[juliawright12]

@musicalgal11 I will be so much your not.

[musicalgal11]

I'm better at this than she is!!!!!

[Actors317]

If no one will make a theatrical film of "13", then I Will.

[sushigirls11]

OMG Cat and Jade!!!!!!! <3<3<3

[1Sandie11]

@sushigirls11 They're Not Even In This Song

[yelhsaian]

Natalie Maguire's version is really, really good.

[Loukaaa13]

<3

[Kartsurfer17]

My schools doin this musical i got a call back hope i get a lead role

[babycakes55521]

@Kartsurfer17 my school is doing 13 to! good luck

[jeniferthompson13]

It is an awesome song

[XxPearceIsFiercexX]

Allie Trimm <3

[MayIJustAsk]

I'm auditioning for the premier of 13 in the west end, but she's just so amazing I could never even compare to her. But I'm still insanely exited :3

[FreelyForgotten]

@MayIJustAsk AHH me too!

[SuperSarah799]

I want your voice !

[DailyTweak]

Can I have your voice? Just for a day? Please?

[boss14841]

as a serious singer i would litterally die to have her voice its just so PERFET AND THEN ON THE FIRST DAY OF CLASSES HE ACTS LIKE YOU NOT EVEN THERE HOW DOES SHE BELT THAT SO BEAUTIFULLY

[musicluv2015]

@SarahKent00000 well then they dont know what it means to be a friend <3

[musicanimerox]

i wish i could've seen the original cast i wish it could continue :(

[TheIndieGirlxx]

Singing this tomorrow for an audition for the musical -_________-

[oreoprincess16]

OMG! this is like my favorite song right now! im singing this song for my show choir audition!

[abbyangel9]

@oreoprincess16 I did it for mine! I promise it works great! I hope you did well!

[thestring51]

down here in new orleans 13 was fun when i was 15

[Casspep99]

Isn't this Ariana Grande?

Wish i found a good friend. I do have one, but we had to move a way and i only get to see her like every 5 months. But every other friend i have, is mean to me

[nicolemar196]

@Casspep99 no it is Allie Trimm. :P Ariana was Charlotte, and Patrice's understudy. :)

[Avatarlover85]

@Casspep99 No, this is the amazing Allie Trimm. :)

[musicanimerox]

@Casspep99 no this is Allie Trimm who played Patrice .Ariana played Charlotte :D

[SamiHilleshiem]

15 people don't have any friends.

[lumpyspacequeen]

there are auditions for this musical at my comunity theatre. but I'm 12.:P

[772244880]

@lumpyspacequeen soo im 15 and i tryed out for 13..... bc i could've gotten lucy she looks a little older so u could still try out just go for someone who looks younger

[domoroxskype123]

i really love this song because i have this "friend" and we both like the same guy but she is dating my ex which she stole from me and now she expects me to give up the guy i like i dont think she knows what it means to be a friend ;(

[shouldbedoinmyhw]

this song is so touching and allie trimm does an amzing job. the last paragraph could describe me and my ex-boyfriend if you change the first line from "if someone moves in 'round the corner" to "if someone meets you at camp" and change "the first day of classes" to "the last day of camp". we had to break up at the end of camp because of long distance problems but now he acts like i don't even exist and won't even talk to me like on facebook or anything :( .

[dancergrl4423]

i love this song im gonna get the sheet music :)

[4EverTomahawk]

i hope youre hearing this song EMMA. :(

[4EverTomahawk]

i would like to play her part if my school ever did this play, but i could never reach that note at 2:40 without it sounding like a bird was dying. 3:

[spiritgirl226]

@4EverTomahawk ask your chorus teacher for help with the note (they know every thing) I now have a pretty good vocal range because i worked with my chorus teacher :) hope that helps. I know how you feel I still can't hit very high notes :/

[4EverTomahawk]

@spiritgirl226 thx. lol you sound like a motivational speaker. :)

[spiritgirl226]

@4EverTomahawk lol thanks i just know what its like to want a part and thinking i can't because i can't hit some notes but chorus teachers can always help, musicals and plays are my life :) and i'd hate to think if i had given up where i would be :) i'm just a positive person :)

[carriebear175]

@4EverTomahawk thats what I thought at first when I first heard this song. I was like "no way I could ever sing this!" and then I started to sing it over and over again and i almost have it to perfection. Just keeping working on it and it will come.(:

[steffiirmen]

anyone chords? :-)

[somerandomgirlgeek]

I love this song. This song makes me cry sometimes. I love the way she sings. It has always been my dream to go to Broadway, but I can't. I'm just too shy. And besides, I'm not good enough anyway. I guess I'll always stay a dreamer...

[happiness2x]

@somerandomgirlgeek Never give up on something you can't go one day thinking about, as I have always had in my head. I want to be a Broadway star so bad, but I don't have the best voice, or some Johnny Depp, but I never want to be shy about something I want so badly. Try some productions sometimes, cause every little step gets you closer :) I bet you would be a superstar, :D

[AliGoodwin]

umm ... missing something, lyrics?

[101californiachick]

@AliGoodwin desc.

[AliGoodwin]

@101californiachick oh ... i feel dumb now

[klemousie]

Lol! I thought it was ironic that in the comments of a song about friendship, people are calling people "idiot".

Go, Allie Trimm. She's dazzling.

[fuckviri]

who sang this?

[ImADivaSays]

@fuckviri ALLIE TRIMM

[Politoed89]

[Politoed89]

[aniciarox123]

[Shua26]

[skybluesweatband]

[ImRightHere13]

[OneEgyptianHope]

Who is the singer?

[1Sandie11]

@OneEgyptianHope Allie Trimm

[theofficialdeonevans]

Do they have a dvd of the original cast?

[carriebear175]

I think i want to try out for Patrice for a local theater that is doing this show. Any advice?

[murphybrown22]

@carriebear175

I'm Patrice for a local show myself and the best thing is to just be confident and sing with a lot of feeling and emotion in your voice. when your singing you want the people watching you to feel that your hurt but your also angry but your giving a good point to the audience. :)

[startariotbr0]

senai firned

.00

[singingandacting104]

my friends need to no this song....i do verything for them and they dont even say thanks

[stormy2792]

[55alexiskenzie55]

[summerluvin123]

"nothing is harder than learning a friend isn't real"...story of my life.

[secretkeeper963]

[virginiathegreat91]

haha 13 people disliked this....lol....13.

[Selendomono]

Don't you love hearing young people sing well? Because you KNOW they are going to go on to be even more incredible and it's a nice thought. Allie Trimm is one of the only younger singers that I love.

[AmberMidge]

My best friend sent me this!¡ Thank u Rebecca!¡

[RizmaRocker77]

Uggh Im singing this sonog for an upcoming audition and Im freaking out. I got some of it down but the line where it goes: "Your firends the first one there".... very hard when it gets to the word friend... lets hope I dont die

[rockhard456]

[mei1041]

@RizmaRocker77 its actually really easy

[antiKWM]

[zoelesmis]

hahahaha but i'm proud of myself for even giving it a go:)

[FloraLovesSean3OH3]

I love this song :)

Im Patrice in our school play and this is kinda like being a thirteen year old

can anyone give me some tips for the performance? :)

[Thepianofreak17]

@FloraLovesSean3OH3 warm up with long tones

[animefan4evr412]

i love this song so much and will probably use it for an audition, but i relate to it way too much :( it makes me kinda sad.

[Myheartbeatsferyou]

Love this song <3

[avachica]

We are doing this musical at my school... I've sang this song about 400 times this evening because I want to be patrice SO BAD like you don't even know.

[K9GM3]

Wow... Towards the end, she sounds genuinely angry. Without sacrificing anything in terms of singing. That girl's got talent.

[HelloGatoProductions]

Which one is Patrice? I know its not the one on the far right but who else could it be?

[AquaTheMotail]

@HelloGatoProductions Allie Trimm...or the girl with her arms out standing next to the guy in the red.

[SouljaGirl101004]

@HelloGatoProductions Patrice is the 8th one from the left

[IfItAintYouBaby]

@HelloGatoProductions she's the 1 in da vest

[127DayDreamer]

[mexgurl521]

my friend sang this in our mini talent show for chorus and she is AMAZING. she can hit all the high notes perfectly!! i love this song (:

[BlueEyedGracie16]

How do I hit that D? "He acts like you're not even THERE."

[itzurgurlc]

i want this part. auditions in september. <3

[xaykocys]

All the songs from this musical are so catchy...but the only thing that bothers me is that it seems uncharacteristic for a musical about thirteen year olds to not have more upbeat songs

[broadwaylifealways4]

im playing Kendra its going to be so fun

[B1A1Y1L1E1I1G1H]

UGH i have to sing this for the 5th grade celebration thingy at school!!!! I HATE DIS SONG!!!!!

[sleuther17]

I'm singing this for voice lessons :)

[Cheerleader4Life109]

singing ether this or lamest place in the world for my talent show this year ? decisions decision :))

[Selendomono]

Wow.... hard to believe she was only 13 when she sang this... I looked it up and I expected her to have been an older kid who was younged down for the role

[Tacoflavoredkiss1]

I can tottaly relate to this song right now

[HannaahDarlinn]

i am singing this song solo at my theatre school :)

[xaviourgodd]

This song is great! Allie has the best voice for her age. This song would be great for performing. :)

[BabyChola100]

[twinklemoviestar]

[cocoshamoco]

@MaryBridget12 kay trust me im 13 i hate my life im depressed slowly but surely better im always sad i dont have any friends im always by myself the only true friend that i have is far away and i only get to talk to her on msn plus life is always unfair for a 13 year old

@InvaderZimMokima17 Dont be a smart ass.

[InvaderZimMokima17]

@ToRyTiGeR ok

[Iced0Popsicles]

For slivermoon22:

Don't do a song from the musical. It's unproffessional unless that's your quota. I suggest you do something that shows your vocal range. I'm actually a proffesional performer (I got a small part on Broadway ;)) so I wanted to help you out. And there are wigs since you're a blonde.

[slivermoon22]

i realy want this part but im blonde and everyone says ur gonna get kendra ur gonna get kenda but i dont want her sud i sing this song or lamest place to audion for her

[TaylortheTuckerGirl]
