I’m really impressed with professional musicians. They can lower the key and follow the singer. Of course, if he can’t do that, he would be out of a job.
The pianist lowered the key by down to three lines tho. I mean that was too high especially for a performance that hasn’t been practiced before. She still pointed out to him like you bastard don’t mess with me because the song is slow to climax it’s getting like b b ba ba bah BAH BAAAAH! Like you just have to consider that BAAAH moment. Lol. She nailed it regardless.
I agree, however, if you check the her cover of this song, she recorded that song in a lower tone; and in this occasion, the music director set the tone to be higher, that’s why she said: “That’s high”... Problem here? THIS LADY DOESN’T KNOW LIMITS WHEN IT COMES TO HER VOICE, lol!
She has such a big powerful voice she needed to step away so it wouldn't overwhelm the people sitting close to her. And you see how much reach and power it had at that distance. I think her voice can be heard on Pluto it is massive! Made me cry & cheer too❤
She is considered one of the three greatest American Idol contestants. She should have won. But then she showed them all by becoming a big star afterwards.
I don't know if she would've won. She didn't have the confidence she has now ( not saying she didn't have any). That season was stacked with talent but she should have gone further than they allowed. And remember this is the same year that Fantasia won, and I don't think she would have beaten her.
The term is “24/7” not 24/24-7/7. It means 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. It’s an obvious hyperbole to imply that anyone could do anything for the entire 168 hrs of a week though.
Lyrics: To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow And to run where the brave dare not go To right the unrightable wrong And to love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star This is my quest To follow that star No matter how hopeless No matter how far To reach the unreachable Star!!!
I have watched this over 200 times. My heart just melts. Jennifer Hudson's voice and courage is a reflection of Gods miraculous creation. Her voice and her use of it is out of this world. Its truly an unreachable star. Who else can reach the star qualities of her voice?
I’ve watched this about 20 times. This is someone who knows how to sing and understands her own voice. Her musicality shines here and you can tell how much she genuinely loves this song. Her incredible range has and sound has come so far from the original American Idol audition - truly an Impossible Dream.
Yesssss her range has definitely expanded. I know she's been doing a lot of classical training over the years. She posted an operatic clip a while ago on her Instagram. It was mind blowing 😍
To dream the impossible dream To fight the unbeatable foe To bear with unbearable sorrow And to run where the brave dare not go To right the unrightable wrong And to love pure and chaste from afar To try when your arms are too weary To reach the unreachable star This is my quest To follow that star No matter how hopeless No matter how far
it’s been four years and i still find myself coming back to this video and being full of tears.. is theres one thing in my life that i know im right about, its the fact that she was BORN to do this.. this is the reason why God put her on this earth; she was meant to move us with her voice. Bless her heart.
I LOVE at 1:31 when her lil finger goes up like she’s saying, “ y’all hear this part, okay”!!! And then when you see her get the idea to walk it out when she sings the “ every step of…” at 1:42❣️❣️❣️
I was afraid to say that before, but her natural powerful singing is better than anyone who can do a lot of runs, this true beautiful talent allows me to call her a ✨LEGEND!✨
@@yataspencer9522 I went to see Phantom of the Opera a couple years ago and the girl next to me looks over and we are both crying during one of the numbers! Haha that’s what music is for . Do me a favor and get out to a show when it’s safe again! The theatre needs people like you
@@DylanRomanov next time you go and it’s safe think of me! Embrace the sounds and feelings! I’ll be there right next to you in a sobbing mess, because sometimes it’s the little things that brings us joy! Just like your statement ❤️ nothing but love from Louisville,KY ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️🤞🏽
Honestly she needs more ballads!!! I don't know why but ballads aren't popular in the industry any more. Some of her pop songs were good, but pop is definitely not for her
If I can remember, it wasn't up to the judges by that point, it was up to America. To be honest, America voted Jennifer Hudson and Fantasia in the bottom category. Now they are the two most successful artists from that season. Go figure.
I want to believe that Simon knew that if she won she wouldn’t have been AS successful. Look at the winners overall. Only 2 have had great success. Kelly Clarkson and Carrie Underwood are the tops but none of the other winners. Laine Hardy is having some success. But the runners up or further back have had good runs. Daughtery, Aiken, Lambert, etc.
@@dawgman9449 very true. The winners are often contracted and with a very specific trajectory that is predetermined by FOX and the non winners are free agents so they more or less get to do whatever they want
Love your comment...I feel like everyone has a season and that was Fantasia's. Later here comes JHud doing what she does best and gave us Dreamgirls and won a grammy. She out did Beyonce in that movie.
I'm glad for this video because the first one i saw was edited to where the first thing i heard was "i wanna sing" Glad she was asked, but still pissed she has not recorded this version.
I don't care if you practiced for a week prior... that was awsome! Course you know the first time I heard that song .. Jim Neighbors performed it with the US Marine Corps Orchestra/Band...
This was magical. She jumped right in there. The way she walked on stage, put that finger out telling the band to hold on, and went to the very top and held it with vibrato. Baby listen!!!!! This woman is absolutely amazing 👏🏾
The strength of this woman will always amaze me. I remember when her family was killed. She stills shows up however she can daily and with an amazing talent.

I'm not taking anything away from Jennifer, but I will tell you her intricate watching of Patti LaBelle over the years influenced this tremendously
"I feel so unprepared."
performs a Grammy worthy performance.
Right !!!!
She's criminally underrated. 😓
The lady is an EGOT.
😢🙌🏾🙌🏾 right! What is she talking about 🤔🙂↔️🙂↔️
“That’s high”
Proceeds to sing the end note in the higher octave.
I’ve watched this more than 40 times...
Me too. I saved to a playlist
Me too
She's breathtaking and I've never been bothered about her but this performance is something else it really takes your breath
Literally me revisiting this video every other month
50 for me
Nobody talked about how she walked AND held that note at the same time😍I can barely walk and breathe 😂🤣
PERIOD! I JUMP OUT MY SLEEP TRYING TO CATCH MY BREATH LMMFAO
Okay that was amazing.
I can barely walk!
Same here. 😂😂
U just did!!
It’s when she says “that’s high” and then just carries on with it !! A queen !!!!
The pianist lowered the key after she said that but nonetheless, she’s so talented
I’m really impressed with professional musicians. They can lower the key and follow the singer. Of course, if he can’t do that, he would be out of a job.
@@ConnorC97 No, it's in the the same key

@@mattheturk8158 It's in Bb since the start
If I had Jennifer Hudson's voice I would sing all day everyday
I would too. Yall would be sick of me 😂
Ya same lol
💯💯💯❤❤

And you would loose your voice. You have to rest your voice too.
Doesn't matter how long ago this was taped, her in March 2024...JHud Continues to be magnificently great!
The pianist and drummer improvise on point. They get just as much props at Jhud.
No they don't. They get props, yes! But not nearly as much as JHUD. Put some respekk on her name when you mention it💯
@@josephlewis1819 stop whining!
@@greyworm1791 You must be a crackhead

Yes, those musicians have to be excellent in their own class to be able to improvise as they do. Thank you for noticing.
She convinced me. I’m gonna reach that star‼️
Yes indeed. Have faith 🙏🏾
Amen ☺️
me too!!!!!
There IS one. Check her tribute to Muhammad Ali
Lmao 🤣 🌟
the power, the clarity, the projection, the ease, the emotion, the vibrato… she’s incredible. ive never listened to jennifer hudson, but this is it.
This. Is. It. ❤
She lied so smooth...talm bout “That’s high”🤣 love it
Right LOL 😂
If she did say that’s High she was probably comparing the recorded version she did, this was a whole octave higher
it only shows how skilled her belts are like... omg I would sound like a car
I agree, however, if you check the her cover of this song, she recorded that song in a lower tone; and in this occasion, the music director set the tone to be higher, that’s why she said: “That’s high”...
Problem here? THIS LADY DOESN’T KNOW LIMITS WHEN IT COMES TO HER VOICE, lol!
I'm pretty sure she said "that's hot" talking about the melody the boy played from the piano.
The reason she walked onto the stage at the end of the song is because that last note deserved to be on a stage.
💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
Facts
She has such a big powerful voice she needed to step away so it wouldn't overwhelm the people sitting close to her. And you see how much reach and power it had at that distance. I think her voice can be heard on Pluto it is massive! Made me cry & cheer too❤
We need a full version of this
There is a FULL VERSION she performed this song 10 years ago to MUHAMMAD ALI the exact same way.....it’s on RUclips check it out
They have a version that she did to Ali and for some odd reason they said that’s new 🤦🏾
GOD KNOWS
@@troynellsantana it was not as good as this. she was more relaxed here.
@@BlackPanther-ht9fb DEFINITELY DISAGREE!!!!!!!…..she tore it the fuck up the first time you trippin
“That’s high”… like this isn’t THE perfect key for her. Just mesmerizing.
The key she said that it was higher than the one she sang it in
Right!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Didn't she say "that's hot"? As if he hit the right note?
🤣🤣🏃🏾
I think she said “that’s hot”
Man I wish she could write like Adele. The industry cant right for that voice. It has to be her soul to the heavens crying out
This is what unprepared looks like to a Jeniffer Hudson! It blew the roof for such an amazing performance.
The tone, The Voice, the living legend, the nerve of her to do this to us! Can’t stop watching!
You're super hot man !!!! Damn 👀
Right 👍
The nerve ok!
One of the most powerful singers ever. If you don't get chills ... God help you
I'm telling you!
She is underrated....I just love her...
Never underrated or underestimated for the the ones that know😊❤❤❤
She is considered one of the three greatest American Idol contestants. She should have won. But then she showed them all by becoming a big star afterwards.
She is also an EGOT winner, having won the Emmy, the Grammy, the Oscar, and the Tony.
ITS ALWAYS RIGGED!!!!

@@PRIMEGospel I agree. 7th place was crazy. But the Jennifer Hudson on American Idol is not the same performer she became after the show.
If I had that voice.. I would never, NEVER, stop singing! I would sing 24/24 - 7/7!!!!
Facts
Same
Same here!!! She's amazing!!!
The term is “24/7” not 24/24-7/7. It means 24 hrs a day 7 days a week. It’s an obvious hyperbole to imply that anyone could do anything for the entire 168 hrs of a week though.
One of the most overplayed songs of the last century. JHud breathes new life into "Impossible Dream".
Lyrics:
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To reach the unreachable
Star!!!
❤❤❤❤
I'm in my 60's with two bad knees and a bad back. I would be standing for this.
She just get up off the chair and rips into it. No practice, no auto tune. Mind Blowing.
I have watched this over 200 times. My heart just melts. Jennifer Hudson's voice and courage is a reflection of Gods miraculous creation. Her voice and her use of it is out of this world. Its truly an unreachable star. Who else can reach the star qualities of her voice?
Yes truly a miracle!
Yessss!!! Yesssss!!! We can reach whatever star we dreamed of going to!!!
Very well put!!! I can't even put the words together about how amazing She is!!!
this is the best rendition of this song. The Universe is needed ful version
When she walked to the stage still holding that note was more than magnificent 🔥🔥🔥💙💙
I’ve watched this about 20 times. This is someone who knows how to sing and understands her own voice. Her musicality shines here and you can tell how much she genuinely loves this song. Her incredible range has and sound has come so far from the original American Idol audition - truly an Impossible Dream.
Me too! She nails it on this version!
Yesssss her range has definitely expanded. I know she's been doing a lot of classical training over the years. She posted an operatic clip a while ago on her Instagram. It was mind blowing 😍
I see Jennifer Hudson, I click, I watch, I cry. My day gets better.
Love the way she takes the note for a walk
Jennifer sings one note and I'm already in tears. 😭
SHE DID IT WITH NO EFFORT. THIS IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A GIFT AND TALENT. SHE IS TRULY GIFTED.
The pianist is so handsome
I’m literally in love lol
He is ❤️
The stage was calling her at the end! My god this woman is marvelous!
"Oh that's high"
Jennifer lied as naturally as she breathed.
She never said “too high” lol!
Why did she lie? She just said that‘s high, and not too high for me ;)))
That last run was so good she had to take it for a walk.
Who is the pianist? His expressions are so adorable
Right, every time he does something for her it seems he's giving it his all !!!
IKR
Isn't he? He's David Tench The voice UK MD
He is adorable!
With the high notes, nobody does it better than Jennifer Hudson. She did shoot to the ⭐️ 💫
And she did it impromptu with no rehearsals or warning.....
She didn’t sing, she SANG! We need another album! 😍😍🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Gives me chills. I lost count of how many times I’ve watched this.
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
Perfect, obrigado amigo.
Does this jerk tears from anybody else ? Just her pure talent and powerful voice is just insane !!!

Why would anyone else ever try to sing this song ever again? I need her to record this. 😍🔥
Her voice is higher than my ambitions.
it's her attitude and her sass and her soul - it's just phenomenal. wow
I LOVE at 1:31 when her lil finger goes up like she’s saying, “ y’all hear this part, okay”!!! And then when you see her get the idea to walk it out when she sings the “ every step of…” at 1:42❣️❣️❣️
1:42 is my favorite part. I watch this over and over just for that part. I love her eye sparkling up
She's motioning to the band leader that this is the finale.
Jennifer may just have one of the greatest female singing voices of all time. She is amazing.
Tom Jones smiling when she started singing made my day. She is and always be amazing.
It's 2023 ..am still watching..i actually watch this for more than 50 times
The best interpretation of this song 🤩
absolutely

A MAIOR vocalista deste século, mas tão esnobada pela indústria! Essa mulher chegou ao patamar em q Whitney, Aretha, Celine Dion e outros estão. 😭🔥
She’s not snubbed by the industry. She’s won an Oscar and Grammys. She just played Aretha in a movie about her life. Pay attention!

voice so powerful...no microphone needed

This song was my mantra when I was in a middle of a crisis. So powerful.
Jennifer god bless you. You are the best alive in this millennium.
You are soooooo right, she is the best alive in my opinion, and I don‘t discuss about this with anyone lol
Can't even count the times that I have watched this J hud singing
Why do I keep rewatching this. 😭 🫶🏽
She is so brilliant and Sublime. Can you only imagine if she warmed up her voice first.
Who can watch it only once? ...😊
