Sho was BORN to sing. There aren’t enough positive words to describe her stellar vocal abilities. It’s just beyond categorization at this point.

Shoshana is the only singer that can actually snatch my wig in 8 different octaves 😂

She be sanging not singing 😬😂👏🏾

She just owns this entire song and creates a fully vivid picture. It's like you can SEE every scene she sings to. It's incredibly good.

I saw Shoshana in waitress back in April. Whenever I hear her sing this song I legit fall into a puddle of tears. When I saw the show, we were locked on to her face seeing the emotions watching her cry and sing with her whole heart. I was in tears. I love Shoshana so much

Shoshana sang “make it rain” live in this beautiful hotel. I suggest watching the video cause It’s an experience and she takes the breath out of you.

This is probably my fave version of this song!

She wasn't singing or acting, she was confessing her soul in the rawest and most honest manner that is humanly possible. By opening up her soul to us it gave us, the audience, permission to also venture into the emotional complexity of our own experiences. This shared connection makes this song, and her performance, that much more impactful and richer.

She is the ultimate vocal actress in contemporary musical theater. If you haven't seen her version of "Stars and the Moon" from "Songs for a New World" it's absolutely incredible. There is not a single beat that passes that doesn't have intention, whether sung or silent. The best.

Sara wrote such a beautiful song and it allows all who have sung to put their personality on it. This song lead to Sara writing the entire score for Waitress and a Tony nomination. This young lady had me memorized from her first note. Beautiful.

And that's the genius of Shoshana Bean. The musicality is absolute. Your comment about focus is absolutely spot on. The emotional connection is astonishing.

Please do shoshana singing “make it rain” !!!!!! One of my favorites of all time

This is my first time ever hearing about Shoshana and also hearing her sing. I am so astounded by her marvellous talent and soul touching singing. RIP Shoshana songs😂

Watch Alison Luff's Incredible Rendition of "She Used to Be Mine"

I adore Shoshana. I've been dying for you to react to this! She does an amazing No Good Deed

Shoshana’s “toughen up” is always my FAVE. This woman is EVERYTHING!

Now we need to insist over and over, over and over to react to Make it Rain and Somerhing Bad Cover

Shoshana is so amazing at telling a story through her singing. This was such a good reaction!! Cant wait to see you reacting more to her ❤

She's perfect, the way that she put her emotions into any song that she sings is crazy, please react to another performance of her where she sings "Make It Rain" its mind blowing

FINALLY!!! it was worth the wait just for the moment when the spirit hit ya, and you were like, “YOU BETTA SING!” do. not. sleep. on miss shoshana bean... she is a beast. whenever you’re ready, check out her “dressing room session” rendition of whitney’s “saving all my love for you” with former the voice contestant, avery wilson... you’ll have a, “Y’ALL BETTA SING” moment!

That made me emotional. We all have a moment when ‘she used to be mine’!

You MUST react to Nicole Scherzinger “Don’t Cry for me Argentina”!!!!! And she performed it in front of Andrew Lloyd Webber. You won’t be disappointed

Okay, so now we have to request Memory from Keri Rene Fuller!

I love how we can see how professional and in control and confident you are, yet you're not cold at all to the depth and feeling of these performances and performers. I think you'd like Keri Rene Fuller doing one of my least favorite songs, Memory... which has become one of my favorite performances... on the same YT channel.

That was the perfect assessment of how I feel listening to Shoshana Bean....Voice is captivating

This genius writing of Sara Bareilles will never cease to amaze me.

When I saw you had reacted to this song I couldn't click the button fast enough. This is indeed a master class on acting a song not just singing it, and I watch it a couple of times a week. She shows we mere mortals how its done. She commits everything to her performance, if you look close she has tears in her eyes. There should be a tutorial on how to sound great singing while actually crying.

Her Make it Rain is crazy good if you pleasw could react to Make It Rain by Shoshana Bean at the Ace Hotel

I promise you that if you listen to her cover of “make it rain”, you won’t be disappointed!!

Why am I crying? This is so beautiful! Im so locked in this performance!

Congrats on the engagement! I'm sure you'll provide the music! Maybe one of your students? Ha ha.

Her take on "Stone cold" on the Postmodern Jukebox channel is my favorite version of this song. Loved the emotion she gave. And (for me), the theatrical setup for the video made it even better by adding to the "don't worry, you don't need to care about me" theme and vibe of the song.. Hmm so good!

Alison Luff does an INCREDIBLE version of this song as well!!! I would LOVE for you to review it!! It would be so neat to see you compare the two songs and the stylistically different choices made on one song by two broadway singers!!

PLEASE react to Keri Renee Fuller’s “Memory”, it’s insane.

Yooo she is phenomenal I’m crying

Shoshana Bean..just amazing!❤️ the Best on Broadway!!

Yes! Thank you for saying that it's so important to use your real life emotions and experiences to make a song. Music is therapy, but only if you ARE the person you write and sing about. The melody releases you somehow.

Thanks for this, been waiting sooo long 😊😊 and congratulations on engagement!

Crying from the beauty and commitment that Shoshana just blessed me with... that! Is how you connect to a song ❤️

she's incredible.. what a rich, stunning voice... and thank you, Tara, for the perfect review of her talents... I am now obsessed.

YAY FINALLY! And I’m glad it’s your favorite version now too! Definitely recommend you watch her performance of No Good Deed live on tv. It’s old but it showcases her amazing talent AND all while being very very sick.

Girllll, I saw her in waitress on broadway on her second to last performance. When i tell you she had the audience Bawling!

Pls react to her singing "Make it Rain" at the Ace Hotel

Amazing. Shoshana's so incredible. She IS the character. Every character she does.

Yesssss Shoshana has been on my radar since I saw her in Elphaba compilation videos. She's sublime and we STAN. Thanks for reacting Tara, love it❤❤❤❤

My top 3 versions Allison Luff - gave it a feel of innocence and melancholy; technically flawless imho and her melodic lines are so clear Jessie Mueller - just heartbreaking.. you can feel brokenness in her voice; technically very surprising it’s like when you hear her you’ll think ‘oh she won’t be able to finish this so grand, her voice is so tiny, but then oh lord, she rocks it at the end Soshana Bean - she tells a story and then in the middle it gets fierce and angry but she doesn’t let go of the story; technically the most stylistic but she has the strongest most unwavering vocals - and made you think of Elphaba at times especially when she pointed her fingers :)

Your intro today! 🙌🙌🙌 SO GOOD!!!! Also I’m OBSESSED with Shoshana Bean!!!

One of the most beautiful voice on this planet!

Ugh yes! Thank you for reviewing! This is by far my favorite performance of this song. Her emotion is so tangible, I love it.

Tara, Emotional commitment and focus on the song. I love all your nuggets of wisdom. Thank you. 🙏🙏🙏

I've seen this dozens of times and it still leaves me sobbing 😢

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR LISTENING TO OUR REQUEST. YOUR REACTION MADE MY DAY, TARA. LOTS OF LOVE.

Yay! So happy you finally reacted to her. Shoshana is, as you said, absolutely masterful. Her Stars and the Moon is also amazing.

this has cleared my skin and soul O MY BROADWAY GOODNESS!

Thanks for reacting to Shoshanna.... she is also a world class jazz singer as a previous comment mentioned. Make It Rain was recorded live at the Ace hotel in Los Angelis and is one of the most brilliant performances I have ever heard.She has also done duets with Cynthia Orevo and Amber Riley.Please when there is time react again to this incredible woman.

I loved this performance the best, she wasn't just singing the song she was acting the song.

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR ENGAGEMENT HONEY-PIE ❗️❗️❗️❗️ 💞💞🎉🎉

Shoshana has been a massive inspiration of mine. She is astoundingly talented and such an incredible person in real life. So glad you checked out her version of this. One of the best imo

Now I’m mad I didn’t prepare myself for this, got me fightin back tears

Omg! Thank you thank you thank you! I love an artist that can bring you to tears! What a beautiful performance. I just played this for my three teenage daughters. Two of whom want to get into musical theater. They are absolutely in love right now.

Oh wow! This literally brought me to tears. That’s some powerful artistry right there!

more shoshana bean yay!! i would LOVE for you to react to shoshana's version of Ain't No Way, it's one of my favourites from her

Wooooooooow! How amazing was that?! And something I always say is that if you truly are in your character often your technique is where you want it to be. This singer demonstrated that perfectly 😍👍🏻

The very first time I saw Waitress, Shoshanna was playing Jenna and I was just blown away. I had never seen her live before only in videos when she was in Wicked and I loved her in that too. But, woo she sang the heck out of all the songs in Waitress. I saw Alison Luff the second time and she was phenomenal and the last time I saw it Sara Bareilles played Jenna and well *falls to knees* I'm not worthy... Haha of COURSE she was freaking amazing! I love how each performer who plays Jenna brings something of their own to the character and makes you love Jenna even more. All of those lovely ladies are so beyond talented❤

Shoshana's emotional commitment, AS WELL AS her facial expressions were beautifully done. She didn't need to even ACT with her body; her face wore every single aspect of her emotion. Her voice expressed that emotion beautifully without even looking at the video, but when just watching ONLY HER FACE, she just sells it like she is wearing her heart on her sleeve. Hands down the best performance without even needing to see other performances! @MissTara, your reaction to this video made this even better! You were at a loss for words! It made me smile even more, since you are rarely at a loss for words (I say endearingly)! You were so immersed in the beauty of her performance. That was very entertaining watching you speechless for a change! Xoxo, just another appreciative Tarabyte.

This rendition brings me to tears

Thank you for your reaction. I love what you have to say and you are such a positive person. Thank you! Can’t wait to watch more of your content. ❤️😄

Tara, your technical commentary educates me every time good or bad! Bravo!!

PLEEEEEEEEEEASE REACT TO HER AND CYNTHIA ERIVO SINGING I DID SOMETHING BAD

I have seen so many artists sing this song, and she is by far the most committed and connected and vulnerable. Just brilliant!

I’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! You need to react to Shoshana more

Hahaha... I simply adored this reaction!!! I think your reaction was just as perfect as the song and Shoshana's delivery!!!! I needed a little brevity after that very gorgeous but heavy song.. and your light hearted but genuine reaction.. just tickled me!!! Great content as always Tara! :)))

Keri Renee Fuller’s ‘Memory’ !! you will GAG for more

I would love to see you react to her acting and varied styles of singing in her Broadway Bucketlist!

Can I just say, thank you so much for being one of the few KZfaqrs out there who appreciates and reacts to Broadway divas not just because the video has so many views or they’re popular, but because they are worth watching.❤️❤️

Love this version ❤

This performance, the rawness of it, really reminds me of her performance of “No Good Deed”.

It was even more incredible live and in performance! Thanks for enjoying it!

Love that you finally did this!! Love you Tara! Fellow Atlantan!! You should do her cover of “I Wanna Dance w/Somebody”! Much ❤️

Been waiting for thisss ❤ Sho is one of my favorite Jennas in the show

Yes!!! I been waiting on you to react to this!!!!

I've been watching videos of this song ALL WEEK! HOW did you know?!?! Shoshana rocked it, but Alison Luff takes the cake on this one. Thank youuu for making this video!

I’ve discovered so many amazing singers thanks to your videos ❤️❤️

I'm just discovering Shoshana. First time ever laying eyes on her or listening to her. I listened to MacPfee, then Jordon, and then Shoshana, BUT Shoshana blew them all out the water! I did'nt know what I had been missing! Bravo!!! Simply beautiful.

Best rendition ever 🥺👏👏👏👏

This reaction gem went over 100.000 views, now you GOTTA do more Shoshana! Her version of Finishing the Hat is an absolute must :) PS. happy International Women's Day, power to ya!

OMG, Thistle song killed me😭. With that said " what a beautiful voice!". Thanks for sharing Tara💞

Thank You for expressing the words for me Miss Tara Simon!! We were eye to eye. You are good too ..

Hey Tara, I'm one of the relentless requesters :) I'm glad you see why we wanted to share this with you - we knew you'd appreciate it. Happy holidays to you and yours ❤️

I’d love if you reacted to Shoshana’s Broadway Bucket List with a focus on acting through song! It’s 3 different roles/songs and it’s a true Masterclass.

Clearly, she didn't just sing that song, she performed the song and the moment, as you said. Breathtaking delivery.

First time this song made me cry

That trill on "lonely" breaks my heart every single time

Okay, Tara, now let’s MAKE IT RAIN with Sho 😏 Also it’s my first ever comment on KZfaq. Just to understand how awesome Shoshana is. And you’re doing a very good job !)

So good.. best I’ve heard for this song🙏🏽

Subscribing! You finally did Shoshana. She is a masterclass, consistently.

SHOSHANA is perfection! I LOVE wanting Ching you react to this astounding talent!

She used to be mine is top five favorite songs all time for me. This song has all kinds of meaning for me. This made me cry and made me remember why this song is so special to me SHOSHANNA just sang 💓 💖 💗 💕 the best version of this song I have ever heard. Thank you.

Shoshana could sing the phone book for all I care. She is amazing!
