This is a pretty good duet, but Aaron isn't gay. I just wonder why Gavin didn't do this duet with his ex-lover, Jonathan Groff . Yes, I probably answered my own question with the ex-lover part.
Gavin was playing Steven Kodaly in "She Loves Me" when this was taped. That's why he has that mustache. I'd like to see Gavin & Aaron together in an actual Broadway show, but not necessarily as gay lovers.
@@noahg.6475 gavin actually said it again this year during the virtual miscast, but the original quote was from a broadwayworld interview he did: 'Oh my gosh! Yeah, I had no idea how famous... he is so famous! I had no idea how famous Aaron was. Geez. Yes, it was so fun... I said, "Aaron, you get to sing the high part, I don't want to sing that high." And he shredded it, and I was like ok there we go. And then we just did it, and had a little rehearsal, and got up and did it, and it was really fun. And then I get to the theatre the next day and someone said I had like 800,000 views, and I was like, "What?! I've never had that many views on anything." But yeah, it was pretty cool. It was so much fun to do. The only regret I have is that we didn't just go for it and kiss each other at the end. That was my idea at the end. I was like, "Aaron, what do you think? We get really, really, really close, and make people think we're gonna do it and then just end the song." But, we should've just done it and freak everybody out. Pretty fun.'
i'll never come to terms with the fact that people so full of life, so talented, so beautiful, always smiling and spreading joy wherever they go just cease to exist one random day. rest well now, gavin.
1:50 Aaron very consciously exposes his midriff by raising his arm. Directly after, Gavin gets up and self-conscioulsy tucks his shirt back in. I love this performance so much
This video was my introduction to Gavin Creel. I have been watching clips and tributes to him all day and crying. What a bright light and beautiful soul. Over the years I’ve read/watched so many interviews with theatre actors who name him as one of their inspirations when they were students or just starting their careers (including Aaron). He really was your favorite tenor’s favorite tenor.
Omg, I'm so glad you said this, because I forgot whose line it was supposed to be, and I always assumed Aaron missed his cue, but no, it wasn't even his line and he got it in there. THAT'S AWESOME
Aaron Tveit is fully straight, and he only likes beautiful women, which pretty much eliminates 99.999% of the females on this thread. lol He'll probably marry another Broadway star. That's good, because 99.999% of the females (and gay males) on this thread have nothing in common with him, as they know absolutely NOTHING about musical theatre or Broadway. Frankly, they're pretty stupid.
The vocals are brilliant! I was a friend of Jonathan and know he would be so happy that society (of which he was not always fond) would finally see two men doing this song for a live audience and obviously loving it. Bravo!
Jonathan Larson brought a new generation of folks to the theatre with RENT. The stroy, the characters, the songs and music; just amazing. I was fortunate enough to see it on Broadway with most of the original cast. Brought me to tears. I was so sad when he passed away. I shared that information with my dad when his family accepted his Tony. He responded by saying that sometimes when someone puts their whole being into something they literally pour their life into it. Somehow that gave me some peace. Jonathan is no longer with us but he lives on through RENT and his other works. His life was unfortunately short but his legacy is forever.
windmillsofyourmind2 All I can say is that was incredibly unnecessary...I'm pretty sure people can have differing opinions on who is attractive without being ugly themselves...
I love Gavin so much, Look at him. He's adorable???? With his pretty eyes and his hair and his face? He's the only person I can think of who looks cute with a moustache? And his voice is beautiful? Seriously, this man is wonderful and needs to be appreciated more
After watching this for about a hundred times I honestly can't decide what my favourite part is. Maybe the obvious grinding at 4:04, or the way Gavin pushes Aaron away from him? It could also be Aaron's interested and considering "Hm" or the butt clap that Aaron seemingly didn't see coming, or is it, maybe, all of Gavin's reactions to Aaron's whole verse? Or, possibly, when Aaron drags his hand through Gavin's hair ever so teasingly? Their vocal performance is out of this world. So many options, so little time. Maybe I'll watch it another dozen times just to make the decision easier.
This would actually be perfect for a revival of RENT. Like I know it’s supposed to be miscast and strange having the wrong actors for the roles but this actually works! This proves Aaron and Gaven can perform anything.
Aaron is my favorite male Broadway singer and Gavin creel is my second and when I just saw this today for the first time I almost died. They are phenomenal.
Having heard the very sad news of Gavin Creel passing away today 30th Sept. I felt it was only right to re watch one of my many favourite videos of him singing. RIP. ❤

Me too. This performance is legendary ❤️
I never thought I'd need to hear Aaron Tveit say "I didn't pierce my nipples because it grossed you out" but here we are
+Full House Cast no it's in the script, it's literally clit club
+I needed to comment i realized that about a minute after posting the comment, i went back to delete it but i couldnt find it
Stephanie le Canard I never thought I'd need to hear Aaron say "This diva needs her stage" and "cuz every night who's in your bed?" 😍😂
I needed aaron sticking his nipples out
No one is talking about "Gimme a kiss, pookie." Like, come on, that was adorable.
Dirk Strider ikr! It was! I would've kissed him if I was there
It gets me everytime XD
I was actually searching for this comment to see if ppl cared as much about that line as I did lol
I WOULD HAVE KISSED HIM IF THAT WAS ME. I MEAN CMON HES AARON FREAKING TVEIT! ❤️❤️😘😘
It's not exactly cute if you're Filipino.
Soon as I heard the news I had go rewatch this. RIP Gavin what a talent
Exactly the same as me, what an icon
same 💔
Same. This performance has lifted me many times.
tag yourself i'm the woman in rubber flirting with aaron

RIP Gavin. Heartbreaking that you're not with us anymore. F cancer...
y'all remember how when gavin was interviewed about this he said his only regret was not actually kissing aaron at the end?
I would not be alive if this had happened
I think he would have broken the internet.
When did he say that?

@@cgm530 One doesn't need a good reason for kissing Aaron Tveit. The kissing justifies itself.
I don't know who I'm jealous of, maybe the table because it got to have both Aaron and Gavin climbing on top
I vote this comment as "Best in Thread!"
The moment I knew I was into forniphilia
that table got further in life than I ever will
I don't know either. My ovaries popped at "ground hog".
Honestly this whole comment section shows that us girls can have dirty thoughts too and I love it
The real question: do I want to BE Aaron Tveit or be ON Aaron Tveit???
good question
Both obviously
*shurgs* Why can't we have both?
Would it be incest or masturbation at that point?
toomuchwanderlust I want to be ON Aaron Tveit
raise your hand if you ever felt personally victimized by aaron tveit
Who is Aaron Tveit?
Aaron Shruby he was in grease live
George Blagden please put your hand down
Lol
I haven't and I would like to remedy that.
Anyone else just laughed at how Gavin forgot to sing the "the straw that breaks my back" part and how Aaron saved it? xD

I'll always remember Gavin Creel's performance. Rest Peacefully sir! 😢😢
What a monumental loss. He was an epic talent and an even better human.
What a massive, massive loss in Gavin today. The whole theatre community will miss him so much.
I screamed when he hit the high note for who.
I'm so turned on right now wow this video cleared my acne, saved my grades, paid for my college tuition, and made my dead heart start beating again

Let's take a moment to appreciate Aaron Tveit's and Gavin Creel's glorious hair. 😊😍😊😍
HAHAHA! IF you choose to. ;)
And taut torsos. Ugh, my heart.
this hurts to watch now but i’m so glad it’s around, still can’t believe he’s gone. rest easy gavin you beautiful soul 💔
RIP Gavin Creel. There will never be another Miscast performance like this ever again.
This was my introduction to Gavin. RIP
Mine too 😢 RIP
Mine too ! Just saw the hair cast song at his memorial and came back to this 💔
Returning here to put a smile towards the almighty grief I am feeling. Gavin you are one of a kind and changed theatre. Sing loud up there 🕊️
.... I wouldn't say Aaron is 'miscast' in that role at all. He's a pretty good fit.
lol I thought the point of this show was something playfully like, "these roles were *clearly* miscast the first time, so here's our casting!"
rest in peace Gavin, you were, and always will be, loved by so many
literally one of the best male voices of our time
rest in peace gavin (: ❤️
At 3:35 aaron catches gavin’s missed line. We stan a power couple who supports each other.
Omg, I'm so glad you said this, because I forgot whose line it was supposed to be, and I always assumed Aaron missed his cue, but no, it wasn't even his line and he got it in there. THAT'S AWESOME

Never thought I'd cry watching this video of all things.
RIP dear Gavin 🖤 You will be sorely missed.
I've died of eye exploding because of too much handsomeness.
This came out THE DAY AFTER I sang Maureen's part for an audition (for a local production of Heathers) and got a call back. A sign? I think yes.
+Rose Congrats and good luck!
Thanks!!
+Rose No way! I love heathers! Break a leg! I'm kind of curious to see how you do
+Cristina Clare Unfortunately it was not meant to be - I did not get a part. But hey, that's showbiz :D
Rose Awe that's too bad D: But its good you seem positive about it! There's probably many other opportunities!
I hope Gavin and John Larson are having a great old giggle about this, wherever they are
Whenever I feel down, this is on my playlist of videos that makes me happy. Rest in peace, Gavin. You changed and touched so many lives. ❤
