I have yet to see someone does that G5 Belt like her in the climax of the song out of all the different singers that attempted this song. Julia is the BEST.
It is a shame that she never really got the recognition she deserves. She is such a talent and her voice might not be the highest, or most powerful voice out there, but her emotions and her playfulness she puts into every role is on a different level . Her version of Elphaba in Wicked is still the best version out there. And lets not even start talking about The Wild party where she just blows everybody away.
Her voice is hugely powerful. This is a rehearsal performance, so she's not on mic. Even so, you can still hear 95% of her voice and lyrics with the orchestra behind her while wearing no mic. I'd say that's a pretty big voice.
I worked on "Ragtime" in North Carolina with Julia as "Mother" -- and her "Back to Before" was out. of. this. world. You can still find it lurking around here; it gives me chills!
It's been 84 years and I'm still mad we don't have a properly recorded version of this. I don't have the authority to say it's the best version of the song, but it's my favorite. Julia is incredible and SO underrated.
@Marcus Vincent She has a solo album called "I'm Not Waiting", it's fantastic! She is of course also on the cast album for the Andrew Lippa "Wild Party", in which she starred as Queenie in its original Off-Broadway run, and she's incredible on that! Definitely check those out :)
I've watch this many times and all the other Nobody's Side videos out there. Julia's version is the absolute best and this is just a rehearsal, which I think is actually better than her performance version. Her acting is perfect. She is right into it from beginning to end. You can feel the sexuality of the song. The simple on-beat hair flip at 2:37 is sublime.
Loved that hair flip and the hand move from "take a little love where you can" and pretty much everything about this performance. She is brilliant! I also agree that this was better than the actual performance although her actual performance was excellent too.
Except for that wailing at the very end this is by far the best performance I've heard since Elaine Page. Very emotional and love the body language. Cudos!
@@Sofi-ji4jl I don't think he means the G5. That's fantastic and right on pitch. It's her line at 3:01 near the end. It's an improvisation she chose that doesn't really work. It sounds shrieking and flat. Other than that single phrase, the rest of the performance is stellar.

shes far better than Idina Menzel sometimes I wonder how some get that fame and others no....

Oh, my dear, dear, dear Julia...WHEN will you truly get the recognition you deserve?!!? #ObsessedWithThis

I was thinking it was better also. She's going all out, which she didn't get to do a lot. I was a fan and now I'm not sure what I am seeing this LOL
Agreed one hundred percent. This is better than the real performance.

Hands down...best Version of the Song...acting choices and vocals are sublime!
Still THE best version of this song!
Holy mackerel, she crushes it! What a talent!
Insanely fabulous! THAT is how to sing this!
Her vocals and acting are on point. I think this is one of my favorites!
She sings and acts the hell out of this. Just Wow!
Julia Murney is FANTASTIC ALWAYS!
i love the way she sings this
God almighty that's a delicious sound! Is there anything this lady cannot sing!?
Oh my dear...this is very very good. Thank you youtube to bring this to me...as very random.
I dunno about you but I couldn't sing that well after a kiss from Adam Pascal....LOLLLL
secindladi this comment just won the interweb for me
I thought I was a Julia fan before.
Gawd dress rehearsal magik! Madame your rendition of this is wonderful!
I LOVE this!
Julia said she’s not a riffer, but did this!
2:24 what the HECK WHERE DID THAT COME FROM
RIGHT
Idina should have watched this several times before agreeing to sing that part in London
Idina did beyond awesome, mate. BEYOND awesome.
Holy chocolate starfish, Batman. Brilliant.
Lovely voice
This is so amazing... I peed a little
NO BODY sings this better than Julia, NO Body, she has the acting DOWN.
Truth.
Hanne Clausen maybe he had bad breathe so she got mad and started singing this. Lol
OW! 2:27-2:48!! I am flying, this is so good!
Why isn't this whole concert available? Everything I've seen from it is phenomenal.
Wish the audio was a little cleaner. But she is fantastic.
Except for that wailing at the very end this is by far the best performance I've heard since Elaine Page. Very emotional and love the body language. Cudos!
It wasn't a wail, it was a high G5 Chest Belt, which is incredibly hard to do and she nailed it.

Whose the fit guy conducting :0
SO FAST. Woof...
From the vocal chords
😂 lol the original cast was way better.
Julia Murney better
@@Potato-so6zr Sounds like she gargling marbles. Elaine Paige actually owned this.
This is Jessica Vosk, not Julia Murney.
No it’s Julia
I have no idea who Jessica Vosk is. This is definitely Julia Murney.
@@L1623VP Jessica Vosk is amazing. She’s friends with Julia Murney.
Hands down...best Version of the Song...acting choices and vocals are sublime!
