"As much as it hurts me to admit it-- and it does-- she's right. Rachel's our star. If anyone is going to go belt it on the fly, it should be her."-Also Kurt
Evelina Richter OMG same for me I even took a trip to NY to see a real Broadway show two years ago! Thanks to Lea Michele and Matthew Morrison but mostly Lea I fell in love with musical theatre again.
It’s not just the fact she sang in the episode about Cory’s death, the fact she actually stayed in the show is incredible…everything and everyone around her would’ve been a reminder of what she lost and she still stuck around…
Lmfao you act like she wasn’t getting paid a ton of money to stay. She didn’t stay cause she’s a great person she stayed cause she’s a greedy dog that wanted a paycheck.
They were not engaged. She also used his death kinda like a victim card, to get everything she wanted and hurting so many, even those closest to her her. So, of course she stayed. But yes, beyond incredible and powerful voice!
@@jemmmorrison8608 Actually she loved him truly with all of her heart and was really affected by his death. She did not use the victim card and if anything she had lost her fiance because yes they actually were engaged so of course she has the right to be upset and down about the situation.
@@jaylamiller8878 they were not engaged, just because you talk about marriage and having a family with them, doesn't mean that you get auto engaged, but i do think they were going to get engaged, they belonged together, and as someone who has lost a boyfreind almost fiance due to a car accident @jemmmorrison8608 (im posting this on my dads account cause im too lazy to switch to mine) she kinda was a victim, she lost her person, be a little more sympathetic. she wasnt a super nice person, and you know what, thats okay
Her talent level is so insane. I applaud any man she ever did a duet with that didn't get blown off the stage. Darren held his own, Chris definitely, Cory kills faithfully for an untrained singer. But Jessie St James was her vocal match.
No surprise there, since both she and Jonathan Groff came from Broadway. And having starred in Spring Awakening together, the chemistry was also undeniable and showed in how well their vocals mixed as well.
This poor girl went from planning her wedding to planning Corey's funeral they where all so talented but the fact she still went on and sung about Finn was amazing had to be so hard ❤💔
The moment she sings for Finn's death was only done in one take. I think that's why I cry every time I see it, she was singing for Corey and it shows. No need to redo a take in these conditions... Everyone can say what they want about her, she remains a fantastic artist 🤩
And still so many people give her crap sometimes without knowing her. It must have been so hard being his fiance, loosing him and everyone sees it and judges her reactions.
With how annoying Rachel could be at times it’s easy to forget how forget how insanely talented Lea Michelle is. Edit: I wrote this before the allegations towards Lea Michelle came to light. I do not excuse or condone her behavior off set towards her black coworkers. Black Lives Matter, Arrest the cops who killed Breonna Taylor, and have a nice day :)
just gonna skip over the fact that she came in and sung on the Corey Monteith ep huh.. like. that was her fiancè man. in real damn life. and she came in and sung on a show about his characters death, during her time of grief for her actual partner. that. will always be her most powerful moment for me. no doubt about it.
I was watching Glee and I was so annoyed by Rachel's singing in EVERY nationals since she always got a Solo but in the 5th season when they lost nationals I unconsciously thought to myself "Damn, Rachel would've slayed that competition, she would've ate them all up" and thats when it hit me 😭despite absolutely everything she is insanely talented
@@miztlitovarcastillo7576 still wlcouldnt do what Racehl could. She had a cute pop voice but Rachel is a once in a generation singer. Her range, power and breath work is out of this world.
The coolest part was seeing her live and realizing she sounded this good or better live. Such crazy talent. I really hope she ends up on stage at some point in her career- she could dominate Broadway.
That’s the kind of thing that tells you how truly talented she is! I think it’s so disappointing how many famous singers sound bad live but if you can sing that well live no matter what style you sing, it’s a gift for sure!!!
the only organ she has is lungs. its the only way she can hold a note for that long Edit: apparently she likes to use her incredible voice to tear people down so I revoke my adoration
There are many people as talented as her. Amber Riley is one of them. Tell me who wants to work with someone like Lea even with that talent of hers? Glee cast, all of them said she is a nightmare to work with. And look at her today. She can’t make it big because of her shitty attitude so her talent will take her nowhere unless ahe changes. But again, I expect nothing from a Karen.
I wish they’d stop auto-tuning the high notes. She can hit them on her own. The little imperfections, while barely perceptible, make a singer’s voice interesting and unique. She’s so talented; I wish Fox would let her do her thing.
@@Idkwhattonamethis08 I totally disagree after seeing that witch on Broadway I will never waste my money on anything she is in take your opinion and shove it
@@allyb3969 Rachel had much moments when she didnt give a shot but most time she saw this and made something to be a better person (that´s what I think)
@@mikaylah6664 I thought so too but only her and kurt really wanted to pursue a career in that field so naturally she'd want to have a bigger role. In any club people usually try to get a higher position when they are more focused on pursuing a related career. The exception is mercedes who only realized she wanted to pursue a singing career in senior year but I wish she wouldve gotten a bigger chance to shine because I think shes just as good as rachel when it comes to natural talent, the only thing was that she was lazier in the beginning and less willing to train, which she changed once she had a goal. sry for the long response lol my point is just that I dont get why people hate on rachel for trying to be the star when she was the most focused on performing after highschool. (and yes I do think she went too far to stay the star at moments especially when she felt threatened like with sunshine)
@@Hi-vr3kd I understand what you're saying i just think there were times when she crossed a line. like whenever she was first thought of for a solo and also a lot of things seemed to be handed to her when there were others that were just as qualified. I guess I just felt like she was very narcissistic and didn't care about anyone else
FreshBread excuse me... have you heard of LBB or Barrett Wilbert weed or Renée Elise Goldsberry, Phillipa soo, Jessie mueller, Sutton foster, literally anyone actually on broadway at the moment. She has so much auto tune it’s not even funny.
Everyone knows Lea is a phenomenal singer live. Everyone is given auto tone on Glee. She’s even better in person and can hit those same notes - exactly the same and even better. She’s not the beast but is definitely in a list. Something you can’t deny. :/ I’m not even a Leah fan at all.
everyone commends her on her 16 second belt on the same note for don't rain on my parade, but the true definition of breath control is to love you more with her 30 SECOND LONG NOTE imagine the lung capacity
to love you more was definitely studio work. she definitely had breaks in between and later the sound engineer patched up all the vocal takes together. in live performances she always struggles to sustain the 8 second long dont rain on my parade note.
I don't think To love you more is that difficult. Definitely easier than Parade. And at the end of that one she took a catch breath. Less impressive when you've topped off your lungs.
@@helloworld17778 Another commenter said she does the same 25+ second belt in live shows, so it's possible that she does have the capacity for it. However, in this TV episode, you can hear the editing as she goes into the belted notes, she doesn't even take a breath first.
This is the most irrelevent comment i have seen. this is a character in a show. THIS VIDEO IS ABOUT HER UNDENIABLE TALENT. not about her behavior. if u wanna bully her go yo news channels. this is no place for that
Parsa Shojaei Talent & fame is worth nothing if you don’t have the stamina to uphold basic human respect for others. Musical or otherwise, everyone possesses some form of talent; if all people treated each other the way she does & justified it with their talent, the world would be full of so many indignant people like yourself unjustly attacking people on the internet for expressing a valid opinion. If you are that concerned with controlling the comment section in a strictly musical fashion, then you should probably stop wasting your time accusing people of being “bullies” and analyze her breath support or some shit.
The fact that lea appeared in the quarterback episode was such a 💔 moment but yet so brave of her to do that And also when naya sings "if I die young " that is even more 💔 now.
I honestly have a hard time watching any of it anymore. It's just so sad to see them in the prime of their lives in season 1, and know what happens later. As a mom it breaks my heart, but my daughter loves the show, and she is 17 and invincible (as they all are) so I try not to bring her too far down by reminding her of the real life tragedies constantly.
Rachel was iconic. Her being “annoying” was her being iconically hilarious, and it shows that nobody’s perfect. Her character was great on the show and it wouldn’t be glee without it
Jamile De Jesus exactly, it was her being iconically hilarious but most people don’t see that like everyone says Santana was being iconic but she was just being a bitch the whole time but they see it as iconic so why can’t they see that Rachel was just being entertaining
@@harujukudoll548 Santana was worse tbh. And don't let me get started with Quinn, like, how the fuck would you lie to someone about something as important as a baby, that lie would've cost him his whole life
I love Rachel. She got so much hate, even though most of the other glee club members were worse than Rachel. And that's on Funny Girl. Edit: Love Lea's talent, not her attitude
Its incredible not just the notes she can hit but how long she can hold them!!! Only person on earth that could probably sing All By Myself better than Celine!!!
why do ppl always focus on rachel being annoying when almost every other character was equally as or even more annoying than her? tina was so annoying throughout EVERY season and nobody ever talks about that
Tina was good in the first season. I wish the writers didn’t trash her personality so much. She was timid, smart, and at the same time had her quirks. Also kinda wish she didn’t fake the stutter though.
I think a huge part of Rachel's personality in the show was that she was annoying. I don't know what the writers intended but I think the fact that she is sorta annoying was intentional and was just added as being one of her quirks. Its not a bad think but there's no denying it especially when it is a big part of her character
It always bothered me that they had Rachel leave Funny Girl, like that was her dream role for like her whole life! She would’ve never, Rachel as a character would have had to be dragged out of the theatre to give up the lead especially if it was her dream role! Even if that isn’t true she would’ve never left that early for a stupid tv show! Like bro! I’m only salty cause I wanted more of Lea singing funny girl but like still-
I agree. That's when I gave up on the show. It just bummed me out so much and was so out of character - even if she was processing Finn's death, I don't think she would've done that
I still feel like she wouldn’t have quit? I don’t know. I just feel like she wouldn’t have done that, I feel like it would’ve been more likely for her to get fired or to breakdown in the middle of the show over Finn than for her to quit
When she toured with Darren, my sister and I went and it was the BEST. Darren was incredible but Lea opened her mouth and me and my sis were just about instantly in tears with chills. Her talent is unreal and she is so light hearted. Darren came out where everyone was waiting by the tour bus and talked to us as well. Best experience.
It's not exactly like that... I mean in the show everythink it's always about Rachel so they want to give credits to the other singers, because they deserve it as Rachel does. No one has ever denied Lea talent, I can stand Rachel just when she sings because Lea is amazing.
@@eboniz Oh I'm so sorry it came off that way- I love Amber and she has an amazing voice and she definitely should've been recognized more on the show. I just wanted to show my love for Lea right now.
I am, and I still love her talent, her voice is incredible and this video is about it, not her personality, there are other videos if you want to diss her.
Why is nobody talking about the fact that she also doesn't breath for ages in To Love You More??? It's AT LEAST 20 seconds!!! And that's not even my favourite Rachel solo :)
I know!! Her breath support is insane!! I have terrible breath support, but I blame my asthma. If I take a hit of my inhaler before singing it’s better, but... still could use work 😂
That was some crazy sh*t. My face changed multiple times throughout the entire note from, “Okay, girl. I see you!” To “Damn, girl was there a breath somewhere!?”
The key change in here’s to us always kills me, that change is so hard to master just because of how unnatural it feels and she just,,, does it so smoothly
Three things 1. Are we just gonna ignore It’s all coming back to me and paradise by the dashboard light in nationals season three? 2. Without you ( personally my one of my fave Rachel solos) And last but not least “Make You Feel My Love” it may not take a powerhouse of a voice to sing it. But Lea Michele sang it after she lost the love of her life. Like mad props.
Anyone who says they don't like her character because she's annoying and a try hard seem to forget that "annoying" and "try hard" is WHO HER CHARACTER IS, SO, if the she ever annoyed you (even if it was the "I still love you" annoyed) it just means Lea DELIVERED HER ROLE
Lauren Percival of course she delivered. that’s why i hate her character so much cause she is annoying and an attention whore and entitled. she did a great job doing rachel that i could not like her character😂. LOVE lea tho and her voice- SO INCREDIBLY talented
Why do you guys keep saying she's annoying, she's really not annoying. She obviously has her moments, but she never changed herself for anyone, or anything for that moment.
Her voice is the one I loved the most in all Glee Club. So clear, so emotional. There were plenty of other great singers, starting with Amber Riley, but to me she just has the best voice, she sounds like an angel!
I’ve noticed that y’all like to glorify mean people. Like yes, Rachel was annoying, but how does that make her worse than the other character that were actually terrible people? They all did awful shit to each other but at least they would stick up for and support everyone. Expect Rachel. They always shit on her and never showed her any support till the last 2 season at least.
@@payasiitos Yes! Santana was horrible! A lot of the characters were written to be bitchy and sassy, but Santana was straight up mean a ton of the time. I have no clue why there's so much more hate towards Rachel, when she was infinitely nicer than Santana. Edit: I actually do like Santana. But she was a bad person a lot of the time. But she was supposed to be and the writers usually had her redeem herself. I'm just salty at the fans who have double standards for characters lol.
Here's looking at you, kid. Right? I learned to love all the characters since they all had their bad moments, especially since my favorite is Quinn and she was definitely at the top of the bitchy characters but yeah, idk why people hate on Rachel specifically as if Santana didn’t do worse
The Glee Script writers really dropped the ball when they dumped 6 seasons of Rachel’s character development when she left funny girl to be on a tv show.🥺 Even tho people may hate the character Rachel no one can deny how Lea Michele is so incredibly talented.🤷♀️
Honestly though, it was always her biggest dream to be on Broadway, and she hadn’t even reached her peak yet, you can tell. Nobody, no matter how amazing the concept is is going to leave their rise to Broadway fame to work on a TV show that will only go on for what? 3 seasons.
Sophia W I knoww I mean I guess she thought that she would be a big name in Hollywood after the show but she was the LEAD in a Broadway production.... I just wished they didn’t do that to Rachel😔
I actually don’t think they dropped the ball on Rachel’s character because I always saw it as a sort of demonstration about the fact that Rachel’s key flaw was the need to iconize herself. Even though so much of her wanted to be on stage because of the love and embodiment she had for the craft of musical theater and the legacy of Broadway, there was always a desire to prove herself, that she was special, that she was beyond even the legacy of Broadway. I think the decision to leave funny girl was partially informed by all the self-doubt and discomfort that had been internally and externally inflicted on her that season - facing pressure like that, she indulged a primal, some might say weaker impulse. Long story short, I felt like the point was that Rachel herself would never have admitted or liked to think that she might drop her career-launching dream role for a likely-catastrophic ego project... and yet ultimately she had to confront that yes, she just might. But maybe I’m giving the writers a bit too much credit. ;)
despite many people finding out NOW news of lea being rude for years (this is nothing new), she is undeniably an incredible actress and singer. she is who inspired me to do musical theatre.
I saw a change in Lea when Corey died. She seemed a lot more humbled. And god it must’ve been so difficult to come into work every day without the man you worked with every day and were literally engaged to. It’s all coming back to me now definitely needs to be in this list btw!
I don't believe in hating someone I have never met and there are always two sides of any situation. Her voice is fantastic and I hope she does well on Broadway.
The last song she sings for the series "This Time" was written by Darren Criss. I believe she chose it, and it was because he wrote it is why she sang it as her series finale hommage. At least what I saw on one of the videos here on RUclips
Rachel really did carry the whole Glee Club on her back edit: Since so many people are arguing in the comments. What I meant was that Rachel put in a whole lot more effort than anyone else which is why the Glee Club was sustained. However, it's true that there were so many other amazing voices and I wish they were showcased more.
I MADE YOU READ THIS why would I put mad effort in a club that don’t appreciate me. Like why would I fight for a solo if only one person gets them anyways
Lea has a incredibly talented. One must accept that the episodes following Cory’s death were cathartic for the entire cast. They mourned the man and the character. So sad.
No it was because she's really selfish and try to hog the spotlight all the time. And don't forget she would do whatever it takes to get what she wants, even sabotaging her friends. That was the character but yeah Lea got talent
@@leenguyen2219 Yes she was selfish but she had moments when she saw how stupid she was and tried to be a better person and do nice things to her friends
Brilliant ..... Give me anything from the middle of season 2 through season 3 especially as this was the transition from Rachel singing to Finn to Lea singing only for Cory. The fav for me personally is " Without You ", the arrangement done by the Anders boys is something that i can happily listen to all day..... Keep up the good work
In Kurt's words "oh she might be difficult sometimes but boy she can sing!" Lea is just amazing
Bravo, bravoooo

@@allyb3969 Rachel had much moments when she didnt give a shot but most time she saw this and made something to be a better person (that´s what I think)
@@mikaylah6664 I thought so too but only her and kurt really wanted to pursue a career in that field so naturally she'd want to have a bigger role. In any club people usually try to get a higher position when they are more focused on pursuing a related career. The exception is mercedes who only realized she wanted to pursue a singing career in senior year but I wish she wouldve gotten a bigger chance to shine because I think shes just as good as rachel when it comes to natural talent, the only thing was that she was lazier in the beginning and less willing to train, which she changed once she had a goal. sry for the long response lol my point is just that I dont get why people hate on rachel for trying to be the star when she was the most focused on performing after highschool. (and yes I do think she went too far to stay the star at moments especially when she felt threatened like with sunshine)
@@Hi-vr3kd I understand what you're saying i just think there were times when she crossed a line. like whenever she was first thought of for a solo and also a lot of things seemed to be handed to her when there were others that were just as qualified. I guess I just felt like she was very narcissistic and didn't care about anyone else
Say what you want about the actress, but you can’t deny she is one of the most talented modern broadway singers
FreshBread excuse me... have you heard of LBB or Barrett Wilbert weed or Renée Elise Goldsberry, Phillipa soo, Jessie mueller, Sutton foster, literally anyone actually on broadway at the moment. She has so much auto tune it’s not even funny.
There are better ones out there
Everyone knows Lea is a phenomenal singer live. Everyone is given auto tone on Glee. She’s even better in person and can hit those same notes - exactly the same and even better. She’s not the beast but is definitely in a list. Something you can’t deny. :/ I’m not even a Leah fan at all.
@@katherinerockwell9254 yessss exactly!! And Renne rap Taylor louder man
I still would have said no
everyone commends her on her 16 second belt on the same note for don't rain on my parade, but the true definition of breath control is to love you more with her 30 SECOND LONG NOTE imagine the lung capacity
To Love you More was ranked WAY too low on this in my opinion for that fact alone.
to love you more was definitely studio work. she definitely had breaks in between and later the sound engineer patched up all the vocal takes together. in live performances she always struggles to sustain the 8 second long dont rain on my parade note.
@@helloworld17778 still insanely impressive, not many people at such a young age could do that
I don't think To love you more is that difficult. Definitely easier than Parade. And at the end of that one she took a catch breath. Less impressive when you've topped off your lungs.
@@helloworld17778 Another commenter said she does the same 25+ second belt in live shows, so it's possible that she does have the capacity for it. However, in this TV episode, you can hear the editing as she goes into the belted notes, she doesn't even take a breath first.
I don’t like Lea but her damn talent is to freaking die for
absolutely same
Exactly, this video is about her talent and I love that even if you don't like her you acknowledge her talent which this video is about.
What did she do?
@@MonRojasOfficial don't worry about it, that in the past.
But would you want that talent if everybody hated you tho
She often forgot she was human when she was speaking to others...
This is the most irrelevent comment i have seen. this is a character in a show.
THIS VIDEO IS ABOUT HER UNDENIABLE TALENT. not about her behavior. if u wanna bully her go yo news channels. this is no place for that
Parsa Shojaei Talent & fame is worth nothing if you don’t have the stamina to uphold basic human respect for others. Musical or otherwise, everyone possesses some form of talent; if all people treated each other the way she does & justified it with their talent, the world would be full of so many indignant people like yourself unjustly attacking people on the internet for expressing a valid opinion. If you are that concerned with controlling the comment section in a strictly musical fashion, then you should probably stop wasting your time accusing people of being “bullies” and analyze her breath support or some shit.
Parsa Shojaei She’s the same in real life 😂
Parsa Shojaei Lea’s the one that did the actual bullying but go off lmao
😂😂😂👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
The fact that lea appeared in the quarterback episode was such a 💔 moment but yet so brave of her to do that
And also when naya sings "if I die young " that is even more 💔 now.
@@keekers I still cry like a baby
I honestly have a hard time watching any of it anymore. It's just so sad to see them in the prime of their lives in season 1, and know what happens later. As a mom it breaks my heart, but my daughter loves the show, and she is 17 and invincible (as they all are) so I try not to bring her too far down by reminding her of the real life tragedies constantly.
I would suggest you watch The Cost of Glee because it’s rather enlightening on this subject
Rachel was iconic. Her being “annoying” was her being iconically hilarious, and it shows that nobody’s perfect. Her character was great on the show and it wouldn’t be glee without it
Jamile De Jesus exactly, it was her being iconically hilarious but most people don’t see that like everyone says Santana was being iconic but she was just being a bitch the whole time but they see it as iconic so why can’t they see that Rachel was just being entertaining
It's such a realistic character which in my opinion clashed with the utter weirdness glee was and that irked me the wrong way lol
@@maithomas7037
But Rachel was a bitch too? I-
@@harujukudoll548 Santana was worse tbh. And don't let me get started with Quinn, like, how the fuck would you lie to someone about something as important as a baby, that lie would've cost him his whole life
no it was not lmao, she was a bad person
everyone's rewatching glee now i see
Sarix and what about it😂
I’m on season 6 episode like 12 from the BEGINNING
@@dramallamatuna lmao nothing, im like season 2 ep 21
And who’s gonna check me😭😭
Probably cause we can’t leave
Her and Jonathan Groff where the best singers on the show you can’t change my mind
Kate Naya and dianna
And Darron
Kate Mercedes was better than Rachel especially for “you’re gonna love me”
Facts
And that’s on spring awakening
"oh she might be difficult sometimes but boy she can sing!"
I love Rachel. She got so much hate, even though most of the other glee club members were worse than Rachel. And that's on Funny Girl.
Edit: Love Lea's talent, not her attitude
I couldn't agree more finally someone who understands
Victor Ajah she’s iconic
Nah Rachel was a horrible person
Cynthia Zavala blaine was an awesome person tbh
Oh and Sam was a good guy too
WHY ISNT ITS ALL COMING BACK TO ME NOW ON HERE
Malke i was searching through the reactions to see if someone noticed too thankgod🤣
Seriously I don't get way they didn't put that song, give me chills everytime I listen to it and is been years since the first time
its my far my favorite song that she sang
her face everytime she hits high note -----> 😮😦😧😲😣😩😩😩😫😫😫😫
Nyan Shin Htut can you sing like that?
That’s how you’re supposed to sing it opens your air way wider so you can sing louder and longer
Nyan Shin Htut your not wrong
🤣🤣🤣
Jennifer Rawls they know it’s just funny
Its incredible not just the notes she can hit but how long she can hold them!!! Only person on earth that could probably sing All By Myself better than Celine!!!
Charice is also insanely good w it!
No one can do Celine better than Celine! But Lea can definitely try :)
Didnt Sunshine Corazon sing That Song in Glee? (Dont know The actresses Name)
@@learosseburg5373 yeah and btw *actor, the actor of sunshine is a man!
Cry and It’s All Coming Back To Me Now from the third season are missing, In my opinion
also Without You!
The Scientist, Go Your Own Way etc. are also missing.
and roots before branches
take a bow!
Yeah that's what I said too
why do ppl always focus on rachel being annoying when almost every other character was equally as or even more annoying than her? tina was so annoying throughout EVERY season and nobody ever talks about that
Peaches lmao Tina does the most annoying things in every season I swear 😂
So true. Being annoying is a little bit part of every character in glee and every time Rachel became less annoying, Tina get's worse.
Tina was good in the first season. I wish the writers didn’t trash her personality so much. She was timid, smart, and at the same time had her quirks. Also kinda wish she didn’t fake the stutter though.
I think a huge part of Rachel's personality in the show was that she was annoying. I don't know what the writers intended but I think the fact that she is sorta annoying was intentional and was just added as being one of her quirks. Its not a bad think but there's no denying it especially when it is a big part of her character
Quinn was the most annoying in my opinion
It always bothered me that they had Rachel leave Funny Girl, like that was her dream role for like her whole life! She would’ve never, Rachel as a character would have had to be dragged out of the theatre to give up the lead especially if it was her dream role! Even if that isn’t true she would’ve never left that early for a stupid tv show! Like bro! I’m only salty cause I wanted more of Lea singing funny girl but like still-
Lynnlee Ennis I think they did it to show that she was sort of lost/needed to find herself especially after Finn’s death
I agree. That's when I gave up on the show. It just bummed me out so much and was so out of character - even if she was processing Finn's death, I don't think she would've done that
Isn't it kind of what Lea Michelle did with Broadway? 😅😅
Lynnlee Ennis no you’re right Rachel’s entire dream was funny girl. I mean that literally, you’re right.
I still feel like she wouldn’t have quit? I don’t know. I just feel like she wouldn’t have done that, I feel like it would’ve been more likely for her to get fired or to breakdown in the middle of the show over Finn than for her to quit
2021 and still appreciating Lea's insane talent... Amazing
unpopular opinion new directions always had the worst performing outfits
TRUE, except for season 3 nationals, I love those!
I loved the gold and black outfit and the one when Rachel performed a Celine dion song
@@zhynirgittens2687 Oh yeah those were good
YES like the leggings under the dresses were very questionable
I mean style at the time lol. Funny to look back and see what we’d change.
When she toured with Darren, my sister and I went and it was the BEST. Darren was incredible but Lea opened her mouth and me and my sis were just about instantly in tears with chills. Her talent is unreal and she is so light hearted. Darren came out where everyone was waiting by the tour bus and talked to us as well. Best experience.
This girls lung capacity be going 🤯
Her singing My Man literally makes me tear up everytime.
Anyone else get a weird chill seeing Cory? 💔
Casey H yes 🥺🥺🥺
Rachel looking at Finn in The Only Exception and Cory giving the start of that one-sided grin he used to do... Heartbreaking.
😭
I had to stop watching halfway through bc it was making me sad
Just thinking that
People always talk about Amber belting the high notes... but like, look at our girl Lea
It's not exactly like that... I mean in the show everythink it's always about Rachel so they want to give credits to the other singers, because they deserve it as Rachel does. No one has ever denied Lea talent, I can stand Rachel just when she sings because Lea is amazing.
everyone always looked at her she’s the main character
I know I'm just spreading more appreciation for her on a video about her.
Eliza Grey i know, the wording of your comment just sounded like it discredited amber a bit, when she was often looked over anyways
@@eboniz Oh I'm so sorry it came off that way- I love Amber and she has an amazing voice and she definitely should've been recognized more on the show. I just wanted to show my love for Lea right now.
I know this is just clips but really the whole winter showcase should be this whole video because she killed it lol
Omg yes
@@artrojas4732 😊
the fact that 'its all coming back to me now' was left out is a crime.
baffled that her high A in Halo wasn’t included
IKR
I thought it was a Bb5 in the show and live it’s an A5 i could be wrong
i love how you can always see the passion in her whole face when she hits THOSE notes. or when she sheds tears as she sings :'( love lea so much
Who told her to be handing out goosebumps and shivers like it’s homework sheets
She is so talented
The song at 4:17 and how long she sang without taking a breath is seriously superhuman
That's an amazing lung capacity
Who's here after her whole drama? Damn, 2020 is still bringing surprises.
Carlos Yanez what happened?! Any links to a vid explaining?
@@ashlynnemarcotti560 ruclips.net/video/5AaHYfn-r14/видео.html
You were surprised?
Hopefully shes grown from Glee because she is SO talented.
I am, and I still love her talent, her voice is incredible and this video is about it, not her personality, there are other videos if you want to diss her.
Best video to ever exist, bless your soul for making this
you missed the mashup halo/walking on sunshine episode, the last note, that was sick
edit: omg thank u for the likes!
It really was 🔥
Especially she holds it longer in the recording and then even longer in the live concert like Jesus
palsy nun especially in the full version she's amazing
YES!!!! I came to this video looking for that note
I’ve been singing musical theater for over 10 years and I can hit everyone of her notes other than walking on sunshine that was nuts 🥜
I listen to her version of O Holy Night all December. Still gives me chills. Same with To Love You More
My all time favorite performance of hers. I love that you can hear the overtones in the last note
What about the last "halo" on the mashup "halo/walking on sunshine"
ikr!!!! to me that’s the highest note i’ve ever heard!!!
That was truly amazing
@@mimi_mgcl5146 what about Mariah Carey 😂
Isa Postma she probably meant belted note, or she doesn’t listen to Mariah
I read somewhere the note was probably edited
Why is nobody talking about the fact that she also doesn't breath for ages in To Love You More??? It's AT LEAST 20 seconds!!!
And that's not even my favourite Rachel solo :)
I know!! Her breath support is insane!! I have terrible breath support, but I blame my asthma. If I take a hit of my inhaler before singing it’s better, but... still could use work 😂
That was some crazy sh*t. My face changed multiple times throughout the entire note from, “Okay, girl. I see you!” To “Damn, girl was there a breath somewhere!?”
Yesssssss I got light headed just listening
It was 19!
she deserves so much. people need to stop sleeping on lea for ONCE
The key change in here’s to us always kills me, that change is so hard to master just because of how unnatural it feels and she just,,, does it so smoothly
Yes it’s difficult!
Time stamp?
@@Justin-wk8fv 2:50
The fact she sounds exactly like this live is astounding
I've never seen Glee. Why am I here...?
I'm gonna still finish this video though
TabbyKat492
Me right now 😂
WATCH IT😂😂😂 No but seriously, so so good
Me too. Lol
Same
Saaaaaame
Lea is that one girl that held her breath the longest in elementary school
Notice how lea/Rachel's best songs we're when it was important, and/or emotional to her. She is such an amazing singer
no one is allowed to hate Rachel after season five and I’ll fight u on this x
I'd even say SEASON 3.
ember xox I love Rachel so much
ember xox she was my favourite throughout the whole show so I’m throwing punches at any haters
😗😗😗😗
ember xox truth
Three things
1. Are we just gonna ignore It’s all coming back to me and paradise by the dashboard light in nationals season three?
2. Without you ( personally my one of my fave Rachel solos)
And last but not least “Make You Feel My Love” it may not take a powerhouse of a voice to sing it. But Lea Michele sang it after she lost the love of her life. Like mad props.
Yes it hurt so much to seeing her go though so much pain with the lose of Cory I love make you feel my love
4:24 I think that’s always been the most impressive to me I mean GEEZ
My man has to be her best solo performance
She absolutely killed it
Anyone who says they don't like her character because she's annoying and a try hard seem to forget that "annoying" and "try hard" is WHO HER CHARACTER IS, SO, if the she ever annoyed you (even if it was the "I still love you" annoyed) it just means Lea DELIVERED HER ROLE
Lauren Percival seriously!
Lauren Percival of course she delivered. that’s why i hate her character so much cause she is annoying and an attention whore and entitled. she did a great job doing rachel that i could not like her character😂. LOVE lea tho and her voice- SO INCREDIBLY talented
Mackenzie Lefler I watched the episodes about her getting a nose job and I was just chuckling the whole time 🤣 I feel you
No, it means she was just been herself .
It comes so easily to her for a reason
Also, “My Man” performance is #1 for me always. Vocally and emotionally, just wow!
And backstage it’s “20 Times Lea Michele Forgot Co-Stars Were Human”
This is hilarious
It's in the past so what's the point??
Hai I'm bored so don't mind me it’s still very unprofessional
Damn that was good
@@marianom.2699 the point is shes a bitch and probably racist.
When she sang it’s all coming back to me now! Magic
Why do you guys keep saying she's annoying, she's really not annoying. She obviously has her moments, but she never changed herself for anyone, or anything for that moment.
she’s so good it makes me cry because of the sheer talent and hard work
4:24 please breath girl , breath!
Breathe*
Why is everyone saying she didn’t breathe? She took a very quick but deep breath around 4:33
circular breathing bby
Her voice is the one I loved the most in all Glee Club.
So clear, so emotional.
There were plenty of other great singers, starting with Amber Riley, but to me she just has the best voice, she sounds like an angel!
I’ve noticed that y’all like to glorify mean people. Like yes, Rachel was annoying, but how does that make her worse than the other character that were actually terrible people? They all did awful shit to each other but at least they would stick up for and support everyone. Expect Rachel. They always shit on her and never showed her any support till the last 2 season at least.
Everyone hates Rachel for some reason but adore Santana, who was arguable one of the more bitchy and mean characters
@@payasiitos Yes! Santana was horrible! A lot of the characters were written to be bitchy and sassy, but Santana was straight up mean a ton of the time. I have no clue why there's so much more hate towards Rachel, when she was infinitely nicer than Santana.
Edit: I actually do like Santana. But she was a bad person a lot of the time. But she was supposed to be and the writers usually had her redeem herself. I'm just salty at the fans who have double standards for characters lol.
Here's looking at you, kid. Right? I learned to love all the characters since they all had their bad moments, especially since my favorite is Quinn and she was definitely at the top of the bitchy characters but yeah, idk why people hate on Rachel specifically as if Santana didn’t do worse
i hated tina
rachel was fake af if she was nice it was for her own gain the only nice one was Finn he made that show
Rachel you are as talented as you are annoying
Sofia Rueda. LMAO TRUE

@@chelseadaley9770 do you know them? I mean you're saying THEY are annoying
To like a real person over them saying it to a fictional character dude
Katia Kaiyah they were talking about Rachel not lea michele
The Glee Script writers really dropped the ball when they dumped 6 seasons of Rachel’s character development when she left funny girl to be on a tv show.🥺 Even tho people may hate the character Rachel no one can deny how Lea Michele is so incredibly talented.🤷♀️
Honestly though, it was always her biggest dream to be on Broadway, and she hadn’t even reached her peak yet, you can tell. Nobody, no matter how amazing the concept is is going to leave their rise to Broadway fame to work on a TV show that will only go on for what? 3 seasons.
Sophia W I knoww I mean I guess she thought that she would be a big name in Hollywood after the show but she was the LEAD in a Broadway production.... I just wished they didn’t do that to Rachel😔
I actually don’t think they dropped the ball on Rachel’s character because I always saw it as a sort of demonstration about the fact that Rachel’s key flaw was the need to iconize herself. Even though so much of her wanted to be on stage because of the love and embodiment she had for the craft of musical theater and the legacy of Broadway, there was always a desire to prove herself, that she was special, that she was beyond even the legacy of Broadway. I think the decision to leave funny girl was partially informed by all the self-doubt and discomfort that had been internally and externally inflicted on her that season - facing pressure like that, she indulged a primal, some might say weaker impulse. Long story short, I felt like the point was that Rachel herself would never have admitted or liked to think that she might drop her career-launching dream role for a likely-catastrophic ego project... and yet ultimately she had to confront that yes, she just might. But maybe I’m giving the writers a bit too much credit. ;)
I love Rachel and Lea but yeah it was a waste.
Jacqueline Cruz Right? I agree.
despite many people finding out NOW news of lea being rude for years (this is nothing new), she is undeniably an incredible actress and singer. she is who inspired me to do musical theatre.
I saw a change in Lea when Corey died. She seemed a lot more humbled. And god it must’ve been so difficult to come into work every day without the man you worked with every day and were literally engaged to.
It’s all coming back to me now definitely needs to be in this list btw!
eminem: i don’t need to breathe in my music
lea: imma end this mans whole career
I don't believe in hating someone I have never met and there are always two sides of any situation. Her voice is fantastic and I hope she does well on Broadway.
Not live it isn’t
I saw her last weekend and she was AMAZING!
Who cares
@@Jaktwin who cares
@@barbaracampbell9907 obviously you for replying - TWICE 🙄
The last song she sings for the series "This Time" was written by Darren Criss. I believe she chose it, and it was because he wrote it is why she sang it as her series finale hommage. At least what I saw on one of the videos here on RUclips
Rachel really did carry the whole Glee Club on her back
edit: Since so many people are arguing in the comments. What I meant was that Rachel put in a whole lot more effort than anyone else which is why the Glee Club was sustained.
However, it's true that there were so many other amazing voices and I wish they were showcased more.
Bc Will never show cased anyone else’s talent 🙂🙃
Because she stole all the solos to herself with the support of Will since she’s a narcissist
@Rossy Reynoso Yes, but remember that episode where she was the only one doing all the work?
I MADE YOU READ THIS why would I put mad effort in a club that don’t appreciate me. Like why would I fight for a solo if only one person gets them anyways
I MADE YOU READ THIS if you want to be the only member that gets any opportunity then yes you do all the work.
Lea & Idina really did make the perfect, powerhouse mom and daughter. They’re both insanely insanely talented vocalists.
Everyone can say whatever they want about Lea and or Rachel
But her talent is undeniable
Her smile in number 16, that's not Rachel smiling at Jesse, that's just lea smiling at groff and I'm here for it x
No one:
Rachel 24/7: AAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH
This is my favorite comment on this video hahaha
@@bailey0109 lol it's true tho
But I mean this is a video abt her “forgetting she’s hooman”
love it but where is “it’s all coming back to me now” ?
Or the end of Halo
YESSS! Omg that and my man are literally my favorites by her
was thinking this too lol
FINALLY! someone finally realizes how hard rachel berry snapped during faithfully!
Lea has a incredibly talented. One must accept that the episodes following Cory’s death were cathartic for the entire cast. They mourned the man and the character. So sad.
My favorite Rachel moment is when she hit that high note in Halo/Walking on Sunshine
People hated her because she knew her talent and wasn’t afraid to say it
Like every bitch would
fax like she was goal driven and alr knew what she wanted to do but got hate for it
No it was because she's really selfish and try to hog the spotlight all the time. And don't forget she would do whatever it takes to get what she wants, even sabotaging her friends. That was the character but yeah Lea got talent
@@leenguyen2219 Yes she was selfish but she had moments when she saw how stupid she was and tried to be a better person and do nice things to her friends
I knew it, but still just want to clarify that people didn't hate her cause they jealous, just cause she's kinda a bitch sometimes, that's all.
Brilliant .....
Give me anything from the middle of season 2 through season 3 especially as this was the transition from Rachel singing to Finn to Lea singing only for Cory.
The fav for me personally is " Without You ", the arrangement done by the Anders boys is something that i can happily listen to all day.....
Keep up the good work
