She's one of the only people who could sing with any accuracy that style of musical and show tune with the classical polish that the mid 20th century sought. She's a proper gem.

[@ohmusicsweetmusic]

nice... i'm a new fan!

[@witavorr]

Full agreement! Well said.

[@thiliniwish19]

true!!

[@clevelandkitty1298]

Wow! May be the only non-Julie version I approve of.

[@199660Maria]

Why did they chose Carrie Underwood in the first place again?? i mean... we have Sierra... and she's perfect!

[@thewoodchuck1865]

Because she's more famous. That's all.

[@hugh0221]

Has Sierra been not famous then? I mean, she was Christine and Ariel!

IIRC this song got cut from the live TV version.

To all of those Carrie Underwood worshippers, this is how it is REALLY done.

[@annas.1104]

Amen! Carrie was good at singing, but her acting was lifeless. I hate saying that, because I really love Carrie Underwood, but there are things that you are meant to do and things that you are not. She has natural talent for singing, just not acting.

[@fcturner]

I do enjoy true worship sung by Carrie though 😊. You know, the Jesus-loves-us-and-is-totally-awesome kind of worship.

[@07VATANDAS]

I mean sierra is the perfect singer for the sound of music other than Julie. But Carrie really sucked u know

[@leimiralles8126]

She's like the Meryl Streep of Broadway. She could play Batman and she'd still be perfect for that role.

This is like the only person who is second to Julie

[@abigguitar]

I have to give Sierra props for singing the entire song just as it was in the film and in the same key. That is, compared to that chopped up version sung by Connie Fisher in the 2006 revival. I'm never a fan of chopping up and shortening songs for musical revivals.

[@christianawagner2438]

[@squeakybeak7832]

+Bex S. Yes! Why, oh why?

[@jadynbeech338]

I have to think it's because if her popularity People see Carrie they want to see the original (if they haven't already) the like the original they want more It opens the theater world to the general public and gives them a sense of connection they wouldn't find otherwise Like how Hamilton invited the rap community into theater I say this from somewhat of an outside view i don't think the Theater Kids would call me one but Sound of Music and Dear Evan Hansen are probably my two favorite I feel like that's useless information Case in point Carrie Underwood was chosen for her popularity

[@aangelinajoliee]

Right? I’m watching the sound of musical in school right now would much rather see her.

[@muratcomez5939]

What will this day be like? I wonder. What will my future be? I wonder. It could be so exciting, To be out in the world, To be free! My heart should be wildly rejoicing. Oh, what's the matter with me? I've always longed for adventure, To do the things I've never dared. Now here I'm facing adventure Then why am I so scared? A captain with seven children What's so fearsome about that? Oh, I must stop these doubts, All these worries. If I don't I just know I'll turn back! I must dream of the things I am seeking. I am seeking the courage I lack. The courage to serve them with reliance, Face my mistakes without defiance. Show them I'm worthy And while I show them I'll show me! So, let them bring on all their problems, I'll do better than my best. I have confidence They'll put me to the test! But I'll make them see I have confidence in me. Somehow I will impress them. I will be firm, but kind. And all those children Heaven bless them They will look up to me And mind me! With each step I am more certain, Everything will turn out fine. I have confidence, The world can all be mine! They'll have to agree I have confidence in me. I have confidence in sunshine, I have confidence in rain. I have confidence that spring will come again! Besides what you see I have confidence in me. Strength doesn't lie in numbers. Strength doesn't lie in wealth, Strength lies in nights of peaceful slumbers, When you wake up, wake up! It's healthy! All I trust I leave my heart to, All I trust becomes my own! I have confidence in confidence alone. I have confidence in confidence alone! Besides, which you see, I have confidence in me!

[@esteehanvey5647]

[@rchumphries13]

You know sometimes whenever I am watching a video of something Sierra Boggess is singing and they are just like why is it a different key? Why is she belting the entire thing? Why this, why that. It just gets on nerves when people do this because every performer has his or her own way of singing things. A lit of people are like well Christine in Phantom isn't a belting role. So what... Sierra Boggess made it into a belting role. Or when people are like oh my gosh not the key as the original I don't like it. I hate it when people do that. Like with Phantom, Ramin Karimloo had to have the key changed because it fit his range better than the original key that Crawford sang. RANT OVER

[@zagabi6177]

"Why do people have a different opinion from me? WAHHH!!"

[@thedandomaster]

[@matthewtzivakis9567]

What did Ramin have changed? because I thought it was all the original keys and nothing was changed. The only one I know of is think of me. The original goes from D Major to Eb Major, however the 25th anniversary moves from D Major to F Major.

La soprano Sierra Boggess interpreta una de las selecciones más emotivas de "La Novicia Rebelde" de Richard Rodgers y Oscar Hammerstein II, "Tengo confianza en mí" que fuera interpretada en la película de 1964 por Julie Andrews; debo decir que Sierra la canta con la misma emoción y entrega de su antecesora en el tiempo.

Madeline Ashton Why? #Fake

[@MadelineAshton]

I'm not entirely sure, but maybe she was trying to sing it like Julie Andrews.

[@rchumphries13]

Eddie Going Singing in a different accent gives the song character. Also, some or most, but not all, sopranos have the tendency to sing with an accent because a soprano has to open their vowels more than an alto would. And opening your vowels more gives a person that accent.
