I am amazed that the first 10 comments on this page all similarly express my admiration for this performance. After I post this, i shall look further!
Fantastic. Born to play the role. I love that she stays in character during the applause.
The thing about acting is that it's an invisible art - in hearing Elaine Page or Patti LuPone sing this song, one cannot deny their vocal skill, it's evident. Great acting is harder to qualify or notice. Sometimes, you see the character onstage - you forget the actor. That is when the acting is fantastic, and Glenn Close is the only Norma who completely is the character, not an actress with a great voice.
Oh my gods!. (And I don't even believe in them.) That was supremely powerful. And for once, I'm not editing and re-editing to stay below the 500 character limit. It can be said as simply and concisely as that.
Until I saw this on TV I had no idea that Miss Glenn Close could even sing ! What a wonderful surprise. I was completely mesmerised by her stunning performance !
I've always loved Glenn Close in every role I've seen her play...but this absolutely blew me away! I knew she played Norma Desmond, but I've never actually seen her perform...this was one of the best performances I've ever seen, and was definitely the high point of this concert!
Miss Close is perfect for the role… the melodramatic diva has been Norma Desmond is really alive in her performance… and being so over acting is a Broadway thing…. You need to do that so that people at the farthest end of the theatre would still feel the emotion. Miss Close is truly a great actress… both in theatre and film.
@lesmizfanatic90 Are you kidding? That's the character! Norma Desmond literally is a "drama queen"! Plus, Glenn's voice is much better for this song than Patti's, no offense to Patti. I grew up on this very performance, and no one can do it justice in my eyes.
If there is ONE part you can't overact it's Norma Desmond's! She supposed to make those faces and gestures! That's the way movies looked like back in the days!
patti lupone is far superior in voice and acting. close has to hit us over the head with the fact that she is insane especially with those over done eyeball enlargements. sry but this role belonged to patti
@lesmizfanatic90 I also prefer Patti Lupone's interpretation to Glenn Close's. Patti's Norma (on the London cast recording) sounds like a real person while Glenn's Norma (on the American premiere recording) sounds like an actor playing a "character."
Yes, but it’s an interpretation that works very well because the character Norma Desmond is a has-been actress that Hollywood has long forgotten. Part of of Norma Desmond’s self-delusion is that she still believes herself to be a Hollywood star and her purchase on reality is so tenuous that she continues playing the part of a Hollywood Diva, whether anyone is watching or not. In this part, I prefer a strong actress over a strong singer. I saw Lupone in London. Hers was nothing like this.
@avesraggiana I totally agree!!! totally...we're not looking for technical singing perfection...we're looking for someone who can act like she's totally crazy, but doesn't realize it herself...Close is that actress....
@seleehwekim thank you seleehwekim! im sry but whoever says patti isn't a great actress just needs to watch evita, les miserables and gypsy. she's gives remarkable performances. true there are occasions when she gives horrendous performances but i choose to focus on those that are beyond fantastic.
Glen Close - She's a Giant among Giants! The depth and breath of her talents are phenomenal. She's on my want to meet "Bucket List"....She transforms every part she portrays into an auto-biography - her ability of acting metamorphosis is uncanny. You never questions the dedication to her craft or the convictions of her portrayals. Her skills have not quavered or diminished with age and she becomes a legacy via whatever genre she performs through, stage, screen or television.
Other Normas were far better singers and equally fine actresses. But none of them inhabited the role of Norma Desmond, as completely as Glenn Close did. And if one could still argue that point, none of the other Normas possessed what Glenn Close does: spellbinding charisma, and sheer, old-style Hollywood, megawatt starpower. You can't learn that, you have to born with it.
I almost forget she's singing her acting performance is so perfect. I find myself just watching her face instead of listening to voice, which is also stunning. An amazing performance. Beautiful.
@standup22 I know what you mean. I found myself doing the same thing, Actually I think Glenn Close masterfully used her weak, scratchy and non-singer's voice to her advantage by using it to project Norma Desmond's borderline-crazed mind state.
Elaine who?!?! No disrespect to Elaine, she is a truly amazing talent. However, there is only one woman who can truly do Norma Desmond the justice she deserves, and it is Glenn Close.
one song/performance where everything clicks and correlates from its title to its lyrics and manner of singing. she just do not only sings but communicates as well. who could ask more than that.
Magnífica. No hay palabras. Sabía que ella cantaba, pero hasta ahora no había encontrado su caractarización como Norma Dsmonds. Fabulosa. Glenn sigue demostrando que es una de las mejores actrices que tiene el cine americano y desgraciadamente no saben aprovecharla. Pero espero que todos sus fans podamos seguir disfrutando de ella por mucho tiempo
Noone has or probably will ever top her in this role (not counting the movie). She truly understood the passion,acting,singing,emotion needed for this! BRAVO! Got to see her do this live in NY years ago!
Is it me ..but has their any memorable song from a musical these days? i miss that .. I think that this was the last song that was memorable in a musical. What about the music its self..NOT catchy ..sorry ..my opinion
She UNDERSTOOD this character.. this woman's absolute passion for being herself, her star, her soul... nothing else matters to the character not voice, nuthin! that is why she makes it incomparably great. Voice is not all... not by a long shot.
Lupone is a better singer, no doubt about that. However, Glenn Close's voice and acting is much more appropriate for Norma Desmond. She got the movie star quality that Gloria Swanson evoked in the original film. Exaggerated facial expressions, big eyes, histrionics...that is what Norma Desmond is supposed to be and Close hit the nail on the head. Lupone was too restrained from what I've seen and doesn't really create the camera acting the way she should.
This is SO MAGNIFICENT! I never get tired of watching Glenn Close perform this number. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, for putting this on YouTube!!!!!
i must admit, i was blown away. I too had no idea she could sing so well. I've always loved her as an actress, but WOW what brilliance in the role. Some may say her singing is up to the same level as the others like LuPone, Buckley or Page, but there's no denying that her interpertation and character acting is spot on. And whether or not the singing is in the same league doesn't change my opinion a bit, and I personally think her singing was wonderful.
She nailed that role. ALW managed to make the role so huge that only a few actresses could do it justice. The audience went nuts for Glenn when I saw the original Bway cast.
I was looking for an established singer like Elaine Page but Glenn Close is so very magnetic! Who else can look like she just step out of the bathroom and still hold your attention with such a rvieting presence? I find her voice above-average but it is not the voice - it is the interpretation of the song, the nuances, the subtleness, that she means every word she sings - that takes your breath away.
I saw her in Sunset Boulevard on Broadway in 1995 and have never forgotten it, it was an amazing experience. NO ONE interprets this the way she can, she's incredible!
Glenn Close becomes "Norma Desmond," in her melodramatic attempt to escape being forgotten by movie-goers, She is pathetic, but she also deeply stirs our sympathy. Close's fine acting and great voice are wonderful here.
Glenn Close is one of my favorite actresses! She performs this song beautifully! I love her face when she sings "I can play any role"... I am unable to find a word that says completely what I think about her performance!
Come on now, guys. She's much better than the majority of actors that claim to have a good singing voice. I do think her switches from head to chest voice and vise-versa are a bit dramatic, however. That could use some work, but she has a very nice, present, supported voice!
She doesn't have the best voice for singing, but the way she says every word is great. You can understand everything evev if english isn' t your native language. There are many singers considered to be good that you don't undersand a word they sing. As for myself, she taught me how to pronounce the word "go". In four words: she is an actress! And a brilliant one!
The acting of this performance is the richest out there, She truly captures the madness and desperation of a fallen goddess desperate to return to glory. She also captures the silent film mystic with her facial and body gestures. She is the best. Brilliant. As far at the singing goes, she is quite good, how many great singers out there do you love who do not have the "best" voices ie: Merman, Sinatra, Dylan,
True. She has a very strong stage presence, but alas her vocal range is very limited, especially when compared to other Normas like Patti LuPone or Helen Schneider.
absolutely the only Norma Desmond on stage for me! period.
