- Hollywood in Vienna 2022 features works from legendary composer Alan Menken and honored him with the Max Steiner Award.
Proud Of Your Boy was composed by Alan Menken but never made it in to the animated movie. It was later adapted for the Broadway Musical. It was performed by the original Aladdin from Broadway Adam Jacobs and the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchester at Wiener Konzerthaus.

Adam just brought Alan to tears with Menken's own music. That's when you know you've made it.
I'm certain that had a lot to do with it, but somewhere over the years I picked up the alleged fact that this was one of the last songs he wrote with Howard, and fought for it to be included in the film after his death, but got overruled. (Theater nerd that I am, I think Howard would have won that fight and we'd all be better for it, but that's just a sentimental guess.) If that's true, I'm sure that would influence my response if I were him. Not to take anything away from Adam, who is killer here as he is in pretty much everything,
Alan wiping his tears during and at the end of the performance said it all 😊👍
I cry when Adam Jacobs sings, too. One of the best voices in the business. And Alan Menken deserves every ounce of this tribute - musical genius. 🥰
@@lianeharper8106 I saw him live in Aladdin in Toronto before he went to sing that in NY.
@@pianowil - I saw him in Aladdin as well out here in CA at the Pantages. Just perfect. Gotta say, he’s my favorite musical theatre voice, with Jeremy Jordan right behind.
I think the song has a special place in Menkens heart. I love this song too. It is a shame that it wasn't included in the movie!
This one really show's off Menken's style. The bridge certainly sounds a lot like the bridge in Santa Fe from Newsies.
This man born to be disney’s singer. Every disneys song, well suited for him. Excellent
Alright Adam!! I love his voice from Proud Of Your Boy as Disney Aladdin.
what a VOICE
In June of 2020, I was supposed to perform as Aladdin in a local production of Aladdin Jr. featuring people with special needs, but due to COVID, it’s now happening in March of 2023. This was one of the songs I was hoping to sing in the show, but we’re doing the original version, which is based more on the movie than the Broadway show. Prior to getting cast as Aladdin, I had never gotten a lead role in a show before, so that meant a lot to me. I know both Adam would be so proud, but not as proud as my mom will be when she sees me on the magic carpet.
Congratulations, I'm sure you will be great !
Congratulations!!! If you can't sing the song on the show, then perhaps you can sing it for your Mom when you get home from your performance. I'm sure she'll love it!!! Big hugs!!!
congrats! i’m very proud of u ❤
Update: The show went really well and got rousing standing ovations all three nights. Thank you all for your kind words!
Wow! That’s epic! Congratulations 🎉❤😊
Who else sobs when you hear this song..?
That would be me
Hard not to think of my own mom. Tears every time.
Apparently even Alan weeps at it, and he WROTE IT. 😊
I love him! He's amazing!
Excellent! This song gives me the chills and positive energy.

You cant sing it better, absolutly beautiful🤩
Proud of your boy
I'll make you proud of your boy
Believe me, bad as I've been, ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise
I've wasted time
I've wasted me
So say I'm slow for my age
A late bloomer, okay, I agree
That I've been one rotten kid
Some son, some pride and some joy
But I'll get over these lousin' up
Messin' up, screwin' up times
You'll see, ma, now comes the better part
Someone's gonna make good cross his stupid heart
Make good and finally make you
Proud of your boy
Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer
You won't get a fight here, no, ma'am
Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good
But that couldn't be all that I am
Water flows under the bridge, let it pass
Let it go
There's no good reason that you should believe me, not yet
I know, but
Someday and soon
I'll make you proud of your boy
Though I can't make myself taller
Or smarter or handsome or wise
I'll do my best, what else can I do?
Since I wasn't born perfect like dad or you
Mom, I will try to try hard to make you
Proud of your boy
That was absolutely gorgeous.
What a king🥲
これ本当に素敵何だか泣ける
Amazing!
😍
How in the world do you follow that? Good luck to whomever was next.
Good thing it was the final performance for that show 😅
The beautiful irony, is that the next person up was Alan himself 😂
