Idina Menzel - "I'll Cover You"

I did not record this, so I am not sure of the date
Idina Menzel sings "I'll Cover You" from RENT - a song she said she'd always loved and had wanted to sing, but couldn't, seeing as how it was Jesse and Wilson's (Collins and Angel's) song - at a concert.

She really needs to go back and re-record all of her favorite songs from her shows in her own style. She did an incredible new Defying Gravity, but I want more like this.

This song is the most beautiful love song ever written. Great acoustic with Idinas voice.

I'll Cover You is my absulote favorite song of Rent. And usually it's hard for me to like the other version of this song unless it's sung by Wilson and Jesse. But oh dear God I seriously looovvveeee this version!! Idina is the best!!

[@maaanda]

I always wished she would sing this.. amazing.

[@frenchtoast013]

[@UnsusViolet]

[@flowerpower70]

[@oinkmooxxrikki]

[@luvjoi0817]

DAMN! She is so freakin' amazing.

[@1985Hannahbanana]

wow she did really good!

[@dorkrockcorkrod]

one of my favorite videos on YOuTube

[@painefan22]

This is amazing! She is amazing!!

[@ARandomWorld]

This is so sweet and nice. A good middle between the the original and the reprise of the song.

[@flowerpower70]

Please keep in mind that this wasn't recorded professionally. It was done with a handheld recorder or by a camera. So of course the sound quality won't be the greatest. And if you don't find her amazing that's fine. I respect your opinion. So long as you respect mine and everyone else's who's commented on this video saying that she is.

[@NineOliveira]

She's great!!!

[@flowerpower70]

If I can find the CD it's on (I have like five CDs with Idina's concert audio on them randomly, lol), then I will. :)

[@drygravity795]

i love her version

[@riccardobruero]

Wonderful!

[@RizzaCabrera]

hurrah!

[@trinity1728]

WICKED!!!!! luv her!!

[@girlsrulz44]

she is amzing sing this as well

[@kevinoes]

i still love this but does anyone have a video/audio of when she did it at the Katrina benefit concert in September 2005. It was so beautiful.

[@ALYSSZ]

That's a REALLY good one! I think it would be great to hear it anyway ^^ She must be able to reach the notes, but I don't think that's gonna be a bigbigbig problem (:

[@laufernandez13]

I fucking love her!

[@flowerpower70]

Unfortunately, it's not. :( She sang this for a concert.

[@DrEaMsOfAnOvEl]

This would actually make a very nice contemporary pop/folk recording, though it doesn't necessarily have to be by her. I think it'd sound absolutely fantastic if recorded acoustic, like in this performance (without the crappy sound).

[@motownazn]

out of all of those pictures, the one at 1:35 stuck out the most to me. I'm not why, though. It repeats like most of the pictures, of course.

[@omglolwtfjk]

i wish i knew the chords for this lolz..

[@JayhawkJazzy]

yeah, me too, haha

[@JustDANCE9506]

do you have an mp3 of this?

[@tonigke]

@taeliah01 not really !!!

[@taeliah01]

She looks like Despina Vandi.

[@RobZiak]

freakishly large jawbone at :5

[@taeliah01]

Everyone's a comedian...

[@speedysweetheartflamewolf6]

Its okay...but she keeps topping out the recorder

[@Uktrayf]

no.
