As an aspiring performer, Lea provides so much inspiration. Peformers like her, Kristin Chenoweth, and Brian Stokes Mitchell really are once in a generation.
I agree! This still give me goosebumps.. Whenever I feel down, I always go back to this video and then I am reminded that the "world provides second chances!"... 🥰
Please , oh please God, let this come to Broadway soon! As usual, Lea is FLAWLESS and awe inspiring! I'm feeling another Tony Award for Lea for this one. Telly Leung is amazing as well!
Saw this last night at the Old Globe in San Diego, it's an amazing show! Unbelievable vocal of all casts, even the ensemble. I hope this will make it to Broadway and Lea should be recognized. It's my first time to watch Telly Leung; he is an amazing actor and singer as well. George Takei is the best as well, what brilliant actor. I didn't expect that this show is this good!
This is such a gem 💙 Thanks for keeping it up. This is the only performance of Lea Salonga singing this absolutely beautiful song. This song saved me when I was going through the most challenging time of my life. 💙
The story, the score, the choreography, ad staging. If the story will not move you or touch your heart I don't know what can. This should be seen by everyone kids and entire family. Story about love, forgiveness, and pride.
Was fortunate to see the show in San Diego during it's sold our premiere run. Absolutely awesome. Have been anxiously awaiting its Broadway debut. It's destined to be a smashing success!!
I would love to sing this at my choir anniversary. This song honestly has followed me through some very rough patches in my life and it resonates with me a lot. I would try to keep it a surprise as long as possible and I hope to do this song justice.
Such a beautiful and hopeful song. It’s okay if we fail or make mistakes, as long as we learn from it. To anyone reading this, hope life grants you a second chance.
This song is lit! It's so full of meaning... Whenever I feel down, I always go back to this video and then I am reminded that the "Life is rich with second chances and world provides second chances!"... whoever wrote this, "Thank you!" This gives me a different perspective... All the time... "Thank you... very much..." PS: I believe you chose the perfect interpreter for this song... >>> with so much ❤ aLLy
I think Still A Chance fits the show better. But Second Chances, in my opinion, can be seen as an inspirational song to the world and to those who take life for granted, or to those who need to find hope when they are going through great levels of struggles in their lives. At the end of the day, life is still beautiful.
For if you're always looking back, you eyes might miss the second track You take no chances, seize no day, live no possibilities. But heart's desire, hearts a fire A blaze can grow from a single ember Yesday turns toward tomorrow, a brand new circumstance What's past is past but it's not the last, We're not alive to just remember. When life has said to you, not a chance but two. Life has granted you a second chance.
Look again, that is when your world's about to change Nothing in life is so permanent that love can't rearrange. Second chances, life is rich with second chances Second songs with second dances, second melodies For if you only got one shot If all's for nothing's all you've got Your days will just be filled with single moments, single memories
Ms. Lea Salonga will be performing again this October for the Les Miserables 25th Anniversary at the O2 in London. :) This time she'll be Fantine, Cosette's mother. Good luck!
@track2 thanks for the lyrics... nice job!... just some corrections if you dont mind.... 2nd line not distance but distant.......4th line not we fight but or you fight.....:)) thanks.
+App Green they did. in the Broadway production, the song was nowhere to be found. well, just a few lines in the ending. that's it. what a pity. such a beautiful song...
But i believe hearts can conceive of more than one bright happy ending Roads may split in two, you can't go down both in fact We know and yet we still forget Our paths are never so unbending Life has given you a second chance. Second chances, the world provides with second chances New adventures, new romances, new responsibilities.
I don't think this song made it to Broadway, unfortunately. "Still a Chance" sounds like a reprise. This is just a moving song, I think! I saw the original Allegiance in San Diego where Lea sang it. It was so gripping everyone broke into tears!
It was reincarnated to Still A Chance. I do believe that Second Chances has a lot more depth and is more meaningful. But I love her vocals a lot more in Still A Chance.
jyeahlisa she's actually a disney legend. she did the singing voice of princess jasmin in animated movie aladdin and also the warrior princess fa mulan in mulan. your welcome.
When emptiness is all there is to see The joy that you once knew, a distant memory. When the purpose of each morning is forgotten with each night And it doesn't seem to matter if you give up or you fight.
As an aspiring performer, Lea provides so much inspiration. Peformers like her, Kristin Chenoweth, and Brian Stokes Mitchell really are once in a generation.
First Chance is enough for Lea Salonga because she deserves it...what a disciplined singer!
10 years later
I agree! This still give me goosebumps..
Whenever I feel down, I always go back to this video and then I am reminded that the "world provides second chances!"... 🥰
Lea is perfect.
I cried so hard at the end of this show. Absoloutely worth seeing.
There are no words! I've always been an avid follower of Lea, and this is as beautiful as ever
Please , oh please God, let this come to Broadway soon!

Just her pure and perfect voice. I love you with all my heart 😭😭😭
this is like my fifth time listening 2 this song in a row!!! Luv it!!!! She has such a beautiful voice!!!
The story, the score, the choreography, ad staging. If the story will not move you or touch your heart I don't know what can. This should be seen by everyone kids and entire family. Story about love, forgiveness, and pride.
Glad she's going to be part of the Broadway cast of Allegiance!! I wonder if this song is still gonna be in the show
Really love the lyrics, the music and the singer! Simply fabulous Ms. Lea!
Was fortunate to see the show in San Diego during it's sold our premiere run. Absolutely awesome. Have been anxiously awaiting its Broadway debut. It's destined to be a smashing success!!

I think Still A Chance fits the show better.

For if you're always looking back, you eyes might miss the second track
You take no chances, seize no day, live no possibilities.
But heart's desire, hearts a fire
A blaze can grow from a single ember
Yesday turns toward tomorrow, a brand new circumstance
What's past is past but it's not the last,
We're not alive to just remember.
When life has said to you, not a chance but two.
Life has granted you a second chance.
i love the song :)
Gorgeous song, a real treasure
Look again, that is when your world's about to change
Nothing in life is so permanent that love can't rearrange.
Second chances, life is rich with second chances
Second songs with second dances, second melodies
For if you only got one shot
If all's for nothing's all you've got
Your days will just be filled with single moments, single memories
great!
Wow! When will this music sheet music be officially released? All of these songs are phenomenal and so filled with emotion and the lyrics are amazing!
I hope after the broadway debut they'll bring it here in Manila :)
Ms. Lea Salonga will be performing again this October for the Les Miserables 25th Anniversary at the O2 in London. :) This time she'll be Fantine, Cosette's mother. Good luck!
wish i could find piano scores for this musical! i would definitely pay for that because it's worth it!
Brava! #ProudToBePinoy
@track2 thanks for the lyrics... nice job!... just some corrections if you dont mind.... 2nd line not distance but distant.......4th line not we fight but or you fight.....:)) thanks.
hope they dont take this song out, lyrics and music are simply moving.
+App Green they did. in the Broadway production, the song was nowhere to be found. well, just a few lines in the ending. that's it. what a pity. such a beautiful song...
please can someone tell me where i can get piano sheets for this musical?????!!!!!!PLEASE!!!
asdfghjkl!! Oh Lea, why so brilliant!
But i believe hearts can conceive of more than one bright happy ending
Roads may split in two, you can't go down both in fact
We know and yet we still forget
Our paths are never so unbending
Life has given you a second chance.
Second chances, the world provides with second chances
New adventures, new romances, new responsibilities.
Still one of my fave broadway songs.. too bad it didn't make it to broadway.
Did you like Still A Chance? That's the song that replaced this one. It had a piece of this song in it.
OMG
can I have the lyrics so that I could sing along?
this is what we call GINTO!
waaa... i cant find the lyric of this song. :((( anyone help me?
I don't think this song made it to Broadway, unfortunately. "Still a Chance" sounds like a reprise. This is just a moving song, I think! I saw the original Allegiance in San Diego where Lea sang it. It was so gripping everyone broke into tears!
Did this song make it to the final broadway version?
+Vin Paul unfortunately, it wasn't included. Just a few lines sung by Lea towards the end of the show. That's it.
there's a few line of this song to "Still a chance" but I love this version a lot more.
couldn't agree more.. but I think Still A Chance moves the story more..
It was reincarnated to Still A Chance. I do believe that Second Chances has a lot more depth and is more meaningful. But I love her vocals a lot more in Still A Chance.
"Welcome to youtube"
Where is the Mountain's Heart song? Why is it removed?
+Andrew Tansinsin I have no clue. I miss it.
+Andrew Tansinsin They cut it from the broadway production :'(
leanna young This Is Not Over is a wonderful song, but The Mountain's Heart will always be closer to my heart.
1 person doesn't want a second chance!
Her voice is like those singer who sings for the cartoon fairy tale. Like in disney channel
jyeahlisa she's actually a disney legend. she did the singing voice of princess jasmin in animated movie aladdin and also the warrior princess fa mulan in mulan.
your welcome.
@jyeahlisa ; she has done a lot at disney :)
This song is beautiful, but I feel like I've heard it before.
my own transcript of the lyrics:
@jyeahlisa and jasmine
@jyeahlisa shes mulan
When emptiness is all there is to see
The joy that you once knew, a distant memory.
When the purpose of each morning is forgotten with each night
And it doesn't seem to matter if you give up or you fight.
