    Guys, i don't think the other KIMS are copycats..They have their own version and delivery of the song...the only difference is - NOTHING COMES CLOSE TO THE ORIGINAL...Lea is Lea..And Lea is KIM....but let us give credit to the rest of the KIMS that followed suit, after all, LEA has set the standard and started it all...Without LEA, there will be no MISS SAIGON...Lucky to those who were later named as KIM because all the materials has been laid-out for them to sing and interpret according to their own capabilities... Lea molded everything at first, and the rest tried to give their best. and now, let history speaks for itself..:) PEACE!

      i dont think that’s fair tbh. just because she's the original doesn’t mean she's the best, u shouldn’t judge a singer just because of that.

      @@Dan-gi6tf sis im not trying to take all that away from lea, she is extremely talented! i was just saying that you should be open to the other kims aswell, and not immediately give the original the gold solely based on the fact that she's the original. however, lea definitely deserves all the credit she gets :)

      @@sofie7949 That's true. Originals aren't always the "best". Like in *Wicked* , I won't name anyone. However, in this particular case, it is fair and safe to say that when it comes to Kim, Lea owns the role.

    Lea has always been articulate in every word that she sings-- one of her good points ever since she began to open her mouth to sing. Not one slight of wrong diction in performance or two would erase nor stain everything she's done whether or not in theater. I know what you're saying is important too, but I also think Lea has thought about that before.

    Lea Salonga's diction is crisp and excellent like Audra McDonald's. The Kims in the current West End revival need to work on theirs.

      @NYCER4LIFE 8 років тому +4

      I saw Eva Noblezada in November 2015 and found her a serviceable Kim. Noblezada was having vocal problems and was noticeably flat in several of Kim's numbers especially I STILL BELIEVE. Her AMERICAN IDOLesque vocals seem to be taxing her and she clearly needs both vocal rest and technique refinement before coming to New York. Noblezada can belt but she needs to work on her head voice so she'll be in better shape by the time she headlines the revival on Broadway.

    You who I cradled in my arms.
    You,
    Asking as little as you can.
    Little snip of a little man,
    I know I'd give my life for you.
    You didn't ask me to be born
    You,
    Why should you learn of war or pain?
    To be sure you're not hurt again,
    I swear I'd give my life for you.
    I've tasted love beyond all fear.
    And you should know it's love that brought you here.
    And in one perfect night,
    When the stars burned like new,
    I knew what I must do.
    I'll give you a million things I'll never own.
    I'll give you a world to conquer when you're grown.
    You will be who you want to be.
    You
    Can choose whatever heaven grants.
    As long as you can have your chance,
    I swear i'll give my life for you.
    Sometimes I wake up, reaching for him.
    I feel his shadow brush my head,
    But there's just moonlight…
