Celebrity Interviews: Glee's Darren Criss Performs 'Human' -- TV Guide Network Exclusive

[beaniebaby3s3]

darren criss is human, he's (supermegafoxyawesome) hot, and is incredibly talented!!!!!!!!! (he's human but his voice is out of this world...is he human? ;D)

[MsFreakinPotter]

ARE YOU HUMAN ? O_o <3

[lmansleyx82]

ahhh he's so good @ playing that thing! and his songs are insane! i mean how many chords do you think you can actually fit into one song?!

[globul33]

Story of how my Heart just explode ...

[PinkStarKidPotter]

I ship darren Criss with guitars. Mhm.

[Lizered24]

They need to let Darren play guitar as Blaine on glee !!!!!!

[HairConfetti]

A Darren video I haven't seen! o.O

[MaggieSerendipity]

One thing I love about Darren: He's not perfect. He messes up all the time, even onstage. That's not a bad thing, it just makes him a dumb human, like me. :) One other thing: Even though he sounds like a freakin' angel, he has no vibrato whatsoever! This song makes me feel like I'm falling in love, falling in love, falling in love... With Darren Criss! :D In case you were wondering, I am a HUGE Starkid and Glee fan!

[ChristyRusk08]

@MaggieSerendipity I haven't read anywhere that Darren's had formal voice training lessons, but he's great the way he is =)

[lmansleyx82]

@ChristyRusk08 if you listen to his new broadway.com interview, i am pretty sure he says that he has never received formal voice lessons haha, if incase you wanted to confirm that :p

[DarrensGirl1958]

He's perfect. I can't believe he's come so far in such a short amount of time.

[SeanBerdysnumber1fan]

:) Explains my feelings perfectly, I can always turn to him when I'm feeling down! :)

[gemillaifyjo]

so sexy haahahaha

[xDropje1]

I love this song. It makes my happy.

[Fabyio]

Lol. Of course he's so not human. He's just sarcastic like that.

[pynqromance]

Help. Convince me he is human.

[hateoutsiders]

his moms fav so perfect

[lilmaddieme]

He likes this because its his mom's favorite....

"Dylan's much better at singing this than i am (*bullshit*) but... i like it. Because my mom likes it"

I think i watch too many Darren Criss videos.

[misskalixte]

it's ORGANIC

[SariPotter28]

He just needs someone to love.. THATS ME ;) <3

[pinkopalrose]

i am trying to find the dislike bar, but it's so small i can't find it. we're gonna need to get a hufflepuff in her to FIND the dislike button

[JazznStuff1001]

Marry me.

[violetlaugh]

OH GOD DARREN IS PERFECT.

[MarissaAtTheDisco]

Oh look it's Darren Cri... gtraoghoeahgao

I'm sorry, what? The most supermegafoxyawesomehot human in the world just started singing.

[TroutyPout]

This physically pains me because it's such a sweet song, and he's such a sweet guy.

Arrrghhh eofiheworifheorihewoifhhifogjf­oie jfoiewfjoip

[MissFloraKing]

He is Amazing! I love him!



[putsomerecordson]

i love the way he looks at the guitar like it has personally offended him when the chord doesnt go right... :D

[emlucile]

@Peaches1300 Totally! It's like he was born to be supermegafoxyawesomehot.

[klim1004]

Sometimes it's painful to look directly at him because he exuberates so much awesome. It's like looking into sunlight.

[emmaissocoollike1]

i was waiting for him to forget his own lyrics again... lol :)

[kittycat965166]

"He likes himself and his art...but not his art too much." :)

[RUMBLEROAR2187]

@kittycat965166 "Likes himself in is art but not his art too much"

[DidSomeoneSayGlee]

I dare you to be more adorable. I fucking dare you.

[JLTaeng]

darren criss is awesome :) what else can i say? O.O

[OliviaYinC]

OMG! Darren Criss is ADORABLE!

[egee93]

PLEASE LET ME FUCK YOU DARREN CRISS!!! <3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3<3

[TennantTardis]

Oh Darren. You definitely don't need to stand up and ask us to pay attention anymore... <3

[KittenInMySocks]

I love his expresions! If i didn't have a boyfriend I would be really into him! ;)

[iziexxx]

he is one of the most talented persons i have ever seen if he can write this at 15 years wow i could not ever do that i love him !!

[MichelaMik]

Darren is wonderful, he has got a great talent!!!

[missrosieee100]

5 dislikes? Thanks hermione!

[beduj63]

:( i want to learn this song but it looks super hard :(( i feel a little pathetic right now.

[SummStar1]

the camera man needs to use zoom! DARREN CRISS you are soo yummy x

[emlucile]

'human' is not enough to describe you <3

[Peaches1300]

@emlucile More like God, Master, All things amazing, right? :)

[coretrustnlove]

Darren Criss is cool but his music is not that original! Its kinda typical!

[musiicmasterrr]

@coretrustnlove I actually agree with you. But I think what's so special about Darren is that he's so musically versatile. Honestly, he can do just about anything with his voice and with an instrument. And I'm really interested in what he does with his solo album, because he could literally take it in any direction he wants.

But my point is that I do agree. His music IS, indeed, typical. His talent, however, is not. (:

[coretrustnlove]

@musiicmasterrr Hopefully will have taken everything he learned from glee and apply it towards making a great POP album - this blues, folky thing is just limiting him!

[asmileisspecial]

@musiicmasterrr *nods* He can do anything! I'm so desperate for him to do another (longer) album so he can fill it with an amazing eclectic mix of music.

[swedishmikafan]

Man he's got some serious guitar skills...

[zargbdarzoster23]

omg darren, can you please stop being so perfect? It's driving me insane!!! You're just such an inspiration and you're soo talanted too. Oh, and he's TOTALLY supermegafoxyawesomehot <3

[MsJeyTD]

0:57 = total guitar skills :)

[weepingoldwillow]

5 people disturbed Rumbleroar's slumber...

[lmansleyx82]

anyone got an idea of what chords he is using? i've seen covers and tutorials and none of them look like they are playing the right chords. and i would reallyyyy like to know!

[doctorwhofan1995]

i love this song it has so much feelings and it motivates me!!!! trying to learn the guitar so i can play this song <3

[MsLalalalea]

How do guys like Darren and Gabe Bondoc come up with these incredible chord progressions? & Darren writing this song AT 15?! It's just too incredible... O-O

[MsMonie100]

@MsLalalalea I love you for mentioning Gabe Bondoc and Darren in the same sentence.. My two loves <3

[MsLalalalea]

@MsMonie100 They're both just so incredible... I love them. They're like, supermegafoxyawesomehot! :P

& for Darren to come up with this song at FIFTEEN YEARS OLD. My gosh! I couldn't even play guitar properly at that age.. & don't you think there's a bit of similarity in how Darren and Gabe plays guitar?

[me2drescue]

woooooooooowwwwww I simply adoore this guy! I love his curly hair, he is so talented! <3 =)

[1912jackdawson1912]

i literally think im crying. i have found my husband

[berflaberab2]

i wish i can sing like this.. =(

[Chanelleml]

I love the ecko or what ever the hell is happening with the sound its great

[KezzieZeGooification]

seriously i hate every single person who gets close enough to take a photo let alone a good quality video -.-

[Wickedeath90]

Something is psychologically wrong with the 5 people who disliked this.

They must not be human.

Darren Criss is an amazing, talented, caring, sweet, beautiful, & funny. <3333

I love him so much. <3333333

[noigirl]

loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeee him soooooooooooooooooooo bad!!!!!!!

[jinshen23]

whats the model of his guitar i just love it :D

[frankymkh]

he wrote this song when he was 15!!! 15!!! this is crazy he didn't become this famous until Glee!!

[njuta]

What a beautiful creature

[GaSs34]

it has a Toy Story vibe, doesnt it? I love it ^^

[Chanelleml]

@GaSs34 omg you are soooo right

[mandys315]

@GaSs34 ha yeah i love it =D <3

[rachiebaby1997]

dawww, you can totally hear the 15 year old in him <3

[soulchild180]

His mom's fave?

AWWWWWWWWWWWWW HE IS PERFECT.

[DoctorWhoFanFC]

He's the ideal prom date,he plays Harry Potter better the Daniel,I honestly think he's the perfect role-model and the best celebrity EVER.

[JjPayneMusic]

He wrote this when he was fifteen?

Holy shit.

How much more proof is needed?

Darren Criss is bloody amazing.

[BelaFarinRodchen]

less.than.three!!!

[cranc13]

[LizzieBananas]

Darren you have the greatest facial expressions when you sing x)

[OhoySailor]

He is perfect.

[anmabimiki]

hahaha he had me for a second there when he faked messing up! he's one crazy talented guy.

[LiveLovePotter1]

His eyebrows are perfect triangles... hes supermegafoxyawesomehot!!! He makes the cutest faces when singing.

[ImaLittleStitious]

This song has such a lovely meaning, especially for a 15 year old boy to have written it. You can tell he's a very creative and free-spirited human being with a good heart. Don't you ever change Mr. Darren Criss.

[andreoskya]

oh my god i think i'm in love.

[broadwaystar92]

"It's my mom's favorite so I have to play."  Yet another reason why I love Darren Criss.

[xIertjex]

@fribbles12345: He's not amazing good looking? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?

[fribbles12345]

hes not amazing good looking but he does have a lovley voice

[RonRonRonWeasIey]

@fribbles12345

Im sorry but you need more Darren Criss ma'am xD

He is hottest fucking man for God to bestow upon us..

lmao xD

[pearlmcgirl]

His lips are so kissable.......

[blugal77]

i think sayin that darren criss is supermegafoxyawesomehot, is a major understatement.

[unlimitedfunlol]

This is the best song I've ever heard! Love him!!!!!! <3

[MejMej94x]

Human is 'totally awesome' just like Darren :)

[PADGEist]

Thank god for us all be being human .... Otherwise we wouldn't have been blessed with this song .... :)

[Chellybean024]

Love explosions! <3

[FranMaame95]

I love how people are siding on whether they are a Gleek who loves Mr Darren Criss here, or a Starkid that loves him in A Very Potter Musical too. Can't there be a middle ground guys? I know I am both a Starkid and a Gleek :)

[rosebudIII]

@FranMaame95 me too! he is my teenage dream who also happens to be supermegafoxyawesomehot. i really don't see why people have to argue about it, it's like picking your favorite child.

[dolllface826]

@FranMaame95 stargleek 4 lyfe

[nirvanarhi]

[salpeme100]

[calliecookie2349]

[DoctorWhoFanFC]

I'm in love with this man...Seriously..

[froggirl19921993]

They should have an AVPM/S themed Glee episode with Jamie Lynn Beatty and Lauren Lopez in it, too!!! :D That would make my life complete! :DD Lol

[TheAboutLastNight]

@froggirl19921993 I lovvvvve your idea:)

[froggirl19921993]

@TheAboutLastNight Why, thank you! I try. :D

[purplepolkadotpig]

[demoiselley]

Darren Criss is officially my new crush! =D <3

[justajumpingypsygirl]

@demoiselley Join the club. actually literally... Look it up I think it's on facebook

[janinelovesmusic]

[Katiee250]

@demoiselley Yeh, Darren Criss is my crush too

[kmb1023x]

@QKagome101 hey if they can make me go "awwwww" when joey hugs his own dick...then they have something pretty special hahaha

[kmb1023x]

@QKagome101 you forgot me and my dick :] thats actually my least favorite. i really just sick of dick and vagina jokes. and that is literally FILLED with them.

[MGMTsLegend]

hes good! But glee is gayer than broadway

[SennaAnodyneRaylie47]

This song is so cute. And so is Darren. <3

[amyhtak]

he's got nice hands.

[Lilmarisa101]

I saw him first!!! Lol no i'm not like that. But yeah Darren you are amazing! I'm so proud of how far you've gone and you have beautiful/awesome fans cheering you on. WE LOVE YOU!!!!!

[thefashionablehobo]

at the end they zoomed in on his guitar...they should have zoomed in on his face. just saying :)

[cinematicadventures1]

I'm dying from the cuteness. AND the talent.

[trendhater73]

Darren's EP is amazing. Love, love, love the songs. I listen to all of them at least once a day lol. But I'm not obsessed or anything! I swear! xD

[Lalai44]

this song brings joy to my heart!

[MsPebbles2010]

He wrote this at 15...hmm that i did not know..gezzssshhh darren you can stop being so damn cute and totally awesome sometime..lol your ruining guys for me..i want my own darren criss now..lol

[LetMeEatFlesh]

@MsPebbles2010 Yeah, please don't make Darren a standard!

[MsPebbles2010]

@LetMeEatFlesh It's all good, i got my own Darren Criss <3

[ChrisColferFanatic]

@MsPebbles2010 i wish i had a darren criss and a chris colfer xD

[Adaness91]

omg I love him<3

[musiicmasterrr]

He's too amazing. I can't soak it all in. It is literally too much. He's such a beautiful person, and just so humble even though he's one of the most talented people I have ever come across. I feel like there is nothing he can't do. (: Put simply, I love Darren Criss.

[coretrustnlove]

@musiicmasterrr Would you still say that if he was FAT?

[musiicmasterrr]

@coretrustnlove Yes, I would. Proudly so, actually. Because I'm not so shallow as to deny someone a compliment simply because of their physical appearance.

Would you have asked me this had I been hating on him instead? Do you like starting arguments with people when you have no reason to do so? Is this the best things you can find to do with your time?

I paid someone a compliment, and you're going to be rude about it?

His appearance is a small bonus in comparison as far as I'm concerned.

[BlazingWater101]

It's my favourite song too!

*high fives darrens mum*

[ladyinred868]

God he was 15 when he wrote this song?? Oo that's just AWSOME!!! i can't even write a damn poem for school ;b

[martinwalnut]

i just spent the last hour and a half watching darren criss videos on youtube. he is so incredibly incredibly talented.

[awesomeular]

@martinwalnut ahahaha meee tooo<3

[LisaasThoughts]

Has anyone noticed that Darren, Matt and Leah are the only ones who are aloud to sing outside of the show? :D

[IdaRockz4ever]

You're not just a dumb human! You're the supermegafoxyawsomehot Harry freakin' Potter! xD

[makeupqueen96]

he's such a charmer! *swoon*

[SingularityStar]

Dear Darren,

If you need someone to love, I'm available.

Just saying :) <3

[ChocolatePieSuus]

he is adorable and very talented. Period. :p Who cares where you saw him first. I know A LOT of Gleeks who checked out AVPM after seeing him on Glee, because they loved him. And I'm sure there are Starkid fans who started watching Glee because of Darren.. so yeah. Just enjoy his awesomeness people! <3

[Cheesemoone]

Seriously please please please help me!I cant figure out how he's picking? I'm dead set on learning this on guitar.

[lottimann]

damn it darren you can love me anyday (:

[Filofreak]

Glee should try not to autotune him once. :D

[TheFudgeBounce]

Alright, I know him from Glee, but I love him way better in AVPM/AVPS because auto tune doesn't suit him well.

[cloxwork]

@TheFudgeBounce Agreed. Glee needs to stop the autotune. He doesnt need it, at all.

[Cheesemoone]

I'm trying to learn this on guitar...his strum pattern is soo confusing! Could some awesome person help me?!

[19teenybee94]

this song soooo reminds me of someone -.-

[gabbyabi]

i love him :D

[flutterfeet]

Darren Wrote this song when he was 15. 15!!!! What a genius!!!

[elliemakesmusic]

i'm so glad glee introduced me to him. his EP's amazing, and so are all the starkid musicals. <3

[Quirellmort99]

I love how every time he sings a song its a little different :) That just shows how good of an artist he is

[Quirellmort99]

I love how everyman he sings a song its a little different :) That just shows how good of an artist he is

[dramaticbookworm]

Nothing will ever top a Darren original <3

[lodleyoo16]

wow. best. lyrics. ever.

darren teach me to write songs like that (chord assembly included!) !!!!

[92dreaming]

Oh Darren Criss, marry me.... ^^

[BlazingWater101]

I've got human on my ipod!!!! along with jealousy <3 love darren! i am a proud starkid and gleek <3

[chomsky88]

Wow, wow and wow; after watching this I'm surprised they didn't get Darren to write the original songs for the next episode of Glee.

[ltednos]

He is such an amazing and well deserved success story!!!!!!! Can't wait to see where he goes from here!

[stephlem89]

Daaang he wrote it when he was 15!? Darren, you are too ridiculously talented. Seriously. <3

[LilacNight]

go harry freaking potter :)

[CryAndHealTheWorld]

omg 15..... :) :) :) :)

[MsJalice]

love love it :)

[sekayujora]

Wow, he really sings nice also in real life

[HisPrincessKittykat]

This sounds better than the studio version!

[christina308dz]

He's too charming and adorable and handsome and sexy and sweet and smart and talented. God i could go on... :)

[Euphae]

I don't know why, but it feels wrong seeing him without either that blue headband, or the glasses. He's Harry freaking Potter, after-all. xD

[naynaynay7]

Human is a great song and it's so sweet that one of the reasons Darren Criss played it was because it's his mother's favorite. What a good son.

P.S. His guitar is gorgeous. I've never seen one like it before.

[TheFudgeBounce]

It see that the whole "But I don't like your face" line still cracks him up. :)

[pparseltoungesloverr]

darren deserves fans from both Glee and AVPM

...just saying though the AVPM fans are more dedicated :D

[Kyraaah]

Is he wearing a Slytherin tie? xD

[JellyPumpkins]

Darren's mom and I have something in common. :)

[NoRulesWithMakeUp]

He sounds very good here :)
