Her satirical humor thwacking the magnificent show is priceless
The whining!
Saw her on Broadway with Mandy Patinkin in Evita. Unbelievable show and voices!!
I saw them on Broadway also. Memorable!
Me too! ❤ Once upon a time when you could get twofers. Spent my high school years cutting classes and taking the bus down union turnpike to the train!
Me too!
Someone is a very good pianist, when he or she can make forget a whole orchestra.
Patti Lupone is a great.
Tears in my eyes with this song in this video.
Like fine wine she only gets better with age. Haunting
how can one human being have so much talent
The best Fantine....she and Colm Wilkinson were wonderful saw them in london cried my eyes out in the first act...that was a first
Colm Wilkinson was the best for sure but I am giving the best Fantine to Ruthie Henshall. I saw her and really believed her as Fantine.
It is a great play. Generations upon generations will revere it.
@@mrjamiecrawford Totally agree, her performance is 2nd rate music hall level,not even Susan Boyle standard.
@@Mulknwan Yeah Patti has been mis cast in quite a lot of roles and this was one of them.
She sang it like a tequila-intoxicated Fantine. It’s just my opinion. ✌️
and it's thanks to her creativity, the "shame" note sounds how it does (originally it was a sustained note) her post-death antics are also the reason Fantine is a barricade boy.
Patti LuPone on Broadway, that this was based on, was a fantastic show! She was so funny and entertaining!
This entire concert is so amazing. I can't imagine why they didn't include Meadowlark though.
This was broadcasted on PBS and it was only a “highlights” concert, which stinks that that’s all there is! In the original Broadway concert, she did the whole story of Meadowlark before the song like she did on her Patti Live cd. It’s the best story and so funny!!
I would have killed to see Meadowlark. She even says in the PBS interview she did with this that she wasn't sure why Meadowlark wasn't included. Weird, since it's one of her staples. The Patti Live CD is one of the best, if not THE best. :-)
I love the Patti Live cd! Especially the Sunset blurb at the end!! My only complaint is that it’s not fully orchestrated! I find that Patti’s voice is too big for just a piano! Lol!
If I could give but one award, it would be to this lady, this actress. None other is needed. She is the epitome of all theatre. She encompasses all the talents. Her very essence is overwhelming, yet inviting. The only thing she hasn’t done (to my knowledge) is a one-woman performance. I would spend my vacation money to be there.
Haha! I love Patti’s stories!! “ShUT uP! WoRk iT oUT!! StOp yOUr WhINiNg!!”
All the way from Long Island, N.Y.
Simply beautiful!!❤
She could be a stand-up comedian if her day job doesn’t pan out.
I'm glad that her fans derive enjoyment. This performance somehow seemed lifeless.
I live Patti and this song is exceptional
Nice...and now because of you J, I drink vodka stingers. For me it's been REMY stingers shaken and served in a snifter over ice. 40 yrs. LOL. 😂
Simply wonderful.
I want to see Patti Lupone and Zoe Lyons do a movie together as wacky aunt and wayward niece.
Saw her when she performed it in the West End!
Patti fucking LuPone is a goddess
Excellence makes me cry. I'm weeping
Beautiful voice - wow!
Is there anything Christine Barenski cannot do? She is amazing ❤
I think she captured Fantine very well here. At the point Fantine just lost everything.. her husband abandoned her with their child, she lost her job which hardly paid her… she had to pay a couple of low life con artist inn keepers who extorted Fantine and were horrible to her daughter and now she has absolutely know idea of how she will provide for her daughter who she loves more than life itself.
Great summary, but the father of Cosette was never Fantine's husband. She thought it was a serious relationship. To her lover, she was just an amusing, temporary dalliance.
I really admire you and love your voice!!!
Oh. Well, I love how Erivo eschews the platitudinous song “stylings” of so many previous “Black Artists. She just SINGS!
This is my favourite of the modern musicals. I've seen it on stage, on DVD, and on film, and the minute the haunting music starts the tears flow. Though she's talented, I'm not fussed on this performance.
I had to google “not fussed”, I’ve never heard that expression. I’ll be using it frequently now, it’s perfect for so many things
@@tjwash5118 it's probably a kiwi and Aussie expression. Unsure if it's used in the UK.
Who cares
One opinion noted
@@timothyleon558 isn't the point of the comments section to join in the discussion and express a view? Which aspect offends you?
Astounding performance!
Gracias
I want that frock.
Magnifica, mas no final não tenho palavras pra descrever tanto talento. wow
"You're on!" "Oh, how am I doing?"
Good thing she could sing
wow, just wow
You could get lost in her voice.
Encouraging ? 🤔 2024
🥰 !!!
I saw Les Miserables in London and thought it was the most depressing musical I'd seen - when you thought things couldn't get any worse - they did! I couldn't wait to leave so I really enjoyed Patti's take on LM. Nice to know some felt the same way as I did!

Ever been a Rigger in an Election Cycle?
(R) not 🚫 N.
I've been a fan of Ms. LuPone since she played Evita onstage. I was honestly disappointed in this performance. It seemed to lack any emotion until the ending. Perhaps I've been spoiled by too many times hearing Lea Salonga's most excellent renditions. For those who disagree, such is life.
Her stories about the backstage working of the how, however, are very funny.
Honestly, I prefer Susan Boyle's version, precisely for the gritty emotion. The beginning of this really was rather antiseptic.
Did God not to intervene on the member of the public who died at the rally?
She pulled it out in the bottom of the ninth. Up till then, IMHO, she was reciting not really singing. By which I mean her technique was faultless. But that faultlessness belied the urgent emotional necessity of the song. In other words, her voice upstaged the material and lacked connection to the story.
So, commence vilifying me! I have criticized Patti Lupone. Bad things will surely begin happening to me.
But listen: She has the pipes. They should be in service to the story being sung. This time? They weren't, not until the last couple bars. Commence flaming me, BRAD.
100%
Sadly, correct.
I like Vivek but his point about Biden not apologising for creating an environment where politica violence occurs is rubbish......Did Donald apologise for creatining an environment where Jan 6th happened?
Patti is just singing whereas Anne Hathaway acted as she sang. Imo.
Absolutely disagree.
Much too mechanical.
@@miguelservetus9534 Strange, I don’t think I’m known either for or by my comments. This is just an opinion just like whatever you think is just an opinion.
@@raymondlancaster3355
Reading my comment, I am concerned that someone has hacked my account. 🤪
Apology extended, comment deleted.
The musical degenerates the heroes of France..
How come? It's just a musical. With music, every line became more emotional and understandable, you know.
piss poor performance.... sorry, I like her in general but this was just .... meh...
agreed, her diction is bad. what is going on, she's usually sensational.
I don't like her performance here. Not half as good as her recording
Yeah. The melody was attenuated and the voice, thin.
I've sung this with amateur choirs better.
Jesus, sing through your nose much!!???
Yes she can sing. Also, obnoxious
Who isn't these days?
Anne Hathaway in the movie will always be the gold standard.
Tell me you've never seen anything other than the Les Mis movie without actually telling me you've never seen anything other than the Les Mis movie.
@@Xenomiggsit’s also possible they just prefer the movie version. Patti Lupone is great but I personally don’t think her Fantine works. Brilliant technique, but she’s never not Patti Lupone regardless of what character she’s playing. She sounds like her wealthy husband just cheated on her, not like a peasant who has lost just about everything. People don’t have to all share the popular opinion.
@@Masonj919 Oh, but see, what you're saying is different. I'm not even saying Patti is my favorite Fantine; but they were pretty definitive with the "gold standard" comment, that's all.
She is very nasty but l love her voice.
Pretty mediocre. And I usually love Patti
She almost makes it like a good song. What a piece of crap that musical is .
You must be joking I loved Les Miz. I must say I’m not impressed by her singing here. Too much tremolo and not very good compared to others. She was a good Evita, but not good in this part.
Sounds like she doesnt take her job seriously. And her singing lacks nuance in this video.
Meh. I’ve heard better.😮
Susan Boyle...
The fuck you have
The fuck you have
She’s a legend
Soulless. There for a paycheck only. No matter the check amount, that audience wasted their time.
A very crappy and typical american humour which I did not appreciate. However, song was lovely!
Agree. Diminished her stature with such a poor attempt at humour - all words obviously rehearsed to death.
@@robertgeorgemiller278 It is very common for performers (of all nationalities, it is not unique to Americans) to interject short breaks in a concert with the backstory of a song. And, yes, of course, it is rehearsed--what a *bizarre* comment. Aside from brief spontaneous remarks, all aspects of a concert are rehearsed, including lengthier stories. Even cabaret shows, which are known for their banter with the audience, have their stories rehearsed. I did not think it was the funniest story, but I am perplexed why you and the other poster seem offended? All she did was recount a time she tuned out during her break because she was bored and missed her stage cue, leaving her fellow cast member alone on stage to vamp before she rushed in as ghost. There was nothing crass or offensive about it. Move on.
@@chatterbox11 Didn't say I was offended. You invented that. I said it diminished the performance.
@@robertgeorgemiller278 Your comment suggested you were offended because you said it "diminished her stature" as if she had done something condemnable. I do not see how telling a silly little story about missing your stage cue as an introduction to a song "diminishes the stature" of any performer. And, the other poster said he did not "appreciate it," which usually implies some sort of offense. It is not worth over discussing this, but I think you both are greatly overreacting to the usual sort of stage banter one experiences at concerts. You can hear the audience appreciated it and thought it was a cute story, and that ultimately is what matters.

@@chatterbox11 Bless you. No one is offended.
She can sing but she sure isn’t funny.
Is she supposed to be funny? or rather doing a serious imitation of a palooka middel amerikun?
Well I dont really see her as diva who destroyed the room when she heard Glenn Close. Obviously she didnt mind on Les Mis in America. For film its others. I feel theyre on road in temporary rooms for years on end, so many performances and for one who made Evita, who Les Mis songs so notable, its not just shame or insult with film actors as Kevin Kline and now Glenn Close too rubbing it in. And seeing that room all those years and smashing I can totally see that. I dont see it as diva at all but we dont know how it is to live years performing weeks on end, making those key sacrifices, and jeez look at this room this huge solitary bed traveling intransient feel, and all seem like fake back stabbers she worked with and how one would feel walking into such room after the shame and insult of a ceiling taunting her that she cannot reach is BRUTAL. thats horrible. from theatre to film. other way around is so easily done. horrible.
