dont have to put so much vibrato to make your note last and stay on pitch :) try not to force it so loud... and its sooo like the movie!!! make it your own!!! your interpretation!!! but you have a great voice!
@captainsqueaky Thanks for the comment, I'm sure she'll appreciate the compliment if she reads this, but just to clarify.. vibrato is a vocal inflection that happens naturally. It doesn't have any effect on the length of sound and often times it's a bad vibrato that makes a person sound out of tune.. But I'll agree that she has a great voice.. gave me goosebumps every night sitting back stage!
@fiddledidi lol.. ya know, I've often wondered how the view count got so high on all my grease videos.. the highest viewed video has 86,000+ views already... and btw, I agree, I love her voice!
The only thing is, there's a shift when she realizes that "she could hurt someone like her". Meaning that Rizzo did end up hurting Sandy out of spite/jealousy. I think thats such an intense moment to look at Sandy to make the connection and then sing back to the audience out of shame to look at her.
Don't see any negative comments you might be referring to but anyone who left one is an idiot and should be ignored. Stockard Channing would be proud.
I absolutely love your voice. It is so rich and strong. In fact I practiced along with your version to prepare me to do it at karaoke. Of course I didn't do it as well as you but I still got very good remarks. Keep up the singing girl!
Thanks. Coming from you that is such a compliment. I think we had such a talented cast. It was the most fun I had had in a long time. I hope all is well w/ you and your fabulous pipes!
Kudos to this performer for not "giving it all away" in the first verse. This song is one of the few emotionally deep songs in this show. Its often just "yelled" the entire way through. I always tell my students, "you've sang this same melodic line 3 times...I'm bored. Entertain me!" This Rizzo did that. Brava!
That sax part is the only reason why this song has the color that it has...but the only thing that needs to be different is is the feel of the first few notes. It sounded like the person playing it was just reading the music and not playing it with emotion.
dynamite voice, dynamite performer... i blame the blocking for the lack of energy in this. she could be moving around the stage more, using her space... which i'm sure isn't her fault, it's probably the directors. looking at the other videos from this production, they seem to have the same problem.
I do professional musical theater and she solidly, vocally kicks the butt of many a rizzo's I have seen perform.
This song is supposed to be a reflective, open moment for Rizzo. Rizzo does a lot of running around in "Look at me I'm Sandra Dee" so I can see why the director would choose to have less movement. This is not to say there couldn't have been a bit more movement though.
You don't even get to see any of her acting in this clip. Unless you were there in the actual theater seat...don't assume anything. And if you did actually see it...then you're entitled to your own oppinion.
yeah as a response to this... I loved it cuz every night, she'd get so into her character that when she'd finish this scene she'd come back stage and actually be crying...
Hi to everyone. Does someone have the Grease libretto I've been looking for it since a long time but I can't find it. Please if someone have it send it to my mail. cesarmusic88 at hotmail Thanks a lot.
awesome voice...but soooo boring....come on...you have to sell it!! we need to feel rizzo's pain...she's so vulnerable in this scene...i should know...i was rizzo in my school's musical a couple months ago!
Old? You do realise the orginal actress was nearly in her mid thirties right? It really doesn't matter to be honest as long as she doesn't go overboard, say 45.
lets just say no one beats the orignal rizzo from the movie. coz shes my favourite i have seen the musical at the liverpool empire couple of years ago and that was my favourite rizzo. once i like the first person i hear i like the others but there not as good.
THANK YOU!! i thought it was supposed to a song being DIRECTED to sandy... but that yell thing it's supposed to make me feel for rizzo rite... i felt nothin
same ehre. The preformance, was good, regarding her voice and all, but it just leaves a lot of people feeling... uhh Hollow. (haha that's the only word i could think of)
OMG i thought i was the only one who realized that!! it was borin i got nothin from her then she runs offstage... i THOUGHT sandy was supposed to go off cryin to her crib to do the reprise
Every director wants something DIFFERENT...they did what they were "supposed to do". *shakes head* Everyone just assumes that they are allowed to follow the script just right...as an actor or actress you have to do as directed...and you can only get so much from directors who don't really have a vision...meaning less quality to the musical's and play's they are in charge of. Generally...everyone really did the best they could do in such a situation.
her voice is really good, i just don't see the acting. she needs to move around the stage more. i was waiting for her left had to leave her hip for sucha long time.
If it were me and I was doing that song ... I would sing to the audicene hence her looking into "space" as you put it ... and she's really not singing to anyone she's really singing to herself trying to make herself belive what she is saying.
The idea is that she isn't communicating with the audience...she's "living her life" and although she could have looked at the chick more...she did as good a job as she was allowed by the directors...and if you were getting sad and dreamy....would YOU look out and try to make eye contact with people who aren't there? lol.
amazing voice o.o I stumbled across this and once i listen, i cant stop myself from relistening. Its so addicting and I'm in love with the color of her voice. Wonderful :) Very fitting for Rizzo- indeed
i played rizzo for a musical too. she's an excellent character to play. she has actual depth. :)
wonderful voice!

Floored floored floored by the singing.
