Idina Menzel - Rise Up - Atlanta

[BroadwayJonathan]

Her backup singers are fierce.

[BroadwayJonathan]

This is my favorite Idina song ever.

[famosyyo]

:( I don't like seeing her cry. And this song puts me in her shoes and it's like making me cry. I wish I could say I know what she's going through but first off I'm like 35 years younger than her and second I'm the little sister..

[allthings01]

looks like she's crying at 0:22

[elphieandidina]

the audio link doesn't work :(

[BlueJeanBaby012]

Whoever felt the need to scream during a beautiful personal songs should have been smacked...

[WiCkEdCrAzY94]

This is such a beautiful song, I love the beat and its sound...just amazing!!

I wish Idina would come down here to Australia!!!

[BroadwayBaby008]

Wow, you're so right. I didn't even notice that scream until you pointed it out, and it's kind of hard to miss! Just too wrapped up in the music I guess... hahaha.

[teardropsofhope7]

the scream in the beginning is soooo creepy!!!! but idina's powerful emotion and gorgeous voice can make that scream seem like its not even there!!

[jnhg17]

i was so there that night and she is amazing!

[softballchicka1026]

can somebody send me lyrics to this version of the song? and if you do please click reply.

[TheatreFanatic4eva]

yeah do you want the haftorah portion too?

[GabbyDee32]

WOW!!! Amazing! anyone want audio i have it message me!

[LiveAndLoveLife]

Could someone message me the lyrics? I can understand some of them, but there are parts that I really wish I could understand, but can't... Help?

[TheatreFanatic4eva]

yeah there are some I don't understand either but I know most of the song, only one verse I don't know

....

Sing to the world, my sister

Reveal the goddess in you

Youve wondered far too long when it can be today

???????(this is the verse I don't know)????

But I know the rest of the song, if anyone knows this verse please tell me!

[ElphieGalindafied]

@TheatreFanatic4eva

Sing to the world, my sister

Reveal the goddess in you

You've wandered far too long

But it can't be too late

Alarm a million soldiers

Release a single God

Let there be no silence

'Til you mend your broken heart

[MvyMkr]

Just google em

[merrik66]

reminds me so much of my own sister. Saw her do it in concert three times and I just love it. IDINA ROCKS!!

[AL004]

i wish this was on her latest album

[Clarinetist0409]

This song makes me so emotional, just because of how much Idina puts into it.... I loooove her!!!! And this song is just GORGEOUS!!!!!!

[instantslilsis]

[RavenPallas]

The link doesn't work.

[LiveAndLoveLife]

[Cassix94]

That scream in the beginning was a little disturbing...

this song gives me chills everytime i hear it! She looks sad... it makes me wanna cry

[unabletosoldier]

the scream makes me lol although it kind of messes up the song

[Cassix94]

[Clarinetist0409]

This song just gets more beautiful every time I listen to it!! Idina is soo amazing!!!!

[Clarinetist0409]

I LOOOVE this song!!!! It's so emotional and Idina is soo amazing!!!!

[dioxie]

Okay... I keep trying to figure this out, but what are the lyrics to the chorus? Like at 1:12 to 1:25?

[blowersdaughtr]

Mother with Devorah's eyes/ Even warriors they still cry/ In your arms we can't deny/ we are illuminated (or illuminating--I don't know what she says)

[dioxie]

Aaaah, thank you! :)

[SingDance731]

@blowersdaughtr I listened a few times and I'm pretty sure the end of that -- what you have as the illuminated part is actually "Your voice, we are awaiting" -- What do you think?

[Clarinetist0409]

I LOVE Idina SOOOO MUCH!!!!!!! :):)

[idinasbiggestfan1]

OMG! I love this song! This one brings me to tears! This one is my favorite! btw the link doesn't work. well it gets you to the place but the download link is dead.

[TangoMaureen07]

Rise up has been my favorite song since she first sang it at joes pub... it still is my favorite. i wish she would make it a single.

[ilovenyc3]

This was so powerful!! I especially love the end when the music stops and she's singing a'capella!!

[ilovenyc3]

awesome!! She was so amazing in ATLANTA!!! I wanna see her again! haha I converted someone too! My aunt and my cousin.. and my mom!! haha

[JewelAnne1]

Idina was so awesome that night. I took my grandmother to see it and she felt like she "had discovered someone." LOL, she is going to buy her CD. Whoo, we need all the Idina converts we can get.

[PinkIcing7]

Agreed!!!

[poehler]

wow, you were so close to the stage!  loved this song last night. <3

[Charmed71]

I saw her the night before in Nashville. I was going to Atlanta...but then found she was coming to my hometown. ha. she was amazing in Nashville! Did she say anything about Nashville in Atlanta? I think our crowd scared her away from the south. lol.

[blowersdaughtr]

She was just talking about how her mic pack wasn't working there either.

[Charmed71]

ah okay. was it not working in atlanta?

[dioxie]

Thank you so much for posting! This is amazing, I'm so excited to see her in Richmond!

Do you have the audio for this, by any chance?

[blowersdaughtr]

Yes. I'll put the link in the info area on the side.

[dioxie]

Okay, thank you!
