I never thought anyone could do this better than Patti Lupone, but Lea Salonga is the best musical theater voice I've ever heard. Found her in Miss Saigon, when she was just a kid,and have loved her ever since.

[@fequirante3693]

Oh so proud of her...

[@Nonny54aussie]

Yes, saw her as the lead in Miss Saigon in London. Very special ❤

[@virginiadegway4796]

It's really beautiful n soothing.

[@TimoBrown79]

I saw her in Miss Saigon in London when I was 12 years old. To this day she is one of the best musical theater singers this world has ever had.

[@graceponjemalala-2972]

You're absolutely right about that!❤

[@merlygavanes7650]

Lea Salonga is one of the best from her childhood up to now she always gave prides to our country🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭

[@tinpizarras6630]

The 1st Asian who received a TONY AWARD. She is a Broadway legend. The original voice of two Disney Princess. Jasmine in Aladin (A whole new world) and Mulan (Reflection). The 1st Kim in Ms Saigon.

[@lydiadizon5549]

Lea's diction, timbre and voice resonance, and her storytelling is what sets her apart from others...a truly gifted artist and performer.

Lea is just perfection. Had the opportunity to see her live and meet her at the airport with her daughter . I can honestly say as talented as she is, she is the kindest and sweetest person and took the time to have a conversation with me before I boarded my flight. She was waiting for hers. A memory I’ll always cherish

[@maggisantos906]

Well, Justin, you just unlocked the rabbit hole of Lea Salonga. You should react to On My Own from the Les Mis anniversary concert. I think that version is the gold standard.

[@koalababe7752]

As a musician myself - Lea Salonga has a certain way of being perfect in whatever she sings.. she's very articulate, the landscape of her singing is always perfect -and she's consistently perfect. Her live versions are even better than the recordings, it's the opposite for many singers

[@cynthiacarreon4981]

The Queen! You can't help but be mesmerized, can't take your eyes off, as she carries you through the song down to the last note.

[@HerminiaSia]

Every time i heard her sing talagang kinikilabutan ako parang sa puso nanggagaling ang kanyang tinig siya ang nagiisang singer na hindi nakakasawang pakinggan ang boses ang natatanging singer ng bansang pilipinas mabuhay ka lea salonga

Some one who understands the meaning and the proper emotion of the song. Crystal clear enunciation, pronunciation, and articulation. No need to belt, just perfect pitch, technique and proper use of dynamics. Vocal and musical genius.

[@skyfan7979]

She is. You get carried away by her beautiful and articulate singing.

[@valueangles]

You bet! Such discipline! She never gives her audience less than 100%! Every nuance of emotion, every syllable of th lyrics, she brings through to perfection! Artist par excellence!

She is really incredible. She played a variety of roles on stage. Annie, Les Miserables, Miss Saigon to name a few. An actress both film and on stage. A singer. A Disney character singing voice. A great artist.

[@youlikethischainits3dollar157]

One of the G.O.A.T. in Philippine Music Industry. She still sings until now. And I love that she likes my seven faves too. Her story was that she was discriminated back before just because she's a Filo, they were afraid her diction will not be clear and that her vocal technique might not be on par but she proved them wrong.

[@olmc1994]

She's a Tony winner for her Miss Saigon performance. You will be interested to know that she's an ARMY and is publicly supportive of BTS in her tweets 😃

[@jondoe8889]

I'd never heard her before, and saw her on Great Performances. And I was instantly hooked! Everything was perfect about her. The white gown, her singing, and the little trills she put in. That red lipstick! Like it was put on with a paint roller, and I loved it! But most of all was her emoting. Chewing up the lyrics and looking like a tiger about to pounce, with claws spread wide! I've been looking for her GP appearance. I have a collection of songs that are greatly enhanced by video. I want to add this song! And, hear more from Solea. Thank you, PBS!

[@noryvitalaaron4109]

Lea Salonga is one of my favorite singer. She sings Don’t Cry For Me Argentina very good. I also love her in her concert in Japan with El Divo. I was fortunate to see her as Kim on the play Miss Saigon when it opens in Los Angeles California.

[@kitsawrap]

Lea Salonga orginated the role of Kim in Miss Saigon. She is also the singing voice of Princess Jasmine and Mulan. And to add to that, she is also a Olivier and Tony awardee. If you want to react to more of her, I recommend you listen to her duet with Regine Velasquez, a musical medley. You also need to check out her performances during Miss Saigon!

Wow Coach Justin!!! I love the story how you trained a mom to have power in her voice. So inspiring. And loved your reactions to this. So on point. I felt that way too. I reached audio ecstasy while listening to Lea here. When you listen to Lea Salonga, your heart hears. Not just your ears. Heart and soul feel what she sings. It's amazing. Yes here in the Philippines, we love good music and dancing. It is part of our culture. Music is part of the Filipino soul. I guess every human being's soul. But for us we take music seriously because it is a shame if a Filipino can't carry a tune. Hahaha. Because people sing during gatherings... We are videoke addicts. Lol.

[@hectoroperario2352]

[@johnmiller7015]

I have always been partial to Patti Lupone singing this. This was my first time hearing Lea singing this and she was absolutely incredible. Also, I watch MANY reaction videos to many different songs and genre's and I liked the way he he allowed the music to flow through him and the way he gave information throughout the song. He would stop the song briefly and then get back to it. There are too many out there that stop it and just talk, evidently just to listen to themselves.
