Lying There from Edges

[TheDeathlyHallowsx]

im so freaking obsessed with thissssssss omg

[cathleenwright]

Is there a reason you chose to belt the entire song?

[stephl1224]

@cathleenwright i felt like it helped me to portray the emotion of the song better...it's a rougher sound when the character is at her most distraught, as opposed to a prettier sound that would come from my head voice :)

[peanutpollinoyo]

@cathleenwright she didn't belt, she mixed?

[MickeyT1129]

my only criticism is that she closes her eyes WAYYY too much in this performance. otherwise great :)

[XxmainstagexX]

Favorite version. Just stunning.

[BriM458]

where oh where can i find the sheet music?? SOMEONE HELP ME

[CamGillies93]

She has such an amazing voice!

[Akuchan7]

She's got a good belt and head voice, but there's no mix. Was she sick in this performance? It's weird, she's got this older, edgy sort of look, but her voice is so much younger sounding than her face. I expected her to sound more like Idina or even Edyie.

[imprintmaker]

Erin Wegner Brooks has a version of this on YouTube. Beautifully sung, gorgeous voice, but poor camera work, The performance is in a Cabaret that the cast of traveling Young Frankenstein put on for Actors Equity charity in Sarasota Calif. recently.

[Monkeydoodlepop]

I can't stop listening to this... Just amazing x

[theguythatsings]

It's the kind of voice that makes you sit up and notice, and want to hear more.

[DanRiffsAlot]

wow.

beautiful performance.

love the different colors to her voice

[ThaisLovesToSing]

Beautiful <3

[cheerupemokids05]

i think i like this version better than farah's version. you rock this girl! glad you're kickin' ass on broadway now!

[06kikalo]

1:10 is probably where the best part of this song starts! Wow!

[xxcharlie994]

stunned

[nepadipas07]

i bet your sister is really proud of your success!! WOW.

[moormanthanyou]

what college are you from?

[timmetzner]

@moormanthanyou stephanie went to messiah college and is now finding oodles of success in nyc.

thanks for commenting :)

[yourfriendthenerd]

@timmetzner WHAT?! I'm a freshman who just started going to Messiah  and have been looking up this song cycle. Awesome that I ran across this clip!

[timmetzner]

@yourfriendthenerd i hope you have a blast there. steph and i had great experiences. 

[yourfriendthenerd]

@timmetzner Thanks! It's been GREAT so far!

[Nattalyee]

This song is gorgeous! I love Edges!

[xjustkissher]

if you want to hear this song performed the way it was written to be sung....watch Farah Alvins version

[BlakeTheMusical]

@xjustkissher If you want to hear this song a whole step BENEATH where it was written to be sung, watch Farah Alvin's version. Don't get me wrong, I love Farah's version, and I think a solid vocal performance is better than stubbornly singing in a more difficult key, but comparing this girl's performance with one where the key was lowered is a little unfair.

[diva9371]

You show more characterization just sitting there and singing, than most people can do with a whole stage. Wow. Just wow.

[KittyPrincesa]

absolute GOOSEBUMPS. that was AMAZING!

[Kaitjuhh]

Seriously, I keep coming back to this video.. Why isn't there more material of you on youtube than just the few video's that are on here.. You're simply incredible!

[cstoneb1234]

I love the end of this. Fantastic!

[ethanismygoat]

I just listened to/watched a bunch of videos of this song, I wanted to add it to my favorites. You are phenomenal. This video of this song was by far the best compared to all the other ones that I saw. Everything you did with this song, the singing, the acting, is beyond words. Great job. This video is now in my favorites! Best version of this song on youtube by far.

[Conkabar]

anyone else find the piano intro derivative of JRB's opening to Songs for a New World?

[jw1293]

@Conkabar - yes. I'm actually the guy playing the piano in this video, and I've also played some JBR and I found the music to have some similarities.
