Keala is amazing on and off stage! It was an incredible experience to share the stage with her and perform for royalty!! Not only is Keala talented but she is kind, open hearted and so humble. I hope everyone who watches this performance feels the same energy we felt on stage - it was electric. This is a moment I will remember for the rest of my life!!

It's just beautiful how, after performing this song however many times at this point, the lyrics can still get to her emotionally; it makes it even more powerful with the emotion, and she still manages to pull through it and do a glorious job! I think a lot of singers wouldn't be able to pull it together and even finish the song after starting to cry. With her, when she almost starts to cry, it makes it better, because it lets you know the lyrics are real for her! She truly is a warrior!

[heatherfellows]

She doesn't not only sing perfectly but she is also a story teller! Fantastic!

[madderyunga]

When you know she didn't want to be the bearded lady, but Hugh convinced her to do it, it just makes it so much better!
She is the only person who can sing this song the way its meant to be sung 👌🏾 her emotion throughout it simply incredible! 💖

this song deserved an Oscar. no one remembers and cares about who won best song that year

After the loss of my wife in 2020, it was hard for me to watch or hear this song. This movie meant a lot to us. She was a paraplegic, and this song helped her through her rougher times. But since, I use it as a guide. Its helped give me strength when I thought I had none left. I love Keala Settle, and her voice gives me inspiration to keep walking into the future.

[damaro_music]

I love the fact that every time in the last chorus she gets very emotional and she barely continues to sing, but then her voice explodes!
I always cry to tears in that moment!

[juanangelom.moralescicala]

She has improved so much since she started singing this song live. The high parts are really hard, she handles them so much better now!

I love how the audience exploded at the precise moment she said the last word of the song. It must have felt incredible watching it live.

FINALLY someone who writes a song that speaks from the heart and tells the WORLD that no matter what people say or do they can't break our spirit and that we all are special in our own way. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I wish this song was around when I was a child.

[rebeccamyers]

She was a broken and very well could still be a broken person, but this is HER song. This song hits her where it counts. You can FEEL her sorrow and her joy and you don’t even have to be there with her! THAT is the power of an empath. Girl, from one empath to another, I salute you. From one singer to another, I adore you, and from one woman to another, I am with you.

[wharrington]

If you ever watch the first time she sang this you won't be disappointed. She gets everyone on their feet & brings Hugh to tears. This woman & song are a gift to the world.

[christianeljoelotamesacato]

I don't understand why this masterpiece got no award!

[Disturbednumfan]

the fact that Keala just moved to England, something shes wanted to do for years, the then be on THE royal variety show... beyond proud to say i saw her in Les Mis and Waitress and would never trade that for the world!

[homgolw]

This is the first time I've heard her sing it live since the Oscars when she sung it with a horrendous cold.
So nice to hear that amazing, powerful voice at it's best

[guitar_keys]

my wife hates me for keep on repeating this song playing over and over again but the song hits right through my soul!

[frankroppolo]

Her BEST performance of this song TO DATE! You can tell she has been developing and working her voice. Her high notes speak so much more clearly then before! Keep it up Keala Settle! You rock girl!

[Vyxsin]

That scream at the end is what does it for me. She knows she nailed her performance. She knows she's flawed, and that's ok.. she's marching forward regardless. That is one beautiful, strong, and confident woman!

This is such an inspiring and uplifting song, and Keala's raw emotion coming through is what makes this song so powerful. Its incredibly beautiful to watch 😍❤

[karaashcraft]

The shaking hands behind her representing her performance during the green light video are amazing!

[dromesburg]

Keala YOU ARE PHENOMENAL, BEAUTIFUL and SO INSPIRATIONAL!! Thank YOU SO MUCH! Benj Pasek and Justin Paul could not have composed a better meaning!! Literally one of the two most incredible scenes in The Greatest Showman. I love the entire There is SO MUCH behind this song, SO MUCH!
