  • Try it with the snow going. I dare you to not weap with joy.

  • OMG>>>>yummy! delicious for my heart and my libido.

  • As long as he kisses lots of hot guys on screen, I don't mind he's gay. :D

  • i love his voice, no matter what comes after the neck , male ...female whether he is gay or straigh no matter when you have a voice like that ...just perfect, listening to this is like having a piece of heaven where you are on your own feeling happiness inside for a few minutes.... paradise!

  • Here's a man who's talented, not matter his preferences, as they don't impact his performances... He's versatile (as a performer) and he's so refreshing to to listen to. Live on and keep putting smiles on our faces and great tunes in our ears. DG

  • what a guy :)

  • Mack and Mabel is one of the most underrated musicals by Jerry Herman. What a beautiful song and what a beautiful singer.

  • This is a nice rendition of this song. Check out Robert Preston's "talky" version - it is true Broadway. Thanks for this post.

  • I don't give a flying at a rolling what he does in bed, I just think I want to listen to him sing.

  • I love him. He is amazing

  • BRAVISSIMO!

  • I just love this!

  • despite the lyrics and what they say, I still fall for him everytime :)

  • Such a beautiful and heart breaking song. Well sung and acted by John Barrowman.

  • Comment removed

  • The greatest musical in my opinion

  • I care what he is doing under the sheets and I wish he was doing it to me!

  • Robert Preston's version is best, by far.

  • he reminds me of tom cruise but i like him more.....

  • Oh god this is amaaaaaaazing. Fantastic. Legendary. Awesome. I just died a little.

  • I love his talent!! He can really sing a lovely song. I love the sound of Rouvaun's baritone tenner voice as well. But I have yet to find a song by John that I didn't like.

    There is a lot of talent in this world, gay, straight..what ever ?? I am just here for the music. Their personal lives are none of my business. Have a great day all listeners ....peace out... just love the music please.

  • Who cares if he's gay. If it bothers you that much then pretend he's not. He has great talent. His voice is amazing and he is very handsome. Gay or not anyone with that amount of talent should be appreciated.

  • Love it!

  • The conductor looks like Matt Smith... It's really freaking me out.

  • love the outrageous pause at the end! He's singing it up a tone on the original which works really well

  • What can I say but I love this guy and only wish someday I will get to meet him. John if you get this message, all I want to do is to meet you. I am sure I am one of your biggest fan.

  • This version is much better than the one on his newest CD.

  • For the people bemoaning that he's gay, you wouldn't have a chance with him if he were straight, either. None of us plain ordinary people would. I'm gay, but even if I weren't I could still apppreciate his handsomeness and talent.

  • @mjimme oh come on! don't ruin our hopes and dreams haha :P

  • this guy is a star you don't how good he is ,by the way I don't he knows either

  • *sigh* why are all the perfect guys gay? WHY!!!

  • @theTardisrules As my friend always says, all the good guys are either gay or taken. Ah well! Doesn't make me love him any less :) He has such an amazing voice.

  • Wow

  • I got chills listening to this - especially the last line. This man has everything, looks, talent, voice - and a boyfriend!!! He is just terrific.

  • How have I not heard this song before!! I love it!!

  • it's so passionately. I believe every his word!

  • wow....all i can think of is captain jack....but john barrowman is such an amazing talent

  • @fragolafarfalla57 ...Exactly, bottom line, we both agree he is a great performer.

  • @fragolafarfalla57 ...Look, I'm just saying he looks a LITTLE like Tom Cruise, just a LITTLE, that's all.

  • Look, I'm just saying he looks a LITTLE like Tom Cruise, just a LITTLE, that's all.

  • @fragolafarfalla57 are you kidding? he is a younger, taller tom cruise.

  • Little bit Tom Cruise. Anyways, great voice, really knows how to get those tenor notes with style. A true Broadway vocalist, which I like. Very strong. A+ video.

  • This is just.. *swoon*

  • Mabel Normand would be chuffed..her great-nephew sure is! Thanks John Barrowman..great job..hope you'll one day play Mack in Mack & Mabel as we chatted a while ago at your show "Pizza On the Park"..Best Wishes. Stephen

    I am literally swooning <3

  • i love him so much

  • what's wrong with saying "homosexual"...he is, isn't he?

  • @2010dispencer

    I agree; many gay men are talented and goodlooking.

  • @amcoca why thank you so veddy much!! XXOOXX

  • I just love this video, I love the face expression matching the song..

  • Such a heart felt version! I love this guy....

  • This is from what performance and what year?

  • homosexual

  • @2010dispencer F Off. This man is talented! U have 8 CDs, or 2 BBC series, ever been on Broadway, or performed in the WEST END? If u dont like this music dont watch and dont judge.

  • @2010dispencer so what? I can't seem to find the point in your comment.

  • @2010dispencer Yes he is, thank you for your thoughts Mr 'I can state commonly know facts on demmand, go me', there's a talent that will come in handy.

  • @2010dispencer No shit sherlock! Bet Scott's glad of your confirmation...now you go get on with taking over the world :-D

  • @2010dispencer Well done, he is...

    ...What of it?

  • PLEASE DO A US TOUR SOON!

  • @TheSpencer1960 get a life

  • @ksteedo You do not anyone u would like to see in person? Some people like rap, (I don't) some people like Heavy Metal, not me, I like this type of singing. If you dont fine, don't disparage those that do! Thsi man has a dual GB-USA citizenship, why should he spend all of his time in the UK? WTF do u think are to judge me!

  • @ksteedo sorry i love the man the remark was for 2010dispencer

  • Rose

    I won't send roses, com o John Barrowman.

    Antonio

  • oh Jack Harkness..... <3

  • beautiful job!

  • i love his voice!

  • wow that was great

  • Oh god john....whats wtih the hair.....sweetheart....you look so bad with that style.

    But everything else, mmm i'll take a bit of that. I love John Barrowman. Gimme a little good ol' Cap'n Jack! -__^

  • Wow, he's really good!!

  • What a great voice.

  • Lovely!

  • he reminds me of mr big from sex in the city.oh mr barrowman you tick every box even if you won't send roses

  • This is a nice version of this beautiful song.John does it justice.He sang this at the London Palladium in November,he was the special guest at Michael Feinsteins concert.Thanks John for the song and thanks HereComeTheDrums2 for the post.

  • That was terrific! I'm surprised, I didn't know you did that.

  • What a lovely song.

  • Love this song. The sheer emotion John displays through it almost had me in tears.

  • How can he expect anyone to turn and go after singing like that? God, it melts my heart.

  • John has a very lovely version of this beautiful song. For a great interpretation of this song, check out Torvill and Dean's version.

  • This is fab.

  • Lindow - Wow, such cattiness! I like both Michael Feinstein and John Barrowman's versions of this song, but I don't cut one down to raise the other! Barrowman is more than good looking, he's a great singer and a good actor. Otherwise, why would producers have cast him in now 17 musicals in the West End in leading roles in the past 20 years. Both men have paid their dues and their talents are obvious.

    Now have you heard Howard Keel sing this song? It's a really special. Check it out on YT.

  • Wow, that's an overreaction if I've ever read one.

    I like both versions.

    Huh.

  • @ Lindow There's no rule that says you can't enjoy them both. Live and let live. Why does it have to be a competition ?

  • Who cares what he does under the sheets. The man has a wonderfoul voice and talent.

  • So? What's wrong with being gay? Personally I love Jack anyways :D

  • Comment removed

  • OMG! Freakin' Goosebumps!

  • absolutely brillant as john always is ,all my love

  • This song will be on his new CD :) (released february the 22th) can't wait

  • On the site it says march1 but still i agree cant wait 4 new album!!

  • He dedicated this to Scot on his tour. I love him lots and lots. x

  • No he's not, he was born in Scotland and then moved to Illinois when he was nine.

  • I didn't say he was born here, but he did get his start here at the now closed Opryland theme park here in Nashville, TN. He used to perform there.

  • i like how he starts off defiant & angry, then ends ever so gently & sweetly showing that he really does love the person but wont or cant show it.

  • seeing him on saturday!! so excited. i love him with my whole heart. he portrays such good characters and his performing is truly mesmorising.

  • hes amazing. actor, singer, dancer

    is there anything he cant do

    an hes gorgeous

  • @westlife4life93 there is something he can't do, sadly ladies, he can't give his heart to us D: awell, his husband's one facking lucky guy! >w< at times like this I wish I was a gay man X'D

  • @westlife4life93 He can't play on my side of the team.

  • He sang this on his Music Music Music tour and me and my freind saw in in portsmouth we were so damned happy! love this song!

  • Beautiful John. Te adoro,.....as Maria says to Tony in West side Story. Catch the 1960's masterpiece if you can guys.

    Meanwhile you just get to me John.B.

    A continued happy life to you mon cher and your lucky partner.

  • he looks really young here it so cute i prefre his hair as capt. jack spikey than here

  • i'M IN LOVE

  • Anthony Warlow does it more justice, but John has a beautiful voice and he does one of my favourite songs very well.

    Beautiful!

  • Oh I like him so much better singing this song than singing Marry Me A Little - which is weird, considering that they're both about being cynical of love. :( Maybe he was having an off day then, but I'm glad he sang this one.

  • he sang this at his Ipswich concert last night it was fabulous!

  • i just watched him live last night and he sung this - beeeyootiful :D

  • John Barrowman gives such a wonderful performance everytime, this man was born for show business. I love John's version of this song.

  • Tom Cruise with height, personality and the ability to act!

  • he looks like tom cruise.

    amazing voice, though.

  • He doesn't look like Tom Cruise!!

    Tom Cruise is ugly compared to John!

    Don't insult him, it's making me angry!!

    *Sighs at John's face 'way to good-looking to be Cruise'*

  • Yes, but Barrowman is talented ...

  • I think Robert Goulet does this song the best !

  • if you think john is great you should have seen David Soul in Mack and Mabel. I got to see him twice!! OMG he makes me want to straddle household appliances!!!

  • great version - michael ball version is crap - Howerd Keel would love this this !

  • This guy is fab both in voice and on Torchwood

    add to the mix that he is a hell of a goodlooking guy and a very nice man.

  • @poshmum and is why we all envy Scott Gill. lol. :)

  • Is this availabe to purchase anywhere?

  • anyone know how to downlaod this,or anysong to my computer to be transfered to a cd or mp3

  • Just watched another version of this @ this years Faenol Festival, absolutely fantastic, esp his partner Scott saying it describes him to a t! J B is wonderful!!!

  • The end of this song gives me chills every. single. time.

    He has a truly magnificent voice!

  • I know Mr. Barrowman as the lead actor in the British TV Series "Torchwood". I hadn't known that he's quite a singer, as well.

  • @mortygwhiz: he's been a musical theatre performer for many years, and in the 90's/early 2000's has been one of the West End's most famous leading men (e.g. in Sunset Boulevard, Miss Saigon, Anything Goes, Phantom of the Opera and many more). I didn't know that before I saw him on Doctor Who/Torchwood, either. Now I'm a huge fan of his music and even bought tickets for his tour this spring - can't wait to see him live :)

  • omg im such a big fan two..x !! i love him so much i have nearly every song hes ever sung on my ipod lol..x

  • I've always loved this song, ever since I heard Anthony Warlow sing it on his album, but John Barrowman does a fantastic job. Beautiful.

  • Another great rendition of this song is by Michael Feinstein- I think I like Michael's arrangement of the song better, but it's probably because he's also a pianist and really works the song with the accompaniment. John's got the better voice though- and is he hot or what?!?

  • Can anyone tell me if this is taken from a televised concert? If so, is it available on DVD?

  • What a hunk! I totally love John Barrowman. I know he's in a committed relationship with a partner, but I can dream. Great singer and actor!

  • I love Mack and Mabel with a passion. And I'm going to be completely honest when I say I have no idea who John Barrowman is. But, he definitely did this song justice and he has a great voice.

    I would love to hear Robert Preston do this live, though. Hmm... :/

  • How do you not know who John Barrowman is?

  • Omg, I saw him in concert in Brighton during his April album tour and he sang this, only after he told us that Scott told him that this song suits him to a T (I think I've used his words here). Quite honestly, I can't see him forgetting people's birthdays etc.

    Quite, quite gorgeous. As always. :)

  • P.S. I want to see this song on his next album!

  • Robert Preston's voice is on the posting of Torvill and Dean skating to this very song. Both Preston's and Barrowman's are wonderful.

  • Just found the Torvill & Dean. Thanks for the tip. Think RP wins, ... but it's close!

  • I live John's voice. This is such a beautiful song. He signs it soooo well.

  • Until someone posts Robert Preston's version, I guess this'll have to do (smile). But seriously, ... love JB's voice - he sings this brilliantly.

  • hes like a singign version of tom cruise.....but awsome!!

  • only taller, more handsome and sane

  • sane? have you read his book?

    I love JB with most of my heart, but sane is not one of the attributes I'd use

    Sexy, gorgeous, and quirky. But not sane.

    Although, really, almost everyone is more sane than Tom Cruise.

    I hope I can meet him one day.

  • the best vocal performance Ive ever seen him give .. brilliant

  • great song great person love both

  • I saw John last night at the Apollo

    Was AMAZE!

    When he sang this song I got shivers, as a singer I can totally idolise John Barrowman.

    This was the best song of the night!

  • That this song describes John to a tee doesn't surprise me at all. This comes across in his many interviews and autobiography. John is a highly driven, ambitious individual, and is a wonderful person!

  • Just seen John in Nottingham wow what a fantastic night he said before he sang this that Scott thinks this song describes John to a tee. I thought that it was really sweet that he sang this. just listen to the lyrics and you just imagine what hes like

  • I am insanely jealous that you have seen him in person. I don't think he has any plans to travel to the States. I would fly anywhere to see him!

  • would be worth traveling any distance he is AMAZING! what you see is what you get. he is so genuine and he was talking so openly about all aspects of his life and his singing is even better live than on cd I hope he comes to the states for you soon ( not for too long though!) we need him here!

  • Saw John last night in Cardiff WMC. Was the fist night of his tour and he sang this song. It was amazing. Fantastic voice.

  • rofl, it's freema and those are just spoilers that are ...well, wrong.

    anyway, <3333 john. xD

  • P.S. His lips kind of freak me out on this vid so double EEEP!

  • I have to learn this song for my singing class, all I can say is EEEP!

  • Calling all Torchwood fans, let's petition Russell Davies for a musical episode where the characters get to sing. "I Won't Send Roses" can be Captain Jack's breakup song to Ianto.
