Lea Salonga "I Dreamed a Dream" Northern VOCAL COACH Analysis/Reaction Theatre Thursday "Now Then" 

Oh what a review!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍

Well Lea's legendary crystal clear voice makes RU-vid subtitle machine nearly lost it's job.

The very first thing that always strikes me when I see this performance of Lea’s - how is this 15 years after the “On My Own” performance???

My gosh I have never looked I Dreamed a Dreamed this way. That review of each emotions and story and the music is just so brilliant. This is what makes you guys so original. Wow as in wow!!! Keep it up and please continue this kind of review to sets you apart from the rest of reactors. Well done Christian and. Beth 👏👏👏😘😘😘

Other than your reaction to the artist performance/technique, your side comments of the story of the musical help me to appreciate more of the artist and musical. This is the kind of reaction I/we needed. Keep up the right pace guys. You're doing great!

Now I understand more of Lea's facial expressions based on the context of the story/song.

What a beautiful analysis of a beautiful song flawlessly performed by the beautiful Lea Salonga.

Do really appreciate the reaction because you’ve manage to explain the theater technicalities, the story line, the character as well as the vocal techniques that Lea used. 👏🏼

I have seen this show countless times, and never once realized (until this performance) that Fantine always had a locket. I only noticed it watching Lea. Like you said, she sells it.

Best Fantine, Best Eponine, and the only Kim. Queen Lea. Great reaction. I love that you look beyond the awesome voice and dig into the actual art the artists is portraying. Cheers!

I am SO IN LOVE with your reviews of Lea! I will never tire of watching them. It is so amazing to hear the appreciation of Lea’s vocal and acting talents in this way. Please keep up the great work!

i love the facial reactions and expressions of this girl reactor

Thank you... for this "Leah" thursday...lol. always looking forward to this day. I get to watch it on weekends... Wow, Beth, your face shows just how you feel with the interpretation of the songs !

I hope it is always Thursday ❤️. Legit reactions ❤️❤️❤️ Queen Lea Salonga 👑

omg now you made me look at that character in a different light with your explanation of what their journey is and what goes through her mind in every line

I am a huge Lea fan and now a huge fan of you guys!!!...your reviews are the BEST!

Your reviews are always great! We learned a lot about the intricacies and complexities of singing and theatre. And at the same time, entertained on your reactions. @christian - the way you raised your brows twice... and did you whispered “cheeky” as she was singing “then I was young and unafraid..”? Love it! 😉🥰 Suggesting another “Lea” Miserables reaction video. 😉 Fantine’s Arrest. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-x7F86J3Zu64.html Especially the part of “you let your foreman send me away” and the emotions on “I never did no wrong”. Every time I watch that part, breaks my heart.

This channel is so underrated! The most intelligent coaches for me ! From vocal perspective to the emotional aspects of singing! 👏👏👏

Please react to her latest musical theater performance “ human Heart “ from once on this island

please please please make a reaction vidoe on her Miss Saigon scenes, like I'd Give My Life for You or Sun and Moon

Great review like always! The meaning, feelings, interpretations, and the technical aspects..now that's how it's "completely" done.. I'd love it if you can make a reaction to lea and michael's "a little fall of rain" from les mis 10th anniversary dream cast.. Thanks and keep it up, guys!

Great review. Thanks also for giving insights into the character of Fantine... And indeed, Leah’s acting is engaging and her voice Superb. Keep in reacting both.

If my memory serves right, the locket was the only memorabilia that Fantine's mom has ever left her.

I read the line "I dreamed that God would be forgiving" as not really asking to be forgiven but hoping that God would be merciful, kind and forgiving so she would not suffer or at least suffer less for her choices. Enjoy your analyses of these songs. The great thing about songs from musicals is the story held within and the depth of meaning. I suggested this before so I was glad to see you react to it! I'd like to suggest/request you guys to check out Jessie Mueller singing "She Used to be Mine" (but maybe not from the awards show bec I think that was a slightly shortened version?)

I forgot the review is close to 25 mins. I guess I enjoyed it! Great job to Lea and to you both! Have a great wkend!

Just to point out during the live musical she was on the floor sitting and singing that same song. How she makes it sounds exactly that way is just simply amazing.

On this song as well as "On My Own", the contribution of the french horns is amazing.

Sorry I had to see this 6 months later. But then again, this is yet another great reaction , voice analysis, interpretation whatever music professionals call it. I’m just really enjoying watching you guys doing these reaction videos and watching your videos has become a part of my daily routine to put my self in a great mood. I’ve always wanted to watch all these stage plays in person and be able to understand deeply about what each character portrays and the message they want to convey through these songs. And to me, you guys are like my personal guide watching these music plays and giving me a breakdown of the performances and making me understand better even with the simplest gesture the singer is doing on stage; explaining why she did this and that… Thank you so much Beth and Christian. Stay awesome you guys! ❤️ from the Philippines 🇵🇭

Again, understanding the character, emotions and the story. Not just singing or hitting the notes.

Thank you for this review! Although this isn't your first lea salonga reaction video, I learn different things every video. If I may suggest, this is my favorite miss saigon scene. :) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jeKoCeDIt84.html

Her doing Dont cry for me Argentina is another kind of emotion

Hi just came across your vlog/reaction and you guys are awesome. Intelligent detailed explanation n analysis of the song. I thought I already met the best reactors but no there’s still you two. Most knowledgeable with this type of songs. Thanks. Really enjoying your video.

Great review guys!

Hi! Can you react to SB19? They are from the Philippines. They just uploaded their latest MV entitled WHAT? the leader wrote, compose and co-produce the song. the youngest is the creative director and all of them choreographed the song too :)

Amazing reviews.. how about rachelle ann go's version...?

awww thank you for another lea Thursday!!

Next: Rachelle Anne Go's performance of Burn from Hamilton please... That brought me to tears

Lea is world class, a real Pinoy pride. Thanks for giving her attention. She is one of a kind.🥰

i love Ms Lea salonga... timeless beauty, a filipina talent. future national artist 🙏...

Every time I watch the 2 of you reacting to a musical theatre piece, I feel I'm in a master class. The way you explain the acting along with the vocals makes me wish to be your student!!!

This is a great channel. The analysis, oh my goodness. These people are legit theater people. Love love love!

There are singers and there are performers, and then there is Lea Salonga.

Can you react "the best pie in london'" lea salonga version??? Please!!!

I'm living for this analysis.

too much talk, can you finished first the song before you react...thanks

Alienette sang this song "I Dreamed A Dream" (J'avais reve') on the Wishbus 107.5FM

I'm a huge fan of Lea and awed by her career. As for those three iconic Les Mis and Miss Saigon roles: Kim? Yes, I saw her as Kim on the final Broadway preview performance of Miss Saigon. Eva Noblezada was also wonderful as Kim years later but Lea has been the best Kim for me. Eponine? Not so much... I saw her twice during her stint on Broadway and she just didn't do it for me. I know I'm spitting into a tidal wave of Lea Love here. I also love Lea, but not as Eponine. As she did in the 10th anniversary performance, she overpowers 'On My Own,' rather than feeling it... I much prefer others, starting, of course, with the definitive Frances Ruffelle, who was Eponine. Fantine? I saw her just once live as Fantine on Broadway and she was much more convincing in that role than as Eponine. As I said, I'm a huge fan of Lea. Each to her or his own for preferences. Finally, Beth and Christian, if you ever read this, you two do a great job with your reactions... in this case and with 'On MY Own,' you're such fans of Lea that anything she does is tops for you. I'd be interested to see/hear you two do a comparison with others such as Stephanie Martin, Frances Ruffelle, Sutton Foster. Aside from that understandable perspective, your commentaries are excellent and truly appreciated, especially from a fan of Les Mis since the 1980s. Thank you!

Can you react to REGINE VELASQUEZ " What kind of fool I am" Please!!!!

So impressed with your analysis of Lea Salonga's performance of this Les Miz song--her delivery--and how you both relate the context of the song with the ebbs of emotions as she portrays the character of Fantine. Loving this song more...indeed so overwhelmingly admiring more and more of Lea's superb talent. Kudos to your awesome comments! 👏♥️

Thank you for this!😊more of Lea please!😊

i love your review!! very thorough!!! i hope you can watch Lea Salonga in Royal Albert Hall this coming June =)

Please react to her audition in miss saigon

Please do a reaction video of Lea Salonga's One indescribable instant from Crazy ex girlfriend. 🙏🏻

I love the reaction. Can't wait to share this to Lea's fan page am sure they're gonna love this.

Pure gold. Yes, that's Lea. But i am also talking about this review. Thank you so much!

You guys are so great with what you do. The way you do the review is very informative, this channel is very conducive to learning. Keep it up!

Hey hello new here i love all your theatrical reaction to lea salonga..so can i have a request to do a reaction vedeo of Regine velasquez WHAT KIND OF FOOL I AM cant wait to see your reaction to that😊

i love your insights. makes me understand why i love lea salonga playing those iconic roles in musical theater.

I think I heard that inside Fantine's locket there is a lock of Cosette's hair, so she carries Cosette with her even if they're far away from each other. Maybe I'm wrong tho, but I think I heard it or read it somewhere, maybe in the original novel.

WOW LEA WOW. GREAT REVIEW GUYS ❤❤

I didn't feel it with this one. Voice just too deep for Me on a few notes Like "be" "seemed"

Seeing Lea as Fontaine Vs seeing Lea as Eponine has me so conflicted!

thank you! can we have a cup of coffee. and chat about life? you too are the best.

Thank you verry much!♥️♥️♥️

This is a very informative video, guys. Now I'm binge-watching all your vids. Lol

You have a good review. It is like I am in a classroom listening to teachers. But I actually not a musical person, and yet, I find this material highly educational. Excellent!

Your reactions were quite wholistic and awe inspiring in the sense that you delved on both form and style of the artist's performance while you relate them to the story and back story of the play, as you sweetened it by sincerely offering how you feel about them. I am impressed. Very good job to you both. And thank you for enriching my knowledge on and depth of emotions for Le Mis. More of this, please.

She's a queen. How about reacting to her singing "burn" from Hamilton ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-X-HxAw0sKY8.html or Lea and her mini me ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-pXv3qUW56UI.html and also Lea's daughter ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-yjpi3MOa2HY.html

It's almost 3 in the morning and I've been glued to many video reactions such as this one, but man, this Then and Now's been the one I've been on the longest, I mean, they're not merely giving their opinions on the performance. They know the story as well of the musical it's like I'm being taken inside the story because I feel it the way they explain the artist's portrayal of the character through her emotion, diction and stuffs that I never would have noticed if they didn't explain it. I was so taken by the performance because of how detailed their analysis is.

Blurred lines next please

Please react to elaine duran cover of "because you loved me" and "weak" shes also from Philippines .. love you guys ♥️♥️

Lea and Regine pls!!!!

Please react to "HIGHER" from the Broadway musical ALLEGIANCE ❤️

I hope you can also react to Regine Velasquez singing "What Kind of Fool Am I?"

Hey guys you should check out regine velasquez a piece of sky (highest verson)

My eyes welled some more just hearing your review 😔😭😟😞 pulled me in through and through. Thank you

You guys are so awesome. The analyzing is very detailed and specific ...more more more. Please react more to Lea of course and Regine Velasquez with the song A piece of sky

Expert review; I agreed with everything you guys said! New subscriber here =)

I commend these 2 reactors for having so much proficiency and knowledge they are talking.

It would be good to specifically say the things that are different now as compared to her singing/her technique. Why is her singing different? And you said today you dont teach this kind. What is being taught today? Kindly elaborate. Thanks!

Bravo

I drive ships and you two breaking up the song and the way the singer delivers has given me humongous knowledge.. your briliance with clarity of digestion is superb and excellent..May God bless us all with more.. Keep Safe too.

Butthe thing with Lea compared to others is that everybody who listens to her could understand the lyrics of the song....which should be the standard for all musicals

Good review! Please react also to Lea Salonga and Regine Velazquez Musical Medley duet. I would love to hear your thoughts about it.

Thank you for all the reactions to Lea Salonga's performances. I am a fan of Lea and I have seen her perform in Les Misérables and Miss Saigon. Your reaction videos are very detailed and interesting. Bravo! By the way, the technique use in theater singing is different. The Broadway singers perform more than five times a week so they have to preserve their voice too.

Please react to elaine duran cover of "because you loved me" and "weak" shes also from Philippines .. love you guys ♥️♥️

She learned her craft in the Philippines. She was already an accomplished young actress even before she left the country. But lest we forget that she found her fame and fortune in the UK.

You two are putting us in a master class when we watch your reaction videos, and it is brilliant that you use Lea's performances in this. Lea is world class and you guys are brilliant reactors! ❤

Lea’s is a legend! Nothing to change on her part! Singing today are more lazy sounding and nothing like the classical style of singing.

I don't see the point in all this "analysis".

I think she would be awesome in Waitress.

Could You Take A Reaction of Lea and Rachell Ann Go Duet of I know Him So Well

I’ve seen and watched a lot of reactions but this duo are not only intelligent but their analyses are interesting to listen and lots of substance to absorb and learn👍
