love your voice (=

[leojrevlis]

MY voice?

Oh - ya mean HER voice!! ;-}

Yeah, it's very sturdy and right on key. At every performance, I looked forward to her performance of the piece.

[cmh281288]

sounds like she's heard the performance from Camp a little too much.

[leojrevlis]

Well actually, she wasn't even aware of the movie. The film came out in September, 2003... and this clip is from March of 2004; not much time to study that crappy flick. But thanks for the knock.

I really dont think she has a clue of what she is singing about.

[crimsoncrow]

hear voice is to refined, she did not capture the bitterness of the character nor does she have since of irony about her line.

[skewlboypin]

fairly good performance, especially considering this a much "older" part for a teen ager to sing, really written for a woman in her 40s

She totally missed the alcoholic midlife crisis part of the song.

This girl is really good. A little too pop sounding for my personal taste. She sounds a little Barbara Walsh from the revival, but obviously she didn't try to imitate her, since the revival came out a couple years later. I would've liked it to have more guts and be a lot more raw, but this is still good nonetheless. I still don't think Company is a very good show for a high school. They did it well, but the kids can only go so far with the characterization, since they haven't had the experience.

That was absolutely amazing! Very talented!

[armandofarras]

they are not old enough.... simple.... that girl is not meant to sing that song... it's meant to be sung by a midddle aged woman... this musical is meant for 40 yearolds... little as 30.

[wackybrinyc29]

WOW! this girl was excellent! I was impressed how she made it a song but yet all the bitterness of the lyrics came through. Good job whomever this girl is.

[giantsquidrule]

Most people's complaints about this production are basically, "They're not old enough". Not enough people seem to be saying what a brilliant production it is! I've done a bit of amateur theatre but nothing compared to any of this. I'm preferring these clips to the ones of the professional Revival also on YouTube. This girl has a great voice and gives a good interpretation if you ask me. Well done everyone!

[yelanates]

Her voice is very good, as has been said. :)

Well, I don't know what people are complaining about. I like it. Besides, does anyone really expect a 16-year-old to be Elaine Stritch?
