  • Plus why would they dub someones voice just because their accent was thick, maybe people misunderstood the dvd.

  • I find it hard to believe that it's Helen's voice like everyone is saying it is. Unless Helen is perfect at tim ing when to sing so it matches Veerle mou

  • @basketball30ism Veerle is portraying Jemima, but Helen is the singing voice. They did this because Veerle's accent was too thick and it was hard to understand. Veerle does sing and act as Jemima in one of the Dutch versions of Cats though.

  • Why can't I find Helen anywhere else? I wish these two were the same woman... Veerle's looks and Helen's voice? GAH, I would I would have to have her.

  • does anyone know if its veerle singing or helen for jemima?

  • @basketball30ism I'm sure it says it's Helen in the movie. Veerle is from I believe Belgium, so I guess she had an accent and they had to dub her. I'm unsure, because I have been looking up different actor/singers.

  • @basketball30ism Its Helen :D But i heard comments that her (Veerle's voice) is beautiful as well :D

  • @chickenWingofAWS yes, the original voice of Veerle is beautiful (sounds so diferent the voice of Hellen and the original voice of Veerle, the hellens voice sounds like more angelical and the voice of Veerle kind of diferent, but its sounds so beautiful, i think who its a matter of personal opinion) you can see the video of the original voice of Veerle with this name on You tube "Veerle Casteleyn (Dutch cats)" you can choice between the two first videos that appear. i hope you enjoy :D

  • @chickenWingofAWS or if you want to listen to her with her clean voice, put in You tube " Veerle casteleyn het balkon" and is the video who only say "het balkon" :D

  • i have a life goal to meet veerle, any help would be much appreciated :P shes to die for

  • veerle is the actress for jemima, but helen massey dubbed her voice over for the video. you can check other cats movies and hear veerle's real voice.

  • Its slightly unfair how someone can be that talented and beautiful =P

  • God must have been in a really good mood when he created Veerle Casteleyn and Helen Massey.

  • Comment removed

  • idc how messed up her teeth are, i LOVE them!!!!! they are so cute! i love her eyes too :)

  • this is the best jemima moment edit i've seen

  • Thank u!!! Jemima is my fave!!!

  • If there is a goddess somewhere in heaven, i know she has her voice!!!

    i love it <3

  • Veerle Casteleyn... what can I say? There are no words in all the languages of the world to describe her. And Elaine Paige... WOW... just WOW

  • God's gift

  • She has the most Beautiful voice I have ever Heard (: Omg!

  • she has THE prettiest eyes :D

    and i love her voice <3

  • wait no helen massey thats who singing

  • Veerle Casteleyn voice is soooo beautiful it makes me wanna cry it's so pretty it makes me feel like i'm floating on clouds

  • @thefamilyname1 it's not veerle that;s singing it's Helen Massie veerle is lipsyncing, cause of her accent they dubbed her voice with Helen's singing

  • @FloptinaisGagasBitch Just to back you up, you are correct.

  • Elaine is a much better singer, yet I find Helen/Veerle (whichever one it is) to be more enchanting.

  • shes the youngest!

  • This is the best video of Jemima!!!!!!!!!

    She's my fav cat!

    Hey! look at my vid response of me as Jemima :)

  • waiit . who's helen massey ?

  • She dubbed the singing parts of Jemima.

    Because of Veerle's accent.

  • so is veerle singing in this at all ?

  • @emilyoverthehill She is singing. The girl who played her had too heavy of an accent apparently so they dubbed her voice for the recording.

  • Angel voice! I love her. She is so cute too!! I wish I could hear her everyday without turning my computer on. Love this video!!

  • Most beautiful song and voice and girl in the world. So sweet, melodic and peaceful.

  • Her voice is SO clear. It's like water!

  • @100vwls It is almost perfectly clear except that it sounds like she might have had to cough (hear that soft scratchiness?) Still so beautiful though!

  • she has such a beautiful voice...i love it

  • Jemima is my absolute fav. cat! I love this video way too much. I watch 100 times a day.

  • Thank yu for this!! Jemima is my favorite cat!!

  • That kitten is way cute...so adorable.

  • OMG angel voice in the room and this is a very big room.

  • I feel sorry for Helen she doesnt get like any credit. Veerle does. Helen Massey has this beutiful, amazing voice but Veerle gets all the credit.

  • Jemima!! Go Jemima. Jemima rules. Veerle and Helen and Jemima are like my idols and cat idol.

  • when she sings I just magically become happy. I love her voice

  • seriously,... i love the person that posted this video.. its about time Veerle Castelyn got the recognition she deserves a true angel and the world should hear her brillance

  • She sings like an angel! I wish she had a bigger part so I could hear her voice more though. She and her voice is beutiful

  • wow, Helens voice is gorgeous

  • why is she lip syncing? why can't Helen just be on stage?

  • Veerle has that look... but she has a heavy accent in her usual stage venue... as for Helen, I know little, except now she is more a vocalist than a stage performer, and was used specifically for the DVD version of the stage show.

  • she lip synchs because she had a heavy accent

  • oh, thanks...i didn't know that ^_^

  • @Starshine1396 b/c helen is fat

  • Her  voice makes me cry and gives me goosebumps-the good kind

  • A voice like that only comes once in like 10 years.

  • holy...crap...angel voice!!!

  • Her voice is just wonderful, excellent, amazing....... I love her so much.

  • even though she is lip synching I love veerle. she is so adorable! her face is so beautiful. helen massey has one of the most beautiful voices ever.

  • I totally 100% agree with you

  • @stardusth2o is that who's singing? helen massey?

  • @MusicalbanAnna yes. veerle casteleyn is acting and the voice is Helen Massey. Isn't phenomenal?

  • Yeah I think it's the most beautiful voice I've ever heard!

  • I love her voice

  • She is so great!

  • GO JEMIMA!!!!

  • Jemima is the best. Love the costume makeup, songs, voice, and dancing. I love her and i'm crazy for her

  • Really cool makeup

  • Helen Massie's voice is OK, but I like Veerle Casteleyn's real voice much better. It's cute, bright and clear. But Helen Massie's voice is ggod to. But - as I sayd - Veerle Casteleyn's is better!

  • Every time I hear her voice I want to cry because I love her voice. She is my favorite cat.

  • goose bumps - the good way :)

    just beautiful - 5stars.

  • She has such a great voice. Doesnt she?

  • Great compilation!! wonderful vocals!!

  • I know right

  • JEMIMA RULES.

  • i love her voice and i love jemima

  • i remember when this first came out... i used to watch it all the time and i still do

  • @gaarasbloodyshadow14 is this a movie??(:

  • @TheMagicOfDisney101 yes if i remember correctly, the film cam out in 1998

  • THE best upload on the tube!

  • I've always cried at the part where her and Elaine sing, ever since I was 4. haha, so my mom says. Its such a beautiful part!

  • at first, i thought someone was dubbing her. she's so amazing!

  • Well someone IS dubbing her....helen massey.

  • Einfach nur wundervoll!

  • wonderfull <33

    I love her voice

    and this song

  • I love her. so much. Great voice

    I want.

  • I prefer her gentle whispy singing voice to her operatic voice...she shouldn't have gone into opera because her voice is so relaxing/angelic when she sings like this...:(

  • Maybe she got a better offer salary wise from the Opera side of things!

  • You should listen to it on her website before judging cuz she's amazing.

  • If you want to hear Casteleyn sing it's much easier to just go to the related videos and click on "Veerle Casteleyn as Jemima in the Dutch Cats".

  • Ahhh, Hellen Massey sings soo beautifully <3 , to bad she only sing opera now...

  • turn on your annotations and the bubble will point you to where she is at. Watching it in high quality also helps a lot!

  • grr.. where is elaine paige hiding?

  • on the back of the car thing

  • oh haha i see her!

  • ok...so where can I hear Veerle Casteleyn singing? Where its actually her singing...? k thanks :)

  • She was in Romeo and Juliet The Musical, and she recorded 3 songs on there but they're in Dutch. Her Solo is called: 'De dood van Julia' .

    Just type that in and you'll find it.

  • I just heard her singing and she sounds pretty good. She has a nice soprano voice.

  • this song makes me sad. and makes me dread getting old.

  • телочка ниче такая

  • я бы тож вдул)

    тока ей щас 31 год ужо)

  • 31 не 61

  • у редкой бабы такие глаза выразительные

  • does anyone know the lyrics to the last song? if so please reply back. thank you

  • Sunlight through the trees in summer

    endless masquerading

    like a flower as the dawn is breaking

    the memory is fading

  • thank you

  • thats the one you wanted right??

  • was her voice dubbed AFTER this was recorded or did she sing live for the recording?

    Did she mime it?

  • Probably both. Acting also involves mistakes and re-takes!

  • If they recorded it like they do with most musical films then they record the vocals before they shoot the film.

    So they're all miming (though probably still singing when this was filmed) but she's not miming to her own voice

  • why havent these actors done anything else much??

  • Veerle has an extensive repertoir of musicals since 1997 when she was 17 just google her.

  • :)

    shes realy good.

  • her eyes are pretty. :)

  • I totally love Jemima! she's so cute and pure(L)

  • jemima is so cute!!! i am very happy because i will be part of CATS here in Puerto Rico and I will be Jemima!!! :)

  • bravo wonerful

  • Something this good should get wider attention. I'm thinking of writing the Oprah Winfrey show. Maybe she can get Helen Massey on and we can hear her sing "Memory" all the way through. Possibly also she can get Veerle Casteleyn and Elaine Paige on too! If you think the same, here's Oprah's contact info:

  • I love it. I love the face of Veerle and the Voice of Helen ist amazing. But I am wonderiung why her voice sounds that different in other songs of her. It's really a pitty. Thx for the great cut

  • NOPE IM PISSED THAT THERE NOT TOO....but on all the itunes its not helen massey (the voice you hear in this vid) it sucks!

  • awesome i was in cats i was rumple teizer

  • I've seen here live on a dance-show :D

  • If it is based on the movie, It has to be sung by Helen Massey.

  • Comment removed

  • Even though the girl isnt actually Helen in person but Veerle, they make an amazing pair due to Veerle's beautiful face and Helen's absolutely breathtaking voice

  • just cannot stop playing this, what a partnership, truly outstanding voice of helen massey with the utmost stunning looks of veerle castelyn....her eyes...they just make me melt?

  • wait! what song is really the voice of veerle and not dubbed? sorry please someone tell me..^^

  • they will have music like this in heaven.

  • Wow that Helen Massey has a voice like I have never heard before, truly hauntingly beautiful.

  • This montage from CATS is the most beautiful two and a half minutes I've ever witnessed! The last part of the second verse and the beginning of the refrain where she sings "sunlight through the trees in summer . . ." just cuts me to the heart! I've seen it at least twenty times now and I honestly can't stop watching it! God! Help me!!!
