COVER - I am what I am ( La Cage aux Folles )

[amberlove86]

I loved it! I'm wanting to do this song for my final in my group voice class and I'm having a hard time finding the music (not the sheet music) for it that matched the version John did. So may I ask where you found yours?? It would be truly helpful :) thanks. And again your performance was amazing.

[BENJADAMONBROADWAY]

@amberlove86 Thank you very much! I bought the backing track on karaoke-version . com ;)

[kevincostnermyhero]

What a BEAUTIFUL performance. John Barrowman would be proud!

[shomods]

beautiful voice indeed...

[cathybjb]

Pas plus mal barré que certains ! j'ai écouté plusieurs versions et crois moi, tu n'a pas à rougir ! Oh, bien sûr, pour moi cette chanson est et sera toujours la signature de John, mais de ce que j'ai déjà entendu, tu viens de suite après !

[cathybjb]

La relève est assurée ! J.B. n'a qu'à bien se tenir ! Je découvre ce soir tes vidéos,  j'adore tout simplement. Tu a su apporter ton ressenti dans cette chanson et je pense que si tu persévères, tu peux devenir un grand interprète. Continues, je deviens déjà fan !

[BENJADAMONBROADWAY]

@cathybjb Merci beaucoup :DDD Quand on chante cette chanson (du moins quand JE chante cette chanson lol) on ne peut qu'être anxieux et se dire "arghhh voici la chanson culte de John, je suis mal barré" mdr.

Hello! guess what, I do love your performance. The fact that I to am a big big big fan of the song hopefully we can sing together. You were awesome, but heres something that I wish you would take into considerations: Give it a little more attitude, when you are on stage singing that song you must deliver that song all throughout so make presence and more more conviction. Control Fab, Voice Fab. Great Job

[BENJADAMONBROADWAY]

@marcky0825 Thanks a lot :) And you're completely right, this is one of the things I'm actually working on (my vocal teacher had told me the exact same thing!) and that's very true, but it's hard ^^ I mean I do believe what I sing... but I'm shy lol. Thank you :)

[marcky0825]

@BENJADAMONBROADWAY Hey! dont feel bad about something that you think you cant grasp. You know what, been there been that. You just have to believe in yourself and you need to pull out what you really are with that song. You said, you cant level yourself with Barrowmans singing. Well, actually you can. Try researching about his life you'll know that the way he sings is not just TO SING the song but actually to TELL THE STORY of the song itself. OWN THE SONG. and soon you'll surely be amaze.

@5AwesomeB1tches You're a rude troll. Not gonna lie.

[AnnaLeBeau]

@5AwesomeB1tches Sorry, stopped caring.

Have a nice day!

[AmeKitsunechan]

@5AwesomeB1tches ....Wow. Someone didn't pass their Reading tests in school. ._.

By the way, to be fair, you're the one with a channel which seems to have the sole intent of just "bitching" at people... I'm sorry, who's the loser, again? Oo

[AmeKitsunechan]

@5AwesomeB1tches LOL. Thanks so much for the amusement. O: If you think that was going to hurt me, you're not only low and life-lacking, your depth perception is also non-existent. I sincerely pity people like you, and that's from the bottom of my heart. Poor dear.

Anyways, have fun in your pitiful attempts to bring people down, darling. You're obviously going to go oh-so much further than I (or Adam, for that matter). I hope your trolling hobby takes you very far in life. ^_^

[emilylocklear]

i...love this. amazing job, i got chills <3

[Antoinette2222]

Une fois n'est pas coutume... je suis pas contente du tout. Nope. Super belle voix, facilité, mignon tout plein, rien à dire (et qui est-ce qui t'as ramené ce beau tee-shirt? ;-)

Mais Albin, au départ... il est triste, humilé, en colère ; et à la fin de la chanson il est sauvage et rayonnant. Alors ton interprétation est honnête si c'est à la "Barrowman en concert", mais tu peux faire bien moins lisse que ça.

*se sauve avant que les autres ne lui tombent dessus*

[yayamimine]

Yes, you are what you are, and we love you for that!!!!!!!!! <3 Beau travail mon Gazeau :D

[Mydarkness23]

Oh my god c'est tropp beau et surtout ca te vas tellement bien mon adam!!! je suis vraiment emue par cette chanson et la note de fin!!! ouhhhhhtu es un tres bon chanteur et un artiste a mes yeux ! bravo pour cette interpretation magique ^^

[dizzydevil547]

fab i have seen amature productions of la cage on stage here i the uk with some of my friends apearing in the show........ your rendition knocks spots off em and they are great singers! get your ass on that broadway stage they don't know what talent they're missing!

[BENJADAMONBROADWAY]

@dizzydevil547 Thanks a lot, here's the comment that just made my day \o/ Unfortunately it's very very hard to get a job in Broadway or in the West-End when you're not an actual native-english speaker :( I am stuck in Paris for now lol. THANK YOU :)

[doug18020]

Finally, another video and SO WELL DONE. You did a great job on this very difficult song. Perfect pitch all the way through and fantastic breath control, especially on that last note, which is a killer.

Keep more coming, plzzzzzzzz Miss you when you dont post.

Thumbs UP for Adam !!

[BENJADAMONBROADWAY]

@doug18020 Thank you !!! :) I know I should post more... I'm so bad. Glad to see you didn't abandonned me thinking I'm dead lol. I shall do more videos soon, I promise ^^

[doug18020]

@BENJADAMONBROADWAY I know we are selfish (your viewers) in wanting more performance video's.....and I know it takes a lot of time to make and edit video's.......BUT...someone with your evolving talent, great personality and growing fan base.......well.....needs to give us more.

Thank you sooo much for your efforts.....performances......­and I (we) will wait, patiently. lol

[LadyOfLemonade]

[Delpheen1]

[AnnaLeBeau]

Beautifully done, darling, as ALWAYS. xD I think John would be proud. And cool video!

I leave you with this:

'I'm proud to be different. It's the best thing about me.'

[BENJADAMONBROADWAY]

[yemored]

Travail très pro, je vais me la passer en boucle maintenant .... bon allez, direction fav' parce que je ne peux pas faire autrement =) Oui, tu nous prouve une fois de plus que tu es un artiste.
