Sutton Foster - On My Own

awakeninglea Says:

Jan 24, 2012 - Excuse me! Lea Michele has sung "Defying Gravity" (with no less than its main star Idina Menzel) and she did a GREAT job without sounding witchy! But I guess you're right somehow: Sutton will be a "natural" at this witch role because she looks and sounds like a witch.

Jan 24, 2012 - Duh! Lea Michele was good in this role! But thanks for not confusing her with this overrated performer.

Jan 24, 2012 - Stunningly squeaky...

drake50311 Says:

Jan 24, 2012 - In her case, since since can't act, she needs to use her body so that the audience is able to connect the character to the lyrics.

drake50311 Says:

Jan 24, 2012 - Yes, with her overly squeaky voice, she'll make an excellent Elphaba. What a witch, ha ha ha ha ha!

Jan 24, 2012 - @Mad4john Not sing this with an American accent??? If we were to be purists, then there shouldn't have been a British version at all and this should have remained a French production through and through!

Jan 28, 2012 - Two statements, firstly she is truly awful and secondly she is truly squeaky.

Jan 31, 2012 - @SuttonFosterSTINKS You obviously don't know anything about singing or acting, and unfortunately you must have never met Sutton. I've worked with her many times, and she happens to be one of the most kind, talented, and wonderful people I have ever met.

Jan 31, 2012 - she can't seem to handle the notes very well, which is strange because I've heard her sing before and she was fine

Vettrap Says:

Feb 4, 2012 - I don't know what it is, but I love my Eponines squeaky.

CareBearsALot Says:

Mar 20, 2012 - I don't think her acting is stiff, I just don't think you can see her face very well, and from other videos I've seen of her, a lot of her acting is in her expression. Also, I don't think she sounds that bad, my guess is that she's sick here.

Mar 25, 2012 - Problems with the singing, problems with the acting. Not one of her better performances.

SheRicoSuave Says:

Apr 2, 2012 - To me, Sutton Foster is more suitable for light-hearted roles, such as in Anything Goes.

crassify1 Says:

Apr 3, 2012 - i didn't quite catch all the squeakiness everyone's going on about, but i can't watch the video because she just stares and looks freaky and demon possessed. and then she rushed forward at 2:45 (i think it was then?) and scared the freakin crap outta me. she needs to not jolt around. and those high notes weren't the greatest. she looks so creepy!!! oh well, good for her. probably better than i could do it

crassify1 Says:

Apr 3, 2012 - oops! 2:42

msgirl2981 Says:

Apr 26, 2012 - was going on tour with les miserables her first big job before she was on broadway? if it is, give her a break.....and dont think that any of yall have 2 tony awards to ur name like she does...just saying

msgirl2981 Says:

Apr 26, 2012 - and something else that i have noticed, she was singing on her own terms instead of making it sound like the genetic way....know what i mean

Victory502 Says:

May 16, 2012 - Geez did she murder someone or something? I think she does the role well...Eponine is supposed to be crazy.

myXchemicaxlwarfareX Says:

May 20, 2012 - The company she's keeping is probably her multiple personalities...

evelinex94 Says:

May 21, 2012 - she looks like she's on xtc

johncerasi Says:

May 23, 2012 - I don't see why people hate this. It's not the best but it's no where near the worst, or even bad. She hits all the notes fine and her voice sounds great as always.She's a little bland in the role but it wasn't so bad that I was personally offended like you people. Would you rather fucking see Taylor Swift do it?!?!?!

Serena2009ification Says:

May 26, 2012 - Actually, I might.....at least Taylor Swift would put a different spin on it, whereas Sutton Foster is just plain, "Meh."

johncerasi Says:

May 26, 2012 - Yeah, she would have put a spin of absolute fucking shit. Her acting would be atrocious, especially next to real actors like Hugh Jackman, Russel Crowe, and Colm Wilkinson. And her singing would be awful too. Eponine's range far exceeds that of Taylor Swift's. If you think this performance is boring, I'm willing to put money on the idea that Taylor Swift's performance would be five times as boring.

May 28, 2012 - Y'all are crazy. Sutton did a fantastic job here.
