Elyssa idk if u remember, its javier from into the woods and I just wanted to say this pooped up on my channel and i LOVE THIS great job I miss u!!!

[BroadwayAddams]

 you have a great voice!! I think you should more pop covers. You the PERFECT voice for it. My only suggestion for this song is to make the words flow together more. You are fantastic!

[thatduffgirl]

You have terrific natural talent and a very likable stage presence. I love to see videos like these on Youtube. Shows that not everyone is plastic and fake.

Bottom line. You have real, honest natural talent. You have serious potential. You need voice lessons to help you with your belt placement if you want go anywhere.

If professional theatre is your goal, work hard. Study the craft and get involved locally wherever you can. You DEFINITELY have IT. But you've got to work crazy hard.

:)

@clumsy0ninja

AHAHAHAHA that may very well have been one of my younger brothers being annoying in the background! =]

[br0adwaybabi03]

im studying theatre and the only thing i have to say is that you have almost great support just work on it because it willll help you too not be so flat on those high belt notes and take more frequent breathsss in the beginning becuase at 1 part in particular you lose it a little otherwise its a great cover and you shuld really have somee vocal training because with that voice naturally wooooo youd blow every1 off the stage with training U GO GIRL!!! great job

[MusicalFreakSean]

you are AMAZING!!!

[rockland09]

the higher belt notes have a lot of tension in them... your face shows a lot of tension to hit them which translates into the sound. trying relaxing about a bit or switch into your head voice.

[flinginflamez]

great cover of a great show, i love the acting too, keep it up!

[malpal1395]

[XJosefaX]

heyy.. love ur voice.. can u tell pls where i can get the backing track pls !!

xx

[Miyroko2]

ohhh.

btw, do you know of any place I could get a back track of just Vanessa's main parts?

(the part you did)

I don't know how I would segway from the beginning verse to the ending one on stagge though.

ugghhh.

anyway, if anyone can think of anything I would be grateful.

;]

[Miyroko2]

wow,hun you are talented.

:]]]

when you start to belt it doesn't sound as good as it could, but after a few seconds it sounds fine.

I sometimes have that problem.

You and that voice could go faarrrr.

Good work.

[musicalme4]

I love your hair!

[legallybrunette58]

you're great!!

[oatssosimple13]

your voice is lovely when you hold back, producing a lovely quality. I think you need to concentrate on improving your belt at the top of your register, and watch not to shout notes out. VERY good job though :)

[sopranosinger123]

That was so awesome!

[reggieMTlover609]

You better work!!!

Great job!!

Keep it up!

[renthead1212]

[brittay00]

[uptherailingstep]

Wow, sassy!

You have amazing flexibility with your voice, and that, coupled with nice acting makes for a great performance.

Fierce!

[Wicked8DefyGravity]

WOW that was amazing! Can't wait to see you on Broadway :)

[KingReMO2]

Lovin' it! Keep at it. I love seeing more In The Heights on YouTube.
