Listening to Lea is not just Listening to a good singer. It is a life experience! I have been listening to her since she was a young girl. she was astounding then and more that that even now! She is a gift. Very very special. I am happy she appeared in my Life Time.
Lea is an excellent singer who performs these songs near perfectly. She transitions between songs effortlessly and makes every minute real.....great job Lea!
Proud to be Filipino...Lea is a legend,she never lose her voice and I know she will be an effective coach of the voice of the Philippines.... Go Filipinos !!
I saw Lea in the original Les Miserable in London and when she sang On my own, it brought the house down. It was my favourite song from the show. I fell in love with her voice then and fell in love with her too. But old enough to be her father at the time. lol
every time lea sings, i feel like i can see the staff, the notes, the sharps and flats, and all other musical symbols plus the lyrics of the song she is singing coming out of her lips and floating in the air! Lea Salonga is Lea Salonga! More power Lea!
Lea is exquisite and I am glad we are able to record her as Fantine in the 25th anniversary recording of les mix concert. I saw her in Broadhurst Theater as Fantine and you can hear a pin drop and people sobbing when her character died. Never thought she can deliver and set the bar high after Patti Lupone but Lea's Fantine was my most favorite portrayal then Patti!
The passion and feelings when Lea sings sets her apart.....add to that the clarity and power of her voice and you've got an extraordinary performer!! Bravo!
This is THE singer of our time. Anyone who doubts she is the best need only listen to her sing 'I Dreamed a Dream' at 'Broadway at Bryant Park' with only a piano accompaniment. Stunning! And the end to any argument advanced on behalf of other singers.
If you wanna see lea showing emotion in a musical, then search for " the legendary lea salonga in miss Saigon" this video hos three Filipinos playing the roles of Kim, thuy, and the engineer. I've been watching and listening to miss Saigon since I was 5, when it was first opened in London, and I have to say, this video is the most powerful performance of miss Saigon I've ever seen!
MAHAL NA MAHAL NA MAHAL KO TLAGA ITONG SI LEA SALONGA! LOVE YOU LEAH YOUR FOREVER PINOY FAN, DITO SA NAPAKALAYONG MUNDO NG MINSK, BYELORUSSIA, LOVE YOU, I ALWAYS LISTEN TO YOUR OLD SONGS ESPECIALLY BAKIT LABIS KITANG MAHAL?
This was at the PICC from the concert Onstage Lea Salonga. I was there. It was an amazing night made more amazing by the fact that I got to meet and greet her backstage. She always takes time to meet her fans after each concert. Very professional indeed, on or off stage.
All I can is epic performance. I love every minute of it. I just love how Lea is singing the ending of on my own and everyone behind her brakes out into one day more. EPIC!!!
i love her facial expressions during the video. they may seem exaggerated to someone who doesn't view music seriously, but it definitely delivers the message thru the music. she definitely knows what she's doing more than an average singer.
