She has such power in her fantastic voice 👏👏🎶🎤

[tydusrain]

many Grizabellas have nailed this performance in terms of vocal skill and ability, but there's something about Elaine's version that just hits so much harder. she really conveys the pain and tiredness and desperation to be accepted by the family that rejected her that is so unique and feels so genuine. this is my absolute favorite version ever since I was a kid. absolutely beautiful and powerful💕

[Rainmaker]

This is the very first time I've seen her perform out of costume, and by far, the most moving. Her facial expressions from 0:28 through 0:32 was simply a master class in facial performance. Brava!

[wendlaw]

There is no voice like hers. No one can beat her.

[patriciacook]

SHE MADE IT HER OWN, NO ONE ELSES SINGS AND CATCHES THE NUANCES IN HER SPECTACULAR VOICE. BRAVO, ❤️❤️❤️

[adriantownsend]

...Such emotion, such passion, such a powerful voice!

[BellaDonna]

I love it no one can top her singing it like this

The last thing I did with my love was to see Cats on Broadway. It was his way of saying his time was short. He was the glamor cat Grizabella. The love is still there, John! I am SO thankful for that!

[gabrielstevenson]

She has such an amazing powerful voice that just takes your breath away and gives you goosebumps

[jacquesmostert]

One of the greatest greats. Brava! Brava! Brava!

[awesometv]

Oh my dear, wonderful powerful voice it's all about telling the story that draws you in. Yes, a lot of singers can sing but you don't really care what they're saying

[emmysrandomcrafts]

I love this song so much. No one else can sing it like her.

[donaldtrumpet]

She has the complete package. Voice, presentation, grooming and all. Love her esp her duet with Susan Boyle “I know him
so well”. Watched the video over & over again.

[jerryclukey]

WOW!!! What a performance! So much emotion in addition to her beautiful voice! This type of performance is what seperates the best singers (and this lady is one of the best) from the others!

I can listen to her over a river and over and over. Her voice is spectacularly fantastic that touches me so deep that I feel my body tremble. She’s just amazing!!!

[WhyWouldYou]

I first saw her in Cats in the 90s and I've loved her ever since ❤

[roselainerichemond]

Today, I want today is the day of my celebration and the beginning of my every day to come with passion and love ❤️ yes love today.

[ГалинаСафронова-сн]

Её голос, это ВОСТОРГ!!!
БРАВО, ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО, НЕЗАБЫВАЕМАЯ КРАСОТА ГОЛОСА!!!

[prettymuchpearl]

I just love her!!! Such a powerful voice!!!
To me it’s a god given gift, and boy does she own it. ❤
