Based on these 53 seconds (at least as came through on my computer), they did a good job in designing this excerpt of playing to her strength--dancing/moving--and using the chorus to, uh, augment her voice when needed. Bet it was great to see live and in its entirety.
This must have been a very down night because I saw this production and I had some trepidation about her age and she was the best Reno Sweeney I have ever seen. This production was excellent.
even when she was younger chita was never as much of a singer as she was a dancer. she is still a killer dancer in her older age but she should go for some less vocally heavy roles.
listen to her in Kiss of the Spider Woman, she hits great notes, and her best friend, who we all know, Liza Minelli, said chita hit terrific notes and got everyone out of her seats in that role, though I think she is a great vocalist, I do agree, dancing is really up there in her strenghs, thats why I think her as Velma Kelly was the perfect role
No no no no..... :(

Dude, she's old. Her vocal chords are wearing out. Listen to her perform this at a younger age. you'll see why, everyone.

why is it so low? chita has an amazing range, surely she can sing the original version much better than she does this

Well, she was in her 60s or 70s when she was in this, so she probably can't belt as high anymore. If she can, that would be AMAZING.

I love you Chita, but why were you cast? Is it like down an octave or something?
