Idina was always my favourite character on RENT. i am 15 and i watched RENT 3 years ago and i didn't really like it i have to say..but i loved this woman! (as a character and as a singer and as a character). i was pretty impressed but only now i realised what a legend she is! My rile model for ever! Love you Idina!!!
g rent, and she sang songs that she wrote. she is incredably charming and sweet as a person, so alltogether, she proved to me personally that she is the best in the roles that she plays. even if you disagree and say that another very talented woman (such as eden, who i do in fact, adore) played it better, at the very least you have to agree that idina is pretty fricking awesome.
i do love idina, tho i dont think this was her best preformace... quite strange and think she could have done better. But in do think she is the best maureen when it comes to take me or leave me, and she is BY FAR the best elphaba. that could be my idina obsession speaking, but even if she isnt the best preformer in someone else's opinion, she is a fabualous charming person. i saw her on tour in the mann center in philly and i was dumbstruck. she had a bit of everything. she sang wicked, she san
@musiclovr5196 how bout no. BTW Idina doesn't need you to stick up for her. Idina is NASAL and an average singer, Eden Espinosa was a better maureen and elphaba oh and you can keep posting up your shit comebacks it doesn't make a difference, my opinion of Idina will never change.
@gezbez are you crazy? idina menzel is the greatest person alive. so stop critisizing her. lets see how you can sing. shes the best so shut up. thanks!
@WHiTEGLUEx3 ahh no she isn't. i've seen a hell more of greater singers and performers than her. I actually can sing and its not nasal like that. I think its best you stop saying shes the greatest person alive, clearly shes not.
whoa..i just watched the OBC opening night before i watched this as a comparison...she has evolved as a performer so much! both performances are great in their own ways...it's hard to pick a favorite! i just love idina PERIOD! :D
@kleinesKind89 I'm with you....I used to actually kind of dislike this song, until I saw Eden do it in the "Live On Broadway" film.... I don't hate Idina's performance, though...I just felt that Eden put more "oomph" into it.

Hm, I don't know, but I like Eden Espinosa's version of this song better.
No question Idina did very well but it seems so... innocent, Eden has somehow a little more emotion in it.
That's what I think ;)
