Thanks so much for this, do you have Morgan James's song by any chance? BTW Lindsay Mendez is awesome!

[Christopher Cherry]

No offense but it's true.

[Christopher Cherry]

Well, she'll be Elphaba and you won't. So, I guess your opinions are a little invalid. lol

I know that she has a really high voice because I've seen her is Godspell but in this video, she just seems to be trying to hard to stay in her chest voice and not go into her head voice. Which probably reveals the fact that though she has a high voice, she doesn't have a high belt! Even in Godspell she seems to be straining to belt the higher notes.

Not at the end just throughout the song. Just because she hits a high note at the end of the song doesn't mean that she sang the whole song as amazingly as others have. Besides she's flat all the way up until the last verse.

[Christopher Cherry]

She's gonna be amazing. Haters back off Mrs. Mendez...

[Christopher Cherry]

she opts up on the end... are you deaf?

[LisaKellySingerHolic]

She doesn't seem to be able to hit the higher notes as well as some other Elphabas...

She is going to be the new Elphaba on Broadway. She has an incredible voice. I'm sure the producers wouldn't give her the role if she couldn't handle it. Best wishes Lindsay!
