wow. i've never seen the version when they bring out the animals during her fragment of Colours of the wind. The way she sings makes me... content. it's beautiful
That was amazingly choreographed and very very well sang. I loved it. Im gonna show this to my drama teacher mabey we could do it. We probably cant o it this well I hope we do it justice. *fav*
Animazement! was a show Disneyland created to "show" what would happen if the artists (the people in black vests) were to let the characters and shows get mixed up and put together.
The characters and songs would mix together but, their showcase moments were alone and the other characters and extras would back off.
It was a great show! This was one of the highlight moments. I worked Small World and you could hear the applause from this part everytime!
If they ever decide to do a musical version of Pocahantas (sp?) they should absolutely use Eden as the title character. She looks exactly like her. And sings the songs so beautifully.
What I meant.. was that with the hair and outfit she looked like her. Who gives a shit what color her skin is? You've heard of this thing called make-up, right?
I KNOW, RIGHT?!?! i was like, "OMGOMGOMG!!!" *claps until hands practically fall off* haha.
the two guys were great too, but c'mon, eden deserved much more than that!
I had the opportunity to know her when she was at Disney. My uncle worked backstage and I worked the rides and such, so he was all like, "hey, why don't you come hang out one day?" and that was when I met her. she's really nice, and she was (and still is) always so energetic. it was amazing to see her become a broadway star.
it was a temporary show in Disneyland in like 2000 called Animazement. Unfortunately, its gone now...I know i saw the show then when i was 10, but unfortunately i had no idea who Eden Espinosa was then, or how amazing she was...oh well. At least i can say i saw her.
i'm so happy i finally found footage of this part of the show, i remember being so young and i understand exactly what it meant and how much of an impact that medley gave me. i miss this show!!
OMG! Everyone I know who has seen Wicked has seen her as Elphaba, and my sister and her friend actually met her, so I've always complained about never seeing her. But now I can't say that anymore because I saw this practically every time I went to Disneyland when this played, when I was 7. I still look back and watch the video my dad recorded of this. Although, no one knew who she was at the time, so it didn't mean anything then.
Actually only "Just Around the Riverbend" and "Out There" were written by Stephen Schwartz. I think that David Zippel did the lyrics to "Go the Distance". But they are all Alan Menken songs. :)
i dont know about the rest of you, but every time i watch this video, i get all teary eyed. it is such a beautiful arrangment. and these three singers sing it very well together... especially eden :)
So she has had the same song ending pose forever...(not bashing it at all!) Its the same as in brooklyn when she had to pose, and in wicked when they have to do their turn and strike a pose at the end of each solo song. Interesting
Ahhhh... the good ol days when Disneyland put on worth while shows. I used to work with Eden (among many other fantastic performers) back then! Thanks for posting this and letting me have my nostalgic moment! :)
She was. I think that this video is old. She is Elphaba now in Los Angeles. Maybe she does this as a job alongside, but I'm pretty sure its from a long time ago because Pocahontas is not playing anywhere.
No...haha. Disney was her early career. Then she got the part in Brooklyn, then Wicked, then the rest is history! So this is from a while back...no more Disney anymore. She's on to bigger and better things now! YAY EDEN!
Yes, Yes, I know. I was just skipping the brooklyn part. She did Wicked and was in the original cast understudying for Idina, then she played the role on broadway, etc
Yeah I have read it a trillion times already. It's so good! But I dont like how it advertised the lottery tickets...now there are going to be so many more people lottoing!
god she's fast...i actually remember seeing this when i was little kindof so i probably have already meet eden but not realized it:) omg the end is amazing eden is the best!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can't get it to load, just the forever spinning circle of dots...? I was trying to see if my son was doing the Herc or Quasi part. I never got a vid of him doing this show, and I could kick myself.
haha I guess Eden's used to singing while she's raised up... she's carried as Pocahontas and flies as Elphie... but she's incredible as EVER... I LOVE HER!!!
Oh ya, thats totally Eden!! She is so incredible!! I saw her in Wicked last april and she was absolutely amazing. She brought my entire choir group to tears. It was awesome!
I sang this Disney Montage last year in choir and it's up on my youtube account.. it's not a video, but just the track. And it's not that great..but whatever..
I love this trio. Eden is amazing..oh man..so mamny memories
That was the most amazing Disney medley I've ever seen!!! And Eden Espinosa as Pocahontas!!! Do you have the rest of the show? I absolutely must see it! ahhh!!!! Splendid!
This was always one of my favorite parts of the show, I hated to see it leave too it was the theater's best. Now they have Snow Crap *cough* I mean Bore White *cough* I mean...Snow White there....dear lord it is bad.
Someone recently told me to look this clip up. It was a shock because that is me singing Hercules. I've rarely seen any footage of me performing in this show. Eden is great, Danny is wonderful as well as Quasi.
I remember how I took this for granted as a 6 year old. Wish they would bring this show back to Disneyland :)
