Damn awesome. I love that movie, one of my favourites just through brilliant editing and craftsmanship of an entertaining tale.

This song is a great song, she does a great version... love it.

Really impressive. I didn't think that piece was possible to be sung by a human...that's sort of what the director was going for in the movie. She's a bit off in parts, especially with her range, but that's only because the movie version was electronically manipulated.

I miss being in an Art School. All around you, you were constantly surrounded by extremely talented people: opera singers, actors, visual artists, dancers, filmmakers and production designers. There was always a show going on or something entertaining.

One of my favorite things to do was to go see a music student's review, which was a solo concert they'd put on with music they've arranged. They would come dressed up, nervous and always ready to play their best. Typically it was done in a large recital hall with very few people, so it was always intimate. This video reminds me of some of the talented opera singers I saw in their reviews, and it's making me nostalgic.

Was loving her facial expressions! Also got the impression she was reading an autocue...

She was singing on top of the existing vocal track, right? She didn't have a clean track to sing on top of? I think that hides some of the differences. If I'm wrong then this is even more impressive.

^ Yeah, I would love to hear her voice without the recorded voice under it. The only part of that amazing movie that I didn't like was the obvious digital manipulation of the diva's singing voice, and that goofy little dance she did.

They totally should have got her to do the movie and scrapped the autotuning.

I hated that there was supposed to be this amzing diva, with a voice unlike any other, but all they wrote for her to sing was basically a vocal warm-up set to a backing track that sounds like a 80's era Madonna B-side. Difficult to sing, yes, but hardly the kind of music that a diva would perform in public. Broke the movie for a bit.

Did I understand correctly: The reason she didn't do the first part was that it'd take too long to learn it properly? Doesn't that suggest that what she just did wasn't even that hard in her opinion? You can definately hear the differences, but imagine if she seriously worked on this.

Oh, and upvote for talent and quality.

Is it wrong to get a boner watching this? If so, I don't want to be right...

Srsly though, one of my favourite pieces of music ever and to see it done without computer modulation (and with the wonderful expressions she makes ; ) is fantastic.

Actually... from all I can find online, the version in the film IS NOT manipulated. I thought it was, but apparently the special edition dvd has a portion that states that all that has been done to it is some overdub of flute at one point, other than that, it's all real singing.

Colour me impressed as I was sure it was manipulated.

I'll be impressed when she can sing a chorus by herself the way the original did.

You have to make some UG. LY. faces to hit those kind of notes.

Unless you meant over-plucking them, that I can't explain.

All she needs now is some blue body paint, funky braids, and to learn some cool dance moves.

From IMDB trivia, 8th from the bottom:
When composer Eric Serra showed soprano 'Inva Mulla Tchako' (who dubs the voice of the Diva) the sheet music for the Diva Dance, she reportedly smiled and relayed to him that some of the notes written were not humanly possible to achieve because the human voice cannot change notes that fast. Hence, she performed the notes in isolation - one by one, as opposed to consecutively singing them all together and they digitized the notes to fit the music. There are a few moments when you can hear the differences in the vocal tones of The Diva's voice.

So basically they sampled her voice and then built the song in a sequencer; at least parts of it, anyway.
