A true goddess! Maybe the best version of Still Hurting. There's another clip of Lea rehearsing this and she does it better in rehearsal than most do it in actual performance. We saw her in the the filmed presentation of Allegiance and Lea, after all these years of performing has lost nothing off her vocal fastball. She can still bring it as well as anyone.

Uh ...no, she's very much a mezzo. A lyric soprano's voice would get stronger as it ascends, not thinner. Her blend is the best I've ever heard: like you cannot tell when she switches between chest and head because it's all blend. I saw her in 1991 and even at like 21, she could command a stage with her voice and her presence and carry a show. She's an absolute gift to the Broadway community. 🙏🏻

So I have a bizarrely random idea for a fancast for The Last Five Years, but I actually think it would work really well. Lea Salonga as Cathy and, hear me out………Jason Alexander as Jamie. I know he's a bit old for the role, but he's a phenomenal singer and when I first saw this play, I always thought a young Jason would be absolutely perfect for the show. Don't deny that he would be great (and obviously I don't need to convince anyone of Lea's amazingness). I just think that if they ever did something akin to a concert show, they should hire these two.

Jamie is over and Jamie is gone Jamie's decided it's time to move on Jamie has new dreams he's building upon And I'm still hurting Jamie arrived at the end of the line Jamie's convinced that the problems are mine Jamie is probably feeling just fine And I'm still hurting What about lies, Jamie? What about things That you swore to be true What about you, Jamie What about you Jamie is sure something wonderful died Jamie decides it's his right to decide Jamie's got secrets he doesn't confide And I'm still hurting Go and hide and run away Run away, run and find something better Go and ride the sun away Run away like it's simple Like it's right... Give me a day, Jamie Bring back the lies Hang them back on the wall Maybe I'd see How you could be So certain that we Had no chance at all Jamie is over and where can I turn? Covered with scars I did nothing to earn Maybe there's somewhere a lesson to learn But that wouldn't change the fact That wouldn't speed the time Once the foundation's cracked And I'm Still hurting
