yay!! i'm not the only filipino on this site. i love Lea Salonga singing "For Good." She sounds so amazing. I can't quite picture in my head her as Elphaba, though. I'd give anything to see that, though.

Oh, by the way, I love "Nandido Ako" too. Hehehehe

Haha, ohk, I don't know Tagalog. *hides face in shame*
But if I hear the song, I'd probably recognize it. Haha.
I'm sure I've heard "Nandito Ako" and I'm sure I love it.
Wow, I'm a terrible Filipino/Lea fan. Heh.

her voice is sooo gorgeous. hear kevin stites is in charge of orchestra for her nov 7 concert. will be a great match i think. any one know anything about what else she will sing aside from defying gravity? wondering if she will do the cut song from miss saigon, the solo version of please.

I love "In Whatever Time We Have."

She did play the Witch in Into the Woods at one point. Also many other short people have played Elphaba before, so I could definately see her playing this part. :) She's still got a fantastic voice.

As anyone gotten their Jennifer Paz CD? I order mine a few weeks back and haven't gotten it yet...

I was hoping someone would say something about "In Whatever Time We Have"! That sounds fabulous (though it didn't take much because I fell in love with Jose Llana's voice in Flower Drum Song. "Like A God"? *blush*)...

But back to the subject of the thread...I found that version interesting, and it certainly gives a person a fresh way to think of the song...As to whether Lea Salonga would work as Elphaba, I think it'd be interesting to see her take on the character, both vocally and acting-wise.

Wow! Sounds great!

yeah, but there's not much crazy belting in For Good.

I love Lea, but can she belt the high notes?

I think she'd be wonderful in Oklahoma and The Sound of Music also.
