- On November 12, 2014, Tony Award nominee Jeremy Jordan invited his 'Finding Neverland' co-star, Olivier Award winner Laura Michelle Kelly, to join him on-stage during the run of his debut solo show, "Breaking Character," at Feinstein's/54 Below.
The two sing "What You Mean To Me," a song the two had originated together in the American Repertory Theater production of "Finding Neverland" in Cambridge, MA during the summer of 2014. "What You Mean To Me" features music and lyrics by Gary Barlow and Eliot Kennedy, and the orchestration in this recording is by Benjamin Rauhala. The song would eventually be rewritten and reworked for Broadway, but here it is presented in its original form.
The band is led by music director Benjamin Rauhala, and features Justin Goldner on guitar, Charlie Rosen on bass, Shannon Ford on drums, and Alisa Horn on the cello.
i swear, Jeremy could have chemistry with a wooden chair. He looks like he's hopelessly in love with every one of his costars
lol this is so funny but you are not wrong...
I LOVE this comment, couldn’t have put it better myself! Such a talent xxxxx
😍🥰
True hams! The bestest! Thier real ones ...
I would only add that sometimes he drags out the end parts a tad, like liiiggghht.
Oh my god it's The Shirt™, this makes me so nostalgic
Same! I checked the show date in the description the moment it started playing 😂
I really don’t understand why he keeps being asked to do these roles but they don’t end up going with him for Broadway or for greatest showmen. He’s so incredibly talented I don’t get it
I don’t understand it either. He is so much more talented than both Zac Efron and Matthew Morrison.
@@kimberholmstrom127 Yes they want well known names for more sales, who cares about how well they can actually deliver the actual... "GOODS". Let's all root for Jeremy's Jam Sess Theater Company!!
It’s because Matthew was a big name in Glee and Hugh Jackman Wolverine etc, it’s such a shame as Jeremy is far better than them both.
If Jeremy Jordan held eye contact with me for that long and sang to me, I would melt 🥰
Still upset Jeremy never got to do Finding Neverland on broadway
I am very disappointed that Jeremy was not in the Broadway version cuz he is just amazing in this role. I hope to see him in an amzing production soon!
My all time favorite role of his. The A.R.T version of Finding Neverland was something special. So sad they made so many changes for Broadway.
I agree! The Broadway version was my introduction to musical theater which is what I want to do with my life now, but I think it would have been better with Jeremy.
Mine too. I was completely devastated to learn that Jeremy wasn't asked to go to Broadway. It was not the same show on that NY stage. When Jeremy and Laura performed at the A.R.T...there was this gorgeous chemistry. I agree with some of these comments that Jeremy is incredibly gifted, he really could have chemistry with anyone, anything. But the truth is, the Broadway show was s u c h a disappointment. I immediately regretted going to see that show. I must've watched the show at the A.R.T minimum 6 times. I would've gone to see more but the show sold out in a matter of days. Jeremy Jordan is an undeniably beautiful soul and deeply gifted. I too do not understand why he keeps getting offered to do some of these amazing roles and then....they just diss him by not keeping him on the project. It's such a loss for both the project and audiences around the world who know that Jeremy is an unparalleled artist. He deserves so much more than what he's been given. Much love and light to Jeremy, will always be one of his biggest fans
If I don’t see Jeremy and Ben live at some point I honestly don’t know what I’m going to do with myself
Jeremy Jordan makes an amazing romantic lead with his gorgeous vocals and amazing acting skills.
Laura Michelle Kelly's voice is gorgeous too.
The clinking of dinner eating goes well with this number.
I’m sitting in my room god only knows how many years after this yelling BOOOOOOO at my phone with the people there lol
Ok I literally LOVED jj as this role and I didn’t know until now that he didn’t leave the production on his own. HE WAS AMAZING OMG WHY??????? WHY ON EARTH WOULD YOU NOT WANT HIM TO CONTINUE!!!!! Matthew was good in the role as well don’t get me wrong, but Jeremy had me crying, and his acting was phenomenal. He should have continued.
Jer was ROBBED of this role, he is the most perfect J M Barrie
I saw Jeremy Jordan and I had to watch.
i was like: why does this have so little likes and comments?? and then i realized it was only just posted
This is definitely one of my all time favourite Jeremy Jordan roles❤️ so sad he didn‘t get the chance to performe this on broadway..
it's amazing how Jeremy manages to make his co-stars shine in their performances. Laura is wonderful but the way Jeremy sings makes the music and her voice even more beautiful. In addition to feeling the total freedom and comfort of your partners in voicing your voice at your side
Ben, being the real MVP with these random drops of concert videos. Love it! Such a shame that he didn't get to do this on Broadway.
it’s 3.25 am and 3 minutes after this was posted, i regret nothing
Can we talk about how amazing Is Laura Michelle Kelly? I cannot explain ti myself how she is possibly human.
Just saw JJ and Ashley perform this yesterday and it was beautiful. Wow 😭
The J.M.Barrie we all deserve
I would cry so much
I'm still hoping that one day we'll get a video of Jeremy singing "Neverland" as well! 💕
There are some out there!
What is this new verse I've never heard?! WOW UGH MY HEART
that verse was originally in the A.R.T production but they cut it for broadway
Oh My I love this version! It's so much different than the original Broadway recording. I had no idea this existed!
HE HAS NO RIGHT TO DO THIS TO ME EXCUSE ME NO HE'S TOO GOOD
ALL HAIL BENJI
It's Jeremy Jordan so I just had to click!
In love with them both❤️! Laura is absolutely stunning 🤩!
Notice me Ben!! You and Alex Lacamoire are the reasons I'm so inspired to learn piano!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Is there an album of Jeremy's version of Finding Neverland songs? I think the world needs some more of him.
And the Death Note the Musical Demo should be made available! It's fairly niche, but it's such an amazing soundtrack.
Thank you, Ben, for sharing these videos :)
OMGOMGOMGGGGGGGGGG
I love the end in this version of the song with the counterpoint. 💕
World stop robbing Jeremy Jordan of roles challenge 😀
Chills! Beautiful duet! And is that Laura Osnes laughing at 0:50??
It sounds like her
Anybody have the lyrics to this version? 🥺
James:
Standing here
All at once
All the words run dry
Sylvia:
Something changed
Can't explain
And I can't deny
James:
Turning in circles
And blurring the lines
The unspoken is calling us tonight
Both:
I won't lie
I'm a little bit frightend
Of my imagination
Swear I'll try
I'm feeling enlightened
Your my inspiration
We can fly if we want to
I promise that faith will give you wings
James:
Just take the second star on the right
Straight ahead till morning light
Both:
Just take the second star on the right
Straight ahead till morning light
James:
Close your eyes
When you dream
That’s where I will be
Sylvia:
Say it’s true
Say you do
Say you do believe
Both:
The greatest adventures
Are waiting so patiently (Are waiting)
The angels are calling us tonight
I won't lie
I'm a little bit frightend
Of my imagination
Swear I'll try
I'm feeling enlightened
Your my inspiration
We can fly if we want to
I promise that faith will give you wings
Just take the second star on the right
Straight ahead till morning light
Just take the second star on the right
Straight ahead till morning light
James:
Every word and every sentence
Doesn't seem to make a difference
Nothing can explain just what you mean to me
Sylvia:
Every shape and all the colors
All the love from all the lovers
Never could express just what you mean to me
Both:
Every instinct (Every shape)
Every feeling (Every breathless)
Breathless
All my senses reeling (All my senses reeling)
James:
Cannot even say just
Both:
What you mean to me
*at the same time*
Sylvia:
Turning in circles
And blurring the lines
James:
Every poem
From every poet
Every song and
Every sonnet
Never can deliver
What you mean to me
Both:
I won't lie
I'm a little bit frightend
Of my imagination
Swear I'll try
I'm feeling enlightened
Your my inspiration
We can fly if we want to
I promise that faith will give you wings
Just take the second star on the right
Straight ahead till morning light
Just take the second star on the right
Straight ahead till morning light
Every star thats ever fallen
Knows the way to where were going
Now I really know just what you mean to me
(Btw I did that all by ear so some of it might be wrong)
