If Ciarra loses the role of Esmeralda for the live action Hunchback film to a bigger name celebrity my faith in Disney will lower even further. She knows the role, and clearly has the pipes and acting ability. She was even Elsa on Broadway.
I love this song so much! Her voice is perfect for it. To answer the question yes Mary was an outcast too. She was pregnant outside of marriage and not many people would believe that it was miracle conception then...
And same with Jesus! The very God we worship was an outcast during His life on Earth. True followers of Christ embrace and serve the outcasts of society, encouraging them to seek joy and freedom in eternal things, (which is something we should already be striving to do ourselves, in stark contrast to the "Christians" in this scene). We must remember this as Christians, or we're missing the entire message of the Gospel.
@@glecyrances1874 I think the Mary you're talking about is Mary Magdalene who was going to be killed because she was accused of adultery until Jesus stepped in and helped her. The Mary they're talking about is Jesus's mother, the Virgin Mary.
Oh my god, I’m absolutely in love with this Esmerelda, she plays the character perfectly! When the ensemble joined in and started harmonizing, that was legit perfection! This ensemble is incredible and when they joined in, I started sobbing from the pure beauty of it all! 😭💕 I love this musical so much 💕
There are actors who play the role and then there are those who are dedicated to their role. This is a perfect example of raw and true dedication! God bless!
She's amazing. While I had no problem with her Hawkgirl character, they really underutilized her acting ability. They made her into a love interest on Legends and it was such a waste because the woman very clearly has the acting ability.
Love love love it! Thank you for sharing your talent. Beautifully done. I kept watching other vids of this song and you hit it girl!!! Love love love it!
I was lucky enough to see the La Jolla production and this song got me misty-eyed. While the lyrics are rooted in Christianity, for obvious reasons, they could apply to other faiths and/or belief in the divine in general. I was raised Christian and am now Wiccan and I believe that the gods, especially the Triple Goddess, look out for the most vulnerable when they're approached for help and that it's our job as humans to do the same. That's what I love so much about Victor Hugo's stories: They're deeply spiritual in ways that everyone can relate to. In fact, they often point out that religion gets in the way of spirituality and genuine connection to the divine, as is seen in the character of Frollo. But I digress. This song is beautiful, this performance is beautiful, and as someone who's loved this story since childhood, getting to see it brought to life before me in a theater was a truly special experience, a night I'll never forget. Bravo and blessed be.
I don't know if You can hear me Or if You're even there I don't know if You would listen To a gypsy's prayer Yes, I know I'm just an outcast I shouldn't speak to You Still I see Your face and wonder Were You once an outcast too? God help the outcasts Hungry from birth Show them the mercy They don't find on earth God help my people We look to You still God help the outcasts Where nobody will I ask for wealth, I ask for fame I ask for glory to shine on my name I ask for love I can possess I ask for God and His angels to bless me I ask for nothing I can get by But I know so many Less lucky than I Please help my people The poor and downtrod I thought we all were Children of God God help the outcasts Children of God
I don't know if you can hear me Or if you're even there I don't know if you would listen To a gypsie's prayer Yes I know I'm just an outcast I shouldn't speak to you Still I see your face and wonder Were you once an outcast too? God help the outcasts Hungry from birth Show them the mercy They don't find on Earth God help my people We look to you still God help the outcasts Or nobody will I ask for wealth I ask for fame I ask for glory to shine on my name I ask for love I can possess I ask for God and his angels to bless me I ask for nothing I can get by But I know so many Less lucky than I Please help my people The poor and downtrod I thought we all were The children of God?

Came here from a comment on a Michael Korte video, and now I'm going to search for other songs sung by her, she's like a female Josh Groban or Disney Princess v2.0 or Broadway Beyonce (I like the last one the best).
