  • I love how in n2n Aaron always had his butt sticking out(:

  • I love she's voice :)

  • Jennifer Damiano looks like Leighton Meester with that hair.

  • Oh, Alice. She's killed her voice. 

  • @TheTroubadour1221 shes playing a crazy woman

  • Alice Ripley is absolutely amazing i get chills when i listen to her sing

  • Alice Ripley. She's fierce.

  • wow, dead eyes all over the place jenn.

  • I cried so many times at this musical. Definitely one of my favourites. <3

  • . N2N is just phenominal, although it didnt win best musical, it was nominated, which is an honour, N2N and BETM were the only two musicals that stood a chance of winning, cuz broadway loves two things, storylines with heart, which both had, and pushing boundaries,again both did. The Jukebox musical has been done already, as has the flipping a fairytale(s) on its ass, with Wicked and Into the Woods and countless jukebox musicals (WWRY, Jerser Boys etc). If this musical was made anyother year it

  • @KyleOgilvie1 wod have won, but because it played the same year as BETM, it stood a slight chance of winning, seeing as BETM is a crowd favourite,and you have to admit, the songs in BETM are amazing. i think it should have been a tie like in 1960 between sound of music and fiorello!. but on the other hand it did win pulitzer prize best drama. one of only 8 musicals to do so, the last one being RENT. N2N and BETM are equal interms of story line imo, the song wise, N2N are just mor my style.

  • This to..........spiderman. *sigh*

  • Oh no, now I'm hooked to this! AMAZING!!!

  • I was emotionally moved by the song up until the point in which Jane Fonda's ugly mug was shown on the screen.

  • I can't handle this musical

  • Jane fonda is a traitor and should be shot

  • @miami33158 : You're not Fonda Jane?

  • @pureimagination75 i see what you did there. and i am fonda jane fonda.

  • This whole thing gave me chills. Holy crap, they're fantastic.

  • I love this song. What a great musical!

  • how could you dislik this? let's be serious people stop mucking around with the dislike button...this show is fabulous.

  • @ImFancyPants The 14 spammers might have had something to do with the dislikes. They'd have to have, only a bot with no emotions could dislike this.

  • JENN DAMIANO FJDSKL;AFJAL;.

  • hot damn

  • I love this song! So much, in fact, that I did a cover, check it out!

  • this song is my addiction.

  • I wish Jennifer won the Tony :)

  • Jennifer and Aaron are in harmony which makes it even more epic!Also I lived how Aaron came out of no where too!:)

  • I love how Aaron come up out of no-where-ish.

  • I love this song soooooo much

  • i love this song so much....

  • REALLY hope this come to London!!!! :)

  • I saw this show at the BUSHNELL in CONNECTICUT in April and absolutly loved it. I also think it deserved a TONY sweep. The music from this show is great as well. I love this song. I am happy to see that ALICE RIPLEY is touring with the show. When I saw this on April 2'nd she performed this show like she owned it. She was awesome.

  • This show was screwed out of the Tony sweep it deserved. Billy Elliot was good, but it was NOTHING next to n2n.

  • Jenn is nervous <3

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE!!!!!!

    

  • Dear God

    For Cristmas I want Aaron Tveit. Can I have him......please!

    Thank you!

  • ok ive seen the show but i never really understood why Gabe sang along with her! Please someone explain!

  • @gluedhand SPOILERSPOILER: Gabe is taunting Natalie because of how she's complaining about not being noticed. He is dead, of course, so hearing her complain about this kind of gives him this "At least you're alive" attitude.

  • @Kylezilla Oh my gosh thank you!!!!!!!

  • @gluedhand She feels invisible. Her mother is constantly the center of attention, as is her mother's delusion of her long-dead son, Gabe. Gabe is taunting Natalie as a brother would in real life when they get their way, more so than out of jealousy. Her dad only focuses on the mother and the mother on Gabe and her treatments. Look up a song that was cut from the show. It explains a lot. "Growing Up Unstable". Also, there is pretty good synopsis online. "Maybe" will give you some insight, too.

  • @soubrette87 Thank you very much!

  • @gluedhand You're welcome! I just looked at the iTunes account, and this song ALONE has been listened to over 300 times. Not including the CD and Youtube listens....

  • @soubrette87 Seriously? Woah! That is amazing if you count me watching this and listening and listening! :D

  • A m a z i n g  V o i c e s ♥

  • can broadway really get any better?! ohmygoodness this is amazing!!!

  • best cast in a musical ever. hope it comes back to CA! < 3.

  • LOL at how many of the comments unwittingly reflect the message of the song's lyrics. Aaron is talented, but Jennifer Damiano is beautiful and amazingly talented as well - and the star of this video. Go fawn over him at some Tveit-centric video. XD

  • he. is. awesome.

  • Seriously how can she keep singing when Aaron Tveit is singing at her..... i would just stop and stare at him to be honest :)

  • Now she is the Amazing Mary Jane! XD I love theatre!

  • Jennifer Damiano is FANTASTIC. Alice Ripley is MIND BLOWING. Aaron Tveit is AMAZING. <3

  • Why do you keep talking about aaron, when the star here is JENNIFFER???

  • This song is so intense - it gives me chills!

  • Jennifer Damiano and Aaron Tveit are so amazing! I love all the songs from Next to Normal but this is one of my favorites! Wish I had the chance to see them on Broadway!

  • I went to school with Jenn in preschool to 4th grade!

  • Aaron is sooo hott. I will have his babies :P Haha

  • Aaron is hot, nice and to top it all off he can sing>. *sigh*

  • Jenn: prodigy

    Alice: incredible

    Aaron: smokin'

  • Jenn is absolutely amazing.

    Aaron is just so damn sexy.

    Alice is indescribably incredible.

  • AH. They sing the heck out of that. <3

    I got goosebumps the first time I watched this...

    It's now probably the 50th I've watched it...

    Guess who STILL has goosebumps? ;]

    I'm in love with this. End of Story.

  • I remember seeing this clip on TV and thinking that I NEEDED to see this about two years ago. This song made me fall in love with the musical.

  • I almost wish I never watched Next to Normal because then I would never have discovered Aaron Tveit and I like him so much that it huuuuuuuurts.

  • i fancy aaron too much it hurts :(

  • i love AARON!

  • you can tell she was nervous

  • Performance rights available to license through Music Theatre International...

  • Everytime Aaron comes in... man... wow!

  • I'm literally in love with Aaron Tveit. He should just marry me immediately.

  • when it says that she was nominated for best featured actress..where it is with the song...PERFECT!!

  • Jennifer reminds me of Bridgette Wilson-Sampras from Billy Madison.

  • Hands down my favorite song from the show and they totally nailed it....

  • Just the show last week. Unprepared to be lifted out of my seat the way I was. Totally deserved the Pulitzer.

  • SO. FIERCE.

  • actually i'm sorry but i hate her voice, yes it is so powerful but it is to gaspy and, just sorry. ( the girl)

  • Powerful performance. Alice Ripley is superb.

  • OMG! that was AMAZING!

    i LOVE this show!

    we need a west end transfer!!!

    such a powerful song!

  • Is he supposed to be taunting her? That part never really made sense to me.

  • Comment removed

  • @tht2323 understood that part. I know the whole story. I don't get this scene.

  • @ziops1423 yep he's taunting her. She can't see him, so he's making fun of that and making the most of the fact that she's pretty much the invisible one. It's a little confusing if you haven't seen the show, but it's really ironic.

  • NO! NO! NO! superboy is a registered trademark of dc commics!!!!!! and invisible girl...well thats just some generic bull sh!+. . . . .

  • gosh. i've never seen next to normal, but this alone is enough to make me want to see it enough that i would swim across the ocean, hitch hike to new york, and find myself a theatre :)

  • Damn, Aaron is fine.

  • I love this one and I am the one. Those are my two favorites and the Son is SOO Creepy!!!! But like Sexy creepy....... like badboy thing. its weird.

  • he is too too delicious.

  • i love this song so much im doing this in chorus i love it! ^^

  • Dude. Aaron just gave me a frigging eargasm.

  • THIS SONG.

    Ugh. They're all so amazing.

    AARON TVEIT...<3

  • damn, he's hot

  • Alice Ripley is godly no lie.

  • they move their entire bodies when they breathe. :P

  • Jenn has the most beautiful belting vibrato I've ever heard. Gorgeous.

  • i really really really wish i could sing

  • Aaron Tveit= so damn sexy.

  • @MisterMerced Awesome I saw it on friday :)

  • I just came back from ny and I saw this with meghann fahy as Natalie. And I have to admit she's a lot clearer than jennifer. Brian Crum played Gabe and he did well and really fit the character, but now that I hear aaron's voice, I enjoy watching him perform too:) I wish I could've seen him play Gabe live.

    This was such a good musical...

  • Gahhh, the lighting doesn't do Ms. Ripley any favours here...

  • a lil off key but otherwise awesome!

  • @crs0831

    He actually played Roger in NPH's version. He was great! ... Vanessa Hudgen's however...

  • @CrayonQueen18 hahaa yeah i heard vanessa really sucked.

  • actualy Aaron is playing Roger and Skylar Astin from Spring Awakening is playing Mark!

  • don't mess with jenn. she's incredible. have any of you who dislike her seen her do "growing up unstable"? omg. best.

  • Seriously? Why is Jenn so amazing?

  • She sounds flat. Like she's singing lower harmony to a soprano.

  • Only just discovered this musical, would of loved to go and see it but with all new cast now I don't know if I'd want to anymore

  • @0o0dead0o0 I just saw it last night, and let me tell you IT IS WORTH IT!! It was so fantastic!!

  • @0o0dead0o0 Henry is still the same, and while Alice and Aaron are well them their replacements are good and I think that Meghann who replaced Jennifer is actually better. it's worth it to see it.

  • @Sky7228

    Nobody is better Jenn Damiano.

  • I WANNA SEE THIS SO BAD. ;-;

  • jennifer's voice is soo clear it is amsizing and aaroon is just HOT and amazing

  • AMAZING!!

  • Please check out my cover of this song i tried my best :) I love this song it's my favourite :D

  • OMFG... Everytime I watch these pieces of N2N I get goosebumps! <3

  • I absolutely have to see Next to Normal live sometime in my lifetime.

  • seeing this tomorrow for the second time. hoping to see Alice Ripley before she leaves...missed her the first time i went. this is my second favorite song in the show. my favorite is the final song, "Light".

  • best musical i have ever seen!!

  • my favorite performance of this song

  • I want to see this live so damn bad right now XD

  • Aaron Tveit is one of those people that is so overlooked, but in reality is pretty much amazing. Amazing voice... amazing looks (babe!). Amazing. And Jennifer and Alice... wow. For real. They're all so great. Jennifer should be as famous as Sutton Foster.

  • Best song from the show. Hands down. It gets me everytime. Live it gives me tears.

  • I was fortunate enough to see Aaron as Roger in the national tour of RENT when it came to Philly. He was excellent - he'd be a great Mark, but he really nailed Roger when I saw him.

  • whys Aaron so damn hot???

  • they're the BEST!!!!

  • Im so jealous of people who get to go to amazing shows like this

    I HATE LIVING IN AUSTRALIA!!!

  • I love this song... I could listen to it over and over...

  • I want to see this show so bad!

  • Jennifer, Aaron, and Alice are AMAZING! I saw the show for the first time in a few weeks ago, and saw it with the original cast with the execption of Gabe, who is now played Kyle Dean Massey (he replaced Aaron Tveit). That was the most amazing show I have ever seen in my life! I LOVED IT! N2N CAST YOU ARE AMAZING!

  • Wow. I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE Jennifer. Her voice is so powerful and disarming. I can't describe how awesome she is. I wish I could see her live.

  • I love how Jane Fonda was cut off! :L

  • Wow Jennifer is fierce! Why did I not know about her?

  • I listened side by side, it could be a quarter step down but not a whole step...i thought so at first too...

  • hahahaha i love that i got -5 for my comment? whatttt.

  • Jennifer is ridiculously talented.

  • Is this version in a different key?

  • @yakoleen It kinda sounds like it, doesn't it?

  • yes it is its a minor 3rd higher i think

  • @AmyVanWalsum ....listen again with your itunes open and play the beginning..its the same key...

  • @AmyVanWalsum ....listen again with your itunes open and play the beginning..its the same key...

  • at least he can sing...

  • jennifer was leighton's look alike on a gossip girl eposide

  • @yourrrsmile He's doing those faces to get really good sounds and he sounds great dontcha think?

  • Jennifer looks nervous...

    But she's amazing as usual

  • thats because her character is sopposed to be nervous

  • Joy, I don't think the guy who dumped on this song knows the subtext of the lyrics and the pathos of the "Invisible Girl's" existence.

    There's more to music than meets the ear.

  • Bah this is my favorite in the score!
