"What's the fucking line?!" lmao I love her!!! She played off her mistakes like she meant to do them!!!!
Same with "Let's do that one over again!"
Shadyyo Yeah
Being able to handle a flub like you meant to do that and in character, or at least smoothly and quickly, is part and parcel of being a live performer. Expect the unexpected and be ready for it.
Can we not only appreciate not only how she handled her mistakes but how well the pianist followed her?! It was flawless!
i hope you mean "mistakes," and not true mistakes. she did them on purpose. an actress like would've, as required, memorized the song to and fro, up and down, till kingdom come.
@@twystedhumour the amount of times I've been on stage and messed up even after several months of rehearsals. One time our Gaston forgot to show up on stage for his scene with the 3 sisters (i was one of them), and we had to reword the whole scene so it made sense and kept the show going. You learn how to adapt and to "say yes".
Yes amazing accompanying
Eyebrows on point ✔️
Voice on fleek✔️
Stage presence amazing✔️
Humor✔️
Performance etiquette✔️
Overall personality 💯

"What I want from you is....your voice!!!
Okay
I SAID SHUT UP!!"
😂😂😂😂
She played off her mistakes like a G.
"That one wants to get the girl! ...Well..." 😂
I love her “oh pathetic”
finally someone who sounds right.
Damn velvet sure can sing
She was born to sing this song and this song was borne for her.
What does she need Ariel's voice for, hers is amazing, beautiful, and majestic. Also, if that wasn't enough she has a extraordinary sense of humor.
she's just soooooo expressive! i felt her malice to be as smooth as... pure chocolate. it's like i'm bathing in it lol
😂😂😂 when the guy nods in agreement when she says “awe pathetic” cracks me up
I swear, if Disney does a live adaptation of the little mermaid she could play Ursula.
Theface ofawsomeness there already was one!! if they ever revive it, she should def be ursula!!
Theface ofawsomeness sherie Renee Scott was the original Ursula you should check it out
Well they gave it to melissa mcarty
@@TotalmenteEng let's make a petition for Lili to play Ursula
@@marcoesposito2915 ill sing
" what is the FUCKING LINE?!?!?!" I was not prepared 😹😹😹
I love how Lilli handled her mistakes in character as Ursula. It just made it way more funny
She will make a great Velvette for Hazbin Hotel (it's been confirmed she is playing her in the series).
Came here to hear the voice to see what I'm supposed to expect for Hazbin hotel, and I agree with you! She'll make an amazing job!!
And she absolutely killed it
She is fire in hazbin
and she did it gadly!! wonderfull she made it
HER “POOR UNFORNTANTE SOULS” GAVE ME CHILLS
"I SAID SHUT UP!" ICONIC!!!
This is so much better than rebel wilson. By far this best cover of this I've ever seen. Great characterization, and superb voice!
Wish I were witty Coz this is a Broadway singer, Rebel is just an actor. Theres no comparing the two.
This is amazing, this video came up in my feed when I needed it most, I needed to make a drag performance, so now I'm channelling Lilli whilst performing Poor Unfortunate Twinks in my local drag competition.
Do you have an insta?
Is that Katya in you pic? So lucky!! xx
ffs liam
Well, how’d it go, 6 years later? You remember?
THAT VOICE! DAMN GIRL, SLAY!!!!
"aw.. Pathetic.."
It’s literally incalculable how much I’d pay to see a full performance of TLM with her as ursula
she was made for this song!!!
*clutches chest
fUCK I"M GAY
GIRL SAME AS FUCK
This performance completely ruined all others versions of this song for me. Not complaining though.
@w2aternooz cuz its so good, listening to other versions just feels flat compared to this.
I hope this doesn’t include Pat Carrol’s version lmao
I just want to mesh this version and the Titus Burgess version together. The flavor would be amazing.
Well, I do think she didn't seem to make that mistake appear a mistake after all!!! Very well played and has exceptionally made the audience participate to correct the mistake.. if that is what you can call a mistake. But for me, it's superbly perfect!!! The character's ALIVE!!! Everything's on point... BBBRRRRAAAVVVIIISSSSSIIMMOOO!!!!
yeah, i had to laugh at people calling those excerpts as "mistakes." Lilli is an experienced broadway actress, with hundreds of hours devoted to memorizing lines. those "mistakes" were for effect, and it worked!
No performer's as good as covering their mistakes as she is unless they've learned how to be that good from years of experience of making mistakes and then doing their best to make it look like they meant to do that. ;D
Who's here after seeing her in Hazbin Hotel
You and me both.
Me
How is Lilli Cooper so good at everything she does
Lili Cooper is such a performer! I love her soooo much
Gosh, I suddenly have a crush
I want more of it.. I want to attend it.. I just.. It's needed
This is delightful.
oh god, she is too amazing! i started listening to SpongeBob soundtrack ad fell in love with her voice, her backstage vids are so funny. and now seeing this! this lady slays ! even her mistakes are awesome!
Everything was perfect. Even her mistake she made the best.
Sandy Cheeks hasn't been the same since she traded in science for magic.
Lol 😅 she's amazing the singing performance was on point she was funny to her presence was awesome so evil indeed exactly usula I love the Disney villans
what a goddess
she killed this performance omg she'd be great for this role
just went to see the original and the new versions and it's crazy how much better lilli is. the drama alone is crazy.
Seen Rebel Wilson, pretty good
Queen Latifa, not bad but so happy?
This. FREAKEN PERFECT
I always imagine that she's blackmailing or influencing a congresswoman. "It won't cost musch :) Just you voice :shrug:"
Akasha Mouginot bro I want that story
the guy at 1:42 being blinded by the light is such a mood like how do people get used to that even??
This had the potential to be legendary. But wow. still great
yaaaaaas queen!
this is amazing
I've watched this last year and watching it now, I never knew that she would play Sandy Cheeks in Spongebob Bway 🙂
I'm proud of how much she improved!
Gurl, you slayin!! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼😍
She was also Sandy Cheeks in the Television version, I think.
Very few people can pull off a performance in which the mistakes make it even better... fantastic in every way. Brava!
HOLY CRAP THIS CHANGED MY LIFE
Unbeliveable!!!!
"Shut up"
"I SAID SHUT UP" xDDD
Velvette from Hazbin Hotel
THE BACKBONE OF THE VEES
I swear to god, I was listening to this song before my dance school's Christmas party and when my mom dragged me up to sing a Christmas song, I blanked and sang this instead. Spoiler alert: It doesn't quite hit the same when you don't have the fabulous piano. I blame you for this amazing song.
I am so in love with her
i love her omg
amazing - such a hard song - she was perfection
LIVING FOR THIS
WTF!!! Omg this is perfect.
All I can picture is Sandy Cheeks making a deal with Spongebob
THAT TONE!!!!
DAMN
I love the attitude!
Her voice is just beyond this world like it’s actually incredible 🤯
Absolute beauty
You can tell how much she relished doing that song.
Amazing 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏼
L O V E !!!
"What's the fucking line?!" Hello Velvette XD
the fact she can be fucking up and still give one of the best performances of this song ever...
Those were some awesome audiences! They gave her a lot of encouragement!
No matter how many times Disney remakes the Little Mermaid this will forever be my favorite Ursula performance and no one can dissuade me from it
WhAt iS tHe FaUkiNg LiNe
When she gave the microphone to the girl after saying "What I want from you is... your voice" and she just answered OK I felt SO DAMN ANGRY. How could she NOT know the line. Fuck it, I should've been in her place, I assure you I would've got up the stage and become Ariel myself.
Come to NEW ZEALAND to do a show!!!!
Yaaaaaas Elphaba
i always come back to this
PURE LOVE💗
Lillie villainously nailed Ursula! She would make the Perfect Ursula for Disney Cast her as Ursula please She’s is two Villain to be Ursula!
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I love this how can I be part of this!?
the best!
black queen
Just got back from watching Spongebob the Musical.
(I just realized she played Sandy in the musical)
Velvette as Ursula anyone?
2:21 I can’t tell what the guy in the booth with the spotlight is thinking. He seemed pleased at first, but then he seems to be having an inner monologue where he is confused about whether he liked it or not, and by the end his face reads sorta offended a bit, like he didn’t appreciate something that just happened? Maybe it’s just the bright fuckin light blasting him in the face. Idk I’m probably overthinking it, wouldn’t be the first, or last, time. Lmao
oh god now i need to hear her as helene
This is my inspiration for a performance I'm doing in October... Thank youuuuu. SO funny.
Isn't she in Hazbin Hotel?
Yes she voices Velvette one of the members of the Vees.
She’s the backbone of the Vees.
@@VexedCastleYES
@@VexedCastle Mad that she acted respectless
Can someone please send all these performances (except Rebel Wilson's) to Melissa Mccarthy so she gets why we don't want her
Sandy?!!?
2:36 😂😂😂😂😂
WHAT IS THE FUCKING LINE!!!!?!!?!!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
world best ursula ever...
OMG SANDY CURSING???!??!!!

My dear, sweet child. That's what I do. It's what I live for.
To help unfortunate merfolk like yourself.
Poor souls with no one else to turn to.
I admit that in the past I've been a nasty
They weren't kidding when they called me, well, a witch
But you'll find that nowadays
I've mended all my ways
Repented, seen the light, and made a switch
To this
True? Yes.
And I fortunately know a little magic
It's a talent that I always have possessed
And dear lady, please don't laugh
I use it on behalf
Of the miserable, the lonely, and depressed (pathetic)
Poor unfortunate souls
In pain, in need
This one longing to be thinner
That one wants to get the girl
And do I help them?
Yes, indeed
Those poor unfortunate souls
So sad, so true
They come flocking to my cauldron
Crying, "Spells, Ursula, please!"
And I help them!
Yes I do
Now it's happened once or twice
Someone couldn't pay the price
And I'm afraid I had to rake 'em 'cross the coals
Yes I've had the odd complaint
But on the whole I've been a saint
To those poor unfortunate souls
Have we got a deal?
If I become human, I'll never be with my father or sisters again.
But you'll have your man, heh heh. Life's full of tough choices, isn't it? Heh heh.
Oh, and there is one more thing.
We haven't discussed the subject of payment.
But I don't have-
I'm not asking much, just a token really, a trifle!
What I want from you is - your voice.
But without my voice, how can I-
You'll have your looks, your pretty face.
And don't underestimate the importance of body language, ha!
The men up there don't like a lot of blabber
They think a girl who gossips is a bore!
Yet on land it's much prefered for ladies not to say a word
And after all dear, what is idle babble for?
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
True gentlemen avoid it when they can
But they dote and swoon and fawn
On a lady who's withdrawn
It's she who holds her tongue who get's a man
Come on you poor unfortunate soul
Go ahead!
Make your choice!
I'm a very busy woman and I haven't got all day
It won't cost much
Just your voice!
You poor unfortunate soul
It's sad but true
If you want to cross the bridge, my sweet
You've got the pay the toll
Take a gulp and take a breath
And go ahead and sign the scroll
Flotsam, Jetsam, now I've got her, boys
The boss is on a roll
This poor unfortunate soul
lol
