I never thought anyone could do this better than Patti Lupone, but Lea Salonga is the best musical theater voice I've ever heard. Found her in Miss Saigon, when she was just a kid,and have loved her ever since.

Lea's diction, timbre and voice resonance, and her storytelling is what sets her apart from others...a truly gifted artist and performer.

She's our very own, Lea Salonga. Mabuhay, Philippines👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Lea Salonga is the original Kim (lead ) on Miss Saigon Broadway musical and the voices of Jasmin on the “A Whole New World” song from Aladdin and “Reflection” from Mulan.

Lea Salonga is One of the Best and Unique Singer in the World!!!!😍

The 1st Asian who received a TONY AWARD. She is a Broadway legend. The original voice of two Disney Princess. Jasmine in Aladin (A whole new world) and Mulan (Reflection). The 1st Kim in Ms Saigon.

It’s hard to choose between her phrasing, vibrato, and crystal clear tone in this video. This is one of my favorite performances by her.

Lea Salonga is the Best Singer in the Philippines. Her angelic voice is like a lullaby to me. I love her a lot.

I saw her in Miss Saigon in London when I was 12 years old. To this day she is one of the best musical theater singers this world has ever had.

Miss Saigon-Lea Salonga An actress and one of Philippines best singer.

Lea is just perfection. Had the opportunity to see her live and meet her at the airport with her daughter . I can honestly say as talented as she is, she is the kindest and sweetest person and took the time to have a conversation with me before I boarded my flight. She was waiting for hers. A memory I’ll always cherish

Lea salong is totally a gem..a rare one indeed...i knew phil blessed with many of talented singer past & present.. Her articulation & voice are perfect, on of my fave so far..malaysian fan here btw😊

Well, Justin, you just unlocked the rabbit hole of Lea Salonga. You should react to On My Own from the Les Mis anniversary concert. I think that version is the gold standard.

Disney’s legendary voice. She voiced Princess Jasmine of Alladin, Mulan. Tony award winner. Sir Laurence Olovier. Winner. The original Miss Saigon of west end and broadway.

Perfect pitch & sings with clarity. The conductor is her brother Gerald Salonga. Bravo.

LEA SALONGA YUSSS SHE’S A VOCAL QUEEN

So proud of Lea Salonga. She's the best. Proud to be a Filipino.

She just sings the impossibly hard songs so effortlessly. Shows you the technique and talent she has is UNPARALLELED.

The Queen! You can't help but be mesmerized, can't take your eyes off, as she carries you through the song down to the last note.

Thank . Beautiful reaction. Greeting for Argentina 🇦🇷

Shes not simply singing, she sings frm her heart, interpreting the story of the songs with deep feeling. Very clear diction, great singer and we are proud of Lea Salonga, from Philippines.

Lea Salonga and Gerard Salonga (the brother and the conductor) are the perfect duo! 🎹🎷🎻🎤🎼🎶🎺

Her voice is so perfect that you can touch the sound with your hands.

She is really incredible. She played a variety of roles on stage. Annie, Les Miserables, Miss Saigon to name a few. An actress both film and on stage. A singer. A Disney character singing voice. A great artist.

Loads of emotions from that articulate singing of Ms. Leah Salonga. I shed tears many times.

She's the queen!...with elegancy in her singing field!..a proper broadway 🎭 actress!..no one can stand against Leah Salonga in terms of broadway in the Philippines!..She's the Queen of broadway here in the Philippines!. 🇵🇭 ;0)

Lea is a well sharpened sword that is being wielded by a master- pierces your heart with her voice and story telling.

Lea Salonga is one of Philippines treasures....from broadway and west end to disney princess as singing voice of Jasmine in alladin and Mulan.....thanks Justin fot reacting to this.

The way she tells a story..ugh everytime takes my breath away. Her voice is just FLAWLESS, so crisp and clear. She is iconic! a LEGEND in broadway. My hero! 💗🙏🏼✨

She's not a Tony awardee for nothing! One of the Philippines' greatest artist! ❤

She’s more than amazing ,I can clearly understand what she’s singing.

She's a Tony winner for her Miss Saigon performance. You will be interested to know that she's an ARMY and is publicly supportive of BTS in her tweets 😃

Lea is very articulate and every song she sings is like telling a story you would love to hear over and over again 😍

Lea Salonga is the greatest Broadway Si ger of all times, no one can sing and tell stories at the same time, perfect pitch, voice and annunciation. Love her to death ❤

That is why she really deserve to be one the The Voice Philippines coach. She has all the talent and a true gem in singing.

As a musician myself - Lea Salonga has a certain way of being perfect in whatever she sings.. she's very articulate, the landscape of her singing is always perfect -and she's consistently perfect. Her live versions are even better than the recordings, it's the opposite for many singers

we Filipinos are so very very proud of you ms.Leah Salonga!..thank you for all what you've done to make our country famous!..God bless you!

LEA is gifted to have amazing, excellent and outstanding voice. She's great.

She is our pride. A good voice and a beautiful lady.

since her childhood day she play in Annie and Sound of Music, then in her teens day she play in Ms. Saigon and Les Messerables and Disney songs☺️😊🥰❤️World Class singer in the World⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐💯🇵🇭👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Lea Salonga is one of my favorite singer. She sings Don’t Cry For Me Argentina very good. I also love her in her concert in Japan with El Divo. I was fortunate to see her as Kim on the play Miss Saigon when it opens in Los Angeles California.

Thank you for this!pLease more of Lea Salonga Please!😊

No doubt! she is really a legendary in music industry... 🥰😘💜 love you always our Broadway diva💜💜😘🥰

I'd never heard her before, and saw her on Great Performances. And I was instantly hooked! Everything was perfect about her. The white gown, her singing, and the little trills she put in. That red lipstick! Like it was put on with a paint roller, and I loved it! But most of all was her emoting. Chewing up the lyrics and looking like a tiger about to pounce, with claws spread wide! I've been looking for her GP appearance. I have a collection of songs that are greatly enhanced by video. I want to add this song! And, hear more from Solea. Thank you, PBS!

Several reviews has been done on Lea's cover of this song both by vocal coaches and others but you were the only one who informed us your viewers that what Lea did was messa di voce!.. what a great review!.. new sub here amd and new follower on your IG!.. keep it up Justin!

Thanks, Justin for featuring our 90's Tony awardee Ms Lea Salonga.👌💜 Hope you can feature her other stage performances starting from Miss Saigon to the latest performances.😍 More poser to you, Justin Burke

She won Tony Awards for Miss Saigon.

One of the G.O.A.T. in Philippine Music Industry. She still sings until now. And I love that she likes my seven faves too. Her story was that she was discriminated back before just because she's a Filo, they were afraid her diction will not be clear and that her vocal technique might not be on par but she proved them wrong.

Exquisite talent- no 1 and I don’t think someone can top Lea Salonga. Bravo!!!

Goosebumps! Gosh i watch this many times but it never fails to amaze me everytime.

Some one who understands the meaning and the proper emotion of the song. Crystal clear enunciation, pronunciation, and articulation. No need to belt, just perfect pitch, technique and proper use of dynamics. Vocal and musical genius.

MS. lea Salongas Voice is Crystal Clear...she is Perfection!

Great singer and storyteller The pride of the Philippines

She is a legendary singer of Philippines, she has a golden voice

she has an amazing voice and gives a full emotion everytime she sings... A great singer that makes our country proud❤️

She's one of the greatest singers that we have. Truly a national treasure. 👏👏👏

She is really incredible!

She was and still is an awesome singer. I love her voice.

I have listened to her voice thoousand times, phenomenal

She is been singing long before you we're born, been part of Miss Saigon, Les Miserables, Mulan, Alladin and more....

She's my favorite! Her voice is flawless!and btw, the orchestra conductor is her brother❤

I really love this version of Leah Salonga (Don’t Cry For me Argentina!

The living Disney Princess herself, Ms. Lea Salonga!

I have a goose bump.. leah is the best her voice is amazing. It's like coming to heaven. The control of her voice in every notes wowww.

Lea is a rare gem of a singer. She's been honing her craft since she was a little girl. I am very fortunate to have grown up listening and watching her become the great talent that she is today. I think she's been a performer before you were even born Justin, but kudos to you for introducing Lea to a whole new (younger) audience. More power!

❤👏👏👏☝️🇵🇭🙌🏻🙌🏻proud to be Filipino,Lea Is My IDOL

We are proud of Lea Salonga. Proud to be a filipino 😍

If you haven’t seen her rendition of “On My Own” from the 10th anniversary performance of Les Miserables is simply amazing. It’s the gold standard for a performance of that song in my opinion

You need to watch her Les Miserables performance. It's perfection.

Thank U idol Lea Salongga is our Diva!! She's the most talented singer N the Philippines we luv her so much ❤.

A super superb, diction, story telling while watching this super goosebumps a super proud here our very own Miss Lea Salonga.. Superb..

Lea Salonga orginated the role of Kim in Miss Saigon. She is also the singing voice of Princess Jasmine and Mulan. And to add to that, she is also a Olivier and Tony awardee. If you want to react to more of her, I recommend you listen to her duet with Regine Velasquez, a musical medley. You also need to check out her performances during Miss Saigon!

She is an angel sent by God to sing for humanity🙏👍🤍😇

I heard this song so many times but to hear her sing it brings me chills because she sings in a way that she's not only singing but telling the history of that song.

The song was interpreted so well. Excellent!

She always sang with articulate.. she's really amazing 👏

Wow Coach Justin!!! I love the story how you trained a mom to have power in her voice. So inspiring. And loved your reactions to this. So on point. I felt that way too. I reached audio ecstasy while listening to Lea here. When you listen to Lea Salonga, your heart hears. Not just your ears. Heart and soul feel what she sings. It's amazing. Yes here in the Philippines, we love good music and dancing. It is part of our culture. Music is part of the Filipino soul. I guess every human being's soul. But for us we take music seriously because it is a shame if a Filipino can't carry a tune. Hahaha. Because people sing during gatherings... We are videoke addicts. Lol.

I have always been partial to Patti Lupone singing this. This was my first time hearing Lea singing this and she was absolutely incredible. Also, I watch MANY reaction videos to many different songs and genre's and I liked the way he he allowed the music to flow through him and the way he gave information throughout the song. He would stop the song briefly and then get back to it. There are too many out there that stop it and just talk, evidently just to listen to themselves.

Oh my. Her voice! Brought tears to my eyes

you are actually reacting to the Original Voice of A Disney Princess... Lea originally sang Princess Jasmin's A Whole New World and Princess Mulan's Disney songs... just sharing heheh

My Queen Lea Salonga 💜 I personally think she’s on the top of the world in vocal’s world. Period. Thank you for looking her up. She’s the true idol of mine 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💜🙏🏼🥰🔥🔥🔥 Goosebumps!!! 😱😳🤯

Ms. Lea is so well-loved here in the Philippines. Her perfect singing is 10001!!! So much respect!

I got goosebumps... Ms Lea Salonga gives me that... WOW!!

Lea is amazing- im a huge fan- one of my fave broadway artists- her theatre career is incredible along with being credited as the Disney voice for Jasmine (A whole new world) and Mulan's singing voice -- original Ms. Saigon/Kim, Tony winner, Lawrence Olivier winner - loved her in les miz both as Eponine in the 10th anniversary and fantine on the 25th anniversary among so many more -- there's lots of vids of her live performances -- one of my fave is her Andrew Lloyd medley, Too Much for One Heart and I still -- its quite a rabbit hole to fall into but you will love it.

The broadway legend, Lea Salonga! 💜

Your speaking voice is heaven to my ears! 😍

Lea is one of the best singer in the Philippines. Justin, GOD bless you more 😘🙏

so love the voice of lea salonga, thanks for featuring
