I love Lea's body language. She does things so GALINDA while singing this song, and she looks and sounds so much like Elphaba when she's singing Defying Gravity. And don't get me started on how amazing her Fantine and Eponine are. xD
OH MY GOD. It's my favourite singer singing one of my favourite songs from one of my favourite musicals, a song by Galinda, the role I most want. God. Lea is my idol, and I have no more words.
The sad fact is that.. In order to cast Lea as Glinda they need to find a Elphaba that has just as much star quality... which hasnt been the case since Ana Gastyr played the role of Elphaba...
I love Lea!! I think it's extremely refreshing to see her performing something upbeat and perky since she's already a master at dramatic balads.... BRAVA!!
@bonbonquest Yeah I know - followed her career since Annie and sang her songs too. What I just want is for her to get the attention she deserves - you know, like the spots occupied by Bette Midler, Celine Dion, etc.
@xscandalo ohh... yeah.. I feel you. It's just that her quality isn't for the masses. Her voice is kind for sophisticated audiences. Non-intellectuals wouldn't really understand what Lea does... Bette exploded in a period when real music and musical theater was appreciated not for the belting but for the quality of voices (even if the greats did belt). and Celine is, well, a mainstream singer...
But in due time, maybe... Allegiance is coming up and I believe it calls for another Tony. :)
@xscandalo: She IS a star. Not your very-popular-but-untalented-run-of-the-mill POP STAR, but definitely a talented, multi-awarded musical theater GREAT who is known internationally!
i think i just peed my self... this is just awesome... she's awesome...

She's truly a master in vocalizing, just the fact that she can imitate someone else's voice. She's my favorite!

OK, now Lea is better taking on Christine Chenoweth's song than Idina Menzel's.
It's almost identical to the original.
