Waitin' for The Light to Shine - Best of Broadway 2006

[disneman]

Yeah, it's exactly the way it's supposed to sound if a bunch of uppity white folk were singing a slave spiritual!

[JahairasMission]

@disneman Thank you!!! The dude singin lead was cool, though.

[poop333x2]

[THETIGERCUB2010]

[yesyeesYEEES]

I'm singing this song for my voice lessons at school and my teacher referred to the way you sing out as a possible outcome once i've gotten better with it

[Theatrestephy]

I can't wait to be in this year's show! Amazing show, amazing people, amazing cause!

[gpwarrior044]

I luv the woman in back who is singing all the high notes...

[dbookin]

He has a nice voice but the way he is singing is too proper. This song you be "sang"

[novo742]

i like it, amazing singers, but to me this song is more of a lose lively song, the way its song is to straight cut and exact for me, great singing though =]

[RunzN2Walls]

I agree...this song is not meant as a perfectionist piece. ..Ruined it for me to be honest. Truly talented though!

[finland025]

@novo742 this is a pretty exact representation of how this song is meant to be done in the show.

[SaveTonight22]

[hoolythebold]

wow jase... you gotta nice set a lungs there! we never got to do those jazz tunes...i am well impressed!! x mia :)

[KyleBrumley1]

Nice.

[onln4jesus]

Very nice voice.

[jrbrook76]

Thank You! I wish I had more time to devote to singing....

[Ligaya1980]

i prefer the first half of this vid,

i remember doing songs from Big river when I was in Choir a while back. It was a lot of fun.

This is one of my favorite songs from this musical.

[sdkicks]

dude you're amazing. I got called back for Huck and the second i heard that i had to sing this song i thought of doing it like you. Sure enough i got the part! seriously man you're good.

[jrbrook76]

That's the most awesome compliment. Thank you SO much! This song has always meant a lot to me. I was SO excited when they chose it by coincidence to be my solo number.

[Nikkieli]

Who was that soprano? Relax baby it is not an opera.

[jrbrook76]

Actually, she was doing exactly what the score calls for. Listen to the CD's.

[Nikkieli]

Actually, it is supposed to be a "gospelesque" break. I've done the show and

know it quite well. So, relax it soprano.

[ilovejb4eva890]

you are really good!!!

my choir is doing this song for our spring

concert !!! i love this song

[broadwayannie111]

This song is so enchantingly beautiful :)

[charby2234]

YOU SING BEAUTIFULLY! but for real loosen up brother, get into it!

[jrbrook76]

Hehe...thanks...I was a little nervous. There were 2000 people in the audience, and I couldn't hear the monitors when it started. Luckily, the guitarist could hear me through his monitor. He was wonderful.

[MainManAndy]

This is an amazing performance of this song. I swear I'm your biggest fan...lol Don't get weirded out.

[jrbrook76]

Thanks...that's really nice of you to say!

[AngelAura28]

I still say you should pursue Broadway! You are extraordinary and certainly vocally ready!

[jrbrook76]

I have like, zero dance ability and not much acting experience...there are some roles I'd like though. I'd love playing Bok in Wicked. It's really an overlooked role. With my little boy face I'd be a really cute Bok.

[AngelAura28]

You'd be great as Bok!!! Also, if "Finian's Rainbow" gets a revival . . . you'd be fantastic as the Leprechaun!

P.S. I don't dance, either! We just won't be in "A Chorus Line" or "42nd Street"!!!

[Demiare]

impressive!! voices like that should be on stage more often!

[GnarlyMarlyLarly]

Oooh! Beautiful singing! A wonderful rendition of one of my favorite Big River songs. Excellent!

[jrbrook76]

Thank You!! It's one of my favorite shows...maybe someday while I still look young I'll play Huck!
