Yeah, that clip is great too. She's always like that, so down to earth. That's what makes her even more amazing. Just the girl nextdoor. I'm lucky; I'm Dutch and understand both English and German (mostly), so I can understand all of her interviews. :) I really hope to meet her once, and see her perform als Elphaba ever again, When I went to see Wicked, I had her understudy. :( Small chance, but gotta keep some hope right?
Jake Zelmore I can understand that. Hope to get that chance too once. Living in The Netherlands would give me a bigger chance meeting her. However, she's abroad most of the time. She has planned to perform at 'Musicals in Concert' (Amsterdam, Ziggo Dome, November 15, 2014), but don't really like concerts in stadiums, bad sound. That, and I don't have the money for those tickets right now... want to go to one of her solo shows one day. :)
Like literally she is perfection. Her riffs and the clarity and in her voice and the fact that she was flipping between 3 languages so SEAMLESSLY. She is posh and beautiful and perfection.
Wow...Ik had nooit gedacht dat ze zulke mooie riffjes kon doen...ik sta gewoon met mijn mond vol tandjes...kijk maar.... Petje af Willemijn... te gek gewoon!
Yes you can. It is the beauty of technology! Everything is separate and then put together at the end. They usually record the instruments first, and then have the singers sing over it. That is what they did here. They had the instrumental playing into her headphones and she sang along with it, but in the studio they only played what was coming from her mic. The computers put everything in separate tracks and they can pick what to listen to. I don't know if an instrumental version is out, though.
When asked if she has other projects in the works, she answered that she´s talking about a few stuff, which she cannot tell anything about, but it'll be in the theatre. It'll be in Europe again, so she´s very much looking forward to that also.That was an interview by Playbil from April 12.
there should not be people in the world who are this flawless, it doesn't even give the rest of us a chance. pure, unfathomable brilliance. i just cannot.
She said about making her own album with her own music! I didn't say anything about Willemijn being in Europe playing Elphaba! But that would be awesome!
I love Willemijn most but I have to agree that Rachel is amazing too !! I hate when people make comparaison btw differents Elphabas ! they are all amazing !
At least Willemijn has the balls to stand on stage in three different countries (soon to be four, London have got her in November), she is the absolute best and gutsiest Elphaba and singer I have ever heard and I will be honored to see her at the Apollo Victoria in January. Look into her before making spiteful and nasty comments like this, three and soon to be four countries, in three languages, yeah, okay, not the queen... Grow up
GEIL! in Oberhausen und Stuttgart als Elphie gesehen, in verschiedenen Rollen in WWRY und dann bald in London. Ich freu mich :D Meine Lieblings Elphie :D
I don´t know if it is for a CD, she said that she´s planning to do a CD, but I don´t think she´s working on it in the moment. Maybe it´s for a 10 th anniversary of Wicked CD but not her own. That would be awesome as well.
Ik denk ook niet dat dit het complete echte nummer is. Het is in een muziek studio´s heel normaal dat je het lied door elkaar en in stukjes opneemt. Later plakken ze het wel weer goed aan elkaar.
***** Etwas in mir ist anders. Etwas in mir erwacht. Ihr Erdenkriecher könnt nicht ahnen was ich fühl ungebunden und allein. erreicht mich oder fängt mich ein. It's definitely more then one sentence, although it for sure is more English and Dutch then german.
She said in an interview on April 8th or something like thy she said that she is hoping to to her own music and album of her own music when she is done with her broadway debut of Wicked?
Ben ik de enige die merkt dat er qua volgorde niks van klopt? Ik vind het nog steeds geweldig hoor, maar toch. Ook heel knap dat ze echt om de zin van taal kan switchen, ik zou geweldig in de war raken :p
Although she is truly wonderful on Broadway, and I live in the UK which is basically the sister company to Broadway, Willemijn is 1million times better singing this in German
What? Not good? I doubt Willemijn is even able to sing bad! She sang it without orchestra, I really don´t wanna hear the likes of someone like Idina sing it that way. Right, she is not special for singing it in 3 different languages, but for being the original german and dutch Elphaba and the fact, that she, as a european, was able to play the leading part in Wicked on broadway. For most american actors it´s difficult to make it to broadway, so they must consider her to be really good.
Ok ok, you first do Wicked on 4 different places, in 3 different languages, play the role more than 1000 times and make sure you end up at Broadway, then dare saying that again.
"I think that should do it."
God. The Queen at her finest.
Great sense of humor :P
she really does! love watching her interviews and her one video with Seth when she unleashed the language of "riff." So genuine :P
Yeah, that clip is great too. She's always like that, so down to earth. That's what makes her even more amazing. Just the girl nextdoor.
I'm lucky; I'm Dutch and understand both English and German (mostly), so I can understand all of her interviews. :)
I really hope to meet her once, and see her perform als Elphaba ever again, When I went to see Wicked, I had her understudy. :(
Small chance, but gotta keep some hope right?
Skatjekim I want to meet her so bad. I've always considered here the queen. I was beyond honored when I got to see her.
Jake Zelmore I can understand that. Hope to get that chance too once. Living in The Netherlands would give me a bigger chance meeting her. However, she's abroad most of the time.

Like literally she is perfection. Her riffs and the clarity and in her voice and the fact that she was flipping between 3 languages so SEAMLESSLY. She is posh and beautiful and perfection.
Now that this has happened, she needs to do a 3 language Let It Go, and my life will be complete.
She did :)
Really??? Link please?
***** I would like to hear that too. I know she did the original German and original Dutch version, but haven't heard a mix.
She's insanely good. Like she is out my mind good.
I agree.
I saw her a about week ago as Elphaba and she's absolutely fantastic! I love her nonchalant response "that should do it" :)
Saw her on broadway yesterday. Brought me to tears. She is truly amazing.
Oh my god dit was briljant! Haar stem is fenomenaal ... en dat switchen tussen de 3 talen: fantastisch!
Willemijn is absolutely awesome, saw her on my birthday in 2014 in the Apollo Victoria. An unbelievable singer and a privilege to listen to, just WOW!
"I think that should do it"...
"I THINK..."?!?!
THAT WAS ABSOLUTELY INCREDIBLE!!!!
Wow...Ik had nooit gedacht dat ze zulke mooie riffjes kon doen...ik sta gewoon met mijn mond vol tandjes...kijk maar.... Petje af Willemijn... te gek gewoon!
Chills throughout the whole thing. She's amazing.
Met her Oberhausen. So much love and respect for this woman❤️
She has a very very trained voice. Amazing...
Yes you can. It is the beauty of technology! Everything is separate and then put together at the end. They usually record the instruments first, and then have the singers sing over it. That is what they did here. They had the instrumental playing into her headphones and she sang along with it, but in the studio they only played what was coming from her mic.

TOTALLY agree. i had no words, only tears after i saw her.
Wow this woman is so talented that is INCREDIBLE! BRAVO!
She is the best!! Saw her in the Dutch Wicked and it really was very impressive! LOVE!!
I didn't, got Renée... :(
IK WILDE WILLEMIJN! :'(
I am so happy I saw my first production of Wicked with her as Elphaba! She captured my heart!
She's fantastic. I got to see her in the Dutch production and it was amazing.
This high F tho 😍😍😍 and the riffs 😭😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
goosebumps so glad i got to see her live she's so talented
I wonder if they really did it in one take. The hardly ever, but I think this time they did, she's amazing.
GOD the TALENT
I like her best in German.
Same!
Wow, no accent in German and English, and an awesome singing voice too!
Great! She is such a good singer! Hope to see u soon in another musical!
I absolutely love her ❤
She is the queen. Nothing more to say
When asked if she has other projects in the works, she answered that she´s talking about a few stuff, which she cannot tell anything about, but it'll be in the theatre. It'll be in Europe again, so she´s very much looking forward to that also.That was an interview by Playbil from April 12.
So proud to be Dutch! wauw! Ze is zó geweldig!
This is just too good
I'm so proud i saw her live in wicked!
Her talent really is Unlimited,
Ella es ESPECTACULAR.
there should not be people in the world who are this flawless, it doesn't even give the rest of us a chance. pure, unfathomable brilliance. i just cannot.
shes AMAZING!!!!!!
I saw her in the dutch production and it was amazing
HOLY CRAP! What more can you say! Simply amazing!
My green queen!
Can't wait to see wicked am seeing it in London on the 21st of December matinee. Hope ill get to see her
I saw her in Oberhausen in Germany. AMAZING Show ❤
She said about making her own album with her own music! I didn't say anything about Willemijn being in Europe playing Elphaba! But that would be awesome!
Dit laat écht zien hoe goed ze is! Fantastisch!!
Please don't be rude about Rachel. I agree Willemijn is better, but there's no denying Rachel is also outstanding.
I love Willemijn most but I have to agree that Rachel is amazing too !! I hate when people make comparaison btw differents Elphabas ! they are all amazing !
It is sooo beautyful!
I Love this Somuch
At least Willemijn has the balls to stand on stage in three different countries (soon to be four, London have got her in November), she is the absolute best and gutsiest Elphaba and singer I have ever heard and I will be honored to see her at the Apollo Victoria in January.
Look into her before making spiteful and nasty comments like this, three and soon to be four countries, in three languages, yeah, okay, not the queen...
Grow up
Mooi gedaan!!!
"I think that should do it!" Pfft Hilarious!!
I feel slightly let down. I thought she'd be singing all three languages simultaneously ;) Just kidding, love you Willemijn!
wauw! echt geweldig :D
Love😘
Whahaha; tuurlijk in 3 talen ook :P, het is dat je niet op 3 plaatsen tegelijk kan zijn ;-)
Geniet nog even lekker daar Willemijn! Grusjes!
GEIL! in Oberhausen und Stuttgart als Elphie gesehen, in verschiedenen Rollen in WWRY und dann bald in London. Ich freu mich :D Meine Lieblings Elphie :D
Look here mouth at 0:53! Whaha
What do you mean?
Wauw wauw en nog eens wauw
I don´t know if it is for a CD, she said that she´s planning to do a CD, but I don´t think she´s working on it in the moment. Maybe it´s for a 10 th anniversary of Wicked CD but not her own. That would be awesome as well.
0:28 - Bart! I love them together.
Is there a possibility to hear te whole song? It was on the radio?
Liefde
wow Good
Wauw! Komt dit op cd of iTunes?
Ik denk ook niet dat dit het complete echte nummer is. Het is in een muziek studio´s heel normaal dat je het lied door elkaar en in stukjes opneemt. Later plakken ze het wel weer goed aan elkaar.
I wish I could sing :(
will this recording available for purchase on itunes?
so is this being released or...? LOVE IT by the way.
I still think the German version sounds terrible... :P
If you care to watch/listen the full video, it's in German, Dutch & English
***** e.g. at the beginning and 1:36
*****
Etwas in mir ist anders.
Etwas in mir erwacht.
Ihr Erdenkriecher könnt nicht ahnen was ich fühl
ungebunden und allein.
erreicht mich oder fängt mich ein.
It's definitely more then one sentence, although it for sure is more English and Dutch then german.
***** My tong is German. I guess, I do recognise my own language ;)
It's Dutch, English and German. They switch.
wow
I prefer this song in Dutch ^.^...
is she releasing a single of defying gravity ?
She said in an interview on April 8th or something like thy she said that she is hoping to to her own music and album of her own music when she is done with her broadway debut of Wicked?
waaaauw !!!
Is there a version of this with music backing?
Yes.
I saw here for real
Ben ik de enige die merkt dat er qua volgorde niks van klopt? Ik vind het nog steeds geweldig hoor, maar toch.
Ook heel knap dat ze echt om de zin van taal kan switchen, ik zou geweldig in de war raken :p
