[@T.016]

I know it's not what you're talking abt but lea has actually done this song live! You can find it here on KZbin!

[@sarahm9517]

As someone who recently saw Lea in Funny Girl on Broadway from center orchestra, I'll just say that this cover is good, edging on great, but Lea's rendition now is magnificent. Her voice and acting have matured so much. As Kurt always said, "she may be difficult, but boy can she sing." She got multiple standing ovations before intermission.

[@whitneyblythe8652]

She did don’t rain on my parade live for one of the Tony awards! Not sure which year but you can see how she does it if you look it up!

[@angeliquemariel2916]

YESSS I absolutely love that performance!!😊💖💖 Lea sounds a lot more mature and her voice has tremendously improved!!

[@T.016]

YES ABSOLUTELY

[@PS-DLMA]

And she perches by Jonathon Groff

[@crncerencrn]

@@angeliquemariel2916 didn't you guys think that her voice was kinda late from melody? i thought about this first actually

[@swiftievich]

mercedes was originally doing the solo but their setlist got stolen so they had to do something quick and rachel was the only one with something fully prepared so she had to do the solo. but i agree, it is always only rachel ( aside from santana once ) who does the solos. literally 😭

[@camillaarauna5334]

She was the star of the show, people liking it ou not. So she would always get the solos.

[@DatVideoDoe]

Yeah, not sure how you can do watch parties, have seen this episode and not know exactly why Rachel is performing a solo.

[@swiftievich]

@@camillaarauna5334 though this is true she got the solo and duets. it gets repetitive and i know she’s the star and most dedicated but it’s good to mix it up especially if one gets solo and a different gets duets etc

[@Gr8guy01]

@@swiftievich I might be wrong but I think for the competitions there was either a solo or duet. They made her do most of these as she was regarded as the best singer in the show. If it was both a solo and a duet in the same competition then she probably would have just done the solo.

[@GA-fn8hr]

@@swiftievich they all got spotlight moments but people are so obsessed with competition solos but they had context for her solo. People even b^tched about it here and it was their first competition.

[@malikahumad]

I just realized the video was in a higher key…that lets you know that I’ve watched Glee WAAYYY TOO MANY TIMES😂🤭☕️

[@mhartm93]

0:45 I had no idea what this song was and then after watching Glee, I watched Funny Girl I realized where the song came from.

[@phantomquartz0586]

You should react to her singing To Love You More by Celine Dion

[@anabella-sa]

PLEASE

[@daianeobolari]

YEEEESSSS

[@goeltrolden]

Literally my favourite Rachel solo

[@jonathonherrera2963]

This was the first song I heard on Glee! I remember being blown away and was instantly hooked into the show! #Gleekforlife

[@johnbuchanan7676]

If you watched the show, sue leaked their set list to the competition. So they asked her to save their butts at the last minute with her solo. They didn’t have time to prepare a way to do background and such

[@malikahumad]

And Santana/Naya Rivera R. I. P💙 did AMAZINGLY BEAUTIFUL on her version of the song it’s just immaculate

[@michelrodrigues5686]

Nope

[@becamargo1697]

I get chills everytime I watch this performance when the group enters

[@JuanSilva-im8ve]

Audrey, consider react to the full versions of Somebody To Love(Queen cover) or Start Me Up/Livin' On A Prayer, covers by Glee, they are amazing. (If you agree with me, thumbs up for her to see it, please/ Se você concorda comigo deixa o jóia no comentário para ir ficando em destaque pra ela)

[@memory2085]

she saw that. check her "watch party" full episode

[@sharongaskell]

Start me up was a revelation..they rocked!

[@danieller.2067]

I love everybody else coming when she say "I'll march my band out"

[@victoriajohnson9996]

you should totally react to ‘at the ballet’ it really showcases naya, lea and chris’s vocals… and nayas belt is amazing near the end

[@soph4850]

Yeasss

[@WinnyFoster]

I wish youd react to some of the videos of her singing live. Theres lots of great ones from the LMDC tour (with darren) and her own tours. This song included. Those videos are more representative of Lea singing naturally than the glee recordings where shes singing as Rachel.

[@GA-fn8hr]

Right nearly every time she does a song by Lea she asked how Lea sings as Lea.

[@toniharris2143]

There is several videos from her shows last month. My Man kzbin.info/www/bejne/rH-qpJKKmNp5o5I . From her ForEver album but live kzbin.info/www/bejne/iHyndKCjr5pjopY

[@dankgymrat]

i think the competition in the show has a category of a solo. they have 3 numbers to perform and 1 of the numbers need to be a solo, if i remember correctly.

[@cheriprice6992]

You know the show was about her. That’s why she had most solos. That’s the rules

[@Leighanne37]

They had their song selections stolen by Sue .. and so they had to come up with this one their own Mr Schue wasn’t there so Finn took the lead and they followed up the Funny Girl song with a group number . They gave Rachel the song because they knew she could nail it little rehearsal

[@tiffanyp5781]

I liked Naya’s version better….. the whole package, she was so underrated on this show. Santana’s voice was thicker, fuller, more resonant and just as show stopping as Lea. Lea is good but her Rachel Berry voice seems almost shrill sometimes. Naya was just amazing.

[@theevilqueenreadstoo]

Your laugh scared me! xD

[@fenellahenderson-zuel3993]

They literally explain in the episode that the set list was stolen so they had to create a show last minute, so they choreographed one group number and gave Rachel a solo because they knew she didn't need to rehearse it...

[@rachelhalsey2726]

This song is the first solo before they start their performance as a group

[@KS-xk2so]

The format of the contest in this episode was a solo, then 2 group numbers. That's why she's completely alone for this number.

[@sovak75]

There are typically three songs in a competition like this, one of them is a solo (usually Rachel) or Duet (Usually Rachel and Finn but once was Quinn and Sam). Also, this performances was done on fit fly when Sue gave their set list to the competing groups and they were third so they had like an hour to come up with a totally new set list.

[@Javi-hr1sl]

you HAVE to react to Lea singing “My Man”, a cultural reset

[@amariebloom]

[@gorgeouspasin1721]

Have you ever watched her live performance Tony Award 2010 and her concert in 2018? 🤩🤩 In real life, she still squeaking. But more growling.

[@BethMDowney]

There's a few of Lea singing as Lea (it's actually fun to listen to her growth over the years): 64th Tony Awards (I want to say 2010?): kzbin.info/www/bejne/fHnXXoCPadKMrcU 2017 ElsieFest: kzbin.info/www/bejne/m2OQi3yPpsZlbJI 2018 LMDC Tour: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aYbWkHmfnqmVhKM

[@cair4742]

One of her patrons should request "If I Were a Boy" or "Counting Stars/Mr. Roboto" so Audrey can see Alex Newell and Skylar Astin in Glee

[@misspelledtea]

6:34 i don’t believe the glee club knows the song because throughout the show they let us know the only rachel and kurt are interested in broadway and musical theatre. also this song was a last minute decision

[@NawiTheCore]

You should also react to the live performance of this song at the Tony Awards. She sang it very differently, and she didn't do those squaks you mentioned.

[@nevnightmares]

The performance is sped up so the last note sounds shorter, and therefore everything it's also higher in pitch

[@meganvickers]

She sung it at the tony awards one year as lea michelle

[@jessemiqueas1501]

Lea is amazing ❤️ I love her! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@Soffsvillatoro]

I've had the pleasure of listening to her sing this live many times and each time is AMAZING!!! You should listen to DROMP from her Christmas show! That has by far been her best! She sang My Man recently in her last three shows which I know is not in the musical but my god! HER VOCALS!

[@taseanblount772]

in the episode they didn't prepare this, they set list was stolen and rachel was the only one prepared so they basically winged this.

[@sofiagleek8319]

Contexto* Sue Sylvester les pasó las canciones de New Direction a la competencia, entonces New Direction saco está presentación en el momento. Es por eso que Rachel hace el solo, cuando originalmente el solo era de Mercedes.

[@anabella-sa]

On Glee, the competition were always divided into a solo/duet number and then the group number. I truly don’t know how it’s on a real show choir competition though. PS. Please react to more Lea (and not only on Glee!)

[@carolinalins]

React to her at the tonys!! She sang as Lea, was incredible

[@lol-uz7bl]

always loved her version

[@24lizliz24]

Saw her and Darren in concert a few years ago and she did this song. It was SO good, she's just so insanely talented.

[@MCMNasty2]

I know there are a lot of people that dislike her but this moment right here is proof positive that she can sing her face off. May not be everything in life but she’s got talent; no doubt.

[@labrandashelton8565]

She does Funny Girl songs in the later season that are incredible. Not to mention the duets between her and Santana in the later seasons like Brave. Ugh so good.

[@lindyramdass1262]

She also performed this song at the Tony Awards one yr. You should do a reaction to that as well.

[@kcrose2338]

although i do not support lea michele as a person, seeing this in person will possibly be a core memory for me

[@montanarose-sings]

I'm curious why you think the last note was shorter on the show? I've sung this dozens and dozens of times with instrumental tracks from both the film and from Glee, and they're the same amount of bars lol. I even checked youtube videos of both, and it's the same. I think the video you were watching might have been slightly sped up, maybe that's why it seemed shorter? (It might also be why Rachel's voice sounds slightly higher pitched than usual)

[@CP-mb3sn]

I assumed it was a reference to the cut song, rather than the note.

[@montanarose-sings]

@@CP-mb3sn That would be even weirder, considering the only thing they actually cut out of this version is a small instrumental section right before the end that isn't included on any of the performance tracks and would have been super awkward at the climax of a live performance lol. I'm pretty sure she was talking about the note bc no one ever even mentions that instrumental section (it's just used while Fanny is getting on the tugboat lol) but I could be wrong.

[@larissacury7714]

Lea has performed Don't Rain on My Parade at the Tony's! Check it out! ;)

[@samairataylor7445]

you should react to her singing "My Man" and "Cry" sooo too good

[@luismigueloliveira7342]

You should react to Glee's Anything Goes/Anything You Can Do performance! Seeing you talk about how they should've done background vocals made me remember it. It's amazing and it's sung by the guest star Lindsay Pearce who just played Elphaba so u gonna love it

[@andreajancickova7256]

I'm asking for a reaction to the song Without You by Rachel

[@angeliquemariel2916]

I LOVE, LOVE this video and you and Lea Michele!! Lea sounds fantastic in this version of Don’t Rain On My Parade, however I like her renditions she did on tour with Darren Criss much better, GO LEA!!😊💖👏🏻👏🏻

[@BriannaAlexis709]

There is actually a video of her performing this at an awards show as herself!!! Check it out!

[@E_btsot798]

don't rain on my parade the glee version is one of my favorite songs to just belt and not care if i'm hitting the notes or not!

[@squidboitoys]

There’s a video where she sings it live. It’s pretty good.

[@tigercher93]

Would love for you to react to her version of My Man or who are you now

[@SongsFromASuitcase]

My Man reaction is already available on my Patreon www.Patreon.com/SongsFromASuitcase

[@Anastasia-ro3oi]

People get mad Rachel gets solo but let's be honest the show was created around her shes the main person ofc she'll get the solo

[@jennym2276]

Rachel is doing the Barbara Streisand character of Fanny Brice. Would be interested in seeing Lea do Lea Michelle's Fanny Brice

[@aruna3621]

you should watch her live performance at the Tony awards with Don't rain on my parade its amazing

[@lovepanic2738]

Her voice sounded great but unfortunately she was off time with a lot of it. She has done it a bunch since then on her tours and always sounds fantastic.

[@melaniemallozzi3851]

Amazing

[@soph4850]

I’ve kept myself awake until 1am so I can watch this the second it airs

[@olyvera1424]

Please react to Glee - Rolling in the deep

[@nnng9]

hi!! just for curiosity, is the song pitched up for copyright reasons? because it is supposed to be on a lower tone

[@LinneaAnn01]

I kind of want to see you react to songs from Glee the concert movie. Because she sang this as Rachel live.

[@memory2085]

why... you already saw that episode....

[@sowhat3729]

she does it all the time and seemingly has no recollection she has seen it.

[@GA-fn8hr]

and she is acting like she has no idea why Rachel got the solo here???

[@egreen4910]

Lea is actually going to play Fanny on Broadway soon!

[@fisrtlove]

She sang it at the Tony awards

[@itsjeffril]

just noticed that the videos (she's reacting to) are played here are higher than the original key? either that or everything was recorded in the original key and during editing the final video audio was raised a semitone or two higher?

[@naraiceylob]

I do agree with you that they should have done a bunch of harmonies and stuff. This was a show choir competition. Having a soloist do too much can lose points. Or they should have sang this in a competition that they lost.

[@GA-fn8hr]

there was context to the show as to why she sang it solo..

[@mgqb1209]

The one word for this rendition is FIERCE. Absolute 🔥.

[@hiitsjess4703]

she performed it at the 64th Tony's you can watch the performance on youtube. And to answer your question no she doesn't add the squeak that's a Racheal Berry thing.

[@annawilson5221]

There is a wonderful preformance from the Tony’s we’re Lea a sings this song

[@stevieburke8654]

I love Lea's voice

[@shannarahenderson1896]

She song it live at the Tony awards

[@animenerd9440]

leah michelle does sing this live and out of the show, just search it up, id love to see you react

[@carolynspeidel5332]

Hoping her Fanny plays well with Ramin Karimloo’s Nick Arnstein. He is incredible, of course.

[@gabrielapalomeque201]

You should react to ‘Me against the music’ glee

[@raissaandrade3733]

Watch her singing this song on elsie fest, she's incredible

[@tlrolls]

Lea actually does You are woman I am man on glee in a later season as well.

[@RegiIsInWonderland]

This song makes me cry sometimes it must be the high notes

[@candicejackson6070]

I literally do too.

[@Makeji]

Agree, I would like to hear her singing as Fanny.

[@Tarikkb]

She recently did a live show and she sang my man , she said she was in the middle of rehearsal for funny girl , can you please react to it to see how her vocals progressed ?

[@SongsFromASuitcase]

Don’t want to wait??? Watch this video RIGHT NOW on my Patreon account: www.patreon.com/SongsFromASuitcase

Lea Michelle did this at an awards show check it out

[@leoneltorres1940]

She does this song at a Tony awards performance

[@jac6698]

Spoiler alert Rachel is the lead and she saved the day.

[@buffylovezsupercat]

Would wholeheartedly recommend looking up Lea Michele & Darren Criss' LMDC Tour. Her & Darren duet a lot of their glee songs & get sing solos as well. Lea does sing Don't Rain on My Parade live on many clips which show her growth in vocals from this ep & the 2010 tony's.

[@mo.o.o]

Audrey, which version of this song do you prefer? Lea's or Naya's?

[@cristophersilva3299]

You should react to "somewhere only we know" by Glee

[@gloriebluestein9721]

to be mire specific it wasn't that rachel had a solo ready that everyone mentions it's that each group got 3 songs and 1 of them had to be a soloist so each group had a solo singer

[@Bookworm0485]

⚠️ Spoiler ALERT ⚠️! In this episode, Sue gives New Direction's set list to the other schools participating in Sectionals, so the glee club is forces to come up with a new set list on the fly with Rachel getting the solo because she was the only one who could do one on the fly.

[@GA-fn8hr]

She has watched it already so I have no idea why she doesn't understand why Rachel has the solo.

[@Emsev100]

@@GA-fn8hr I thought that was strange as well. She said that she had already watched it… then she should know why. 😂

[@angel4303]

In a later season she plays Fanny in a Funny Girl revival for the show.

[@augiegirl1]

One has to wonder if RACHEL getting that part in the show contributed to LEA getting that part in real life.

[@robsmith2647]

She performs this song live on the Tony's , I believe.

[@emileecee5510]

This recording seems to be a few keys higher than what’s actually on the TV show-it sounds so weird here!

[@Emsev100]

That’s why it didn’t sound correct! I’m an idiot for not noticing. 😂😅

[@macaroni459]

Just a half step/semitone, but man it sounds SO MUCH higher than the original

[@brittany_maireexx3777]

To answer the question of why Rachel is doing a solo and why she’s only on stage and the rest aren’t yet is because in the show choir rules in the show they only have to have 12 members in 1 of the songs they perform registered, as long as they have at-least 12 members registered they can’t be disqualified for having solo acts

[@macaroni459]

It's only a half step higher than the original video, but this video sounds SO much higher and squeakier than the actual performance/video, wow.

[@orgabriel100]

Is this the original pitch?

[@phantomquartz0586]

It does sound a little high-pitched to avoid copyright

[@andreachaparro3742]

Please, look up her live performance of this song at the Tonys because I would really like to know your thoughts on it. Thanks

[@dannydark1452]

Every glee group had to have one person sing a Solo so that's why it was part of the competition. Mercedes was supposed to sing "and I'm not telling you" but another teams stole their set list.

[@jordanbelser5202]

Can you react to Glee’s Wide Awake pleases🥰

[@Caprizonica]

I thought this weekend was the turn for "There are worse things", or Take me to Church, although I don't care about that one.

[@catalinahidalgoarnerich9577]

Please react to her live performance 🙏🏻🙏🏻😅

[@discordluck]

Actually she sang this live in front of babra. I think the video is over YT
