great performance. few little mistakes but you pulled it through big complaint: the "you find the box that's gay and crush it" bit could be just a little bit longer and more angryer. it's supposed to be a sudden change of character. exaggerate it. otherwise, well done guys! ^-^
I agree a bit slower and that pause between the box that's gay....AND CRUSH IT really makes it more impactful. Although it's really good the broadway cast makes it seem easy but the book of mormon is a very interesting musical with the way the songs where written and there are so many places it can be tricky.
+Gabzo Avro I'm not gonna pretend I am a professional singer (I am amatur) and BoM has very difficult songs in it (I Believe, anyone?) honestly my complaints are really just... we'll day pet peeves in music XD
TheAllRoundNerd yeah like I said I agree lol. I was surprised at how everything was so well made in this musica. Now next year the broadway road tour.. should be passing CLOSE to my home town ( a few hours drive) so *fingers crossed *
I agree that "chrush it part" should be more angrier and flipped. It's clearly meant to show people how disturbed is to suppress someone so much and how much damaged he is by "crushing" a part of himself. But this play is a very nice attempt from young boys, not professionals. We don't know the sexuality of the boy who performed that part, so if he is straight its not easy to "feel" this part.
*gives a standing ovation * YES YES YAAAAAAAAAAAASSSSSSSSSS!!! OH MY GOD, these boys are amazing!! This is one of the BEST covers I've seen for this song. And the guy that opened sounds just like the original Elder McKinley on Broadway. Amazing job, boys :)
No matter which performance it is, my favorite thing about this song is always watching the ensemble during Elder McKinley's part.
The guy who plays elder McKinley started talking and I was just like
This guy is perfect for the part

elder mckinley was sharp the whole time but it was still amazing
One of the best out there!!! Thanks!
Whoa, talented. Very, very talented!
Such talented boys! Such a nice performance.
I wish greek schools would have things like that :(
Bit of overacting by the first guy, but great job!

That's the first amateur performance I've seen that has had legit tap. I'm impressed
did the pianist go faster than the original song? cuz if so you guys didn't seem stressed at all.
What a treat! Well done! Hats 🎩 off to the choreographer.
The guy in the beginning reminds me of Rory O'Mally. Loved it!
elder mckinley was a little too campy imo, put too much emphasis on sounding goofy over singing well
This is a *blessing* thank God for this.If only there were more people who would do stuff like this,especially the dudes...
i love this!!!!
This was probably one of the best amateur performances of this song I've seen omg the tap was so good honestly
I love watching the ensamble for this song.
That was so awesome.
So good!
I love this
