NATALIE WEISS - Defying Gravity (Wicked) | London 2016

[@memorydrive9400]

I died when she did Glinda 😂

[@AriannaMae]

Right?! Best moment :)

[@reaganbrooke8578]

ME TOO IT’S WAS SO UNEXPECTED

[@seanclinch8336]

Same

[@Fynnie89]

Same xD that was spot on!

[@Laou41]

Even better than Glinda its Kristin Chenoweth impression haha

[@KatieBadger1]

The thing that impresses me most about your voice is how clear and in tune it is, especially live. I haven't heard too many covers better than yours, Natalie. Never stop singing!

[@MaiaMatiIda]

I AGREE!

[@LaurenMichele]

I could not agree more! She makes the high notes look effortless.

[@GarageStudio7]

2:36 "And nobody in all of London, no Wizard that there is or was-ondon" 😂 so much musicality that she had to rhyme...

[@MariosPOS]

Lmao

[@gabrielmorais7403]

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 that was terrific

[@DrugsAreBadMkay1211]

she has just the clearest tone and so much versatility, i don't even understand

[@reaganbrooke8578]

Demitri SAME LIKE HOW

[@samuelbrown112]

The fact that she never went further in Wicked than an Elphaba understudy is insane.She’s so incredible.

[@o-o-o-ozempic]

Just goes to show you how much talent is out there.

[@kittygeorge2074]

Just wow. That last riff. Brought tears.

[@adamG2001]

That “down” is the cure to everything!!!!!!! The tone and placement and everything is perfect

[@cloudambient]

That is the highest note I've ever heard thrown into the final riff! Natalie, if you're reading this, I got to meet you in the green room at North Shore Music Theatre before a performance of Les Miz on a night I sat in the orchestra, BIG fan here!!

[@chung2F5]

It's a G#5, also her mixed roof. I don't believe she has mixed higher than G#5.

[@cloudambient]

"mixed roof" ?

[@chung2F5]

accompanist603 Roof of her mix register i.e the highest note she has belted (she has belted G#5s multiple times before as well). She has yet to belt anything above that.

[@someday7333]

+chung2F5 That's not right, came to this performance from this video: /watch?v=sG9OSCATsh4 which shows she's demonstrated belting up to a Bb5

[@chung2F5]

Someday Which is why I said "I believe". I hadn't seen that video.

[@codyraystrimple5659]

I've heard basically every version of DG on KZbin. No ending riff has ever made my jaw drop and given me goose bumps until now. AMAZING!

[@julianemln3894]

"And nobody in all of London no wizard that there is or was-ondon" I died

[@BranFlores]

she actually cast a spell at 1:59 jajaja love her.

[@kcorona7715]

okay but how haven't you played Elphaba at least 4 times.

[@sheismymom]

because she can't act

[@iambroadwaytrash412]

Halsey Robert you're rude

[@AdamsplanetVlogs]

She understudied Elphaba in the 2nd national tour of Wicked.

[@tasha5951]

Watch her sing Lost In The Waves and then come back and tell me that she can't act!

[@anthonyvoiers8891]

I've always dreamt of hearing Natalie sing defying gravity 😱😱😱😍

[@jessicagold7640]

Ladies and gentleman, the next elphaba! I've been saying it for years! Wicked needs you Natalie!

[@lorenzlanfer7013]

Wow! Omg the ring😂😂😂 and that high G though! My fav riff for the end of Defying Gravity😍

[@mckenzieryin3340]

You have one of the most beautiful most calming voices I've ever heard❤️ I hope my voice progresses to be this good #goals

[@danoliverdesign]

I like that you laugh in parts and it makes you even more relatable.

[@KS-bk9nt]

her ring: *and if I'm flying solo, at least I'm flying free*

[@CDugan7]

Holy shit I did not expect to have an existential experience from a KZbin video tonight. Natalie you are the most insane vocalist I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.

[@kirstyforeman8258]

She just makes it look so easy cxx😭

[@jxmes_..5268]

I could so picture her as alpheba x

[@bodhi3888]

I don't know if you had a filter on this video, or if it was the camera or lighting, but it's beautiful

[@scottbw123]

haha when her ring fell off! So good/

[@lukea2895]

This is FLAWLESS😍😍 and that ending!!!

[@ededdeddy17]

3:00 could revive someone from the dead oh my gOD

[@SpyrooTUR2013]

LSAME

[@HoagiesTube]

[@MarcoBff]

KWEEEEN

[@Amzy2k9]

Why on earth has she never played Elphaba?! That was incredible!

[@ryanfaure3120]

She had tho 😍 she was an understudy in the 2nd national tour

[@broadwaybeat]

Did she ever go on for elphaba??

[@samisntalesbian2349]

STORYTIME: So I was eating a trail mix before starting this video, and there are different colored MnM's in the mix. At the beginning of the video I looked down into the trail mix and there were only green MnM's left. GREEN LIKE ALFABA! WTF

[@AstridFernandaintensity]

Imagine have Natalie as you music teacher

[@scorchingtea698]

Elphaba for the wicked movie? Yes please

[@emilycardona9242]

when I saw this, I dead ass freaked out.

[@Hey_Jamie]

FFS I thought my spirit animal was a unicorn eating tacos but I think I've been wrong my whole life 😩 BE MY FRAND GAHD

[@Hey_Jamie]

Five years later and that’s the most accurate comment I could have possibly left.

[@ivanwong6469]

[@a-bittersweet-tragedy0203]

[@bluejadeblue]

B L E S S S S S S T H I S

[@reaganbrooke8578]

How are her notes so clear I just don’t understand

[@HaydenPoe]

3:01 that moment you realize mitch grassi can do the same thing

[@adamdoherty1156]

Yeah i always look for a girl who can do the mitch riff and she can!! So can this girl kzbin.info/www/bejne/n4Haln2rhruZbc0

[@l.a.a.c2055]

Hayden Poe well, he actually uses a madre placed hv, while Natalie uses mixed voice and she actually supported that note

[@iAmMadeOfSoup]

She played Elphaba as understudy

[@DissertationDay]

Natalie won't respond to this comment :(

[@michoian]

DissertationDay you're right
