Masterful performance. Perfect control of her instrument, and the use of different textures, phrasing and dynamics. Beautiful rendition.
I agree.
It’s brilliant. She makes it her own-distinct from Stephanie Mills legendary version-that is no small feat.
Saw the stage production last night and she was PHENOMENAL. Her vocals at the age of 24 were mind blowing. She really carried the entire show like she’s been doing this forever.
Such a fresh face and talent were being introduced to. Something in her vibe, voice and face reminds me of Naturi Naughton.
Can’t stand when people compare one artist to another. Each is unique in their own way.
Christ, what a voice! She definitely has a bright future ahead of her ok Broadway!
Love Broadway!! I try and see 3 shows a year! My goal this year is to watch 6 or more shows, but they get a little expensive
@@javiruiz8365 I get it. This past month I’ve been looking at tix for when I go on a trip to NYC, and the prices were nuts!
It is Christ in her! 😊
I saw her in San Francisco... and let me tell you, Dorothy gets NO REST. Her songs are some fo the most vocally demanding of a lead I've seen in a long long time.Maybe not since Tina Turner role int he TT Musical. She is in the stratosphere 80% of the songs. And Ms. Lewis absolutely KILLS IT. Bravo future tony nominee!
The first show I saw on Broadway. I still knew this song by heart. Nechelle kills it ❤
Me too! With Stephanie Mills as Dorothy. Good times!
Just imagine hearing the full orchestra behind this wonderful voice! You definitely have to see it in person.
I had the privilege to be seated 12th row center at the Fabulous Fox Theatre when this production made its stop in Atlanta a few weeks ago. This closes the show and it was an electrifying, explosive experience. What a moment. What a talent.
I think Stephanie Mills would be proud of this rendition.
She’s Fabulous! The Whitney Houston rendition will always have a special place in my heart ❤️
Actually.. It's DIANA ROSS from the big theater motion picture The Wiz that made this song memorable... Go look at the movie clip on RUclips of HOME from motion picture The Wiz by Diana Ross.. Nothing compares to Diana's version with either music or emotion
@@michaelgrant7322 I just had to comment. I saw the Wiz back in the 70"s with Stephanie Mills as Dorothy. She will always bring me to tears singing "Home". By the way, at 67 years of age, Stephanie Mills ends her concert with this song and still bring me to tears. P.S. , I just saw the revival of The Wiz on April 24, on Broadway. This version is great too!
@@lindawashington9869 Yes, I'm sorry Stephanie Mills made this her song.
@@BKQ718 I am glad you have taste! Stephanie Mills has set the bar too high. No one can take her crown!
@@michaelgrant7322it’s actually the lovely miss stephanie mills she was the original Dorothy on the wiz broadway in the 1970s before the movie came out
Saw Nichelle last night at the final San Diego show, she is amazing live 😭.
Saw the show in Tempe. Every song had vocal moments that you usually get like, once in a Broadway show. Insane singing
Just saw The Wiz in SD the entire cast was amazing!! Bravo!!
This is the new definitive Dorothy!! Nichelle, you got this !!!!!!! You make me feel like I am journeying into the story that I grew up with!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
What the kids say... She ate and left no crumbs!!!!!
That performance moved me to tears!!
Nichelle Lewis is breathtaking!!
i was on the fence about revisiting this Broadway musical that i enjoyed decades ago . ms Lewis convinced me to buy tickets immediately
I'm seeing The Wiz in San Francisco tonight.
im sure you will have fun
A beautiful voice! I must keep her in mind.
Woo wee. I expected the Stephanie Mills version. This young woman ate.that.song.up. I love how she made it her own. What vocal range. Her voice made my body shiver. #lookatgod
As many times as I’ve watched this I wish an audience was there to give her a standing ovation, cause she sang the heck out of this song!!
There was a FULL AUDIENCE there!!!😁
This clearly was not performed in front of an audience @@antoinesmith6753
❤😊. Bravo young lady. Beautiful job.
Wowowowowowowowowowowow. She is truly THE next star or Broadway! Tony award winning performance right here. She will CERTAINLY be getting a Tony Nomination.
Snubbed😢
Wonderful singing with piano accompaniment by Joseph Joubert.
I got to see this production and it changed my life! Thanks for sharing your talents and gifts! ❤that goes to everyone on that team ❤
She’s a star!
Wowza
I really like how everyone can sing this song in their own way. While Diana is my favorite, I like the runs Nichelle did on this song to suit her voice. I don’t like when people try to sound the same.
This performance was beautiful, but my favorite performance of this wonderful song #Home will always be #StephanieMills, & that's because her version of #Home is #PerfectionAtItsFinest & will always be that moment in my lifetime!!! 💜🌹💯

A truly splendid voice. Beautiful performance.
This is a beautiful iconic rendition of this iconic song. I see why this young lady got the lead role to play the new Dorothy. She really makes it her own song. A very difficult thing to do for such a famous role.
I love Broadway performance😢😊❤.
Wow❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
HAD MY TIX SINCE NOVEMBER 2023!!!🎂🎉🥳🎊
CAN'T WAIT!!! Much love, SF, CA🙋🏾🌉

An amazing cast working with her, Avery Wilson, Deborah Cox, Kyle Freeman. It will be a hit all over again. RIP Hinton Battle. 💕
I am literally crying 😭. I'm so buying tickets to this
Ok miss lady..way to find your own lane on a treasured classic 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
*YES!!*
💜
Powerful!!!!! ♥♥♥♥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Do things for people not because of who they are or what they do in return, but because of who you are.
Just finding out this is my cousin.. beautiful performance!
I saw her the first night of Broadway previews. She FEASTED! The whole audience was NOT expecting it because they ERUPTED when the song ended. It was truly a pleasure.
LOVE HER
She gave me chills. Only one singer has done this and that was Whitney Houston. 🙃🙂🥹🥰
Stephanie Mills also
@@jeralenebirchNo one can sing this song like Stephanie Mills, not Diana Ross, or Whitney Houston. I said it.
We just saw The Wiz on Broadway today 7/31/24 and the young lady who played Dorothy was good but Stephanie Mills has such a unique, powerful voice and did something so special with this song that I can't get her version out of my head. I wanted to hear it sound just the way Stephanie sings it but it definitely didn't. Shame on me though because they're 2 different vocalists so they're not going to sound exactly the same. We still enjoyed ourselves. Overall the play was amazing!
Loved everything about this performance...but it seemed slightly rushed. Like the old timers used to say, "Take your time!" Otherwise...Ms. Lewis performance was immaculate! So technically sound, high quality, emotional, dramatic...accompaniment was perfect!
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
👏👏👏👏
한국에서 더 위즈를 볼 수 있는 날이 꼭 왔으면 좋겠다😭 어떤 작품인지 너무 궁금하고 특히 이번 리바이벌이 너무 궁금해 ㅠㅠ
There's gonna be a soundtrack album of this version, right?
It’s called a Cast Recording. And probably.
It’s interesting . If her voice is representative of the new black performers it’s interesting how it’s melded the “broadway” theater voice with the “gospel” sound. And no I am not attacking or denigrating her I just find it interesting that I’m hearing the broadway sound melding with the gospel sound in her voice. It’s a different kind of voice/sound. I find it fascinating
Now that's how you sing that song!!!
Voice from God ❤
How can one question if there is a GOD⁉️ How cynical to think talent like this and in others is just by chance or of some random explosion. The Gift of Voice, Dance, Intelect, and ingenuity, are remarkable signs of an omniscient Being beyond our comprehension. Nechelle (& the rest of the cast present and prior) You are Blessed and we are further blessed to witness you SHINE 🙏 🌟🙏
I REMEMBER THIS SONG SUNG BY STEPHAINE MILLS.THIS REMAKE SOUNDS VERY GREAT.SHES GOING A GREAT JOB OF SINGING HER SONG.
She definitely made that song her own.
Stephanie Mills I know is overjoyed by her vocals
Why is the revival slowing down all the songs?
I feel like the music was too fast, most live versions of this song are a lot slower.
Still love Diana Ross' version of "Home!"
Her beautiful face reminds me of Jennifer Hudson.
I love how Nichelle gives this song her own spin👏🏽didnt try to sound like Stephanie Mills or Diana Ross.
Ok I get it now lol
She looks just like Rudy . Why didn't y'all just let Rudy up there 🙄 Rudy has vocals too you know
Stunning.
Brava, Star! 👏🏽
Had a chance to Check out “the wiz” Atlanta’s version #Lemonpepper … that version of home was EXCEPTIONAL!!!
She is not Stephanie Mills
Whoopi looks better every time i see her ❤❤❤❤❤ 😊😊😊
Nothing against her...I'm going to keep it 100...DIANA ROSS AND STEPHANIE MILLS...BLESSINGS...REAL TALK!!!
Stephanie for sure. Diana 😬
nope, this girl is amazing
Excellent voice but she's no Stephanie Mills or Shanice
I dont think she’s trying to be! Stop comparing women to each other…. there’s a space for all of them and their excellence!!!! ❤
@@ArtistsReceivingKnowledge they always do that with Black women. I never see them say that with white women "oh she's no Christina Aguilera" lol You never see that. I find White women are ALLOWED TO and are CELEBRATED in their differences.
@@Scoutbq1l Is Christina Aguilera considered white? Either way, white women singers get compared to each other just as much, if not more. Britney and Christina were constantly being compared to each other. Go to videos on Wicked, Funny Girl or any Broadway show with iconic female characters, and you will see with it. Do you think Adele doesn't get compared to Amy Winehouse? The white girls get compared to black women too; e.g., Beyonce vs. Taylor Swift, Whitney vs. Celine Dion, etc.
😳
Sorry, but I dont like this rendition. I want to hear the melody and the proper pacing and instrumentation. But I am still going to see the show and support as it is 1 of my faves.
Besutiful voice but dunno how I feel about her singing this song. Something didnt quite fit
Too hard … pull back
It’s shaky! 😊
This arrangement is horrible. Way too fast. Very rushed.
She look like CYNTHIA E. a clone even....yup
Classic case of OVERSINGING. This song is delicate and full of emotion. More acting, less runs, boo. What a waste!
A thousand times more delicate than Idina Menzel
What runs? Do you know what a run is? Her runs were subtle and infrequent.
@@Scoutbq1l 😁😁😁
