      I can never hear anyone else sing this song! What I find even more impressive is that during the last note he switches from straight tone to vibrato and back again. This is rarely done because as soon as you allow the vibrato in, you lose a lot of air. Most songs that end with a big note like this, start with a deep breath, extended straight tone and then open up to a crescendo vibrato. He barely even looks like he took a breath!!! Perfection!

But because of this performance, Adam will now and always be the only Freddie in my eyes, ears, mind, and heart. I mean, the vocal prowess, the pure and raw emotion, there's no denying that this man's voice, and his talent as an actor, are truly out of this world.

      Murray’s version has more passion and realism in the voice

    • @kiwilerner
      @kiwilerner 2 роки тому +5

      Zubin is fantastic, his voice so rich and full but also able to show the anger/bitterness. Of course Murray Head was unique in his interpretation--technically less solid vocally but holy crap does he pour his heart and guts out to express his feelings!. And funnily enough, Drew Sarich kills this too (in a performance with an orchestra, not an actual production of the show)--obviously adds his unique rock style, flawless vocals and so, so much anger and hurt. I say "funnily" because it seems that the requirement for pulling this song off is that you first play a kick-ass Judas in JCS!
      For me, I feel Adam kinda under-performs this--I mean, there's no denying his incredible vocals and breath support, and he does get some of the anger across for sure. But this is Freddie's apotheosis where he finally shows some sincerity and raw emotion, and personally I don't hear/see it in Adam's portrayal. BUT I know I'm an outlier because most people are knocked out by his performance and I'm certainly not gonna say they're wrong. Just my weird taste really.
      (But everyone should check Drew's version... Despite not having the advantage of performing the role for an entire production--though he did a concert version back in 2012--he *really* shows the spectrum of emotion Freddie goes through. Including more vulnerability than I think others bring to it; shows us a peek of that unhappy, neglected boy. Ugh, listen to me. I'm sorry, I'm an unabashed Sarich fangirl so my bias is clear, heh.)

    • @TimeandMonotony
      @TimeandMonotony 2 роки тому +1

      @@kiwilerner That's totally fair! Adam is technically incredible, but he often struggles with bringing the emotion, so I get what you're saying! But his singing is so good that I don't mind that his acting can be kinda weak, and I think Freddie was probably his best performance.
      And you're right about playing Judas seeming to be a prerequisite to being a great Freddie, haha! Though, like I said, I do like Adam (and I still can't believe he never played Judas!)
      Drew Sarich kills every role, one of the absolute best rock tenors in theater!

      I saw it on Broadway in the 1980’s. Critics panned it, in part because of its Cold War black-and-white approach to character development, but I thought it just marvelous. This particular song still tears me apart. The character who sings “Pity the Child” is seemingly cold and callous as an adult, but the song gives you the backstory of his life and you understand him better.

    • @JF-sh2sm
      @JF-sh2sm 4 роки тому +4

      SeasonsChange14 No wonder the critics panned the Broadway version since it was VERY different from the actual story. It’s a shame that the original plot had to suffer from outrageous modifications making it less enjoyable. The West End version (which is 95% the same as this concert) will always be the original and the better version.

    This is my favorite rendition of CHESS thus far, though I do wish "I Know Him So Well" was incorporated into a scene in which Svetlana & Florence have actually met and interacted. This abstract rendition is OK, but I prefer the other (which was how a previous script did it). That said, most of the updates to this book make the musical far better.

      Orchestrally it's exactly the same as the London version of the show (as is all of Chess in Concert, just with some of the synths replaced with a fuller string and brass section) - Adam does whats called an "interpolation" where he makes the role his own by riffing on that end note. Doesn't affect the Orchestra at all, and gives a great applause break. Adam is just super efficient with his air which is also 100% necessary considering this is one of the most vocally demanding songs in all of theatre for men.

    • @elphbwckd212

      This show is rewritten just about everytime they do a new performance. I've seen it a couple of times in concert and one full production (all professional productions) and each time there were changes made. Songs were cut, lyrics rewritten, songs were sung by different characters. It's really an ever evolving show, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.

    It's actually 21 seconds long because it lasts from 4:35 to 4:56. Just to be pedantic. I just love this show so much that I don't mind getting into trivial details - cos it simply gives me an excuse to watch and listen to this wonderful song and show for yet one more time!

    Part 12 is only one song, granted it’s a 10 minute song, but it’s also a great song. I found an edit of Disney characters singing The Deal (No Deal) and it was great

    I'm going to play Devil's Advocate and say that Idina Menzel just always sounds like Maureen to me. She does have her moments in Chess, but when It comes to Adam, He plays it good. Every once in a while, he does something and I think Roger, but not often. There's a line in this musical where Idina says something like "he's working for Global Television, it's big money," and all I hear is "my riot got you on TV I deserve a royalty." She isn't a bad singer, I guess I'm just used to Elaine Paige

    Yes you are right - my bad! Still, what a wonderful beautiful song to discuss stuff that gives one an excuse to listen again - and again - and again - and it's the music not the debates that make you want to do that!

    Adam gives this difficult song a pure & true Broadway vocalist interpretation. 🤩
    However, didn't the composers write this song as a rock anthem, to be sung in the style of a rock vocalist? 🤔

      I don't think it's a prompter, I think it is a video screen of the conductor, as the orchestra is behind the performers.
