@carlton921 I know, right? He's just the best. Whenever I see/hear other people play Mark it's always kinda like "wait, what're you doing with Mark's scarf, you?!" :)
And, yeah, I know! I only ever got to hear him as Charlie Brown, but he sounds soooooooo cute. I think I'd just love him in anything.
When I saw this, Adam had blond hair, but here, it looks like his hair is brown... but yeah, I wish I could play Mimi so I could kiss Adam.
I also think that he would make the perfect Fiyero. If he did play Fiyero, I would die happy. And he has the right vocal range for it. So WHY HASN'T HE AUDITIONED FOR WICKED YET??? D:
RENT is such an awesome, amazingg musical. I love it. I've seen the broadway clip of Adam and Daphne performing this song on opening night, and they are just adorable together. I especially like the smiles and just the interaction between them. Both have such powerful vioices. =D
Today during my lunch break I saw Daphne walking in Chelsea (NYC)! Geez, she's gorgeous in person.
Did anyone else notice that she opens her eyes wider when she says "older" at 1:59, as reference to her joking about her age? I found that hilarious! :D She's the best!
man i love adam pascal anthony rapp and wilson *i cant emember his last name dan! lolz* but yea i love RENT i swear this is the best frigging musical ever high school musical aint got NOTHIN on RENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!4ever!!!!!!!!!!
this might be a dumb question but can anyone explain this scene to me? like why do they pull away then come back together and say @ 2:11-2:18?"now we.,oh no,i know,oh no who knows where, who goes there?" this is one of my favorite songs in the show and my school is doing this play later this year and i'm gunning for the part of mimi!
Roger wants to be with Mimi but he's scared and pulls away but she implys that he shouldn't be scared and he belives her and she takes his hands back.
well someone tried to tell me it's supposed to be "now we, both know, i know, oh no" except the books for amateur performance have "oh no" twice. but after listening to several versions, stage, amateur, broadway and movie it's:
"Now we, oh no, i know, oh no".
it's to do with his reluctance to get into a relationship when both are ill. now we can be together, but we're ill, i don't care.
you do know any taping of live performances is ILLEGAL. I'm not ratting you out... but I'd advise you taking this down. If you're caught it's a $500 fine. I should know....
This performance by the original actress Mimi was not her best, but darn, it was moving. Screw vocals, she knows how to sell the audience. Ten years ago when they debuted and Rosario was in diapers, you would have never imagined.....
It's kind of confusing because their worries are not explicit. They're thinking like: "now we are going to start a relationship, but we don't know how long we will live." It's like their reluctant in commiting to each other knowing that they both got AIDS.
The funny walk that Adam and Daphne do at the end of I Should Tell Youis parodying the same thing that Wilson and Jesse do in I'll Cover You. So cute. :P
I love this version- people who have only watched the movie and now are watching this, you need to remember that Daphne is raw and real- Rosario is a fantastic singer, but Daphne is doing this live- Rosario's lip-syncs to a studio version.
I know. I love Daphne's voice because it's so rough and unique - not crystal clear and perfect like you see these days. I love Rosario too, but Daphne will always be my fave. :D

adam does not look like roger here. he looks like an old guy from like some suburb somewhere. i think it is the dark short hair. he looks better with blonde long hair.
i have grown to really love daphene's i mean she sounds more like an addict than rosario. I ove rosarios rendetion though i just think since she was the original you have to love her! Jonathon larson picked her!!!

SEND THIS OVER TO 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR CRUSHES NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKs
Both Daphne and Rosario are awesome, and the only reason Daphne solunds scratchy here is because i think she started smoking. She used to sound much better. However, Daphne sounds druggie-like, which is what mimi should sound like.
you cant really complane about about daphnes voice because she was handpicked by jonathan larson, also nobody knew they were going to perform the whole show that night they were just told they were going to sing seasons of love
Mimi isn't supposed to have a lovely, beautiful, angel-like voice, okay - Mimi was an addict. I feel that Daphne's voice is great for the character. Plus, it's been ten years...things change. I personally don't have a problem with Daphne's voice...in fact I love her voice.
if you din't know that annoying Mimi won a tony for best leading lady in a musical and she was going to be in the movie the only thing is she was pregnat by the time of casting.
I prefer Daphne! She has such a raw and rock'n roll voice! But Rosario was good, I just prefer Daphne (the ORIGINAL Mimi) more! And I LOVE Anthony! He is sooo cute and he was soooo into it! Viva La Vie Boheme!
I like Jesse and Idina dancing in the beginning when they started to sing la vie boheme B.. It was funny.. love this song.. Jonathan Larson is a pure genius.. RIP: Jonathan Larson, an amazing creator...
k if u watch this than the i should tell u from the movie- woah. no offense 2 daphne fans, but when they are together they have NO chemistry. him and rosario and wayy better. her voice if a bit annoying...although still pretty good! it seems whiny...whatever. adam is HOT!
You need to keep in mind that this was unrehearsed ten years later, and I personally think they did a damn fine job. You really shouldn't rate their acting on this. Now if there was a copy of them from '96...oh wow how I would love that, lol.
...because that's the way she looks? I mean, seriously, what kind of question is that? They cast Fredie Walker (which is her name, btw) as Joanne originally because she has a fantastic voice and is a great actress. She portrays Joanne wonderfully, and that's a hell of a lot more important than anything about her appearance.
(Plus, having met her, I can honestly say she's really pretty - but what do I know, I'm just a lesbian)
@Ismenetruth Agreed. She's gorgeous (this is coming from a straight female). Also worth mentioning, RENT is about real people with real problems. Real people aren't twigs (not that there's anything wrong with being skinny, but alot of people aren't).
ok look daphne is amazing as mimi your all just more used to Rosario cause of the movie and also she sounded different 12 years ago go find the videos of her as mimi in 1996 cause there up here and than you can say whether shes good or not cant you.
I don't think she sucks. Actually, I'm warming up to her now that I've read all of thes RENT books and I understand her Mimi better. And she's much better on the soundtrack than she is here - who knows how long she went without singing before this anyway? Don't judge her on just this performance. If you've seen others, than by all means judge her on those, though. I love both of them; I just like Rosario's Mimi better.
....Adam looks a lot different than in the movie...He looked a bit like Sebastian Arcelus in that. Until I heard him sing, I was thinking, "Is that Adam???"
Hahaha. That was my favorite part too. Idina is so amazing. And Jesse always cracks me up. And in my opinion, I would have to agree that I like Rosario better. I'm not a fan of Daphne, but I don't think badly of anyone who is.
People don't know the show if they don't like Daphne? Are you an idiot? I have both albums, obviously I've heard both. I think Daphne's voice is crap, it's my opinion. That doesn't make me any less than you. Prick.
wow ppl don't nkow the show well if they judge Daphne's singing. This was last year in april for the 10th anniversary of the show. I love Daphne's Mimi, she's the best broadway Mimi. Her voice is raw and rapsy, very rocker whereas Rosario is earthy and smooth, sort of pop. The music in the movie is different from the show. Listen to both version of the albums, then you see the dofference.
I think it's only a matter of opinoin. I have seen the show when it was just starting out, and seen the movie and listened to both albums. It's not a matter of whether or not you know the show, just a matter of what you like. Personally, I like Rosario's Mimi better, but that's just me.
Daphne isn't bad in any way, but I personally like Rosario's Mimi better. I suppose that you'd have to pick whether you like raw, or smooth. I perfer smooth. Preference doesn't interfer with your knowledge of a show. Take CATS for example. There is a million different productions. I like Jacob Brent as Misto best, but I wouldn't think that someone doesn't know CATS because they liked, say, Wayne Sleep.
Just because ppl don't like the same things you do, doesn't make them dumber.
woow mimi cant sing if her life dependent on it she didnt even harmonies the song that good rosario diid 199 times better at this then her adam of course was a fucking genius at this
i just never liked dalphene playing meme when i first heard her sing i was like omg i cant belive shes on broadway
I have to admit that even though Daphne is the Original Mimi so for that she will forever be credited with the part...I prefer Rosario's...howere Daphne kicks ass in this song
I suppose Daphne is the sentimental favorite Mimi. However, not ever having seen her before, I feel no such affection. Consequently, I feel unfettered to say...she can't sing and Rosario is a better Mimi, and from what I've seen of Tamyra, she's better too. Not hatin'...just not on the same page as most others here.
Um, I love this scence in the movie better, and I like the mimi better...Her voice doesn't really fit with Adam's, but she's still good, I love this song!!

word up me too. daphnee sucks big time rosario is prettier and voice is better.
Kuniesha 4 years ago
I don't think she sucks. Actually, I'm warming up to her now that I've read all of thes RENT books and I understand her Mimi better. And she's much better on the soundtrack than she is here - who knows how long she went without singing before this anyway? Don't judge her on just this performance. If you've seen others, than by all means judge her on those, though. I love both of them; I just like Rosario's Mimi better.

I know it sounded mean didn't mean for it too i just fell in love with rosario's mimi. she's amazing and this one just doesn't do it for me.

Yeah, she was the lead singer in a band. And she can sing, but mainstream has put a picture in everyones head on how all singers should sound

....Adam looks a lot different than in the movie...He looked a bit like Sebastian Arcelus in that. Until I heard him sing, I was thinking, "Is that Adam???"

LMAO @ Jesse dancing Idina across the stage. That was priceless.
havemycake 4 years ago 10
Hahaha. That was my favorite part too. Idina is so amazing. And Jesse always cracks me up. And in my opinion, I would have to agree that I like Rosario better. I'm not a fan of Daphne, but I don't think badly of anyone who is.

People don't know the show if they don't like Daphne? Are you an idiot? I have both albums, obviously I've heard both. I think Daphne's voice is crap, it's my opinion. That doesn't make me any less than you. Prick.

wow ppl don't nkow the show well if they judge Daphne's singing. This was last year in april for the 10th anniversary of the show. I love Daphne's Mimi, she's the best broadway Mimi. Her voice is raw and rapsy, very rocker whereas Rosario is earthy and smooth, sort of pop. The music in the movie is different from the show. Listen to both version of the albums, then you see the dofference.

I think it's only a matter of opinoin. I have seen the show when it was just starting out, and seen the movie and listened to both albums. It's not a matter of whether or not you know the show, just a matter of what you like. Personally, I like Rosario's Mimi better, but that's just me.
PinkJewell 4 years ago 3
Daphne isn't bad in any way, but I personally like Rosario's Mimi better. I suppose that you'd have to pick whether you like raw, or smooth. I perfer smooth. Preference doesn't interfer with your knowledge of a show. Take CATS for example. There is a million different productions. I like Jacob Brent as Misto best, but I wouldn't think that someone doesn't know CATS because they liked, say, Wayne Sleep.
Just because ppl don't like the same things you do, doesn't make them dumber.

greenemerald152 4 years ago
I have to admit that even though Daphne is the Original Mimi so for that she will forever be credited with the part...I prefer Rosario's...howere Daphne kicks ass in this song
DeVonteKnightAddams 4 years ago
I suppose Daphne is the sentimental favorite Mimi. However, not ever having seen her before, I feel no such affection. Consequently, I feel unfettered to say...she can't sing and Rosario is a better Mimi, and from what I've seen of Tamyra, she's better too. Not hatin'...just not on the same page as most others here.
