Saw MAP in London as the MC last month. For the love of everything good and holy, the producers need to give them the lead when it transfers to Broadway. Absolutely breathtaking performance!!
I'm expected to see Broadway production with Eddie Redmayne as Emcee in a few days, which I am greatly excited about, but I truly hope I'll get to see this performer in that role sometimes too. I just got to know them only because their footages from Olney Theatre Center popped up on my TH-cam account, and I am blown away!
I grew up watching Alan Cumming as the Emcee. I was inspired by the role and that performance. When I came out to my Dad as NB he said "Oh, like the Emcee." As an NB person myself, seeing Mx. Park take on this role is a dream come true. A tortured and sad dream given the content of the musical, but a dream nonetheless of NB people taking on intense songs and scenes.
@@waynew4726no one asked for your opinion also how can there be no such thing when people identify as it. Just because you chose to be ignorant doesn’t mean you get a say in others lives.
I ain't denying anything, I just don't believe in it. There are only two sexes. Male and Female. It's basic biology. You guys are the ignorant.@@fermentingdragon
To tell the truth, the difference between this and the live version that's up on TH-cam is so interesting! They're both really good performances, but both offer a completely different take each on the same song. The live version offers more bite, more bitterness. You can hear how he spits out some words. This almost sounds more heartbroken and hopeless in a way. A far cry from the anger of the past, but it still resonates with the lyrics as both ways work for me. The way I view it is almost like losing an argument. You either go out shouting and screaming like "Fine! Whatever! Do what you want! I don't even care anyway!", or you're more defeated with all hope given up like "yeah. Whatever. Do what you want. I don't care anymore." Both are so totally different to each other, but again, it works with the lyrics of the song! Pretty masterful if you ask me.
@@endermancouncil you’re gonna have a magical time! Mason is a freaking AMAZING emcee! Also, I hope you get to see Emily Benjamin as Sally! She is by far the best person to play the role in years!
I saw Mason few days ago during their Cabret run and oh lord were they angelic and etheral. I got chills everytime they were on stage. Must see performance
I love this song, and their performance is immaculate. Vocally, it's astounding and it's just dripping with passion and intensity and you can feel every possible emotion that can be derived from this song. I love the look too. It's very cool and very different from every other EmCee I've seen. They're a truly incredible performer and I would love to see a full version with them in this role.
Oh my god, thank you for posting this! As someone who got to see Mason perform as the Emcee TWICE, this song in particular sent chills down my spine! Mason’s interpretation of this iconic character makes them at one moment a fun and cheeky master of ceremonies and another moment a scary and thrilling monster! Mason will truly be an iconic Emcee!
I thought I knew what it felt like to get goosebumps when listening to a song that feels like it transcends past just a simple listening experience. But this. This was simply breathtaking, enthralling and overall just every synonym for magnificent there can be. Insane performance, absolute chills. Took me to another place, felt like I was listening to it live with my own ears
I’ve worked there since July and had the pleasure of watching Mason a good 50-60 times. The fact that it didn’t get boring in any way is a true testament to his craft. Upon his last show at the Kit Kat Club a singular tear ran down his cheek when he said his last line. Saddest thing I’ve ever witnessed on stage.
This is the third time I’ve listened to this today idk how many Times total and I am in love with their voice! I’d love to see them in anything in person in the future. 2:12 this part on is my favorite but it’s all SO amazing
I’d never heard of this person before until recently. I was wowed. Saw the show in London last month, and it was one of the most enjoyable stage shows I’ve seen in a while. Mason’s voice is incredible-very sonorous; very grand. Their presence was easily my favourite part of the show.
MAP fell in appreciation, awe , and in love with your acting on New Quatam Leap. Today I googled to find out more about your journey. Totally blown away and in WoWza of theatre singing. So much Heartfelt emotions that pierced every part of me. Best to you always. So much adventures ahead for you 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉Vintage rock/ blues singer/entertainer KAT 🐾
I'm only familiar with Mason through what limited Cabaret clips on youtube we have, and yet they've overtaken Alan Cumming as my favorite emcee. I adore Alan, but Mason's is evolved in a way that hits more personally for me. They nail the spectacle, mystery and seduction of the emcee but reveal glimpses of broken person buried alive under the emcee persona. I've only ever seen musicals through the internet, but I'm fully committed to seeing this show should Mason ever reprise the role.
THANK YOU!! Mason's performance of this song is more moving than any other I've seen. (And there are some Great ones out there!) I saw him twice in London. Unforgettable. This version is so gorgeous & poignant. His 2021 version is devastating & heart wrenching. I can't praise it enough.
the most exquisite emcee which all other emcees bow before (i played the emcee in college and mason u sing this song like literally no one i have ever heard before). just haunting, ruined, glamour, pathos and grit and filth in your voice. you light up this role like no one. again i say, bravissime!!!
Oh my God! I have no words. Mason's version of this song is so hauntingly beautiful. It literally took my breath away. A lot of performers have sung this song over the years but ,in my book, they all pale in comparison to Mason's version. I felt this performance to my core. Most people don't know but this song wasn't originally written for The Emcee. It was written for a prostitute. I"m glad they decided to let The Emcee have it.
Sublime. Magical. Here are the lyrics (the accent makes them a little hard for me to understand--also I am half-deaf these days so it could just be me!): I don't care much Go or stay I don't care very much Either way Hearts grow hard On a windy street Lips grow cold With the rent to meet So if you kiss me If we touch Warning's fair I don't care very much I don't care much Go or stay I don't care very much Either way Words sound false When your coat's too thin Feet don't waltz When the roof caves in So if you kiss me If we touch Warning's fair I don't care very much
I don't care much Go or stay I don't care very much Either way Hearts grow hard On a windy street Lips grow cold With the rent to meet So if you kiss me If we touch Warning's fair I don't care very much I don't care much Go or stay I don't care very much Either way Words sound false When your coat's too thin Feet don't waltz When the roof caves in So if you kiss me If we touch Warning's fair I don't care very much
Even though I’m a huge cabaret fan. I’ve admittedly never heard this song before and now Mason has ruined every other version for me forever by being so incredible.
I love them at least they don't pretend to be a gender they are not unlike trans people saying they are the opposite gender i get feeling out of place and stuff but it doesn't make you another gender. that being said identify as whatever as long as you don't hurt someone but just because you're trans doesn't mean you get the rights of the other gender i think that is where the issue is. have the rights of your own gender. be happy healthy and safe.
Very simple, moving. Wonderful. One request……please articulate the final consonants. Forgive me…..45 years in the business requires me to give notes……even unsolicited notes.❤️🌈🇪🇸💕 From Spain
devastated i waited until after they left to see cabaret. hoping they play the emcee again on broadway
Someone needs to release a new cast recording of Cabaret with them! Such an amazing and passionate rendition of this song!
The cast changes too often to really justify another cast recording sadly, they’re expensive to produce
Saw MAP in London as the MC last month. For the love of everything good and holy, the producers need to give them the lead when it transfers to Broadway. Absolutely breathtaking performance!!
i agree entirely!! no one else can play this role like them!
Absolutely. Also, I thought I was the only one calling them MAP.
Opening the production would be great to put them in for tony consideration but schedule permitting they'll almost certainly be a replacement
im absolutely so heartbroken i missed them as emcee i wouldve killed to see it
@@tamarbeker1701 i just called him that too... prob due to awesome long name but easier to type when posting😉

There is no such thing as non binary.

@@imgrggbsn I'm not ignorant. I have my opinion JUST AS YOU HAVE YOURS. I accept everybody. But I don't have to find everything alright or normal.
@@waynew4726 denying someones existence as their very being is quite literally not accepting everyone

OMG the Growl on False! I keep rewatching this, absolutely poetic… wish I could see them perform live

holy fuck that was literally ethereal
going to see this on saturday and am now just infinitely more excited

THIS IS A MASTERPEICE, i've never heard this song this way. heartbreaking and stunning.
This is a whole fucking mood dude
Holy shit, hearts in my eyes!
This role was made for Mason - I am SO grateful I got to see them live 🥹 breathtaking, wish I could see it again
OH MY GOD MASON ALEXANDER PARK THE PERSON YOU ARE
Possibly the most attractive voice I've ever heard ❤
one of the first things i liked on youtube after several years.. such an amazing voice and reenkarnation of the real one.. alan cumming.. ❤ lovely
Hypnotizing and so heartbreakingly beautiful ❤❤❤ so grateful I found this!
That was goddamn breath-taking. Wish I'd managed to see Mx. Park live!
So hauntingly beautiful. MAP is amazing 💜
Astonishingly beautiful😢😢
I saw Mason few days ago during their Cabret run and oh lord were they angelic and etheral. I got chills everytime they were on stage. Must see performance
mason uses they/them :)
They?? It is an narcisitic guy.
@@waynew4726 No, they're non-binary. :)
just saw them today, and they were the absolute highlight of the show!!!!
God i love this rendition so much. The live version is so much more heartbreaking, but they're both so amazing 💕💕

FUCKKKKKK FUCK. Not me crying in the shower listening. I need to get to London ASAP
Keep coming back to watch this, when I need a moment of reflection or just to appreciate astonishing talent.

They are incredible. They definately are the best I've ever heard in the cabaret lead. And I've seen several. Well done Mason
Very good singer
WOW the power in those vocals are next level! I'm obsessed
Absolutely sublime ❤
More videos please!!!
Mason, this is fantastic. You were born to play the MC
Body shivers, now that is rare 🤩
Wow! My new favorite version!!
Bravo! Absolutely spellbinding…

Mason uses they/them pronouns
Everyone, you guys don’t know how fucking lucky we are to see this!
Right?! It's not like everyone gets highlighted like this. I believe it was released on their birthday so maybe that had something to do with it?
Saw Mason in Cabaret last week and they literally took my breath away.Masons rendition of this song is both beautiful and heartbreaking ❤
absolutely beautiful
I am totally addicted to this singing! It almost physically hurts my heart, but I can't stop listening and I don't want to!
Absolutely incredible.
I feel euphoria and excitement all over my body
Mason let the world know this voice
Emotion. 😊🤩
SAW THEM LAAST NIGHT MADE ME CRY SO MUCH THEY ARE SOOO GOOD 😭😭

They were amazing. Breathtaking, beautiful, haunting. X
Hoping to see MAP this month. This is a stunning version.
MAP simply steals the show.Amazing performance!
Mason's performance should earn an award . Absolutely brilliant
This performance of this song is becoming a bit of a hyperfixation for me. I loved them as Desire in Sandman
saw them as emcee in London last month and i just keep coming back here to relive it and cry
WOW!!!!!!!!
I saw them in London two weeks ago. Their performance was absolutely breathtaking!!! Go see the show if you can. You won't regret it.
❤
I'm SO THRILLED! that they're playing the role again!!!
Sublime. Magical. Here are the lyrics (the accent makes them a little hard for me to understand--also I am half-deaf these days so it could just be me!):
I don't care much
Go or stay
I don't care very much
Either way
Hearts grow hard
On a windy street
Lips grow cold
With the rent to meet
So if you kiss me
If we touch
Warning's fair
I don't care very much
I don't care much
Go or stay
I don't care very much
Either way
Words sound false
When your coat's too thin
Feet don't waltz
When the roof caves in
So if you kiss me
If we touch
Warning's fair
I don't care very much
THE POWER WTAF
I don't care much
Go or stay
I don't care very much
Either way
Hearts grow hard
On a windy street
Lips grow cold
With the rent to meet
So if you kiss me
If we touch
Warning's fair
I don't care very much
I don't care much
Go or stay
I don't care very much
Either way
Words sound false
When your coat's too thin
Feet don't waltz
When the roof caves in
So if you kiss me
If we touch
Warning's fair
I don't care very much
Literally planning a trip to Broadway in case Mason lands the role there.
Could not see them in London... How I wish they will land the role on Broadway!!!
Wow. I didn't think anyone could come close to Alan Cumming. Moving and pure. Thank you.
I want to see them do Hedwig
they played hedwig in the us tour and were PHENOMENAL!!
I truly hope them to become a Emcee on Broadway🙏♥️
Saw them last week and they completely stole the show
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 from GREECE!!! utube CABARET JOHN BAVAS! Amazing 😍🤩 utube CABARET JOHN BAVAS
They were magnificent in London. The show…not so much. Love love love their performance of this song!
Even though I’m a huge cabaret fan. I’ve admittedly never heard this song before and now Mason has ruined every other version for me forever by being so incredible.
I am moved.
Barbra's version is the best
Didn't know Streisand sung a cover of this and thought you meant Raul Esparza, referring to him by his Law & Order character "Barba". 😅
I am convinced they are coming back for the cast change.
a little diction wouldn’t go amiss…
I love them at least they don't pretend to be a gender they are not unlike trans people saying they are the opposite gender i get feeling out of place and stuff but it doesn't make you another gender. that being said identify as whatever as long as you don't hurt someone but just because you're trans doesn't mean you get the rights of the other gender i think that is where the issue is. have the rights of your own gender. be happy healthy and safe.
