This is terrible. The harmonies are off, the singers are flat. Michael is stylistically inappropriate and riffs the harmonies into a train wreck. Additionally, I don't get the sense that singers actually know what they're singing about or understand the context of this song within the musical as a whole. This is disappointing. Also, @bwayguy17, Raul Esparza's voice is terrible, nasally, obnoxious and flat...so yes, he should not be emulated.
gooood set but the vocals are awful lovely direction :D
when people on here say things like jon was amazing i dont think he was musical is ment to be enjoyed and i didnt enjoy his flat notes and maybe he shouldnt try to copy Raul Esparza and tried to make a more individual character. but the set is ace tbh
Over all this looks like a fun performance of TTB. The set is great,you all have a nice blend but I did notice a couple short comings. John sounds like he's a little congested and is singing too much in his throat. Open up more and sing from the chest to prevent from going flat. Michael has a nice voice but I dislike the riffs. You all had a great blend in the 'wondering why' melody. From there on out it sounded great. And John, stop moving like you're doing the 'I gotta pee!' dance so much! XD
Thank you, thank you, thank you! You brought a whole part of Jonathan Larsen to me that I never knew about! Spiro, Sebastian and Katie - you were an awesome ensemble. This video brings back all the emotion! Katie - We are so proud of you!
I dont like their voices...but love this song...so I like it:D

@tomjomoore i agree with you. Raul has his very own, very special sound and shouldn't be tried to be emulated in any way.

He's good. But he sounds a little muppet-y.

The actor playing Jonathan is FREAKING amazing!!! You actually sound like Raul Esparza, but with your own little personalized quirks...I love it:)
