Many people doesn't realize but Lea Salonga gave an opportunity to our country for Filipinos to be discovered more. she was an epitome of what pure Filipino talent is. and I don't understand why people criticize her a lot by "Broadway" lang yan. but then people doesn't realize how hard it is to be Asian, or being another race to be a part of Broadway. it internalizes discipline and great talent. and somewhat people doesn't realize that this woman brought pride to our country and one of the reasons why the Philippines is famous for having people that have great talent. it just boils my blood that other Filipinos doesn't appreciate her, but in other countries she is a goddess. I just hope younger kids would recognize her, and cherish her as a national treasure.

Flawless pitch. Crystal notes. Lea style. World class.

This is the kind of music that doesnt hurts your eardrum :)

she's not your typical biritera! she's one of the most famous and successful broadway singer

Her version is so beautiful. You can hear "broadway" especially on high notes. It's very Lea Salonga, it's so good to the ears.

Whitney is my girl, but this woman is AWESOME too! I found this after listening to her rendition of Via Dolorosa. She has a beautiful voice! I am a FAN!

Whenever Lea Salonga sings another artist's song, she makes it her own and it's so mesmerizing. She made it sounds like this song was never sung before.

I love the way she performs other singer's songs. She won't imitate, but keeps her own style while making it interesting and rich. Especially I really love Whitney Houston's songs, but I don't find Lea's version simply an imitation. Marvellous!

The only singer that doesn't need to reach high notes in order to impress audience. Everytime she sings, i feel like Im in heaven

By far the clearest version ive heard... The best!!

world class singer, authentic, clear, flawless!

Its November 2019 and I am here. Who's here too? I love you, Lea!!! 😭😍

Amazing! I love her voice, the way she sings with passion and her clear diction. Many singers out there have good voice but they cannot sing as clear as Leah Salonga- listeners will understand every word/ lyrics of each song that Lea sings.

Lea’s brother (Gerard) is conducting... how proud their mom must be 😀

Her voice melts me , the tone is magical

one of the greatest singer in the Philippines, of all time!

Salonga's rendition of Houston's "Run To You" and Dolly Parton's "I Will Always Love You" is simply amazing!

Lea Salonga is incomparable!!! She has her own style and has different genre in terms of her music..linis nyang.kumanta walang.kupas at sarap pkinggan di msakit sa tenga.

As much as Whitney is "Whitney", Lea also slayed these amazing songs and is "Lea"!!!!

Lea's transition from chest to head voice and back - it's just flawless.

the best. i love whitney houston so much but i can't deny it leah salonga is superb. 2 thumbs up.

Lea Salonga is truly a messenger who clearly communicates the message, the emotion and the meaning behind every song she sings.

It's 2019, but she sounds supreme still! 👏👏👏

How can you sing songs with high pitches without exerting effort?? So clean!

The vocal control, the emotion, the breath capacity, the storytelling, the clarity, the depth and range. Wow!

Sarap pakinggan sa tamang lakas lang ng volume. My favorite singer, ever.

Every time I hear miss Lea voice makes my feelings so emotional and I don't want the song stop...you're one of the most beautiful voice in Philippines...

a real singer is defined by how she/he makes his/her own mark in every song he/she sings. kudos to lea for doing her own rendition of these songs. those singers who just try to make it sound like the original don't really do as well as those who tried to establish their own sound/trademark/s.

Lea Salonga is probably one of the best - if not the best - singer out there.

What I always love about lea is the effortless singing and emotion.

It’s like I’m listening to a Disney version of Run to You 😊

Lea Salonga has that unique way of belting any song without necessarily shouting out the high notes. She has that impeccable way of expressing every word so distincly, For me, she is an epic ! The only Filipina singer with those trademarks !

I really love your voice Ms. LEA SALONGA.... Your talent is exceptional...

i like the way she sings confidently and indeed enjoyed her own performance by her own style rather than tried to show off by singing useless high notes just to impress the audience

Oh my gosh! She has angelic and crystal voice that makes her unique

R.I.P Whitney Houston. Lea brought me to tears. It's a sad shame that Whitney is gone from this world and is now in Heaven. She is awesome at singing this song of Whitney''s Whitney would be so proud of Lea Salonga for singing her song.

Dolly would too be proud of Lea for singing Whitney's song that Dolly originally wrote. R.I.P. Whitney.

Clarity is part of her training as a broadway singer so that someone in the back row can understand her.

Walang pinasikat??? Eh,isa nga si LEAH sa nagpapasikat ng bansang PILIPINAS na makasama at maki-kompetinxa sa hollywood singer eh... Proud of you LEAH... Ang galing mo...

When I was a child she was my favorite, and that time she was also a child like me in her "I am but a small voice", only her and Michael Jackson's "Ben" I can remembered my childhood favorites...

feels like I'm in heaven.

nice renditon.. i like it very much. lahat ng word ng song maiintindihan mo.. ganyan ang tamang pag kanta.hindi puro sigaw wala n sa tamang diction ng lyrics kung sumigaw.

I will always love you too, Lea!

whew! she brings me to the other part of the world when she sings! loved it! amazing, rendition.:-)

her own version :D she's really amazing!!!

She’s the only one singer that I know That you can’t hear taking a breath or breathe during singing. Her lung has a huge capacity 😲

This is why Lea is very much adored in musicworld. Her voice comes out so natural, very soothing

Nakakarelax ang boses nya..ang sarap pakinggan at hindi maingay.

It's 2016 yet I'm still watching this!

Look at her facial expression @ 1:18 and listen on how she uttered the line "tell me" with her expressive eyes @ 1:23... Great interpreter, love you Lea! :)

whoa she's just so amaziiiing!!! Sobrang linaw kumanta 💞💞

Oh my god, the clarity of her voice is so amazing.

I love you lea salonga....what a great voice

OMG SO BEAUTIFUL!

Clean and clear voice like a crystal!!! Di naman natin nasusukat ang galling ng isang mangaawit sa pagbirit lang.Clarity, emotions, connections at madami pang iba. We don't need to compare kasi singers excel in their own ways. Kaya natin sila nagugustuhan because they have something in them that others don't. To each his own. Iba- iba tau ng preferences and opinions. Kaya lets respect our singers and each other.od bless everyone.

Beautiful, flawless, timeless!! Is Lea Salonga!💜

Lea salonga the best female singer in the philipppins for me...

LEA SALONGA SINGS....WHITNEY HOUSTON´S RUN TO YOU _ I WILL ALWAYS LOVE YOU. LEA SALONGA:.....MISS SAIGON.

Great renditions, very Lea Salonga!

She sang it a la Broadway. Why do some people always feel the need to compare.

wonderful

An artist is not better than the other because every artist is unique..How come some people just comment so ill-mannered?

undoubtedly a music genius. :)

I love you Lea!!!your voice like an angle!!!!

January 2021, still here to listen to her golden crystal clear voice. Lea Salonga is such an amazing and great singer in the world. I love her so much.

kung kantahan rin lang naman ang paguusapan. si Lea Salonga lang ang may pinakamalaking karangalang ibinigay sa mga pilipino dahil sa mga naabot niya. ang daming nagmamarunong dito akala mo porket nakayanang abutin ang matataas na tono o bumirit ay magaling na. ang madalas na nakikinabang sa isang kanta ay ang tenga kasunod ay ang puso't damdamin. tandaan nyo yan. so kahit na birit to the max ka pa at abot mo lahat ng high notes kung hindi naman maganda pakinggan walang kwenta pa rin yon. sa kabilang dako kung ang kanta ay kinuha sa mas mababang notes pero nabigyan ng buhay ang ibig sabihin ng kanta, maganda sa pandinig ng tenga at nramdaman ng nakikinig iyon ang sinasabing nabibigyan ng justice ang isang kanta. marami ang nagcocoment dito na hindi naiiintindihan ang tamang pagkanta at akala mo wagas makapnghusga wala namang alam.

Jasmine, Mulang, miss Saigon. Lea Salonga=Legeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeend!!

What a powerful voice! Love it!

Perfect for the ears! Awesome!

Lea is the best. I love her songs. Please oh please Lea don't end up like Whitney. Would love to see u on broadway. Yes Dolly Parton is the owner of I will always love you. Lea sang it absolutely beautiful though. Does lea have her own recordings, I would love to buy it.

masyado lang kasi tayong nasanay sa puro sigawan or tilian sa paraan ng pagkanta, mahusay at maganda naman ang pagkakakanta niya e. mahirap talalang i please ang mga pinoy.
