    adam and anthony rocked this song, as always. :D they're simply phenomenal.

  • Saw them when they were here in San Diego for the RENT tour last year. Freakin' awesome. Just about lost it when they first entered the stage. Is it just me or have they not aged since RENT first came out?

  • @lecafetasse My thoughts exactly. They barely look any older.

  • @lecafetasse Yeah. They can also sing the exact same way. I saw them in May. We were listening to the soundtrack and we were all like "WOAAAAAAAH." when Tune Up #1 started.

  • i loved it :DDD

  • I love them so much.. so very much.. they are so amazing.

  • The best Mark and Roger there will ever be.

  • cant beat the originals

  • I personally prefer Anthony's voice over Adam's. But I was all like "Yay!" when I watched this. Adam does kinda ruin their harmony in the middle....

  • aww...i hate adams hair here..he luxe so much beta with long hair...but he's still foinalicious~~~~~

  • that is true

  • i think that the long hair was gd 4 the movie cos that helped create a character and made the character seem more realistic. it suited the character more...but now i dont think it matters that much! they r amazing singers and the film is AWSOME! luv it :) xxx

  • Adam is way better with the longer hair.

    Fuck, I tried singing this in my theater class with a pal, and we practiced for months and couldn't get it. These guys make it look so easy...

  • shitttttt! anthony's face at the enddddd! ahh he's so hot! and i love when he hits adam's arm. hahaha. i love themmmmm.

  • Love Anthony!!!! Yeahhh!!! :)))

  • adams face when he looks at the guy with the guitar is so funny lmao

  • i like adam in the movie rent with long hair.. oh well i guess

  • OMG Yes!! he looks way better in the movie with the longer hair! I love this movie and like during la vie boheme when he jumps the table ,I'm not sure if you've seen it, but his hair like fluffs or something O don't really have a word for it.... * caty *

  • the key change in this song is so intense, right after mark (anthony) says "I QUIT!". it gets me every time.

  • *sigh*

    Love them both:)

    So much talent between these two men.

  • u kno wats kinda ironic.... in rent mark is like the only 1 not gay or bi or a drugie or has AIDS but in real life he is gay! theres notthi wrong with tht i jsut think its ironic :]

  • Anthony's bi, just a heads up ;)

  • oh ok well i still love him lol :]

  • Benny's not gay nor does he have AIDS i believe.

  • well i mean like out of angel,collins,rodger,mimi,maur­een, and joanne

  • i like adams hair longer

  • adam winked at anthony at the end of the song. it's so cute. i luv them both soooo much!

  • I love them together. Best Mark & Roger, never to be outdone =]

  • this is not futuramarenthead, it's her friend. but WTF are u guys talking about? Anthony is friken hot, but his voice is CRAP compared to adam pascal!!

  • Ha, never! Ever! Their both talented but Anthony puts so much feeling and emotionn in it, gotta love his voice. Adam is good but I think he needs a little more feeling and emphasis.

  • What?? Anthony is amazing

  • ur SOOOO RIGHT! this is da real futuramarenthead, not her friend. and anthony IS amazing! better than adam

  • honestly, they both have AMAZING voices, but i prefer anthony's voice to adam's any day. he has so much PASSION when he sings, I LOVE IT! and i met him, he is like the nicest guy in da universe!

  • I Love both of their voices too.... but i dont think i could choose whos voice a like better!>?

  • am I the only person on earth who thinks Anthony Rapp is much more talented than Adam Pascal?

  • nope, but i might not be on "earth" cuz im on i-love-Anthony-Rapp-planet...b­ut yet...Anthony is a much better singer

  • ahha finally! I'm not alone

  • kinda but u gotta love adam. sexy voice, sexy face SEXY EVERYTHING!!

  • omg. isnt anothy like the CUTEST thing evaa???

  • heck yeah!!!

  • these two kick ass

  • OMFG I EFFING LOVE ADAM PASCAL'S VOICE, HE IS AMAZING AND I LOVE HIM TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH AND BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!! (anthony rapp is pretty darn amazing too) ^_^"

  • I LOVE ANTHONY RAPP! theres this guy at my school that looks a lot like him. especially when he puts on my glasses haha.

  • Amazing! I love them

  • My God, they sound purely amazing. :-)

  • I love Anthony. He's so hot!! He played Tony in "Dazed And Confused". He was so hot in that movie! I love that guy!!!

  • Omg I can't get over how amazing they are... !!!

  • Omg real good... anthony is sooooo hot!

  • i love how anthony pronounces the ca in america, he does it in this video and on the film but not on the soundtrack... i love it! love them!

  • Are they really touring and if so does anyone have dates?

  • Yes they are. Adam and Anthony will be on the 2009 tour. Dates haven't been announced yet.

  • SWEET!!!!!

  • nononoo come somewhere in MARYLAND lol. kidding just COME EVERYWHERE! :)

  • something i've noticed about these guys (particularly anthony) is that while some other performers when they sing a song for a performance (i.e. not actually as part of the show) they tend to just sing it as themselves or half in character, but anthony really gets into his character - he really sings as mark... that's what i love about his performances.

  • these two are AMAZING! I can't believe they're touring in 09! PLEASE come to Portland, guys!! <3

  • those two are the biggest talent on broadway!! i love them both!

  • anthony (and adam) i love you!

  • AHh i love these two!1 i saw them both on broadway..and met them afterwards...sooo down to earth

  • God I love Adams voice!! Its so powerful and u feel everything that he sings!

  • <333333333333

  • Yes!!! Two best actors ever!!!

  • Anthony Rapp is great! Got to love that duet- movie or musical version!

  • AAAAAAAAAH adam pascal!!!!!!!!! why didn't he keep that gorgeous hair???? oh, i think i died a little inside when i saw that beautiful pretty boy hair gone.

  • those were extensions

  • HE SHOULD HAVE KEPT THEM!!!!!!!!!! sorry, i'm a freak when it comes to long-haired guys with guitars. just ignore me.

  • No, they were not extensions. Don't spread rumours.

    That was his real hair. He has said so, himself. You can also see the growth of his hair for the filming of the movie in YouTube videos, and pictures, from his "Civilian" CD release concert at Joe's Pub in New York.

  • Sheesh, WMS, they were NOT extensions. Where the f*ck do you get your info?

    Adam has stated that he grew his hair long, after consulting with the movie director (Chris Columbus) about Roger's state of mind, leading up to his introduction.

    You can see the hair growth in videos of Adam's "Civilian" CD release concert at Joe's Pub, in New York. Look up when "Civilian" was released.

  • No, it was his real hair... He said in the commentary that he hated it long, because unless he blow-dried it, it curled all wrong.

  • hahaha he sounds like my friend, Laura.

  • it was his real hair

    duh

  • well exCUSE me. I'll check my sources next time. Wow.

  • I love them.

    Anthony is such a spaz. God I love him.

  • wooooo Adam Pascal is so HAWT lol woooo lol hes awsome

  • omg i love them! adam pascal is so amazing (not to mention really cute) :)

  • the only rap[p] i like is anthony. ;)

    anyway, seriously... they are possibly to of the best musical theatre stars EVER. =) i don't think that they can go wrong.

  • God I hope you're kidding...

  • You are right

  • Anyone catch Adam Pascal totally screw up that line around 2:15 "What was it about..."? Ah, the joys of a live performance.

  • what screw up? that's how they recording on the soundtrack is.

  • Ok, they changed it between the musical and the movie. He did the musical version, which made it only a minor screw up - his pitch sagged quite a bit for a sec.

  • oh please don't go by the movie version, they changed a lot of the music and it's totally not the same

  • So, purist, are we? Personally, I like the movie version too, and frankly, I thought most of the changes were good ones. To each their own, I guess.

  • As much as I love Rent, I've always thought one of its problems is that it lacks a concrete story. Yeah, they all love each other and they fight...and so? What is the point? Seriously, take the music out and Rent loses its charm. In my opinion, both the musical and the movie have the same problem, although the movie doesn't include Good-bye love, which is awful, because there is even less story to tell.

  • that's a common theme for a lot of musicals. They are more of a focus of music rather than plot line. Musicals have two options... lack a good plot line or be 4 hours long.

  • The story is told through the music. That's the point of a musical....

  • ...Take the music out? Are you STUPID?

    Then wtf is the POINT of it being a musical?

    The story is told through the music. Just 'coz you cna't tell or know the plotline, doesn't mean you have to put down one of the greatest musicals of all time.

  • You don't have to call me STUPID to tell your opinion.

    As I said, I LOVE Rent, but I also have a brain and critical sense (plus I work as a screenplay writer). I talked about taking the music out not because I don't know it's a muscial (please!) but because I'm focusing on the plot.

    I'm not putting down anything. I'm simply stating that IN MY OPINION Rent lacks a real story, a real "objective", and that's a problem, whether we love a musical or not.

  • I see where you're coming from, but you also have to take into consideration that, in many cases, a plot doesn't matter in a musical. Rent has far more plot than, say, Cats, which has almost no plot whatsoever (I might point out here that Cats is the second-longest running show on Broadway to date, after Phantom). Please understand that I respect your opinion; I just want to make sure that you are looking at your arguments from all possible perspectives, because theatre folk are vehement.

  • Yeah, I think you're right, maybe I'm trying to look for a plot in a type of media that doesn't realy on plots. Anyway, there are some musicals that have a nice plot and they are superb: Les Miz, Miss Saigon, Jekyll and Hyde, The Fiddler on the Roof, etc.

  • I think...you miss a lot of what it means to be a musical. The words that they sing don't tell the whole story. The music behind them is a description of their thoughts and surroundings. If you took the voices out, there would still be enough of a plot to paint a good story just through instruments.

  • Jonathan Larson died before he could really perfect RENT. They didn't change much out of respect for him. It's not a matter of "they love each other, they fight." It's about an era where AIDS was eating people up, and the people who didn't have it were also tortured because their friends were dying. It's about outcasts of society joining together to form their own society. It's about living life and being engaged with each moment and being your own person. The music adds even more feeling to it.

  • "Seriously, take the music out and Rent loses its charm."

    okay, Rent is a ROCK OPERA. Take the music out and you have about 10 minutes of dilogue.

    just throwin' that out there

  • Actually, take the music out and you have about 2 lines that aren't sung.

  • yeah, that was kinda my point

  • haha yeahhh thats the best part.

  • You've got love this two!!!!!!!
