  • Belle. The character's name describes you quite well.

  • i love this song and I wanted to listen to it, so I clicked on this video randomly and I was so moved by your performance. I don't even know you at all and just listening to you made me cry. You have a beautiful gift and passion for sincere acting and I just wanted to say GREAT JOB!

  • YOU ARE THE PERFECT BELLE! She is my favorite princess!

  • awe, this reminds me of when i played belle for my high school's version of beauty and the beast that same year in the fall, and this was my favorite song! but i didn't get to sing this version, we got the original one... u sang it beautifully :)

  • You are like the most perfect Belle ever. Amazing amazing amazing!!!

  • wow! you sound great!

  • wow u sound a lot like Anneliese Van Der Pol! you are fantastic!!!!

  • what song and monologue did you use for your audition? you are marvelous! :)

  • Could you upload any other songs you sang from this musical?

  • OMG absoutly wonderful. I absoutly love your voice..............

  • Brilliant!!! Now I really wish I could have Ursula's powers so I could steal your voice. *evil grin* Haha! :-p

  • This song is amazing, and you sing it wonderfully!

  • you were so good! at my school we're doing the jr. version and im belle :-). to bad this song isn't in there!

  • I'm singing this for my Musical Theatre solo project and I'm trying to find a costume.Can anyone tell me what she wears when she sings this one?

  • she wore the yellow dress. you know the big one thats kinda puffy and big.

  • i must have listened to this 20 times.

    i'm practising for my school audition next week. this is incredible! if i had half this talent i'd get belle :)

  • o... my... gosh!!!! AMAZING!!!!!

  • I watch this video over and over again, this song is so beautiful. And your voice is just so suited to it, perfect!

    xoxo

  • BRAVO!!!!!!!!! that was amazing! you have a gorgeous voice!

  • amazing <3 im tearing! bravo!

  • I'm actually trying out for this solo in my music showcase class... This video has helped me a lot with learning the notes (I can't read music)

  • beautiful, so is the yellow dress

  • AMAZING! this was the first musical i ever saw and i fell in love with it! U did and excellent job! I LOVE your voice ♥

  • ur the perfect belle :)

  • ooh! I love this! I also love the picture at 1:31!!! SO COOL! She sings so well!

  • You are truly amazing and so talented :)

  • This gave me goosebumps!!!! Absolutely amazing, especially at the end!!!! This is my dream play!! I would LOVE to play Belle in Beauty and the Beast someday.

  • i don't agree. i think ur belt is pretty good, but i don't think that this is the best version i've heard of this song...sorry. the only part that really blew me away was the end

  • I always seem to go back to this video when I hear other versions.

    This is the best version of this song. Period.

  • I am going to agree:

    AGREED.

  • you have the most awesomest belt i've heard in a while. :D

  • That made me cry, shame on you! It was very beautiful.

  • This is one of my favorite songs in broadway! When I was looking through your videos I was hoping that you had done this one! I can't believe you were a Belle!! Your perfect as her though! Loved it! :D

  • is tht u in the pictures

  • you're amazing! i love this:)

  • omg! you are so darn good.

    i keep trying to find sheet music in this key.

    is there any chance you have it?

  • one of my dream roles! you sing amazingly!

  • This is beautiful. Like, just amazing. I got such big chills when you started belting. Fantastic job!

  • you can sure belt. so sick

  • FAB.

    where was this performance, school or off-broadway or other?

  • OMG this is absoutly wonderful. I could listen to this all day that is how amazing it is!!!!!!!!

  • Love it! For me this is my favorite BaTB song. I actually don't like "Home" that much, but if sung by a person who grasps the emotional connection within the song, I enjoy it. But A Change in Me is the one song that shows Belle as a really strong character who is finding herself. And of course, you sang it beautifully, great job :)

  • you don't like "Home"? how come? Home is a beautiful song that shows Belle is not going to give up on her heart's desires. and i was personally in a production of beauty and the beast where the person playing the role of Belle sang it in the most emotional way possible. i know for a fact she gave everyone chills. but "Home" is a great song!

  • I like Home, if sung by a really good singer. Some of the productions I've seen Home wasn't the strongest point of singing for the person who played Belle. I like Home don't get me wrong, but it's just one of those songs that needs to be good to fully love it.

  • I think that you have one of the most beautiful voices in the world!

    You gave me goosebumps!

    Bravo!

  • You are my role model! Well, I should introduce myself. My name is Melanie, and I am eleven. The first time I saw one of your videos it gave my the chills! You are amazing! And if you could contact me in any way, I would be astonished! I am new to having an account on youtube, so I don't know if you can add people as friends, but if you can please please please add me! You are (again) my role model! You are the greatest, Natalie!

    -Melanie (Your biggest fan)

  • holy shit. this was amazing. the first time i heard this was on Broadway with Ashley Brown (the reason the ending has that belt) and you absolutely nailed it. All of your videos are great! Congrats! Good luck at CCM, because you could definitely get in. Ha ha

  • That girl can blow!!! Oustanding!!!!!

  • Anyone know where to get the karaoke version of this song (with the big finish)?

  • unreal! youll go far :)

    great song, sang it for an audition :D and got in :)

    x

  • Stunning, I had goosebumps from beginning to the last note.

  • I love this Broadway show

  • what theater is this at?

  • Omg, sooo amazing!

  • you have a beautiful voice!

  • wow- I'm usually VERY critical of actresses singing this song (it's one of my favorites in the musical theatre world)... But you honestly did a really beautiful job with it. : )

    All the best!

    -Liv

  • this is really good. my high school's cast will always be my favorite but this was awesome

  • awesome great!!! <3 was this on broadway?

  • Wow goosebumps! Great job!

  • Though I do think it is a little too fast, I can't believe they would give this role to Annelise over you! Seriously, the best version on Youtube by far. Congratulations. You'll be big.

  • the one where you sang at your school is better. It's slower. This was too fast, the song isnt sang that fast in the play. Your voice sounded much better in this one tho... it was just too fast.

  • I dont think she cares what you think lol

  • This is really good, all the BaTB shows I've seen at community theatre or high school productions never had belle belt it out this much, so it at first surprised me. You sang it really well though!

  • this is amazing!!! i just auditioned for beauty and the beast at a community college and i auditioned for chip and on thursday im getting a call which is the directors decision and im praying that ill make it

  • are those crickets i hear o_0 or am i just half way into a sugar trip?

    great voice by the way ^ ^ i'd love to see you on stage. you are really talented.

  • We did this show a few months ago (I was Cogsworth) and this was one of my favourite songs in the musical. Such a powerful moment of realization and change.

    You sang this song beautifully. There really isn't anything like doing Beauty and the Beast yes? Such a great show :)

  • amazing

  • For tho's of you who think this song is odd just to let you know this is the 11 o'clock song. it's near the end and it shows that the story is coming to an end. personally when the girl who sang this for our production sang this i cried everytime. it's a very touching song

  • omg!

    your PHENOMENAL!

    ur my hero!

    thats just remarkable!

    i ope i sing just like u when im 17!!!!!!!!!!!!

    (im 11!)

  • We did this show... Haha. but this song doesn't fit in with the show.. No offense.. But I love you.. And I was Monsieur D'Arque :P

    So whenever I hear this song, I think "Ohhh man I make my entrance right after..."

  • It's actually funny that you say that. Many people have the same opinion of this song, but I think that Belle's character would be flat without it. In fact, I think it's absolutely crucial for her character to really grow and seem...realistic. Then again, it's just an opinion ;o)

  • Hahahahaha Hey.. I didn't say I didn't like it.. But it was added for Toni Braxton I think.. So... It's kinda like pop rather than musical/Disney... Hahaha.. But hey.. I still love you! So it's all good! xD

  • actually, i like this song. I think it fits very well with the show. why wouldn't it fit? it shows belle's growth from a bit of a naive dreamer to a wiser, more realistic person. My school is doing this next year and i hope i get to sing this part... i;m super excited!

  • I saw another one of your videos and could've sworn you'd make a great Belle. Go figure :)

  • this is amazing! but i have a question- is this the original key? i've listened to a few versions, including the susan egan version, and it seems like those versions are lower.

  • was this at french woods?

    is lafou sam levy?

    anyways, my show of beauty and the beast opens tonight.

    i play lumiere.

  • oh man, when I want to hear some amazing singing....I just come back to this video over and over. Beautiful and so powerful!

  • hey natalie! this version rocks!!! did u actually grow the last note in 2 octaves or what?

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Ah, beautiful.

    My favorite play and you such so well with it too. =3

  • you look like Amy Grant! Compliment. Gorgeous voice. Hope you're in NYC by now.

  • Wow, it started out pretty rocky but you really recovered by the end! The end was great!

  • Amazing!!!! :):)

    i responded with my video of it, not as goodd but have a look :P x

  • You should feel so amazingly blessed considering pretty much every one of the thousands of comments on all your videos are telling you to pack your backs and leave for Broadway. Teehee. We all love you.... The most perfect Belle anyone will ever see in their lives... Congrats! (=

  • Wow! You were amazing! You have such an incredible voice! I am actually going to be in Beauty and the Beast this summer at my local art center. I am looking forward to be being apart in it! Thanks for sharing your talent! :)

  • your set and costumes were amazing!

    and of course you were too!

    it sounds like you guys had an orchestra, am i right?

  • Oh my goodness! Your voice is absolutely amazing!!! I mean wow, speechless

  • oh my wow... that was absolutely incredible... BLOWN AWAY... wow

  • Your voice sounds as precious as judy garland in this song. You both have the same sort of tone here.

  • This is absolutely fantasitc. You are a perfect Belle and I have now watched every one of your videos and love every single one!

  • my gosh, you're bringing tears to my eyes. STOP IT! :')

  • wow you're like the perfect belle! :)

  • This is amazing! You truly have an incredible talent. I've seen this performed professionally several times and I can honestly say you rank right up there with the pros. I'm a voice major at the University of Memphis and I'd appreciate your comments on some of my videos if you have time :) I've acted with musical theatre since I was about ten, but I'm doing to school now for Opera....great job again! :)

  • you should go on american idol, you would win!! We love you!!

  • ahhh gees phenomonal (sp?)

  • Do mine eyes deceive me, or does the description say "at 17"? Only seventeen? Wow....I'm completely blown away by this performance. You know how when you hear the original Broadway cast of a show singing something and you know that nothing else will compare? That's how this is for me. : )

  • BEAUTIFUL !

  • you are just the perfect belle sweetheart!

  • i love it i am going down the path like you and you are a inspiration !!!

  • avid actress you're soooo talented..we love you...

  • i watched your old video a long time ago and loved it. this version is even better!

  • wow! that was great

    and you looked absolutely beautiful ;) hahah

  • You remind me a lot of Ashley Brown, who might I add is my favorite Belle!

  • You're a young Stephanie J. Block!!

    I'm very excited about your voice!!

    Try to sing "Woman" from "The pirate Queen"

  • You're very talented!!! Can I ask what company did the show? :)

  • Starstruck. It's a children's theatre company in California.

  • omg that so cool that you got to be a part of a performance like that!

    Great job!:)

  • My theatre downtown is doing this show as one of their six this summer and I'm hoping and praying that this girl Bailey will get Belle because she deserves it SOOOOOOOO much, and even though I'm so biased that she's the best in the world I'll admit you're waaaaay better than she is at Belle. OMK THAT WAS AMAZING!

  • You were crying at the beginning of this? Dear lord, I hate you!

    This is like, better than Ashley Brown. Totally serious.

    LOVE THIS.

  • I love it!!! Your voice is amazing nd I especially love this video because Beauty And The Beast was my first theatre experience!

  • wow! That was awesome! You are such a perfect Belle!

    We're doing Beauty and the Beast at our school this year ^^ I really hope we do Phantom of the Opera next year so I can audition for Christine!

    ~Hannah

  • AMAZING!

    you make a fantastic Belle!

    this part is made for you :)

  • Beautfil! 5 stars!

  • I love when people ask if something is "PROFESSIONAL." Are you meaning are they acting professional or like many silly union fairys-are you asking if it's equity? Either way it's great and just so you and all your novice friends will know-that little card does not give you magical powers of Musical Theater! I'm sure Julie Andrew & Audra McDonald weren't half bad without it. I've have never heard it sung better! GO NATALIE!!!

  • that is weird...I saw your JRB Contest submission and thought

    that you were the Beauty from Beauty and the Beast that I watched as a kid come to life!

    You LOOK JUST LIKE the character....

  • I would like to work with she... in a musical!!! I love his voice!!!

  • Was this professional or? :)

    Either way, how long did it run?

    I know these are random questions

  • Oh my gosh I love this song!!!

  • Absolutely beautiful

  • your voice is literally perfect for beauty and the beast!!!!!!

  • thats great. love it

  • You could be a great Elphaba in Wicked Too :D

  • She´s good singer, good soprano for Belle, I think you should practice the Passagio and narrative style for a better interpretation, the orchetra: the strings are a little bit out of tune, specially the Cello... just little bit!

    but definitely you have a great voice, generally a great Job. Congratulations

  • wow.

    Seriously.

    When I first saw you, I was like.. " wow... she reminds me of Belle"

    And then I saw this... and wow.

    I can't help it.

    You are spectacular.

  • wow!

  • Awesome

  • Amazing. Better than any actress I have heard sing it on Broadway!

  • WOW you can play any part. Perfect for Belle. Better than Broadway.

  • You were tailor made for this role. You sound like one of the Broadway Belle's! You're extremely pretty as well. Keep rocking.

  • was this a high school play? summer program? what?

  • oh God, THANK YOU 4 POSTING THIS!

  • were u on brodway?
