Wow! I just found you and heard your Satisfied cover and thought "she'd murder Elphaba." Lo and behold I found this. You KILT IT!! Such talent. Let me know where to purchase your CD 😉. That CONTROL is insane. You sing and emote just like Mandy Gonzalez, Arielle Jacobs and Karen Olivo. Rachel, mark my words, we're going say, "I knew her when!!"
That mix, though. Smoother than butter. Yoir vibrato goves me life. That growl on "scream". This riff at the end is just godly. The little skip at the end is adorable. The piano is flawless. Just perfect.
Why isn’t she Elphaba. Great expression Beautiful vibrato(which closely resembled the vibrato on Broadway) Exceptional musicianship I hope she does well as Maria.
this is the second comment ive seen you respond to. yes you can have your own opinions, but please be nice. we need more positivity. just please, be kinder :)
Literally the most talented girl ever. Been watching you since the beginning, and so excited to see you be Maria in West Side Story. Lots of love to you girly!
Did that really just happen? Have I actually understood? This weird quirk I've tried to suppress or hide Is a talent that could help me meet the Wizard If I make good So I'll make good When I meet the Wizard Once I prove my worth And then I meet the Wizard What I've waited for since, since birth And with all his Wizard wisdom By my looks, he won't be blinded Do you think the Wizard is dumb? Or like Munchkins so small-minded? No, he'll say to me I see who you truly are A girl on whom I can rely And that's how we'll begin The Wizard and I Once I'm with the Wizard My whole life will change 'Cause once you're with the Wizard No one thinks you're strange No father is not proud of you No sister acts ashamed And all of Oz has to love you When by the Wizard, you're acclaimed And this gift or this curse I have inside Maybe at last, I'll know why When we are hand in hand The Wizard and I And one day, he'll say to me "Elphaba A girl who is so superior Shouldn't a girl, who's so good inside Have a matching exterior? And since folks here to an absurd degree Seem fixated on your verdigris Would it be all right by you If I de-greenify you?" Of course that's not important to me All right, why not", I'll reply Oh, what a pair we'll be The Wizard and I Yes, what a pair we'll be The Wizard and Unlimited My future is unlimited And I've just had a vision almost like a prophecy I know, it sounds truly crazy And true, the vision's hazy But I swear, someday there'll be A celebration throughout OZ That's all to do with me! And I'll stand there with the Wizard Feeling things I've never felt And though I'd never show it I'd be so happy, I could melt And so it will be for the rest of my life And I'll want nothing else 'til I die Held in such high esteem When people see me, they will scream For half of Oz's favorite team The Wizard and I
saw Rachel's snippet of this that she posted on twitter on halloween and googled a full version, and lo and behold here it is and I could not be happier!
