Seth Rudetsky deconstructs WICKED's Eden Espinosa singing from HAIR!

[FanaticOfTVD]

"Where ever her voice is, here or here it's brilliant!" AGREED

[DSTcenterpOiNtE]

"What is going on with my upstaging?" Seth, where have you been my life? You're like a choir of angels! LOL

[Leadingdude]

"I don't know what her voice is, but it's crazy."

Seth I love you! Hope to meet you someday.

[eLust]

"too hostile"? HAAA i love you seth.

[broadwaybabe99]

"She literally back phrases on a G. COME ON!" Hahahahhahaha

[raptorboy4]

never too hostile!

[KaraMichelKirby]

Keep the Eden deconstructions coming! She is one of my favorite female vocalists!

[lavendarluv3]

Love the ice cream man outside, hahah

[thisiamdenied]

What an awesome recording. :D Pardon me while I go stalk YouTube for more of her and fangirl for a while.

[mani1239]

It's on iTunes.

[1musicalnote]

yes yes deconstruct Karen Olivo! thanks seth, for these amazing videos!!

btw you can totally buy the CD, anywhere.. lol people are lazy!

[Koolm5]

Please deconstruct Karen Olivo....thanks :D

[Selendomono]

Haha I agree with the statement about not being able to find the CD. First time I heard of it I looked it up on Amazon and had it in a week.

[ak92092]

sassafrass. love it.

[showersinger34]

how does she sing like this and not fall over dead after? how is that possible????

[KatieGrrl1016]

We did this song when we did HAIR at my teen community theater, and this was the ONLY professionally recorded version we could find. And we all absolutely fell in love with this version. Love me some Eden Espinosa!

[wew1llr0ckyou]

@KatieGrrl1016 you did Hair for teen community theatre? I imagine that was quite edited :P

[KatieGrrl1016]

@wew1llr0ckyou We actually only edited out the nudity and some of the more racial songs. All the drugs and free love stuff was still in the show. And I was Margaret Mead, because we didn't have a guy who could pull of drag except for the guy playing Claude.

[MinervasGarden]

Thank you, Seth--another great deconstruction!

[tellmewhatsahappenin]

oh come on,seth. you can't cut the drugs out of Hair!!!!

[crazypoundpupp]

@tellmewhatsahappenin haha indeed, theres no show left if you cut out the drugs :-P

[BlueJeanBaby012]

This CD is on iTunes...

Love. this song.

[muffinwoman45]

I can't tell you how much these videos have helped my own singing. You're comments about placement in the mask and such, I've really started paying more attention to what I'm doing. However, I'm still nowhere near the singers you feature lol

[karenrousso]

Bb???????  Not possible! Has anyone else ever done that?

[emiemipoemi]

fffffffffffffffffuuuuuuu-

that was incredible

[deltanuxkcrp]

Seth, I can't even deal with you. I love you so much! You're hilarious. This is my favorite song!

[RainbowTammy]

Damn, she sounds amahzing

[itsboq]

she sounds so much like Idina in this recording...

[ExAxLxPx12]

dude, Eden is fucking brilliant!

[Tanja0Marie0Jane]

some people train to belt that high, and then you hear Eden and notice you're training wasn't as accomplished as you thought! She is suuuuch a natural!

Brava Eden!

(but please quit Wicked, it's ruining your voice :()

[ExAxLxPx12]

@Tanja0Marie0Jane why do you say Wicked is ruining her voice?

[Tanja0Marie0Jane]

@ExAxLxPx12 well, first of I love Eden! Don't get the wrong impression. But Wicked is, even for singers like Eden, a difficult, vocally highdemanding show. And when you listen to recordings of her songs now, you can hear her strain sometime. Look at what happened with Kendra Kassebaum. And with Idina. Compare Idina's first with Idina's opening in London, you'll hear a difference.

[ExAxLxPx12]

@Tanja0Marie0Jane oh gottcha

[deltanuxkcrp]

@Tanja0Marie0Jane Ouch!

[nxt2normal]

Yes! I was hoping you would deconstruct Eden.

I'm in love with the entire CD. Especially Sho's version of I Believe In Love.

[deltanuxkcrp]

@nxt2normal OMG, the best songs on there are this, Believe in Love and Julia Murney's "Where Do I Go?" I can't even deal! AMAZING.

[nxt2normal]

@deltanuxkcrp Seriously! And Gavin Creel's "Going Down" basically makes my life.

[deltanuxkcrp]

@nxt2normal WHY DID I FORGET THAT SONG?! There's just so many amazing ones!!!

[MissSara121]

Great Video as usual. I love all of your deconstructions and you have introduced me to some great music. I would love it if you could do some more contemporary stuff or... just more Barbara Streisand.

[Movidude74]

Fantastic Album!!

And I have such a huge crush on her
