I just had the most amazing experience with this song. My high school is doing this musical, and this was our very first sing-through altogether. So this is the first time we did this song altogether. I've been a passionate singer all my life, but when we hit the final part of the song, with all the parts melting together in perfect harmony, I felt more passionate about singing this than I had ever before. It was so beautiful. I can't wait to see how we sound when the show fully comes together. I've certainly found my favorite song of the show.
Heh your highschool IM 8 and IM doing it and am also planning to get this solo saying as were only doing that start bit, jacob and sons and close every door to me and you also just explained how i feel about singing
Andrew Lloyd Webber is a genius, and Donny Osmond has the voice of an angel. You don't have to be Christian to love this musical or get chills from this song; I'm not. That part where he sings "I do not matter, I'm only one person" resonates deeply with me. I suffer from depression and low self-esteem, and have felt this way sometimes. I always do, to some extent. I'm only one person, my life doesn't really matter. My friends and family would mourn me if I were gone, but that's about it. The world would keep turning without me, no one else would notice. I suppose it's selfish to want to be important to the whole world, I don't know. It's not that I want to be worshipped or anything, but it's sad to think that one day I will be gone and forgotten. It's sad to think that someday I will be only a name in my family tree, a footnote in the life of another.
Ditto and just been left to rot by the mental health team and all professional support and lost my mum so very much real sent this as a reply to the CPN as what he did and let me down and did not do as he did no words could and ever will express what and how he made and does make me feel
@@amandagraham4056 Oh gosh, I'm so sorry to hear that! My sincerest condolences about your mother. Things are so tough right now, but please hang in there! Make sure to take care of yourself and don't be afraid to reach out for help!

@@amandagraham4056 You are important. You are loved by your Creator. I know what it feels like to lose a mother and feel like there's no one to give that unconditional love anymore. I was a suicidal teenager, long ago, when there was no mental health counseling available to average people. The adults in my life didn't know what to do for me. It was only through my faith and prayer that I survived. In my thirties, I had clinical depression (or major depression). It was different from the depression in my teens, and it was Miserable. At that point, I knew that I would not take my life, as I was a mom by then, but there were many days that I hoped that I wouldn't wake up in the morning. I had 2 weeks in the hospital and an anti-depressant that at east helped me sleep better, insomnia being one of the causes. I still needed in-patient treatment, but it was unaffordable. Again, I prayed for guidance. It was more than a year later that I was functional. About 3 years later, I received a miracle healing. It was one of the few miracles I have ever seen. During the deep depression, I realized that as much as my family tried to help me, no one could save me. People will fail each other. I failed my kid during that time, because I had to leave to get well. During that awful time, I grew closer to God than I had ever been, and I found His unconditional love. I'm sorry to hear that you've had some callous mental health counselors. I've seen some bad ones too. When people are not the ones suffering, or have never suffered as you have, they can't have empathy. They don't feel your pain. It makes no sense that they would deny you the chance to speak about your loss. One of the things I learned in the major depression was that I had buried the sorrow of the loss I suffered in in my teens. I called it Unresolved Grief, and I needed to let it out, through journaling (a diary), prayer, talking about my problems (to relatives and girlfriends), songs, crafts, shaving my head (I buried the hair as a symbol of burying the grief and depression), and writing letters to those I needed to and then getting rid of the letters. A few years later, I got rid of clothes and some other things that reminded me of the depression, in order to purge and start anew. I thank God for my family members that helped me. They gave me what the professionals couldn't. Because I didn't let out the grief when I was a teen and the pain was fresh, it has taken many years. I hope you are able to express your grief now and not "stuff it." I hope you have friends to talk to. God bless you, Amanda.
I saw this live with staring Donny Osman, forth row from the front. When Donny sang this song the next day I rush out and bought the Soundtrack to the Musical. His voice live is like butter.
We did this musical at school about five years ago, back then, I don't think I really understood the meaning behind this song. Now after going through a lot of hard stuff, I finally realise the significance this song has in my life and how deep the meaning is. A beautiful song that touches my heart.
these songs mean a lot I was in the choir and a dancer now I am 37 and my son is doing it in his school play this year. I know he's only 8 but I can't wait :)
I don’t want to be that person but like this song is just so GOOD- And if you take out the hopeful parts and just listen to the rest- it feels like what depression does to a person. Isolates then, traps them and leaves them in the dark, mocks them, leaves them to wonder whether they’ll survive. But what does it matter? They’re only one person.
I love this song. My dad went to support my mom when she was auditioning for a part in this play. One of the guys said, "Hey, why don't you be Joseph!" then my dad was like, "Ok..." So, he was Joseph and I recently went to see it and it now has a part in my heart. I personally love to sing this song and others.
Andrew Llyod Webber is great at writing depressing music. This is honestly something I feel like the Phantom(Eric) from The Phantom of the Opera would sing(which Andrew Llyod Webber also wrote the music to).
I was Joseph in my school play I had an amazing voice and worked hard to get the lead. My school class also made me this amazing coat my teacher even spent hours after school to get it amazing. This brings back so much memories. My dad cried when he see me sing this. Only time he's ever been proud and seen him cry.
I'm doing this play as the children's choir/chorus and people seriously downplay how much of a voice you have to have to even play that part in some songs 💀 especially this one
This really helped me and my class, my teacher wanted some lyrics of close every door and now thx to this we all know it like of by heart now thank you so much for helping us know the words. We are doing a play ( joseph and the amazing tecnicoul dream coat) and this song is so hard because it is so slow thx for making such a good video and so clear to see what the lyrics are. thanks - from me (kitty) and my HOLE year group!!!!!
tysm for this im doing this as my year 6 play and this is the joseph song you have to sing if u want the part! i wanna be joseph so badly so i sang for about a hour learning this,
Well Donny Osmond is LDS. (I'm LDS as well) we believe that we are all descendants from Israel maybe not literal descendants but through baptism which you find out in the patriarchal blessing you can get and it says what tribe of Israel you are in
NNN INE this song is from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, in which Donny Osmond was playing Joseph. Joseph was the son of Jacob, who they called ‘Israel’. Donny Osmond didn’t write the song, so it doesn’t matter if he’s Mormon because he’s acting as Joseph...
Auditioning for this play tomorrow. Looking at Joseph, Reuben or narrator. Still trying to understand the characters and how to act as a man. This audition shall be interesting.
Got here because of nigbone...episode 7... That last scene man...XD... Love that series... Also if you watched this then the 18:38 time at nigbone detective series of episode seven, Can yah tell me what it is in those and these comments???I can tell that one has a different version.
Anyone have any tips for singing this song? I'm an Alto but I need to master the song for audition because this is the only song we are allowed to sing

Donny Osmond amazing voice
He wrote this when he was 15 with Tim Rice! (Tim Rice was 16)

Now after going through a lot of hard stuff, I finally realise the significance this song has in my life and how deep the meaning is. A beautiful song that touches my heart.
Is it just me who absolutely loves all of Andrew lloyd webber's musicals?
these songs mean a lot I was in the choir and a dancer now I am 37 and my son is doing it in his school play this year. I know he's only 8 but I can't wait :)
One of the more "serious" songs in the musical.
Doing this number is fun as hell tho
I don’t want to be that person but like this song is just so GOOD-
And if you take out the hopeful parts and just listen to the rest- it feels like what depression does to a person.

Our Joseph when we did this at my school did so well it always gave me chills.

So, he was Joseph and I recently went to see it and it now has a part in my heart. I personally love to sing this song and others.
I'm not Jewish but this brings tears to my eyes. And I understand deeply.
U realise his dad is called Israel right
@@BURY_CF ??
I mean jacob is known as Israel in trade market and jacob is Joseph's dad
@@BURY_CF I don't think OP misunderstood that; I think they said they aren't Jewish because of the allusion to the Holocaust.
this is so sad but i like too "children of Israel are never alone"
"Children of Israel are never alone." ♡

Andrew Llyod Webber is great at writing depressing music. This is honestly something I feel like the Phantom(Eric) from The Phantom of the Opera would sing(which Andrew Llyod Webber also wrote the music to).
Grizabella from CATS would also sing this.
Also "the man" from whistle down the wind. (Also from Andrew)
IMO the two best “depressing” ALW songs come from Jesus Christ Superstar: I Don’t Know How To Love Him and Gethsemane (I Only Want To Say)
So according to Wikipedia page for the Phantom Of The Opera theme song, this song was Andrew Webber’s personal inspiration for that song!😄🤔🧐
My favorite song in the musical still listening to this in 2019
My favourite song in the musical close every door
Hearing Donnie sing this live is one of my favorite childhood memories.
this song is just fantastic
Sound of music: “Climb Every Mountain”
Joseph and the technicolor dream coat: “Close Every Door”
Both are great songs too! Can’t be a coincidence.
ive been trying to find this version on spotify and its near impossible. This version is my favorite.
just saw a local production it was great to hear this live again.
Same I saw it last night - UK 🇬🇧 RHYL - it was amazing
My school’s doing this musical and I’m auditioning for the first time ever with this song so wish me luck lads

He had a much better voice than I'd thought, and that he used on his pop songs.

I was in the children’s choir when I was like 7 or 8 for this play(our local high school did it) and this is the song I remember the most
I was Joseph in my school play I had an amazing voice and worked hard to get the lead. My school class also made me this amazing coat my teacher even spent hours after school to get it amazing. This brings back so much memories. My dad cried when he see me sing this. Only time he's ever been proud and seen him cry.

Siany Johnson :( but is JC Superstar still coming out this week?
Yes should be on Friday evening.
Siany Johnson thanks for letting me know!
10th April at 19:00 lol.
Nice song
Is there an instrumental for this version? I'm planning on performing this for competition.
it could also be really cool for a horror movie. Just sayin. but damn it would be eerily cool.
This song just reminds me of myself
Correct me if i'm wrong but i thought Donny Osmond was a Mormon not a child of Israel = ) = )
Well Donny Osmond is LDS. (I'm LDS as well) we believe that we are all descendants from Israel maybe not literal descendants but through baptism which you find out in the patriarchal blessing you can get and it says what tribe of Israel you are in
That doesn’t really make any difference, I mean do u think everyone who is in or helped create the Book of Mormon is Mormon?
NNN INE this song is from Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat, in which Donny Osmond was playing Joseph. Joseph was the son of Jacob, who they called ‘Israel’. Donny Osmond didn’t write the song, so it doesn’t matter if he’s Mormon because he’s acting as Joseph...
Yes. Donny Osmond is a Mormon. But he is also an actor
I liked the song
Love makes u think
does this video with this brilliant song only worth 139 comments!?
btw is this g harmonic minor then g# or
Auditioning for this play tomorrow. Looking at Joseph, Reuben or narrator. Still trying to understand the characters and how to act as a man. This audition shall be interesting.
Laila Gernert how did they go?
I got the narrator. Not Joseph but it's still a good part. Thanks so much for asking. 😀
Got here because of nigbone...episode 7...
That last scene man...XD...
Love that series...
Also if you watched this then the 18:38 time at nigbone detective series of episode seven,
Can yah tell me what it is in those and these comments???I can tell that one has a different version.
Sorry I ment episode 6
Nigbone's gonna solve all da crimes! Best scene in the series man!
What key is he singing this in?!?!
LittleMissBlondieCraft G Minor & Ab Minor
Hes singing in the key of D&O. That is to say, Donny Osmond. 😄 (sorry I'm actually completely illiterate in the technical musical language)
G minor 6 interval
Anyone have any tips for singing this song? I'm an Alto but I need to master the song for audition because this is the only song we are allowed to sing
Wow...

This reminds me of watching The Skorys
We are doing the whole play in our school 😉
