Royal Variety Performance 18 November 2021. Staged at the Royal Albert Hall, London in the presence of Their Royal Highnesses The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and in aid of The Royal Variety Charity.
Written by Benj Pasek and Justin Paul
Keala is amazing on and off stage! It was an incredible experience to share the stage with her and perform for royalty!! Not only is Keala talented but she is kind, open hearted and so humble. I hope everyone who watches this performance feels the same energy we felt on stage - it was electric. This is a moment I will remember for the rest of my life!!
Absolutely! It was such a huge honour to be part of this with her! A living legend!
This is so wholesome, thank you for uploading this. Seeing artists respect each other so humbly and genuinely is amazing, and such sentiments show in this performance. Much love!
I think you not the nail on the head it is the fact she is kind, humble and open hearted with an amazing voice why it resonates with so many people. When you see the emotion you can’t help but fill up
Indeed
I absolutely felt it....even when she got emotional ♥️
It's just beautiful how, after performing this song however many times at this point, the lyrics can still get to her emotionally; it makes it even more powerful with the emotion, and she still manages to pull through it and do a glorious job! I think a lot of singers wouldn't be able to pull it together and even finish the song after starting to cry. With her, when she almost starts to cry, it makes it better, because it lets you know the lyrics are real for her! She truly is a warrior!
The song gets to me I sung it to my mum before she died
Fake tears.
Everything she sings it I tear up as well. You should watch the first vocal rehearsal!
@@williamhicks5462 Oh I have! In fact, I'm kind of addicted to watching videos where people react to seeing it for the first time. It's amazing to see the emotion and the energy gets to most everyone who watches it, no matter what country they're from. Kind of reminds us we're all basically the same. And yes, it still makes me cry every single time.
You just put every thought I have into words! Can’t agree more!
She doesn't not only sing perfectly but she is also a story teller! Fantastic!
That’s the best kind of artist. Not only can they perform well, but they truly love to connect with people, and inspire and even teach people through their music.
She sings her heart out
🥺🫶🏽🖤
When you know she didn't want to be the bearded lady, but Hugh convinced her to do it, it just makes it so much better!
She is the only person who can sing this song the way its meant to be sung 👌🏾 her emotion throughout it simply incredible! 💖
It wasn't that she didn't want to, she didn't believe she could
Willams
Bottle of Jameson was well worth it.
Listen to Zhou Shen's version!
I seriously can feel the way she feels. I truly believe she means it
this song deserved an Oscar. no one remembers and cares about who won best song that year
It was coco and I was pissed. I only remember cause I was thinking this song from coco beat out this is me.... it's not even on the same level
@@davidking5487 Freaking true! And that coco song not even on 'let it go' level, it's really unpopular
@@davidking5487 accurate.
Lifetime Oscar!!!
Coco is also beautiful.
She has improved so much since she started singing this song live. The high parts are really hard, she handles them so much better now! Wowwwww!

Yep, especially after having a stroke
She's ALWAYS been VERY amazing though.
That is her.
@@tillyboos I was going to say she never struggled singing this song. lol
After the loss of my wife in 2020, it was hard for me to watch or hear this song. This movie meant a lot to us. She was a paraplegic, and this song helped her through her rougher times. But since, I use it as a guide. Its helped give me strength when I thought I had none left. I love Keala Settle, and her voice gives me inspiration to keep walking into the future.
I’m sorry for the loss of your wife Todd, may she rest in peace. Thank you for sharing your story. What a gift this song is for all of us!
I'm so sorry, for your loss ,I absolutely love Keiras voice xxx
But dear, the love you put into your words should give you the strength, the strength to feel you loved her so that she must have known with every action of yours. If a complete stranger like me can see it... Be patient to your own pain. She had you, and you must have been great.
I am so sorry😞
I am so sorry for your loss. I hope you still find joy in everyday life. Have a blessed friday, Todd. I believe your wife is all happy now in heaven.
I love the fact that every time in the last chorus she gets very emotional and she barely continues to sing, but then her voice explodes!
I always cry to tears in that moment!
Me to it’s personal song for me
Why is it personal for her?
I love how the audience exploded at the precise moment she said the last word of the song. It must have felt incredible watching it live.
It's rare you can feel that through a recording but gotdamn you can feel it here
i was expecting blood everywhere. i am extremely disappointed by your comment.
She was a broken and very well could still be a broken person, but this is HER song. This song hits her where it counts. You can FEEL her sorrow and her joy and you don’t even have to be there with her! THAT is the power of an empath. Girl, from one empath to another, I salute you. From one singer to another, I adore you, and from one woman to another, I am with you.
FINALLY someone who writes a song that speaks from the heart and tells the WORLD that no matter what people say or do they can't break our spirit and that we all are special in our own way. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I wish this song was around when I was a child.
She did not wrote the song Loren All red did. She only sang it trained by Allred. Thanks
@@MamtalibHallaby1997 I know that. I didn't say she wrote it. I just said that finally a song was written from the heart and telling the world that everyone is special in their own way
Me too sweetheart it would have made me stronger
@@MamtalibHallaby1997 i thought pasek and paul wrote it?
Eu queria que as pessoas pensassem assim, como hoje com mais respeito!!! E tbm nós fossemos mais fortes e corajosos naquela época. Os jovens hoje se expressam mais. Good luck
If you ever watch the first time she sang this you won't be disappointed. She gets everyone on their feet & brings Hugh to tears. This woman & song are a gift to the world.
It's true. I agree.💖👍💖👍💖
It wasn't the first time she sang it, it was the first time she stepped out from behind the music stand to sing it.
True got me tear up when I saw that part
That scream at the end is what does it for me. She knows she nailed her performance. She knows she's flawed, and that's ok.. she's marching forward regardless. That is one beautiful, strong, and confident woman!
This is such an inspiring and uplifting song, and Keala's raw emotion coming through is what makes this song so powerful. Its incredibly beautiful to watch 😍❤
my wife hates me for keep on repeating this song playing over and over again but the song hits right through my soul!
I don't understand why this masterpiece got no award!
At least it won a Grammy. I think
Keala YOU ARE PHENOMENAL, BEAUTIFUL and SO INSPIRATIONAL!! Thank YOU SO MUCH! Benj Pasek and Justin Paul could not have composed a better meaning!! Literally one of the two most incredible scenes in The Greatest Showman. I love the entire film..... There is SO MUCH behind this song, SO MUCH!
she IS an AMAZING ACTRESS. PERIODT
This is the first time I've heard her sing it live since the Oscars when she sung it with a horrendous cold.
So nice to hear that amazing, powerful voice at it's best
it wasn't a cold, it was hear failure. She is, quite literally, ubnable to hold a clear note or give any breath due to health issues. And it still shows in this video.
And not "At its best," still unhealthy and exploiting for money and fame. She has nothing else.
She had a stroke right before the oscars. Thats why🙂 love her voice 🙂
Her BEST performance of this song TO DATE! You can tell she has been developing and working her voice. Her high notes speak so much more clearly then before! Keep it up Keala Settle! You rock girl!
the fact that Keala just moved to England, something shes wanted to do for years, the then be on THE royal variety show... beyond proud to say i saw her in Les Mis and Waitress and would never trade that for the world!
I'm in tears everytime i hear this song
👍✌️
I love this song. It gives me strenght to be me and forget the other's opinions. This is me, this is who I am. I've never tired of listening the song on UA-cam. It's a wonderful and great song.
I can't wait to see her as Ms Coddle in Wicked, she's gonna rock it!
I've heard several covers but still haven't found one that beats Keala's version. She is beyond amazing...
Попробуйте послушать NuNew из Таиланда. DMDLANDCONCERT 2.Необыкновенно красиво, не так сильно, но очень нежно и искренне
She sang from her heart. 😭
That acapella on the last part is lit. That is genius. Im hanging on every word until the climactic part "this is me!"
It is transcendent!
The shaking hands behind her representing her performance during the green light video are amazing!
Yes, loved that detail!!
In New Zealand its called a "wiri" she done her own personal 1 also at 3.35. Its something we use here in our performers of kapa haka.
@@andreaatutahi4839 Thanks for clarifying! How moving
It doesnt matter how this song finds me, in the movie, the rehearsal, well produce solo it always gives me chills and make me cry like a baby. ♥️ i think i needed it today
Same here!
I think she’s such a beautiful women. She always looks so surprised at what a star she’s become. Magical.
I have been picked on since I was a small child because of how I look, when I first heard this song, I found it hard to breathe because I was crying so hard!! This women's BEAUTIFUL AND soul touching voice has REALLY touched my heart!! Every time I hear it, I LOVE it even more!!! Thank you for sharing your strong, strength giving voice with us !!!!!!!!
Me too, I couldn't swallow my own spit. I thought my throat was going to close.
Tragically, she only gets my like, since youtube still doesn't have a love button, no matter how much she might deserve it.....
I still get goosebumps 2 years later when I listen to this beautiful & amazing performance.
Keala transports you through her voice ❤.
Thank you Keala Settle for being the voice of everyone, everywhere 🥰
did u know SHES MAORI
This is not just a song it is emotion
I can't watch this song without any chills
何度聴いても、魂が震えて、涙が出てきます。素晴らしいです。この動画に出会えて嬉しいです。ありがとうございます😭
Sometimes, I use doubting myself.. not good enough.. not beautiful enough..not smart enough but seeing her is such an inspiration to go forward the achievement of my dream. 🦋🌈
I can never get enough of this song and her performance.. amazing!
Nothing but the best.
Her joy at the end of her performance is just priceless.
I’ve heard this song so many times and it still makes me emotional!!
This song is literally like a religious experience. She was born to sing that song. So much emotion that it gives me goosebumps. Song brings me to tears every time I hear it. Her voice hits u to the core. What amazing talent. Simply magnificent and magical. ❤
as soon as i heard this, it instantly became my favorite song. such an empowering song.
I didn’t expect the movie itself to be a masterpiece
She is simply the best. Nothing else you can say other than perfect. 🙏
This has to be by far the best performance I've seen Keala do of this beautiful anthem. She and her voice are absolutely amazing. I wish I was there on person to experience this incredible performance by Keala, the choir, and drummers. Bravo to all on that stage!
I hope she sing more songs.. This song hits me so hard im gonna show to the people that THIS IS ME.
It’s been 4 years and I still cry. Cool, cool.
I started crying when she started crying. Beautiful.
I am not a stranger to the dark
Hide away, they say
'Cause we don't want your broken parts
I've learned to be ashamed of all my scars
Run away, they say
No one'll love you as you are
But I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
Another round of bullets hits my skin
Well, fire away 'cause today, I won't let the shame sink in
We are bursting through the barricades and
Reaching for the sun (we are warriors)
Yeah, that's what we've become (yeah, that's what we've become)
I won't let them break me down to dust
I know that there's a place for us
For we are glorious
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I am brave, I am bruised
I am who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh
This is me
and I know that I deserve your love
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) there's nothing I'm not worthy of
(Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh, oh, oh)
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
This is brave, this is bruised
This is who I'm meant to be, this is me
Look out 'cause here I come (look out 'cause here I come)
And I'm marching on to the beat I drum (marching on, marching, marching on)
I'm not scared to be seen
I make no apologies, this is me
When the sharpest words wanna cut me down
I'm gonna send a flood, gonna drown 'em out
I'm gonna send a flood
Gonna drown 'em out
Oh
This is me
What the heaven did I just watch????!!! So much talent in the room!!!!
Years after THIS SONG still gets to me! 😞😭
What a gift to humanity! Timeless and elevating! March 2024
This is an anthem for anyone of us who have felt like they were always a little out of their own element. Someone who was smart but didn't feel like they should show how smart they are. Those of us who were awkward or not skinny or pretty, but need that push to be themselves and not what others think they should be. Thank you for singing this song and being the one who pushes us out of our comfort zone.
No one can sing this song better that keala. Shes queen
This song is an anthem to so many who don't think they fit in because they're different... For me it's that i love another man and for many many yrs thought i was going to have to worry...i know this song is a great reminder that, yes, I'm alittle different than u but it's made me better and stronger than ever before... I've picked myself up of the ground and dusted myself off...I've been beaten and chewed up, but i keep rising like a Phoenix from the ashes! Thank you Keala for showing me that i am brave i am bruised and I am who I'm meant to be...
THIS IS ME!!
It’s that pause at the end when it’s silent and then the massive applause start that gets me everytime 😢
This song got me through so much and when Iisten to this song I know that I will get the courage to get through anything that comes my way even if it's hard
Such raw talent what a powerful and beautiful voice and lady. Thank you Keala by gifting the world with your lovely voice.
I adore the way she expresses her inner soul and emotion. Stunning❤
I think everyone can relate to this song on a deep personal level....while tears and courage flow!
She did well to control her emotions. Absolutely mind blowing song and performance. Amazing lady. 🥰👍🏼👏🏼
Absolutely phenomenal voice! An anthem for anyone who ever felt not good enough!
Every time I listen to this I'll have tears in my eyes.
the song in general is awesome to listen to, but there is something in her voice while singing it live that makes it feel so special to me, I would be in tears,
I wish she would be the one who sang This is Me when Hugh Jackman came with his world tour to my country
Damn onions. I love her.
This song has me crying no matter how many times i hear it! I listen to it every morning!

Oh
This is me
I think I’m right in saying, the reason she got emotional was because her dad is British performing on such a British institution like the Royal Variety, performing in front of the Royals and having recently up sticks and set up a new life in the UK she finally felt she was right where she belonged!! 😍🖤 she’s phenomenal.
This song is gospel to me, the way it makes me feel I can’t explain it
A thousand thumbs, a million hearts and 7.4 billion human souls need to hear this. Whoever wrote this lyrics: thankful beyond words. This is what humanity is capable of! Everyone does things worthy of this song, of their own love, of the love of others: SHOW IT EVERY MOMENT. Love will come around and bless you ❤
Im am a singer and sing w my eyes closed... Love this so much...
Like many I have listened to every version of this song, done by a wide variety of very talented singers. Many of them are excellent, but none can match Keala. This song was meant to be performed by Keala. She brings something to the song that no one else does, or can.
This is the single greatest song in a musical, in the single greatest movie musical of all time.
😮wow u can just see the emotions parring out her face singing that song my word that was a proformens brovo brovo ma'am ❤️🥺
Keala is such a Gorgeous woman. She always looks and sounds so classy. Her powerful voice carries soooo much emotion and it's written beautifully on her face when she belts. I honestly could listen to her all day (and maybe ask for some styling tips lol)
one of her best live performances of this for sure. love the acapella bit at the end. Great production.
Keala is just what we could call a genuine artist. Perfect!! 👏👏👏

Such raw emotion from Keala, such a beautiful soul.
I get so emotional every time I hear this song she is so awesome she really is powerful
Bullies, there should be a special planet for them. This song is intense energy, it hits the heart.
First time seeing this video. How the audience did not jump to their feet at the end is astonishing too me. Brilliant performance!! BOOM!!
I totally agree… it was a very British and conservative audience, the tux and tails might have prevented jumping 🤵♂️😂🤵♀️
Ugly cry overtime I see and hear her amazing and powerful voice. You go girl!!!😍
I was at my breaking point last night and I just found this beautiful song from yt reccos, it is destined. I might be late for this but Keala, you saved me with this song 🤍 Forever grateful.
FANTASTIC!!! SHE IS STUNNING!
Thank you Keala. 🎉🎉 🎉This is an anthem song for the human race. Each of us is created with purpose and let us celebrate being ourselves always. We are created in love. Spread peace and love to all.
The fact she has had a stroke too before the oscars she is incredible
I really enjoyed this performance. But, her other video of the cast rehearsal blew me away. The rawness and purity of it, really melted my heart ❤️
I have such respect for this beautiful, brave woman.
Every performance of her is nothing less than PERFECT!!!! ❤
Still, one of the most amazing performances ever
Beautiful Song & Beautiful Woman. This song touches so many peoples souls…
How did this not get a standing ovation?! How dare they!! Stand up, clap until your arms fall down, you don't see a performance like this every day!
I still can't believe the power of this song, it never fails to hit me straight in the heart, oftentimes it makes me cry, just simply empowering.
最近この曲を知って毎日聴いています。こんなに自分に自信をくれる曲は初めてです！
I love this song so much! Makes me cry every time BUT also makes me stronger whenever I need it ❤
This made me cry, I've always loved this song and this version literally gave me chills! Bravo all👏👏👏
you are a very talented singer and great in the greatest showman .
