Everyone talking about the final note, and rightfully so. But my favorite part is the harmony on "I hope you're happy in the end". It is truly amazing!
You know, at first, I was worried that you wouldn't have the range for Elphaba's high notes, but HOLY CRAP was I wrong! You killed it, man! That was amazing!
dude, I'm speechless._. you are a great singer, and you are really handsome too, i'v been your fan for a while, and I'm always amused by your voice, I could hear you a thousand times, and i'd still get shocked
ashli674 Agreed. For Pete's sake, even as a girl - which _should_ make it easier to reach and sustain that note, _dammit_ - I struggle to reach AND maintain those damn high notes. Like _damn._ How does he do it?
@@charlesssinoy7591 it doesn't sound like autotune, it sounds authentic to me, because autotune has that sort of robotic sound to it, but this doesn't sound robotic
+fandomtrash wow :) thanks for all the comments you've left me! I truly appreciate words of encouragement from people like you. Makes all I do worth it :D I hope you enjoy my channel and fanpage!
I can't even put into words how amazing you are. Singing is one thing, but show tunes are a whole different thing. They take an exceptional amount of characterization and emotion that you don't see in regular singing, and you have it and throw it out there like it's easy. You deserve to be seen by the world and have your name up in lights. You are truly talented. And holy crap! Your range is incredible! When you did those high notes, you didn't even sound like you had to strain to get those out there! I can't wait for the day you make it big.
Wow Mr. Hyles... I've been a subscriber since you first sung let it go about 3 years ago and I'm still amazed and awed by your singing. Keep it up and God bless you! Also take care of your voice.
Woah...all I can say is this gave me goose bumps. Even being a high tenor/low alto, I still can't even hit those notes even in my falsetto. You rock Caleb!
So I'm the weirdo that saw a million people asking you do this song and never once listened to it. Now I see why it was so heavily requested. I'm absolutely amazed. I listened to it four times before I was even able to write this. I can't think of adjectives strong enough to describe my adoration for this without stringing along some long winded, incoherent babble. So I'll just say good job, love it, shared it, and you're wonderful. Big huge love.
Can we please just take a moment that this is sung in every single note. Not one note is taking down and there are many female singers who can't even sing these notes. Absolutely phenomenal
I'm absolutely speechless... That's the highest chest voice-note I've ever heard a man hit! I thought it was impossible, but now I just want to know if you are human 😉 Is there anything you can teach me, or give me a good source for high pitch singing? Stay awesome!
I thought that, because this is an older cover, I would hear some voice cracking, or straining at the high notes, but nope. None of that. It's goddamn beautiful.
Every time I listen to you sing I love your voice. But every time I heard this song in particular I'm just blown away by the sheer control you have over your vocals.
It was heart wrenching watching Caleb tear through his budding narcissism in order to to allow each of his schizophrenic-born personalities to branch out and reach their full potential. That pain on his faces when the second round of “I hope you’re happy” came about, just, wow.
[GLINDA, spoken] Elphaba, why couldn't you stay calm for once Instead of flying off the handle? I hope you're happy (sung) I hope you're happy now I hope you're happy how You've hurt your cause forever I hope you think you're clever [ELPHABA, spoken] I hope you're happy (sung) I hope you're happy too I hope you're proud how you Would grovel in submission, to feed your own ambition [GLINDA & ELPHABA] So though I can't imagine how I hope you're happy right now [GLINDA, spoken] Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry! (sung) You can still be with the wizard What you've worked and waited for You can have all you ever wanted [ELPHABA, spoken] I know (sung) But I don't want it No I can't want it anymore Something has changed within me Something is not the same I'm through with playing by the rules Of someone elses game Too late for second-guessing Too late to go back to sleep It's time to trust my instincts Close my eyes and leap! It's time to try Defying gravity I think I'll try Defying gravity And you can't pull me down [GLINDA] Can't I make you understand You're having delusions of grandeur? [ELPHABA] I'm through accepting limits 'Cuz someone says they're so Some things I cannot change But till I try, I'll never know! Too long I've been afraid of Losing love I guess I've lost Well, if that's love It comes at much too high a cost! I'd sooner buy Defying gravity Kiss me goodbye I'm defying gravity And you can't pull me down (spoken) Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do-together! (sung) Unlimited Together we're unlimited Together we'll be the greatest team There's ever been-Glinda! Dreams the way we planned 'em [GLINDA] If we work in tandem [GLINDA & ELPHABA] There's no fight we cannot win Just you and I, defying gravity With you and I defying gravity [ELPHABA] They'll never bring us down!
I can't stop watching this, especially since my husband and I could not decide where to vaca this year and after watching this we decided on going to New York to see Wicked. Thank you Caleb, I am sure you won't see this but I hope you know that I am honored to find someone like you to follow on this site. Keep being awesome! - Robbie Reed
occasionally I love to come back and just listen to this cover, it was the first time I heard your music and it's still incredible to hear the raw power of it :)
I only found the Subscribe button after watching you *in the darkness of The Music of the Night. Let your mind start to journey through a strange new world, leave all thoughts of the life you knew before. Let your soul take you where you long to BEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Only then, can you belong to me.* ;)
holy good god How much classical training have you had, because there is some definite theatre training in there! (And could you ever sing I Hear Bells from starting here, starting now? )
You are so amazing I can't even put it down in words. There is not one time I visit your channel that I don't get lost listening to you for hours and feeling so many feels.
Before i even listen to this, omfg i saw the title and nearly had a f*ckin heart attack. I am in love with wicked, it is the best musical ever as far as i am concerned, and the fact that he is singing defying gravity, omfg i can't, this is gonna be amazing, i know it!
This is 100% my favorite cover of this song of all time. And I've seen it live 5 times with 5 different Elphaba's and dozens of youtube versions. Bravo!

His neighbours are blessed to have him as a neighbour
I would pay extra for a house next to him.
The Brennan ikr
I think he records it in a soundproof room with good equipment and then just acts it out elsewhere....
@@NairAthul There is always shower time, and don't tell me he doesn't sing in the shower. I refuse to believe it.
I need to move nextdoor to this guy. I must!
His vocal range is defying gravity!
*Yes sir, yes sir, yes sir, yes sir.* ;)
Ah, Yeeesssss
Yeess it is, Sir~
Defying reality
No freaking kidding!
TRUE
*waits patiently for the final note*
Yep. That was the best range I have ever heard.
Amen. I started fangirling on the spot. I _never_ fangirl. That was weird. And sick. And weirdly awesome.
Vasticar bullshit
Chris Colfer exists
stardustgalaxy17 look at Curt from glee
Vasticar, you seem to be new around here
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD THIS VIDEO
THIS RANGE
THAT NOTE
THAT T A L E N T
Who wouldn't
Yeet
"You're having delusions of grandeur-"
"IIIIII'M THROUGH ACCEPTING LIMITS"
*ultimate jaw drop...*
I love this part as well, its G sharp :)
I skipped listening to this when it first uploaded because I've never seen Wicked....I regret my past mistakes....
I completely agree with you
Did the same, just seeing it now actually but it's amazing!!!
Also go watch wicked.
I agree haha
Saw it last year in London it was amazing.
Mortal men: "This song has stupidly high notes; should I pick Option 1: sing it down the octave, or Option 2: sing it in falsetto?"
Caleb : "Option 3"
Get you a man who can do both.
Caleb: Hold my beer.
lol mortal men XD
Mitch Grassi can sing it!
Rhys Stuller he’s singing in mix so it’s not really the same
3:31 - Did you see that sparkle in his eyes?! It was so adorable!
4:10 - *I AM SHOOK*
When you sang "anymore" a vein in my hand did this little twitch and I think it was because your voice brings me life
I'd go to a doctor personally.
Everyone talking about the final note, and rightfully so. But my favorite part is the harmony on "I hope you're happy in the end". It is truly amazing!
Omg youre right
You know, at first, I was worried that you wouldn't have the range for Elphaba's high notes, but HOLY CRAP was I wrong! You killed it, man! That was amazing!
still my favorite cover of this song
Hands down it is.
Yep. This is SO GOOOOOD
Brittany G. glee cover is better
aaron tveit's version is also as good as this
I always imagine an army of calebs shouting “look at her! She’s wicked” at 5:32.
oh no why did you have to give me a cursed and blessed thought at the same time-
@@user-gz2hy2wu5g like that tiny army filter lmaooo
The only thing missing from perfection.
*Newton throws his laws in the trash*
Lol
You, sir, deserve my like.
Newton: At last, I’ve finally begun to understand how the universe works!
Caleb: >exists<
Newton: God... SCREW IT!!! >Stuffs laws in a paper shredder.
dude, I'm speechless._. you are a great singer, and you are really handsome too, i'v been your fan for a while, and I'm always amused by your voice, I could hear you a thousand times, and i'd still get shocked
For the love of god Disney.. Broadway.. hire him.
Kelly Louise Killjoy sadly it doesn't work like that
Kayla Productions how does it work then
Broadway, Lin, somebody, hire Caleb to play Phantom! ;)
That too, although if that does happen, Caleb would have to compete with Nick Petira for Elfie's role. ;)
THANK YOU
I listened to this 23 times today...absolutely no regrets
***** #IRGRETNOTHING!!!
***** only 23?
+raha8398 I've listened to it the whole day.......
Not gonna lie... I put this on autoplay while I work. Doing the math... 10 hours of work means... oh dear...
My goosebumps have goosebumps
Ikr
😂😂hey hack
jack* 😂
I've seen you somewhere on the youtubes . . . ;)
Wow. First I thought "yeah, he's pretty good" and than the second thought "wow, nice range" and in the end I couldn't close my mouth. A.m.a.z.i.n.g.
I swear he made a deal with the devil for that sweet, sweet voice
No need. God given.
I’m already going to hell so why don’t I do this
his soul was blessed by the less cool version of me known as god, his soul would have been delicious though
Caleb bringing in the chills! You don't know huh... Musical numbers? Like... Into the Woods music? MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYBE?!
KaggyFilms (Alejandro Saab) I love you
KINDAAAA
I just realised you have aged six years since making this comment
THE HIGH NOTE DUDE! HOW DID YOU DO THAT? NO MAN HAS HIT THAT HIGH NOTE AND MADE IT SOUND AS GLORIOUS AS YOU HAVE.
ashli674 Agreed. For Pete's sake, even as a girl - which _should_ make it easier to reach and sustain that note, _dammit_ - I struggle to reach AND maintain those damn high notes. Like _damn._ How does he do it?
he uses autone, a lot of processing is done.. just compare their rendition from superfruit's.... mitch's voice is so natural than caleb
I'm sure some men can hit that note, especially Brendon Urie
@@charlesssinoy7591 it doesn't sound like autotune, it sounds authentic to me, because autotune has that sort of robotic sound to it, but this doesn't sound robotic
this is the first time ive heard a man sing this and its absolutely phenomenal!!!
and those harmonies, brilliant!
By FAR my favorite cover of this song still. There's just something about your voice that shakes me to the core. Stay incredible Caleb.
This shook my life. Subscribed
Jesus that range!! He must be Brendon uries long lost brother!
omg yas
omg... you're right!
omg you right
yes.
4:33 that part is my range!
I wonder how he felt arguing with himself
@David Cain
Probably the same as how Thomas Sanders feels filming a Sanders Sides episode. *Shrugs*
Skarlet Exorcism yESSSS
He did it in his Confrontation cover
Not to mention you are seem like an awesome, funny, and genuinely nice person. We need more people like you in this world.
+fandomtrash wow :) thanks for all the comments you've left me! I truly appreciate words of encouragement from people like you. Makes all I do worth it :D I hope you enjoy my channel and fanpage!
Hell yes, I will most definitely enjoy it! You keep doing you and I'll keep loving it :D
+fandomtrash I met him in person a bit ago, and can confirm he's just as nice and awesome in person.
this song already makes me emotional and then you hit that freaking note and i started legit crying
5:25 : * sipping tea *
5:30 : * FALLS OUT OF CHAIR *
Same

You serious just gave me chills, you have an awesome voice :)
+xcarter48 Thank you so much!!
+Caleb Hyles you always give the the shivers you're just amazing!
Dude I've never heard a guy do this but wow! So amazing!
Thank you so much!
Kurt Hummel on Glee man lol XD
Karma Hayami Caleb has a MUCH wider vocal range though
Wow! How did he do that without rupturing his vocal chords? He's another beautiful freak of nature.
NASA needs to hire you because your range is up in the stratosphere. Amazing!
Please work in Disney or wherever. You sound so dreamy like a prince
Wow Mr. Hyles... I've been a subscriber since you first sung let it go about 3 years ago and I'm still amazed and awed by your singing. Keep it up and God bless you! Also take care of your voice.
thank you so much!!!! So glad you've been a fan for so long!!!! Hope you're enjoying this year's horror for hyles!
Caleb Hyles
Oh I well, actually I'm listening to your covers right now.
Did Idina Menzel hive him great tips?? HE IS AWESOME I COULD NEVER HIT THOSE NOTES!
Yazmarohma42 really
4:10
that harmony is just stunning. You have an incredible voice man, definitely should be on Broadway or something to that level.
SIIIINNGGG ITT BABYYY!!!!!
*_SOMEONE SHOULD MAKE A SPLIT AUDIO OF THIS AND THE ORIGINAL_*
I think I will!
Or this and Anapantsu’s version
@Star-ou5gq did you end up doing it?
Woah...all I can say is this gave me goose bumps. Even being a high tenor/low alto, I still can't even hit those notes even in my falsetto. You rock Caleb!
My chills have chills watching this
that note at 5:26 is the most awesome note on your entire channel!
I love your voice. My first experience was when you went to Anime STL at St. Charles Convention Center last year.
How many vocal ranges do you want to hit?
Caleb: Yes.
Exactly!
So I'm the weirdo that saw a million people asking you do this song and never once listened to it. Now I see why it was so heavily requested. I'm absolutely amazed.

I'm now picturing Dumbledore and Grindlewald singing this duet in their youth.
TOO MUCH TOO MUCH TOO MUCH TOO MUCH
YES
*HA! ;)*
YES! HELL YES!
SOMEONE MAKE THE AMV NOW
Now that I know that you've done something from Wicked, I request that you do a cover of No Good Deed. Please.
Yes!!! PLEASE!!!!
I could totally do with an As Long As You're Mine cover
For Good and Popular
YES! That song is amazing
YESSSSS! THAT'S MY FAVORITE SONG FROM WICKED!
Can we please just take a moment that this is sung in every single note. Not one note is taking down and there are many female singers who can't even sing these notes. Absolutely phenomenal
A song most women would struggle with and this dude did it effortlessly in the same range
I'm absolutely speechless... That's the highest chest voice-note I've ever heard a man hit! I thought it was impossible, but now I just want to know if you are human 😉 Is there anything you can teach me, or give me a good source for high pitch singing? Stay awesome!
+B Linder Try checking out Corvyx
+Cindy Young Any specific video?
Check out Superfruits cover of defying gravity, you'll be shocked
+ChloeAlyce Most of Mitch's high notes are falsetto, though :/
+B Linder i don't think they are
Please, Caleb! Please make a cover of No Good Deed from Wicked! Please? :3
Oh, yes please!
Phoenix Aisenfield yeee
Phoenix Aisenfield
YES YES YES
YES!!! OMG that is my favorite song from wicked. I so need this in life now
i got shivers when he sang together with himself at that middle part
I thought that, because this is an older cover, I would hear some voice cracking, or straining at the high notes, but nope. None of that. It's goddamn beautiful.
If anything, this was in his prime and he's only gone downhill from there
@@Graceclaw nah, he's still really good
@@user-gz2hy2wu5g agreed, but this is far from his true peak
I just imagined a Wicked genderbend
Same
I wish it will be possible
Same here
Edit: I think we just witnessed a Wicked genderbend
I am just in awe whenever I hear you sing. You simply have an amazing gift and I love that you share that gift with us. Please never stop! Love ya!
Annie Todd Thanks for your continued support, Annie! It's always uplifting seeing a comment from you :)
Idina and Kristin would've been proud.
I think Alexia would absolutely adore this.
Absolutely

defying gravity is my favorite song.
Mine too and don't rain on my parade
+Singing kid those are mine too

한국분이...ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
@5:38 my wig was SNATCHED! GO BOY!!!!!! Those notes were epic!
Caleb looks like an angel with those rays of light coming off of him and he sings like an angel too.
...i think your vocal range just melted my brain (and my heart omg)
Dude, you should join an opera or a musical concert. You should not perform not only in TH-cam but in Stage. You have an amazing voice!
I want to see him and Mitch Grassi of Pentatonix do a duet
OMG!!!!
+Bobby Dark YASS! THAT WOULD BE AWESOME!
Bobby Dark YOU DESCRIBE MY HEAVEN
Bobby Dark That would be amazing!
THIS!!!!!!
Every time I listen to you sing I love your voice. But every time I heard this song in particular I'm just blown away by the sheer control you have over your vocals.

This is the first time that I heard this beautiful song in male voice. You need to go to the Broadway! You sing very well! Good job!
I would LOVE to see a cover of Simple and clean from kingdom hearts from you >w
Utada Hikaru is a hard act to follow. But then Caleb might just do it.
Yes!!
OOoh and Sanctuary too. I might just die if he did that
I second this motion, and if he can do a good cover of Music of the Night (which he has) then he can do Utada.

Elphaba, why couldn't you stay calm for once
Instead of flying off the handle?
I hope you're happy
(sung)
I hope you're happy now
I hope you're happy how
You've hurt your cause forever
I hope you think you're clever
[ELPHABA, spoken]
I hope you're happy

I hope you're happy too
I hope you're proud how you
Would grovel in submission, to feed your own ambition
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
So though I can't imagine how
I hope you're happy right now
[GLINDA, spoken]
Elphie, listen to me. Just say you're sorry!
(sung)
You can still be with the wizard
What you've worked and waited for
You can have all you ever wanted
[ELPHABA, spoken]
I know
(sung)
But I don't want it
No
I can't want it anymore
Something has changed within me
Something is not the same
I'm through with playing by the rules
Of someone elses game
Too late for second-guessing
Too late to go back to sleep
It's time to trust my instincts
Close my eyes and leap!
It's time to try
Defying gravity
I think I'll try
Defying gravity
And you can't pull me down
[GLINDA]
Can't I make you understand
You're having delusions of grandeur?
[ELPHABA]
I'm through accepting limits
'Cuz someone says they're so
Some things I cannot change
But till I try, I'll never know!
Too long I've been afraid of
Losing love I guess I've lost
Well, if that's love
It comes at much too high a cost!
I'd sooner buy
Defying gravity
Kiss me goodbye
I'm defying gravity
And you can't pull me down
(spoken)
Glinda, come with me. Think of what we could do-together!
(sung)
Unlimited
Together we're unlimited
Together we'll be the greatest team
There's ever been-Glinda!
Dreams the way we planned 'em
[GLINDA]
If we work in tandem
[GLINDA & ELPHABA]
There's no fight we cannot win
Just you and I, defying gravity
With you and I defying gravity
[ELPHABA]
They'll never bring us down!
Oh lord... best range, tone, control, ... voice... everything I’ve ever heard.
my gawd. I hadn't heard you sing this and I'm so glad I stumbled on this cause you were amazing!
Like...you hit those notes, and the emotion on your face...
Just Bravo sir, Bravo!
Thank you ***** !
I can't stop watching this, especially since my husband and I could not decide where to vaca this year and after watching this we decided on going to New York to see Wicked.

I just subscribed to you, but I love your old stuff so much. How did I miss you for so long? Love you, Caleb!
Instant tears from watching this, the dedication in his face, the power of his voice, everything!

What a WICKED cover!
I'll see myself to the door...
The door is that way that’s a wall
no no, keep going
Bravo!
Rim shot.
I never really understood why some people would get emotional over a song being sung so well and so powerfully.
Now I know. :'D

You are extraordinary. The acting, the characterization, the sheer physicality of your singing, and the vocal fireworks of the last minutes.
I get legit goosebumps when listening to this, when he reaches "So if you care to find me...", they just erupt all over my arms
holy good god
How much classical training have you had, because there is some definite theatre training in there!
(And could you ever sing I Hear Bells from starting here, starting now? )
Have you ever considered trying to sing opera arias. You have quite the tenor voice.
You are so amazing I can't even put it down in words. There is not one time I visit your channel that I don't get lost listening to you for hours and feeling so many feels.
Letícia Wilhelm Thank you very much for being such a big supporter :) I hope to continue to release quality music
Other men: "hmm can't hit those high-notes, gonna sing this in a deeper tone."
Caleb: "You're what we in the musical community call 'weakness'."
Anyone who can belt it out like that deserves my subscription. Bravo dude.
Holy crap, I have chills! This is SO good!!! I love 'Wicked' and you have an awesome range
I never comment on videos but holy crap... this is the best cover I have ever heard by far
agreed
Before i even listen to this, omfg i saw the title and nearly had a f*ckin heart attack. I am in love with wicked, it is the best musical ever as far as i am concerned, and the fact that he is singing defying gravity, omfg i can't, this is gonna be amazing, i know it!
Your vocal range OAO....I'm so stupidly impressed. Best cover I've heard of this! Great job Caleb!
Somebody hold me I am overwhelmed by both this man's talent and the sudden surge of nostalgia and longing for my Wicked days
you have such a wonderful voice and beautiful eyes as well :D
hi
Peace, love, and metal! Ahhh! Dude, I love your motto x) And I am in awe of this video.. AMAZING job bro :D
Maria Arce WOOO!! :D "PL&M" \m/ Thank you very much, Maria :)
Song always brings tears to my eyes and you did it justice. Damn you hit those notes, such a powerful voice. 100% subscribed.
My heart started fluttering when you sang the last verse I love you so much!!you are my biggest inspiration ever!! Your range is AMAZING
This is 100% my favorite cover of this song of all time. And I've seen it live 5 times with 5 different Elphaba's and dozens of youtube versions. Bravo!
