Hugh would always cry during this song, which you could see very well from the first few rows. I was always amazed at how he made it so real at every performance. This whole part of the show was very emotional, talking about Greg's death, Peter having AIDS, etc. Seeing this show and being an "Ozalot" was (so far) the best theater/fan experience of my life. And I have to throw in a plug here for Hugh's new show "Hugh Jackman - Back on Broadway". If you can possibly see it, you need to!

This song really touches me deeply, I've been listening to it over and over again. Great performance!
-
This version of the song makes me cry every time I watch it... amazing and truly magical!
-
is it true that gregory and peter's relation last for 15 years.....wow.....

ok this just killed me..

@semelecharter granted. I just wasn't thinking about the fact that this song exists outside the musical, and just meant to address it in reference to your comment about Jarrod. brevity I guess doesn't work on youtube.

@sirimarias - no argument about the atmosphere of the particular scene in this particular play, which was clearly manufactured to be soft and sweet. What I took issue with was your statement that "it's not really that kind of song." Completely different argument.

@semelecharter maybe (my feelings about Newton-John's version are rather mild at best), but here, in this context? I don't know that it needs it. The sweetness and the vulnerability of this performance is enough at least for me, and in a way I think the low-keyed simplicity of it conveys more than stunning vocal prowess would, or at least, does so differently. I guess it's a matter of taste.

@sirimarias - I don't know what you mean. Olivia soaringly belts parts of the song, so it certainly has most famously been "that kind of song."
-
@semelecharter it's not really that kind of song.
I absolutely adore Hugh Jackman!!! Jarrod Emick was outstanding in this and his voice is, as 'actoguy' said, ANGELIC, I especially love it because it has a kind of countrynss to it. aaah don't ya just love a man that can sing!!

This was beautifully sung, beautifully staged and beautifully acted by both performers.
