I know I ragged on you for "Be A Man" and "No Good Deed" being technically brilliant but lacking in feeling. I'm pleased to say, I don't get that at all here. :)
You really sounded like a male Elphaba, voice full of defiance and freedom. Of course this is my favorite song, not just in Wicked but from any musical ever, so I'm especially glad this was the one you nailed, both technically and emotionally.
@Taopuppy A baritone could just sing this at original pitch but an octave down, making the top note an F, which is almost at the top of a typical baritone range. Changing the pitch up a few notes can make it better suited - this should be in no way easy.
ok I said you were great singing Don't rain on my parade, but this totally the best version of Defying Gravity sung by a guy i've ever heard... it's unbelievable... Just keep working and you'lle be the best ..
is it possible to get a copy of this backing track.. as i need it for a performance at school. and all i can seem to find is the version that still has glinda's part in it
please tell me you're planning on doing something with that voice! i would kill for a duet with you for my senoir recital :) The arragnment is sweet, i always like the "bouncy" version of this song. Overall amazing :)
haha did they change the lyrics because i saw it last september and they werent the same lyrics around the middle or did you just get mixed up with "The Wizard and I" ?
wow...you knocked that one outta the park! I thought since it was a lower pitch it wouldn't be as good, but it was just as good as the original version in my eyes! well done!
you did have great inflection, but i have to agree that if you annunciated some of your words a little more, you would take this from good to superb! just a thought though...the riffs were amazing and I have to also say that the Julia throwback on the second 'bring me down' was nice to hear again...keep it up!!!
please put an instrumental up for this, it would please me greatly to sing this in this key. I also am looking for an instrumental to use for my school's Broadway Night Cabaret, so if you could put an instrumental up for this it would make me very happy, because this key is much more suited to my voice than all the other ones.
I really liked this. Great voice, I'm not gonna pick up on every mistake and make out i'm dome sort of musical prodigy like most people do on these videos. I really liked it. You're also rather gorgeous ;) x
I really liked it! If you don't mind, I'd like to offer just a bit of constructive criticism
First off, your pitch control and breathing is great, and it sounds awesome. You COULD use a little bit crisper diction, though. There are some parts where a few harder consonant sounds (ie: on graviTy) might do you some good.
The Eden riffs on "tell them how I..." and "I'm flying high, deFYing gravity" were pulled off well. And I LOVED the Julia throwback for the second bring me down.
Much better than those broadway boys! Great job! Your the only male on you tube that's got this song correct !

First off, your pitch control and breathing is great, and it sounds awesome. You COULD use a little bit crisper diction, though. There are some parts where a few harder consonant sounds (ie: on graviTy) might do you some good.
The Eden riffs on "tell them how I..." and "I'm flying high, deFYing gravity" were pulled off well. And I LOVED the Julia throwback for the second bring me down.
