@@stellakcole You’re welcome! Keep singing! One day you’ll cross the pond and us Europeans will be swept away by your voice. In the mean time we have RUclips and TikTok :)
I don’t have context as to know why this song hit you this hard on stage, but it most certainly hit me. Totally impressive. We all want to you to be the star of our generation. Congrats on being honest and powerful.
amazing !! you can track the emotional journey through the song so well just by your subtle acting. beautiful voice & an incredible performance!! this is now officially my favorite version of this song 🤍
Be still my Beating British Heart 🥰🇬🇧💞🇺🇸🥰Just Beautifully sang and delivered Stella👏👌✨🌟🤩 Thankyou for sharing and taking me on your Wonderfull Emotional Musical Rollercoaster story 💞🎢✨🌟✨Bravo Stella 🤩👏👏👏 x
I just discovered Company recently, and it's quickly become perhaps my favorite musical. I was getting a lump in my throat listening to this. What an honest and stellar performance!
Admittedly this is the first time I have heard this song. I love it! All of it! The way you sing it, the way your authentic expression moves the listener and that smile.
LYRICS: Someone to hold you too close Someone to hurt you too deep Someone to sit in your chair To ruin your sleep and make you aware Someone to need you too much Someone to know you too well Someone to pull you up short To put you through hell and give you support Someone you have to let in Someone whose feelings you spare Someone who, like it or not Will want you to share A little, a lot... of being alive being alive Someone to crowd you with love Someone to force you to care Someone to make you come through Who'll always be there As frightened as you Of being alive Being alive, being alive, being alive Somebody hold me too close Somebody hurt me too deep Somebody sit in my chair And ruin my sleep And make me aware Of being alive, being alive Somebody need me too much Somebody know me too well Somebody pull me up short And put me through hell And give me support For being alive Make me alive Make me alive Make me confused Mock me with praise Let me be used Vary my days But alone is alone, not alive Somebody crowd me with love Somebody force me to care Somebody make me come through I'll always be there As frightened as you To help us survive Being alive, being alive Being alive!
This video was where i heard this song for the first time, and i couldn't have asked for a better introduction. You know when a song and/or performance is so astounding that you're actually afraid to cover it? Like, you're afraid to taint it somehow, make it commonplace and mundane in your mind? This is that. The *Being Alive* zenith. It's all downhill from here, folks.
Urgency! That’s what got me in this performance. It was on point, beautifully sung and with urgency, believing every single word.
Robert I appreciate this so much! Thank you ❤️

You are a Broadway star Stella.
People will always remember how you made them feel, which is undoubtedly ALIVE. ❤ Thanks for sharing your angelic gift of voice.
Simply a masterclass performance on so many levels...Brava!

Sitting there that night I was thinking…this must be how people felt when they first saw Barbra many years ago at the Duplex. Stella was PERFECTION. ❤
This comment made my night!! Thank you thank you
@@stellakcole My pleasure, and Summer is charming😉.
Streisand never played the Duplex. She appeared at The Lion and then the Blue Angel in the Village.
Wow Stella! The emotion is just flowing out of you in this performance! Very powerful! ❤
She's not a Star, she's not a comet, but a whole Galaxy for us. ©️

That's pretty amazing... There's a lot of feelings!! That's the way to sing with your heart.. thank you... I love your interpretation! :)

LYRICS:
Someone to hold you too close
Someone to hurt you too deep
Someone to sit in your chair
To ruin your sleep
and make you aware
Someone to need you too much
Someone to know you too well
Someone to pull you up short
To put you through hell
and give you support
Someone you have to let in
Someone whose feelings you spare
Someone who, like it or not
Will want you to share
A little, a lot...
of being alive
being alive
Someone to crowd you with love
Someone to force you to care
Someone to make you come through
Who'll always be there
As frightened as you
Of being alive
Being alive, being alive, being alive
Somebody hold me too close
Somebody hurt me too deep
Somebody sit in my chair
And ruin my sleep
And make me aware
Of being alive, being alive
Somebody need me too much
Somebody know me too well
Somebody pull me up short
And put me through hell
And give me support
For being alive
Make me alive
Make me alive
Make me confused
Mock me with praise
Let me be used
Vary my days
But alone is alone, not alive
Somebody crowd me with love
Somebody force me to care
Somebody make me come through
I'll always be there
As frightened as you
To help us survive
Being alive, being alive
Being alive!
Amazing! ❤
wow. stunning performance and GORGEOUS tone!!!

Sondheim. From the musical "Company" - in case you are wondering (as I was)
Wow
What key did you sing this in?
Umm.. just wow. That's all.
someone to go for a walk...
I more like 911 lone star version
