Mein Herr - Cabaret

[rorytibberon]

great performance!i love liza minelli and specially natasha richardson,but this woman has a style of her own and her movements are so classy and sexy!

[Twaits332]

Both Liza's and Rachelle's are great in their own right. Liza gave meaning to the piece while Rachelle took it and amplified it with the right amount of sexuality and feeling

[Pr0fessorScience]

I don't care about her pronunciation and I certainly don't want vulnerability in this song - that's definitely not what it's about. It's about passion, boldness, sexual confidence, and humor. Rachelle Rak nailed every one. Spectacularly.

[robertobordino]

fantastic

[AOG93]

The one from the film hasn´t been bettered yet because, it my opinion, it not only had Liza but, most importantly, it had Fosse to direct it.

[shirazbailywood]

Rachelle is SO much better than Liza! O.O

[theoriginalchrisjay]

for those who haven't seen the film or play, the character singing this song is an American whose German isn't very good to begin with, and it stands to reason that she would perform the song with a sexy American accent versus an accurate German one. So don't let the words cloud the message and enjoy the song! excellent work imho

[MikexDuh]

@theoriginalchrisjay the character, sally, is actually british. the rest is right though.

[ifeeltiredsleepy]

@MikexDuh This song is from the film version though, where Sally is American. It's a bit complicated because she's British in the stage musical.

[theoriginalchrisjay]

@ifeeltiredsleepy right that's what i was going 2 say. in the movie version they took some liberties and that's the one i'm more accustomed to (my dad was big on show tunes - don't say it i know you're thinkin' it) Either way, she's NOT German :)

[pitchblackstrawberry]

SPELLBINDING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kaorukamiya15]

me gusta mas este sonido un poco mas lento y sensual que el que hace liza, y la voz es muy genial!!!

[Lauherna2306]

@kaorukamiya15 si u.u para la epoca de liza era como... el boom era simplemente lo del momento

[JubalCalif]

Heavens to Murgatroid! Such a sexy & fun number! A sheer delight to watch! THANKS for posting! You've MADE my day & my week! CHEERS! :-)

[ClaqueContaptoe]

Es buena pero nadie puede superar a Liza...

[Kamohawk22]

alan cumming destroys this

[goldkehlchen1993]

her german "lieber" is strange^^ she must have pronunced it like the "e" in "Herr", then it would be perfect. but she still is very very cool and good!

[markciconne]

Who gives a damn if she's saying "libeuuur", "liber" or "sayonara": the perfomance was GREAT!

[xXJulaxXx]

Liebuuuuur Herr :D Someone should say to her, that this is really wrong :D funny^^

Liebeeeer Herr!

[scratchingpostable]

Too bad her German pronunciation was off. "Liebu Herr?" Was soll dass denn sein?

[unknownchronicles]

Her swagger is different from Minelli's. I'm not saying that it's worse or better

[NeuwirthFan]

woooow!! that was perfect!

rachelle rak <3

[XMalice]

She did wonderfully, but the sexuality seems forced.

[dollyvalkyrie]

@XMalice

f**k sexuality voice is so bold and perfect she can sit in corner and sing I would absolutely wet my pants!

[CPRules0103]

my best friend and her dance group danced to this and they were really good.

[stewmo9]

The tuba makes this version the best I ever heard.

[stewmo9]

The tuba makes this version I ever heard

[Exactorr]

perfect

[MoonPhantom]

If people don't mind me say so. Bob Fosse were really a man who understand how to appreciate womens sexiness probably.

I mean, Hollywood mainstream is filled with sad men who pops hot women in everywhere and idolises them, Bob Fosse was probably pretty obsessed by women also, it happens with some men. but he presented their sexuality and a mans obsession with them in a way that genuinely is sexy and I can appreciate and deal with. just watch "All That Jazz" if you want to understand what I mean

[MmeLEnfer]

@MoonPhantom Great comment.

[dennniseable]

well i prefer this version to liza minelli's!

[chemistryprofessor]

Beginning is way too slow.  She is off pitch and it is more noticable due to this. Dancing is nice though.

[lunedejour]

she's a good dancer but i prefer Liza Minelli...and i think this version is too slow compared to the original one...

[sazangora]

sorry i agree. liz minnelli has much more vulnerability in her performance

[ItisTime64]

The choreography kinda sucks.

[broadwayloverny10]

I think Rachelle did very very very VERY good. But i prefer Liza's version better. The choreography is a little different here and the tempo is a lot slower it added a good 30 seconds on. I still like this version a lot but Liza's is better sworry

[blueceleste]

that was an awesome version of it!!!

[bugoy2004]

The best interpretation of Mein Herr and the best execution of Fosse choreography.

[IFknHateUTube]

i kind of like this song and that makes me scared. does this mean i'm gay?

[Peachinub]

@IFknHateUTube Of course not =P It means you have taste other than what the other drones in the society listen to like Lady Gaga =D

[DancerNamedRachel]

@IFknHateUTube liking something doesn't make you gay, and even if you were there is absolutly nothing wrong with being gay so don't worry about it.

[IFknHateUTube]

@DancerNamedRachel i didn't say there was something wrong with it, i just don't want to be gay but i like this song what is going on

[sazangora]

@IFknHateUTube you don't have to be gay to like stuff - but why mention it?

[bugoy2004]

@IFknHateUTube : I think you are, just your username itself says it all :)

[verity617]

Well I think she well and truly pulls it off! This lady has one hell of a voice!

[Catymor]

Actually, this choreography is not adapted from the Broadway musical. It is the choreography of the movie. Fosse, unfortunately, did not choreograph the stage musical.

[KaitouHotaru]

She's got some amazing pipes, but I have to admit, I immediately reject any attempt at singing Sally Bowles without an English accent. In spite of the hack job the movie did on the story causing the world to believe the contrary, Sally Bowles is supposed to be English and the main protagonist, Cliff btw not Brian, is American.

[melanoche666]

j'ai dansé sur cette chanson en cours de danse. En playback. C'était jsute superbe et j'ai passé unmerveilleux moment grâce à cette fabuleuse chanson !

[lordtroah]

I prefer her ending as opposed to Liza, but The rest of the song was way too over done.

[BackFighter691]

pls give me the lyrics....

[BackFighter691]

can teach me the lyrics of that.. i like the song...

plssssssssssssssss

[firechica]

We must know that Liza WAS NOT The original Sally Bowles and shouldn't be a standard (i'm not too fond of her myself). I personally think this is a much better performance and is more suited for the stage where as Liza's performance was best for the movie

[1etiole]

if you want to see liza rent the dvd. this is rachelle.

say "hello".

[voodoo4936]

The orchestra is all over the place, first crawling at a snail's pace, then moving way too fast. The singer over-enunciates every damn word and totally ignores the coquettish sexuality of the song in favor of showboating. And where's the passion, the fire? The choreography is too polished and lackadaisical. I know it's not supposed to be a carbon copy of Liza's performance, but this still could have been much better.

[NYCJamesChristian]

She is a bit over for the part. Liza had that deep slow sizzle. Subtle but powerful. But a fine performance.

[maidenofrohan]

its overly done in my opinion but its still good. though i agree the liboo herr is irritating.

[UandMeKid]

I've seen Rachelle perform numerous times and she is a very gifted performer. Always felt she could have really made it if she had found the right musical vehicle.

[musicalbabe27]

gotta admit. very good. but shes got nothing on liza. she is the true sally

[EpicFailProductions1]

Rachelle Rak is amazing and you can't compare people to the originals because they'll never be the same, plus how do you know if you had seen Rachelle first the tables would have been turn?

[megsta21]

thank you

very well put

[EpicFailProductions1]

your welcome :D

i've met and danced with Pam personally so I know first hand how amazing she is

[megsta21]

umm...people. she is amazing.

shut up

[PhilipWunelle]

Now I realize how amazing Liza is.

This doesn't even compare to hers.

[NYCmusictheatreboy]

I take class Rachelle. She is fabulous!

[magicfire13]

This woman is dragging the tempo, Liza was perfect. And Liza was much cuter, fits the character better. Oh and this one says "Bye-Bye mein Li-Boo-herr" Wtf?

[xxsieerraaaxx]

i totally agree.

[phantanachronism]

the libooherr was annoying me too!

[tarynactress]

There is NO DOUBT that Liza is better. I just have this to say.

It's LIVE.

Pretty awesome for live.

[lippilelion]

impeccable

[beadtific]

I love this. Could I request Rachelle's other solo? "I Gotcha?" I think that's it.

[theBestArts]

It's now up...
