Rachel Tucker - Wicked - West End Live 2010

[WickedMyster]

Such a stunning voice and that riff at the end is just incredible! I'm seeing her on Saturday and I'm so excited :D

[kbar120]

Amazing singer. Love her in Wicked on Saturday 16/7/11.

[pinkcarrot]

Love how she managed to make this almost a disney song :D

[DucksinBaseballCaps]

Shes bloody brilliant on Wicked, but on this i think she's just doing her own thing, which she has the right to do, but i think we're not used to it as much (obviously)

[TheEvilsquiril]

i feel so sorry for the person whose playing elphaba after her! How the hell do you compete with her??

[TheEvilsquiril]

now that is talent!!!

[WickedlyBlonde16]

she is the best elphaba in the world!!!! the queen of green <3 and queen of riffs but that don't rhyme! :D

[KerryButlerRockz]

now she is amazing...

[HaveASpoonOfMagic]

I think Idina is amazing. She gave the character life and she is the outline for all the other Elphies out there but Rachel is in my mind just as wonderful. I love them both.

[queeveen]

Rachel is just 'Wicked'!!

[gemzn]

Personally, my fav Elphie out of the three ive seen. Im sure all the other performers are better live than on video, so I wont judge them unless ive seen them :) But Rachel just blew me away.

[purpleronnie987]

I saw her when I went to see wicked, she was amazing as usual!!!!!

[colin26colin]

Someone make her stop! She struggled on the first half and then just began belting way too soon, so by the time she got to the end, my ears were bleeding! Earn your right to belt!

[BeckyGauvain11]

@colin26colin she is amazing!!!! you must be listening to something else or have faulty hearing! ;/

[Caatttx]

saw her in Wicked on Saturday. never ever let her stop she's the greatest performer i've ever seen. A M A Z I N G

[ThatBlondieBeckyGirl]

I'll admit, from this performance, I was impressed, but thought Idina was better. I saw Wicked Saturday, and Rachel is the best Elphaba.

[rebeccamia]

I saw Wicked at the Apollo in London a week ago and was completely blown away by Rachel's voice. I agree, she is the best Elphaba as a complete package. I think she was born to play this roll. So much talent!

[Jebbebebbe]

Well I saw her in Londodn and I liked her as Elphaba, she got the character really well and she has an awesome voice! But sadly I think she rushes through all the songs, not giving time to fully enjoy them! And I thought that was kinda sad so the best elphaba ever? No! That's Idina! =)

[giageordiegal]

i agree with @MetalReveries the best Elphaba ever!

[BlazenFire666]

I totally love Idina - have loved her ever since I saw RENT the first time... But I saw Rachel as Elphaba on Wednesday, and totally and utterly fell for her charm and version of the Witch. Totally enthralling and loving. Love you Rachel!

[fe4therduster]

i went to see her but she couldnt be in the performance on the night so i saw her understudy nikki davis jones and i have to say she should NOT be the understudy ... As amazing as Rachel is I have to say i think Nikki is better ... Her version of defying of gravity was the best version i have ever heard

[aboodabi101]

@fe4therduster Nikki was, amazing. I saw her as understudy and I was completely blown away by her voice. I hope she stays and gets Elphaba when the cast changes over. fingers crossed.

[KindaGay]

I'm so happy that i got to see this cast (just a few days ago) and i have to say, although Idina and Kristin started the legacy and they have contributed so much to make the charecters what they are, the current London cast is superb! It exceeded all of my -very high- expectations!

So even thu i never got to see the OBC i'm happy that i got to see this cast, and if i lived in the area i would go see this show once a month :D

[manuspooface]

Great Yes, the best? No. She hits quite a few bad notes.

[alenasa1211]

@manuspooface In this performance she's kinda' more free... however I like that she doesn't sing exactly as you can hear the OST from broadway... Is a different personality.

[ShannieeNooniee]

I Saw Rachel Tucker Live In Wicked Not Long Ago, And No Joke, It Was The Best Show I Have EVER Seen.

[purpleronnie987]

@ShannieeNooniee same:) she was amazing.

[Supersaints65]

I never thought that idina could be matched but Rachel is amazing!!! Unbelievable vocals!

[derogatony]

Rock star.

[MetalReveries]

best Elphaba ever? ..no disrespect, but i think she's even better than Idina Menzel.

[xjellymixx]

@MetalReveries I do have to agree with you there....and i am a BIG Idina fan....but Rachel just gets the character down so beautifully and that voice...brilliant.

[singingfreak94f]

@MetalReveries Disagree. She's good, but she's no Idina. And no Eden Espinosa on No Good Deed.

But she is very talented - I'll give her that.

Sadly, Eden sucks on every other song in Wicked (except No good deed), so I think of Rachel as the next best Elphaba ever.

[WickedlyBlonde16]

@MetalReveries agree entirely!!! best elphie ever is our tucker <3

[TomMcd1]

@MetalReveries I AGREE

[EmmaKat1876]

my favorite elphie. she performs like she IS elphaba! it is fantastic!

[curlytop1993]

AMAZING =O

really want to see her in wicked now!

i always wanted her to win 'i'd do anything'... now i'm glad that she didn't =D

[vickyRowell86]

wow omg awsome 2nd best elphie she may even top idina

[densl92]

wow! last time i went it was the understudy so cant wait to see Rachel in it this week when i go.. amazing! :D

[xxTamara24xx]

i went to wee wicked on friday and she was elphaba..she. is. amazinggggggg!!

[RozLaChimmer]

Can't stop smiling, this is brilliant! What a voice and epic performer! <3

[xKaraAnnJx]

I missed this for my brothers wedding - Was. Not. Happy!

[karmincacicc]

OMG, Amazing voice!!! I want to see Wicked with her.

[justmecorey]

Amazing! Thats what you get from Ireand!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Love you rachel for representing us! :) Amazing! Hope to get to see you next month!

[dancewitmeox]

her so happy i could melt is just amazing. IMMENSE! and she had been ill before this? what i wouldnt give to sing like that..

[forgiveninasong]

Her "feeling things I've never felt!" is so amazing! <3

[Winchester1Witch]

Amazing! 

[madasbal]

She has so much energy and charisma!

Truly a treasure to watch and listen to. So happy she didn't win the Nancy programme. No way does Nancy show her off even half as much as Elphaba does!

[pingskiie]

@madasbal Couldn't agree more!

She was sensational!

[howlongleft]

WOW is all i can say!!!

[dancerboi12341]

fuck me this girl can SING!!!!! amaaaazing

[lowrri]

So glad I was here to see her sing!

I love the 'melt' riff. That belt at the end was phenomenal!

So going to see Wicked for a 3rd time after seeing this!

[giageordiegal]

[operastar1994]

[giageordiegal]

[bigbriman22]

[jcwelover]

[horselover100]

I saw Rachel a month ago and she was fantastic, by far the best Elphaba for me!

[lyndsii93]

She was amazing! i was in the crowd and then i went and saw wicked in the evening, for the 2nd time :D she has an amazing voice! :)

[gooeylooey14]

i think the way she riffs on the notes is really good - better than a lot of artists in today's charts for that matter...

[xIGoByBubblex]

Rachel is amazing!!!! She sung this fab! I love her :)

[jopsig55]

[Itsnotlying27]

She sounds bloody fantastic...those riffs...im now even more excited about seeing her...only two weeks away till i get to go (twice!)

[emufairy21]

she was the best of the whole day!

[orla712]

poor rachel! she was still spectacular! but she was clearly sick! that could :(

[ZiggzHSMrules]

Oh, I shoulda gone. I went last year.

Personally i preferred Alexias last year (but she was the first I heard so...)

[hmfrx]

i was so glad i was there :)

[wheety1621]

how comes shes did west end live but not the 2 shows today?? she not well?? she doesnt sound it!!!

[Sam4God]

[wheety1621]
