carries stage presence is so amazing. how confident she is is just unbelievable. i sing a little bit but i wish i had more confidence on stage and things. she is unreal
Carrie, no matter how many nerves you get before going onstage just remember that you are born to be there, watching you talk to the audience and making them laugh was so brilliant and you are so good at characterisation that nobody would ever guess how worried you get! Lots of love :)
Holy crap, now I want to see Carrie as Elphaba even more. I saw the West End cast of Wicked in Dublin and was completely blown away. This is such a low key performance and it's just as amazing!
I went to see Wicked for the first time exactly a week ago and it's so incredible. I'm not that girl is one of my favourite songs from the show and you did such an amazing job? Perhaps you could be Elphie in a few years time?
I saw it for the first time earlier this year with my school. I fell absolutely in love with the whole thing but this song was definitely a highlight of the trip.
Ok so, 1st of all, crying, 2nd, I love this. I really love the way that you embody the character of any song you sing; you REALLY connect and that's a rarity, I've found!! This is amazing, the video from beginning to end, just, EVERYTHING!!!
You were born to be on stage carrie! The audience loved you! Laughing at what you said and I know they loved your voice because I'm just watching it through a screen and got shivers, you are a very credible lady xxxx
Your voice is beyond perfect, and the way you made everyone laugh several times before you started singing just shows what a loveable, wonderful person you are :) love you carrie!
You're always saying that you're really bad at being yourself on stage but you're actually hilarious at the beginning there and that just sounded like you being you!! xx
Hands touch, eyes meet Sudden silence, sudden heat Hearts leap in a giddy whirl He could be that boy But I'm not that girl Don't dream too far Don't lose sight of who you are Don't remember that rush of joy He could be that boy I'm not that girl Ev'ry so often we long to steal To the land of what-might-have-been But that doesn't soften the ache we feel When reality sets back in Blithe smile, lithe limb She who's winsome, she wins him Gold hair with a gentle curl That's the girl he chose And Heaven knows I'm not that girl Don't wish, don't start Wishing only wounds the heart I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl There's a girl I know He loves her so I'm not that girl...
I know you said in your vlog that you get super nervous before shows but if it helps, when you were talking at the start of the video you seemed really natural and funny. And of course it goes without saying that you voice is just incredible. xxx
Hey carrie, I know you probably hear this a lot but, you are my inspiration, I love you, but seriously, you have saved me quite a few times, how would you cope with depression, self harm, suicide anxiety and being bulimic. Whenever I feel so bad like everything is about to go to shame, I sit down and watch one of your videos. You have no idea how much you have saved me xx I love you xx
yayyyyy! that song is soooo underrated and yet really jumpy and low and hard to sing, you were fantastic! i love everything from wicked and i'm over the moon that i get to hear you sing these songs, even if it is just on youtube
what is so brilliant about you, carrie, is that you ARE the girl he chose "gold hair with a gentle curl" and yet you're so talented that your voice and acting bring up that terrible loss we've all felt and connect us to you, the character and the song so completely. you're beautiful and brilliant and i absolutely love watching all your videos. Hope to get the chance to see you on stage some day!
Waaait a minute... last time I checked the subscribers on Carries channel. She had 180,000... Im so proud of being part of this amazing community. You deserve way more subscribers Carrie.. at least a million more.
When you sing it gives me shivers, your voice is just ...ughhh I can't describe how amazing it is and I'm sure many hopefuls would agree with me on this xx
This is absolutely lovely, Carrie!!!! Your voice sounds so beautiful and you worked the crowd really well, I would love to come to one of your performances.
Oh my gosh this is one of the best versions of this song that I've heard. Carrie you do such an amazing job conveying emotions when you perform. it's stunning! Thanks for uploading this video. :) xx
I first saw Wicked when I was about 14 and this song felt like it was just summing up everything I felt in life at the time. I haven't listened to it for a couple of years, but you've just reminded me how much I love it! A beautiful cover (as always!) x
This will forever be one of my favourite songs from a musical. I've seen wicked 3 times but never have I heard it sung so beautifully. Gave me goosebumps and brought a tear to my eye. Your voice is incredible and the emotion you put in was just wow. Would love to see you playing elpheba one day
That song is so beautiful and holds a very dear place in my heart, as it described a situation I was in a few years back. And you sang it amazingly, to the point of bringing me to tears. Well done Carrie. And maybe one day, you will be green and singing it for reals. Much love and hugs An older Hopeful Xxx
I'm singing this for a music performance exam today and I keep coming back to your version of the song, it's incredibly sensitive and emotional and has to be my favourite cover of it
Loved this Carrie! This and the reprise have always been my favourite moments of Wicked. I've passed you twice this week/last week on my way to work .. and just wanted to say you seem just as lovely off camera as you do as on. xx
Carrie this made me cry! I miss singing and performing so much and your voice and personality makes me want to pick it up again! You are so brilliantly talented and lovely! :) x
Fell in love with this song when I first went to see wicked in 2012 and can't stop listening to it since and now my idol has sung a cover of it! Made my day! Thank you Carrie for being such an inspiration
Oh this my favourite
favourite musical theatre song and it hurts to listen
Love you!! ❤️❤️❤️
Agreed!
I know the feeling!
Dodie I love you aw
Oh, I bet you would do an amazing cover of this song!
The irony of you singing 'gold hair with a gentle curl.. that's the girl he chose and heaven knows I'm not the girl'
I think you are.
Haha I know i did feel weird singing that! xxx
***** I've just noticed that you replied to this! Thanks! xxx
Let's just all remember that Carrie posted a video of herself singing on my own before she got Eponine. LETS ALL HOPE IT HAPPENS AGAIN.
*crosses fingers* xxx
***** Still hoping for this more than anything. You would be an absolutely brilliant Elphaba.
+Lucy Scott Shouldn't Carrie get a chance to play a character who gets the guy?
+Penny Harlow Elphaba does get the guy...?
In the musical yes, but not in the book I believe.
"I don't know where they find all these green girls...." Omg I was on the floor!!!!
Carrie! You have pure talent, this is just incredible! Also loved your little opening speech, you're a comedian in the making
-A,x
woah carrie what can you not sing? please can you do a video on some singing pointers because i would do anything to sing like you xxx
Carrie as Elphaba is my dream omfg
carries stage presence is so amazing. how confident she is is just unbelievable. i sing a little bit but i wish i had more confidence on stage and things. she is unreal
This is a lovely song, and you sound great! Okay you win, I'll go see Wicked! :D x
i wanna see it so bad!
*still leading the petition for Carrie to be Elphaba*

Holy crap, now I want to see Carrie as Elphaba even more. I saw the West End cast of Wicked in Dublin and was completely blown away. This is such a low key performance and it's just as amazing!
One day I'll click on a trailer for a new disney film and you'll be a voice in it and I can't wait for that day! x
I went to see Wicked for the first time exactly a week ago and it's so incredible. I'm not that girl is one of my favourite songs from the show and you did such an amazing job? Perhaps you could be Elphie in a few years time?
I think she would be better at Elphaba to be honest.
fluffygreenball
Wut?
fluffygreenball Elphie is Elphabas nickname
I saw it for the first time earlier this year with my school. I fell absolutely in love with the whole thing but this song was definitely a highlight of the trip.
Carrie, can you upload the rest of your performances (or some of them) onto TwentyThirtyTwo? Your voice is so beautiful, cannot get enough of it!! xxx
There's only one other that could potentially go up as the rest weren't recorded in their entirety but if I upload it, it'll be uploaded here! :D xxx
Even a collage of the incomplete clips would be lovely!! I keep replaying those few seconds of Astonishing from your vlog over and over!! xx
That would be amazing! :) xxx
Ok so, 1st of all, crying, 2nd, I love this. I really love the way that you embody the character of any song you sing; you REALLY connect and that's a rarity, I've found!! This is amazing, the video from beginning to end, just, EVERYTHING!!!
Please cover As Long As You're Mine with Pete, it would be fantastic
You don't know how much I want to see that.
I NEED THIS
Basically cover ANYTHING with Pete! xx
YES! i was just about to comment the exact same thing
Although there is good chemistry between them I find is singing ability lags behinds carrie's by a fair bit.
If disney doesn't make Carrie a Disney Princess, I don't even know what they're thinking anymore
You were born to be on stage carrie! The audience loved you! Laughing at what you said and I know they loved your voice because I'm just watching it through a screen and got shivers, you are a very credible lady xxxx
Beautiful! You have mad skill and talent!
Beautiful, though I had to giggle when Carrie sang "Gold hair with a gentle curl...and heaven knows, I'm not that girl."
Your voice is beyond perfect, and the way you made everyone laugh several times before you started singing just shows what a loveable, wonderful person you are :) love you carrie!
You're always saying that you're really bad at being yourself on stage but you're actually hilarious at the beginning there and that just sounded like you being you!! xx
Hands touch, eyes meet
Sudden silence, sudden heat
Hearts leap in a giddy whirl
He could be that boy
But I'm not that girl
Don't dream too far
Don't lose sight of who you are
Don't remember that rush of joy
He could be that boy
I'm not that girl
Ev'ry so often we long to steal
To the land of what-might-have-been
But that doesn't soften the ache we feel
When reality sets back in
Blithe smile, lithe limb
She who's winsome, she wins him
Gold hair with a gentle curl
That's the girl he chose
And Heaven knows
I'm not that girl
Don't wish, don't start
Wishing only wounds the heart
I wasn't born for the rose and the pearl
There's a girl I know
He loves her so
I'm not that girl...
carrie I need you to see the full version of astonishing!!!!
I didn't sing all of it! It was part of a medley! :) xxx
*****
Could we see the medley?
I know you said in your vlog that you get super nervous before shows but if it helps, when you were talking at the start of the video you seemed really natural and funny. And of course it goes without saying that you voice is just incredible. xxx
The way that you emote in songs makes each performance that much extra beautiful. You're an inspiration, Carrie.
Goosebumps. Like actually. Beautiful Carrie x
Hey carrie, I know you probably hear this a lot but, you are my inspiration, I love you, but seriously, you have saved me quite a few times, how would you cope with depression, self harm, suicide anxiety and being bulimic. Whenever I feel so bad like everything is about to go to shame, I sit down and watch one of your videos. You have no idea how much you have saved me xx I love you xx
I got shivers from your voice... you would be perfect Elphaba, I hope that you would play her part someday, maybe in the movie in 2016?
I love your jokey intro, it made me laugh so much :)
one my favourite songs ever, absolutely beautiful
Such a beautiful cover of a gorgeous song!
I love that you like Wicked haha
