The B wasn't amazing at the end, but it sure sounded better than if she'd stayed at a G. I don't know it just doesn't hit the spot for me if they stay at a G, kind of an anti-climax.
everything was sooo wonderful.......... except that last note its actually written to stay at a G but no she just had to go ruin it and go all they way up to a B - it's written that way for a reason
Fantastic performer through out the show - love her. Ok last night was slightly off but shewas the only performer who didnt have bum notes throughout the show - a shame everywhere homes in the one bum note she did in the show - which is probably why is doing so well now in the west end.
@stanley1jacob It's too bad few people understand English grammar. Anyways, I doubt anyone really cared about the last note being too sharp. Sure she is covering the song, but that doesn't mean she can't do parts of it her own way. I know I sure didn't.
there is no shame if they changed the key to make her feel more comfortable cause she can still sing and did very well. good job! in theater, its common to change like that
AMAZING' i really think either her kr Sophie shildve won cause Danielle just feels unexperienced and weaker but she tried to belt the last note in falsetto so it just needed to land softer but she shdave been top two with Sophie :)
Ummm, this is a difficult song, even without all the moving around. Before you say she stinks, try singing it youtselves, let's see how you do. With choreography, of course.
She's a mezzo belter - and if you're used to singng mezzo it's hard to switch into soprano!! That makes it easier for real sopranos (but none of the girls there were sops :( )
she was always a brilliant singer and can dance very well. but like in this performance. her acting was just quite fake for me. like what was with the annoying actions she did, for example with "begged for more." plus i agree that last note was kinda out of tune bit painful on the ears.
They've changed the key...it annoyed me when they went on about how good her 'soprano' was, when her only 'soprano' note was the last two, and the very last was hideous.
I'm a sop and I can hit even F6 but it hurts, both me and the public. If you can physically hit a note it doesn't mean you should necessarily do that in a song :)
The last note was B flat, that is too high for a mezzo. Even worse her technique is not up too speed in this range. She hurt her throat with that last note and you can hear how painful it was for her.
@NinonaNo1 A mezzo can sing as high as an soprano ,but if it sounds good is an ohter queiston .There are mezzos who can sing the alto parts .Belt or the soprano parts .She is more of a belter
I agree - I have been taking classical lessons since last year, and while I am stil just a learner, her final note took me by complete surprise. Why would she want to do that?? Otherwise I enjoyed it.
@hannahjade09 Well bear in mind this song is for a soprano and Lauren is a Mezzo soprano, her voice range is TOTALLY wrong for this song, and even now I wonder why it was chosen for her.
I think she sings this wonderfully, its a damn hard song and after all that spinning and dancing around, not to mention how nervous she would be, i'm not surprised she found that last note hard! She just seemed to run out of puff for it, which we can't blame her for.
Goodness gracious why downy every just put her down cause of her last note when I doubt half of you could never have done what she did on that stage that night. She is a beautiful singer and a good singer, and even if she didn't hit that last note perfectly she still looked confident and was having fun that whole time
Wow.....that actually was pretty good. She was flat in some areas, but not by much....this would have been given a 1 until she did that last note....that gave her the ever annoying 2
That relieved sigh at the end is so endearing. She's so proud. I'm relieved lol totally ruined a great performance by an over ambitious, over rehearsed, stupid, ridiculous note.
Good voice, but she was not quite into the song. Maybe because of all of those dancers running around. I didn't like much the expressions she put into the song, too silly in my opinion. Agree about last note.
Good voice, but she was not quite into the song. Maybe because of all of those dancers running around. I didn't like much the expressions she put into the song, too silly in my opinion. Agree abuot last note.
i went to watch grease in the west end a week ago and lauren was SAndy, inicially i was excited to see her, but she was absolutly rubbish!! she sang well but she cant act!! it was terriable!! :/
I think she'd make a good Eliza and I think she did a great job on this all things considered. It's a very difficult song to sing well and that last note is insane!
@sexiishannona she hit it in the rehearsal but they told her to do the spinning round which put it off, all to make Danielle's performance seem stronger.
@MasterIsh91 are you trying to say that Danielle is a poor performer and therefore needed the others to fail to make her look good. Have you SEEN Danielle perform??? wowza!
@murbuzz Well she blinks a lot, murdered 'On My Own' and was the only contestant who couldn't actually sing 'Somewhere Over The Rainbow' properly. Of course they needed to make her look better.
@MasterIsh91 her blinking is something that is not really relevant. As for "On my Own", that was a poor performance, for which she was picked up on, as were all the other contestants. How do you sing "somewhere over the rainbow" properly? Like Judy Garland? ALW told the press and the audience at the very start he did not want a Judy Garland. Danielle is totally unique and deserved to win the role fully. It's her subtle truth in her performances. even from the final 20 song she told a story.
Lauren used to be in 'Cantabile Youth Choir' from Nuneaton. They have some videos on Youtube so if you search that you can check out her roots. I recommend 'One Voice'
she has such an amazing range... i dont think the other girls could possibly hit that not in comparison, especially when she totally has them beat with over the rainbow. hats off to u lauren.
This performance makes her look bad... But actually, they gave her a song that was a tad bigger then her range. She did her best, and remained in character, which in my opinion is better. The Wizard of Oz is full of character, but no top notes like that...
Andrew said there was some Soprano in her voice; this was pretty much all in chest, except for that hideous last note - she has an amazing voice I think, but not right for this song!
@Deeeplyshallow Haa just saying, all the girls have great legs, and I think the producers knew it. There were hardly any trousers or long dresses in the series! xD
@RozLaChimmer Of course they knew it, can you imagine Judy Garland wearing any of those Dorothy dresses? They pretty much showed as much leg as they could get away with
funny how some people liked the final note, and others hated it, I thought it was slightly scary and off, is that how it was meant to sound?. Loved the rest of the performence though.
Excellent performances throughout from Lauren (esp here). Acting and expressiveness brilliant too. The talent this year was incredibly good, although for the part of Dorothy, out of all - it could only be Lauren or Danielle (sorry, Sophie!). Lauren is sure destined for west end/broadway!
well that last note was awful, she didnt support it at all... but she still amazing, every live perfomer has missed notes its no real biggie..........
@philproductions2210 ha, i suppose aweful may have been a bit harsh... she's definately not dorothy though... she should have a role where she can really belt it out, dorothy's a bit constrained vocally...
Yeah I'm sure she'll do well! I was glad the other two made the final in the end..I think acting and looks-wise they were the best for Dorothy...felt so bad for Sophie in the end :(
I loved this, one of the best performences of the show. Lauren has a brilliant voice. I didn't think her suited to Dorothy, she should be performing a maturer role, involving more difficult songs. I would pay to see her in something else. I thought Danielle was the right choice, all along.
Her voice was the most beautiful, but I really hate her acting, which is a pity. At least Andrew Llyod Webber sounds like he's gonna sign her for something regardless. Very talented, glad she didn't win but equally, she deserves to become something big!
the last note was horrendous......its wobbling all over the place........you can't pop belt the entire song and then try and switch it for the last note......her placement was wrong. To play this role she'd have to totally retrain her voice....
The best voice .best performer and a rare star in the making. She could take on Christine in Love Never Dies. I agree too good for Dorothy. destined for better things.
@brookekennedy25 - You're right, and better things than Love Never Dies too. Christine in the original POTO, yes, but she deserves better than the sequel.
I love how everyone criticises facial expression...It's musical theatre people...Facial expressions are key to conveying the emotion!!!!! I guess if anyone took time to study rather than just bitching they would know that!!!!!
that last note is NOT out of tune. It's a B flat which can sound strange to an untrained ear. Ok it had a couple of wobbles when she span around but she hit the note fine.
@4minutewarning I have a very well trained ear..I've done this song a thousand times.. and a B flat is not at all high for a soprano..even most mezzo's can hit it :) She's usually brill but she just had a bad night..:(
hang on i never said anything about it being high for a soprano!?!
ALW said that he heard this soprano sound from lauren..but she isn't and doesn't claim to be a proper operatic soprano singer. so considering she did pretty well i though...excellent potential anyway. it wavered when she span and had some technique issues...but people are just going "it was out of tune" it wasn't a tuning issue.
if you've done this song a thousand times..you'll be aware that the final note in the actual score isn't a B flat anyway. i think ALW encouraged her to go for something extra. also, i too have a very well trained ear.
lol she looked like she thought she nailed the last note....

Her voice was the most beautiful, but I really hate her acting, which is a pity. At least Andrew Llyod Webber sounds like he's gonna sign her for something regardless. Very talented, glad she didn't win but equally, she deserves to become something big!

@MartynMac77 I'd like to hear you singing that high and as a singer I can confirm thats hard and she had 1 week to learn that! Get a grip!

She was really good :) but it is nothing compared to Siobhan's (from Maria) rendition of this song (during her audition)

the last note was horrendous......its wobbling all over the place........you can't pop belt the entire song and then try and switch it for the last note......her placement was wrong. To play this role she'd have to totally retrain her voice....

The best voice .best performer and a rare star in the making. She could take on Christine in Love Never Dies. I agree too good for Dorothy. destined for better things.

@brookekennedy25 - You're right, and better things than Love Never Dies too. Christine in the original POTO, yes, but she deserves better than the sequel.

I love how everyone criticises facial expression...It's musical theatre people...Facial expressions are key to conveying the emotion!!!!! I guess if anyone took time to study rather than just bitching they would know that!!!!!

that last note is NOT out of tune. It's a B flat which can sound strange to an untrained ear. Ok it had a couple of wobbles when she span around but she hit the note fine.

@4minutewarning I have a very well trained ear..I've done this song a thousand times.. and a B flat is not at all high for a soprano..even most mezzo's can hit it :) She's usually brill but she just had a bad night..:(

@amyelizabethweafer
hang on i never said anything about it being high for a soprano!?!
ALW said that he heard this soprano sound from lauren..but she isn't and doesn't claim to be a proper operatic soprano singer. so considering she did pretty well i though...excellent potential anyway. it wavered when she span and had some technique issues...but people are just going "it was out of tune" it wasn't a tuning issue.

@amyelizabethweafer
if you've done this song a thousand times..you'll be aware that the final note in the actual score isn't a B flat anyway. i think ALW encouraged her to go for something extra. also, i too have a very well trained ear.

@4minutewarning Yes I am aware of that..but nine times out of ten it is changed..I changed it for an exam I did..it's not unusual
