I will absolutely never forget the audience's collective gasp the moment she started to sing in Clear Day, in the preview performance I saw. She is magic.

[indecisive]

Too late now to forget your smile
The way we cling when we've danced a while
Too late now to forget and go on to someone new


Too late now to forget your voice
The way one word makes my heart rejoice


Too late now to imagine myself away from you


All the things we've done together
I relive when we're apart


All the tender fun togethеr
Stays on in my heart

How could I evеr close the door
And be the same as I was before?
Darling, no, no, I can't anymore
It's too late now

[Loejyrrab]

Wonderful, almost beyond words. Her performance harkened back to the WW2 era of gorgeous ballads by Doris Day, Judy Garland, Lena Horne and Billy Holiday. I just loved every velvety note. Bravissima Jessie.

I wish I'd seen her in On a Clear Day! I had the privilege of seeing her in The Mystery of Edwin Drood and when replaced Kelli O'Hara in Nice Work If You Can Get It. She was INCREDIBLE in both roles. Hoping to see her in the new musical BEAUTIFUL!

[theBestArts]

That gorgeous performance just made my ears melt (a good thing).

[Aprilhojazz]

beautifully done. It doesn't need to be a long song to make the most long lasting impact.

[Jimat]

In case no one else has pointed this out, "Too Late Now" is from the film "Royal Wedding."

[pudgeuncle]

When is she going to be offered FUNNY GIRL?

[Figjamxlaststar]

Jeremy Jordan and her need to get a gig together!!!!

[ailisoliver-kerby]

Anyone know where I can find the sheet music for this?

[MrBillybooks]

This simply CAN NOT compare to Jane Powell's gorgeous rendition of this song from "Royal Wedding": and elsewhere.

[guydecervens]

"Wonderful"? The poor girl hasn't a note in her head.
