this is beautiful, this woman is my favourite actress and singer. The emotion and acting she puts into every performance is amazing. Ive jsut ordered her CD :) cant wait. this song is my fave. x
i wish i could have seen her as elphaba. i saw a picture of her in the green and i think she's the only one who looks relatively like how they describe elphaba in the book. she has such sharp, but beautiful features.
I met her the other day. She sang in a concert with Gary Maeur and Virginia Woodruff in my area. One of the NICEST and FUNNIEST people I've ever met. Her comedic timing is impeccable, and she is SO TALENTED...have I mentioned that she is so NICE? :)
She just has this uncanny ability to connect with a song and make it so real. Her voice is SO powerful, and second only to her talent of interpretation. She's a truly beautiful and kind person.
She's more real than some of the hyped-up actresses that young teen girls love to obsess over. True talent, she has...now why hasn't she gotten more jobs? Damn shame, if you ask me!
i love how expressive she is! She adds so much to any song she sings with the facial expression; they say so much more than words! But it certainly helps that she has a beautiful voice, and is stunning.
Lippa has been quoted as saying that if he writes a song for a female voice, it is ALWAYS with Julia in mind. He thinks there should many different types of voices out there, but they should all sound like Julia. It was cute.
@eddielizb Most actor/actress albums from Broadway don't particularly do well on the charts, I think they're put together more for the fans than anything else.
This song is amazing, it makes me feel so many things. I can totally relate to it. I think everyone can from some point in their life. I love Julia's voice! She is so talented I could listen to her all day, plus she is totally gorgeous ;)
With respect, "beautiful" is not the point of this song. Andrew Lippa (on the piano) wrote it for Julia Murney and knows her voice and acting intimately. He knew how Julia would sing it and how thoroughly she would inhabit the song. Ms. Tomsko does some lovely, careful, student singing, but it's not helpful to compare them.
I totally agree. I love when singers, especially Julia have that roughness that's not necessarily "great singing" but just a sense of really pushing. Her presentation and acting while she sings is just so great that she's able to make vocal sacrifices for the sake of a piece's mood or meaning.
I mean... a lesson in artistry!

I love that she doesn't just sing this song. She all around performs it. She acts, sings, and has motions in the song. That's brilliant.
