  • Take a look at - 10 year old sings memory, she is fantastic so much emotion from a 10 year old

  • William Why the hell did you say that ? hahaha

  • i love this but the name of the song is Midnight, the other one is memory

  • Elaine Paige sings this with so much passion, and never fails to bring me to tears when I hear her version of this.

    Absolutely brilliant !

  • I think it's cool susan boyle wants to do what Elaine Paige can do, and I think she has the potential. But I don't think she wants to BE paige, so I'm kinda sick of ppl comparing BOyle to Paige. They're both talented, and I actually looove Paige...

  • i know this song since i was 10 but i don't know the singer, no media about elaine paigne in Thailand, CATS's version in Thailand was sung by Thai singer....

  • me too. I'm from Thailand and I'm just 20 so i don't know who is Elaine Paige ,

    but after i listened "Memory by Elaine Paige " I think I like Elaine Paige's version than Susan's version. I think I used to listen this song 10 years ago.

    But I still like "I dream a dream-Susan's version"

  • hey I am for Cyprus ,I am just 17 years old and i knew Elaine Paige since i was 14 years old...

  • this song is elaine.elaine is the song.

  • No comparison.  Elaine owns this role. No one, and I mean no one, can compare with this performance. End of story.

  • janeaustinadmirer

    I lov Susan boyle... But I agree with you...

  • I love Susan, too, but it is obvious who leads here. Elaine's vocals are perfect. Her acting is perfect. Watching her, you BELIEVE she is a cat who has used up her 9 lives and then some.

    What a performance!

  • DIVA.....

  • she did... and it didnt compare at all!

  • Just listened to Barbara's version which I loved, but Paige really embodies this song.

  • To those who think Barbara is better then Elaine? listen to her singing this same song in concert in London...she has more soul in one finger then Barbara has in her body when it comes to feeling a song. Plus? She doesn't have the mega ego to go with her talent. She's a pleasure to listen to and watch.

  • Elaine is awsome... and she has the brains to stick to what she does best and thats singing... As for Barbara she's egotistical and when she talks politics she shows just how STUPID she is.

  • Elaine is good... lacks the range and power of Streisand singing this song, though.

  • This song isn't about power, or range, it's about feeling.  Elaine nails that.

  • I much prefer Elaine Paige than Barbra; Elaine was the original singer of Memory in Cats, not Barbra. Has Barbra even acted in any Broadway Plays?

  • ...more than Elaine has, actually!

  • Yes, she has, and in the West End also.

  • Susan Boyle brought me here, I did not know who Elaine Paige was before that.

  • Me too.  This is a great song and Paige is wonderful. I agree that Streisands far left politics are a real turn off.

  • fantastic voice, bringing across all the emotion the song should . Elaine Paige is a wonderful actress and singer.

  • Copy and paste if Susan Boyle brought you here and you didn't have a clue as to who Elaine Paige was

  • Copy and paste if Susan Boyle brought you here but you do know who Elaine Paige is.

  • the only, and I mean, the only saving grace from this rotten play.

    I saw it 3 times in NYC, and everytime those "cat" creatures came crawling around me I felt like giving them a smack.

  • LOL why saw it 3 times then?

  • I had to. I was only a kid and my parents made me.

  • Had never heard of Elaine. She can thank Susan for introducing her to a new audience. Hope they both continue to be successful each in their own way. Susan has a naturally powerful voice seemingly able to produce beautiful sounds with little effort. Elaine is powerful too but with effort.y. Let's hope we can enjoy both these great talents.

  • I have to say, she's incredible!!!

  • One of Elaine's best performances

  • Elaine Page is someone Susan would like to emulate. She can do just do that and probably better. Go Susan Go!

  • Rock on Susan Boyle! I didn't know who Elaine Paige was either! Great singers but don't think they keep up with my fav Sahra Brightman! ¤ø„¸¨°º¤ø„...ø¤º° ¸„ø¤º°¨¸„ø¤º°¨

    ¨°º¤ø„¸ GO Susan ¸„ø¤º°¨copy and paste

    Yes, and Susan Boyle may already be more famous.

  • Copy and paste if Susan Boyle brought you here

  • Actually, this is wonderful...I can see why Susan Boyle aspired to be like her.

    And agree with below- can't wait for Susan to record this!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I thought I was the only one to like this song but not "CATS." I saw a video and wasn't impressed. Just didn't have enough substance for me. Maybe this song of course.

  • i can't wait to hear Susan Boyle sing this!!

  • Does anyone have a backing track or karaoke version of the first act version Memory. If you have it please send me a personal message. Thanks!

  • she should start looking for a louge in las vegas to sing at. SUSAN BOYLE IS IN TOWN

  • Elaine Paige kicks Barbra Streisand's ass singing "memory"

    This performance is simply AMAZING!

  • I love the song, but I saw Cats on Broadway, and HATED it!

  • hrystya,

    I agree with you absolutely. This is a great song sung extremely well, but "Cats" wasn't worth squat. The era of "My Fair Lady", "Music Man", "Carousel", et al is gone and with it the most talented contemporary composers and writers seem to be flailing away helplessly. The only exception to that has been "Phantom of the Opera", but this has mostly been a bleak three decades for Broadway.

  • the song is so beautiful

  • yeah it is!!!! it's my favorite song!!!!

  • this video is from the CATS video version! Ask anyone else!

  • Yes, it is. I have it on DVD.

  • It was filmed in 1997 when CATS became the longest running musical on Broadway and was released in 1998.

  • I love this movie. If you didn't know this is the movie version. Anyways, She sings beautifully every time she sings but, I think in this scene she sounds the best. Also have you heard Jamima sing? Wow! She rocks!!!!!

  • awsome

  • I love Elaine Paige singing this song. Her voice and perfomance is soo beautiful!!

    Me encanta Elaine Paige cantando esta canción!!

  • I prefer her version than barbara straisand one...

  • it's soo sad and so beautiful!!!

  • um. a cat? why?

  • um... thats the name of the musical?

  • cats

  • Elaine Paige played this part beautifully... no matter how many times I see Cats, this performance of Memory by her always brings me to shed a tear... partly due to the immense feeling that it expresses, and partly due to it's sheer beauty. Briliant...
