Jaimee Bingley Firstly, she’s absolutely amazing. Secondly, I’d like to see you try. Upload a video of you singing the same song and we’ll see who’s better.
You were absolutely amazing and I'm even more blown away because of your age. I hope to see you do great things. I was called back for this song at my local theater and I think your rendition is my favorite of all the ones I've seen on RU-vid.
This performance was better than ones I have seen on New York stages. I am donkey in my schools production and I hope this scene turns out as good as yours
Discovered this video in 2014/15 at the peak of my Shrek the Musical obsession. Finally showed my wife Shrek the musical and had to search for this video because it’s my favorite performance of my preferred Dragon song!🥰🐉
wow. very impressive. I'm doing the lights for this production now. opening night was last Saturday and our final performance is this weekend, 7pm Saturday and a matinee at 2 on Sunday. Our Dragon is 21,attends the MS School of Performing Arts. I would be hard pressed to choose a favorite now. excellent job.
this was literally exactly what i needed, i was looking for good performances to use as a reference because im auditioning for the dragon, and this is literally perfect! you are such a talented actress and singer, and i can only imagine how much you’ve improved even from this spectacular performance. sorry im a decade late, but great job!!
Your facials are AMAZING. I really believe your annoyance and anger and disbelief! Fabulous vocals not withstanding! I hope i can do this character justice, you're such an inspiration!
Thanks for posting this! I recently was called for call-backs for Dragon! Your version really helped me get into "character". Your gorgeous and holy cow you have an AMAZING voice! Thanks for everything dear!
Man, I can't stop watching this!! I just tried out for our shrek the musical and they think I could do Dragon.. But after that... I'm doubting my own talent. Haha!!
That was so amazing! I'm doing the Jr version but its still pretty cool. Our dragon is amazing too but I don't know if she'll be able to compare to you! Anyway, yeah. Awesome job!!
Oh my goodness...was that amazing...or was that AMAZING? You were absolutely fantastic singing this song. :) Keep up the lovely work and keep defying gravity! ~Kylie
I have seen this preformance at least 100 times. My friend played dragon and used you as inspiration. And she was great! (like you) It would mean a lot to her and me if you responded. She really looks up to you as dargon. Thank you sooo much! -angelina
i am dragon for my school play and im looking up tips to make my performance better and ... YOU WERE OUTSTANDING!!!! At 13??!!(i am too but..) That is serious talent you have! I hope you keep getting roles because you are so good at your expressions and everything!!!!!! Keep doing what you're doing because you're amazing at it! I hope i can pick out some things I saw that can help my own experience.XD i will be rewatching this so many times to get the hang of it! You are the best I have seen so far! Congrats on your part and I hope you get other great roles in the future!!! Thank you!!!! xoxo, Gossip Girl XD jk ahahahaha -Daisy
I love this cover, your voice is so powerful😍😍 I did this song when I was about 10 for a performance night it's on my channel but it's nowhere NEAR as good as this😍😍❤️
I might be a tad late on the comments chart but thank you for posting this inspirational video! I'm auditioning for Shrek in a couple weeks with this song, and I'm hoping to get the dragon as well :)
Oh my god you're only THIRTEEN? I'm being casted as dragon and I'm also 13 and my vocal range and power isn't even close to your's! You absolutely killed this role!
Auditions for Shrek the Musical Jr. is tomorrow and I’m auditioning for Dragon and there are like 7 other people auditioning for Dragon... I’m nervous! Pray for me.
Verse 1: Another day inside my keep I get no rest, I get no sleep ‘cause when I start to count my sheep You come around [Donkey: I-I’ll just come back a little later than, okay?] I draw my shades and lock my doors Still you come for what ain’t yours Like a hound dog on all fours You sniff around and around and around Chorus: You’re gonna stay You’re gonna stay You’re gonna stay Forever Forever [ I wish I could stay but forever sounds like a long time, and uh I got a hair appointment] Verse 2: Another knight, another name ( Backup: Another name) But all in all you’re all the same (You’re all the same) Foolish moth you want the flame that you fly around.

Omg! You're so amazing! You're such a great singer and this preformance was AMAZING! I'm trying out for dragon in an upcoming production and I was wondering if you had any pointers? It would mean the world to me.
Well i decided to play a very "sassy" dragon, and had a lot of fun with it. So i guess i would say to try to have a lot of attitude. Vocally i would make sure you can hit all the notes before you start worrying about the volume, and if you can't hit something play with it and find a way around it making another vocal choice. This song is challenging in parts. I'm sure you will do great! BAL!!!
If you do watch me as the dragons voice doing the "FOREVER" song there are two videos. One is a close up ( opening night) which is my favorite.... The other is the whole scene with donkey and the dragon. Forgot to mention our play was SHREK JR. The Musical. My song was shorter than yours. I would really love some feedback from you. Thanks so much! I'd love to see one of your plays someday and meet you, but I'm in the SF Bay Area. Anyway.... LOVE watching you. This dragon "FOREVER" song is my favorite performance of yours!!! Amazing! Love, Grace 💕
my school is doing this for our musical in the fall and i really want fiona but if i don't get her the dragon is my second choice. when i saw this i couldn't believe how good you were. wish me luck at auditions in september!
