssss on 'goesssss' :D

    And another stunning FIYERO riff by rachelll :D

  • Rachel outperformes the other elphabas. end of. actually immense!

  • I'm going to see Wicked in London on the 19th, is she still going to be at the Apollo Victoria Theatre? I really want to see her! She's my favourite Elphaba.

  • @OceansBlue12 I saw Rachel she's amazing,BUT If rachel won't be there,there will be Nikki,she Does an AMAZING Elphaba she's a good singer and a STUNNING actress. I saw them both

  • better than idina! fiyero!<3

  • better than idina! fiyero!<3

  • Every time I listen to this I love her more and more. How perfect is that 'Fiyeroooo'! Gives me chills! She is certainly my favourite Elphaba!

  • FIYEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

  • LOVE HOW THE DRUMMER GIVES IT BEANS!!!!

    Saw rachel for the 3rd time on monday and i know people will hate me for saying this but she was not on top form!! she was wobbly for most of the show except for when she was belting!! It hasnt put me off AT ALL i still love love love her and will defo see her again just a tiny bit disaponited!!HOWEVER lousie was on top form and the new fiyero MARK EVANS was AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Oooh just georgous! Definitely the best Elphaba Ive seen up to date! I definitely think they should record a live recording with Rachel like they did with Legally Blonde, would be amazing!

  • I think I died at the Fiyero riff... Holy mother of freaking god...

  • @percycatmill5 the Fiyero riff i am like SHIT THE BED GO GIRLLLLLLLL, SHE IS MY HERO.

  • @HannahChristina12 she's becoming mine.. Jesus she's good! x

  • If any one would be interested in getting a london recording done I heard that if you ask the merch guys for one they have to mark how many people ask for one to send back to the producers to try and persuade them to get a london cd done,. its worth a shot.

  • @TheWicked02 Omg that would be absolutely fab! especially with Rachel Tucker.

  • @TheWicked02 Hi sorry, How can I get in touch with them? After going to see the current cast (twice) their voices surpass the original soundtrack. I think its a realy good idea to have them do a CD. Oh maybe a recorded for DVD version.

  • @TheWicked02 If you wanted to be taken seriously at getting a cast recording you should set a facebook page up and get all the wicked fans who would buy a recording from London to join. Then let the producer see how many people you have on the page and would therefore buy it (i am sure with the wicked fans over the world it would do well) a recording is a big expense and time consuming thing to do but something like that might give them a nudge (easy to set up too). I agree they should do one!

  • Rachel Tucker, perfection. I went to Wicked last thursday and it was a dream come true, i love it and can watch it over and over!!!

    London CD with this cast THERE HAS TO BE ONE!

  • She is so amazing. IMO this is even better than Kerry's last. Goodness knows what her last show is gonna be like. It'll be orgasmic!

  • Wasn't she found on a tv show? Wow..

  • I LOVE HER FIYERO RIFF!!

    She did it when I saw Wicked last Saturday - I nearly died in my seat. It was amaziingggg, Love to the Tucker!!!!!! <3

  • Omg, I am loving all the RIFFS! AMEHZING! <3

  • hi do you have the full show for trade please

  • Was there on Monday, 22nd November 2010. Rachel Tucker and Sarah Earnshaw were FANTASTIC )))

    First time seeing WICKED !! Going again in 2 weeks in London again. ))

  • I wish there were video of this. You can tell that she is SO much improved from the video of this number that is floating around on Youtube. She is incredible. This bit always ALWAYS makes me shiver and want to cry. She's so passionate; it's amazing the way she can belt out the high notes, yet still have such passion in them.

  • If they don't record a London CD with this cast, it will be criminal.

  • @pilchard96 Rachel Tucker, perfection. I went to Wicked last thursday and it was a dream come true, i love it and can watch it over and over!!!

    London CD with this cast THERE HAS TO BE ONE! i agreee, it will be criminal if one isn't made!

  • @HannahChristina12 Oh hell yeah! I saw it 8th Jan, vocally she was incredible, but i was 3rd Row from the front, dead centre - her acting is beyond words! Such a powerful performance - in NGD she was actually crying with anger and fustration! And not to forget Louise, her voice is absolute perfection, search for a recent recording of her NOMTW, her "the wicked dieeeeeeee alone" is a audio orgasm, so so perfect!

    The ensemble are flawless, as are all the supporting characters... Just perfect!

  • @pilchard96 I listen to that "die alone" bit repeatedly!

  • @UTubeMusicification Aha same! as good as the recordings have been recently (from mattcookie btw ;), there is no comparison to hearing it for real - when watching videos/audios, it feels like they aren't real people, like a movie, when seeing it in real life it is so much more powerful!

  • @pilchard96 i could listen to this over and over and still get goosebumps.

    it is just perfection. i want to go back!

  • @HannahChristina12 I saw the matinee, i would have happily sat and waited for the evening show. It is unbelievable, and @percycatmill5 try hearing it in real life, when you can feel her incredible belt in the air around you!

  • gREAT OF EVER!

  • @robertlagestee

    I think Rachel sings this and DG a lot better than Kerry to be honest. I just think she is a much stronger singer with a lot more power.

  • @welshjoe21 I am not saying that Kerry is better I just really like the way Kerry did the last 'again', it was simple and yet powerful.

  • Amazing! Only thing I just can't seem to like is the last 'again'. That should be more Kerry-like and then it will be pure perfection!

  • w.o.w

  • @tjadee14 like to see you try.

  • i want to like the last AGAIN.... but i just don't.... it doesn't go with the music and it almost sounds like she's sung the wrong note. I'd be VERY surprised if the producer allows her to do that.... and i kinda hope not.

  • @unidan82 I think she just needs to hold that top note a little longer, and then it would fit in to the music. Nobody has ever done it like Rachel (that I can think of), but there have been other Elphabas that went up to that note and it sounds great because they held it longer. And actually that is my one complaint on some of Rachel's performance, she is really strong and then barely holds the high note at the end of NGD.

  • @moviefreak316

    actually i think you're right :) i heard one where it's longer and it sounds incredible :)

  • @moviefreak316 At the performance i was at, she held the top just the right length... Proper spine tingling beauty. My dad isnt at all musical but he noticed it and turned round astounded!

  • That last Again is amazing! She is the first Elphaba that has done it that way, right? I hope she keeps it!

  • Wow!!! One of the best 'No good deed' i've ever heard!!! Love Rachel. She is my nr 1 Elphaba :)

  • i was there when she did this and my god it was incredible fourth time ive seen her and 7th time ive seen the show and this was the best no good deed ive eva seen both vocally and acting wise! her acting was phenomenal in this song!

  • I've said this before, and I'll say it again. She is everything Kerry was, and more. I personally got the impression that Kerry was drop dead amazing, but she never really tried that hard and (other than her last show), she seemed to be bored all the time.

    Rachel, on the other hand, has Kerry's talent and boy does she use it. There's so much passion, and so many riffs without overdoing it! I loved Alexia so much, but Rachel is definitely a more than worthy replacement.

  • wowwwwwwwwwwwww :D she sung it exaqctly like this on the 19th minus the amazing again at the end!!!

  • Holy god. That 'fiyero' was incredible. She is so damm talented.

  • WOW!

  • I was there!!! :) It was SO SO amazing!!!! Best performance i've ever seen!!

  • can u post no one mourns the wicked please :)

  • saw the matinee. she was amazing. i loved the act that sarah and lee were giggling a bit in the munchkin land scene:)

  • I think by the end of her run Rachel Tucker is going to go down as the best Elphaba that there has ever been...certainly vocally.

  • @welshjoe21 Yup, I think so too. She is incredible. She beats Idina in my books- and Idina always used to be my favourite Elphie!!

  • @welshjoe21 I actually get choked up every time I hear "If you can't find me, look to the western skies," in any recording of the song. I loved the song so much when she sang it. ^^'

  • @welshjoe21 she was the best i have seen. by far

  • @welshjoe21 she's the best acting wise aswel! She acts it close to the book and it really works!! she's just the best in general. x

  • @welshjoe21 i would very much put her just behind Jemma Rix. but yes. she certainly has an amazing voice.

  • @welshjoe21 Couldn't agree with you more! I've seen three Elphaba's and she was by far the best!

  • @welshjoe21 not as good as idina,shoshana or kerry!!

  • @TheTomBales As much as I love Kerry Ellis, I think she was a terrible Elphaba. She was not suited to the part at all. Idina and Shoshana were wonderful too, but I agree with welshjoe21, that Rachel Tucker could quite possibly be the best Elphaba.

  • W-O-A-H. love.

  • Wow!!!!!! Words cannot express how amazing this woman is! WOW! I jumped when she did that riff on the last note. She is finally my favourie Elphaba.

  • oh my god - i was NOT expecting that! she always does something different with it and does it so amazingly well. What I wouldn't give to be her xxx thanks for uploading

  • Saw yesterday's matinee and Rachel ended with the same fantastic 'again'! Shame we didn't get the spine-tingling 'Fiyero' but she obviously can't do it at every performance! :) Best song of the show- so much power, emotion and great acting! She is soooo good now!

  • Wow her No Good Deed is her best song in the show! So much emotion and power! Love those immense riffs! The ending is superb!

  • omg that is one of the best "again" I have ever heard. The power behind it and the chord its in is just so haunting
