Ben Platt. Agganis Arena at Boston University. 9/29/22 Filmed by Michael Hammond. Watch Marc Daniel Patrick's reaction to this video here: • BEN PLATT covers "She ...
I’ve seen this song performed hundreds of times over the years on TH-cam. From 3:36 I was almost moved to tears with how he sang this. Incredible performance & rendition of this song.
Omg wow. Just wow. Even more potent that I feel in love with Sarah Bareilles’s first album the year my first daughter was born and I was 23. And that daughter introduced me to the musically that is Ben Platt. Nobody expels such emotion in their vocals as that man. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a beautiful voice!! I love the song. I've listened to Sara & then Katherine McPhee, then wanted to hear a males take on it & Ben did not disappoint!!
tbh theres not many covers of this song i actually enjoy bc the original is just puuurfect.... however I WILL SAY that this version kept my attention the whole time bravisamooo
glad my nails are also gold as i'm watching this (thanx, algie) but less glad that i'm as hairy or more coz it's hot in the tropics anyhoo, always gorgeous singing!
he may be a nepo kid but the man can deliver. so fng talented. there can be no doubt he has trained hard. learned from his peers and works so damn hard. i salute ben.
@@puppyoverload5145 Nepotism. He has a parent in the biz and it gave him a leg up, but I usually am fine with it if the person is talented or makes use of the tools they were given to become more talented. The issue is when talented people get overlooked in favor of nepo kids. But some of the biggest talents in the world came from nepotism.
@@NoFirstNoLastName you have no idea how happy I am to finally see someone who is objective about this😭 I’m so sick of people pretending they’re “fighting for social justice” when they’re actually just trolls
Yeah, one of the best vocal talents in decades and some doofus types just can't help but their off key warble to that amazing voice. Of course, keep in mind there have been performances of musical theater that have had to be stopped so that an announcement could be made telling members of the audience that's not appropriate to sing along.
There seems to be a lot of love for Platt's rendition but for me it's not a patch on Shoshana Bean version on broadwaycom. She acts out the song brilliantly.
@@MichaelHammond oh I think I saw that already ty for sharing though and I know they sang.carpool karaoeke..but I thought She and Ben Co wrote a song together not just performed together when he said they collaborated..and I believe Ben wrote this song by himself or without her...
It's not simple to say Most days I don't recognize me These shoes and this apron That place and its patrons Have taken more than I gave 'em It's not easy to know I'm not anything like I used to be Although it's true I was never attention sweet center I still remember that girl She's imperfect but she tries She is good but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up And baked in a beautiful pie She is gone but she used to be mine It's not what I asked for Sometimes life just slips in through a back door And carves out a person And makes you believe it's all true And now I've got you And you're not what I asked for If I'm honest I know I would give it all back For a chance to start over And rewrite an ending or two For the girl that I knew Who be reckless just enough Who can hurt but Who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised And gets used by a man who can't love And then she'll get stuck and be scared Of the life that's inside her Growing stronger each day 'Til it finally reminds her To fight just a little To bring back the fire in her eyes That's been gone but it used to be mine Used to be mine She is messy but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone but she used to be mine
I love love love Ben's voice, however...he could chill on the vibrato. BUT he did this perfectly, I've seen a lot of covers since I love this song and most people don't do it right. He did it exactly right.
It takes some serious "Cojones" to try a part made for a woman and Make it Work........yet, again, example.......Ben.......one has to 'give into' a Role, an interpretation .......and GIVE IN........Job Well Done.....;)......
Never ever sing along unless the performer asks you to. It's insulting to pay to hear a fantastic musician only to hear the off key teeny boppers beside you.
I just don't think he's THAT good. There are much more talented people who don't get the break he had just because their dads aren't big time hollywood and broadway producers like his dad is. His voice is honestly just meh. If you had no clue who Ben Platt was and heard it for the first time, you might not care for it.
Are you KIDDING? I know opinions differ but he has one of those voices that you have to be deaf to not understand how incredible it is. How many times have you hear him sing?????
@@luna-mo3ol Many times. You don't need to watch him to hear that he carries vocal tension in the neck. His dad is the producer of Wicked, other Broadway shows and plenty of Hollywood. His job was to condition you into thinking he's one of the best. He has succeeded with you.
@@cloudambient Dude, his dad has absolutely nothing to do with this. Stop. I didn't even know about his dad when I found out about Ben and his voice. He's clearly got an incredible voice and if his dad wasn't famous then you would probably think so too. You're only using his dad as an excuse to hate on him. Get a life.
I was in the Seattle concert. Watching him live was a blessing and one of the best experiences in my life.

He has one of the most beautiful vibratos Ive heard
oh my.
Man when he sang it in Atlanta I cried. I couldn’t help it his voice it’s gorgeous
HIS RIFF AT 3:36 MADE ME FALL OUT OF MY CHAIR (literally just rewatching it over and over rn)
I’ve seen this song performed hundreds of times over the years on TH-cam.
From 3:36 I was almost moved to tears with how he sang this.
Incredible performance & rendition of this song.
@@seanzealony9499 Imagine being IN THE ROOM! SIGH... so beautiful!
The boy can sing.
lol.
ok the vocals had me amazed...but can we talk about the DRIP???? Those nails??? That shirt and chest hair COMBO????? dayum
👏👏👏
I am so happy because I am living in his era . God bless Ben . What a voice
Instantly crying!!!!! What kind of magic power does this man possess? He’s an angel 😭
I got to see him in "Parade" after this! WOW! He is amazing.
Omg wow. Just wow. Even more potent that I feel in love with Sarah Bareilles’s first album the year my first daughter was born and I was 23. And that daughter introduced me to the musically that is Ben Platt. Nobody expels such emotion in their vocals as that man. 👏👏👏👏👏👏
Ben truly is a powerhouse
The best version I’ve heard for this song. Damn that’s beautiful
Absolutely stunning, love his rendition, brilliant. Thanks for sharing it.
You are VERY welcome!
Im not a huge fan of him….yet I can NOT deny that his voice is friggin perfection.
Hmm, curious, if you like his voice, why not a fan?
I WAS THERE FOR THIS!!!
One of the most important voices in the world right now. He deserves more success
I could listen to this for the rest of my life.
3:50 the thumbnail shot is SO epic
I screenshot the perfect moment! ❤️
So flawlessly performed.
He was so wonderful that night. LOVE HIM
What a beautiful voice!! I love the song. I've listened to Sara & then Katherine McPhee, then wanted to hear a males take on it & Ben did not disappoint!!
Amazing!!! Not surprised at all 💞🤩 also give Matt Zarley Listen 🎶 love his so much!!!
Jeremy Jordan does great too, even better imo. Both are awesome.
I'm speechless!!!! And in tears
wow. just the right amount of vibrato to carry the emotions across. well-spaced and well-placed. so magnificent!❤
His voice is a force! Magnificent! It’s what I would expect to hear God like singing 😂 He gives me goosebumps every time!
I cried twice
I wish he release a reprised version of this 🙏🙏🙏🙏
the greatest rendition
Beautiful rendition
Fantastic!
can't wait for his next tour I missed this one! so bummed I bet it was absolutely incredible in person
Woow I love this it gave me chills
I always adore his voice af
INCREDIBLE
This has been on freaking repeat for more than a week!!! 🥰 In love!
WOW ,WOW ,WOW!! BEN!!😊
Right!?
he's so amazing ugh, i hope i can see him live someday!
Love the voice Ben!
Totally gorgeous.....but I could do without the theatre kids feeling the need to sing along full voice when they all paid good money to hear Ben!
Yes that’s the only reason I don’t want to go to a concert😭 you can’t even hear the performer when you’re in the audience
Totally agree
Meh, let people have their fun.
Love him so much❤
tbh theres not many covers of this song i actually enjoy bc the original is just puuurfect.... however I WILL SAY that this version kept my attention the whole time bravisamooo
I think Jeremy Jordan's is quite fantastic as well!
@@kiarar3988And I think Jeremy has done it much earlier. And yes, Jeremy's version is full of emotions that go along his impressive range.
I love him
WHOA!! Hopefully he will record it at some point...
Hearing this when he preformed it live I was just weeping. 🤍
glad my nails are also gold as i'm watching this (thanx, algie) but less glad that i'm as hairy or more coz it's hot in the tropics
anyhoo, always gorgeous singing!
Deus abençoe sua voz e sua interpretação, sua linda impressão desta música... é um enorme prazer te ouvir e ver sua interpretação única! ❤😍👏🏼
WOW🤩…MULTIPLE CHILLS…!!!
Damn. Just beautiful.
Unbelievable talent ❤ my daughter sings this and just makes you feel every word ❤
I would love to hear your daughter sing!
2 of my fav people..Ben Platt and Sara Barellies
I love his voices & his rendition plus this song first time i heard Sarah Bareilles sung it
i want more than anything to see him live
you are so good!
So wonderful ✨✨✨✨✨💗
Waiting for the studio version, please!
he may be a nepo kid but the man can deliver. so fng talented. there can be no doubt he has trained hard. learned from his peers and works so damn hard. i salute ben.
Nepo?

This dude......dayyumm
Right!?
So glad I was there to see this!
Voice is flawless, note for note the Shoshana Bean version.
oh wow, I didnt know him but I love him! Amazing vocals. Wikipedia is showing we share the same birthdate, cool
Fu@× yes! Amazing 👏
❤❤❤❤
WOW
como um dia eu pude ousar dizer que sou cantor?
3:48 same vocal run from “You Will Be Found” what a pro
Nice 😍😍
Wow
I want to see him in real life!! Amazing.
Has ruined all other renditions for me, truly amazing
HOW DO I KEEP DISCOVERING ALL MY FAVORITE ACTORS SINGING THIS SONG WTF
Please lower the caps and be more respectful.
Can someone please explain why people in the audience can't just LISTEN and not scream or sing along? It's annoying as hell
Yeah, one of the best vocal talents in decades and some doofus types just can't help but their off key warble to that amazing voice.
Of course, keep in mind there have been performances of musical theater that have had to be stopped so that an announcement could be made telling members of the audience that's not appropriate to sing along.
I don't know him, I'm French, that's may be why. Love Jeremy Jordan's interpretation but Ben is fantastic too.
It makes me sick how good he is
🥰😍
There seems to be a lot of love for Platt's rendition but for me it's not a patch on Shoshana Bean version on broadwaycom. She acts out the song brilliantly.
When When did they collaborate? On what music? And why didn't he sing that?

It's not simple to say
Most days I don't recognize me
These shoes and this apron
That place and its patrons
Have taken more than I gave 'em
It's not easy to know
I'm not anything like I used to be
Although it's true
I was never attention sweet center
I still remember that girl
She's imperfect but she tries
She is good but she lies
She is hard on herself
She is broken and won't ask for help
She is messy but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up
And baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone but she used to be mine
It's not what I asked for
Sometimes life just slips in through a back door
And carves out a person
And makes you believe it's all true
And now I've got you
And you're not what I asked for
If I'm honest I know I would give it all back
For a chance to start over
And rewrite an ending or two
For the girl that I knew
Who be reckless just enough
Who can hurt but
Who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised
And gets used by a man who can't love
And then she'll get stuck and be scared
Of the life that's inside her
Growing stronger each day
'Til it finally reminds her
To fight just a little
To bring back the fire in her eyes
That's been gone but it used to be mine
Used to be mine
She is messy but she's kind
She is lonely most of the time
She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie
She is gone but she used to be mine
Who is this guy?
Does anyone onow where he gets these silk shirts?!
They’re probably made for him!
Can anyone tell me what key he sings in?
I love love love Ben's voice, however...he could chill on the vibrato. BUT he did this perfectly, I've seen a lot of covers since I love this song and most people don't do it right. He did it exactly right.
what key is this??
The key of impossible.
@@sidneeto8672 this comment sent me. you’re so right.
2024 barely able to type the fact.
I adore him. I just wish he wouldn't throw away the endings to his MOMENTS. He loves to run down etc. I love him tho.
Go tf off bro!! Kilt that shit
Anyone know what key is singing this in?
D-Major (F# & C#), hope this helps!
The most incredible versions of this song that I've heard seem to be sung by gay men. There seems to be a special connection.
i want to hear Sia sing this

Audience is too disruptive...we want to hear the artist not the damn Audience...so rude.

why does he kinda look like charlie puth with heavy facial hair?
Lol I mean barely
Never ever sing along unless the performer asks you to. It's insulting to pay to hear a fantastic musician only to hear the off key teeny boppers beside you.
The voice is truly amazing, but I really dislike those fingernails!
👏👏👏🌈💜🙏
SO EFFORTLESS!!
Not bad but there's something missing for me in his tone and delivery. Seems forced. Just doesn't resonate.
eww
