Will I, Santa Fe, I'll Cover You, Christmas Bells - 8/8/10 - RENT at the Hollywood Bowl
Aaron Tveit and Vanessa Hudgens plus ensemble - (the very end of) "Another Day" Aaron Tveit, David Burtka, ensemble - "Will I?" Wayne Brady, Telly Leung, ...
@MiaMontez94 I thought Another Day was better than Out Tonight for
Vanessa's vocals, but I think pairing her with a singer like Aaron Tveit
(or pretty much any other Broadway actor) is just asking for trouble. ;)
You can see the first part of the song in my previous upload, though.
THANK YOU!!! I have been looking for David Burtka singing "Will I" I kept
reading that he did a wonderful job, but I couldn't find it anywhere. David
sounds great. No wonder bloggers kept writing about it. It was such a short
solo, but had an impact.
@casy47 I'm sorry, but i don't have time to cut out individual songs upon
request. You can rip the video if you wish, using websites like KeepVid and
Dirpy, then edit them however you'd like. :)
I know you asked this a while ago, but I'll still answer. Anyways, I think
that the reason they are singing off key is because they are being
sarcastic. Christmas bells are a sign of Christmas (obviously), which is a
time for peace & joy. But these people say the bells are ringing elsewhere.
Symbolically, this means that where these people are right now (and more
specifically, in their own lives), there is no peace or joy. They are
bitter & are mocking the joy Christmas is supposed to bring.
Skylar's reactions in this scene kill me. And I don't care what people
think I like Telly as Angel. I mean Telly may not be my FAVORITE Angel but
I still like him. And Wayne did an excellent job as Collins in my opinion.
Of course I have always thought Wayne Brady had an amazing voice.
As Angel, I think Telly has a great voice, but his acting seems a
little...off I guess. He doesn't seem like the spunky, flamboyant,
loveable, outgoing, humorous Angel I'm used to
THANKS SO MUCH FOR RECORDING AND POSTING THIS!! aaron is my fav roger, next
to adam of course, and this helped my discover skylar and telly and wayne!!
so thanks LOLOLOLOL
I noticed that people have been comparing Vanessa & Aaron's performances
together with the other actors that have portrayed Mimi & Roger in past
productions & mention their chemistry. I have to say, I had no idea who
Aaron Tveit was prior to watching him now as Roger, and he & Vanessa
surprisingly have amazing chemistry. And for someone who may not be as
seasoned as the other performers in this production, I think Vanessa
definitely held her own. I'm loving Aaron Tveit - I'm now a fan!
@iluvhwood Aaron and Vanessa's chemistry grew over the course of the
performances, but I've seen how amazing Aaron can be when he has incredible
chemistry with his costars (watch videos of him and Blake Lively or Kerry
Ellis or most of all Alice Ripley which is disturbing), that this was a bit
of a let down. I'd compare his chemistry with Vanessa to what he had with
America Ferrera, it was good but not as believable.
This is by far my favorite performance from Vanessa minus the over
exaggerated "Oh No" at the beginning she nailed everything about this song
from the vocals to the emotion. And this song was perfect for Aaron to show
off all his talents from strong vocals to emoting each word. I'm glad you
got a close up version of this. I've been dying to see one! You are my hero!
@SkylarAstinFan :D I'm excited to see the rest then! The majority of the
videos here are from a distance and shot either of the stage where you
can't see much or from the screen. The screen ones are great but your
videos are great because it's like you're actually watching it :D And the
audio is pretty good quality as well, which I love
I think they tried hard and I know they'll never beat the original movie
cast (I much rather Rose Dawson Sorry, I don't wanna spell her name wrong.
:S and Tracie ? Sorry again. ) She was in this production, wasn't she? :) I
don't hate Vanessa.. but I don't think she was the best choice for Mimi.
But I respect everyones point of view. xD
for me Vanessa is good just for children, I am schock about Nicol, she is
avesome, funny and she now correctly what she should be, the same Tracie
she is better then in film. but the dancers, and not 1st plan actors are
like trees, no acting just exist on stage! but i like this what make this 2
girls.
Wow, this Roger is a brilliant actor. Love his facial expressions; he
really looks like someone who's about to start a new relationship but is
hesitating and is nervous though he is really attracted to her but then he
finally goes for it. No Day But Today!
@themanderrlynn It's a stage performance. That's kind of the difference
between live and recording. It's hard to watch a bootleg of something that
you were supposed to be watching in person. Expressions have to be
exaggerated to transcend the space. :)
oh god she is sooo perfect.. and stop hating on her because of out
tonight... she was dancing and jumping around.. while singing.... YOU try
singing while running around and dancing -.- anyway.. she is the best
@DWSMusic93 Thank you. I bought the camera specifically for this, and
literally figured it out as I filmed. I didn't have any time to practice
with it, so the filming gets better over the 3 performances.
@beckyboston his name is aaron tveit and he is better live than here...saw
him live 3 time...wicked as fyiero next to normal as gabe and catch me if
you can as frank...he is absolutely brilliant
@SkylarAstinFan Your camera is amazing. Most people on here said that they
ended up running out of room on their cameras to even record a few songs.
Can't wait to see the rest of the songs :D
@SkylarAstinFan Haha well you did extremely well then :) Are you going to
upload the songs from all 3 nights? Or just from one show? Or is this all a
mixture of the 3? haha
I've said it before, but I have to say it again...you are amazing for
posting these :) Can't wait to see the rest! Did you get every song in the
show??
@snowleopardbabii Its around 1:57, its an awkward line, but she just over
does it.
Finale A, Your Eyes, Finale B
"Finale A" "Your Eyes" and "Finale B" from RENT at the Hollywood Bowl, August 6, 2010. Featuring Aaron Tveit, Skylar Astin, Vanessa Hudgens, Wayne Brady, ...
I cried the first time seening this on the 2005 movie, but now watching
this, I cried even more than I did then. Thank you for posting this! I wish
I had been able to be there. This really was amazing. Love the ensemble! I
wish there was a way to buy a recording of this production in its entirety.
I love everyone's performance in it! Neil Patrick Harris really outdid
himself! Love it! Props for my girl, Baby V! Thanks again for posting this!
Your Eyes sounded terrible! Aaron and the band didn't work together at all.
Awkward arrangement and he had awkward pitch and timing. Just seemed off.
Skyler is love though. Best part of this production... Well Skyler and
Nicole too. She was a big surprise as Maureen. Thank you SO much for
posting such brilliant videos. Would you consider uploading the full show
online somewhere like megaupload?
Thank you so much for posting all you have. I've enjoyed every single
second. Although, I so wished I could have experienced the magic up close.
I am thankful for this. :)
Several things: A. Apparently 1 person has never looked into someone's
eyes. B. They need to have a recording of this group. C. Vanessa Hudgens as
Mimi
All these silly RENTheads saying things like, "I love Rent, but this is
funny" and "How dare you? I love Rent!" . . . and worse, "Rent was a great
movie! Stop mocking it!" How about, "Rent was the best play ever, the movie
was sort of all right, AND this is the funniest damn thing I've seen in a
while." (that one is from me) Jeez, have you people never heard forbidden
broadway? You mock BECAUSE you love. :-) In summary: loved it. :-)
lol. this is like my favorite video in youtube. I signed up so I can just
say how amazing it was. You guys rock.. and any haters with this video are
pathetic and stupid =) I love rent and I don't think you guys disgraced it.
Great job.. make more videos.. you guys are all hot. =P
okay the guy playing mimi is hilarious. when he's holding up the candle its
like hes saying, "Take my candle, it's a sacrifice, oh mighty candle lord.
then he's like rolling around on the floor and trying to be sexy. and the
banana has heroin... haha... so funny...
I don't know why, but every time the "It blew out again?" "NO!" part comes
on, I die. I can't explain why that is the funniest part to me. Amazing in
every way. My friends and I now sing "Light My Candle" like this.
the banana returns! wow, these are awsome videos, everytime i watch this it
makes me laugh! all three of you are awsome, and i had the du du du part
stuck in my head for so long!
LMAO. you guys rock. and the music man is hilarious! i couldnt help but
concentrate on whether he was getting it right .. and he did.. the whole
way through! v funny. =]
I love this video. One of the best videos on youtube to me. I can't do
nothing... i have to laugh everytime i see this. Love you guys. U made my
day a lot of times.
i forgot to mention the random walking XD and the awqward(sp?) silence
between the music man and roger at the end haha. the whole thing had me in
stitches. lololol
LMFAO cant breathe can't breath... Luv your "moon" and "stash" Mimis
histarical as always Roger's actually not that bad... YOU ROCK THOSE
SUNGLASSES MUSIC MAN!!!
you know, this is an insult to the actors from the movie. even though most
people think its SO funny, seriuosly what is with that weird dancing and
high voice.
