That's the truth! Kelli is my cousin and I was more upset by that than she or any other family members. To me, she pours herself into every beat of a song! Love you, Kelli. Be safe and joyful. Love to your sweet children, Greg and your parents. Healing prayers for Laura.

this is one of the best performances i've ever heard. Her voice is so perfect for this song, her emotion is 120% and it's the first time I hear an italian accent that is not stereotypical or overacted, but it is actually very close to what an italian accent sounds like.

One regret I will always have is that I did not get to see Kelli and Steven preform this wonderful music! I had tickets to see the play for just a week after it suddenly closed - a BIG fail for Broadway, as far as I am concerned! I have listened to the soundtrack over 100 times now and cannot get enough. So filled with emotion.

@@stalbansgirl-jg9yn Pasquale got snubbed that year which was crazy but the lineup was competitive I guess. O'Hara did have a shot at winning but the show's failure combined with The King & I announcement equalling a bookmark for Tony voters to award O'Hara the next year helped pave the way for Jesse Mueller, a talented break through actress playing a pop icon in a big hit that was not going to get a lot of love everywhere else. Menzel was also competitive considering the banner year she had had and positive response to If/Then. I think she was probably third but both her and Sutton Foster probably getting some "merit only" votes prevented Kelli from pulling off the upset.

I'll tell you a thing or two I've learned after listening to Jason Robert Brown's hard-won real-life lesson plan synopses, in related musical patterns with increasingly complex scale mods and reminiscent call-backs, tie-ins to curl your toes with crushing emotional clarity, in ascending & descending spiral ellipses, perfectly perceptible in their transcendent finality: It fits.

Since I bought the album last week, I have listened to Almost Real, Another Life, To Build a Home and Always Better on repeat. The whole score is so beautiful. My fingers are crossed for her and JRB's Tony wins. Can't wait to get the sheet music.
