Oh wow her voice is so clear. Splendid! It's like Empire State of Mind Disney Princess version.
oh my gosh, this comment absolutely made my day. ahahahahahaa
Lance Halzen indeed! her singing voice sounds like a trademark Disney princess voice. And so every other song there is she just owns and gives that princess flavor. :)
it does sound like that (Princess Jasmine) always be the sing on voice of Jasmine
i totally agree with you, Lance
She is a double Disney Princess, after all 😊
she has mastered the art of showmanship. it's a delight to watch her put meaning to the lyrics of the song.
This is one of the things that make musical theater singers stand out. They pronounce the words very clearly so the audience can understand what they are saying or singing. Beautiful!
The original singer, Alicia Keys is a good singer but Lea Salonga made it more jazzy and the song seems so clear and I appreciated the song even more. Hands down!
Agree all the way...
She can sing jazz ...wtf
@@jjraiden994 thanks
It's the Lea effect...every song that she sings just sounds better the original
true😂😂😂i thought i am the only one who is thinking like that😆😆😆
Ben Abella so true. I've always hated "Let it Go" but there's a video of her singing it if you look it up. And for the first time it was bearable.
I don't agree, i think it suited Alicia Keys voice better; Keys has a lower and deeper tone.
Ken E This one has a jazz vibe. Alicia Keys’ is r&b
Of course not! Lea is good but that wasn’t better than the original.
I'm gay,
but I think I just fell in love with Lea 🤣
I even had an eargasm 😂
😂 🤣
Seriously, whenever she sings, I kind of imagine subtitles running along the screen. She sings so clear, like a crystal bell!
I want an english pronunciation course made by Lea!
Lea's voice is so exceptional.. so clear, so crisp, so beautiful.
Fans please don't hate on me, but I used to think Lea couldn't belt and do pop/belty roles and songs. But these few days I've been proven sooooo wrong. She is so talented gosh.
She could but not really on par with the known belters. That's why she seeked her real strength in singing which is her crystal clear diction/pronounciation of words while maintaining the clarity and strength of her voice with theater being the right place for her. But she could belt though.
a tealented gosh😂✌🏻😊
Search for her singing Pie Jesu by Sarah Brightman
No artist should live forever.. but then there’s Lea S. I could listen to this Pinay a few lifetime s
This is how you sing, the audience can hear the lyrics crystal clear.
I like this song but not so much until I've heard this. Her phrasing is exceptional. and the arrangement of the quartet is fabulous. enjoyed it so much..
I was thinking the same thing actually.
the moment she sang "ooh new york" i had goosies
ooooh mismam @lumpiaqueen!!
Her version is much more clearer than the original. Amazing!
Now i understand clearly the words!
arrangment made it jazzy and elegant.
Her name really in marquees found down Broadway
I am imagining myself, late evening sitting in a coffee shop and have this song as my background music. Chillin' :)
Pat Rick ikr omg!! so chill
I would join you with my cup of tea.
Most beautiful female voice of all time
what i love about Lea is her version is very clear
She wasn't afraid to let her voice come on a little strong on the belted notes. That's nice to see, cause she often goes into the softest mixed voice ever. Not that that's bad, but I like a little more strength in the voice from time to time.
This version made me a proud New Yorker 😘😘😘❤️❤️❤️😍😍😍
This is the first time I paid attention to the lyrics 🙈. Lea is just awesome
This version makes me wanna go to New York!
She interpreted it in a way that makes you feel like you are sure of your dreams and your life.
Who's the bassist here??? He's so cool ... groove to the highest level and the sound quality is so really elegant ...
She really puts her own emotional intrepretation into the song, and she does mean what she says, so we're all taken into it with her
Her voice is as fine as a perfect summer day. Can't stop binge-watching her videos. ❤️
Some can hit stratospheric notes but are these high notes beautiful enough to please one's ears, reach deep in one's heart or soul like Lea does everytime she sings?
Nice musical reflection Duke. Cheers 😘
Truly indeed her name was in broadway....
Now i appreciate the song more, clearly understand the lyrics.
Maybe the best diction of any singer I've heard. Crystal clear!
Feels like the song turned into a disney song.. her magical voice is the best!
This is the first time that I hear the lyrics of this song. Crystal clear!
Salute to Lea Salonga,great performance always.
Her enunciation is perfect as always ♥
Alicia Keys ought to see this. :) I love them both but it's a big honor to hear your song out of the Lea Salonga's magical lips.
Wow just wow!!!! Crystal clear voice.
That pronunciation and enunciation!
Amazing voice!! But what's more amazing is how she is able to memorize all those lyricsss, without fumbling any of them??!!
She had a phographic memory. She can even memorized the lines of the other artist in her plays.
Tripped off here once again hahahha June 2019
Oh my God, that first New York gave me the chills and brought tears to my eyes. I must see her live someday.
True you did make it in New york lea and make it any where in the world Best Actress Tony awards in New York for your role as Kim in Ms Saigon
World class entertainer.
The best vioce from Lea incomparable.

Super galing ni Coach Lea. Nakakainlab po 😍😚
She absolutely KILLED this performance
When Princess Jasmine went to New York on red carpet ride so her adventure continues...
I'm loving her version of this song very well.. A big round of Applause for this one of the Favorite singer of mine...
everything is on fleek here, voice (well duh), makeup, outfit. love that her clothes is not looking so 'mom-ish' in this event.
Wow Ms Lea Salonga is so amazing her voice clear like a bell and i like her own version
Oh wow!!❤❤
Its so classy and jazzy..love it!!🤗
Ooh, New York
Ooh, New York
Grew up in a town
That is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud
There are sirens all around
And the streets are mean
If I could make it here
I could make it anywhere
That's what they say
Seeing my face in lights
Or my name in marquees
Found down on Broadway
Even if it ain't all it seems
I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I'm from
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
The big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York
On the avenue
There ain't never a curfew
Ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot
On the corner selling rock
Preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab
Takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger
For more than from an empty fridge
I'm going to make it by any means
I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I'm from
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
The big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams, all looking pretty
No place in the world that could compare
Put your lighters in the air
Everybody say yeah, yeah
In New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There's nothing you can't do
Now you're in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
The big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York
Is this even needed?
She owns and interprets the song so beautifully.
beautiful enterpretation great artist!
Oh may!!!!.... that was freaking awesome.... just wow!!! you nailed it ms Lea.
Epic what a voice, what a gift, what an incredible lady
Lea!!! What an awesome performance!
so wonderful....great artist
I just luv, love, labs this song.. Does not matter whether it's Alicia or Lea singing it. But I'm more hooked seeing/watching/hearing Ms./Mrs. Lea singing this song because I'll always like and singing along w/ this song eventhough I jumble/mix/missed parts of the song 😆😋😑👅🙆.. I'm in AWE watching her/u performed my all time and new fave such as Grenade, Hallelujah, The Climb, some of Lady Gaga's, Bisayan's, Sampaguitas? OPM (covers/revs?).. It's just so updated! Feels like I'm the only one outdated, hehehe! ; D 👯🙆🙈.. Lots of catching up to do. Where in the world was I?? 🙀😮😳😄😊☺️😛
I Love you LEA and you are the Legend ❤️
