I kept on watching this piece so many times. There is so much love and kindness in the song and how Rebecca sang it. You can feel the love and hurt longing and loving a child that is not hers. ❤❤❤ great job. This is the best version of I wont mind.
The technical command behind this seemingly effortless performance is astounding. It must be what allows her to tell the story so compellingly with each expression, as if this gorgeous voice wasn't pouring out perfection all the while. What a stunning talent, and I'm so sorry she's not still with us. But how lucky we are to have performances like this captured forever. Thank you, Rebecca Luker.
This is one of my favourite things to watch on youtube. Beautiful song and one of the most convincing performances I've ever seen - and that by just using facial expressions. Just fantastic! I've been showing this to all of my friends at university :)
Thank I would see it from all sorts of ways especially after having watched The Berlin Dance School in which the real mother has to pretend that her sister is her child’s mother. This song could have been written for that scenario. Anyway it’s a beautiful song. I just happen to adore Victoria Clark but everyone sings it wonderfully. It must make you so proud to her your songs spill out of peoples lungs with feelings.
Yes it does.. because it would give the song such a bitter sweet meaning but I gather she is the child's God mother in the context of the show... but thanks for your comment

Remembering the talented Broadway soprano Rebecca Luker (1961-2020)
Such a beautiful song, delivered beautifully

This never fails to bring me to tears 🥺💞

GORGEOUS!!! Beautiful music, lyrics, voice, performance....
This has to be the definitive version of Jeff Blumenkrantz's perfect song. Flawless, soulful interpretation. She is amazing!
Your expressions when singing this sing are so honest and beautiful - mixed with your gorgeous voice. Tears! Thank you for sharing
xx
I don't know which is more ravishing, Rebecca's looks or her voice.
Beautiful! Simply beautiful. Great rendition -- it brought me to tears. :-)
simply gorgeous
I know the context of this song from "The Jeff Blumenkrantz Songbook Podcast". This is so emotional and heart-touching.
Brian, in the context of the show for which this was written, Lizzie is godmother to the baby.

How....does Rebecca look 25 even with no/minimal makeup? She is easily the hottest/sexiest 50 year old on earth.
I miss Becca
Miraculous.
For which show was this written? Touching song, touching performance.
My not be helpful now, but it's The Other Franklin
Can someone help me.. is Lizzie the child's mother... really?
+Brian Eduardo does it matter?
Yes it does.. because it would give the song such a bitter sweet meaning but I gather she is the child's God mother in the context of the show... but thanks for your comment
She is an unrelated family friend who longs to be a mother. its in the lyrics.
That has always been my interpretation. Not knowing until lately where the song came from, for years I assumed “Auntie Lizzie” was the mother.
