I listened to this song on repeat 15 years ago and it still holds up!!! Such an incredibly writen song, and such an amazing vocal performance too. Just wow!
I just watched a more recent performance of this song and you can tell that she has transformed so much over the years vocally, its so refreshing to see
There IS emotion. it's subtle because whoever is singing this has covered it up forever and is scared to reveal it. Natalie captures it absolutely perfectly.
This was the first time the song has ever been done. There isn't a recording yet but as soon as there is one, it will be posted up on the FORWARD myspace page.
this song just shows how amazing natalie really is. that she has got the belting power but also show those emotions through her amazing voice. the emotions, the voice, those amazing runs, her clearity, just make for some of the best vocals i have ever heard in my life. love you natalie! wish you all the best and successes! you sure deserve it!
I am obsessed with the chords/melody from :52 - 1:10. Especially the moving piano line against the melody, under the words "Glimmer of hope" So gorgeous!!!
Jonathan a true Masterpeice! Natatie- You have the perfect voice for this song. You are absolutely marvelous! This song was sung at Upper Darby High School as part of the Brad Schoener Memorial Day. He was a music teacher in the Upper Darby District for twenty five years and just died of cancer in March. He changed many musician's lives. This song really hit the mark today. Thank you Jonathan! I will be speaking with you Mom at Marshall in September. I have been on a Sabbatical.
Jonathan and Natalie- The song, performance and how the lyrics are put across are pure genius. What a masterpiece! I am the vocal music teacher at your Mother's School, and she said that I should check this out first....Bravo!
i NEVER get tired of listening to this video. seriously, i probably listen to it once a day and pretend that i am natalie. God knows no one can out sing this girl.
“Quiet” - Jonathan Reid Gealt Whats the perfect balance Between yelling too much or not yelling enough So that people don’t walk over you Is it a crime just to want to be nice To avoid confrontation Show everyone a little respect Time after time I find that I’m struggling To tell you whats burning inside A glimmer of hope that you’ll finally see Yet I remain quiet Look at my face, don’t you dare turn away ‘Cause I’m losing my patience Show me now you’re the man That I want to be with for the rest of my life I have so much love to give you Just open up your eyes and you’ll see Time after time I find that I’m struggling To tell you what’s burning inside A glimmer of hope that you’ll finally see That I’m being quiet I can’t remain quiet anymore No I was not built to idly stand here Letting you make my decisions Based upon your point of view You never allowed me my own freedom Well hear me now Show me now you’re the man That I want to be with for the rest of my life I have so much love to give you Just open up your eyes and you’ll see Time after time I find that I’m struggling To tell you what’s burning inside A glimmer of hope that you’ll finally see Still I, yes I I can’t remain quiet Quiet
I played this song for my best friend because he was going through a rough patch. . and he said this song got him through it and he let everything out he had been holding in.
I love watching this video and then the London video because you can see how much she improved between now and then even though it seems impossible😂 AMAZING
Favorite thing about this song: 2:35 to the final chorus. The way that it's written demands lots of quick voice-switching, which innately weakens the singer's strength, which to me represents the character's fear at finally deciding to speak her mind. Just had to say this is one of my favorite songs, and sung by one of my favorite singers.
@singerstar2be95 It will be in mid December! My debut album is being released on Sh-K-Boom/Ghostlight records and Natalie recorded this song! So look for it around December 14th!
At 1:55 her styling is absolutely perfect. I mean you can hear every single note perfectly. The only thing I found wrong with the performance is the breathing at the end. It seemed after every two words she took a deep breath. But other than that her voice is that of an angel.
It seems like thats just because the pianist is going really really fast and she was trying to keep up lol In other recordings of this its not nearly as fast.
Still come back to this so very often… so good. ❤
I love it at 1:56 when you hear the person filming laughing just because of how ridiculously amazing her riff was.
i feel like this song could be straight out of The Last Five Years. love it
FR THO!!! 🤩

I love this! She doesnt just sing it, she performs it too!
Best performance of hers. God, I have no words.
There IS emotion. it's subtle because whoever is singing this has covered it up forever and is scared to reveal it. Natalie captures it absolutely perfectly.
Gorgeous song...and words just can't describe Natalie Weiss...think we're gonna be seeing A LOT more of this girl!
So beautiful. Love her voice, she has such an incredible range!
Still fabulous. I'm in love with this song and obsessed with Natalie.
She just moves her voice so fast it is quite interesting and an exquisite rare talent.
Its about training not talent
Marios POS it's definitely both
She is phenomenal.
This a great song, it's wonderful. She's incredible.
Every time I'm having a rough day I come back to this video and I feel a whole lot better. Fuck yeah
This was the first time the song has ever been done. There isn't a recording yet but as soon as there is one, it will be posted up on the FORWARD myspace page.
God this comment feels like a time capsule of my youth.
All of her runs at the end are flawlwess. She is brilliant.

Beautiful performance, her voice is insane
Her technique is flawless...I just bought her EP and I'm dying for more!

does anyone else find themselves watching this 20 times a day?....no joke.
Why is she not incredibly famous! And a Broadway star!??? She is freaking incredible!
i NEVER get tired of listening to this video. seriously, i probably listen to it once a day and pretend that i am natalie. God knows no one can out sing this girl.
Goodness gracious that was fabulous.
Absolutely beautiful...I am singing this song in my senior showcase recital..I hope I can do it as much justice.
I just needed to hear this song again after a month of 'not hearing it",,, I just drift away.. so pretty !
So much control on the riffs that almost seams like it's autotuned (but then this sounds awesome). Amazing.
that song is so amazing. i wish you sold it on itunes or something. i love listening to it.
gorgeous song.
she totally inspires me to become more music savvy...thank you :)
Damn I just want to say that her timing is one in a million. No one out there has her timing. It just makes everything so real.
SHE ALWAYS WINS.
Natalie Weiss is flawless, people. time to understand that.
i can't believe this song has been around for so long.
GURL. this song is perfect even!! talent talent talent talent talent talent
her performance captivated me with emotion. Couldn't take my eyes off her
This is by far the BEST version of this song I've ever heard, especially on You Tube.

i am in love with this song and she acts it absolutely flawlessly. amazing
A beautiful rendition of a touching song. I love love Ms. Natalie Weiss. :*

Woah.. I love her.. and I kind of discovered her today.. and i just googled her.. and its her birthday. Its a match made in heaven, Natalie :)
INCREDIBLE!!! I'm speechless.
“Quiet” - Jonathan Reid Gealt
Whats the perfect balance
Between yelling too much or not yelling enough
So that people don’t walk over you
Is it a crime just to want to be nice
To avoid confrontation
Show everyone a little respect
Time after time I find that I’m struggling
To tell you whats burning inside
A glimmer of hope that you’ll finally see
Yet I remain quiet
Look at my face, don’t you dare turn away
‘Cause I’m losing my patience
Show me now you’re the man
That I want to be with for the rest of my life
I have so much love to give you
Just open up your eyes and you’ll see
Time after time I find that I’m struggling
To tell you what’s burning inside
A glimmer of hope that you’ll finally see
That I’m being quiet
I can’t remain quiet anymore
No I was not built to idly stand here
Letting you make my decisions
Based upon your point of view
You never allowed me my own freedom
Well hear me now
Show me now you’re the man
That I want to be with for the rest of my life
I have so much love to give you
Just open up your eyes and you’ll see
Time after time I find that I’m struggling
To tell you what’s burning inside
A glimmer of hope that you’ll finally see
Still I, yes I
I can’t remain quiet
Quiet
She has an amazing voice and the song is gorgeous. This is a perfect performance
definitely, you're not alone! I love this song, I love Natalie, and am beginning to love jonathan reid gealt! great deal of talent here!

Love her belt-so effortless:)

Songs like this and the songs by Pasek & Paul have a certain honesty to them that makes listeners connect automatically.
Natalie...wow your voice is just beautiful.
SO AMAZING.... wish I was there :-(
Amazing!!!
Natalie Weiss you melt my heart...You are completely amazing...OMG ;)

So, $10 says the 15 people who "disliked" this are really just jealous.
