  • she shits on aguilera

  • The song always makes me cry!

  • Who wouldn't like this?

  • my favortie singer ever

  • Better than Cristina Aguillera's version.

  • she's pretty and has a wonderful voice and a funny personality ♥ what else can you ask for? ♥

  • Jodi Benson and Lea Salonga are two of Disney's most talented singers. You always feel the emotion they put in the songs, and that is the most difficult thing that any singer can achieve, and they do it effortlessly.

  • Lea sings so effortless unlike other singers who moves a lot especially when going for the high notes.

  • her version is way better than christina's ;D

  • goosebumps from start to end...i even restrained myself to give her a standing ovation...bravo,lea....

  • She should record this version <3

  • All the dislikes don't know their own reflection :o

  • I really really love ms.Leah. You're my all-time favorite. God bless you and your family.

  • she is lea salonga... she have different aura and characteristic... and she will be my favorite singer ever...

  • @quististrape I felt like that 'til I heard Hayley Westenra

  • I really like the full version of the song, they should of put this in the movie.

  • her voice is so beautiful and angelic that it makes me cry :')

    i love her and brad kane's duet.

  • for me lea is the best and nothing will get her thrown for all times...educated ......and not making birit like the other singer ...si lea each word and lines of the lyrics madidinig mo and to think na di kinakain ang words...yung iba super birit na d like s of regine..iniiba ang words just to get the notes...which is definitely wrong!!!go go go lea.....brava!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @mahnahmahnahbaby

    First off, this song was WRITTEN FOR LEA SALONGA by writers at disney when they made Mulan.

    Secondly, although I respect Christina Aguilera's music, she sang a modified version of this song in two and a half steps down from the actual register that the song was originally in.

    Lastly, I divide by Zero, therefore your argument is invalid. ^_^

  • @SaintHaHaLOLZ Do you mean that just because the song was written for Lea Salonga means that she does it better?! Also Chistinas modified version is like a whole different song. If that's the case then it sounds like all Christinas songs are covers that are modified.. ur argument against mine is invalid.. And I said Lea Salonga sing well just not that impressive.

    Ur last argument does not really work out m8.. A good try but i'm sorry ^^

  • Well, sorta...

    But my argument is better, since I divided by zero, therefore rendering your argument invalid, sorry xD

    But... what I really wanted to say was that... Lea's version is better, as the performance was better overall. That, and the fact that she adds her knowledge of the meaning to it. But to each their own?

  • @SaintHaHaLOLZ I sort of figured out that u thought Lea's version is better^^ But my comment was more like a statement and not an argument but ofcourse everyone has different music-taste so your not wrong to think Lea is better. It's just that I think it's weird because in my point of view Christina is sorry but much better =) Then again it's up to everyone to think what they want ofcourse.

  • beautiful song, beautifully sung. Lea brought a new level of class to Broadway.

  • Proud to be a Filpino

  • n00b! (j/k) Jasmine is the love intrest in Aladdin.

  • @xazngiirlx they're from disney movies...

  • wow.

  • It's "they want a docile lamb"

  • 1:46....lyrics? "they wanted us so loud"? that doesn't make sense tho........

  • I love her voice.

  • Jia don't know how to appreciate talent! I'm Proud to be A Filipino! Why envy? and jealous of others talent? Jia213 and the people posting theior comment here is just telling d truth.

  • Mulan AND Jasmine is correct.

  • singing voice of mulan and jasmine right?

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • whoa, did she play mulan????

  • yup

  • nope. she's the "singing voice" of Mulan

  • Lea has a soothing voice. I love her (and Charice) :D

  • lea has a voice of perfection. the fact that this wasnt a professional cameraman and it was live plus it sounded perfect is amazing!

  • Lea was awesome! See my video i took of her singing at a fundraiser in Universal City, Ca.

  • totally AMAZING!!!

  • she's awesome!!!

  • One of the most awesome Filipino singers

  • one of the best singers period

  • Lea Salonga, we love you! :)

  • ohhhhhhhh i love her music and her voice she is so classy

    wow from cebu to her

  • awesome! lea is sooooooooo great! she really puts her emotion into the song and i am sure that she really practised and practised until she sounded so good! FILIPINO!!!

    i wish to be like her.... i am proud to be a filipino just like lea salonga!!!

  • Since when did they say Filipino are the only race gd for singing? Why don't you look at yourself in the mirror? A racist who discriminate people from 3rd world countries or smth? Disgusted. Learn how to respect others rather than giving shitty comments like this.

    I'm not from philippine btw. You are a shame, seriously.

    OH BTW, i see no wrong to take pride in their country and citizen. If you don't take pride in yours, there's something wrong about you in fact. Go think about it, juvenile one.

  • nice break from heairing all those "birit". although i love them too, charice, regine, lani, etc. but i like lea's voice during my downtime. nice, soothing, relaxing and all those other synonymous adjectives...

  • superb!

  • absolutely fantastic!

  • Wow! What a voice! Bootiful! Natural and definitely classy!

  • Beautiful....T_T..

  • I love lea's voice. Great

  • i love that lea becomes the character, she brings out so much emotion. love her broadway performance. wish i could watch her live.

  • awesome...... lea salonga will always be the best filipina singer ever

    i dont think you cant never compare her to regine nor charice no way!

  • @bubuyog143 she is what she is at her own title. as theirs too...

    it´s incomparable as they have their unique aura of singing and typically different at their genres....

    =)

  • @bubuyog143 ang boses ni lea ay natural na natural. hindi trying hard pakinggan tulad ni regine at charice. pati accent ni regine pekeng peke at trying hard.

  • lea salonga She very great

  • very crystal clear! amazing lea

  • Classy.. is the word.

  • she iz bomb i love this song

  • She is so AMAZING... The way she sung this song is so dramatic and I really felt it... I love Lea Salonga and also Charice and Regine Velasquez they are very very briliant singers...

  • i know!!!

    she puts soooooooo MUCH EMOTION into it!

  • yay nice song!!!

  • man, i was so sick of this song,

    and i think she just made me like it again x]

  • what's a Song !

    Great ! great ! great !

    Ohhh Lea Sound si bright !!

  • lea!!!

  • Lea

    you so good!!

    no no

    very great!!!

    amazing voice,,

    go Lea!!

  • Of all the filipino singer LEA SALONGA is the BEST for me!!!!!!! she really have a nice voice!!!! GO LEA!!!!!

  • how come theres no live performances of jodi benson on youtube

  • nice!!!!!!! song........

  • she is really good,, actually here in norway ko p napanood ung LES MISERABLES nya kc fave nung anak ng boss ko and he always listen to on my own version ni lea...and he was really surprise nung tell ko n pinay cya he ehhee tlgang napanganga..

  • hm... no offence but i tink she sang better than Christina but cristina is also AWESOME!

  • totally agree. I think the original version is a bit better though.

    Both are great though!!! ^^

  • I didn't really like how Christina Aguilera sang this song, but when I heard the lyrics I knew she didn't write it and searched on youtube for a better version. And here it is! She's amazing!

  • Of all the Disney singers, Lea has the sweetest voice. Of course she's much older here so it isn't like before but in her prime nobody and I a mean nobody could touch Lea. The only other person who really impressed me among the other Disney singers was Jodi Benson in the Little Mermaid. She too has a wonderful voice. Lea and Jodi are my all time favorite Disney singers.

  • agreed!!! Lea and Jodi were the best

  • @uberathlete True that!!

    They are irreplaceable!! Lea and Jodie are amazing, its makes me sad to remember how good music and movies were back then. Also my childhood :'(

  • @uberathlete agree!! i luv both of them too ;))

  • definately the best version she is amazing

    woot pinoy pride!

  • I love her! There are not too many singers out there with such a powerful and pretty voice.

  • Sooo much better than Christina Aguilera!

  • Yes - Frankly it angers me tremendously when Disney DISRESPECTS their original singers and "POPS" it up with inferior vocalists. Bringing Christina Agulara in on this song was embarrassing b/c Salonga trumped her on this by leaps and bounds.

  • yes

    reflection makes christina famous but she seldom performed this live

    i simply can find two lives she sings reflection

  • yes you got that right!!!! :)

  • different way of singing~

    lea is doing better in musical and master of vocal power comes from DanTian (hypogastrium)than Christina

    lea is very professional not a pop star way to express the song

    singing in opera

    Christina uses throat a lot

  • after so long, her voice is still fricken amazing :))

  • Her voice is beautiful! Better than christina Agulaira, but i think i still prefer Coco lee. But her voice is great either way!. :D

  • I love it when foreigners says WOW and ohhhh and ahhhhs after they pick up thier jaws listening to our Filipina International singers, singing in English.

  • she's awesome

  • wow!!! she has a gorgeous voice. i think she did way better then Christina!!! lea is the original singer she does so wonderful on it!!!

  • i love it, but do it some justice and sync up the audio with the vid.

  • This version is better than Christina Aguilera's.

  • hehe.. it was lea who sung this originally

  • I always love her. I used to have tapes from her old songs.. YEAH TAPES.. CDS doesn't exist during that time. hehe

  • tama bang icompare si lea kay charice? tsk.. tsk..

  • korek ka diyan?...

  • get ur facts straight ha. Lea has sang for the the queen of England, countless presidents,etc, so please lang ayusin mo comment mo. I am proud of Charice, pero malayo na narating ni Lea Salonga para icompare mo pa sya kay Charice ng ganyan.

  • naka-international rin naman siya

  • Her voice has already become bigger. No longer the little girly voice. Lea's voice will last more than the other screaming divas because she is actually singing, not doing those screaming notes until u burst ur vocal chords! I love her voice!

  • lea is the best singer ever!!! i love her voice =]

  • love lea, but....

    what on earth is she wearing?

  • So great... I got to see her live in concert, and it was amazing. I love the extra verse that isn't in the final disney version... anyone know where you can get a good version of the full version of the song? I can't find it anywhere...

  • she's amazing..i watched lately her performancea as Eponine in Les Miserables..Sh sang On mY Own really well. I think i knew already what musical singers do have that any other artistshave. It's the emotions and passion. Purely! Nothing more, nothing less.

  • man shes so awesome i reckon this version is wayyy better than celine dion

  • get your facts right. Celine didnt sing Reflections. it was Christina Aguilera

  • oops this was supposed to be a reply to

    shadow0mega

  • oh yeah... haha my bad xD aye man they both started with C so yeah, plus she did actually sing reflection but it wasnt put on mulan, i was just saying lea salonga's better xP

  • christina aguilera, and yes it is... lol...

  • she is amazing and such a great voice !

  • AAWESOME GIRL!!! SHE'S SO PERFECT!!!

  • Lea Salonga has such a beautiful clear voice I'm so glad I lived to hear! : )

  • Shes Filipino? Wow I Thought She Was Chinese

  • ignorant assumption

  • an envious entity pls ignore this... whatever being...

  • The only actress who had won an Oscar award from Philippines!!!!!Im proud of her!!!!

  • She didn't win the Oscar for that Aladddin song. The writers of the song did.

  • She is absolutely amazing!

  • good job!

  • 4 a second i thought she was Chinese or something lol. anyway, she's a really great singer!

  • She is filipino

  • Does Lea Salonga also do the speaking voices for Jasmine and Mulan?

  • no...I know Ming-Na does mulan's speaking voice.

  • Oh ok thanks :)

  • No, but she does provide jasmine's singing voice

  • I knew that. But thanks :)

  • She only does the singing voice of both mulan and jasmine. shes awesome

  • Ok thank you :)

    Yes she is awesome :)

  • where and when was this?

  • She's Filipino; she's not lip synching - that's the bad coordination between the audio and video.

  • she's not lip synching..!!

  • Filipinos are just amazing<3

  • 'coz she's on broadway... and only english songs make it to broadway!!! duh?! she does sing tagalog songs... in some of her concerts...

  • coz when shes on BROADWAY if she sang filipino songs,no one can understand her!!!!

  • she does the singing voice for prince jasmine and mulan.

  • is she american?

  • filipina

  • why has someone -1 me for asking what nationality she is?? it was a genuine question as i didnt know!!

    try saving those for people who give insults!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • ha ha i cant believe people are still -1 me for not knowing knowing what nationality she is!! there are clearly some lea fanatics on this page who have nothing else to do.

  • i love her voice!!

  • Lea is just... amazing. She's my hero. I hope someday I could sing like her... I always seem to sing songs she's sung in shows lol... like "Reflection" and "On My Own"...

  • I love it!

  • oh really???!!!! lea's voice is so soft,very natural and sings from the heart! cristina's voice is sometimes realy trying hard! she sings like she's always in the competition! or in the singing contest! plus! she's a slut!

  • christina isn't a slut i hate how if people are criticizing someones vocal ability it gets personal and i know that technically lea is much better than christina but christina has a strong voice and shows it off both versions are nice in thier own ways

  • u know people were born to critizize! we cant help it! i liked cristina before when she was still simple and sweet. but now she acting like the biggest slut in town!! anyway, all the people here in you tube are all critics my dear! get used to it! we are enjoying to critize! dont be such a kill joy! hehe!! (peace!)

  • are you a moron?

  • No, she wasn't Ariel. She was, although, the singing voice of Jasmine in Aladdin alongside Brad Kane who was the singing voice of Aladdin. I simply adore her! Miss Saigon is my fav...

  • Great voice. Actually in The Little Mermaid Jodi Benson was the voice for Ariel but maybe if you are referring to Part of Your World it does sound but I don't think so.

  • she was young when she sang in the movie..here she was already an adult..

  • I'm afraid you're mistaken.  she was Ariel in the Little Mermaid like 7 years earlier (estimating here). she was an adult then too. She's probably in her late 30s.

  • she sang it in the movie didnt she?

  • umm no, it was her in the movie, however christina did sing it for her album

  • Christina Aguilera's version was the marketable, music video version. Lea Salonga actually provided Mulan's singing voice for the movie.

  • Yes, Christina did the Pop version, and it was christinas version that was used to promote the song on the popular circut with christina's video

  • I love her voice and the song..Perfect

  • I like her voice so much..I hope I have a voice like hers.

  • there is only one reason why she sounds normal (other than the recording quality)and that is that she has set the standards for all great voices all around the world

  • bravo!
