I love how Jason is laughing, but then immediately gets into character, but it's no surprise. That's a good actor for you. What pros! I love the HIMYM cast so much.
josh's little punch in time to their singing at 1:26 is so cute, he clearly has heard them do this so often that he knows exactly the beat where their singing starts to pick up intensity
They got farther on the Actors Studio version - also, Jason kept the right key in that one - However, this is still still still so freaking awesome... Almost 8 years ago when HIMYM was still in it's 'infancy' - Who'd have thunk it would've had a glorious 9 year run? (Well, except for that ending part, but HEY, you can write your own!!)
Gotta say, this is the kinda "confidence" of singing I wanted in the Les Mis film. Don't get me wrong, on the most part, I think Russell Crowe and Hugh Jackman did well. But there were some times, especially when they weren't in musical number but moreso just "sing-talking" or when they first begin to get into a musical number, they kinda sounded...off. Like those people at karaoke who are a bit nervous or not used to singing with full force right off the cuff.
Agreed, this is more musical theater type performing and the movie was…well, more Hollywood movie type singing and who knows what it would have been like that they used theater actors
@@SCharlesDennicon Russel Crowe is an amazing actor but has a limited vocal range. If only they had Philip Quast as Javert in the movie and it would've been nearly perfect (Hugh Jackman, although with a wider vocal range and more experience, does have his issues as well).
I randomly started to sing Confrontation in the middle of my Drama lesson, and I was surprised to hear someone join in singing Valjean's part. I looked up and saw it was my Drama teacher. We sang it all. Best lesson ever? Yes.
This is fabulous. It's incredible how they can just commit themselves to it and pull if off so brilliantly on the spur of the moment. Especially when people are laughing. Talent at it's best.
During the face off between Hugh Jackman and Russell Crowe I was seeing those two doing that scene. I'd completely forgotten that this is a Les Mis song and was waaaay too excited when I recognized it in the cinema... what can I say? Awesome song, awesome dudes.
I have seen this musical live and i think that this is one of the best songs and I think that How I Met My Mother is a great show. The best from two worlds!
Guys RED FLAG!!! I have just 1 word for this 9 seasons that's gone by all to fast! 1 - L 2 - E 3 - G 4 - E 5 - N 6 - D 7 - A 8 - R 9 - Y Sorry, sometimes I just can't wait for it.... That's Mr.Swarley's territory ^^. Love this show and all of you guys!
I saw Company at the NYPhilharmonic on Friday and the whole time NPH was signing, I thought "He'd be amazing in Les Mis!" Low and behold, I stumble across this! Freaking brilliant!
I wish they could have worked this into the show somehow. Like Ted drags them to Les Miserables and they ended up living it and memorized it
haha maybe when barney's doing his 'play' from season 2 - this aired just before they would have started working on the episode!
I will never get over Josh in the background. He enjoys his life so much omg.
he is just happy and surprised that he is on tv
can I ask if you are jewish?
No I am not, full on African American here! #SpaceJam
Space jam? @@marca8052
I love how every time someone starts the confrontation they immediately start singing it in an English accent.
The characters have English accents and American accents ruin it.
@@TheCosmerenaut1 um the plays set in France so they should have French accent
@@SammiPDanton Since it's set in France shouldn't they be singing in French?
I want to see them perform a full version of this sooooo badly
0:29 that exchange of looks omg
I love how Jason is laughing, but then immediately gets into character, but it's no surprise. That's a good actor for you. What pros! I love the HIMYM cast so much.
Excellent. Neither one ever cracked a smile. They stayed totally in character. Brilliant on-the-spot a cappella performance.
So pissed off they cut them off before they got to the best bit!!
Dizzy Davis they stood up because they were about to get into and everyone started applauding so I think they just stopped there
josh's little punch in time to their singing at 1:26 is so cute, he clearly has heard them do this so often that he knows exactly the beat where their singing starts to pick up intensity
the cast is just like, "You should see them doing all the other scenes. When Neil does Fantine's death we all get really emotional"
They got farther on the Actors Studio version - also, Jason kept the right key in that one - However, this is still still still so freaking awesome... Almost 8 years ago when HIMYM was still in it's 'infancy' - Who'd have thunk it would've had a glorious 9 year run? (Well, except for that ending part, but HEY, you can write your own!!)
I really wanted to hear Jason go "I AM WARNING YOU JAVERT!!!" I like how he defaulted to the Colm Wilkinson impersonation.
I love Jason Segel's expression when NPH starts singing, like "My God are you really gonna make me do this?"
I can't believe Tammy 2 made Barney Stinson and Marshall Erikson sing Les Mis
Eriksen*
1:27 classic shmosby
Hahaha yessss

Russell Crowe was so bad in the movie that NPH would have been a less bad choice of actor. :D
@@SCharlesDennicon Philip Quast is too much Javert for anyone to handle hehe
Agreed, this is more musical theater type performing and the movie was…well, more Hollywood movie type singing and who knows what it would have been like that they used theater actors
Given the fact that all of the actors were abused and it was managed by a dumbass, it doesn’t surprise me

This clip seriously never gets old.
WHY DID THEY CUT THEM OFF, They were about to go mental.
14 years later, I must say I found my favourite video ever, thank you. Just thank you.
I love how I always come back to this after 15 years
And I thought I had seen every presentation of "LesMiz"; one of the best!
I found myself yelling "shut up!" at the audience. I wanted them to finish
WHOA.... i never thought i'd live to hear NPH sing les mis...
i can die now.
AGH cut right before the most intense moment!! I would've loved to hear Jason burst into "I AM WARNING YOU, JAVERT!"

Brilliant. Always makes me laugh, especially when Neil hits the table lol
This is the best thing I've ever seen. Jason Segel & NPH are amazing.
I love that through this hole video, Neil has that little smile around his mouth.
This is fabulous. It's incredible how they can just commit themselves to it and pull if off so brilliantly on the spur of the moment. Especially when people are laughing. Talent at it's best.
This is the best thing I've ever seen. I want them to star in an actual production of Les Mis now.... :)

I think that Russell was amazing as Javert! I loved his voice
I love how Josh reaches for Jason's high five and she grabs his hand instead
The bro fist at the end made it xD
i really loved the way neil sung it!!! just loved it and i cant stop singing that first part!!!
stop me from repeating it!!!
I have seen this musical live and i think that this is one of the best songs and I think that How I Met My Mother is a great show. The best from two worlds!
Why dont we all just admit that we watched this with our phones , holding it with one hand...
I wanted to hear Jason Segel to sing "I AM WARNING YOU, JAVERT!"
17 years later its still the best video ever
This is AWESOME! Les Miserables and How I Met Your Mother! That Combination is Legand... Wait for it... Dary! Legendary!
I JUST REALIZED THATS TAMMY 2
This is EPIC!!! It inspired us to post our own Confrontation video (a parody though). NPH is the real deal baby!
There is literally nothing better than hearing Neil Patrick Harris do an impression of Inspector Javert.
That was amazing! I am so happy right now, I couldn't stop smiling. I could watch those men singing 'til my dying day.
0:30 the way they look into each others eyes 😂😂😂😂👌
People don’t realize how hard this song is to sing
Yes. Just... Yes. Just, everything about this video was amazing!!!!
I can watch this over and over again
why didn't they cast THEM for the movie?
0:28 - the cutest smile
The first and only time i tuned into megan mullaly's show, and This is what I saw.
What great timing!
I could watch this over and over. In fact, I think I will.
My dream parks and rec and HIMYM crossover... kinda

Love this show and all of you guys!
I would love to see them do this seriously. NPH's voice is surprisingly deep enough to perform this part.
This is the single greatest video I have ever seen in my life.
forget Crowe and Jackman, show me Les Mis staring these 2
"How badly can you mispronounce "Monsieur Le Mayor"?"
Neil Patrick Harris:
BEST THING IVE WATCHED ALL YEAR
They do that so well. SO well.
...dary
Mmala Mokone so are you..
I can watch this again and again....
kept thinking of this throughout the movie.
That was so amazing. Oh my God. So much love for these men xD
This is the definition of awesome!
Painfully awesome to a life-long Les Miserables fan who has recently become a fan of Jason Segel and NPH.
this gives me so much happiness!!
this is the most beautiful thing i have ever seen
My night has been made!
Woow it was legen wait for it..
Aw I love Jason Segel! :)
This combines two of my favorite things on this earth and OMG it was so awesome
Just saw Les Mis, I finally get this! And I love it even more.
This remains to be my most favorite thing ever
Jason Segel is sooooo awesome :D
in love with them even more now!!!
god, I frickin LOVE this show!
This is the greatest thing I have ever seen.
Legitimately one of my favorite things ever.
This is why I love Neil Patrick Harris and Jason Segel!
These guys have AMAZING chemistry, which is why I love this show so much.
Seriously this never gets old. So good.
Such a talented actors😍
I saw Company at the NYPhilharmonic on Friday and the whole time NPH was signing, I thought "He'd be amazing in Les Mis!" Low and behold, I stumble across this! Freaking brilliant!
OMG. So great! Thanks for the upload!
I honestly feel like Neil and Jason should do a full production of Les Miserable.
THIS. THIS IS LIFE CHANGING
Hahaha that was HILARIOUS AND AMAZING! Niall is always AMAZING LOL!
How have I only just seen this? Amazing!
I’ve done Les Mis twice (one as Fantine, one as cosette) and oh my god this is probably my fave performance of The Confrontation ever
How have I never seen this!? I LOVE both Les Mis and HIMYM!
This is my most favorite thing ever in the world
This is why I love this show. The chemistry is just flawless, as shown in this song. Gawd, such, as MissPopPrincess would say, legendaryness.
Good God, this was unexpectedly awesome.
O my god that was the best thing I have ever seen in my entire 16 years of life that was amazing
LES MIS IS MY FAVORITE THEYRE SO MOTHERFLIPPING FANTASTIC OHMYGOD
Oh my god this is the greatest thing ever I can't get over it ahhh
I love them!!!
This is the greatest thing ever.
nice! i literally just watched them do it now in 2014!
