      I love your voice! Your awesome! I would LOVE to hear you sing "THEY JUST KEEP MOVING THE LINE" from the tv show/musical SMASH! Produced by Stephen Spielberg on the making of a musical Broadway show on the life of Marilyn Monroe. It is such a great song I think you could knock it out of the park! Keep on singing you bring joy to our world! 👍💖

    Something has changed within me
    Something is not the same
    I'm through with playing by the rules
    Of someone else's game
    Too late for second guessing
    Too late to go back to sleep
    It's time to trust my instincts
    Close my eyes and leap
    It's time to try defying gravity
    I think I'll try defying gravity
    And you can't pull me down
    Can't I make you understand?
    You're having delusions of grandeur
    I'm through accepting limits
    'Cause someone says they're so
    Some things I cannot change
    But till I try, I'll never know
    Too long I've been afraid of
    Losing love I guess I've lost
    Well, if that's love
    It comes at much too high a cost
    I'd sooner buy defying gravity
    Kiss me goodbye
    I'm defying gravity
    And you can't pull me down
    Glinda, come with me
    Think of what we could do together
    Unlimited, together we're unlimited
    Together we'll be the greatest team
    There's ever been, Glinda
    Dreams, the way we planned 'em
    If we work in tandem
    There's no fight we cannot win
    Just you and I defying gravity
    With you and I defying gravity
    They'll never bring us down
    Well? Are you coming?
    I hope you're happy
    Now that you're choosing this
    You too
    I hope it brings you bliss
    I really hope you get it
    And you don't live to regret it
    I hope you're happy in the end
    I hope you're happy, my friend
    So if you care to find me
    Look to the western sky
    As someone told me lately
    "Ev'ryone deserves the chance to fly"
    And if I'm flying solo
    At least I'm flying free
    To those who'd ground me
    Take a message back from me
    Tell them how I am defying gravity
    I'm flying high defying gravity
    And soon I'll match them in renown
    And nobody in all of Oz
    No Wizard that there is or was
    Is ever gonna bring me down
    I hope you're happy
    Look at her, she's wicked
    Get her
    Bring me down
    No one mourns the wicked
    So we've got to bring her
    Ahh, down

      When I was 17 and micromanaged by my dad's family, I wanted to "defy gravity" by jumping off the roof. And because I didn't die from the fall, I chose to run away and hide from the police with a registered felon. So I totally get it.

    Was reading some comments and the vibrato IS wicked but is one of my fav things about your covers. Also my vibrato only comes out when I'm doing a note properly (like, the technique and not hurting myself) so that means you're doing all of them amazingly. Love your work!!!

    Hey Stephen great cover. I just want to thank you I was trying to find the right key to sing this in. I can't go as high as Idina or any of the other women who sing this and I was going to low in my register when trying to adjust. But after hearing your rendition I was able to match pitch pretty well and didn't strain my voice. I'm considering starting my own youtube singing channel and this is one of the songs I wanted to do. I'm mediocre in my vocal talent right now but hoping to watch some training videos, improve my voice a bit and hopefully get to "pretty good".
