      It's kinda crazy, she's worked to change her accent when singing (notice how the harshness of her English accent is gone and she sounds more "American", but this is also from using healthier technique) but now it's to the point where she simply sounds like a completely different person

    I remember, about 10 years ago, I heard Samantha sing "Defying Gravity" and thought, "She has to play Elphaba in the _Wicked_ movie", and now she's playing Elsa. Samantha's always incredible, but she's particularly good at playing characters originated by Idina.

    I'm sorry but whoever tuned her voice during this performance did a horrible job. They made her sound so autotuned and it doesn't do her voice justice. I saw her back in Oliver in 2013 and even then when she was still quite young for an actress that was doing so well she had so much power in her voice. It sounds too artificial, I can't wait to hear a version of her live, I'm sure it'll sound way better!

Its the same as the movie too, I think it's just the timbre of her voice that sounds different. Like how Seth MacFarlane singing a D4 as Stan Smith sounds incredibly low but as Roger sounds almost female lol
