  • i like

  • Pretty fly for whitebread XD best white version Ive heard of this song

  • This entire video encompasses my love for natalie. lol

  • Sing it girl!!!

  • wow girl can sing! Only at the end it was kinda flat at 1:42 but still the whole of the song was awesome! even if they were laughing but still she was not distracted...

  • @yhpap2 lol, I know. The flat was intentional though. She has done the same thing in many songs she has performed for the comedic value it adds.

  • @yhpap2 It wasn't flat, it was sharp and she did it on purpose. On her resume it says, "can sing flat or sharp on demand."

  • Yyou can sing! I like when people can sing more than just one type of way or style! I can too and I love the gift!

  • omg LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!

  • this went from dead funny to dead serious..she can sang..notice i said sang!!

  • I love how she is super opera in the beggining. haha. She was a cute performer and very talented.  loved it. :)

  • ROFLOL@ she poking fun...she definitely can SANG!!!

  • @SamuelXavier427 and why is that? Natalie has been up-and-coming for several years now, proving that she has an AMAZING voice. She is currently working with the new tour of Les Mis. What makes this song strictly a "black woman" song? Because it has soul? Well, my friend, soul is definitely something Natalie has. Just watch more of her videos.

  • she betta go ahead. I was a little afraid in the beginning. But now I see it was a joke. She was really GOOOD!

  • u need to get some more soul and damn yuh be in there for real just feel the music honey!!! and yuh are going to be so great "GOOZEBUMPS"

  • she reminds me of my god-sister....she like to turn hip hop and R&B songs into opera songs...love it

  • Lol I love it!!!

  • go girl

  • i love how you went from classical training to pop/broadway belting!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I love her. She's awesome

  • Love it!!!!!!!!!!!!! You go gurl!!!

  • omggg she went inn noo doubt.

  • WHY isn't she on broadway yet?!?!?!?

  • @kaiyaxrawr she is... she's cover Elphaba in the national tour of Wicked

  • @florens89 really?? i had no idea! that's so exciting!

  • that was great

  • WOOOOOOOOOAH the intro to the belt was amazing

  • amazing

  • yeeeeuh rep-ing the white girl with pipes.

    i got chills.

  • MAN SHE CAN SING!

  • I love how fast her vibrato is when she first started belting

  • lol... did u notice at 1:34 when the guy playing the piano just when she went higher... lol and i dont get why she went sharp at the end... :S

  • probably inside joke.

  • I mean, it is kind of hilarious at first, but I found myself really truly loving it. :)

  • Also, I would kill to have that voice when she starts belting it.

  • Why were they all laughing the entire time? I could hardly hear her in parts thanks to them.

  • This is sooo good :)

  • lol

    i was just about to say isnt she wearing natalie weiss' dress?

    bu then i realized that she IS natalie weiss

    LMAO

  • She did that on purpose.

  • very well done! xoxo

  • why did she sharp? i dont get it

  • Because she can. It takes someone with an incredible voice to go flat or sharp on command. It requires a lot of practice and hard work to train your voice and ear to detect flat and sharp notes on command.

  • I love when she starts belting, it makes me smile :-)

  • l0l

  • sick

  • I love the little look she angles at someone there before the intentional sharp. It's like, "Watch where I'm going, you're gonna get the punchline" kind of expression.

    Too cute. And anyone who watches her face and reactions as she's singing this song can clearly tell that she's having a bit of fun at what is obviously an inside joke amongst her friends.

    Good on you, Natalie :)

  • this is Fabulous!!!!!!! Loved it!!! She Sings GREAT!!!!! Shes got god's gift to an angel!!!!!

  • SHE KILT DAT DAMN SONG!!!! Go ahead on Girl! I got goosebumps haha

  • WOW A GOOD PERFORMANCE!! KUDOS

  • d@mnnnn u got that @ the end

  • SHIVERS ! :O

  • that was hilarious!

    i love her she is so amazing

  • why is everyone laughing?

  • prolly because she's singing in a classical style.

  • Why's everyone arguing over it, the girl was obviously just having a bit of fun, notice everyone (including her) are laughing.

  • Comment removed

  • it's actually sharp :) and it's intentional. the whole thing is a parody of the song, except for when she really gets into the real thing at at 0:44

  • Comment removed

  • OMG!!!she is fucking good!!!

    white girl was MOST DEFINITELY gettin it!!

  • Didn't know Oprah could sing

  • so funnny

  • sing it sistah.... You don't have to be free! As a matter of fact I don't want you to be free, stay right there and sing it again. THat was amazing....

  • stop giving her a hard time, obviously she was goofing around...and she probably goes sharp at the end on purpose, she hit notes in that song that are tougher than that last note. she is amazing...just search for Natalie Weiss.

  • i think you need a reality check.. lol

  • bianca wasnt sharp at the end..

  • Come on, guys. MTs have to have the best sense of humor out of anyone in the world: in a business where there's so much rejection, of course we find fun where we can in our art. It's all good fun, the sharp is funny, the vibrato in the beginning is funny, just have a laugh and move along.

  • she gos sharp at the end because she is making fun of bianca ryan from america's got talent. . . i think. . .

  • first off, she's singing a belty song classically. get it? thats funny. yeahh...?

    secondly, what i believe- every single amateur performance of this that i hear, they sing "ME-AAHHHHH", and go SOOO sharp it hurts my ears. i feel like this was a rude jest at those people, saying that she is better than that, yet still messes up.

    still dont see how this is funny? neither do i.

    but i love this betch tho, i'd pull an ariel for her voice...

  • The sharp note is on purpose! That is why everyone is laughing! She was picking on Bianca Ryan from American's Got Talent!

  • hahahha wow after that comment you must be the most amazing singer ever right?!?! you should totally show us your talent ! I HAVE AN IDEA! you should post a video of YOU singing this song? i mean it would be just an honor for you to grace us with your voice!

  • Fabulous!!!

  • i love natalie.

    but can someone tell me the joke please? :L

  • amazing ... got chillss

  • Where was this recorded at? It looks very familiar.

  • I was really lost at the beginning... It was funny when I finally got what was going on. She can really sing...

  • amazing you go girl what lol that was wonderful your so talented wow

  • dude she is so great

    she can seriously sing anything!

  • That was funny as hell. Great voice, and I love the bit where she changes voices. I'd actually like to see a proper version (as in, on stage) done sometime. Makes a great comic turn!

  • Did you read the description of the video before you watched it? It clearly states that she goes sharp at the end on purpose. It's part of the joke.

  • wow she is soooo good

  • she a good singer and she's beautiful i love her

  • GONE GURL!!!! i was really confused at the beginning tho, haha!

  • wow! funny and  good

  • That was really funny and then really good and then funny LOL loved it!!!! Go you

  • YOU THINK ITS SUPPOSED.... AND I think too...!! then I fixed the comment..! and I wrote an other one... you would read it..!! =-3

  • Impressive.

    Too bad the video quality isn't better.

  • What makes you say that? Can you do better?

  • that better be sarcasm, because if it's not then you obviously don't know anything. lol. She's frickin AMAZING!

  • love it! she's amazing

  • ok, go watch Natalie's other videos and see if you're still making fun of her. she's the best singer i've heard in a very long time.

  • she was actually quite good...nothing special at the end...

    the title is a bit misleading..hehehe

  • idiot... start the video at 00:48

  • Suprised the hell outta me ! She reminds me of JO JO. U can sing ladie !

  • haha. she's really good!!!

  • wow wow wow!!this is really great

  • wow, i was definitley caught off guard, i love your voice!

  • was she on American Idol?

  • haha i love when she gets into it!

  • she's kind'a funny at the beginning! i love her :L

  • OMG I love this girl.

  • jataizarocks stfu? shes amazing

  • yea it sounded like a mediocore opera but it was iight im not gon lie at the end she definitely did that nice

  • Jesus...she starts the song with a ridiculously bad interpretation, over-singing it on purpose, in a parody of another singer known for over-singing and excessive dramatics. She breaks into her own voice about midway through, which is why everyone goes nuts cheering. At the end, she goes sharp again to bring the parody full circle.

  • is it suppose to be funny???

  • go the piano player!!

  • that was just a joke it was horrible

  • omg that was great !

  • hahahah! thats cool.

  • very entertaining she knows how to work it...pretty too

  • I know she went sharp at the end on purpose, but I have no idea why?

  • the whole thing is a parody of other singers and stupid things they do. In the middle she does her own thing, then goes back to parody. It's a listed skill that she has that she can sing flat and sharp on purpose.

  • The whole thing doesn't appear to be a parody. It seems like the first part is singing an obviously non-classical song in a very classical/legit voice and then she switches to the way it should really be.

    The sharpness at the end must have been some inside joke. It's no special skill to sing flat or sharp on purpose. And I don't know what singer does that on this particular song?

  • No, believe me. Anyone who knows Natalie will know this is all on purpose. And being able to sing flat and sharp on purpose is a skill. She only does so on choice notes that are incredibly painful. Also, for most trained vocalists, it's pretty hard to go flat purposely. It's just not natural feeling.

    And her first section is still a parody of the wrong way to sing in the legit voice. I've heard her actual legit voice and it's nothing like that.

    Maybe you should do research before talking?

  • I don't have to know Natalie to know this is on purpose. It's OBVIOUS. I am a well trained singer with a degree in vocal performance and can tell you that it is not at all difficult to purposely sing flat or sharp. You simply change the pitch in your mind before you sing it, and then sing the wrong note.The first part is her overdoing a really classical voice, which tends to be funny to people who aren't opera singers.I love musical theater and was trained classically, so you do your research.

  • I'm also vocal performance, emphasis in opera. And I feel like maybe I misunderstood when you said "the whole thing doesn't appear to be a parody". I thought you legitimately meant that she was trying to sing in the legit voice, which I knew she wasn't.

  • c'mon guys. It's called a joke.

  • i'd just like to add my two cents, also having a degree in vocal performance (emphasis opera/art song) and having studied modern classical composition for many years. singing sharp or flat on purpose is something any musician with a good ear should be able to do. in fact, there are numerous pieces written in the last 100 years that require it. it's more that, in this case, it's retarded and it would have been more effective if she hadn't forgotten the words and just sung the end full out.

  • it's not a real high end performance. she's just messing around with some friends. she wasn't going for "effect", she was just trying to be funny, and she succeeded.

  • lol get over yourself

  • lol go fuck yourself.

    i think everyone gets that it's a joke. we're saying the joke is lame.

  • If it was easy to sing flat on purpose this wouldn't be funny because everyone would be able to do it all the time.

  • Why would everyone sing flat all the time!?!?

    That's just dumb. If you are going to think the written note in your head and then sing it, there's no reason why you can't think the wrong note and sing that to be funny.

  • Incredibly talented, I loved that.

  • lols, I was so close to closing this when she was singing at the start. Glad she broke out with her real voice when she did :P

    Very nice ^^

  • omg girl you rock!!!

  • o well thank you for telling me, cause that messed me up.

  • read info!: "Natalie a senior in the musical theater dept. at Penn State sings "And I Am Telling You". Goes sharp at the end on purpose"

  • she did it on purpose...making fun of bianca ryan i believe

    it says on purpose in teh description

  • Go head girl...i was gonna say something bad...lol...good thing i waited till the end right...U did ya thing on it.

  • she can sing!!!!

  • Okay, I *love* that satirical intro she does. I crack up every single time I watch this video.
