    Whoever did the sound for this needs sacking! Amber is an amazing vocalist and they did not do her justice with that awful echo.

    ONCE AGAIN, Amber Riley is forgetting she's human! I saw a video here called 'Times Amber Riley Forgot She's Human'. These were when she was on Glee. She's made me cry so much from her "forgetting" I should be dehydrated! But she's just amazing, a real star 🤩

  • @leonardo_Fabri
    @leonardo_Fabri Před 5 lety +193

    This version of "Listen" makes so much more sense! I mean, I know the original one was made up to the film and to promote a Beyoncé' single, but the new lyrics is so girl power and sisterhood that makes total sense!

      I totally agree. I honestly didn't feel that much sympathy for Deena when watching the film. That changed after I saw a great live production of "Dreamgirls" (the actress I saw really brought the character to life). Although "Listen" isn't in the musical, this performance adds so much to her character as well.

    • @diannafagan9477
      @diannafagan9477 Před 6 lety +5

      I agree. The piano is taking all the credit he needs to be background vocals. Not fight with amber for the spotlight

  • @raaid22
    @raaid22 Před 3 lety +18

    first, they sound great.
    however, it bugs me that only the original cast seems to understand there should be a huge contrast from Deena to effie. effie is the voice and Deena is the whole package. deenas voice should be light and pop and shouldn't rival effie's. when deena is cast as great singer the plot starts to crumble. deena can't sing like effie which is why it's such an injustice effie gets sidelined.

    • @Musicblue22
      @Musicblue22 Před 3 lety +6

      Exactly alot of these recent productions cast actresses to follow Beyonce's portrayal rather than follow the original characterisation of Deena who is fashioned after Diana Ross.

  • @lonellfletcher
    @lonellfletcher Před 5 lety +2

    I have never been a fan of Listen. The original solo I thought was too contemporary for the period score, then the first version of the duet just didn’t sell me. But now we have this new, reorchestrated version and it is perfection!!!!! This is a showstopper to rival AIATYING. Just epic and wonderful and Amber and Lissi performed it perfectly. Love!!!!!

    que versão é essa de listen?

  • @ZoraTheberge
    @ZoraTheberge Před 6 lety +50

    The idea of Listen as a duet takes away Deena's agency, in a way. In the film, she leaves on her own terms, but in this production it's because Effie helped her make up her mind. (It also doesn't help that the actress plays her as pretty helpless. But to be fair, Deena's agency didn't exist really before Beyoncé took the role). With this, they're trying to fit a round peg into a square hole. A duet between Deena and Effie makes sense, and so does putting in a popular song from the film. But Listen isn't a duet. To tell someone "Listen" is pretty commanding and when she's asking for forgiveness, it looses that. If you're going to try to put Listen into Dreamgirls, it should be Deena's solo, as it was written. I wish the song was presented as the opposite of And I Am Telling You and staged as such. Deena is now where Effie was and I wish we could see that more played out.

      bryands86 well, the song was written for Beyoncé to have in the film. Clearly they adapted the song for this production. That's all well and good, however, I don't like it. That song is so iconic; everyone knows the lyrics. Also, if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Just my two cents.

    Simon Truly made a mistake...Listen to Amber, The Belt,head voice just stunning and gorgeous.I had the privilege of doing Dream Girls at the PapperMill Playhouse with Sharon Wilkins as Effie , and yes the fierce Sondra Bonita has her understudy.Those that know The haves and had Not, the wife yes Chaul she was deana .Cannot forget the Mr.White
    The cast was major...
