OK you have a great voice BUT HOLY CRAP YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE SO AMAZING OH MY GOD. And how you did "I will kill your friends and family to remind you of my love" had me doubled over laughing. GREAT JOB
You nailed it. One of the hardest things for performers to do is to stand still. When you do it makes everything a bit more powerful and you did that very well.
That is part of the humor, I think.. Here we have this guy singing a bubbly love song and you imagine him dancing around and jumping up and down (I know I did when I first listened to it), when in reality it's a stoic monarch singing about not wanting to let go of his power over a rebelling country, and willing to "kill your friends and family" to keep things from changing. God, gotta love Lin Manuel... Groff (the original King George), moves around even less then Gabriel did here. He stays pretty still during most of his performance (in part thanks to the heavy crown he used to wear in the beginning) which only makes parts like "and you can't go ooooooon!" and the final giggle in "I Know Him" even funnier, because they stand out -- almost like a break in character, but not xD
Oh my gosh this was literally amazing he captured King George's spirit so well as the comedic relief in the play and he was great and ah I just love this
this was actually really good, have you considered auditioning for the National Tour? even though its unlikely hardly anybody will get in, its still worth a try, and you are very good!
+Ela K It's not highly unlikely. I know people who have been on Broadway tours (and I know one person who is currently on one.) A person like him, who is obviously a voice major in what is probably a BFA program at a university, is actually a great candidate for a Broadway tour, and there's a good chance that he'd actually make it, based on this performance. I know Hamilton is popular, and the competition is going to be fierce, but it actually wouldn't be a stretch for this young man to be a good candidate for this show (especially considering actors for the tours are changed out more often, and understudies/swings are necessary, and they'll probably double cast it, too.)
SunyiSideUp thats what i mean - there is a lot of competition. so much that i'd say 99% of people who audition are not likely to be even picks to be chosen, but this guy is going somewhere, in my opinioN!
sorry but i kinda call bull shit... at the start of the song king George isn't supposed to be condescending hes supposed to be calm and collected i don't think he would honestly be able to replace him but he did do amazing in this performance honestly so idk
God bless America this is what I strive for as a performer. I am honestly thrilled that he absolutely killed this song. It has to be my favorite from Hamilton the Musical and I love watching others perform it. Thank you for being so talented.
I don't know if there is a larger crowd, but at my school, I know of about 6-7 Hamilfans. So, if I did this, I would have at least 1 person yelling along. Just remember, be very energetic and pull the audience into the song.
This is phenomenal, it's so rare to find someone with your sense of the stage and audience, and with such a commanding presence onstage. Well done for being a real talent :)
This is absolutely fabulous, well done! I don't understand how anybody clicked the dislike button unless they were drunk. Honestly, this is one of the best renditions of the song I've ever heard. This really brightened up my day, thank you.
As I am watching this, I was rendered speechless and into a fit of giggles at the sheer awesomeness of this performance. I applaud you, and you certainly captivated the audience... I've never seen a person perform this well, ever...
If this was a presentation during your senior recital, you must be graduating. It's a delightful performance. "Lucky Penny" with Mr. Autrey was equally amusing. Best wishes for a bright and happy future. I hope to be seeing you on Broadway.
Okay, that was hilarious and amazing! Me being an actress myself know it is hard to stand still or fit the expression just right for comedic feeling, you did absolutely PERFECT!!!! I love this song and was thinking of doing it and now that i found this i have a brilliant example to meet with. Once again Amazing!
Love this! Really really love this! As my old choir teacher put it, singing a song isn't just about singing a song. It's about telling a story in which you not only use your voice, but facial expressions as well and actually put life into the song. You my friend, did exactly just that. Your facial expressions were spot on, my favorite part was at the end where you got everyone singing along!
What a great performance. Wonderfully sung, brilliantly acted and I loved the characterisation you brought through phrasing combined with facial expressions!
I just love how he just stands there most of the song and sometimes moves slightly and makes those facial expressions, its amazing, 'cause he really sells the crazy!
This kid's got a future. As Neil Patrick Harris said in the opening number of the 2013 Tonys, speaking of Broadway performers, "We WERE that kid." I wish this guy nothing but success, whether he sticks with theater or not.
Oh, and it should not be lost that he made us believe he was the King of England while wearing a flannel shirt under a silk robe. But such are the budgets of school musicals. But the guy rocked it.
It's very rare that you find a student performing something so good from a musical like this. Amazing!!!
Absolutely brilliant!
same..
Yeah! Also the fact that you literally have over 1K likes and 2 comments now 3
stayed 3 for 3 more@@grayson8206
He's a natural performer
OMG, I love your profile picture!

Ohmygosh Hamilton, sir. I thought you were dead? :O
a great compliment coming from Alexander 👌😂
OOOOHMYGOD LET GET THIS GUY IN FRONT OF A CROWD!!!!
I KNOW RIGHT!! 😂
I see what you did there xD
that reference ties in so well with everything, you have all my applause.
Ha.. Ha.. Ha.. This comment section gives me life.
+Pandapancakes aj This comment section kills me
OK you have a great voice BUT HOLY CRAP YOUR FACIAL EXPRESSIONS ARE SO AMAZING OH MY GOD. And how you did "I will kill your friends and family to remind you of my love" had me doubled over laughing. GREAT JOB
Kate McCarthy Jim where's Pamela ?
Kate McCarthy that was hilarious
Btw love ur picture john kransinski is such a hawty
The way he paused there, unlike in the original production, was brilliant. Great delivery.
WHEN THE CROWD JOINED IN I JOINED IN TOO
same!!
You nailed it. One of the hardest things for performers to do is to stand still. When you do it makes everything a bit more powerful and you did that very well.
My parrot started screaming along when the crowd joined in😂
That's hilarious
Valerie Woodside i laughed so hard at this HAHAAH
I want a parrot now
XD
You know a performance is great when a parroquia joins in

Same
Mine too, and I don't know why I love it when it's so irrelevant compared to the other songs
Same.
Zoe Pirate It's just really catchy and fun!
Kerry Fraser same and Aaron burr
Idk who you are but i love you.
PulseMusic413 😂😂😂😂
That laugh at the end was almost as unexpected as him actually being a really solid singer who did that song better than most people would
Just like everyone else:
OMG voice and
OMG facial expressions!
THIS GUY'S VOCALS ARE SERIOUSLY UNDERESTIMATED
Who exactly is underestimating them?
okay but this guy actually looks like king george????
Okay yes but, why?
Okay yes but, why Bizarre, I know.
This song really sounds more like it should be performed dancing around the stage wildly
i agree
Yep especially the part when he say la la la la
Yeah but it actually sounds like its a pretty hard song to sing well :)
Saw it live and this is actually very similar to how Groff performs it. This guy did an excellent job :D

Simone O'Neal it's also the other people who tried out for king George and didn't make it
One of them is Lafayette
HE PLAYED THE KING SO WELL
Oh my gosh this was literally amazing he captured King George's spirit so well as the comedic relief in the play and he was great and ah I just love this

E K what’s a national tour?
I can so see Tom Hiddleston dressing as Loki and doing it this way X). This was so funny and amazingly sung!
OH YES THAT WOULD BE PERFECT
I didn't think I'd listen to the whole thing but damn. good job.
That little giggle at the end was wonderful.

Honey, you should see me in a crown.
You nailed the sass before you even started singing...this is amazing.
the choices with the expressions and body language and stuff were so great. hilarious
This guy felt like a mix of King George and Joffrey from Game Of Thrones. Awesome song sung by an awesome actor!
He performs this absolutely flawlessly
My god. You have so much talent. The facial expressions and movements really add so much more to this performance. Great Job.
OH MY GOSH! He does SUCH a good job with this!
Such talent!
Dude you could so replace the current king geogre when he retires.
sorry but i kinda call bull shit... at the start of the song king George isn't supposed to be condescending hes supposed to be calm and collected i don't think he would honestly be able to replace him but he did do amazing in this performance honestly so idk

You made him look like he was using America as a beard. And it's PERFECT
this man's voice and expressions are gold!

God bless America this is what I strive for as a performer. I am honestly thrilled that he absolutely killed this song. It has to be my favorite from Hamilton the Musical and I love watching others perform it. Thank you for being so talented.
I want to sing this at my school talent show but I'm scared that when I yell "everybody" no one will sing
- studylog - I WILL COME TO UR SCHOOL AND SING ALONG AS LOUD AS I CAN
I don't know if there is a larger crowd, but at my school, I know of about 6-7 Hamilfans. So, if I did this, I would have at least 1 person yelling along. Just remember, be very energetic and pull the audience into the song.
I've probably tapped the replay button so many times it will start demanding payment. I love this
I can't stop watching this magnificent performance. His face is priceless.
the sasssss killed me! loved it
it made me so happy at the amount of people that started singing when he said “everybody”
This man has so much stage presence, it's a pleasure to watch him!
This is phenomenal, it's so rare to find someone with your sense of the stage and audience, and with such a commanding presence onstage. Well done for being a real talent :)
Perfectly fabulous XD
This is absolutely fabulous, well done! I don't understand how anybody clicked the dislike button unless they were drunk. Honestly, this is one of the best renditions of the song I've ever heard. This really brightened up my day, thank you.
And I honestly wish I could like this video over and over again.
Crowd in the palm of your hand. Absolutely fantastic!
OH MY GOD THIS IS AMAZING I AM OBSESSED WITH THIS
SLAYYYYYYYY
This guys so natural at performing! This is unreal , just the right voice to make it in musical theatre! I hope he goes far!
You should be on Broadway or at least on the tour, dude.
That was incredible! XD
Rocked it. Absolutely killed it. The giggle at the end was perfection. Bravo!
I don't know what I loved more: your belt or the giggle at the end
As I am watching this, I was rendered speechless and into a fit of giggles at the sheer awesomeness of this performance. I applaud you, and you certainly captivated the audience... I've never seen a person perform this well, ever...
I could see him on Broadway! He actually put the character's feeling in! SO talented! Awesome!
the facial expressions are everything. AUDITION FOR THE NATIONAL TOUR!
If this was a presentation during your senior recital, you must be graduating. It's a delightful performance. "Lucky Penny" with Mr. Autrey was equally amusing. Best wishes for a bright and happy future. I hope to be seeing you on Broadway.
Okay, that was hilarious and amazing! Me being an actress myself know it is hard to stand still or fit the expression just right for comedic feeling, you did absolutely PERFECT!!!! I love this song and was thinking of doing it and now that i found this i have a brilliant example to meet with. Once again Amazing!
this student did amazing, I was blown away at this performance. very good
So good! The little laugh at the end killed me! Absolutely incredible!
WOW! I met you when I auditioned for BW back in January and I am so glad I came across this video and finally got to hear you sing! :D Amazing!!
I've not seen anything better than his facial expressions and stage presence oh my!
Ooooh this young man has a future in musical theatre - his facial expressions were spot on!
Perfect! He nailed it. I can tell he put lots of practice and work into this. Amazing job.
Love this! Really really love this! As my old choir teacher put it, singing a song isn't just about singing a song.
