Julie Andrews (the movie) and Mary Martin (broadway) have done to this song what Yule Brenner has done to the King of Siam and what Carol Channing did for Dolly. Once it is done by the master no one else can do it justice and your performance will be compared to their brilliance. I am not saying she isn't a good singer, I am just saying that this song is a tough one to pull off because of the people who sang it before her.

She is an incredible Broadway star- but all I can think of is Ragtime. Lets leave this song to Julie Andrews, like Judy Garland for Somewhere over the Rainbow.
They really should! I love watching her act on that show but became a fan long because of her voice way before the show came out :) maybe if some of the characters get married they could have her sing at the wedding... just a though :)
its kind of a shame that shes on private practice. not that it isnt a good show i dont know anything about it, but a singing voice like that shouldnt be wasted.
LOL It's not a waste. she's getting exposure now. A whole new audience is getting to know about her and besides Audra says she's gonna be in a production of Carmen in the near future so she's deffinately gonna be singing again :)
umm... she's singing more now than ever, not to mention in actual operas. Also she still studies regularly with voice teacher Arthur Levy... not waisting an ounce, she just decides not to waste her acting talents.
i just realized she's from private practice. what a talented person. an amazing performer/musician, and actress. does anyone know where this concert was held?
What can I say except I LOVE AUDRA!!!! What a PHENOMINAL performer. She delivers each song with such divine conviction it completely refreshing to watch!!!
Of all the songs in The Sound of Music, this is the only one I have trouble singing. I guess one has to have that proverbial "fire" to be able to sing this song and be convincing. Just the way Julie Andrews sang it all those years ago.
whoooa. that was amazing. other than her voice, what i really like about it is she actually convincing. like she believes the lyrics that are coming out of her mouth. see what i mean?
Was "I Believe" from the Book of Mormon based on this song? Because the lyrics are extremely similar.

Mary Martin never sang this song. But she was an amazing Maria. My mom was there during the original run and said it was incredible.

The writers of private practice should make her sing on an episode. Or have they already done that?
