That last note: straight tone belt (essentially a yell) until she releases into that beautiful vibrato... flawless! I've listened to it a hundred times!

Abraham, I have listened to this many many times and am amazed each timeas though it was the first! Such power and control! Belt on girl and blow the roof off the auditorium!!

This is terrifying. The performance is so offputting, the power and conviction in her voice with that mad look in her eyes. Nothing compares to Patti LuPone.

If is possible for someone to have a voice that matches their personal looks, she has it.

Seeing Liza Minnelli looking around and the end like “DID YOU SEE THAT?!?” Makes me so happy lol

I had known this song for years without knowing anything about the show, and thought it was an inspirational, upbeat number. Then I saw the musical, and realized it’s terrifying. What genius.

@@barbraseville8984 I thought that same thing for “as long as he needs me” from Oliver. I sing this song at karaoke, to all my friends. “You’re so great! Great things are coming!” I hope they never see this version. 🤣

She blew it out of the water. I love the contrast of her turmoil as she rips up the letter while singing, "bright lights and lollipops."

In my opinion, she is the best Rose of all the others!I watch this performance all of the time. This is perfection...the voice, the acting and the casting. Patti Lupone was Rose!

No, she's better. Bernadette is a great star but she's too sexy for Rose. Staunton is a great actress but the score dominates her as she doesn't have the chops. Patti kills it musically and has the grit to play an ordinary mother. She's perfect casting really. Shout out to Tyne Daly who comes a close second.

That last note though...that WHOLE PERFORMANCE though. Wow, I don't believe any other person who has played this role can tough Patti's performance. She IS Mama Rose, and gives her a welcome psychotic edge. Just brilliant

HOLY SHIT I'm speechless she's perfect

For those of of you who are trying to make it in this biz and looking for an example of an artist, Patti Lupone is it. Not only is she extremely talented singer but her acting is bar none. The detail and attention in every intention/objective in this performance is amazing!

Born to play Mama Rose... perfection! I saw her sing this at City Center before moving to Broadway and I knew she would win the Tony... if moved to Broadway. So happy she won. She should have won for Anything Goes as well... imo...

i am giving her a standing ovation.... while i am alone in my bedroom.

Call me crazy, but my fav acting part of this number is the terrified looks from Laura Benanti. Just the sheer terror of Mama June coming unhinged. Gives me chills.

You’re right on the money! Patti is a star, but what’s easily overlooked is how much of an ensemble player she is. She’s made better by Boyd and Laura, which is why she insisted they be part of this. They’re such good actors and bring out the star in her.

@scottgessford7878

To add to that point of view, when the audience stands up and claps, you can hear here insisting her fellow players bow with her. That’s generous and sharing, not diva behavior.

Rose... but the sentiment is there

I can’t stand Patti Lupone most of the time, but this is one of the greatest performances EVER! I can’t listen to anyone else sing it now. She was made to sing this!

what. a. star. she's more than a star. she is truly legendary.

When you witness Patti's amazing performance and you hear the continuous roar of the crowd and you see the standing ovatio given to her by the theatre community, you know you've got yourself a legend.

Why is she so perfect

I've seen Tyne Daly, Bernadette Peters and Patti Lupone do this role on Broadway. Patti wins hands down!

This performance gave me goose bumps and I cannot stop watching it! A true performer.

I loved it. And I LOVED her acceptance speech! She's such a diva, but she totally earns it. I was priviledged enough to see the show in the front row and her performance is incredible. One of the greatest Rose's ever.

Got to see Patti LuPone 3 times as Rose. What an experience. Her voice is truly remarkable. Much as I liked Tyne Daly, who was very good, LuPone killed it.

Wow. A Masterclass in bringing great acting into perfect singing, thus delivering a perfect brilliant performance for the ages. Just brilliant from start to finish.

This woman is incredible.

!!!!!! I love the use of images that she employs in her acting, her beautiful vibrato and stunning tone match her acting chops. The reason her performance is so fabulous is because it's equal in singing AND acting, not one or the other being superior. A beautiful performance!!!

Patti lupone is the woman of my life

Probably the best performance and revival I've ever seen. I had to see it twice. It closed way too soon.

Two words: Standing Ovation.

That last note was just.....awesomely glorious! She is my favorite Momma Rose.

I've lost count of how many times I've played this clip. I LOVE it!

she is so fucking talented omg

Wow...Patti is a LEGEND

I watch this over and over again.

She is amazing! I respect her so much for her resilience, her intelligence, her honesty, her acting abilities and for that incredible voice!! She is one in a million!

This is one of the GREATEST performances of "COMING UP ROSES" ... EVER!!! ... Patti knocks it out of the park and the city!!! WOW!!! 💞👍💞👏💞

I love how scared the two of them are as Rose goes on her tirade. I think a part of Louise might be appreciative of her mother's attention but she knows it is more about her mother's longing for attention than for her.

She’s the GOAT!!!! ❤I have goosebumps!!!

Ms. LuPone sure knows how to bring an audience on their feet! I actually never saw Gypsy before but I love the song and she did a lovely job with it. Patti better be on the watch when Barbra Streisand bids farewell to the movie musical genre with her upcoming turn as Mama Rose. PS Laura Benanti was beautiful as Elsa in The Sound of Music Live three years ago.

She's a B'way composer's dream come true - incredible vocal clarity and she owns the role and the stage. The performance of a lifetime - hers and ours!

She was incredible

I never get tired of seeing this, her greatest performance EVER live. Phenomenal, Electrifying. Even Liza, a superstar and icon in her own right, was thrilled beyond measure.

I mean how could anyone not like Patti? She is truly, simply, one of Broadways extreme best. A Legend. This show has had its many runs, stars, but when Lupone stars, you just know its going to be exceptional. This did not disappoint. Would love to see her live.

I saw Patti sing this song in concert last weekend. Her live performance exceeded my wildest expectations. I have had the privilege of seeing some of the greats sing live, and Patti is at the top of my list. Her combination of charisma, vocal styling and pure star quality is unparalleled. She is an incredible artist. If you ever have the chance to see her sing live, don't pass it up!

Shivers. And just brings tears to my eyes with the perfection.

I love how at the end you can hear Patti coaching Laura for the standing o. “Take a bow, take a bow!”

Patti is fantastic, both as an actress and singer. Saw her in an intimate show in Toronto last year...wow! This is real talent people.

Instead of doing my papers, I'm here watching this again

Patti is literally perfect for this role

Goshhh this inspires me soooooo much i love Her!

One of the greatest Broadway performers in one of the greatest musicals ever written. Does it get any better than this ?! A Tour de force !!

and theres no stopping us this TIME-UH. lol i love that

this is superb, lupone at her best, but for the few lucky ones of us who got to see her as norma in sunset boulevard, that was something to see. still scratching my head as to why glenn is getting the movie and not patti. glenn is a fantastic actress and well deserving of her overdue oscar, but this role requires pipes and glenn can not sing. patti was so amazing in the role, and should be doing to the film. she was, as always, perfection. mystery!!!!

What a performance!!! She had the gods and goddesses of Theatre on their feet, open mouthed, like children, enraptured. To bring such joy, j'adore!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE this rendition. and I have no shame in saying that in almost everything else i love Bernadette's version (her vulnerability in Rose's Turn) But just the pure vocal power of this rendition is drool worthy

What a SOUND!!!

I just love how she drops her hands after the final note like, “it’s over.”

saw her in Gypsy on Broadway and it was the first time I've ever seen someone get a standing ovation in the MIDDLE of a show before, she was amazing!

Christ, it just blows your mind. When I need to feel good about humanity, talent like this is what sustains me.

I'm not a huge Patti LuPone fan and a few changes they made to the book (Specifically taking out the "Small World" reprise) that I didn't like, but Patti LuPone was absolutely amazing in this role! She showed so much emotion and her Rose's Turn is absolutely haunting.

Wow!!! Just wow!!!!

SHE IS MY IDOL!!! i love her she is amazing!!! I call her the Queen of Broadway

Saw her in this as a young adult and it was a core memory as a lifelong musical theatre fan. Missed company but finally got to see her on her tour last night and she did two numbers as Madame Rose. If you get a chance to see her you must, far better in person than video can capture, that voice is beyond bounds.

right when she started singing chills came and never left

4:13 Mandy (Che) clapping for his buddy. 😁❤😁❤

That's how it's done. Every aspiring performer should watch this and get educated. She served it!

I saw Gypsy last week - I have seen dozens of performances on Broadway, and Patty Lupone's was the best performance I have ever seen. She owned the stage. This is a must see.

I get chills every time… no one like Patty Lupone

Wow, this gave me chills! Amazing, just amazing.

Slayed.

She absolutely is, you will not get much better than Patti, her vocal technique is so brilliant, and shes so consistent on broadway, old school style ! love you patti!

Saw the magnificent Merman in the original company as well as the Patti LuPone production. Patti matches the brilliance of the original Rose with an extraordinary, absolutely perfect performance. Both for me were unforgettable experiences.

This gave me chills!

Patti is my EVERYTHING

I get goose bumps whenever she hits a high note. I love Patti

I am in pure awe of Patti LuPone.

I love her last "we got nothing to HIT but the heights" at 3:10 You can feel her desperation and uncertainty behind all of this. She's lost and hurt, and it's beautifully performed and shown from there to the end

"Standing ovation?!" "TAKE A BOW TAKE A BOW!"

The waves of shivers running through my spine throughout that performance until that last note....thought I was going to faint...wow, just wow. There's a reason why she's Patti Lupone.

Lifetime of work right here!!!!! AMAZING!!

Someone please pick me up off the floor. Don't just leave me lying here.

That is BROADWAY at it's BEST!

she is one of the most talented stars on Broadway. simply incredible

WOW!!! I have heard Patti Lupone sing before. That was unbelieveable!!! She gave me goosebumps. You can feel the instensity and emotion behind the song so well. It definitely kept me on the edge of my seat!
