In this video Musical Theatre Coach Marc Daniel Patrick discusses Jeremy Jordan in his performance of Santa Fe from Disney's Newsies (streaming now on Disney+)
Don't forget that Jack is a teenager. He's reacting like a teenager would.
Actually, I would argue the opposite. Teenagers are volatile. They change emotions frequently, they feel lot of things they don't know how to express. I've seen kids act this angry and i've seen adults act this angry, but to play a teenager you really have to explore the internal part of the character. Teenagers are full of this inner anger, this self-blaming, the feeling of "I don't know where I belong yet". And those are all internal feelings, not out screaming, shouting and punching the air. This one note acting "AAANGRY MAAAD... BUT NOW HOPEFULL TO END THE SONG"... that's not a teenager hahahaha. A teenager understands self blame!
@@pauloalmeidda9427 As a teenager, I've DEFINITELY acted that angry before. And in a situation like Jack's, where he just got one of his best friends beaten and arrested? Yeah, I'd be screaming too.
@@lindseysquire8417 I'm not complaining ONLY about the screaming. I'm complaining about the one note screaming. Teenagers are way more complex than that. He should show way more emotion than just that anger. Watch other actors singin this song in stage and you'll see other range of emotions that are not just punches in the air.
@@pauloalmeidda9427 how old are you, since I definitely acted like that, also you have look at the time when the musical was played
@@pauloalmeidda9427 While I somewhat agree with you, as a teenager myself I would say I would definitely be that angry if my best friend was beaten and dragged to jail.
i think its really important to remember he's playing a 17 year old. as a 17 year old this is, in my mind, such a beautiful depiction of the constant, drastically different, juxtaposing emotions that teenagers deal with
While I agree that there are some choices that border on overacting here, I think context is important. In multiple interviews surrounding the release of the filmed version from which this was taken, it was said that he had to perform Santa Fe eight consecutive times, with his voice being completely gone by the end. The close-up shots were filmed when there wasn't a live audience. And, he hadn't performed in the role for 4-5 years before stepping in with a much more abbreviated rehearsal than most of the cast had. With those things in mind, I think the performance that they chose to put into the filmed version can be forgiven a bit. To perform such a pivotal point and the most vocally taxing part in the show 8 times in a row, without an audience present to give their normal feedback, and without having performed it in a long time I can see why his performance reads as inconsistent. If you watch a bootleg of him as Jack during the Broadway run, his choices are much more subtle and would probably be more your cup of tea. I do think he does too much sometimes, but his performance as Jack in the bootleg helped me to fall in love with the musical that I thought I hated.
I saw him in the role at Paper Mill Playhouse pre-Broadway and then again when it was on Broadway another three times. I think when he was actively in the role, it was much better than the filmed version - but I still enjoy it!
Also I'm an obsessive fan of the movie -- and I'd still rather watch that over the stage version. Some of the changes were not my cup of tea.
Perfectly said
Jeremy Jordan's voice is a national treasure.
Let’s remember he had been away from this role for 5 years and jumped in with a week of rehearsals as he was filming Supergirl..not bad in my, granted untrained opinion for a weeks work...Completely agree about his voice!
No he hadn’t it’s an og cast recording from one of the first shows
He did the role of Jack at the Papermill playhouse. Then revived the role for dis eys broadway musical.@@freakofmanyfandoms7
So I get wanting more layers but if he is supposed to be a teenager I can kind of get the flat note ya know? As a teen you can experience all those emotions at once where you kind of become overwhelmed.
I’m so glad you reacted to this. Of the comments I’ve heard and read, people don’t like him simply because he acts angry or depressed either singing or talking. There’s nothing in between or no other emotion. Your praise of his vocal range and explanation of the complexities of acting out and singing angry emotions really helps.
I love this performance and it always makes me cry. I feel his desperation and helplessness totally, not just anger. I don't understand how the reactor doesn't feel it?
@@Debbie76 Theater is his life. I imagine if Jeremy struck a great note with perfect emotion, he would’ve made Marc shiver at least.
Just because theatre is "his life" doesn't mean he can feel every emotion.
The soundtrack version is more muted like he is wanting and, you know what? I feel nothing when I listen to it, yet as I said before, I will cry like a baby every time I watch this 🤷🏻♀️
@@Debbie76 He can feel emotions. What I mean by “theater is his life” is that he could go in any direction with it. Preferably method. Method acting is probably the best one in this situation. To use that with singing is not always easy nor difficult; it depends on the person using the skills. He very well could have achieved it.
And what you’re describing is somewhat of a good example. A soundtrack album is more muted, in a sound stage. The actor is not performing in front of a live audience, so he’s not giving it his all. Watching it - you can hear the pain, the anger, the anguish, and at the same time, you can see it in his face. It doesn’t always translate, but it’s there and you can sense it.
Exactly, you can hear and see how the character is feeling in this video which is why I don't think the reactor saying that JJ doesn't understand the character and should tone parts down is right. Jeremy Jordan IS Jack Kelly 🤷🏻♀️
Incidentally, I think Ben Cook is the best Race too and can't wait to see him in the new West Side Story 🙂
I feel like this is just Jack feeling like he's loosing control of everything and getting angry at everything and everyone. Like a teenager would. I know that I used to be angry and mad at the world for anything and everything so to me, it makes sense that in his situation, Jack would just want to yell and scream that life is unfaire and that he wants to get out of New York. But I get that some would see it as overacting.
On an unrelated note, I know it's a french musical but I would love to see you react to Danse mon Esmeralda from the original distribution of Notre Dame de Paris from 1998. There's a video of it with english subtitles somewhere on youtube if that helps with the lyrics and everything. That song is, to me, one of the most heartbreaking and beautiful song ever written and performed. It's the actor's first role ever (he was singing blues and jazz prior to that). Would love to hear your commentary on that performance and also maybe hear your thoughts on if you think, and if so how, a performance can transcend language. It's the last song of the show and I think it's one that truly stays with you love after you've seen it performed.
Just wanted to chime in and say I absolutely love Notre Dame de Paris! So many fantastic songs within the show, and "Danse mon Esmeralda" is definitely one to hear! (My other favorites are "Belle" and "Tu vas me détruire")
Im a simple girl i see my boo Jeremy Jordan I click
Now someone gets me
OMG I’ve been waiting so long for this reaction!!!!! AHH!!! I’m literally obsessed with Jeremy Jordan and his voice! He’s literally got GOLDEN PIPES! 😂 I’m also SOOOOO obsessed with newsies!!!!
Don’t forget he has a director that has a vision and directs how the scenes are to be acted out ...so “over the top” or not digging in enough are not all Jeremy’s choices...also this is the made for The big screen version....was this part acted out the same on Broadway?
Definitely. This version was very different from his portrayal on Broadway. I imagine after singing a song 7 or 10 times in a row, it is a lot harder to get into that headspace. And I imagine that the director and editor deliberately chose the overly angry take. They could have chosen more vulnerable ones and didn’t
Also when this was filmed he had been away from the role for 5 years and only had like a week of rehearsal before shooting began
I also had to add that he is doing this for the big screen so the camera is all up in his face, but he is used to overexaggerating the acting because the viewer can be at the back of the theatre. And what complicates it more, is the camera is in his face for the movie filming but they performed it live for a live audience on the last day. So it seems that the actors are stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Was the original more like the soundtrack version? As I don't find that emotional at all, but I always cry watching this 🤷🏻♀️
8:15 & 8:41 You know Jeremy’s serious when his eyebrows go: / \ and )(
Lol so true!
I saw him perform this during the shows original 12 week run on Broadway before it was extended. His vocals are amazing no matter what, but I do agree it’s a bit overacted here and it was not the case when I saw him perform the song on Broadway. It was such a magical experience seeing him and the whole original cast. One of my fondest memories from musical theatre.
Could be that you were in the moment of the show. I am a huge fan of Jeremy! I see this guys points, even though I hate them. Jeremy is an actor I want to see I’ve some point in my life in a live performance.
I'd loveeee to see you react to Made of Stone from Hunchback of Notre Dame with Michael Arden!
I think Out There or Hellfire as well would be good
Oh my God, absolutely yes!!! Please!! I'd be so grateful if he did, it's such a beautiful musical and underestimated!!
YES! THIS!!!!!
Yes
Yessssssss plzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The thing that is always said when acting on stage is that the audience will not be able to see small expressions so you must over exaggerate them in order for the audience to know what’s going on. Since this is a live show I understand where his acting choice came from.
So... we’re all going to ignore the offer of a reaction video to King of New York?
Its coming. Promise.
@@MarcDanielPatrick did it arrive?
It really sucks that you picked that one line to talk about overacting. I definitely agree that there is some overacting and sometimes it pulls me out and gets me frustrated, but the line "denying me my pay" is one that hits me in the gut every time specifically because of the way he sings it. I know it's external vs internal subjects to place blame, but I think that's why it works. He's angry at himself and has a strong reaction because he can do better and do something about it. At this point in the show, not being paid is set in stone. They haven't thought of the union yet. He's not angry about that, he's desperate and terrified. He gets quiet because he thinks he's powerless.
Dont disagree with you here, I just felt that section could have been ever more powerful with a little more work.
Haven't thought of the Union yet?
This is the song he sings after the 1st strike they organised as the Union doesn't turn out how he'd hoped and they were all beaten by both the goons and the cops, adding in that he's frustrated and angry that he wasn't able to save Crutchie, it all feels hopeless to him.
I do agree with your comments on how the song was sung though, I cry every time at the desperation and helplessness in his voice
Soooooo glad you did a react to this. Huge fan of the original movie and saw this cast live on Broadway. The show BLEW me away with how physical it was, not just the dancing...but the STAIRS! Cant wait for more Newsies!
Also....I love your facial expressions, I know exactly what your thinking by your reaction. As a fan of JJ i love him despite (and kind of because of) the fact that the acting is...um..alot!
This was a different version than the live show and he didn't know which version would be in the pro-shot. He admitted it in a clip (you can watch it in Making of Newsies, a fan movie) and he explained that he had to sing it over and over again so his voice was shot by the end and he was extremely tired. He also got less rehearsal time as he was in the middle of filming Supergirl. It had also been about five years since he had played Jack. If you find a live bootleg, it sounds 100% different and a bit more 'clean'
So interesting story for me about this song - a few years ago, had to take in my niece and nephew for a few weeks because my brother had to have surgery and there mom was not an option for reasons I won't really get into. I decided to watch this show with my niece, since she was starting to get into musical theater. My nephew came back from school right as this song started and was immediately mocking his sister for watching musicals. At the time, he was your typical angry 17yo teen going through a really rough time in life. But on Jeremy's second "and I'm done", he actually stopped and sat down through this song. As soon as it was over, he asked if we could replay it. He cried the second time through. He said much later that night that he'd never had a song that summed up how lost and angry he'd felt at that moment. It just stuck with me that this performance resonated with an actual 17 year old teenager who just wanted to drop everything and go.
This performance is hard to look at without the other context. This is the climax of the film where Jack's losing it, so that makes sense. Contrast this with the opening Santa Fe.
Yaaaaaaayyyyyy!!!!! I freaking LOVE The Newsies! And Jeremy Jordan was phenomenal in his role!
6:36 glad I get to see Jeremy Jordan’s spit in HD
I was fortunate to see Jeremy in Newsies years ago. Got discounted tickets, first row where we experienced plenty of sweat and spit. For me the production was the choreography and high energy. We (4 of us) were unexpectedly blown away. I love the melody of Santa Fe. I find it beautifully lyrical as it crescendos to its apex. I'll tell you...Jeremy brought the house down with his voice and good looks. I did feel, at times, that his acting was a bit forced and it made me uncomfortable. However, the more stage presence Jeremy had, the more comfortable I became. Maybe, I thought, this is an unapologetic, macho-ish New Yorker who doesn't give a crap. So, that's what I accepted, m. Thanks for the memories Marc.
The show on a whole definitely lives up to its ticket price (well, not discounted ones :p) Which is why I made sure to mention at the opening of the video, Newsies is a show that relies on its entire cast - and doesn't lean that heavily on its main players to make it memorable or impactful.
The no more running no more lying for me comes off as a dream/expectation that is attached to the idea of Santafe, not a determined from this moment going forward, so it makes sense that it's in the same dreamy place, not as much of a self determination shits gonna change right here right now kinda way.
Diana Ankudinova is a young performer who shocks us with her pleasant voice and takes us into the abyss of events!!! Diana Ankudinova is unique and inimitable, goosebumps from her voice!=)))) Diana sings as if she lives in the song! The soul freezes or opens with Diana's voice.=))))))) I am a musician who has been with music for years, and believe me, I have not heard such a tone in all these past years.
DIANA ANKUDINOVA SUPER💥🌷💥🌷💥🌷
You should react to Jeremy Jordan’s “the love I meant to say from the TV show Smash. It’s amazing and he sings the song live instead of it being a prerecording
Please react to Leslie Odom Jr. singing The Room Where It Happens. I think it’s THE song that won him the Tony.
That's my favorite song in the context of the movie. It has such huge character movement and is a key turning point in Burr's story.
THISSSS
I'd be inclined to agree. And its coming soon
I loved the acting and singing, especially that note at the end.
I really dont agree with you regarding his performance. The character is a 17yrold coming out of a fight he led....of course he is still letting the last of his anger out and not internalising.
I totally agree
Honestly i love his performance.... I felt and understood it so personally
Jeremy Jordan's voice is so perfect that sometimes it sounds autotuned and I totally love that singing style, it's like the antithesis of opera (not that I don't like opera lol)
Please react to Jeremy Jordan in Bonnie & Clyde! And his performances with Laura Osnes🤩
Jeremy Jordan smiles when he belts and my heart pings everytime
Newsies is also a musical about the Newsboys strike of 1899 that is basically what Newsies is based on
You should do the original movie rendition of this with Christian Bale!
My favorite movie 🤩
One of my favorite lyrics ever in a song is in Santa Fe the movie version and when it didn't make it into the Broadway Musical I was sooo disappointed. I've been obsessed with this movie since seeing it in theaters in 92. "For a dream night's the only time of day" is such a powerful lyric!
Omg, so bad its good (his singing) ! Love the original too
YES
I honestly really love his Santa Fe performances from not this filming. He talks about how he’s become more confident and a leader, and I think it’s helped his acting.
I’d love to see what you think about his performance of Its All Coming Back to Me Now it has a lot more emotion and like fun and passion in it than some of his other performances that you’ve watched and reacted to
I love Jeremy Jordan and this whole musical, but I thought your acting critiques were really insightful and spot on.
Perhaps one thing with the start being less focused inward and more in the second part of the song is that he’s literally just left the fight and seen Crutchy and the rest of his friends being beaten so his emotions are all over the place. Then the switch is at the couple of bars were he gets to take a break.
For something Like Empty chairs at Empty Tables you can feel that Marius has had some time to reflect, think through his emotions and think about what to say so it’s more focused inward.
I remember a phrase that my spoken voice education teacher says "generalities can do any, but subtleties not many do," I think that's what you mean by Jeremy, right?
I love your videos, they are very interesting and help me a lot in my career (I am studying acting) 🤗♥️
What I would like to know is what is the obsession musical theatre writers have with running away to Santa Fe? Is it just because it is in the sunbelt, and easy to rhyme? Or am I over-generalizing from this one and Rent?
Bahaha. Its not a bad question. I wish I had an answer.
this was the first musical I ever saw and I'm still so in love with it!
His voice is stunning !
Please do words fail from Dear Evan Hansen. Or some of Ben Platt’s solo songs
He did Ben Platt's Waving through a window, if I'm not mistaken
th-cam.com/video/UBKRzTSqDPk/w-d-xo.html
I appreciate that you didn’t just comment on his voice but focused on his acting choices instead. Jeremey Jordan is obviously an extremely talented singer, and it’s easy to gush over his belts all day, but considering how emotionally charged this song is, this type of approach seems much more suitable. Thank you!
I love his voice so much, one of my favorites ❤️
I sang these song on new year's eve in karaoke and my dad told me that I looked so angry and sad that he got scared for me lol
No one cares but my dad taught Jeremy Jordan at Ithaca College in Ithaca New York. Just a fun fact.
No Way!!! Really?
Dude you start judging his acting after the first refrain lol. He goes through so many emotions in this song and his acting is amazing. This song is from the heart. It’s not meant to be analyzed, it’s meant to be FELT. You are good at giving criticism, I assume you are good at taking it as well. “Spends too much time nitpicking physical details, emotion and heart are completely lost on him” I mean listen to that crowd. Either you are right or the Tony Award Administration Comittee, I wonder which
Remember Jack is 17 and he’s just seen his best friend/brother get beaten and sent to a place where Jack knows what’s gonna happen to him. The refuge has rats a vermin everywhere and they beat people even more.
I don’t think it’s so much an anger that he’s showing as it is a fear or a feeling of being trapped. To me, his choices are reminiscent of an abused dog locked inside a cage. I’ve honestly never registered this performance as simply being angry, but I do also see where you’re coming from since some people are bound to interpret it that way.
One of my favorite voices!!! Love him so much
Newsies is my favorite musical of all time and the whole cast is absolutely incredible. Please do more songs! I love your input, and I would love to see Seize the Day reviewed.
So spot on! Love it. Jeremy’s got a great voice, but he’s a bit of a one note and overacts. Michael Arden’s got it. As a New Yorker, I think his accent needs improvement. Gorgeous voice, though!
Your expressions are so real and fantastic. When he belts notes I see almost a proud look on your face.
It may be 1AM right now but when I get the notification that MDP uploaded you bet I’ll be watching that rather than sleeping
haha. aww. they'll still be here when you wake up, I assure you. But also...thank you!
I love this musical! Seize the Day, The World Will Know, and Once and For All are amazing numbers!
I really wish they didn’t pitch correct Jere-Bear so harshly on that last note. Let me hear him sing Damnit!
I couldn't agree more! I always felt like Jeremy's acting choices could be a little off-putting and bordering on overacting, but that VOICE...I could listen all day long 💕
I agree that Jeremy is overreacting a bit, but in Newsies, Jack is a teenager. So, as his role as Jack Kelly, Jeremy needs to play this seen how a teen would react in this situation :)
And you feel teens are not capable of subtle or internal moments? Especially when on their own and not face to face with peers?
@@MarcDanielPatrick They just beat and dragged his best friend to jail, I don't think I would be internalizing at that moment if it happened to me. Also, this is a stage production and oftentimes subtle emotions don't come across as well for people in the back.
God. I just love your channel so much. I also play it in my car and it makes me so happy.
Aww, thanks so much
Please, make a reaction to the songs of the singer Diana Ankudinova.
DIANA ANKUDINOVA SUPER💥🌷💥🌷💥🌷
1000000%!!!🔥🔥🔥🎤🎤🎤🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶......Amazing DIANA---Beauty in every minute!!!
I absolutely love your breakdown of this. And I personally agree that he overacts, but I really enjoyed his performance in the song “Maria,” when he performed as Tony in West Side Story. His vocals are flawless as usual, but the way he performed the lyrics and his love for Maria I thought was beautiful and nuanced and passionate. You should definitely give that a watch! I would love to see what you think about it.
I wish you had reviewed the first time he sings this in the show and not the reprise. Both are well worth listening to.
Jeremy is a great singer who acts...
I usually prefer actors who sing! Like Judy Dench singing Send In The Clowns (in BBC Proms 2010). Sitting down, barely singing, but a true masterclass on how to act a song, on how to feel every single verse while making every single word understandable.
You should react to it!! Truly breathtaking!
I’m a musical theatre student and they actually showed us that performance just so we would see that being an amazing singer is not enough and understanding the song is way more important. Such a great performance 🤩
@@emmabroekman888 That's great! You have awesome teachers, I can already tell. Always focus on the story! Singing is just a little part of that. If you can feel the lyrics, the audience will feel it too!
You should react to "The Other Side" and "Rewrite the Stars" from The Greatest Showman. They're my two favorite songs (along with "From Now On") from the movie. Hugh Jackman, Zac Efron, and Zendaya are incredible.
Icon
You direction and comments gave me a handle of what i should be looking for to make this scene work vocally ,and meaningful which as you said got better as he wet through this scene. and we eventually lost the monotone delivery, and ended up with a meaningful delivery which was far more interesting and dynamic of what we were seeing initially which was dull and monotone without emotional definition, thank you so much for your artistic direction and what was missing from the early intro to this scene.
Yay newsies is my all time fav!
Just found your channel with this reaction. Love that you include acting performance critique too. So spot on. I'm an actor too - so I find those critique elements incredibly useful. I also like how you are able to state when you really like something without sounding like a cheerleader, like many other reviewers do. That's so different and refreshing. Can't wait to check out the rest of your channel. You've got a great vibe and great insight. Thank you Marc
Newsies is an absolute favorite! What about Jeremys performance in The Last Five Years? Its such a different type of musical. Or even Anna Kendrick?
Review perhaps the best musical theatre duet of all time: Audra McDonald and Brian Stokes Mitchell singing “Wheels of a Dream” from the ORIGINAL cast of Ragtime performance in 1998. It’s a master class of the best singing and emotion.
He killed the ending !
I love what you do, and this is a great example. I just want you to do it to the historical layers of musical theatre. Whatever you see and critique here came on the shoulders of a rich history. There was a day where these vocal and acting choices came from a rather different skill set. Explore the past when there was a full orchestra pit, and less amplification. When projecting the human voice defined the performance options. When racial and gender boundaries defined the entire experience, and when an offering called When Thousands Cheer represented the first billing of a Black musical theatre talent in a mixed race production , There was a Richard Kiley before Jeramy Jordan, a Zero Mostel before a Jonathon Groff, Barbara Cook before there was a Kristen Chenowith, and an Ethel Merman before a Patty Lapone and they are all represented on You tube, and you can teach using all of it.
Nobody is looking at what Carol Channing was able to do with a restricted untrained vocal range, and the most expressive face in musical comedy history. So you take a crack at it!
"mermaids on heelys" - MDP
LOL
The whole song is driven by anger though
I completely agree with the overacting bit. In the few roles that I’ve seen Jeremy play, I’ve always had this feeling that he tries to make it a bit too obvious, especially the scenes where there’s anger involved. Still, he has an incredible voice and I’m always amazed when I hear him sing.
I actually dont really mind the overacring parts. Cause I know some people who who actually wouldnr get the emotions if he didnt overact it. Sounds dumb but thats actually true XD And I myself am not really an emotional person so, maybe it sounds dumb, but the overacting makes me more emotional. When someones just angry I would be "Aight hes mad." and not really care about why or what hes feeling like. The overacting actually helps me to realize those emotions.
But thats just personal stuff and personal opinion.
pleaseee make a video about Kara Lindsay's Watch What Happens from Newsies
Already did...
@@MarcDanielPatrick ah sorry i saw it later.. that was great too! can you make Eden Espinosa's Over The Moon - Rent 2008 Broadway Live? please
I see someone, below, has had a similar thought. Just for the fun of it, take a look at Christian Bale doing the song at the age of 19 in the original movie. Bale is not a singer and has nowhere near the vocal chops of Jeremy Jordan but, for my money, he brings it across as Jack in a much more successful way.
Same I actually prefer the movie over the Broadway production even if Christian Bales voice isn’t that amazing just because all the acting performances are so on point. I feel like the movie has more nuance
Love newsies
Couldn’t agree more - vocally just an absolute power house 🤯
The acting aspects in the first half, particularly of this version, is kind of “too much” in its almost constant frothing at the mouth rage, when there’s some subtle nuances in the actual lyric narrative.
Really enjoyed this one, great notes and it’s a recent new favourite song and undeniable vocal crush on JJ (again, wow, the pipes)
Please do seize the day next
Spot on analysis, as per usual! Thanks for doing this one!
Have you reacted to Jeremy in Last 5 years? I think he’s perfectly cast there
I would like to see you to react to Ramin Karimloo singing bring him home. But great video otherwise.
I will get to it, for sure
I love how most the guys in the show had a fake New York accent
Dedicated audience, here. I didn't cry during or after this performance- the vocals sound great, but the performance was boring, I found myself looking around the set for another actor to get more information from.
I definitely agree with your opinion on this. I kind of cringe every time I watch it as it’s so one note mad. There’s no layers. Especially as a teenager, he should be feeling and thinking about so much more.
I love love love your videos!!Can you review Sarah Brightman/Michael Crawford in Phantom?I would like to see your thoughts on Sarah B(favorite vocalist) in POTO? Thank you so much and I appreciate your incredible videos
Actually,can you do a comparative video between Sarah Brightman (stage ) and Emmy Rossum(movie) in Phantom of the Opera?
OMG YESSS YOU SHOULD TOTALLY REACT TO KING OF NEW YORK!!!! I absolutely LOVE that song and all the tap dancing!! (Mostly cuz I’m absolutely obsessed with Ben Cook 😂)
Maybe compare it to Christian bales version
It’s hard for me to get excited about much Jeremy Jordan does.
Hadestown, PLEASE! anything from hadestown
I commented this a while back and now I am sooo happy
Was it a mistake when you called this the "title track," or do I not understand what "title track" means?
you should totally react to george salazar and mj rodriguez's rendition of suddenly seymour!! i think their voices mesh together really well, and they're both amazing!
He did but it was blocked on TH-cam. You can see it on his Patreon page.
Yea...what Meredith said. lol
It takes all types right? Jeremy Jordan in musicals is like Kenneth Branagh doing Shakespeare, definitely over the top but he has the chops and the passion! And anyone who listens to him has to acknowledge that he can SANG! I forgive him some acting choices for the pure joy of hearing his voice.
oh boy, not sure i'd classify that as a fair comparison - but I see what you're getting at.
I agree though, especially the lyrics "no more running no more lying, no more fat old men denying me my pay" Should have had more inward and then outward directed emotion. He almost did the exact opposite and it just didnt ring as true.
Please react to him singing losing my mind from Follies
I’d absolutely love to see you watch some videos on the kid that played the youngest Jean Valjean ever, he was absolutely fantastic in it and he’s grown a lot since then and is even better than before. Check him out !
