Can you do a “how to keep your voice healthy while belting” or something like that I really need it and I’d appreciate it a lOt

[@sabrinaarose]

drink tea

[@gabrielatejera3145]

Im ready to see you on brodway

[@musikali1]

I hope ao too But also remember that being a KZbin star watched and enjoyed by thousands of people around the plant is an accomplishment of its own

[@morganbrysacz7707]

Ok. Quick PSA. if this girl does not play elphaba in a play like soon I’m going to sue

[@squishylover3]

Please tell me you’re pursuing theatre! This was phenomenal! Reminded me of Ariana’s cover a little too

[@gofortheblue4705]

girl, my jaw fricking dropped when you started singing.... and your voice control and vibrato........ i literally am speechless 😶 even your expression. like you should be on broadway

[@facedown8069]

You’ve improved so much both vocally and in the way you act when you sing since the first video I watched from you which I think was your cover of Burn, it’s so wild

[@mollyowens3159]

omg i have goosebumps. YOU ARE SO FREAKING TALENTED!! could you maybe do a cover from heathers ? i love your voice so much ! so much love xxx

[@emma_miller1323]

This is so amazing. You are such an inspiration to me when it comes to my singing. I hope to see you on broadway soon! love you!

[@iamafraa]

Did that really just happen? Have I actually understood? This weird quirk I've tried to suppress or hide Is a talent that could help me meet the Wizard If I make good So I'll make good When I meet the Wizard Once I prove my worth And then I meet the Wizard What I've waited for since, since birth And with all his Wizard wisdom By my looks, he won't be blinded Do you think the Wizard is dumb? Or like Munchkins so small-minded? No, he'll say to me I see who you truly are A girl on whom I can rely And that's how we'll begin The Wizard and I Once I'm with the Wizard My whole life will change 'Cause once you're with the Wizard No one thinks you're strange No father is not proud of you No sister acts ashamed And all of Oz has to love you When by the Wizard, you're acclaimed And this gift or this curse I have inside

And since folks here to an absurd degree Seem fixated on your verdigris Would it be all right by you If I de-greenify you?" Of course that's not important to me All right, why not", I'll reply Oh, what a pair we'll be The Wizard and I Yes, what a pair we'll be The Wizard and Unlimited My future is unlimited And I've just had a vision almost like a prophecy I know, it sounds truly crazy And true, the vision's hazy But I swear, someday there'll be A celebration throughout OZ That's all to do with me! And I'll stand there with the Wizard Feeling things I've never felt And though I'd never show it I'd be so happy, I could melt And so it will be for the rest of my life And I'll want nothing else 'til I die Held in such high esteem When people see me, they will scream For half of Oz's favorite team The Wizard and I

[@htianaa]

[@CarolineForbesAndTaylorSwift]

I would love for you to cover “Popular” and “Defying Gravity”! Your belts were so beautifully done and clean!

[@brookbradley9950]

Finally it has come!!! I have been listening to this song non stop and I was think oh Emily should do this and you have!!!! I have gone and seen this show on broadway and let me tell you that was probably better than what I saw. I reckon that you are truly the next Elphba!!! Btw NYTC is missing you

[@claremeatyoof1448]

I’m confused on how she sounded so good on that high note

[@katlynch2334]

So um feel free to teach me how to sing these Wicked songs...!! I love Wicked so much and this was amazing! I definitely need to hear defying gravity by you if you haven't already done it!!!!!!!

[@isabelerhart9523]

Kat Lynch İ love it too ❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@MarkM58]

When did you first know you had been given this amazing gift? What kind of vocal training have you had?

[@hellofood6522]

[@melissagreene4174]
