Pure Awesomeness. I am so insanely proud to call you my wife. Lucky to have found someone who inspires me. :)
We will be uploading music as long as I have the ability to record and sing!
I can't stop listening to this!!! :)
Your piano player has some soul (that intro was nice)

The Seven Angels peter and Envynne make that song sound wonderful
What a nice comment! There WILL be plenty more to come! Can't wait to share more with you all! Thanks for the wonderful comments!
Evynne and Peter Hollens are world class. Evynne, please do 'Into The West", Annie Lennox is immortal in this song but I would love to hear a softer version with your voice. Please...
This baby is going to be singing ballads by the time it's walking
I love your voice, but I have to say Nathan Alef stole the show. I didn't realize so much heart could be put into playing a song. His skills are by far superior to any I've seen before!
Beautiful version of this great song. Lovely voice. Peter married well! Lol
One of my old Drama classmates, Kianna (who, unfortunately got killed by a drunk driver the night she was to go to Prom) did an absolutely beautiful performance with this song. Not undermining your performance at all, just remembering a cool girl.

Megan Tholen sadly I don't, I didn't think to do so. We did have a Play type of thing, but I don't know who taped it. She did have a beautiful voice, though. Not the greatest, mind you, but it was more mature than you'd think.

Evynne, your voice is amazing as always. I give ultimate props to +Nathan Alef though. Piano players, especially accompanists are often overlooked and under appreciated. Nathan I must say you absolutely and utterly KILLED IT! Incredible job!
Green Eye Shadows... VERY fitting! :)
What a challenging and beautiful arrangement of this song!! And you do it so effortlessly and clearly!! Thank you for doing this one! xoxo Much love from Salt Lake City, Utah!
Beautiful!! Love this arrangement!
The high note at the end was just 🤑
I was mesmerized. Thank you!

7 years and I'm so glad to follow you and Peter. It will be great a new collab with the piano guys again.
Thanks so much for the nice comment! So glad you enjoyed!
I love how you both took the music and tweaked it. It fits, and I think it's absolutely amazing. I've always been a fan of the show, and this has just added to it. You're both so incredibly talented! Thank you for sharing those talents with us. :)

I think the same.
Beautiful. The piano player is incredible as well.
Good lord, you are amazing! I love how your voice just swells from soft and gentle to a powerful vocal magic that brings tears to my eyes! I listen to a lot of yours and Peter's videos here on KZread, and I agree with people who suggest songs like "I See The Light" from Tangled, because that would be beautiful, but I'm going to say this as well - I think you and Peter would do an amazing version of "It's All Coming Back To Me Now" (the duet version with MeatLoaf and Marion Raven). You both have such amazing and powerful voices, together you would make that song incredible!
I liked it as soon as I saw the title
Chills, man, chills. That was amazing!
You know Ashland is going to love seeing all the videos of the two of you...What a beautiful Voice his mother has.
this was literally so beautiful! i got the chills and started crying like omg, loved the arrangment so amazing :'D
Evynne, this song is gorgeous, you are gorgeous, and thank you so much for introducing me to Nathan :D
My favourite song in the whole world
OMG!! I would like this a thousand times if I could! This is insanely good! My heart is racing! This music is beautiful, your voice is so sweet and beautiful! I love Wicked!! So many emotions at the same time!!! I loved it!!! I suggest that you do only musical theater songs on your channel, that would be double awesome! I love you Evynne!! Such a good first impression of your first solo on your channel! And please sing For Good and Popular! And the guy playing it was awesome too! Yaaay!
I still listen to this all the time, just perfect
Damn this is a powerful cover.... Idina Menzel would be proud!

You realize that she is not a professional singer? The only reason she sings is because her husband sings I mean she has and ok voice but it's such a normal voice that there's nothing inspiring about it.

themiddleone You realize she was the founder of the ladies' acapella group at the University of Oregon, right? Her voice is so much better than most of the "professional" singers that are out there right now. Like Beyonce, Miley Cyrus, and Ke$ha who use autotune and crap music. Ev's voice is natural, beautiful, and well trained. And I'm sorry, but you're not a "professional" critic, so your opinion means nothing.
LOVE LOVE LOVE!!! The arangement with just the piano is awesome and Love your green eye shadow Evyenne!~
You're voice is so angelic, I can't even. I've never heard such clarity and beauty in a voice! (: And Nathan's piano skills are beyond amazing; you're both blessed with a wonderful talent!
This has got to be one of the most underrated videos on all of KZread.
To be truthfully honest, I really don't like the arrangement played on the piano at first, :/ But dear god, that voice. It's purely angelic! *Sits at computer drooling in envy* I wish I had that voice. So amazing, I'll be sure to share this with everyone I know :D
Are you human? because your singing is pretty much flawless

this piano arrangement, this voice... just perfection
Your performance raised my spirits with the joy and wholesomeness you convey. Thanks so much!
I love love love your voice! Incredible arrangement and that pianist is sick as hell! My only complaint as a theater purist is that this is not supposed to be a feel good song. This is a turning point in Elphabas life. She has just been betrayed by the one person that she idolized. Essentially she is saying screw you to the wizard and the world that she knows. This is a song of courage and, as I said, I freaking love your voice and your arrangement, but I wish there was more angst and frustration in the interpretation. Amazing job nonetheless, and holy moly! Way to hit that last note!
Wow, thanks so much! We do feel blessed to be able to do music together! There WILL be duets in the future for sure!
This is still one of my favourite covers on the Internet! ***** smooth and mesmerising ability on keys and ***** beautiful, yet powerful, vocals make this an amazing experience! Will always enjoy this....
I never seem to get tired of listening to this song, I love it so much!
Love your reaction at 2:58 Nathan :D

I'm a manager at a pizza place in iowa, and while closing one night, i turned this song on super loud and jumped on one of our counters and belted this song out; can't get enough of this song! such a gorgeous voice, keep making videos for me to belt out!! :)
I've been waiting so long for this ,most of my fave songs that Peter sings is with you ,please never stop singing ,you are amazing
Missing the sense you're "defying" gravity with this pretty rendition, but I enjoyed it all the same especially near the end when it started to shine through. Much better and smoother than a lot of other ladies who have played it on the stage (no one can beat Idina though!).
I loved this song and was wondering if you could do "Let It Go" from Disney's Frozen? It despite the movies more comical appearance is an amazing song.
That was absolutely beautiful! I have followed Peter's channel for over a year now, and I love all the songs you guys have done together. I have been following you for a few months (since just before your pregnancy), and I can't believe it has taken me this long to go back and watch all your videos, but I am loving it. I can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon!
Great singing as always. You have really done this song justice. More blessings to come and stay talented
This is my absolute worst pet hate, trying to jazz up a song instead of playing it straight. But the singing was amazing, and I know it takes talent to play a song like that, so while I can't say I like it, this is a pretty good version of this song.

Derrick Sly I didn't particularly like that version of it either for the same reason. The singer does not own the song, the writer does. So even though it was Idina Menzel, it does not mean I like the song being messed around with. It has nothing to do with the singing and in both versions the singer is amazing. I just really don't like rearrangements.

Could you do "For Good" from Wicked? :)
i love this! your voice is gentle yet rich. and your pianist did a great job as well! very jazzy chords yet it still has aspects of the original song. great cover!
Beautiful! Thank you for sharing your gifts with us. Love the piano as well!
That was awesome!! Any chance you'll do "Let it Go" from Frozen?

My all time favorite song. My ALL-TIME FAVORITE SONG. And you NAILED it. This makes me so happy. Thank you, Evynne, for being wonderful at what you do.
This is one of the most beautiful things I've ever heard in my life! Your voice is flawless :)
Please do No Good Deed!!!
I...actually don't care for the piano in this one. Gorgeous gorgeous voice, but the piano feels like it's moving at a different tempo for most of the song and makes everything feel...discordant and not in a good way. Makes it hard to listen to;;
You have no idea how excited I was when I saw you came out with this video! It is outstanding!!! Love it! Can't wait for another one!
This video gave me chills. It's just too good.
Wow, I LOVE this arrangement! The jazzy feel with the accompaniment is so cool!
Lovely. This is my favorite rendition of this song that I've heard.
I have been obsessed with your version of this song! I love it! I watch it almost everyday :)
One of the hardest songs to sing, ever! Well done. Had to listen about 10 times.
Loving the jazzy vibe! A cool take to an amazing song. Great job to both you and Nathan!
Once again you slow down the really amazing meaningful songs to allow them to completely seep into one's soul! Thank you!
Absolutely Broadway quality. How you guys are not household names by now absolutely baffles me. Keep doing what you are doing its simply amazing!
Both of you really shone in this performance! Gorgeous voice and such soulful playing! Love it so much!
this is my favorite version of this song. I love you and your family. you both help me through my day. thank you!!!!
Absolutely wonderful. Nathan is amazing!!! You guys are great together.
One of my favourite songs performed by two beautifully talented people! I love Evynne's voice and Nathan is phenomenal as always ♡♡
Major chills!! I love the arrangement you guys did of this song! You're both incredibly talented!! Beautiful!!
Wow, this actually gave me chills and brought tears to my eyes. A beautiful version of a timeless song.
This is amazing. I don't even have words to do adequate justice... just wow. I love it.
Oh my...I love this. I absolutely love that you took a song that I can't lie is already one of my favorites of all time and made it your own. Mark of an amazing talent I say. Love love love.
Evynne this was absolutely beautiful! First cover of this song to give me goosebumps all down my body, and bring tears to my eyes! The sheer talent and gorgeous tone of your voice is truly fantastic. You're amazing.
Great arrangement. One of the top versions of this song I have ever listened to. Keep up the awesome job.
Fantastic cover! Gave me chills the entire time.
Beautiful! You have such a clear and strong voice. A perfect combination with the piano. The Hollens family is truly musically blessed.
Outstanding performance. Piano and voice blended perfectly. The bar has been set high with this one.
Evynne.....Wicked is my FAVORITE!!!!! I've seen it 7 times. This is absolutely amazing. It's almost not fair to have a couple with such incredible talent.
I love the quality of your voice! It's fun to listen to you sing!
this is great. I love how you both maintained the integrity of the original while still making it your own.
amazing!! I can't even count how many times I've listened to this cover, you've earned yourself a New subscriber, keep it up you have an amazing voice!
Simply stunning. I am SO happy that you have decided to make your own account. You and Peter are amazing.
Love this sooooooooo much!!!! Your voice is so perfect Evynne!!!!
That voice! Goosebumps!
I absolutely love this arrangement that you have done. It's so refreshing to hear something new because there are so many people out there doing it the same old way. You have an amazing voice and the piano was fantastic.
Love love love your voice Evynne
