@@labellavita12 Yep, correct. She already did The Little Mermaid and Tarzan before she was advised/urged by not only Lea but also other colleagues in the music industry to audition in Miss Saigon, and she heed.
Rachelle Ann actually didn't audition for The Little Mermaid. The director picked her and said that among young biriteras in the Philippines Rachelle has the clearer and clean voice. But she doesnt have proper training at all before she went to Ms. Saigon. Her voice is really expensive.
This performance is from the 25th Anniversary concert of MISS SAIGON. Lea was 18 when she first played Kim in MISS SAIGON, so she is 43 here. Rachelle Ann Go is 15 years younger than Lea. The song is arranged slightly differently from the way it's done in the show and of course, Lea isn't singing it the way she originally sang it in the show (as a virginal 17-year-old Vietnamese girl). I will say that Lea has great vocal chemistry with lots of singers. I'm a big fan of a lot of her collaborations. You should check out Lea and Rachelle Ann Go singing "I Know Him So Well" (in 2019 - 5 years after this 25th anniversary concert), Lea and Josh Groban singing "All I Ask of You" and "The Prayer" (I'd like to see you do both songs including their banter in-between), Lea and Brad Kane recording the original "A Whole New World" and then singing the song 23 years later on Good Morning America, Lea and Michael Ball singing "A Little Fall of Rain" from the 10th anniversary LES MISERABLES concert, Lea and Liz Callaway singing "I Still Believe" in Lea's 2005 Carnegie Hall concert.
Rachelle Ann Go began as a pop star in the Philippines and moved on to musical theater with a little coaxing from the original Kim herself, Lea Salonga who played the title role in Miss Saigon in 1989 at the West End and then, on Broadway. Rachelle played the lead bar girl, Gigi van Trahn at the West End revival of the musical in 2014 and played Fantine in Les Miserables in 2015 also in the UK. Rachelle later played the role of Eliza Schuyler in the West End production of Hamilton from 2017-19. Lea Salonga continues to do solo concerts internationally and performs on Broadway during theater seaon.
these kind of singers were so talented even before formally trained. also, Filipino singers are musical chameleons yet so humble. they gracefully match up with other musical artists whether a band or an orchestra or another singer. they don't see it as competition, they work well with other artists...amazing!
Lea is such a gem. I got the chance to see her in Miss Saigon in the Philippines in year 2000 and what a performance. Hope I could see her perform again live, even on concerts.
An iconic song from the musical, Miss Saigon. I had the opportunity to see the Broadway version of Miss Saigon. Ms. Rachelle Ann Go is one of the current Filipina singers who has left an indelible imprint on the world stage for her singing abilities and is considered an international Musical theatre star. She has also performed in various hit musicals in the Philippines, London's West End, and Broadway. Her debut was in The Little Mermaid, playing the role of Ariel in 2011, for which she won the Best Actress award from Broadway World Philippine Awards; and another in 2013 for Tarzan, playing the role of Jane Porter. Go's theater career continued as she was cast in the 2014 West End revival of the hit musical Miss Saigon, for the role of Gigi Van Tranh. Following this, she was cast in the 30th-anniversary staging of Les Misérables in the role of Fantine. She then made her Broadway debut reprising the role of Gigi in the Broadway revival of Miss Saigon in March 2017. Rachelle Ann Go played the role of Eliza Hamilton in the original West End production of Hamilton by Lin-Manuel Miranda. She was specially invited to perform at the 2019 World Food Prize Laureate Award Ceremony, held in the magnificent Iowa State Capitol Building in Des Moines on October 17, 2019. The ceremony was broadcast live statewide on Iowa Public Television. Cheers...American_Filipino here on the West Coast of the USA.😊😊😁😁😎😎
Ms. Lea - very theatrical voice / perfection Rachelle Anne - theatrical voice with a combination of a popstar voice LOVE THEM BOTH!! I bet you will also love Ms. Lea singing defying gravity on quarantine (the one where she wears a blue shirt) and also when she sings, Human heart live in a studio.
Listening to these two equally (almost, Lea being the best) talented Filipinas are indeed very heartwarming. Me as a Filipina too is very proud for them. Bravo!!!👏👏👏
I think something that’s really profound here is also these women passing on a story that they are holding for the women in Vietnam who experiences or died in the war.
Thank you for your RV...and for always supporting Filipino Artists. Please kindly react on Lea Salonga's live version of 'Don't cry for me Argentina". You'll also like it. Thank you. More power to your channel. God bless.
There will only be one and only Kim…. Lea Salonga. There has been amazing and great Kim’s but Lea Salonga is… KIM. She will always and forever be the standard that all others will be compared to but can never be surpassed. Musical theater legend. Disney musical legend. Living national treasure of the Philippines.
Leah Salonga is the one encourages Rachelle Ann Go to do musical.....thank you guys for your reaction... Please do check out on Lani Misalucha the Asia Nightingale, when Mariah Carey held a concern here in Manila, they supposed to have a face off, they will sing “When You Believe" the concert pushed thru but the duet didnt, when Mariah Carey learn that Lani Misalucha has a 4-5 octave vocal range and has the same whistle register, Mariah opted to remove the duet with Lani Misalucha, please do check on her and you will know why(?), she is one of my favorite singer here in the Philippines 😊😊
I was just lucky to watched Ms Lea Salonga in Les Miserables/Ms Saigon in NY.,there were tears in our face the moment she started singing ..that was my best memories of stage music till to date..We ❤ you LEA SALONGA!!
You have to commend how healthy their techniques are. If you're going to sing 8 shows a week, that's how one should sing. These two can belt out those high notes especially Rachell Ann Go who can go supersonic with her whistle note, but they chose the healthy way to sing and that helps in preserving their voices.
In 2000 Lea was 29! Already over 10 years since she originated the role of Kim! This concert was 2014 - 25 years after the original Miss Saigon. Lea is 43 here.
I wish you could have seen all of Lea’s portion of this 25th anniversary concert. It took place after a performance of MISS SAIGON. There is a great reveal to start it. The 2nd number was this one. Note: right where you ended the video Lea said, “OK. Now back to me!” And then Lea introduces her original leading man (Simon Bowman), they start to sing “The Last Night of the World,” and then the revival leads come out to join them. There’s a bit more but I won’t spoil it in case someone can send you the video!!!
Lea’s first time performing professionally was age 7 in The King and I (not a lead, but a tiny featured part). Lea’s first lead was Annie at age 9 and she did the show again at age 12. I am betting that the vids floating around of Lea in Annie are from the later production, though Lea did win much acclaim for her first time in the lead role.
They made me cry 😢It’s proven we have a very talented singers actress and singers, I know Lea Salonga when she was very young age 7 or 9 yrs old, she’s really good . About Rachel Ann Go, I don’t know what years she started, but she’s really good too, what an awesome duet,so perfect amazing bravo👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️
Sarah G came first before her But Rachelle Ann has a ability of power belting sold many albums she became famous first.She leave her carrer to pursue her ultimate dream Miss Saigon and she made it..I see Lea's eyes how she so proud of rachelle😍Proud of being Filipino💯🇵🇭
combination of leah and rachels.voices on stage truly is magical . though i have to say both your beards and staches are beyond magical seems to me like their mystical . props to you for featuring this one .
I know that it's been stated already in the comments that Lea Salonga was the OG Kim for Miss Saigon there is a documentary out there called Finding Kim which goes through the journey the producers/crew went through to find just the right person for the role, eventually landed on Lea, Thus beginning her rise to becoming a Broadway/West End LEGEND
Lea played as Kim in the span of 10 years on and off so she was too familiar of this role, making her portrayal so effective plus she started at 17 which made her innocent in real life. She didn't do any tour production for Kim just in the Westend, broadway and just the Philippines because that's where she is from then closed the broadway production in New York.
Josh you made mention of Rain, cover band for Beatles. There is a Filipino counterpart and I swear it won't disappoint. They are called REO brothers they cover mostly Beatles songs but also does bee gees, dire straits, beach Boys etc. Check them out!!!
Lea is priceless combination of beautiful face, personality and pristine voice. Rachel has great voice just did not get to know her enough as Lea because Lea was almost my time and maybe that's why I am biased thinking Lea would be really almost impossible to follow. I lost track on Ms Saigon sequel getting other Filipino talents. Hope they got to win too. Lea should be a national gem of a singer. Millions knew her and really brought pride to our country.
Sun and Moon and The Last Night of The World duet from Ms Saigon Leah Salonga and Simon Bowman please please please . Doesn't matter which version old or new . Just perfect every single time ❤ thank you 🙂
How about Ella Nympha’s cover of Wonderful Tonight next time? And/or James Reid’s soda on the WishBus (SB19 did a cover of his Huwag Ka Nang Humirit a few years ago).
In this Siilver Anniversary tribute show, Lea and Rachelle were singing counterpoint assuming two different characters, both working as competing prostitutes in a bar but agreeing on how their American clients can get them out of Saigon. Rachele was given the license to have her "pop" music training come out JUST for this show. Lea was invited back for this show to sing her original role in the musical M8ss Saigon, being the original leading lady.
Oh, Rachelle ♥ And I love not only that Lea didn't hold back her own reaction and appreciation but that, later in the song where her part echoes Rachelle's, she let that moment alone and didn't pick it up or compete with it, as others might have (not sure I'm getting my thought across well; sorry). And we got to share it with them!
Knowing Rachelle’s singing style before I would think that she’s not fit to do musicals. She’s more of a typical biritera and rakista but I was amazed when I heard the news that she was picked for Miss Saigon. Her voice is really one of a kind. Inaabangan ko talaga sya dati sa ASAP together with other singers
Lea has the training in musicale, Rachelle has none...so you can't compare them...Lea is there, irreplaceable...but Rachelle has her own vocal power...she won't be able to win a singing contest if she does'nt have that power vocals too.
Come on guys Lea Salonga is a Disney Legend the singing voices of jasmine on the alladin movie and the singing voice of mulan from the mulan movie. An A list Broadway and Westend Actor.
Trivia: Rachel used to look up to/idolized Lea. She used to be a belter and auditioned for the role of Kim in Miss Saigon but she was not accepted at first because of her diction. She continued rehearsing and finally, convinced by Lea, she "is" reaping what she'd sown for the longest time!
She only audition once as kim. When saigon came here in the philipines for casting. Her age is issue, they want the real 18 yrs old kim. Rachelle was already 28 that was 2014. Because they really want rachelle part of the cast they emailed her to audition in london as gigi. And that was cameron personally amaze her talent and the rest is history why shes gigi fantine and eliza also shes part of broadway cast which is really hard to get as if she is an asian🤗
She was just 18 yrs old when she won Tony Awards..” movie from my mind “ Miss Saigon..the only Filipino who reach Tony and Oscar awards opening ceremony singing “a whole new world “. you can listen to Miss Salonga “ Reflection “ Mulan
Well said sir! I muchly appreciated your heartfelt highly c0mmentary to my Queen Morissette. Thanks for the love and support to Queen Mori wirh your so many reactions already to her which means you love her music.
Lea Salonga is the first Asian to win a Tony Award and the singing voice of both Princess Jasmine and Mulan. If that's not talent, then I don't know what is. 😊
Fall in love with another rendition of Broadway songs from the two of Philippines' finest, Martin Nieverra and Regine Velasquez. Here's the link, ua-cam.com/video/ypnXl7VQESM/v-deo.html. I'm sure, this jaw dropping performance will leave you in awe! Thanks!
You know Lea’s choice to take her place is Sarah Geronimo but she was busy so Rachel took the place. Lea won the Tony award which is I believe the highest award for an artist.
To take her place? She's always supportive of ANY Filipino artist so don't single it out so she was also happy that it was Eva who is half Fil who got the role for the revival. Like passing a crown to a fellow Fil and she was eyeing Rachelle even before Miss Saigon when she saw her performed in Little Mermaid, the reason why she asked Rachelle Ann to audition. Don't give out wrong information.
Goodluck with Sarah. I mean, Sarah is good but could never survive an 8-day shows a week coz her voice is never meant for theater! Rachelle was never a second choice. Lea both loved Rachelle and Sarah so don't make up stories. Lol
It was actually Lea who told Rachel that she should do musical theater instead of pop songs! Really glad she listened to her!❤
It was Lea who asked her to audition for Miss Saigon revival but Rachelle Ann's already tried doing local musical theatre.
@@labellavita12 Yep, correct. She already did The Little Mermaid and Tarzan before she was advised/urged by not only Lea but also other colleagues in the music industry to audition in Miss Saigon, and she heed.

the Kim that Lea Salonga truly is. She let Rachelle Ann Go shines and very proud for the latter. The Great Lea Salonga!

Lea still manages to make me tear up whenever I hear her singing content from Miss Saigon or Les Mis. She is so amazing.
The definitive Kim. Nothing beats Lea in this role. She sets the bar so high.
I totally agree with you.
I agree... I love Lea
Lea is the one and only Lea, and the Tony/Larry award winning Kim. I agree.
Can't beat the origonal Kim!
Forever Lea here. But Rachel Ann Go is also a very talented artist. Love both of them! Thank you for this reaction. Always watching your channel.
Incredible performance by Lea and Rachelle Ann.

Watched Miss Saigon in the Phils year 2000 and Lea was really young then and was really good, thats 23 years ago and shes still good❤

Lea started young in musicals. She played Annie when she was just a little girl; pretty sure there’s a YT vid of it.

isn't it amazing how lea belted it but still lyrics and every words are so clear .. ❤❤❤
The smile on Josh's face whenever Lea opens her mouth to sing.. Lea really is the best Kim.
This two talented ..proud Filipino here❤
Lea played as Kim in the span of 10 years on and off so she was too familiar of this role, making her portrayal so effective plus she started at 17 which made her innocent in real life.

Rachel Ann Go and Sarah Geronimo are best friends. They always sing together in ASAP it is a variety show. If you wanna watch them.

Love watching your guys' reactions. Entertaining, and learning alot too.
Listening to this... I just want to raise our flag 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭
Knowing Rachelle’s singing style before I would think that she’s not fit to do musicals. She’s more of a typical biritera and rakista but I was amazed when I heard the news that she was picked for Miss Saigon. Her voice is really one of a kind. Inaabangan ko talaga sya dati sa ASAP together with other singers
goosebumps!!!!
Music comes from the heart and singing is the highest form of prayer.
Yes their mics were on top both of them 😊
Thank you so much for your reaction.
Real singers, nourished Mori when she was starting ...
Please do a review on Lea Salong's Eponine piece during Les Miserables 25th year.
Lea has the training in musicale, Rachelle has none...so you can't compare them...Lea is there, irreplaceable...but Rachelle has her own vocal power...she won't be able to win a singing contest if she does'nt have that power vocals too.
All I'm going to say is that I was lucky to have witnessed Lea play Kim in Miss Saigon once in my lifetime.
So good 👏👏👏👏👏
🚗 🎤 thank you josh, lucas, and the rest of the gkd team.

Trivia: Rachel used to look up to/idolized Lea. She used to be a belter and auditioned for the role of Kim in Miss Saigon but she was not accepted at first because of her diction. She continued rehearsing and finally, convinced by Lea, she "is" reaping what she'd sown for the longest time!
Lol not true.
She only audition once as kim. When saigon came here in the philipines for casting.
Her age is issue, they want the real 18 yrs old kim. Rachelle was already 28 that was 2014. Because they really want rachelle part of the cast they emailed her to audition in london as gigi.
And that was cameron personally amaze her talent and the rest is history why shes gigi fantine and eliza also shes part of broadway cast which is really hard to get as if she is an asian🤗
Had no idea that Bardem started doing reaction videos. Cool.

Rachael Ann Go and Eva Noblezada "The movie in my mind".
You know Lea’s choice to take her place is Sarah Geronimo but she was busy so Rachel took the place. Lea won the Tony award which is I believe the highest award for an artist.
To take her place? She's always supportive of ANY Filipino artist so don't single it out so she was also happy that it was Eva who is half Fil who got the role for the revival. Like passing a crown to a fellow Fil and she was eyeing Rachelle even before Miss Saigon when she saw her performed in Little Mermaid, the reason why she asked Rachelle Ann to audition. Don't give out wrong information.
Goodluck with Sarah. I mean, Sarah is good but could never survive an 8-day shows a week coz her voice is never meant for theater! Rachelle was never a second choice. Lea both loved Rachelle and Sarah so don't make up stories. Lol
Lol. Sarah cant sing broadway
Rachelle is better than sarah
You cut the part where Lea said "now back to me" at the end HAHAHAHHA
