  • she's such a sweetheart :)

  • I love this version!!!!

  • god bless jonathon larsen

  • We're glad you got that role Idina. <3

  • <33

  • "i'm ready for that chord now" loll!! i wish i could see her make all those funny jokes. shes so funny!

  • she sounds so amazing in this song! =) i never liked how she had she only had like 1 song in RENT.

  • indina is so funny =]

  • this song made me cry the first time i saw RENT!!! this songs are just Immortal... so as IDINA Menzel... the greatest!!!

  • Hmm i've often thought about making i'll cover you my wedding song...the original is too fast for a first dance, and the reprise is too slow....this is just perfect tempo x3

  • they are the BEST couple ever <3

  • OMG idina is amazing! this is beautiful

  • i teared up. :(

  • i never knew how gorgeous this song would be with a womans voice

  • That was beautiful! :) :)

  • Oh my Gosh...that was so beautiful! I think I leaked a tear...lol. Angel and Collins are indeed my favorites (Go AC shippers forever!) and the way Idina sings that is soo beautiful...And all the pictures, from meeting on the street to I'l Cover You to the funeral and everything in between...lovely.

  • don't you think if someone figured out the guitar chords and posted it on here that would be really cool??!!

    i get what you mean about the lyrics changing but she had to and i think if you focus on the whole thing combined she is amazing.

    this is one of my favourite covers of hers. it's like a promise or a love letter out loud. it's very heart-warming and the reprise (in the show) is my favourite song out of the whole thing.

    thanks for putting this up and the pictures were great

    xoxo

  • what does she say after "because I want in to come back on and still look young"?

  • This is going into my favorites. I love how Idina took this song and made it her own. And, Angel and Collins are my favorite Rent characters! :D

  • Fantastic song. Fantastic arrangement. Fantastic Woman. Fantastic Recording. FanFUCKINGtastic!

  • lik how idina sang this song

  • BEAUTIFUL.

    i love this audio. and i love idina!

  • thank you for this :]

    i have been searching for an audio of this for a VERY long time :]

  • RENT has to be the very best musical i have ever seen... i had to go out and buy it after i seen it on tv :P... i got it the day after... but right now i haven't watched it 'cause i have no clue where it is :(

  • If you think its amazing on film, you should see it live...it's incredible.

  • Seriously, go and buy the Final Performance DVD. It's great!

  • where did u get the photo at 1:48 from xx

  • What town did she do this in?

  • oh, and i forgot to mention that i all but burst into tears at the last photo, lol

  • i dont care if she played with the lyrics a bit, this is beautiful<3

    i love idina so freaking much. shes great.

  • I love Idina, not the way she did this song though :( Sorry bebe!

  • I know what you mean, like it's a joyous song, or a heartbreaking refrain - but this is neither, its kinda in-between.

    However, I actually like this because it's like a sincere promise to whoever she sings it to. It's a VERY different take, and a little odd at first.

    But if I had been there, I think i would have been moved beyond BELIEF!

  • these pictures are AWESOME! especiall that one at :08. haha latex kitty. anyway, idina is great at singing this song. its really sweet

  • where did you find the picture at 1:50? :) it's just so cool looking hahaha.

  • She's really good, but why the hell did she have to mess with the lyrics?

  • Did she? Just a little tiny line about being a queen lol...and a few refrains to make it one-woman.

    It's pretty much exactly as it always was...

  • Like Kids Bop, y'know?

  • HA EXACTLY LIKE KIDS BOP!!

  • that last picture....

  • WOW! oh my gosh. i was skeptical clicking on this because of course this is angel & collins' song, but she does it beautifully also. i should've guessed though. anything idina sings is fantastic. :)

  • omg i wanna download this!!!!

    omg i wanna cry so bad

    she is such a good singer i admire her so much

    omg :')

    i love this

    omg i wanna cry

  • wow...that woman's voice is AMAZING...simply beutiful

  • Wow... I thought I loved it when Wilson and Jesse did it... Wow... That's about all I can say.

  • I know what you mean, but I wouldn't describe it as flat... Jonathan Larson's stuff has always had unexpected chord progressions and unique dynamics that are surprising but satisfying. This is my favorite song from Rent too and it is my favorite song by Jonathan Larson.

  • I've longed to discover MUSIC as true as this is.

  • heck yes!!

  • I <3 her.

  • Thank you so much for sharing this! This is my favorite song from "Rent." Her version is really amazing.

  • i started crying at this! idina sings this song so beautifully!

  • the woman never fails to bring me to tears.

  • She and Taye should TOTALLY sing this song together!

  • that would be cute.

  • that would be amazing!

  • She and Taye should TOTALLY sing this song together!

  • Idina Menzel...i didnt really care too much for her in the movie but this...this...this is...wow...

  • DUDE I FREAKING LOVE IDINA MENZEL! She sings this AMAZINGLY.

  • omg wth!!! i love idna

  • I love you Idina I wish I could talk to you so you could help me I need help

  • This brought me to tears...RENT always does This is an awesome vid too!

  • It's so pretty.

  • It was great. Idina has such an amazing voice

  • She puts such a twist on the song, but it's a great version of it. It sounds more like a modern love song than a broadway song, but it's really proof that Idina can sing her heart out on songs that aren't even hers and she can make them her own.

  • idinas voice is amazing.

    thanks for posting this.

    i love her. ^.^

  • Idina is the best!!!!

    My idol!!! :)

  • aw man i love Idina

  • my dad's friend was watching rent with me and he loves law and order and when they kissed i was crying cuz i new what was gonna happen and he was like"Im calling law and order and saying 'What happend to my law and order?' now hes gay? wtf?" and then he made fun of idina and i almost threw him out but he was fixing my car so i couldn't ='[

  • that sucks =P

  • 2:38, i love that face!

  • omg it was hysterical!!

  • and the one afterwards was really cute too. :)

  • could you send me the mp3 for this pleaseeee?

    xxx

  • dido i luv this

  • there's a link to it in the description i think.

  • oh ok thank you :P

  • All these people that are in the crowd dont know what they are seeing this pure magici would seriously sacrifice my left nut to be able to go back in time and see these guys on the stage and this video just is the most amazing because of how much heart went into it

  • This is one of my favorite recordings of her live, and I listen to a lot of her music. So Thank you for this video, and if it ever gets taken off the internet for any reason whatsoever, please please please re post!

  • this song makes me cry wen angel and collins sing it...but with idina *goosebumps*<33

  • "to look young enough to still play it" *pause*

    "in the right lighting"

    lol.....god, I love her to peices!

  • that was hysterical, and every1 does!!!<33

  • JEEZ this women is AMAZING! and she can belt like there is NO tomorrow!

  • Omg! 0:33 I have that jacket! :D Well, one that looks like it anyway xD

  • I luv Idina dis girl can sang oh she can blow.

  • This does kinda remind me of Alanis Morisette. So good. Brought me to tears.

  • Oh my Lord. This was... phenomenal... It almost brought me to tears. Brilliant job, Idina. ♥ Amazing cover of an amazing song. --Judo

  • i'm not sure if Idina says it here, but at some point she said that this was her favorite song from RENT, and (since it's my favorite song too) it just made me love it all the more!!

  • p town!? i fucking love p-town!!!!!!

  • This was taken in p town? I almost went to see her there! I was on vacation, and missed her by 2 days. It was the end of the summer of 2005 i think...

  • Amazing - she has such a powerful voice

  • heyy shes singing ill cover you.

    i love herrr.

  • duhh...

  • I've never heard her sing that song before. it was beautiful. Thank you for posting her whole chit chat about rent too.

  • Wow.. that's all I can say. She is so talented. She is that type of person that you would just love to be her friend. I love her!!

  • I just listened to it again! Her voice makes me shiver! She's so talented!!!

  • i ♥ Idina Menzel, she is an amazing vocalist

  • Dammit. The moment she started singing I got goosebumps, and by the end of the song I was fighting back tears. Idina is amazing.

  • wow. i get what you meant about the tears. She is SO amazing and inspiring!

  • she is sooo funny!

  • oh my god i got goosebumps and started crying from the first note that came out of her mouth ... she's so amazing

  • LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Idina!!!! She's my "hero"!!!

  • This is very different. Somehow, it reminds me just a little tiny bit of Alanis Morissette. Idina is gorgeous and has so much talent.

  • Idina's a fantastic singer - anyone who disagrees clearly doesnt know what they are on about

  • That was beautiful

  • Omg! Shes such an amazing singer and an amazing person! IDINA RULES!!!

  • love it

  • Id like to see you sing as good as her

  • i love you too.

  • why don't you like her if ur name is glinda the good? Because idina was elphaba!

  • I wasn't talking about Idina. I was trying to reply to someone who said they didn't like her. Sorry for the mixup, I guess it didn't show that I was replying. Anyway, Idina Menzel is amazing, and she made the best Elphaba ever. Sorry. I really do love her. ( . . . not like that.)

  • oops! i hate it when that happens

  • Me too. Sorry about the misunderstanding.

  • gah. I wasn't saying that she's not a good singer, I love her. I was just saying that she sounded nasaly in this song.

  • She actually sounds a little like Alanis Morissette, if you ask me...

  • Such a great movie, great song, great everything. Idina's version is so pretty - it ties with the reprise in the actual musical/movie for my favorite rendition of the song.

  • She did REALLY GOOD

  • Wow! Idina's version sounds awesome! I don't know if I like the original or this one better! They're both so good!

  • SHe did good! I like it

  • omg she's amazing! just freaking pure talent! i loooove her! thank u!

  • i dont like this version

  • I agree with you 110%.

  • i dont really either. its okay at some parts but idk.

  • idina's beautiful voice. I love this!

  • This is beautiful.  I love Idina's version.

  • Would you mind posting the link to the intro as well? I would be really greatful. I can trade you for a Wicked Audio too if you'd like. Thanks so much!

  • Argh..I wanted to reply on your comment but I accidentally deleted it. Well, I did use your audio because I really loved, loved, LOVED it! I'll give you credit on it ok ;)?

  • that was amazing. The video made me cry. this is definately my favorite song and couple from RENT.

  • she's pretty good at the song it sounds better when its a male doing it but she does it well good job idina!

  • Omg. Shivers up spine. I <3 Idina.

  • I am crying

  • uhm...  to the person who put the video, you're probably gonna think im really dumb but, where is p-town?

  • p-town is the nickname for provincetown in massachusetts. apparently it's a pretty gay town; literally. lots of homosexuals reside there, and vacation there. and don't feel stupid. i did research on it cuz i didn't where or what the hell it was. we don't get too many stories about provincetown down here in texas. :)

  • I LVOE IT THERE!!!!!!! haha its near cape cod in massachusetts. near where i live. i was like hey mom can we go amping there and shes like dont you know that there are like a lot of gays there and im like duh thats why i want to gooo. gay people are so nice like they are so cool(not sarcastic)

  • no offesnse to some of you that r only liking this song b/c idina likes it..thats a little poserish...

  • K this is like 2007... who the hell says "poserish"? WOW! GET THE HELL OF YOUTUBE...

  • Seriously. Shut up

  • i love her!!!!! This is one of my favorite vocal preformances for her

  • I LOVE HER VERSION!!! im totally gonna have it played at my wedding!! I love idina!!! you know she used to be a wedding singer?? i wanna see those damn wedding video's!!! she rocks I want this to be just audio so i can play it on my ipod... can you send it to me ?

  • there's a link in the description box to download the song. :) if you don't know how to use it just tell me.

  • I'd really like to download this song but do u need to buy it to get it?? When i clicked free download it was only 1 sec of the song T__T plz help!

  • after you click the link there'll be the header for the website. under that it says "MEGAUPLOAD" with an arrow next to it. next to the arrow it says "please enter" and then three letters. all you have to do is type in the letters and press "download". it takes about 45 sec to download, then you click the download button and save it to your computer. if that doesn't work just tell me and we'll figure out a way to get the song to you. don't worry you'll get the song one way or another. :)

  • I tried downloading it again and its only 21 sec. now...why cant it just load the whole thing?? *sigh* ive tried it five times now. please if you have any idea....T__T

  • uhhhhh she did NOT have surgery and she DOES NOT have a fake voice box!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • what the hell?? A "fake voice box"??? That is pretty damn funny. Where can I buy one? Just like Ms. Menzel's, please?! God, this is my favorite thing I've ever read on YouTube. lmao. You just made my day.

  • me too! that was the funniest thing i've read thank you!!

  • yes, that was just so ridiculous, it was damn funny!

  • i love idina, she has an amazing voice!

  • God Your Dumb....She DIDNT HAVE SURGERY

  • I doubt that, how would u know anyway?!

  • Uh Wrong.

  • uh...no way. I don't think she'd get a surgery on her voice box...

  • please tell me how you know this. you prob just made that up to get attention.

  • Note how whenever you ask for specifics, liars clam up real fast!

  • Yeah, she's just making that up cause she's jealous, hey, I guess the end of ur YouTube name really fits ur attitude, BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ok, where the heck would you get something stupid like that? You're just jealous because Idina has an amazing voice! I don't even think surgery like that is possible, and I really don't think "fake voice boxes" exist. Stop spreading STUPID rumors that aren't true. Idina Rocks!
