[yazzie464ever]

@etak161 no shit Sherlock it is not like it is!

[chhoco0211]

@etak161 actually she is in the show

[KandDdivas]

@etak161 She is

[goingGAGA1]

@etak161 oh my freaking god. i sure hope you're kidding. matter of fact, everyone hopes you're kidding

[babyjake4ever]

@etak161 She's also the wicked witch in Wicked

[OptimusPrime5OOO]

That was the most intiment break up i've ever seen

[XdisXesXwhyXimXhawtX]

I would kill to sing like idina

[IsCoolSilke]

I love the dark lady :)

[muzafar001]

When will the make a WICKED musical movie? Would love to see Idina and Kristin together in it! Universal Pictures, come on already!!!!

[poptartdom]

@muzafar001 i've been waiting for that for f'ing YEARS man

[muzafar001]

@poptartdom Interesting fact, when the producers pitched the Wicked Book by Gregory McGuire to Universal Studios, it was originally pitched as a movie but it was decided, a Musical is better at the time. Which is, as we have enjoyed for the past 8 years, a success.

[Stargeek2006]

If I ever get in a fight with any future boyfriend, I will start to sing this.

And if he knows what's good for him, he'll sing back. Things will just end better.

[zack1693]

its funny the entire room leaves with them and wants to see if she undresses

[MrCupcakeboy123]

was she a lesbo in this movie ?!?!



[Stargeek2006]

@MrCupcakeboy123 No shit.

[epacmo1807]

@Stargeek2006 Lmao XD

[SaintHaHaLOLZ]

@MrCupcakeboy123

Actually no, she was Bisexual. Lesbo, by the way, is a derogatory term so don't use it.

[MrCupcakeboy123]

@SaintHaHaLOLZ Oh, thanks, and I didn't know about it so I wwont use it :D

[TBDfilmpjes]

Love how she plays Rachel's mom!

[Grimly59]

Glee, learn to sing from Indina Menzel.

[beverlybradley210]

This video is a favorite on Maldives

[WannaWearYourSkin]

This is like.. the best. duet. ever.

[gettie246]

Love this song.... I'm never tired of their romance!!!!

[iamcannibal18]

OhMyGod, Idina is so amazing <3

[HappyWeirdo3]

in my opinion, the best TMOLM there is. hands down.

[mellyrox2000]

Mimi enjoyed this WAY to much.



[iyo8]

How do they film this?

[TheKarem100]

4 homophobics don't liked =P

[PrimaDonna130]

Idina Menzel should release a solo album!

[fReaKmEhNe]

@PrimaDonna130 Well, actually she has already released 3 solo albums ;)

[PrimaDonna130]

@fReaKmEhNe Oh, thanks, I'll have to look for them :))

[PrimaDonna130]

Is it weird that I've not even seen the musical and yet I am OBSESSED with this song?

[TheKarem100]

@PrimaDonna130 I think you and i are the same =P

[JessicaRobbo101]

OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH BITCH FIGHT

[polishprincess1994]

Hehehehe Everyone is just following them like "Hell yea a chick fight!"

[GetPhunkyWithIt]

The person who wrote/composed this is a GENIUS - nuff said

[crazychick2223333]

I love singing this song to random people, and i convinced my friend to sing it to her boyfriend!!!

[queenamidaldal]

2:12 I walk down the stairs like that when no one's looking.. :)) hahaha..

[xxblueturtle007xx]

did anyone see those pervs following them to the staircase

[JessicaRobbo101]

@xxblueturtle007xx They r the main cast

[animefan749]

Oh God, what I'd give for Maureen's vocal range! I love singing this song... But it doesn't quite hit the spot when my voice cracks at those high notes :/

[MobileTurd]

Yeah, I settle my relationship problems with a public sing off too.

[misscanadarain]

what does inpropt to mean?

[jazleiann]

@misscanadarain I think it means like unrehearsed or something like that

[NJandRPLover14]

Idina is just legend

[LennonsPeace]

I definitely have a massive girl crush on Tracie Thoms.

[presqueislepwnz]

Both the top comments are by he same person. XD They deserve it though.. 'cause of their name. :D

[ChrisFREAKINColfer]

@presqueislepwnz OMG. Thank you :)

[uuu09]

they sang this soooooooooo amazingly !

[ansaraisagleek]

wtf???

[SuziQIbo]

i am sorry but the irony that Idina plays Rachel's mother and Rachel sing's her song as her is amazing and well written

[rizladizla]

i wanted some street fighting videos. you tube has lost it

[charmedluvr33]

<3 idina <3

[luthiem17]

God I love Idina on Glee but all the comments on HER videos about Shelby Corcoran are driving me nuts, yeah she's Rachel's mom but she was already a BROADWAY LEGEND before that show stared jeez...let us enjoy RENT thanks..

[ChrisFREAKINColfer]

@luthiem17 I have to agree with you there.

Idina is Maureen, Idina is Elphie...Idina is...Idina..

She shouldn't only be known as Shelby Corcoran. She's A BROADWAY SUPERSTAR!

Becoming a gleek made me also into a Broadway junkie, and before I even saw Idina on Glee, I knew her as IDINA MENZEL. All the noobs are like "haha rachels mom.." and I just want to be like.."Haha, stfu. Bet you didn't even know that Lea Michele was in Spring Awakening.."

[cuichcoward]

-take me for what I aaaaaaaaam-

-A control freak.

fjklasjdflkasjflkasjflkasjlkaj­dslkfjalksdfjalk I died.

[JGuar121212]

Can never watch Glee the same way

[duoweiyang]

@MsMe1967

Are you nuts? Even though Glee is alright, it'll NEVER, EVER replace professional and AMAZING broadway singers. And only stereotypically 'high school musical' and flimsy flicks can say that they love unicorns. Nuts...

[tvd4lenox]

omg i need to this movie

[17andujar]

i love that they complement each other when they sing together. it gives me the shivers cuz it sounds so good. i also love the fact that everybody doesn't do anything but follow them everywhere

[MsMe1967]

Whoa! Hold the hell up peeps. You guys took that totally wrong. This is an awesome song and VERY well preformed. I truly enjoyed it. Idnia Menzel is fu(kin' awesome in EVERYTHING I've seen her in and her voice is OMG so AH-MAZING.

As for the Chimpmunk question, I heard what sounded like a "speed up" on a few lyrics and I was merely wondering if it was done for copyright issues. That's all, I swear it. I should have been more clear. ss to have upset everyone.

[Javjean]

@msme1967

Hey! Are you insane or something? How on earth can you not preference a clearly superior performance over Glee? You know what, don't bother answering.

[Punkrockchick27]

idnia menzel is the only person to play the parts shes in whether its glee , rent or wicked shes the one and only persn to play the parts

[CRHudson88]

Idina menzel thts shelby cochran from Glee lol

[ToriTangerine]

@MsMe1967 You are an idiot. They sound like that because they have the vocal talent to be able to hit those high notes. They do not sound bad or like chipmunks. If you hear wonderful songs like this on glee and then have the nerve to criticize the real talent, then just go away. Ugh. I hate it when that happens.

[TheCorrsFriends]

@ToriTangerine now, now, Glee is full of talent, even if it's just a TV show, that means nothing. But these woman have a whole lot of experience, even more than the Glee Cast, but they are all really talented.

[MsMe1967]

I never heard this version until now. Do they sound like Chipmunks on purpose because of copyright issues? Can't get enough of ma GLEE ~n~ ma KLAINE. I love unicorns.

[TheCorrsFriends]

@MsMe1967 Hey, I love Glee and goddammit, Klaine is a 99% of my brain nowadays but don't insult Idina Menzel, or Rent or anything just because you like Glee's version better, please.

[inteRentaCarVipKira]

Rent - Take me or leave m

[ellielouise16]

1:05 does idina really have a tattoo?

[1stclassliar]

In study hall today I kind of wanted to just jump up on the desk and start singing this , its a fantasy of mine

[REG474]

I love this song.

[MagicPeanut11]

There's a lot of climbing on tables in this movie..

[jenjen1722]

3 people dont know goood music

[JewelShadow666]

@jenjen1722 Four, apparently. XD Their loss.

[Rafavampire96]

thumbs up if u where here before glee ^^

[JewelShadow666]

@Rafavampire96 They did this on Glee?

[Rafavampire96]

@JewelShadow666 lol! Yes, they actually did... it was when Sue put Rachel against mercedes and viceversa... they sang it but this is better :P i always prefer the originals :) the glee cover was good though

[ChrisFREAKINColfer]

Idina Menzel.

A Broadway legend.

The awkward moment when you write about her in English and no one, except the teacher, know what you're talking about.

[NelenaLoveForever95]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer That's happend to me last friday..In English class

[broadwayxdude06]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer nothing wrong with that.. the teacher and you have the best friendship! because they're a broadway fanatic like you and me!!! :) nothing better than adults respecting broadway and musical culture.

[epacmo1807]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer I DID THAT, TOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Except my teacher didn't even get it -_-

[randomlyfresh23]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer

Thats not awkward, thats sad and pitiful. Shame on your classmates!

[tvangel89]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer

Now she is playing in Glee that should not be the case :)

[JessicaofLPS]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer No one? Damn... there not living.

[beebeautiful101]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer what was the report for? and thats sad that only your teacher knew who she is... shes an amazing singer/actress and she deserves to have more people know about her.

[JustShowLove18]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer Oh, my God. Are you serious? Are your classmates from Mars? lol

[jlbs11]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer THANK GOD IN MY CLASS I HAVE THIS FRIEND WHO ALSO LIKES BROADWAY! PHEW! I'm not the ONLY ONE!

[XxbcnogueiraXx]

This song is from the Berry´s

[ChrisFREAKINColfer]

Might I add this:

Let's just settle this about the Glee version being inferior or superior to the original.

This Version IS THE VERSION. It's the original. It's about two lesbians who are having relationship problems.

In the Glee version, it was about two friends who are divas and having trouble sharing the spotlight.

Two, very well done versions, each with their own context.

The end.

[iSing4funn]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer preach.

[12poopyface]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer i agree.

[powerpulse4]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer thank you!!! a smart person

[Michellequin]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer So true! I love both versions!

[tzukishiro]

@ChrisFREAKINColfer Really liked your judgement... Why can't everybody understand that both versions are SO different... Oh, and this is not the original, the broadway one has a different Joanne, so this is like semi original

[malaysia12000]

Looking hot in those leather leggings! lol love the glee version just a bit more...

[Maeve1331]

I love the whistle after Maureen says "who's in your bed?"

[SuperTerriableGirl]

She sings Reallllly nasaly

[stepheyrocks]

when they walk toward the staircase I love how their friends are the first ones to follow <3

[1996selen]

glee version is better

[NelenaLoveForever95]

@1996selen No one can be better that Idina Menzel and Tracie Thoms

[KeepCalmAndSayAlways]

@1996selen Damn that G.L.E.E., they make twisted abominations of everything!!

[allysuffyrox]

@KeepCalmAndSayAlways Respect for you.

[karina5186]

@KeepCalmAndSayAlways Bless you, bless your family, bless your cow

[KeepCalmAndSayAlways]

@karina5186 cow? o_o

[karina5186]

@KeepCalmAndSayAlways Mulan reference :D

[imasexybeast10]

Omg! What if... I ... Sang this to my boyfriend! He would be amazed! lol... Hes so sweet! He passed a note and said I <3 you... classic -,-" While every other girl gets poems saying girl you so fine and crap...

[filipefil]

@imasexybeast10 obviously what you should have learned from this video is become a lesbian if you want random song in your love life.

[imasexybeast10]

@filipefil Well its mostly about take me or leave me it dosent matter if its two lesbians singing it

[tatiboo9]

look on 1:55 look at angel even when the spotlight isnt on her she still seems as she is a real drag and loves colllins tooo CUTE

LOVE YOU WILSON!!!!!

[Javjean]

There will always be women in rubber flirting with me!

[Randomnes010]

"There will always be women in rubber flirting with me."

[PadProngs]

@Randomnes010 I absolutely love that line... XD

[imasexybeast10]

Wow clearley 3 people are haters and dont know how to love! same shame -.-

[IzandEmCrazyBFFZ]

Love this song!

[Sellennaaa]

I decided I would check out the glee version of this song and couldn't get through a minute of it. The original is so much better...

[TheCharGirl]

@Sellennaaa Oh come now.. Yes, the original is by far the best version, no doubt about it, but the Glee cast actually did a quite good job with this song. You would know if you actually got through the first minute.

[xYggdrasilx]

@TheCharGirl of course the glee cast did it well...keep in mind one of the main people singing that song is a main character in glee aswell. Just proof of the talent glee has in its cast. Rent worthy

[TheCharGirl]

@xYggdrasilx Rent worthy indeed! Lea Michele is amazing. As is the rest of the cast!

[benjsinister]

Nicole Scherzinger is a better vocalist but I guess Idina is a better actress.

[KeepCalmAndSayAlways]

@benjsinister Yeah, I don't think so. I don't see Nicole on broadway....

[benjsinister]

@KeepCalmAndSayAlways I was very impressed with Nicole's take on Maureen on the All-stars Rent.

[KeepCalmAndSayAlways]

@benjsinister You can't place Idina Menzel, she was just absolutely perfect for this role. Nicole is talented, yes, but it's just not the same.

[benjsinister]

@KeepCalmAndSayAlways As I said, I think Idina is a wonderful actress but I thought Nicole was a better singer. For someone who's a first-timer on the role and only rehearsed for a week, I thought she was phenomenal. I believe if given more time and a better production, Nicole could give Idina a run for her money. It's sad that she's wasting her talents on generic pop music.

[KeepCalmAndSayAlways]

@benjsinister The part about generic pop music is true. Meh. Maybe that's why I don't care for her. She's wasting her talent. Especially being on that one show, the X-Factor. Like, what is that?

[benjsinister]

@KeepCalmAndSayAlways I believe she joined X Factor to help kick-start her solo career. But the show didn't work on her favor as she found no time in promoting and finishing her album as the judges are required to mentor the contestants assigned to them. That show is a mess and I am just frustrated that someone like her is trying so hard to be a popstar and making music that is age-inappropriate. She could at least do mature R&B or adult contemporary.

[Sellennaaa]

@benjsinister Do you realize what you just said...?

[ellielouise16]

@benjsinister no way !

[omgitsaveryduh]

@benjsinister NEGATIVE.

[pottsy871]

@benjsinister omg you did not just put that Idina is a better vocalist and actress the Nicole !

[JessicaRobbo101]

I have a play list with 50 songs and there all the same song ....................Duhh THe song that your listing to right now

[xbladespirit5]

I woke up with this stuck in my head. I haven't seen this movie in at least a month.

[MainxStreamxDaydream]

Elphie, now that you're a lesbian, I've decided to make you my new project :)

[JessicaRobbo101]

@MainxStreamxDaydream Haha thats the worlds funniest thing ive heard i am a huge idina/kristin/taye/ broadway fan

[Javjean]

@MainxStreamxDaydream

That's not from Glee, is it?

[MainxStreamxDaydream]

@Javjean Don't think so

[Javjean]

@MainxStreamxDaydream

What. Ever.

[EmoPrincess42596]

I love this movie <3

Makes me cry everytimeeeee I watch it.

[MirageEspejismo]

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this!!!!! Wish I could see this on Broadway so badly!!

[ChenzelElph]

@MirageEspejismo its off broadway :( its been off for about two or three years now

[MirageEspejismo]

@MirageEspejismo I'm aware that unfortunately it's been off....it's just wishful thinking. I was just wishing they could do another run of it, it's such a great story :)

[knp921]

2:59 COME AT ME BRO

[charleeboi88]

Glee has NOTHING on this!

[SeaGreenCP]

DANG!

I wanted to gif Idina saying "There will always be woman in rubber flirting with me!" in HD, but you cut it out. ;n;

[TheBlahBlahNews]

'Meh...she's singing and HOLY SHIT SHE'S ON A TABLE....SHIT JUST GOT REAL.'

[msonlykote]

I love this movie :D and Idina is wonderful!

[pottsy871]

i know all the lyrics to this and i have only listened to this 3 times :D

[tgif961]

Idina sings in 2005 and now Lea em 2011

Idina plays Lea's mom in Glee, so cool!

[kutekitty1021]

[sweetypeady]

I have to say, I LOVE glee. But their version SUCKED compared to this.

[JoanieCharbonneau]

There was a time when I used to listen to Rent ALL the time.

[jtizzle369]

this sounds like its been sped up
