  • What a strong song. Clearly it says it all and so should be listened to carefully.

  • this song always makes me think of my senior year (class of 2008), introduction to teaching, the teacher made dvds as a grad present for us and used this song for the farewell to the class of 08 section, gets me everytime 

  • She is so gawjuss <3 Idina

  • Wow ... this song is just perfect right now .. I just came out to e v e r y o n e I know ... and I was so afraid .. I was thinking they would leave me alone for being bisexual/pansexual .. but they didn't. I didn't lose anyone ... no, my friendships are way deeper now. No need to hide anymore.

  • @madsinclare ikr! thier both amazing, i cant understand how more ppl dont know her. But isnt it Kristin Chenoweths Birthday today?

  • Whenever I need motivation in my life, this is my song... this album speaks my life!!!

  • i freakin love idina in wicked and as a person! <3 i want to meet her soo bad! she is my role model <3

  • It isn't 37 peoples' chance to be brave.

  • Yes the people dont like, Who the hell care is you dont could apreciate the real music! Idina is Amazing no matter whar she sing, I really feel sometimes her talented isn´t apreciated enough!

  • If you don't like it, why do you bother listen to it? Seriously guys, do you have to be so childish to troll on her? She beautiful and has a very wonderful voice. Come one people, am I the only one seeing the wrong in listening to something you don't like? If you don't like it..simple resolution and it's called 'Don't listen to it'. Do you hate her because shes not like Miley Cyrus or any of those other fake whores? Is it because she sings something thats meaningful and deep to the heart?

  • i dont get how anyone can dislike this. they were probably mezmorized by idina's beautiful voice that they auctually missed the lke button!!

  • 37 people are so so deprived

  • Comment removed

  • 37 people have been running in the wrong direction.

  • talent. that's what this singer has. :)

  • If only I had half her talent and singing voice. I think we all wish that lol

  • @YourOasis97 she has more than enough talent in her just her pinky finger to supply the world with amazing talent. 

  • @VintageRose503 that's true xD

  • @MayBabyJones I'm sorry to hear that *hugs*. Your so young too. I'm 22 now. Her songs helped me way before he died because I've always been an insecure person and after he died I stopped listening but months and years later I listened again and it really does help. I'm glad it helped you. Stay strong, I'm sure your father is proud.

  • this song is beautiful. it gives me the chills everytime. idina is truly a goddess.

  • Idina's voice blows me away every time I hear it.

  • 35 people missed the like button

  • This songs deserves so much more then just a click of a 'like' button

  • Musically, is pretty common, but as lyrics they're better though

  • This song helped me through the death of my Nan, the most important person in my life.

    Everytime I get upset, I remind myself that 'I can't be afraid, 'cause it's my turn to be brave'.

    Thank you Idina.

  • i tryly Idolise this woman, there is no words to describe how unbelievably amazing she is. Truly inspires me to belive that my dreams will to come true.

  • If Idina Menzel and Darren Criss had a love-child that would be me:)

  • one word: wow....

  • To all the Idina haters out there-- Idina is unique and amazing in her own way. She doesn't need to copy others songs to Breathtaking! So what if this song has a similiar beat, most pop songs your hear on the radio are all autotuned and sound exactly the same!

  • sorry to everyone who got sent here by someone, but I got sent her by my love for Idina. Love you!!!

  • I got sent here cos I was listening to Glee's mix :S

  • im singing this for a audition :]

  • I love Idina but this sounds like a rip off of Tori Amos' "China." It's practically the same song with different words.

  • @mushroomhead777 I'm sorry but I do believe your ears are broken. There is a similarity in style but the rhythm, tempo, and melody are completely different. I mean, they're both played on a piano but I'm pretty sure that doesn't make this a rip off. Unless Tori Amos ripped "China" off Billy Joel's "New York State of Mind." But maybe Billy Joel ripped that off of Beethoven's 9th symphony...

  • @MissJNMelvin I dunno. The beginning just sounded like "China" to me.

  • Idina Menzel is the greatest thing that has ever happened to this planet. If they found the fountain of youth tomorrow, Idina Menzel would still be the greatest thing ever. EVER. <3 her.

  • IDINA MENZEL IS MY IDOL

  • Comment removed

  • who in the world dilikes this video!!!!

  • @drygravity795 31 people are cowardly. And souless. Sad times. :(

  • Idina Menzel is everything I want to be and and more

  • I love this friggin song, like seriously... love it

  • thumbs up if demi's mom sent you here :)

  • every time i hear her chills instantly run down my spine. shes what i listen to every time i need to escape, and i get to. thank you for being idina menzel..you are my inspiration<3

  • Idina Menzel is one of the best singer/songwriters in the world. Unlike Justin Beiber, Taio Cruz or any other rap stars on the radio today, she write songs that mean something to HER, she puts herself out there and lets her guard down. Terribly UNDERrated. and SUCH an amazing actress. She and Kristin Chenoweth were the best Elphaba and Glinda ever to grace broadway, they lit the flame under Wicked that is still burning today <3

  • @defygravitybewicked you mean guh-linda :D

  • @defygravitybewicked Idina is great. So is Justin. Don't hate something because it isn't your taste. It's just too disrespectful.

  • I love Idina<3 long live Elphaba and Maureen :D

  • i know it's not really much of an issue, but honestly, she's awesome. the least you could do is spell her name right people. especially since it's right there.

    I-D-I-N-A M-E-N-Z-E-L

    it would be very embarrassing if i spelled her name wrong here >.<

  • Adina...I don't know if you read these, but I'm separating from my husband. All I ever wanted to do was mend his broken heart..be a light when his world was daunting, and in that I have lost my own reflection. I'm finally getting it back. Today is the first day of the rest of my life. It's my turn to be brave.

    Carlos. I'm so, so sorry your church fired you. People turn their backs on each other, even people in a church. But God does and will always love you because you are His child.

  • I love this song, this is the first time I've ever heard it but it's brill, Idina Menzel is just amazing, there is not a word in the world that expresses how good Ididna's voice is

  • I immediately broke down crying when I heard this song. I learned that my dysfunctional family was caused by my father who cheated on my mom since even before their marriage. My parents don't want to get a divorce because they're worried it will harm me even though my dad still sees that woman. I feel that I'm the cause of my parent's issues because they are together when they don't want to. But now I know I must be brave and just live my life and be strong all on my own.

    Thank you Idina. 

  • this song spoke to me. It is my life in a song. I was afraid to leave home and go to college and now im on my own and "i know its my turn to be brave". Thank you Idina I love you! I started crying when I heard this song I love you Idina!

  • I prefer this song to "I Stand." It's so moving and beautiful.

  • I will be the next Elphaba in Broadway!! Idina rules... she taught me everything i know about singing...

  • her voice is truely amazing, i dont think she did as good with this song then i stand. but i love her voice. it's also the first time iv eva heard her n shes well gud x

  • I truly love this song and everysong Idina sings. My friend played Idina for me and I haven't stopped listening to her.

    Her songs really touch me. I am at a crossroads in my life right now and her songs fit me so much. As I am sure many others too.

    She is such an inspiration to me and I will continue to listen to her and enjoy.

  • omg this is soooo divine how could one person make your heart swoop

    with the sound of her oh so incredible voice and as for the lyrics  wow

    (and nooo i am not a gay man)

  • I absoutly im in love with her voice and music she is what i call Music. So inspirational. I love her. She is my idol I wish more people like her and kate voegale where more famous they know what music is. I mean like with britney spears, lady gaga miley cyrus ect..those people that put sexapplea to their music their more famous because of that i mean she's still pretty famous but she's not really wellknown like those people and they should be!

  • yay! we get to sing this song for show choir :D

  • you have the same last name as my cousin'

  • We did a winter guard show to this and I thought hearing the song everyday for 7 months I would get sick of the song but I still love it.

  • i just realized... at 3:48 what happened to the line "This is the moment i stand her all alone, with everything i have inside, with everything i own" They cut out 'with everything i have inside' so it's just "This is the moment i stand her all alone, with everuthing i own" And it sounds stupid because it skips in the song, and it doesn't fit in the rythm. What happened?

  • I deployed and remembered this song

  • when i listen to her in glee..i inmediately search for her songs...and when i listen her songs it's just so beautiful. She has the most amazing nostalgic and powerful voice and the lyrics are just wonderful!! Oh Ms. Idina Menzel you've got me as your fan now!!

  • im crying...this song transcends everything.

  • pretty kewl song!!

  • Comment removed

  • Okay. This is driving me nuts. Is she related to Lea Michelle? They look SO much alike and their voices are even similar. Somebody help me out!

  • @NLTlives919 haha no they're not, but they defs look like they do! Now i have a question: does anyone know where i could download her album Hope? because it's not on itunes :(

  • @mswixx12 I'm not sure she's made an album called hope....

    She's made an album called Still Can't Be Still, an album called Here and an album called I Stand

  • @ninskimig123 yes sorry, Here is the one i was thinking of, do you know where i can dl it?

  • @mswixx12 no sorry :/ but you can get the individual songs from youtube throug a youtube converter :D just search youtube converter to mp3 on google :)

  • @ninskimig123 ok thank you!

  • @NLTlives919 lol nope, not at all though they were in glee xD

  • This song gave me the courage to walk away from an emotionally abusive relationship. I never would have done it if it weren't for Idina and the strength her music gives me.

  • my brother just graduated today and before giving out the diplomas, the choir sang this song. as i listened to the lyrics, i found myself contemplating the next four years when my friends and i are to be split apart..:( i found my self stricken to tears from the lyrics, i did all i could to hide them, but now, everytime i listen to it, i still get teary-eyed..

  • Idina,

    You are my Idol! I love how you are so down to Earth and How you connect to your audiences. You are THE Elphaba and THE Maureen. You always will be. Your voice range is Ridiculously amazing, and your voice gives me goosebumps. Your lyrics are inspiring, and i only hope you keep doing what you do. I am obsessed with listening to Wicked all day long and singing to the cd. My dream is to meet you, and see you preform on stage.

    -McKenzie

  • @thetopsinger101 I met her with my two sisters a few years ago, when she was in wicked in London, because my sister was extremely ill at the time. She was so kind and is increadibly down to earth. It was deffinately worth the amount of letters that I sent.

  • my sister is a dancer and yesterday was her last recital. Their senior dance song was this and it fits perfectly. When i saw the dance yesterday i cried my eyes out. Thank you for this song.

  • Idina is an Inspiration

  • reminds me i cant depend on a hopeless love i need to be brave and save myself

  • This is off the Hook

  • aww. it not just her voice that's wonderful, the song is too. the lyrics are sooo moving. it touched me. You're my hero Idina. I love you.

  • Her songs are so meaningful <3

  • i cried so ridiculously much when i heard this :'(

    AMAZINGG!!! THIS IS MY NEW FAVORITE SONG

  • Very catchy great voice

  • great song, wrong voice. I saw Wicked front row on opening night Dec 16th 2008 at the PPAC. Donna Vivino played Elphaba and she tore the house down! I really like Idina, but there is sooo much talent out there. <3

  • Idina's voice is beautiful. I love this song.

  • OMG i LOVE this song it is the Best!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I LOVE HER VOICE

  • A very dear friend of mine ( we are military wives) just lost her husband. My husband is very sick and I've nearly lost him several times in the past 6 months.She sent me this and I cried tears of sadness for her and tears of joy for myself. I still have my husband! He does not belong to me he belongs to God. Thy will be done. a very powerful song. thank you

  • @Meegski A good song for her and you would be borrowed angels by kristin chenoweth. <3 Our boys are in my prayers, they give up so much...and as a wife you give up so much...I'll keep you and all army wives in my thoughts. Stay strong

  • Why did he say that for, he should have respect for Jewish Women Holistically. Perhaps I should say Have A Look at the Attitude of Jewish Woman and Their Dedication to G-ds Calling, Laws and Responsibility Bestowed In Them, before gripping on about how your immoral behavour has been Challenged In Gods Name., and you feel renewed by the Song of Angel in G-ds Service, I Feel Sick, Tolerance doesnt mean socially acceptable...Roll on The Time When Hebrew Women Under HIS Direction Rule The World

  • this song is incredible, it says so much and conveys so much feeling. Idina is a true artist (and a brilliant actor) I love her xxxx

  • I lOOOVVVEE YOU Idina!

  • I almost agree with JazzTrumpetNL. She has wonderful lyrics, and you have to be deaf to say she can't sing. But this type of music doesn't fully express her range and ability as well as the musical numbers do. Nevetheless, I absolutely love this song. (:

  • this song just made my life <3

  • one of my fav song of all times !!!!

  • I believe she should stick to singing in musicals, not that i don't like the song, she's just way too good to sing pop music.

  • so great and it speakes to me totally

  • She most have really practice

  • my sister danced to this as her last dance before she went to college. this still strikes me down to the core

  • Her voice is so amazing. Its like shes been just born to sing

  • It's ridiculous how appropriate this song is for me right now. I guess I never really heard the words before.

  • her songs show the perfect mix of being strong and vulnerable

  • You messed up. U said just with everything I own, But it's everything I have inside, everything I own. Otherwise, good job! :)

  • In Oct 2008 I was fired (I was fired from a church for being gay)... I was on the threshold of the church parking lot and the highway in my truck. I was crying so hard because I didn't know what was going to happen to me. I set my iPod to shuffle and this song came on... The lyrics hit me to the core and I've never been the same again. I am a new man and have purpose. Thank you Idina for writing this... It literally saved my life and I will always be grateful...

    Love,

    A. Carlos Ortiz

  • Oh my. This comment, added to the power of Menzel's Voice just blew me out of the water. It literally brought tears to my eyes. It amazes me how close minded people can be. And sometimes you just have to be brave. This is the perfect song to build courage to. The best of luck to you.

  • @virgo2leo2 . Thank you.  I'm still alive and here and as long as I have breath i'm gonna keep on keepin on.

  • @deLOCOSHOW your story is inspirational! You shouldn't have been thrown out of the church for being gay! I think God loves each and everyone of us and you shouldn't be downsized because of your sexuality! You are an inspiration to gays all over the world. I'm straight but your story tells me that no matter how bad things get you can still have hope by listening to a song lol. :) Hope all is well now hun

  • @deLOCOSHOW D: You got fired for being GAY? That's mean

  • @deLOCOSHOW That's horrible. I feel for you, man. I always felt that the ideas of some churches have gone awry.They're supposed to be accepting and provide a sanctuary for the lost. I hope you've gone through. A good song like this can really lift a person up

  • @deLOCOSHOW OH GOD. BEAUTIFUL (:

  • @deLOCOSHOW This song touched my life and changed it aswell. Thank you for being brave enough to share this with us... Love, light, and blessings... ~ Charlie

  • @deLOCOSHOW thats so sad. Thats not fair. but ur right. great song

  • @deLOCOSHOW Carlos I am soo sorry to hear that :( Any church, that really is a good place, woudl lov you and embrace you for your sexuality! If you ever need a friend, you can talk to me (:

  • @deLOCOSHOW Its great to hear that other people have simler experiences with Idina, I had a similiar experience and I honeslty dont know where Id be withought her songs on my ipod. Thanks so much Idina, I to owe u an awful lot

  • @deLOCOSHOW

    I am from the Netherlands and my english is not so good but i wanna try to tell you that I think it is not fair that you are fired from your church! Don´t forget that God loves you so much! You are so important for Him! Even when live is hard He loves you! And He is always there for you!

    Be blessed

  • @Annjustagirl Amen to that!

  • @deLOCOSHOW i have the same kinda story! i was done with everything..... the abuse the rape and the pregnancies...... i mwas going to finally end it and i had the radio on b4 i went through with it..... this song came on and i realized everything was going to be okay..... i love idina for this! if any one is reading this...... the world loves you so dont turn your back on it embrace it and keep running with ur life....... this saved me and i look at life as a beautiful gift waiting to be opened!

  • Best song ever i dont understand the people that dont like this song!!! GREAT JOB

  • @thegirlsteam i love her aswell do u no if if she wrote this??

  • @buzzurk1 "Brave was written by Idina Menzel and Glenn Ballard. Full song with lyrics!" >>

  • she was amazing in rent,i have the movie with idina menzel and i like the song take me or leave me

  • :**

  • Wow. <3

    Idina Menzel is my idol. Every time I hear her voice I instantly get goosebumps. Her voice is so pure and beautiful. I am obsessed with her and Wicked. It's my obsession.

    I love you Idina. <3

    -mallory (:*

  • @CarrieandTaylor4eva Same here!!! I <3 Idina!

  • @CarrieandTaylor4eva same here:))

  • @CarrieandTaylor4eva Thats me exactly. i adore her, i wish i could sing like her. she has such a powerful voice, it is so beautiful :)

  • omg i made my solo dance peice to THIS song it was awsome except i still dont know if my dance teacher is going to let me do it in the show!!!! xd

  • I think people focus more on Wicked because she didn't have a big singing part in RENT, and so we never really got to hear her AMAZING voice as much as we did in Wicked

  • @whateveryousay91

    You can if you get the OBC recording. Shes everywhere in it.

  • So wonderful. *_*

  • this songs is helping me get through a lost of my dog "LUCY." she passed away this morning at 2:35 in her sleep. After 12 wonderful years with me and my family, i will miss her very much. I know she was afraid to say good bye and at the same as BRAVE as ever. I will miss her very much. I love you Lucy!!

  • idina you are soo amazing! as a singer i look up to you soooo much!!!! you are truly blessed with so many gifts.

    God Bless
