This woman, i love her i wanna sing with her =), i heard this song and you singing Madam, and it went from newest song to most played in my itunes lib.
The fact that this is more than 10 years later from she performed it Orginally on Broadway and she still sounds the same and Looks the same is AMAZING!
I remember this concert and how electric the room was. The surprise at the end when Lillias White came out to sing "come down from the tree" dressed in a regal purple Caribbean dress and headwrap. Brava.
This Concert Performance was a benefit for Broadway Cares and also the families of the victims of September 11 one of which happened to be the first husband of La Chanze.
It was a magically moment in musical theater to say the least.
You see her on stage, belting her unbelievable voice out and think TI MOUNE, a peasant girl with big dreams of love, not La Chanze. She gets into character and believes it; not many people can do that that well, especially not in musicals. I WANT THAT VOICE!!!!!!!!!
Oh, man. I can't wait for this show. I'm doing this show for the summer, and (I'm a shoe in) but I really hope I get Ti moune. I sing this song all the time in the shower. My voice teacher says I have it down! LaChanze is AMAZING.
if you look, someone on here has all of them in parts. i know i got this from the broadway cares aids auction, but you're not missing too much becuase it's pretty much the whole show becuase OOTI didn't have a set.

Junior versions of this sucks. No african accent or anything. Lachanze sings it with Timoune's soul

It was a one-night-only special concert at the Winter Garden Theatre, where Mamma Mia! plays. They just happened to pick that theatre.
