Lea's gift has always been the amount of emotion she could pack into a song. Yes, she is a beautiful singer. Yes, there are better voices out there. But the difference is that some singers perform the song better - Lea inhabits the song. The listener BELIEVES the song because she lives it.
Ok. I really have to give comment again. Ms. Lea that was so beautiful. Ang ganda nung nung high notes. Wonderful. "The movie in my mind". Ay naku so beautiful. Sound so theatrical. Effortles, flawless. Then oooooh my goodness ung falseto sa dulo. As a former choir member mas naaappreaciate ko tlg ang classical music. Since when I was a kid, ewan ko b bakit mas prefer ko. Clap clap clap to Ms. Lea, walang kupas.
Rachel Ann will fit Gigi's role soon.. especially after the training she will undergo in London.. Now she does still sound a little "pop-ish" but she will soon sound more Broadway.. SHe still lacks the calmness, clarity and emotion.. QUeen Lea, such a music icon and royalty!!! Such a musical treat!
the clarity of Lea's diction is superb, simple but clear, you don't need to add unnecessary sounds in the words/lyrics to be a good singer, just pronounce them well so that the listeners can enjoy the message, enjoy your singing.
Godbless Miss Rachelle Ann Go the new Gigi of Miss Saigon. Kung nagkataon na bata ka lang im sure you will get the role of Kim. Pero thankful pa rin kasi nakapasok ka. Imagine ang mga nag audition na sikat na singer sa Manila ay sina Karylle, Juris, Sitti Navarro, Laarni Lozada, Angeline Quinto, Frencheska Farr, Aicelle Santos, Apple Chiu(who played Gigi in Korea). Pero ikaw lang naka pasa at pina audition ulet sa London. Pagdating doon ay pinakanta ulet kalaban ang mga taga ibang bansa pero ikaw pa rin talaga nangibabaw. You've been underrated since then pero ngayon International caliber kana.
Rachelle sang as if she's singing a Pop song. Noticed the time when she drew out her mic when she sang the high notes? BTW, Lea sings beautifully. Her voice never change. She still sounds like an Angel ♥
oo nga, sa stage play, when you sing, you cannot draw out or get rid of your mic, it is stable, clipped on your hair or somewhere near your mouth. but RAG is not too bad for Gigi role, more exposure and training lang siguro need.
Lea is still amazing! Rachelle has moved higher as a singer with her inclusion in Ms. Saigon. Too bad ABS let her go.....she's one of the finest and not a product of hyped and text votes.
BRAVO! i'm sure this is the highlight of the concert.. amazing! A historic duet - from the original Kim and the new Gigi for the 2014 revival of Ms Saigon. GOOSEBUMPS!!!!
Fantastic! I guess this was before Rachel went to London and obviously have not yet trained vocally for the role. I am sure she sings the song more differently now, more superb like Lea.
Rachell sings well. Yet the Mastery of Lea is very clear. Iba talaga ang nasa Theater. Ang laps ni Rachell here ay inilalayo nya ang mic pag dadating na sa Hign note/s na iyon. Un kasi ang training sa Pop singing, but look at ho Lea holds the mic, nandoon lng, inilalapit p nya ng konti. Iba talaga si Ms. Lea. Pero how blessed si Rachell dhl once again pinay nanaman ang napili to play the ame role.
Im always thankful with Ms Lea salonga because she supports Rachelle Ann. Even before when she was asked about her favorite filipino singers hindi nawawala ang pangalan ni rachelle ann go.And she even mentioned Rachelle as one who can play the role of kim in Miss Saigon. Now, magkasama na sila sa iisang stage =)
OMG!! Wow! This is the first big number in the show. Rachelle set the bar way up high. The new Kim will have to work real hard so as not to be overshadowed. This makes me want to hop on a plane for London in the summer.
And that is what you call.........A MAGNIFICENT PERFORMANCE....!!! I love you so much Miss LEA SALONGA...! YOU ARE STILL THE BEST...!!! Good Luck Rachelle Ann Go.... keep up the good work...!
Rachelle still looks as if she's fresh from those karaoke singing competitions from years ago. still looking pop-ish. However, I believe that after her run in london she'd be fully furnished as a stage musical performer with a strong voice and a less "pop" packaging. I also think she's perfect for gigi. she's got that statuesque and that "get out of my way" look in her face which is just perfect. cannot wait!
rachelle and lea wow amazing.. Hindi pa nakakaapak sa west end si rachelle pero ang galing na, paano pa kaya after gawin niya ang miss saigon.. Mas lalo siyang gagaling.
I always get goosebumps whenever I hear Lea sing this song :)) Rachelle got way better after this performance :)) She sounded more amazing in her performances after she trained for her role.
To judge Rachelle's performance right now against that of Ms. Lea is unfair. Lea has been into theater all her life while Rachelle only started three years ago. Plus, at this point in time, Lea has had the honor of being trained by the team of Miss Saigon years back while Rachelle has yet to go through it. So please, let us just put things into perspective. Rachelle will not bag the role if she didn't have what it takes to be Gigi.
YES LEA SALONGA IS MORE THAN LIFE EXPERIENCE IN THEATHER BUT IF YOU ARE GREAT SINGER YOU CAN BEAT LEA SALONGA BUT RACHELLE ANN GO CANNOT BEAT LEA SALONGA NO CAN BEAT HER
@@alyssacruz8516 I love ms. lea.. but if ms. lea will sing songs that rachelle sings, ms. lea would not beat her... the point is, they have their own strength.
Royal Fierce Lea will definitely not sing Rachelle’s songs the Rachelle’s way. She knows her craft so well. She will sing it her way using her own range, maximizing her strengths within her own limits. That’s the secret why Lea’s performances are consistently flawless.
lea is lea.no one compares....rachel is good and pretty and sexy..lea has a very good diction at its very clear,,her voice and expression of lea`s face and sense of humour the whole package of lea extremely into a world class.
Rachelle has an excellent vocal quality. She only needs to develop further theatrical nuances, qualities that a mature and seasoned theater performer that Lea Salonga has. No question, Lea Salonga is the QUEEN! Talent at its best! And, both are from the Philippines huh!
Rachelle Ann go's theatrical voice will develop more as soon as Miss Saigon kicks in in west end. They're gonna have more practice there and believe me when she comes back in the Philippines her voice will become more amazing!
