Saw her in the 90’s opposite Sean McDermott in Saigon she (& he) were flawless.
Lea is Lea, no one can surpass her achievements at Ms. Saigon as Kim.
I know many would disagree with me, but Eva Noblezada takes the spot for me. Her voice is MADE for Kim. It just sounds so pure
No@@sift954
@@sift954lea salonga is much better vocal than Eva.
She will always be the best Kim
She is irreplaceable!!!
I LOVE THIS! I Love the Asian Ellen! It makes it all make so much sense that he comes to America and finds a substitute for Kim with another Asian woman
i was there...she was so nervous
really? omg how do you know
@@dianabarren2077 u can tell. But she still did a good job
@@dianabarren2077 she barely hit the high note during “i have a heart like the sea”
@@royperez8965Basically almost every high notes she barely hit. She also cracked a note during “I Still Believe.” Her voice wasn’t doing too well during her first few weeks, perhaps it’s the cold weather, but it did eventually improve as time went on.
yes i have full show audio somewhere. @@saignnmoments
Will chase was fine as hell back then 😦
Miss Saigon is getting old.
It was an ok production. The hype and controversy and most especially Filipino casting were what made the musical successful. The music was so so. The only memorable iconic number was American Dream, it was classically Broadway.
Maybe it’s time for a sequel. Like Tam all grown up in America.
But Lea is indeed a great singer. She knows how to control her voice like an instrument. She may not be able to hit the highest pitch but she can definitely find a way to imitate that note or chord with such expertise.
Pryce and Salonga carried the original show.
Still the cocky Lea. She tends to be overacting most of the time. 😁😁😁
Being praised so young, it isn't common. Oh, for sure. She's a perfectionist
Forgot to add: She became perfectionist her aunt and mom were the ones that suggested the idea of singing. Her mom being very strict so hence, you get Lea
I kinda agree with you though, she has that overly pride cocky thing ahah
