  • speeechles. omg shes amazing..

  • she was incredible! best Mrs J ever - well done Melanie C! X

  • I love her voice ,her voice is so powerful,special and unique,Melanie C is the best.

  • Her voice really suits this :) I've done a version of this recently xx Check it out :)

  • I loved this it was fantastic, I had the girl from Atomic Kitten as Mrs J. though, I want to see it again so bad!!!!!!!!!

  • can we trade ? please

  • Best Mrs J?? Sorry no way! She sings flat!!! Seen Lyn Paul and Niki Evans in the role and they were both NOTE PERFECT. That's the whole point isn't it? Nothing against Mel C, she's fine but she's behind these two in this role.

  • @DurhamGooner Nikki Evans is an AMAZING Mrs J!

  • @DurhamGooner Niki Evans was outstanding I went to see Blood Brothers today.

  • I love mel c but I have to say Nikki Evans is the best Mrs J yet, her voice is so powerful ! :D

  • The only problem, is at the begining, you were told not to film it, and anyone who went, had the respect to go by it

    The whole thing made me cry

  • The only problem, is at the begining, you were told not to film it, and anyone who went, had the respect to go by it

  • Lyn Paul is the best Mrs.J in my opinion, seen the show 11 times, 7 times with Lyn Paul, 1 time with Niki Evans and 3 times with Linda Nolan.

    Lyn Paul FTW, she is sooo lovely <3 xxx

  • I saw this at the beginning of November in Liverpool and I've got to say it made a change to have a Mrs Johnstone with a believable accent! I've also seen Barbera Dickson as Mrs J and Mel was my favourite, she brought the house down and the standing ovation was well deserved

  • @mummychip i saw it in november as well i thought it was amazing and i agree mel has been the best Mrs J

  • Saw niki Evans last night she was bloody amazing!!

  • @spannawebb I saw her on tuesday night in MK :)

    xox

  • Maureen Nolan was an absolutely outstanding Mrs J <3

  • went on sat 20th nov to see this fabulous play mel c was absolutely brilliant.

  • absolutely amazing play!

  • Barbara Dickson is the best Mrs. J!!! I got to play this role last fall, and it was such an honor to be a part of it, let alone be Mrs. Johnstone. <3 BB is my baby! I don't feel like Mel C put enough emotion into it, but this is one of the better recordings I've heard of her on here. I worry that the rumors of this becoming a film could be true. I think for hardcore BB fans it could be a disaster to watch...

  • I've seen it twice and I love it so much but I'm so gutted I didn't get to see Melanie C in it.

  • @mollypenneyXO. She is in the part in Liverpool until end of November.

  • I know she's been slated for her performance as Mrs J, but I really like Mel C playing her! I think she just potrays the character differently than Linda Nolan (who was also fantastic) , it's just 2 different interpretations :)

  • I seen Mel C in London, she was amazing!! :D Also seen Niki Evans who is also AMAZING !!! saw her yesterday @ The Mayflower Southampton, wanna see it again an immence show :D

  • I've seen the show twice. The first time was with Mel C and she was amazing. THe second time was with Lyn Paul, who was good but nothing compared to Mel.. :) x

  • Mel didn't do a bad job, but the best Mrs. J I have ever seen is Niki Evans.

  • @DearestHelpless1001 I saw Niki Evans last night in the role and of the 5 actresses I have seen in it, she is by far my favourite so far. Marti Webb was far too SHOWBIZ for Mrs J. Mel C sounds fantastic though

  • I saw Melanie 8 times as Mrs J, and each time she got better and better....she is amazing.....when someone gives you goosebumps and makes you cry everytime with her performance then she is defo doing something right!!!!!....see you in Liverpool in November Mel....love ya loads xxxx

  • I saw Lyn Paul in Hastings last week and I would simply say that she is AMAZING!!! Her voice was so right and she played the role so well! Her age i felt added to the piece as it was like she was remenising on what life was like with the young children. I think that Mel sounds too 'pop' like and slightly American. Sorry.

  • Kiki Dee was the BEST Mrs. Jonston

  • @Disneydanny

    No she wasn't!

    The best Mrs J, by a huge margin, is Barbara Dickson! She was chosen by Willy Russell, she created the role and she won the Olivier Award. Plus the score/story is strongly influenced by folk music which, given its the genre from which Dickson emerged, suits her voice far better than that of Kiki Dee.

  • Lyn Paul is too old to play Mrs J ?!

    Completely disagree with that . I think she's perfect . I personally think she would be much better for the part . Does Mel C really look like a woman who's had the experience raising 8 children ? (& giving birth to 9 :P) . Plus Mickey & Eddie look practically the same age as her .

    Lyn all the way for me (: x

  • AAAH Hoot.

    i was there :D

    few weeks ago in London :P

    German Girl :P

  • Was there for her last night, she and the whole cast were amazing! and yes she would be perfect for the film role.

  • blood brothers is really gd and mel c was amazing in it i went to london to seee it it was definetley worth it

  • @Crystiology Vivienne Carlisle plays her.

  • Wow. Wish I'd gone to see it again now! She sounds like a better Mrs Johnstone than the one I saw in Bristol a while ago :)

  • The best song in Blood Brothers!!!!!

    Mel C is amazin, I'm proud to be from widnes when I hear this.

  • Saw her 2 times on 23 and 25 february! Amazing! Emotional!

  • Melanie C is the BEST on this world!!! She has a real adorable personality!!!

  • Her voice is magical! ♥

    If they do make a film she needs to be cast as Mrs J

    Or at least there needs to be an album with her on it!

  • Beautiful! I'd love to be able to see this! Melanie is absolutely fabulous!

  • Gosh! She's from Liverpool! And she was born in Widnes and I love her Liverpudlian accent! <3

  • if the film goes ahead as hoped, the

    producers would be insane not to give

    Melanie Chisholm the role of

    Mrs J. She is the biggest name to play

    the part in years and is clearly

    perfect.

  • @chris276100 the film has been talked about for ages.. I hope it does happen one day, but i'm not holding my breath for it. Mel C would be a good name to plug into it but they may want to go down the more unknown route (the opposite of the Mamma Mia route in other words).

  • @chris276100 100 % disagree, have you seen Lyn Paul as Mrs J ?

    Do that then come back and say what you just did

  • @kaanxxx

    I'd love to. I'm sure she is excellent in the role. She has the right look too

  • @kaanxxx i have seen lyn paul saw her last week she was amazing tbh , but i think she is now a little too old to play her :s she was amazing though ...:S

  • @chris276100 And she's a born Scouser so no trouble with the accent and all.

    Also, they'd just have me meltin'! Would that be reason enough?

  • @chris276100 this is going to be a film?yay!

  • @chris276100 I much preferred Petula Clarke's interpretation of Mrs J. She was very good in the role and helped make the whole narrative very moving.

  • @chris276100 I'd still LOVE mel to star in the film version but I have heard recently that its likely to go to Catherine Zeta Jones, and I think she would be perfect too. Please don't let it go to Madonna !!!!

  • Is it true that the show is set for film? Any new news?

    

  • @CarolineAnnMartinCAT I haven't read anything for a while, but if Les Mis is a hit

    hopefully they will finally film Blood Brothers. Aneurin Barnard would be great as Mickey and I still think Catherine Zeta Jones is the best "name" to play Mrs J

  • @chris276100 and Philip Stewart the role of the narrator, he brings so much to the role

  • @chris276100 I disagree. Yes, shes a very good singer, but her acting isnt up to scratch. If this is to be made into a film, it needs a female with both amazing vocals and acting skills.

  • @fellatio24 You fool, she is Liverpudlian! Born and bred.

  • the song makes me wanna cry

  • having seen the shows 11 times i was slightly worried about Mel being Mrs J thinking - ohh spice girl being mrs J .. i dont think so

    BUT now i cannoy wait to go see her lol :P - she sound great

  • really good performance but shes no Barabra Dickson

  • Thank God :P

  • She sings this  smashing

  • i want to see a video of mel whilst singing one of the blood brothers songs, does any one know if i can find one anywhere?
