Kristin Chenoweth - Till There Was You

Exclusive performance of Till There Was You by Kristin Chenoweth.
The song is from Meredith Willson's The Music Man

[@laurelizabeth269]

I still think Kristin does the most heartfelt rendition of this song. She's so good at conveying the tones of old sadness and resignation mixed with new joy that I feel really define Marian's character. It never fails to tug at my heartstrings.

[@guysalzmann9302]

Nope. Barbara Cook- the Original Broadway.

[@janetflier6192]

@@guysalzmann9302. You are right!! Renée Fleming also does a great version of this song!

[@emileeacosta1945]

I seriously wish I could have Kristin Chenoweth's voice for a day...

[@Eiswirth1]

She gives me chills. Her talent is rare -- on a whole other level than most other singers/actresses. I adore her.

[@SuperLink517]

She's amazing. I friggin loved her in Pushing Daisies. They NEED to bring that show back.

[@Schrotter0512]

She doesn't only have a great voice but also a radiant charisma. She smiles and shines as if there was nothing easier in the world than singing this song!

[@jhernandez16]

Dang. FINALLY an AWESOME version of this song online. Gave me chills.

[@WmsonTree]

Kristin Chenoweth is musical perfection! Such great vocal range and emotion in her voice. A song has no greater friend than Kristin Chenoweth! In a word -- PRICELESS!

[@TheMarciaann]

Love the great big voice from this "little lady"...She's quite fantastic and this is a beautiful version of "Til There Was You" Thanks for posting.

[@sushigimme]

I loved her in Pushing Daisies! Who am I kidding, every character was so loveable in that show.

[@zelmanzelman]

I am an old fogy. I saw the original, and I have never heard this song sung better. This is as good as it gets. Thank you.

[@flyinghow]

Had to come over and get my breath of fresh air...Thank God for voices like Kristin's. She could sing the phone book and I would listen beginning to end. Brava!

[@TheShiksaGoddess]

Woah. Her phrasing is out of control good!

[@scottmathews3777]

That high note up in the stratosphere is proof that Kristin had opera training. Such an incredibly versatile voice.

[@arturoducati]

Have her sing opera then. She sucks singing this song.

[@fadhilramadhani1847]

@@arturoducati let's hear YOU sing it then

[@SingingPupRecords]

@@arturoducati omg, you really have no clue: Here's her singing opera & killing it. kzbin.info/www/bejne/fp-teoCJrpKias0

[@musicfanBRA]

and she does it with such ease.

[@LisaHawkinsHotJava]

It's hard to go wrong with a superb song! I think I've never heard a bad version of it but listening to Kristen Chenoweth is truly amazing!

[@manuelorozco7760]

The first time I heard it was Audra McDonald when she sang it at the 2011 Kennedy Center Honors in tribute to Barbara Cook.

[@maureen1938]

tHANK YOU for posting this sensational share. What a beautiful version of this lovely song. Kristin Chenoweth is fantastic. A real gem .

[@williamtorrey1246]

This wonderful standard has never been sung so eloquently by anyone else but Kristin. What a great voice and a lovely, talented, vocalist. Great!!!

[@HonJazzz]

A truly magnificent performance deserving of a standing ovation!

[@Cj-lineNyakonda]

There were bells on the hill But I never heard them ringing, No, I never heard them at all Till there was you. There were birds in the sky But I never saw them winging No, I never saw them at all Till there was you. And there was music, And there were wonderful roses, They tell me, In sweet fragrant meadows of dawn, and dew. There was love all around But I never heard it singing No, I never heard it at all Till there was you!

[@BJTangerine]

Wow, this was phenomenal! So much life in the singing

[@RoseBuddy929]

I still can't get over how amazing her vocal range is.

[@wickedphant0m]

Kristin has one of the most beautiful voices I've ever heard.

[@Xenomiggs]

I don't need to repeat it, but damn it, Kristin is a gift.

[@Eiswirth1]

Stunningly beautiful.

[@punkysk8er522]

i love this song sooooo much!!!!!!! Kristin sings it so beautifly!

[@Eiswirth1]

I adore her. She's got it all: great looks , unbelieveably beautiful voice, charm, comic timing... She's a national treasure!

[@mirellavictoria4909]

This is my favorite rendition as well

[@flyinghow]

She is beyond amazing. Beautiful voice.

[@00Kavon]

editing in footage of the music man was a nice touch, added to the nostalgia of this piece

[@lucianobezerra4380]

Probably the most touching rendition of Till there was you...Thank you !!!

[@98raja]

Amazing version

[@delauge]

absolutely wonderful

[@manuelorozco7760]

I don't want to offend someone who like me enjoyed the 2003 version of the Music Man but I think this was better than when Kristin did the song with Matthew Broderick in the movie. You Go Girl

[@Isildun9]

Honestly, my only complaint with the 2003 version, was Matthew Broderick. The fact that they felt he was the equal of Robert Preston, preposterous. Admittedly, I grew up with the Shirley Jones/Robert Preston version, so I am biased.

[@InklingStudio]

@@Isildun9 - The 1962 movie version is hard to beat. I love it. But I won't blame Matthew Broderick . He didn't cast the movie . A guy's gotta work , y'know ? A very talented man, but not right for this role at all. And , damn, who would want to follow up Robert Preston ?! (the whole 2003 version is pretty much a train wreck, imo) . Blame the casting director and the producers.

[@atchinierva]

What a great talent!

[@selfieweb01]

What have I been missing Kristin you sound wonderful Thank you

[@METALITHrevetments]

Magnificent!! Brava!!

[@gtrdoc911]

She does it in Bmajor. I just checked out the Shirley Jones version from the Music Man. That's in Dmajor; that's why this version sounds more mellow. McCartney sang it in Fmajor. If you're interested, check out my Beatles tutorial on this song in which I go over all the chords and George's awesome solo.

[@ConservativeAnthem]

Spectacular!

[@mte4506]

A beautiful interpretation sung beautifully.... the amazing Kristen Chenowith.

[@12jenny]

i love her voice it so amazing

[@adriov6667]

PERFECTION! That's the only way to describe this

[@brunobaritono]

Kristin Chenowith IS one of the greatest broadway stars ever. Make some more albums for us please Ms Chenowith, maybe a DVD too. AND come to Australia and give some concerts here please. And great to see you unashamed about your faith.

For this song, in this instance, in this moment I will agree with you. Right now the tears are stilling falling.

The Tony Awards should Kristen, Shirley Jones and Barbara Cooke all sing this wonderful song together.It would be a magic moment!

[@adamgriffith4799]

[@rousingtherabble]

Superlative rendition!

[@jackhigginsqwerty]

awesome! I have just found the new version of the music man. I found if hard to believe that she could sing that well - till I found this clip and realised she was actually singing (not lip sync) Thanks for posting!

[@bastrop78418]

wow, good stuff

[@waynewoolworth9469]

Kristen Chenoweth is truly amazing a very lovely lady

[@aa4285]

Please remember that this is a video upload. The sync may be off from the video track to the audio track. That is where the slight hesitation may be in the video. I had the opportunity to hear her live when she was in the Lincoln Center production of Candide back in 2005. Trust me she is the real thing.

[@CarlieSheehan]

there she really does!

[@scrttn]

Did you know that she actually takes time for her fans? She'll send us personalized stuff even when we don't ask for it. She tears up every time a fan says something nice. Have you seen some of her interviews? Or read her book? She's very humble; however, she knows that she's good. I mean, her voice can do just about anything. There will always be people who disagree but I hope that you might check out some more stuff on her because I think she's amazing. I'm proud to call myself a fan. :)

[@thesingingtwins]

OMG! She is amazing! I watched her in this play like 10 times already because I have to practice! My twin sister and I both got the leads for our school play of the Music Man. OMG and the note at 2:23-2:26 gave me goose bumps! She's GREAT! -Annie *thesingingtwins*
