  • amazing, beautiful, haunting.

    I can't even type sentences.

    Just adjectives.

    legend.

  • The beauty of this performance is that he somehow makes you HATE him beyond words, and yet at the same time I feel his pain, and I understand. Jason Robert Brown hit the nail on the head with this song, it's so haunting; I have to say my favorite part is when he talks to the other woman, saying I will never lie to you, I could love someone like you. So chilling.

  • The last two minutes brought me to tears.

  • My english teacher went to prom with him. Gosh he is perfect!

  • It's just so...human.

  • SO. GOOD.

    Yes, Jamie is an absolute prick for cheating on his wife, but Norbert Leo Butz actually makes you feel sorry for the guy...almost gets you feeling empathetic for Jamie. The performance is so raw, so honest, so vulnerable.

    This clip is a masterclass for any singer in keeping it real.

    Thank you to the cmcguigan470 for the post, but more importantly, thanks to JRB and NLB. :-)

  • His performance makes me want to sob. I've listened to the soundtrack (specifically this song) about a billion times, but seeing him acting with it... Wow. It's amazing. Norbert definitely did it best.

  • This is just amazing, and this song, I believe, subtly shows off JRB genius. It's such a sad song, and you feel sorry for Jamie but you just absolutely LOATHE him when he admits he makes "conscious, deliberate mistakes." And at the end when he tells the girl he "could be in love with someone like her," it just makes your heart break.

    And OMG I just love the chords at 4:44!!! Everything just deteriorates and it's just wow.

  • I think my favorite line is "and then i start making, consious, deliberate mistakes." oooh. chills.

  • @dimugly2k5 retard

    

  • So....I made a backing track to this, visit btracks.com if you want to have a look

  • @DontGoQuietly Well his wife wasn't exactly 'fair', though it's still immoral.
