Legally Blonde Remix - Kate Shindle is GLORIOUS

[shiningfingerfilms]

Great note, but there's something about it that makes me believe it's not full. It has a weird, disconected-sounding soft spot when she slides up to the C. Makes me believe it's very strong reinforced falsetto.Awesome note regardless. The vibrato is killer.

[pugsleyaddams1000]

Is kate shindle vivin

[fmcambo6251]

Choreo in this show is so ridiculously lame

[WickedFanJennii]

Kate Shindle. You legend. That is all. 

[FernandoLopes0691]

IMO, there's no trace of mixing there. That, to ME, sounds like a pure (and quite open, healthy sounding) belt. I hardly ever consider someone to be belting past the G5, most girls start mixing, but Shindle? Oh dear! She can belt the tessitura of an aria if she wants to.

[delibessylvia2]

this high amazing .Doesnr sound like fullhead voice .like most of the sopranos use .She mixed i think .could have used more vibrato toThe high c is a must for the role of glinda in wicked .She has to sing it every night and even goes higher

[goodyougetastar]

It's lame when I listen to the cast recording now....

[theatregirl456]

So i was reading the comments and i was like what's the big deal? I can easily hit a high C. Then I head Kate Shindle in all her fierceness.... omigod

[goodyougetastar]

Ohmygod.

TGNRSULGKSEFM

Also, I never knew that the spaces on the stage where it separates were so evident until now...

[bogganboy]

WHAT

[WickedFanJennii]

Oh my god...Kate Shindle just stands out here. Totally. Amazing!!!

[ThruAcceptingRules]

I love Kate Shindle so much!! And this is only part of the reason...she's so smart, and so sweet. And she can sing like this??? WOW!!

[broadwaybaby1594]

she's fab :)

[dippydai]

I get goosebumps EVERY time I listen to this

[amirulzain]

I am a guy and I can do a high c!!

[heresmysweetusername]

@amirulzain great. does it sound like this?

[amirulzain]

@heresmysweetusername kinda. a bit squeaky if i dont warm up though

[TerribleGreenBlizzrd]

She is belting (mixing) a C6 okay? A "soprano high C". An insanely difficult note to mix, near impossible. For anyone, ever.  Yay everyone happy now?

[hannahhershman29]

that last note is RIDICULOUS.

[miixeddupp]

score! I can hit that note!!! :D

[wickedphant0m]

WHAT!?!?!? Kate Skindle...you are too much for words.

[wickedmusicalmad]

Oh my god that audience was really enjoying that

[inickberke]

C. That was a C. Not the comfortable C, no, the lyric soprano C that many opera sopranos struggle with.

Kate Shindle. Are. You. Kidding. Me!?!?!?

(This also means you're RIDICULOUS and amazing.)

[RaWrZzZz]

@inickberke *stares* This is the most incredible belted high C, but as a lyric soprano...this is an insanely easy note to sing (head voice, of course). I can sing almost an octave above it.

[milwanevidencee]

she is a GODDESS.

[robbieiswicked]

it's incredible... caroline keiff did the same at her last show :)

[kahlocore]

Is it possible to fall in love with someone based on a note? 'Cause I think I'm in love with Kate Shindle.

[silenthillmaster755]

Seriously showstopping.

[GodImSoTalented]

i just died inside.

[showfreak101]

You betta sang betch!!!

[rentobbesion]

omg that last note gave me goosebumps!

[renagadeluke1234]

okay so, I just instantly started to cry at that note...like, full body goosebumps and tears.... Fuck.

[oNegLeEk]

umm yeah that last note gave me goosebumps she's amazing

[FozzyForman]

The audience goes insane for Elle's re-entrance...and then goes FREAKING WILD when Kate hits the note...bow down. Bow. Down.

[Elphaboy]

SHE"S CRACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WOAH

[ohmagaod]

oh yeah sure, let me just whip out this crazy high note and belt it as loud as i can and still sound amazing. sure, no big. i'm just awesome like that.

MERCY, she's good.

[ravenrandom]

HOLY SHIT woman. She totally wanted to blow that C above high C on the last night just to say, "hey... i CAN sing higher" XD.

That last note during that song gives me chills EVERY TIME. Absolutely love Shindle :)

[moviefreak316]

Kate is just AMAZING.

[NicestKidnTown]

I could watch this over and over. It makes me so happy.

[richhanson59]

Margot was played by Kate Rockwell.

[pinicolada026]

OMG, this woman is so awesome! A fully belted high C. Here in Holland, we have some woman with high belts, who can belt up to a A or sometimes a A-flat, but this is amazing!

[xoxRufus]

This is amazing, you can almost tell the whole cast is trying not to smile : )

She is glorious!

[Soon2beonbroadway]

She is SO fantastic! But idk if that is actually belting...still, incredible! I love her! :D

[aden150]

somebody needs to do some research and see if a high C has ever been belted on Broadway before... I think Kate might have a record.

[RaWrZzZz]

@aden150 probably the first high c bellted on broadway EVER. most broadway singers are way to careful with their voices.

[emilyonfirst]

wow!

thats amazing!

[Kehoe051]

LOL...

Cool...

[tdonset08]

and was it annaleigh as margot?

[PartridgeE]

umm it might be, i can't remember and my playbill is back home 300 miles away. sorry!

[tdonset08]

@PartridgeE haha thats ok thnx anyway =]

[broadwaybrent367]

@PartridgeE no, it was haven burton... annaleigh left the show to join the cast of wicked?

[bok0306]

Yep, she was Glinda for a while :)

[Jman383]

@PartridgeE if it's the closing cast, then no. i think haven burton or rihannon was margot. but that's just a guess!

[osu5587js]

@PartridgeE its Kate Rockwell...she was the last Margot.

[jewey896]

@tdonset08 no Annaleigh left legally blonde about a year before this like September 2007. Because she started playing Glinda in Wicked on Broadway on October 7, 2007 - May 11, 2008. Then she transferred to the Chicago production of Wicked from June, 2008 - January 2009 to close it.

[tdonset08]

@jewey896 ohhh thanks soo much

[violinrox24]

@tdonset08 I think Haven Burton is Margot

[emilyyyy81]

@tdonset08 no. someone else has the closing night curtain call and it wasn't annaleigh unfortunately.

[cooleo505]

@tdonset08 no it'd be Haven Burton

[flyingrainbowpigs]

@tdonset08 No it's Kate Rockwell as Margot

[ihateu20]

@tdonset08 no it was haven

[bnorem09]

@ihateu20 no it was bailey actually

[ihateu20]

@bnorem09 i wasnt saying haven was elle i was saying haven was margot

[bnorem09]

@ihateu20 whoops sorry, my bad!

[ARiv113]

@tdonset08 This was not Annaleigh as Margot

[kooolkyl]

@tdonset08 no Kate Rockwell closed the show as Margot

[imlamesowhat]

@tdonset08 pretty sure it's haven burton, unless someone replaced her before the show closed

[wickedismylife22]

@imlamesowhat I think it is kate rockwell i saw her three weeks before the show closed, not as a understudy

[MrDefyinggravity1]

@tdonset08 annaleigh wasnt margot she left before thr closing show

[Broadwayismylife1000]

@MrDefyinggravity1 But then it was Haven............ I'm confused

[tdonset08]

was this the WHOLE original cast????

[PartridgeE]

No, this was the closing show/cast so it was Bailey as Elle

[tdonset08]

ohhh kk thanks

[Ryanlaskey]

@tdonset08 and haven as margot

[angelxschunard]

That was SICK and fucking flawless!

[ohhappy08]

Wow. :O

[defyit17]

Remember that time I had a friend that can sing this song? And she is SICK and FIERCE when she sings it?

Yeah....that's right. Just wait til she's on B-way. Love ya, Connie!!

[xoxRufus]

OMG! i love that note and now I adore it she's amazing, wish I could do that! x

[riojames1]

oh my god ! The original recording and score, going up to top A flat was enough for me, I was blown away by that, belting at that pitch, but this, this is something else! Wow, top C, in full voice, just, other-wordly! Amazing, oh my god!!

[dacanceruwishuwere94]

still drooling over this haha.......i mean, kate's belt and mix are FLAW. LESS. !!!!! man, i'm waiting for the day i get a role where i can show off notes like this.... lol

[Jigglesw]

Good God I wish I could do that

[babybob300]

is this for trade?

[cdgunzz97]

i had to turn my volume down from all the screaming :S lol Kate Shindle is amazing and she should of gone on tour :[

[MadHattress330]

Chills. All over my body.

[fmcambo6251]

oh my god thats a C. a C above high C. thats gotta be a world record. absolutely amazing. she's one of a kind

[Jman383]

@fmcambo6251 no it's a high C! but it's glorious :)

[fmcambo6251]

@Jman383 yeah thats what i said its a high C

[Jman383]

@fmcambo6251 you said it was a C ABOVE high C, didn't you?

[bcdada]

@fmcambo6251 no it not its only a step above what the note really is whcih is really still amazing!!!

[fmcambo6251]

@bcdada hate to argue, but i have perfect pitch. it's a C.

[bcdada]

@fmcambo6251 a C above high C??? That's kinda impossiable and this coming from a person who can belt a high C.

[fmcambo6251]

@bcdada kate shindle is one of a kind. she belts an A-flat above high C on the recording, and this special filmed performance she hits the major third above it.

[bcdada]

@fmcambo6251 but as i just sat at my piano i didnt undertstand you logic. My high C is diffrent from the you high C. She is singing my High C. which is your C above your high C. Which is an octave up of middle C

[fmcambo6251]

you clearly don't know much about vocal music. I am a music education major with a voice concentration and know a lot of stuff, dude. In the last bit of this video, she BELTS a high C above high C. TWO octaves above middle C.

[bcdada]

@fmcambo6251 i just said that im agreement with you. i just said your high c is diffrent from my high c that ive been taught. so really idk why your getting upset!!

[fmcambo6251]

@bcdada good. glad it's settled. sorry about any confusion :)

[WaysOfTheMaster]

@fmcambo6251 "you clearly don't know much about vocal music."

I like that, it made me laugh :) go to his profile and watch the videos.. Or take into consideration that he won 1/7 solo awards at the New York Heritage Festival (out of thousands), and won Grand Overall Singer in the Summer 2010 AMTC. (Acting, Music, and Talent Competition, the top talent convention in the world)...

Go to the AMTC website..

(Video on the right, Grand Overall Singer)

So who knows nothing about vocal music!?

[fmcambo6251]

@WaysOfTheMaster go to my videos idiot check my shit out you may be impressed

[WaysOfTheMaster]

@fmcambo6251 I wasn't making an insults, just pointing something out to defend someone who will be revolutionary.. Also, I looked at a bunch of your vids before I even made the comment, to see who I was dealing with. I wasn't strongly impressed, I feel like your singing is good, but high notes are not strong or pure enough, and your piano playing (I am a piano prodigy, began at age 2) seems to be staccato and more focused on volume than quality.

[fmcambo6251]

@WaysOfTheMaster well i appreciate the feedback very much. thanks a lot

[WaysOfTheMaster]

@fmcambo6251 However bcdada is 17, with a vocal range of almost 6 octaves from E3 to C8 (the highest note on the piano), and can still belt them out stronger than most of the "greatest singers" I've ever heard.

[ihateu20]

@fmcambo6251 no people can hit higher

[petterwoien]

Oh, and imagine if YOu were an ordinary girl who won a contest and got to be the leading lady on a Broadway show and it was closing knight..

[petterwoien]

night*

[rshaw3188]

go KATE!!!

[staticoranges]

I love how everybody is talking about how much a bitch Bailey is because she ran out on stage and "blew a kiss to the audience". First of all, the "kiss" looks an awful lot like the actual choreography to me. And second of all, Bailey doesn't need to outshine Kate. At the end of the song, the spotlight is on Bailey, not Kate. If anything Kate was outshining Bailey with her amazing riff.

[petterwoien]

If Laura had done it, people would be like "OMG you guys, she looks so excited! I love her"

Or if it was Kristin Chenoweth... Imagine HEr singing "oh, oh, oh, oh, OH, Much better"...

[vincexthien]

she runs for a little and then stops to dance. Big deal.

[vincexthien]

i really want to see this musical tour but no one will take me

[littlecorinthian]

Holy high note, Batman! Kate blew it out of the water! :0) Thank you for sharing this!!

[pheebster1405]

WOW watch Kate go!!!!!

[mecdort]

Bailey makes me sick when she blew a kiss to the audience.

[mmm522]

Seriously Bailey, stay in character and don't blow a kiss to the audience, this isn't a concert and they weren't cheering for you, they were cheering for Kate

[babybob300]

i totally agree

[broadwaybrent367]

@mmm522 wow... jealous, much? it's very much elle woods to do. go suck some. you're a jerk!

[mmm522]

Ummm way to bring up something I said 6 months ago? Why am I jealous of Bailey, look at the great career she's having.....(sarcasm) and thanks for telling me to suck some? I'm sorry how old are you? 12?

[jdthemindfreak]

Omigod!! Kate Shindle is the greatest Viviene ever!

[rshaw3188]

Towards the end before Kate fabulous belt...Bailey blew the crowd a kiss. She was still out shined by Kate's belt.

[dacanceruwishuwere94]

really kate?!?!?!?! a SOPRANO C...BELTED?!?!?!?! i am more than amazed at this. thanks for posting cuz people need to know on closing night, ANYTHING is possible! lol

[somuchbetrthanb4]

its in extreme mixed voice and theres a lot of head voice in that note. its nto a belt in the least

[dacanceruwishuwere94]

i agree a little, but the placement in the vowel is spread, which indicates more of a belt. head voice was present, definitely, but having that kind of power (even with a microphone) on such a note had to have some chest in it........ that's just my take though.

[somuchbetrthanb4]

no your a hundred percent right. there is some chest, but its not a belt, because its in mixed voice!

[BwayPianist391]

A strong mix is considered a belt by some!

[brown1069]

0:06

[BrdwyGerry]

when?

[brown1069]

you can see kate wiping tears a few times

:(

[Milkshakesnpiano]

-what would possess bailey to run out like Godzilla was chasing her.

-If you learn one thing for LBB, its to always strut like a lady.

-Kate Shindle blew this out of the water!

[FuckingFierheller]

I can explain why Bailey ran out. She is trying to be the centre of attention. But everyone was waiting to see Kate not Bailey.

[staticoranges]

I'm positive that's why. It couldn't have anything to do with the high energy of the show or anything. She just wanted to outshine Kate because the full attention wasn't on her, since it's a major plot point for her character and all. You've got to be absolutely sure it was purely ego-driven, because you're Bailey Hanks' publicist, right?

[somuchbetrthanb4]

BAILEY IS A GIANT JACKASSS

[dacanceruwishuwere94]

hahahahaha as much as i didn't wanna say it...... im sorry, but ur right. bailey looked like godzilla was chasing her lol.

[petterwoien]

I love Kate!

legally bloooOOOOOiiIIIIIIIIIINDDE!!!

[GreenBootlegs]

What is the issue with Bailey running out. She was prolly all pumped up. Like anyone could do better?

[TheQueenofBroadway]

Kate Shindle is Glorious and so is Bailey so suck that losers. if anyone is the worst singer on this earth its freakin Nicolette Hart.

[mmm522]

Wow real mature....telling us all to suck it.........how old are you 12?

[sclubseven5]

bailey looks awful running out.

Elle is supposed to look sweet and innocent defending a serious case, bailey looks way too fierce.

[SodorMR]

look at bailey lol! she looks like an asshole!

[jldmurray13]

Bailey looked so bad running out of the doors . Sorry But i think she was the worst choice for elle!

[somuchbetrthanb4]

honestly bailey looks like such a jackass running out the doors.

[FuckingFierheller]

I know, why is that?

[rentwickedandsuch]

Because shes the worst singer/actress/dancer on this earth

[sclubseven5]

how is she supposed to run?

[sorafdfs]

She isn't, she should strut like a real lady.

[jastully]

DAAAAAYUM.

[ElphabaGoesBashful]

Finally a vid! Amazinggg.

[GellME]

Love it!

[jnby15]

Oh. I'm just Kate Shindle. Just belting a high C.

Nurthin.
