Kristin Chenoweth sings one of my favorite songs from Candide (an operetta by Leonard Bernstein). She is, of course, AMAZING!!!!! There is a nice cameo by the queen diva, Patti LuPone here at the beginning. Background on her character: she is being held captive and shared between two men. She knows this is wrong and horrible, but they keep treating her to all of these nice jewels. Candide is a ridiculous farce that is tons of fun. This entire version is available from Netflix and is well worth your time. Not only is it hilariously entertaining, it is also incredibly well sung. The man playing Candide has a voice to melt anyone's cold, hard heart! :)
Amazing, no?!?!
