damn girl! One of the very best renditions I've heard of this song! And there aren't too many Asian Americans in musical theater, so this is even more awesome for me to stumble upon this :) (I'm Asian too)
I'll never have the power to control the land Or conquer half the world Or claim the sun I'll never be the kind who simply waves her hand And has a million people do The things I wish I'd done But in the eyes of heaven My place is assured I carry with me heaven's grand design Glory, Oh, Glory I will sing the name of the Lord And He will make me shine And I will be like Mother Mary With a blessing in my soul And I will give the world my eyes So they can see And I will be like Mother Mary With a blessing in my soul And the future of the world inside of me In the eyes of heaven My place is assured I carry with me heaven's grand design Glory, Oh, Glory I will sing the name of the Lord And He will make me shine And I will be like Mother Mary With a blessing in my soul And I will give the world my eyes So they can see And I will be like Mother Mary With a blessing in my soul And the future of the world inside of me And I will be like Mother Mary With the power in my veins To believe in all the things I've yet to be And I will be like Mother Mary And I'll suffer any pains For the future of the world For the future of the world Inside of me
Beautiful - I'm singing this for an upcoming recital, and would agree that this is one of the best performances I've seen. Lauren Kennedy has a nice one, too; she recorded an album of JRB's music.
I'm singing this song on an upcoming recital, and I'm excited, 'cause I think it fits my voice pretty well, and I sound pretty good on it. But this! I am blown away. This is far better than I could ever do, it's so beautiful.
Your voice is absolutely stunning. It has a phenomenal natural quality, and such an ease of production! :) Please post more! I would absolutely love to hear more!
Amazing voice. One of the clearest renditions of this song I've heard on RU-vid. I don't know if you were required to wear a black dress, but sometimes you turned into a floating head. To make this the absolute perfect performance, more facial and physical emoting is needed. Good luck!
my favourite amateur performance in here, you really suit this song, i love it :) your voice just suits it si much better than some of the others on here
I'll never have the power to control the land, or conquer half the world, or claim the sun. I'll never be the kind who simply waves her hand, and has a million people do the things I wish I'd done. But in the eyes of heaven, my place is assured. I carry with me heaven's grand design. Gloria, Gloria, I will sing the name of the Lord, and he will make me shine. And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul, and I will give the world my eyes, so they can see And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul, and the future of the world, inside of me. In the eyes of heaven, my place is assured. I carry with me heaven's grand design. Gloria, Gloria, I will sing the name of the Lord, and he will make me shine. And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul, and I will give the world my eyes, so they can see. And I will be like Mother Mary with a blessing in my soul, and the future of the world inside of me. And I will be like Mother Mary, with the power in my veins to believe in all the things I've yet to be. And I will be like Mother Mary, and I'll suffer any pains. For the future of the world, for the future of the world, inside of me
A lovely and inspiring rendtion of this somewhat difficult composition. Having worked with many of my voice students, I know how challenging it is! I wish that one of them could have sung it as well as you! Ecellent!!!!
My best friend is singing this for her musical, she's trying to teach it me so I can duet with her, but I don't know whether I should.. What do you think?
