[@younghusband70]

Lea never fails to.amaze me everytime. Her Saigon training under Michel Schonberg paid off, thus singing while seated is a piece of cake for her.

[@lovelychenaparungao865]

miggy elizondo h

[@parakitos]

No doubt she had a great experience during Miss Saigon but I'm pretty sure she's amazing because of the effort she puts in as a vocalist :D She sets the bar and she meets it.

[@NYCER4LIFE]

Salonga damaged her voice during her run in the West End premiere of “Miss Saigon” in 1989-1990 and required vocal rest and rehabilitation. I believe she was out of the show for about 3-4 weeks and in her absence, Monique Wilson and Jenine Desiderio alternated as Kim. Major props go to Salonga’s singing teacher Mary Hammond for helping Salonga rebuild her singing voice from the ground up by studying and learning bel canto vocal technique.

[@eustacehendrix9659]

Filipino singers are trained so they can sing seated. Some even trained while lying down, on a treadmill or neck deep underwater. You can search for Wish Bus videos where they sing live for a radio station whilst inside a bus. Lea did musical theatre as early as 7 years old so singing whilst seated is something she can do even before Miss Saigon.

[@chadcovers1724]

yeah she can belt while sitting and back bended in miss saigon too. hehe

[@giggleweed]

I feel like this is one of the few performances josh actually got to belt his vocals out at full power because lea is amazing just always does regardless of who she’s singing with lol. Fucking fantastic.

[@coryburns9161]

Yeah I had no idea Josh was this good much respect to him I hope the best for him

[@brickzbrix4136]

After this performance, I wanted to see Lea play as Christine Daae in Phantom of the opera

[@phamapollo3175]

As much as I love Lea, I don't think she would make a good Christine due to the difference in style and technique

[@TristanandIsolt]

@@phamapollo3175 I'm less concerned with Style and Technique than age. 48 doesn't work for playing 18 unless you're Ellen Green in Little Shop of Horrors.

[@droopypie]

She's too old for that role

[@kingofmeereen]

She doesn’t have the training for Christine. Love her tho.

[@droopypie]

She could have been Christine when she did Miss Saigon, but Andrew Lloyd Webber was most likely NOT looking at any Asian Christines since he wrote this musical for his wife/muse at the time Sarah Brightman

Josh can blend with anyone. I can't wait to hear this!

[@ladyearin]

It's refreshing to finally hear someone not only singing amazingly but also nailing the italian part. Sometime it's just frustrating hearing some wannabies opera singer just throwing some bad pronunciation and some shaky notes in some talent show. Here you have the perfect example of real passionate professional who have dedicated their studies and suols to the Music. Bravi, really well done

[@kellymanas6133]

[@juvilgotel4722]

@@kellymanas6133 im sorry. i disagree.

[@eustacehendrix9659]

Contestants in talent shows don't have the luxury of grabbing a native italian to coach them. Still they loved the song enough for them to try a language they totally don't understand-- and it frustrates you? Also, it's ironic when you judge others for not nailing italian when your english also needs more work.
