I love the Hunchback of Notre Dame! I’ve read both the original story and seen the Disney film. Although the Disney version is toned down, I still think it’s one of the darkest Disney movies! Anyway, Esmeralda; for the most I don’t care for many of her voices, but there are a few who I adore- Norwegian, English, French, Turkish, Italian, Canadian French, Icelandic & Swedish!
Esmeralda is such a difficult character to rank...almost universally agreed upon in the youtube circle that it's really hard. But watching this video made me realize there are actually quite a few interesting voices...maybe someday I'll try my hand at ranking. Maybe. Someday. Like a few in the top 10 that I like and never knew. What the heck is this, Czech&Slovak? Both sound very different from what I've grown to expect from Czech&Slovak. Then Portuguese&Cantonese, had no clue I liked them either. I guess GHTO is a song that takes some getting used to, with its heavy slow tempo, but it's got some great dubs.
I don't know why but I knew that italian, turkish and norwegian versions were in high: are the best. I agree with number 1 and 2, but I had prefered italian at 3th. Thank you for 4th place :) But you forgotten malay version. Will you do a ranking about Frollo?
Such a beautiful and outstanding video! You know, every time I watch your rankings a feel something... I don't really know how to express it. Like... I don't know... like I am touched in a different, unique way. Especially when it comes to the top 15 ,where some of the comments make me smile or even have a tear. Like with your comment on your first place! I felt like crying while reading! So much sweetness and appreciation. I agree that the Norwegian Esmeralda is one of the kind! Thank you very much for the 15th place. :')
I put Ricky, Ekaterina, Tisa, Mun Hui-Gyeong, Pusacha, Rossanah, Fernanda, Heidi, Sol, Allkistis, Lara higher I put Àngels, Ute, Gihan, Anna, Vera, Yáng Kūn, Tiina, Sharon, May lower

12. swedish: ''she's really sweet in the first part of the song an(d) at the end'' small typo haha i can't believe how much i agree with you, thank you so much for the 19th place c:
Benedicte makes Esmeralda look real. I listened to her voice and finally I thought not about Disney personality but a real young woman of angelic soul. I heard despair, I heard grieve and eternal beauty of hope.
Thank you very much :) I'm glad you like what I say about Edda, and really glad you like a bit my version, she's really dear to me ! Thanks :) I don't think I'll do Thumbelina becasue I don't like this movie and this princess, and her voices don't interest me. I wanted to do Odette, but after getting a strike because of two videos of The Swan Princess, I really don't know ...
charguigou hahaha no problomo, Well I agree that Thumblina is not a very good movie, but I like some of the songs (especially soon) But yeah Thumbelina is kind of a boring carater. Of ofc.. sorry :/ Well I can't wait 2 see you next ranking :D
aglt ie Yes she is :) But I'm a bit disappointed because I realized Meg isn't my fav role of Selma, she doesn't sing with much power in this song, she remains soft all along. Only her voice is strong and deep that's why it doesn't render really weak. But don't worry she's still gonna be high lol ^^
Esmeralda's voices don't easily catch my attention easily; but they are also one of the most angelic and vocally strong voices of all princesses. I personally would've kept Hungarian, Arabic [best role IMO], Dutch/Flemish, English and probably Slovak, French & Portuguese lower.....
First of all, great ranking!! Top 10 is absolutely fabulous, Benedicte worths to be the winner! Thank you for the 15th place, I have listened almost every song of Alkistis and in all she sings with the same way, sweet then powerful and then back again. She did the same as Mother Gothel.
OMG! First, thanks for 15th and when I am hearing the Greek version I feel I am listening one of Alkistis' songs. I actually don't like her music but I think the specific song fits her style.
Hi charguigou :D nice ranking and great video! I just want to tell you that there is Malay version in UA-cam! May I know which place do you want to place her? :D
Ooh, you missed Malay. Then again, it did just come out, like on Monday. No offense, but I wish there'd been a technical error so you could have added. But, as it is, this is amazing. Ty
Really Great Ranking, Thank you for 26th place! (Korean) She is one of my favorite... So I disagree with her. German version - Ute Lemper - I'm not a fan of her. I don't dislike Ute, but she is one of my least favorite, too. And I totally agree with your number one, Norwegian version is my number one, too! Nice editing, I love you very much!

i can't believe how much i agree with you, thank you so much for the 19th place c:
I always make typo :/ Even though I check twice the video before rendering it, once more before I upload it, and again once when it's uploaded >
Benedicte makes Esmeralda look real. I listened to her voice and finally I thought not about Disney personality but a real young woman of angelic soul. I heard despair, I heard grieve and eternal beauty of hope.
This really is a great ranking!! Though we have some disagreements we almost like the same voices. It was really wonderful what you said about Edda
Thank you very much :) I'm glad you like what I say about Edda, and really glad you like a bit my version, she's really dear to me !
Thanks :)
I don't think I'll do Thumbelina becasue I don't like this movie and this princess, and her voices don't interest me. I wanted to do Odette, but after getting a strike because of two videos of The Swan Princess, I really don't know ...

aglt ie yes I like the song Soon, that's why I'm considering making one, I don't know, I'll see if I have time
Allright, is Meg next on your list? :)
aglt ie Yes she is :) But I'm a bit disappointed because I realized Meg isn't my fav role of Selma, she doesn't sing with much power in this song, she remains soft all along. Only her voice is strong and deep that's why it doesn't render really weak. But don't worry she's still gonna be high lol ^^
Thank you so much for 1st place (:
Esmeralda's voices don't easily catch my attention easily; but they are also one of the most angelic and vocally strong voices of all princesses.
I personally would've kept Hungarian, Arabic [best role IMO], Dutch/Flemish, English and probably Slovak, French & Portuguese lower.....
My version is between Swedish and Danish....What an honor XD
Thanks for my version!
Moi, j'adore personnellement la version française, slovaque et suédoise
Moi je préfère l'italien , l'allemand et le hongrois ce sont les plus belles langues religieuses pour moi
Yay! Benedicte! All the childhood feels and she's just perfect!
She's just awesome !
Thank's for the 3rd place ;)
First of all, great ranking!! Top 10 is absolutely fabulous, Benedicte worths to be the winner!

It would be great :)
No sorry, I don’t know his voices
Ok that last comment on number 1 almost made me tear up. Amazing.
Haha thank you :)
Hi charguigou :D nice ranking and great video! I just want to tell you that there is Malay version in UA-cam! May I know which place do you want to place her? :D
I don't know, I'm not really used to her now
Ooh, you missed Malay. Then again, it did just come out, like on Monday. No offense, but I wish there'd been a technical error so you could have added. But, as it is, this is amazing. Ty
Yes, Malay went out after this video. She would be placed around Indonesian, for the same reason, though I think she can grow in me
Thanks for 1st❤️❤️
Merci pour la version québécoise ^^ J'ai toujours aimé Lara Fabian et pour moi, elle sera toujours Esmeralda :)
"a strong reference to the gay people coming out of the closet"
Been a while since I saw this movie, but... where?!)
The character of Quasimodo would be a reference to gay people, especially with the song "out there"
charguigou
Ah, I see. Well, that makes sense, I guess...
Really Great Ranking, Thank you for 26th place! (Korean)
She is one of my favorite...
So I disagree with her.
German version - Ute Lemper - I'm not a fan of her. I don't dislike Ute, but she is one of my least favorite, too.
And I totally agree with your number one, Norwegian version is my number one, too!
Nice editing, I love you very much!
