Daniel Boys - Purpose (Avenue Q)

[saintben2008]

doesn't sound right without the backup singers.

[Mshochat723]

I love this song!!!!

[moearly]

good singer, don't like the song though

[DC11961]

@xaLeXcRoMbleX It depends on where you go. Besides, who are you to call someone's American accent shitty if you're not even one and can't recognize the fact that there's more than one accent?

[DC11961]

@xaLeXcRoMbleX Just so you know, American accents are different everywhere you go, not just the ONE accent that everyone seems to stereotype as being THE American accent. It's just like if you go to Great Britain, not everyone has the same accent there.

[jackolas2007]

I soo fancy him :3 well I fancy EVERY Princeton actor, maybe I fancy the character or something D;

[Misslkjhgfdsa]

so beautiful :'( lol x

[animemangalover93]

Daniel Boys was amazing i was lucky enough to see him about a week before he left

[fudgmonkeys34]

im really sorry but i like john tartaglia's version better

[Jez32uk]

damm and i wanted to see him too

[bookworm266]

He's still on the posters on the Tube, though.

[ImperviousAffinity]

Went to see this yesterday, amazing ^^ X

[Bhandforth69]

Oh wow! Where did you find this recording?? Its amazing! I thought it might be on his album, but i double checked my copy, and its not on there :/

[catnip25]

I think he sang this on "Friday Night is Music Night" (Radio2) late 2008/early 2009!

[rockchicklora15]

i love daniel- voted for him every week on that joseph programme!!! <3 <3

[15LSG]

his voice is amazing, but i dont think his american accent is amazing...

[catnip25]

Avenue Q comes in at number 15 in today's Sunday Times "Best Theatre of the Decade"

[00columbia00]

@catnip25 what was number 1??? 

[catnip25]

@00columbia00 according to The Sunday Times it was "War Horse". If you google 'Sunday Times Best Theatre of the Decade' you should find the list :)

[00columbia00]

@catnip25 oooooo ok :D thanks :D

x

[catnip25]

@00columbia00 ...it's only The Sunday Times opinion though! But interesting anyway :)

[magicmike96]

he is very breathy idk

[toomuchfandom2]

Yeah you try and sing with a puppet on your arm all the time?

Daniel is a great Princeton/Rod

[allaine7]

i am inlove with Dabiel. i'll marry him ina heartbeat.

[allaine7]

that's perfect... i'm gay too!

[wallkewll1]

wow

[DirkVanuitDelft]

That's not a problem. That's fantastic. Being straight is so common.

[lacoste4eva]

Anyone have a backing track of this version?

[RubyLiuOnline]

i love that it's softer when he sings "it's a signnn"

[lacoste4eva]

i love this arrangement of this version.

[ValdezVideos]

You don't happen to have an instrumental version of this do you?

[coleflax]

He does in this recording, but I've seen him in Avenue Q twice and he doesn't at all :)

[tinngrinn]

I like it when John Tartaglia, from the Original Broadway cast, does it. Maybe it's just me...but I like John's voice better.

[indyguy52]

as an American i fine Daniel's accent just right nothing awful about it at all

[xaLeXcRoMbIeX]

@indyguy52 i know! i'm not even american but i have american cuzins and that sounds really shitty. like he cant evn hold down an american accent

[Lickmytoe]

I think Daniel looks a bit like Jon :]

[ChrisWales24]

I disagree. I saw the original London cast and then the new one. I was just as impressed with Daniel Boys are I was the original.

[JingoJingle]

Once you here the original so many times, it's hard to accept the new people, but I really like Daniel Boys in this song. especially after the song picks up a bit.

[ChannelTin]

saw him and huged him =]

hes amazing but his american acent is awful

[willdog8975]

YES!

Thank you

and he can not puppeteer

I am 14 years old and I have been puppeteering longer then he has I can tell you that :P

[muppetlover16]

@willdog8975 You know what I noticed, Daniel Boys' Princeton sounds more like Rick Lyon than John Tartaglia, don't you think?

[PuppetsNStuff]

I love this arrangement!

[Noahsaark]

Lovely to hear this. On a completely shallow note ... thanks for the gorgeous piccie of him in the big woolly jumper xx

[catnip25]

I love that pic too! That's one very talented photographer (Paul Schnaars) - his other pics on Daniel's website are superb.
