A letter that was never meant to be seen, a lie that was never meant to be told, a life he never dreamed he could have. Evan Hansen is about to get the one thing he’s always wanted: a chance to finally fit in.
Both deeply personal and profoundly contemporary, DEAR EVAN HANSEN is a new American musical about life and the way we live it.

i was nervous about laura leaving but i can see zoe is in good hands- er, lungs
Dude same I was so sad Laura Dreyfus was leaving but I think she'll make a good Zoe too
So amazing live too. I got to see her the other day and she was seriously so amazing.
I can confirm her current understudy, Olivia Puckett, is also a terrific singer and actress.
FreedInsanity I loved olivia. She was so powerful and it was clearly a good show night for her when I went. All of the swings had a good night
I wish I got to see Laura :( but Olivia killed it when I saw her!
My heart says yes but my vocal range says no
Lol same
i couldn't relate more
Actually, I'm an alto and the only hard part is the end. And if you can stretch you can normally do it.
Relatable
lol same
I just realized that Zoe basically expresses that she is not going to lie about Connor to make anyone feel better, not even herself. That is the total opposite of what Evan does.
Johanna Schmidt True!
Opposites attract
That's why I struggle to accept what Evan does to everyone
Possible Foil of Evan
I think it's a little bit more than that, too. I think Zoe is saying she's not going to lie about Connor, but she's also trying to convince herself that there WASN'T more to Connor. I think it's about trying to make herself feel better in her time of grieving. She's just lost her brother, but she didn't even particularly like her brother? So why should she grieve him? Except, of course you still grieve your brother. Because at the end of the day that's your family. So I think it's much more about Zoe trying to reason with herself that Connor was a bad person, so she shouldn't grieve and she shouldn't be upset, because she's afraid that he wasn't as evil as she thought he was. That he wasn't as mean as she thought he was. And the thought of that terrifies her.
She has the voice of a Disney character
Kayce Weathers yeah cuz Disney wants their heroines to sound like children. Lest they be confused for fully developed women.
She'd make a great Rapunzel.
Sounds like a more developed Marinette to me.
@Childishh_Kitkat
Oh *WOW* That’s actually what I was thinking! 😂😁👍

WOW SOMEONE WHOS AGE ACTUALLY FITS A HIGH SCHOOL ROLE

wHAT A CONCEPT
wrong musical, their profile picture is from a new brain, but it was also written by William Finn (who wrote Falsettos and a few other productions like The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee and The Royal Family Of Broadway)
Sorry, I'm just a huge WIlliam Finn fan. He ended up coming to a play I was playing the lead in.
Sloane O'Neill wait that’s not Falsettos! When did they have those costumes?
what the crap her voice is so good? she's a perfect zoe. also lets appreciate the peeps playing instruments in the background smiling at her because me too.
p e m m a same
Also love mcr
@Alexander Burris She sounds better than Laura Drefuss.
I notice that all the time, the way they appreciate her voice
John Stirret meh, can’t really compare the two
It's rather unfortunate the autotone has been overdone, the transitions sound so unnatural. It really takes away from the beautiful voice she has.
i feel like Laura makes her sound more angry, Mallory makes her sound more innocent and hurt.
Hello camp camp pfp
@@sidneymoore2198 haha yes
Well tbh she’s definitely all three.
Yet both works
YES YES AGREED.
Me: *absentmindedly listening to while studying*
Her: “you were the flood-“
Me: *is shook* “WHATTTT”
Sarah SAME I FOUND A PIANO VERSION WITH THOSE LYRICS AND I WAS LIKE "wwHhAAAT"
I think they did it to make it into a solo.
So it wasn’t like she was playing 3 characters.
zoey and connor’s requiem is opposite to each other and both sounded so amazing
Lol same!
LEGIT MY REACTION AHAHAHA
wait hold up it says she graduated high school three months ago aka she’s 18 aka she’s more successful at 18 than i’ll ever be
yup! apparently this is during her gap year. she was also a vacation swing last year I think.
wait really?? that’s amazing what an icon
An actual teen playing a teenager?? What a wild concept
ikr im actually so shocked like how are we the same age (all i do is sleep and watch vids all day)
You see there's this little thing called ambition
Her voice is so... smooth? Perfect?? This is the first time I've ever heard her sing and I'd already die for her.
Same 💟
Mood.
SAME
Her Voice Is So Beautiful ❤️
vintagecassette Zoe is truly amazing she has the best voice she’s amazing
I think she actually sounds more genuine as that innocent teenager. Maybe because she actually is one but she has that sweet breathy voice and amazing bird like vibrato. I just saw the show and her and Mrs. Hanson stole it! They were standouts! As soon as I heard her voice, I was like, wow she’s good.
She is she graduated this/last year
She has more of a genuine, brighter voice of a teen, which embodies Zoe Murphy’s character better (Laura Dreyfuss was also good but like many films/shows/broadway cast, she is many years over her teens and is less appropriate to play Zoe. Don't get me wrong, she was amazing but Mallory has a total different perspective of Zoe) 🤗👏👏I LOVE ALL THE CAST MEMBERS
Mrs. Hanson?
@@SCP-ve6ek Heidi Hansen
Really? I feel like Laura Dreyfuss sounds younger and more authentically Zoey. Perhaps it's just this particular performance, but Mallory Bechtel sounds very much like a professional singer, and also doesn't have that same emotional teenager sound that Dreyfuss had. When Dreyfuss sings it, you can hear her heart breaking. Like how I imagine Zoey would feel after Connor's death, when everyone is saying how great he was, and all she can remember are the bad memories and feelings; Becuz his behavior and problems stole what little light was left in the her parents' "spotlight" away from her, and also becuz her only companion in that broken family abandoned her, becoming a temperamental, violent jerk.
i saw her in dear evan hansen last week, and she was absolutely amazing. i was so stunned by her performance and her voice, and she really came off as an innocent teenage girl. if you're going soon or plan to, you will not regret seeing it. the whole current cast gives you such an amazing feel.
emma!! i saw it in october, i had chills the whole time in the music box theatre
I. COULD. NOT. AGREE MORE!!!
I'm going to London in December- my friend and our mothers got front row seats!
this cast is the best yet imo, her and andrew feldman are just amazing as actual teenagers
Jake New i totally agree, them being actual teens adds such a rawness and realness to the whole show and not to say, they both have incredible voices and are amazing amazing actors

I was really nervous about Laura leaving, but I know Mallory is gonna be a great Zoe. Her voice is so _smooth_ and she has that innocent highschool feel that is perfect for Zoe. It's awesome.
Agreed!
I definitely agree with you! She's perfect for it!
She also gives off all the right emotion.
Being that Mallory was literally just a high school student, she is more suited and she was able to bring a youth to the role compared to Laura who is a lot older.
Yeah! She was Zoe when I went to see DEH and she was REALLY good.
Okay, she has the perfect voice, the perfect poise for Zoe or highschool student, yadda yadda yadda...
But can we take a moment to appreciate the music? Like the 4 men in the background? Especially the viola work... blew me away!
Auggggh! it was a Viola not a violin, and yes it was absolutely gorgeous. (Sorry I'm a slightly salty violist)
@@samuraixx5192 geez sorry for being ignorant enough not to be able to distinguish between the two, I'll edit the comment😅

@@liamm.2663 those are the people that actually practice 40 hours a day
I just realized the writers mentioned one time that Requiem was originally a solo song. This is probably the original version of Requiem with just Zoe which is why it has the changed lyrics.
There was also an early solo version of Requiem called Hiding in Your Hands, there’s a professionally recorded version done by Mallory
In the book Conner’s ghost actually sees Zoe write the song in her room as she grieves over his death in her own way.
What I find particularly tantalising is that, knowing the rhyme scheme of the first verse, you can sense there was another part to the second verse that they still cut for this version. You can hear that it probably contained lyrics along the line of "couldn't save you" and "why should I be blamed?" or possibly "ashamed?".
@@theshrimp1657 just got to this in the book and wanted to listen as she wrote it in the book
@@buttrees1644
It’s so good!!!
I’ve been listening to hiding in your hands for a while but it’s just so ironic!!
The song is so light and kinda cute but her situation and the lyrics are kinda dark which makes it so sad but it doesn’t show her grief.
All I need now is a duet between Mallory and Laura!
^ This!
Yesyesyesyes
YESS PLEASE
YES
holy FUCK
What’s so weird is I’ve been following Mallory on UA-cam for years and watching her videos and always being like “she’s deffo making it to broadway” and here she is
Whats her youtube
Becca yeah what is it spill the beans
i need to know her youtube
I just found it its her name
SAME
I saw her as Elle I’m legally blonde like 3 years ago or something in her school musical and now she’s on broadway. Crazy.
For real? Amazing!
What i dont get it isnt elle witherspoon
ua-cam.com/video/cOm846bzBxk/v-deo.html she has her own channel where you can find her other works ^^ she's incredibly talented sobs
did she really play elle woods in their musical? that’s amazing! 😱
@@akaywololo theres a musical version of legally blonde! she has a video of a part of her performance as elle on her channel (mallorys) :)
Her vocals sound so effortless, yet are infused with such a perfect emotional arc. I really appreciate her subdued physical acting, as it makes the drama and crystal clarity of her voice that much more striking. Despite her youth, it's a very mature creative choice and a sign of an already seasoned performer. My university sometimes gets comp tickets to Broadway shows, so I've been holding out for Dear Even Hansen (yeah right!) but this broke student may have to just bite the bullet and shell out some dough. It'll be well worth it.
Hi this is like 2 years later but did u ever watch it 🥺
@@gabbiejsn lol yes... I did and for fairly cheap too! I was a total mess at the end... and Mallory was amazing of course. :D My goodness, I had no idea anyone "liked" my comment here until now haha
@@Truffleshuffle18 lucky!! I was gonna watch but then COVID :((
@@gabbiejsn I’m so sorry... I’m really hoping you get to see it soon, maybe by the end of summer? But also, the movie is in development, starring Ben Platt. :D See both!
@@Truffleshuffle18 so true!! Excited for both
I like how she graduated high school recently because she really had that young Zoe vibe
It's hard to believe that Laura was 30 when they don't actually look too much apart age wise. I love Laura but damn, it's really cool that Mallory is so young and doing this, kinda inspiring.
@@hcxwj
Isn't Laura like 25?
She just turned 30 this week.
Edit: Thank you all for your gorgeous comments... I'm happy others are able to find comfort in relating to my story

to quote some other comments on here, PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY YOU COWARDS. im so disappointed you didn't add it to the deluxe album.
Who is the coward??? Just curious.
Agree!!!!
@@simpforchoijisu.3234 atlantic records, probably. i doubt the performers wanted *less* people to listen to it. "you cowards" is just a meme
It is on the deluxe album. I own it 😊
@@dinah3311 not on the deluxe album on Spotify unfortunately
I love how she played this so effortlessly. She didn't 'act', she just played the truth.
I love the solo lyrics??? Her voice is perfect???? I'm quaking????????? skdjdhsjsksjdhdjghjd

The Snazzy Singing Asian btw I'm Asian too!
None of those we're questions so there should be no question marks.
elphbwckd suck it????????
elphbwckd you're correcting my intentionally incorrect grammar while you made a grammatical error in your comment uhhhh
Can anyone explain how she went from high school to Broadway? Like how do you do that? (She 100% deserves it don't get me wrong)
she was already on the radar as a young girl in the workshops of scott alans musical who found her on youtube singing his stuff. shes been involved in the community ever since!
That’s what I asked about Ben Taylor Cook and honestly it’s mystery
I don't know, ask Hailey Kilgore 😂
Addison Clark Oof! Yeah that’s what I meant, I just spelt it wrong 😐
Addison Clark I love it!
I have a profile like that on my Wattpad account
Alex looks so proud of Mallory, it warms my heart. The glances she keeps giving her radiate pride. He's so sweet.
Who is Alex?
@@lwp2001 Alex Lacamoire (on piano). He's a respected Broadway musician/producer/arranger/conductor/orchestrator and the music supervisor of Dear Evan Hansen.
Sabrina Granger he’s the producer of Hamilton right?
Leah Mayes
Yep
He wrote the orchestration (so like all the music aside from the vocals) for both Dear Evan Hansen and Hamilton! 😁😁 (Oh, and the guy playing piano)
[LYRICS W/ "NEW" VERSE]
Why should I play this game of pretend?
Remembering through a secondhand sorrow?
Such a great son and wonderful friend
Oh, don't the tears just pour
I could curl up and hide in my room
There in my bed, still sobbing tomorrow
I could give in to all of the gloom
But tell me, tell me what for
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I start to break in pieces?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you
And that my world has gone dark without your light?
I will sing no requiem tonight
["NEW" VERSE]
You were the flood that swallowed us whole
Refusing a love we endlessly have you
You were a fire out of control
The blaze that couldn't be tamed
Why should I have a heavy heart?
Why should I say I'll keep you with me?
Why should I go and fall apart for you?
Why should I play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you and that my world has gone dark without your light?
I will sing no requiem
Tonight
'Cause when the villains fall, the kingdoms never weep
No one lights a candle to remember
No, no one mourns at all
When they lay them down to sleep
So, don't tell me that I didn't have it right
Don't tell me that it wasn't black and white
After all you put me through
Don't say it wasn't true
That you were not the monster
That I knew
'Cause I cannot play the grieving girl and lie
Saying that I miss you And that my world has gone dark
I will sing no requiem
I will sing no requiem tonight
Oh, oh
Thank you!
Did I ask
Thank You 💕
not all heroes wear capes
She has such a beautiful voice. Also the fact that she’s still so young makes her perfect for the role honestly
Abygail Jolet totally agree. Like seriously, so many “teenagers” in productions are played by people in their early to mid 20s!
Benjamin Edwards exactly. And Laura Dreyfuss turned 30 just last week if I’m correct. If they are still the age that the character is they have less experience but have the youth the role needs .
@@abbyjolet4114 She looks like Amber Heard
Her voice sounds so effortlessly sweet. Its just so pretty. Its such a freaking pretty voice. I cant handle this
This is also the easiest song in the musical to sing.
in my opinion, Zoe is confused. she’s mad because, how she says herself, Connor denied the love that they always gave him and caused a lot of trouble to their family.but even dough she says that she wont play the grieving girl and he’s the villan of the story, there’s still love and pain hidden in all of that anger... that’s so sad
Very true. That's the hell of it. Even when someone who hurts you dies, you still mourn them - you lose the person and the relationship that you'll never have with them.
I lost my sister to suicide a few months ago and I feel her pain. It’s the loss of what could have been.
I think Zoe realizes that deep down, he wasn’t a villain. He had good in him, but he became lost.
Their relationship is really tragic because they’ve both done a lot to hurt each other (it wasn’t just Connor) but you can tell there was some genuine feeling of love between them
This is just
the textbook definition of perfect.
My dream is to sing like this girl.
A perfect voice. A perfect Zoe.
Why 458 likes in your comment AND no replies lol
Since it’s a solo piece for her and you might want to use this as a solo cover sometime...

Hi
tysm
After "you were the flood..."
It's "why should I say I'll keep you with me" instead of "why should I start to break in pieces"
:)
Eighteen and on broadway. Wow.
I wish I could do this someday but I'm really doubting it. She is a very special girl with an extraordinary voice.
Have her sing a much harder song live and acapella, recorded stuff like this is no indication of a great singing voice.
I think that Mallory's voice kind of brings the more innocent high school girl to Zoe, and Laura has the sort of bitter, beyond her years quality. Both are AMAZING though 👍
Why is this not on the deluxe album OR spotify???
I performed with her and she's the best you've ever seen.
I know right!
IKR
☹️☹️
All-day Gaming no you haven’t 😂
the decision to cast mallory as zoe was sooo good. i feel like she already portrays a high schooler so well (obviously she just graduated, but she has this innocent brightness that makes it really believable). i’m 100% i’m gonna be a huge fan of her when i hear more. she’s so talented !!
Should have cast her for the movie. She's the right age and her voice is absolutely beautiful. The perfect Zoe
She is
I’m late but I have to say that Kaitlyn Dever, I think, did great as Zoe in the movie. I am a bit bias because I absolutely love Kaitlyn and her voice, but I feel like she did a good job.
I happen to like both actresses, but I feel like it would've been worse overall if she was casted as Zoe due to the fact that they still had ben platt playing Evan.
I love that they're casting actors and actresses who are actually teenagers. They bring a new level of honesty to the show!
A level of honesty the movie evidently wasn’t comfortable with
1) i forgot how much i love the solo version of this song
2) Mallory is absolutely phenomenal and i cannot wait to see what she does after DEH
Quite possibly college
You know, Requiem was originally a solo for Zoe. Is this how it went?
Edymac think so
Yep thats what the original second verse was but There was a second bit to the chorus originally but it's been cut completely, i remember some of it, it went something like
'And why should you
get another chance to drag me through, one more round of tears you can't undo, oh I dont have an elegy to write, I can sing no requiem tonight'
And then into the second verse that Mallory sang :-)
Ellen Murray well remembered if that’s it, I’m assuming that “elegy” means eulogy. If that’s not the right words you should maybe go into songwriting 👏🏻☺️
@@ProfessorSassypants yep it was meant to be eulogy, I didn't even notice that type oops 🙈 hahah I'm almost sure that was it anyway 😂
Ellen Murray that was bloody well remembered!
can we take a minute just to think about how this girl only just graduated from high school then landed in a role like this
We are living for a survivor calling out an abuser on all their bullshit and owning their silent anger
For me what’s always made this song even more emotional is that it’s hard to confirm what their relationship was like. It was toxic obviously (on both ends). But we don’t know exactly what happened between. We have the story Zoe tells, and it’s understandable to see Connor as a villain from that. But we’re never shown or told if it was a pattern. And we’re never told or shown what led to it. He could have been angry, he also could have had some mental break and lashed out while disoriented.
Connor could have done this regularly to her: abuse
Or it could have genuinely been a misunderstanding: not necessarily abuse but still traumatizing.
I think it’s great that survivors of abuse have this song but at the same time, I wonder if Zoe was angry about other things instead. Like how she lost a brother and would never have one again.
It was a very complicated relationship and it could have been mended. Both sides seem to genuinely care for each other and that’s what really makes this song so emotional for me.
I’ve legit watched Mallory’s videos for forever. Pun not intended
pun intended, no? LOL
Haha!
Hmmm I think the pun was intended
All we see is memes, for forever....
We binge videos, for forever...
We watch still our battery dies, for forever this waaaaaaayyyyyyy………..
the new lyrics???? i’m shook
it’s ya boi i assume it was one of the previous versions from the second stage or something
Tom K could be! i recall remembering that Cynthia and Larry were never meant to be in this number to start with but i could be wrong 🤷🏼♀️
I know right!!
“the blaze that couldn’t be contained” i love that so much sjhdjsksj
@Tom K this was the original version from Arena Stage :-)
I wish she reprise her role as Zoe in the DEH movie. Andrew too as Evan. They're the perfect cast.
There's no chance that Ben Platt WON'T play Evan. He built that show with the composers from day one practically. Also, his dad is producing the movie lol
Where can I watch the movie version?
The movie will be released on September 23, 2021
Welp. Didn’t happen :( in terms of zoe.
Glad Ben is back though
Mallory: Why-
Me: *sobs uncontrollables*
Okay, this is great and all, but when are we going to get "Good for You"? We lost all three originals and I want to hear the new actors so badly.
yesssss we need good for you with phoenix, sky and lisa!
yyyeeeessss
Some Crazed Nerd YESSS!! Sammie is rly good too, so is Jared.
SHE’S SO AMAZING! I was upset that I wouldn’t be seeing it with Laura, but Mallory is so good! She’s a perfect Zoe!
EDIT: Thanks for the likes!
Same. I can't wait to see Mallory on stage.
Is she Zoe for the traveling show?
No, Laura Dreyfuss left. Mallory is currently Zoe on Broadway.
the fact that this version isn't on spotify continues to haunt me
This just destroyed me. Such a beautiful, pure, powerful performance. And a stunning arrangement by Mr. Lacamoire.
(Also love Lac just smiling in the background at how awesome Mallory is at 2:08 :D)
I noticed that too. So awesome. 🥰
When you first started singing, I loved the gentle voice you had, thought it went really well with the song; but then when you went into your beautiful falsetto I just melted. And THEN you went and put a ton of bite into your singing, showing the versatility of your voice; never the less I was very impressed. In short, you sound amazing!
I actually like Mallory's version more than Laura's. Don't hate me, lol. Mallory's makes my heart break and I just feel so much more than when I listen to Laura's Requiem.
@@wildflo267 Laura sounds like she doesn't miss Connor and Mallory sounds like she misses him but she tells herself she shouldn't. They're both very good
She's got such a gorgeous voice! Also, petition for Sincerely Me to be the next song to be given this treatment. I need a video of Taylor, Alex and whoever is the Jared of the moment singing it live.
Jared is currently played by Sky Lakota-Lynch
KL _144 sky is amazing and yes i need one to listen to on repeat hopefully on the album
One of the things that really stood out to me about this play is how Zoe must have felt the entire time Evan was lying. She describes her brother as extremely violent and unloving, so when he dies she basically feels nothing, but in this song she basically decides that no matter what she won’t grieve him.
I find it interesting. She must be going through some conflicting feelings already now that her brother is dead, but it must be even worse now that Evan has started lying about their relationship together, thinking, “why wasn’t he like this with me?”
Oh my god now that i've read this, maybe she felt like something was wrong with her? Her parents probably felt that way too.... Evan is saying how great Connor was and Zoey and her parents must feel like they were the only ones he wasnt like that too.....
This version should have been on the deluxe recording!
She just graduated few months ago from high school
Sometimes I look myself as a failure but nevermind
okay... i did SO not expect these new lyrics to be added. and when i heard them, my heart stopped for a second. i love these kinds of things when creators make a new version off a song and add new lyrics to it, just like they did with burn and first burn. it sheds a whole new light on the song, and also gives us more of an insight to how connor was in the family. obviously you hear it in the show, but not in the soundtrack, i always felt like it was kind of limited, wich was indeed the whole point of connor’s character but even in requiem, i felt like something was missing, and this just made it so much better. thank you for making this. best of luck to mallory, i hope she has a great time at dear evan hansen.
The lyrics were actually written during the workshop in 2015. There is a whole 2nd half to the chorus that was cut as well
The lyrics aren't new, they're the old ones.
Our Lord and savior Jesus faist
“You were the flood that swallowed us whole.”
AND I OOP
🤢
I swear to God Alex Lacamoire is involved with every single good broadway show
One second she's in Hereditary and now she's in one of the best broadway coming of age stories ever and from the look of it, it looks like Mallory is about to become a highly recognizable face in both Hollywood and Broadway and from this video I'm definitely going to be keeping up with her and look forward to see whatever she does next.
sHE WAS IN HEREDITARY???!!!! (I'm sorry I hate horror movies but I love her so I might just only watch the scenes with her in)
Wait who was she in hereditary. I don't remember seeing her in it
For peeps still asking, I'm pretty sure she played the girl that the son goes to with his younger sister before shit hits the pole.

Psychotic Riot she plays Bridget in Hereditary
My man Lac is JAMMIN back there.
cp star I never noticed how amazing and intense the piano part was in this before
I thought that looked like him! Is he just all over broadway?
no but he helped with deh and hamiltion and will be in a lot more
My heart says yes....AND MY VOCAL RANGE ALSO SAYS YES!! I feel accomplished!
I’m a Soprano with a wide range!!
:0 good job! thats amazing :D
🌸Easterpop🌸 Aww, thank you!
Me too, but I would probably be too busy crying. This song is just powerful.
Um when did I ask so shushhhh nobody cares
If Eliza hated Hamilton after his death this would be her song😢

Yes, but she didn’t.
Thankfully...
Oh..
Here
Comes the tears..
Oh lord..
Yes!
Omigosh SO TRUEEE 😆
Hey Nico!
Ohmy pippa's voice would go so well with this song
Mallory is so talented. Thank you for this upload!
tacobellisbetter - hello 😍
Sincerely me with the current cast would be awesome.
Connor Smith yeah! I loved Taylor when I saw him live as Evan but Will and mike were still in their roles when 8 saw it (not complaining tho they’re the best). I’d love to hear the new cast singing it
Samantha Victoria
I saw Micheal lee brown when I went, but from what I’ve seen, Taylor is pretty good.
Connor Smith how was Micheal? I haven’t heard him at all! And I haven’t found any videos with him either
Samantha Victoria
Well he nails the awkward and sweaty part.
Connor Smith so he’s perfect then
If Alex Lacamoire is behind the music, you will cry.
Mallory Bechtel makes Zoe sound more heartbroken and that she won't lie to make people feel better not even to herself
i was gonna comment something about her not quite doing it bc i miss laura but fuck me she's actually slaying so hard
I would greatly appreciate a Michael Lee Brown and Mallory Bechtel “If I Could tell Her” some time on this channel
Jayden L I think I’d kill for that
YESSSSS
yes mlb is honestly my favorite evan whoops
THEY WIOULD SOUND SO BEAUTIFUL TOGETHER
AFGHHHHHH
*00:44*
RESPECT TO THE GUY WHO WAS TOTALLY FEELING THE SONG!
Zoe: "I will sing no requiem tonight"
Passione: Aight Imma head out now
Lance Tidon “Kore ga... Requiem... nai?”
I could die happy getting that smile/nod of approval from Alex Lacamoire
Is it bad that I kinda like this one better than the original?
Hannah McWhorter no, the original was awesome, so awesome that it paves the way for things like this, improving upon perfection
Every actor puts their own spin on it. And it's ok to have opinions on which one you like better. It's enjoying different versions of the song. (As long as you don't trash the other actor/s, it's fine. Once people do that, then it's rude and unnecessary)
Not at all
No I hate this version
Hannah McWhorter yeah I love the original too but I like this one equally in a different way 😊
This song perfectly captures how complicated family dynamics can be. Probably my favorite song in the whole show! Seeing it in june! 😊
Ok but from the side she looks SO much like (a mini) Laura
She looks like Laura's little sister. I'm listening to both of them singing this song. And even though they both sing it differently, both of their voices and their intentions are clearly imprinted into the song. Love them both. Laura was an amazing Zoe, but Mallory gave her best to keep Zoe on a high note.
True!
She's amazing. And she recently graduated high school?! This girl has talent!
I CAME AS SOON AS I HEARD
it’s also really good to know that Zoe’s in good hands or... lungs in this case I was a little worried and upset when Laura left but I’m really happy with the new Zoe
This girl is proof that amazing and angelic singing is also the product of hard work, training, and experience, not just talent. She's been training and doing musicals since the age of 4 and she's 18 here. If you watch her earlier videos of her singing, she didn't always have such a clear tone. She was always a good singer, but she didn't sing as clearly when she was younger.
After seeing Mallory in the new PLL I had to come back to this vid, she’s just soooo talented 🤩🤩
The real question here
Are we calling these Hansendrops?
priccly pear pLEASE OMG
@@samanthanodine7126 HECK YES
#Han4Han
hoLY FUCK
NOW WE ARE
IF HAMILDROPS EXIST HANSEN DROPS SHOULD TOO
right so when can i start streaming this on spotify???
I grew up doing theater with Mallory, she was always such a star. Probably once a year on I go back and watch this video and get chills every time🫶🏼
Every day, I cry because this is not on Spotify
The best generation, I LOVE THIS 18 AND ON BROADWAY. ILL GET THERE, but for now ill watch this over and over because the musicianship is amazing
Jmon Flores can you not say that? Like this is why people get angry who are from other generations. There are no best generations. Take it from a millennial; every generation thinks theirs is the best, and none of them are because we all have too much to learn and too little patience to learn it. I do hope you make it to Broadway though
@@TheIndigoSystem Calm down, they were just sharing their opinion. And you were really quite rude about it.
Camera's Apprentice maybe I’m just not arrogant enough to think I’m the best because I was born some year I had no say in 😂 there’s not a need for better/best just be good
Audrey oh my god get a life!! No generation is the best. That’s something immature tweens say. You can be 18 and mature. I’m an adult yes, but so is anyone over the age of 18. Don’t bother replying to me it’ll only end in tears for you.
SHE'S AMAZING AT THIS IMBSJBDJSBSBS
OHHHHH, those soft, clear high notes. And a belt clear as day. God, I love her.
Broadway has given me several songs that hit how I feel right on the nose. This included. Today especially this song rings true with my relationship with my brother. He isn't dead, just toxic but loves playing the victim. I won't feel guilty about keeping him at a distance. Maybe one day I'll play this for him.
Same this song perfectly describes me and my brother’s relationship. I will always love my brother but he has caused my family so much pain by doing some bad stuff. I pray that he gets his life on track.
I keep coming back because I can't get enough of Mallory. Her voice is so perfect ❤
I'm the biggest Laura dreyfuss stan I know but wow!! this is so good!!! I'm shook
fgshsghs new verse!!!!! I'm gay for that
You ever notice the expression on Alex Lacamoire's face when he works? I get the feeling that he has the best job in the world.
She is exactly how I imagined Zoe. I think she is absolutely perfect for the role. Beside, her voice is WOW! I have listened to this version sooo many times and I still love it
Holy hell she's incredible. And those new lyrics? I gasped, this is spectacular.
3 years later and theyre finally acknowledging one of the best verses in dear evan hansen history
The producers of the audiobook got her to sing a bit of this song and “Only Us” in the audiobook so she was the first voice I heard singing this song and she is fantastic.
There's an audiobook???😳😲
OK, this is one darn beutiful version.
How the heck is her voice SO GOOD!?!? Seriously, when I first listened to this, I cried so much... It's so beautiful. O_O
I saw her on her first night as Zoe and she completely blew me away. What an incredible voice.
0:43 the way she sings “tell me what for” her vibrato is so pretty 🥺
That guy’s smile at her at 2:37 hhhhh he’s just adoring her voice
Saw her live last week. She's the perfect Zoe!!!!
