"Broadway, Here I Come!" I'm high above the city I'm standing on the ledge The view from here is pretty And I step off the edge And now I'm fallin', baby Through the sky, through the sky And I'm fallin', baby through the sky It's my callin', baby Don't you cry, don't you cry And I'm fallin' down through the sky Toward the street that I'm from Oh, Broadway, here I come Broadway, here I come The pressure it increases The closer that I get I could almost go to pieces But I'm not quite there yet See, I've been bravin' crazy weather Drownin' out my cries I pull myself together I'm focused on the prize I'm fallin', baby Through the sky, through the sky I'm fallin', baby through the sky It's my callin', baby Don't you cry, don't you cry 'Cause I'm fallin' down through the sky And it's a tune you can hum Oh, Broadway here I come Mmmmmmmm Will I remain the same Or will I change a little bit? Will I feel broken or totally complete? Will I retain my name when I'm the biggest, hugest hit? Or will I blend in with the rest of the street The people all are pointing I bet they'd never guess That the saint that they're anointing Is frightened of the mess But even though I fear it I'm playin' all my cards... Baby, you are gonna hear it When I give them my regards I'm fallin' baby Through the sky, through the sky Now I'm fallin', baby through the sky It's my callin', baby Don't you cry, don't you cry And I'm fallin' down through the sky And I refuse to go numb Oh, Broadway here I come Broadway, here I come Broadway, here I come Oh, Broadway, Broadway, here I come Here I come! And the last thing I hear As the impact grows near Is it a scream or a cheer? Well, never mind, I'll never find out 'Cause Broadway I am here
I swear if he ducks out him and Virgil better have a moment since Virgil understands what it’s like to feel useless and was most likely insecure. Also why has Thomas not picked up on Romans insecurities, you think he would feel it or something
Exactly! Now there is some new show called "Dracula", trying to come up with shows that are already created on different networks will not bring in bigger reviews.. Silly NBC!
This song is awful. The melody is okay but the lyrics are so unbelievably terrible. Compare this to Stephen Schwartz, Sondheim, or any other significant lyric writer.. these are 2/10. Bland, redundant metaphors. Non-sensical logic.. Cringe.
"Now it's he and not you Who is stuck with a shoe In a stew, in the goo And I've learned something, too Something i never knew On the steps of the palace"- Stephen Sondheim. Not every lyric has to be amazingly poetic....
although this is the original version, i would recommend listening to the George Salazar and Joe Iconis version, it seems to tell the story of the song a bit better
Not every song has to have lyrical brilliance. The simplicity of the lyrics allows for the melody to tell the story, which isn't all that complicated. It's a suicide note full of double meanings, so while the lyrics aren't deep at face value they do have meaning.
This version really gives me chills! Can't stop listening to it!
Taime Natti Same here
"Broadway, Here I Come!"
I'm high above the city
I'm standing on the ledge
The view from here is pretty
And I step off the edge
And now I'm fallin', baby
Through the sky, through the sky
And I'm fallin', baby through the sky
It's my callin', baby
Don't you cry, don't you cry
And I'm fallin' down through the sky
Toward the street that I'm from
Oh, Broadway, here I come
Broadway, here I come
The pressure it increases
The closer that I get
I could almost go to pieces
But I'm not quite there yet
See, I've been bravin' crazy weather
Drownin' out my cries
I pull myself together
I'm focused on the prize
I'm fallin', baby
Through the sky, through the sky
I'm fallin', baby through the sky
It's my callin', baby
Don't you cry, don't you cry
'Cause I'm fallin' down through the sky
And it's a tune you can hum
Oh, Broadway here I come
Mmmmmmmm
Will I remain the same
Or will I change a little bit?
Will I feel broken or totally complete?
Will I retain my name when I'm the biggest, hugest hit?
Or will I blend in with the rest of the street
The people all are pointing
I bet they'd never guess
That the saint that they're anointing
Is frightened of the mess
But even though I fear it
I'm playin' all my cards...
Baby, you are gonna hear it
When I give them my regards
I'm fallin' baby
Through the sky, through the sky
Now I'm fallin', baby through the sky
It's my callin', baby
Don't you cry, don't you cry
And I'm fallin' down through the sky
And I refuse to go numb
Oh, Broadway here I come
Broadway, here I come
Broadway, here I come
Oh, Broadway, Broadway, here I come
Here I come!
And the last thing I hear
As the impact grows near
Is it a scream or a cheer?
Well, never mind, I'll never find out
'Cause Broadway I am here
I still don't understand how a show that is so loved can be cancelled.
Cause Debra's character was SUCKING the life and storylines out of the entire thing.
@@dietdrpepper15 Well I guess I can't really argue that.

Is there anywhere that this can be downloaded as an mp3? On the soundtrack it's just Jeremy Jordan singing this, but I like the entire cast version
I loved this show, the only thing coming close with some singing, great voices is Nashville, so now I am stuck on this, but really miss Smash.

Congrats your opinion is controversial and you've teased your vast musical knowledge. You're extremely edgy and cool. Gratified enough yet?
"Now it's he and not you
Who is stuck with a shoe
In a stew, in the goo
And I've learned something, too
Something i never knew
On the steps of the palace"- Stephen Sondheim. Not every lyric has to be amazingly poetic....
They didn’t write it 👍🏼
