"Alyssa Greene" Full Song feat. Ariana DeBose | The Prom | Netflix
/ netflixfilmclub
A group of down-on-their-luck Broadway stars shake up a small Indiana town as they rally behind a teen who just wants to attend prom with her girlfriend.
“Cause if Mom’s convinced yourself perfect, you father might come back.” Woah that line hit me hard....😳😔
IKR, wished they delved into this deeper in the movie
Same jeez
This is straight from her heart... Known her since she was 10
Same because my dad let me and I hate him
You are very lucky to have your parents together some people don't have them together I do I'm very lucky to have what I have right
Alyssa: *pouring her feelings out into a song to explain to Emma what her life is really like*
Emma: 😃
I think overall Jo Ellen Pellman did a good job but her constant smiling throughout the movie in moments like this really threw me off
@@romycaverly4087 ditto.
I mean, when you hear a singing voice like THAT 😍
@@romycaverly4087 yeah
Tru
“Cause mom thinks if you’re perfect, your father might come back.” That line struck me
Me too, that actually made me tear up! 😢
I don’t know about it. If there was more development behind her character it would have landed better. It wasn’t mentioned at all before and then it’s never mentioned again. Makes it seem like a cop out. Lazy writing in my opinion
@@TheGleeksrock it’s part of the song in the musical. So if there’ wasn’t anything mentioned in the show then there’s nothing to build off of.
But you’re right. It would Of landed better if there was more story behind it
I full on burst into uncontrollable tears when she said that with no explanation as to why. Genuinely couldn’t stop crying but I wasn’t crying for any reason other than the fact that it made me upset
Molly Pinks I agree. You don't necessarily have to mention her dad, but just any development of her character would be great. When I watched the film I was rooting for her and Emma of course, and was happy they got a happy ending, but I'd just like to root for someone that feels more real.
“the A’s have to be straight”
Alyssa begins with A, her mother doesn’t want her to be gay.
thought that lyric was clever
I don’t know if that was on purpose. but if it was, that’s the most incredible thing I have seen
Woww I didn't know that 😱
straight hair straight a's straight foward straight girl
That is so cool!
@@yyxyas Make sure you dont cut corners.
I guess you could say that she's a "Little Miss Perfect"
Edit: Nice to see that i wasn't the only one that notice the similarities 😉
THAT IS SO ACCURATE OMGGGG!!!
please no owl house fans over here. yall got your own fandom
@@non5025 that's not where the song comes from.
@@non5025 people can *gasp* be in more than one fandom!🤯
@@non5025 1) That's not where the song is from
2) Izzy McCalla sang Little Miss Perfect at a concert. That's partly what this is referencing.
3) People can be in more than one fandom
"You're not yourself, you're not what she wants, you're someone in between." Most tearjerking line, makes me feel so horrible for Alyssa! 😭💔
@Emma Donoghue For me it's probably the "Improve all of your strong points, and hide the things that you lack. Cos mom's convinced if you're perfect, your father might come back."
Or the second "you're not yourself, you're not what she wants" after Emma breaks up with Alyssa.
sucks that I relate to it so much 😂😂
Imagine ur mom being a total control freak and a bigot like that. I would b upset too
My whole life story though
I'm bi and a gynefluid demigirl both things have parts that lie in the binary so that line sums up my whole life
I'm so happy Ariana is getting the attention she deserves!
Have u heard of Bring It On the musical? She is one of the leads!
@@anabestie Yes I know. She was also an ensemble member in Hamilton. She's playing Anita in the big screen adaptation of West Side Story too
@@broadway_nerd5192 yessss more ariana fans :)
And I like how she stays humble and active on social media, i think her best years are still to come
@@TheNilyaAylin the first time I saw her on stage I fell in LOVE and looking hard to find her socials. She's done so many new productions, and now THE PROM. I'm just happy and I hope she becomes mainstream so more people can see her talent :)
Can we talk about how brilliant Ariana’s acting is in this movie ?! I mean her singing, dancing and everything else was also amazing obviously but every scene with her felt SO real like i’m not an emotional person but every time she was on screen i was really in the feels !!!
ABSOLUTELY !! every scene she felt so real and so natural; the emotions and HER TALENT are astronomical 💖
She gonna play Anita in Spielberg's West Side Story and I couldn't be more excited
Anybody else thought she sounded like Idina Menzel??
AGREED!!
she was amazing
Especially the scene when she came out
Whew! Chills 😩
100% agreed, her performance is really impressive and remarkable.
She’s my favorite actress in this film
She was I think one of the most famous Hamilton ensemble members, and seeing her sing and act in her own role is just stunning
[Edit] thank you for telling me the correct name of her role was "the Bullet"
She played The Bullet
she was in other musicals as lead too
And next year she’s playing Anita in Spielberg’s west side story
@@raellmoreland2373 and let's cross our hands that she's considered as Elphaba!
She’s my fav character in Hamilton, the bullet
"Cause moms convinced if your perfect, your father might come back." Damn I wasn't prepared for that 😭😭
My dad ain't coming back 😒
My dad came back but he brought his side hoe ;-;
That really hit me in the feels. Not having ur dad around is awful. My dad hasn't left but still it's rough for those whose dad's have
Known her since she was 10..
@@GBS1043 she grew up without a Dad? 🥺
The fact that they made Ariana look like a believable high school student in Prom and a 30 year old in West Side Story in the same year is witchcraft
Power of costuming and acting babyyy
Not really, she looked like an adult when I first saw this movie.
anita is not 30 shes around early to mid 20s
Not gonna lie, the reason I looked this song up is because she sounds 30 in the recording. I'll admit, she definitely looks the part but this casting really threw me off tbh.
OMG I DIDNT REALIZE IT WAS THE SAME ACTOR!!
the "no more shits to give" and the eye rolling are P.E.R.F.E.C.T
The way her hair flipped like yes Ariana go off!!!
Alyssa: *spills her entire heart out*
Emma: I ain’t reading all that
I’m happy for u tho
Or sorry that happened
I've seen a lot of comments about how they hated Emma for braking up with Alyssa and no, they both have their reasons and they are both valid. I'm going to be talking about Emma, she wasn't forcing Alyssa to come out but some of y'all don't know how hard it is to be in a relationship like that, be constantly hiding and with the fear of anyone discovering your secret.
They are both right, nobody is the “bad” person in this relationship.
Exactly. I've BEEN in this relationship as Emma and it's so painful. You're always hiding and being careful what you say and who you trust. It's exhausting.
@@RuthlessTides Same dude I'm out and I wish I could just be with my boyfriend in public but I can't cause he isnt out yet
I just want to say that the casting team did an amazing job putting Ariana and Kerry as mother and daughter. They look so similar and if I saw a photo of them together without knowing it was from this movie, I would say they were related in some way
I was looking for this comment bc I hoped someone else realised how amazing this was
I love Ariana, she’s so talented😭
Yes she is. And she's worked very hard to be where she is. I've known her since she was 10..
HOW CAN SHE LEARN TO ACT WHEN THERE IS NO DRAMA PROGRAM AT THAT DAMN SCHOOL?!
I’m mean it sounds like she’s had a couple years to figure it out
Don’t ask how or why when you’re Alyssa Greene
Maybe it means to learn to pretend that you like it? As in acting like you enjoy it instead of theatre acting
she has to pretend to like cheer
@@PopBandit lmao
Goodness, the talent, and now I’m crying.
ua-cam.com/video/5rq6I-A49yI/v-deo.html.
i related to this song more than anything in the whole movie
ua-cam.com/video/5rq6I-A49yI/v-deo.html...
THIS is the Ariana I want in the Wicked movie.
@@samrobles471 is not only singing but also acting and such plus y'all won't like it but Ariana Debose has a stronger voice than Ariana especially for Elphaba. Elphaba ain't a character just anyone that sings good can play it takes a lot for it. Cuz Ariana didn't really made Penny feel like Penny ( it felt like Ariana grande dressing up as Penny) in the hairspray live. And penny is an easier character to portray than Elphaba. Ariana grande could do an amazing Glinda honestly speaking.
@@samrobles471 I do agree to some extent. I think her cover of "The Wizard & I" was amazing and blew me away. However it did sound like it was turned into a pop song, which is fine because it was her version. However for such a huge not very modernly styled broadway musical, that pop cover would just not work well. I also think Ariana Grande, while having a broadway background, has more of a pop voice and kind of evolved into this pop voice (which nothing wrong with that but again for a musical such as Wicked her style would just not work). And I believe that if Ariana was to keep her pop-sounding voice and be casted, a lot of people (including myself) would be upset. Also Elphaba is also an emotionally demanding character and Ariana's acting is good, but personally I don't feel it's the most amazing. Ariana Debose, as we have seen, can do these super emotional scenes and out of the two, I would pick Ariana Debose (if you disagree tho, totally cool)
@Lorne Harris not rly but ok
@@samrobles471 Yes, I watched it. I liked it but I still think the role is totally wrong for her.
@@samrobles471 Ariana's enunciation is terrible, it's not about the voice, did you watch Hairspray Live? She's too into pop now to do theatre
Ariana’s acting was amazing in this!! She was very relatable and I’m sure many kids, including myself, related to Alyssa’s character. Be it coming out, or wanting something else besides the life your parents want you to lead you know your parents work hard to give you the life you have so you don’t want to disappoint them. I loved her performance both in Hamilton and in The Prom and I can’t wait to see her in West Side Story!!
"Ribbons have to be blue" cut to a row of multi colored ribbons.
Yeah, but the point might be that she doesn't always achieve that blue ribbon, so she's always being pushed to do better. And even if she does get a blue ribbon, she still has to do more.
She says blue ribbon as a reference to blue ribbons being exclusive to 1st place but most medals and ribbons aren't only blue anymore that's probably why they're different colors.
But those are medals.
@@AB-hf8lx It's getting worse!
“Your feelings have to be phony” really hit me hard. As a person who could never really their feelings to their parents without getting in trouble.
in the original musical this song was a soliloquy, so alyssa wasnt singing it to anyone. i really love that in the movie they changed it to an actual scene
So glad Ariana Debose got the chance to strut her superb talents on the big screen! She is terrific!
And now she’s nominated for an Oscar, wow
Updated now Ariana DeBose is now Academy Award winner (in West Side Story and not this movie The Prom)
I absolutely love the way she sang this. One of my favorite songs from the movie!
ua-cam.com/video/5rq6I-A49yI/v-deo.html...
Love this song. I think it’s so relatable to a lot of teenagers. But for me it wasn’t from my mom, just from myself putting high standards I couldn’t live up to on myself bc I wanted to be like my mom even though she never told me I had to.
Same honestly
This was my first time hearing Ariana DeBose sing and I immediately thought "Elphaba" - is it just me? She'd be amazing in that role!
Maybe she can play that role in the film
Same!
My first time hearing her sing was the Donna Summer musical Tony performance. I think she would be a good Elphie too
"Just have everything perfected by the time you reach 18..." I hope all parents will realise just how ridiculous and frankly impossible that is.
Also, are we just gonna straight up ignore the fact that Ariana Debose is gonna be in the West Side Story remake!?!?
I was about to post this but you beat me to it.
I didn't know that, great she is awesome
ugh I have to watch it now
She’s gonna be amazing as Anita
I knew this movie would be a good test for her. And based on what I’ve seen of her in this movie and Hamilton, she’s got the triple threat material down perfectly.
Yup there is a reason that Ariana was nominated for a Tony for her performance in The Donna Summer Musical. Can't wait to see her as Anita in Spielberg's re-imagining of West Side Story.
“Your not yourself your not what she wants your someone in between “ really gets me
Anybody else break into tears from the broken voice in "You know what my mother's like."?
The hair has to be perfect
The As have to be straight
You have to join the debate club
On that there's no debate
You'll have Bible camp each summer
To keep you pure and clean
Endless rules apply when you're Alyssa Greene
Trophies have to be first place
Ribbons have to be blue
There's always some competition
Or hoops for jumping through
Your mom's made sacrifices
So win homecoming queen
Cause it's do or die when you're Alyssa Greene
And you wish there was a world
Where you were simply free to live
And when people criticised you
You had no more shits to give
And in this other lifetime
When you tell yourself be brave you won't cave
That's the one thing I truly crave
But your feelings have to be phony
Your weight has to be tracked
If you don't like shaking pom poms
You'd better learn to act
Just have everything perfected by the time you reach eighteen
Don't ask how or why when you're Alyssa Greene
Improve all of your strong points
And hide things that you lack
Cause mom's convinced if you're perfect
Your father will might come back
You're not yourself
You're not what she wants
You're someone in-between
Your whole life's a lie when you're Alyssa Greene
She is amazing she sold this character for me completely. I am so glad she is getting the recognition she deserves. And can’t wait for West Side Story
Ariana debose is a powerhouse. I will never get tired of watching her perform and hearing her sing 🤩
I wish I look as good and young like Ariana when I’m 29…SHES STUNNING
@Rebecca Rosenbaum yep
29 isn't that old...
@@dxntloseurhead yeah but not every 29 year old can play a 17 year old
@@dxntloseurhead it is when you still look 16/17
29 is not old...???
"you're not yourself, you're not what she wants, you're someone in between.." that hit HARD omfg
I've watched this movie a scary amount of times...
I’d watch it more if my homophobic dad wasn’t always home 😀
Same.....I'm just appreciating this movie a lot and all alone cause everyone else is hating on it because they think the broadway is better and just leave :(
Staying in the closet isn't ideal for Alyssa but she feels like she has to be perfect or she'll disappoint her mom, someone who she still cares about despite everything. Then on top of that she's also trying to juggle a relationship with Emma. Now, I am glad Emma broke up with Alyssa because her feelings are completely valid too and she was no longer comfortable having their relationship be a secret. Secret relationships only work if both partners agree and are comfortable with it but even then keeping it a secret can only last so long. Emma wasn't pressuring Alyssa to come out by breaking up with her, she was merely saying that they no longer see eye to eye on keeping their relationship a secret and that's okay but their different view points make it difficult to be in a relationship together so the break up was a good call. It's just a sucky situation for both of them seeing as they are still in love but it had to be done. So for all the couples like this in the world support your partner if they are in the closet but only as far as you are comfortable with. You deserve to be happy in the relationship too.
"you're not you you're not what she wants you're someone in between" that one murdered me
Ari is so talented... There are no words. We love you Ari..
the BEST song on the soundtrack. 🤭
Second best number in the movie after Love Thy Neighbor. She’s super talented.
"Cause mom's convinced if you're perfect you father might come back"
oh god that hit deep....
STRAIGHT HAIR, STRAIGHT A’S, STRAIGHT FOWARD (sorry I had to)
Straight path, I don't cut corners
@Adelaide St. John Head out the student council
@Adelaide St. John I jam to Paul McCartney
I jam to Paul McCartney
@Adelaide St. John i was adopted, when i was two
If you take the song and set it to .75x tempo, oh my god it hits so differently, especially at the end on the last line “your whole life’s a lie when you’re Alyssa Greene” Absolute chills.
Ari's performance is phenomenal here. There's just this layer of genuineness, and it's amazing to see from someone so young.
I like how she is pooring her heart out to emma and emma is just there like 😃
Don’t you love when your pouring your frustration out to your girlfriend and she can’t stop smiling the entire time in her stupid beanie
Ariana DeBose does this charicter amazing. she really shies the emotion but can still sing the song amazingly!
"And you wish there was a world that you would be simply free to live" and "Cause mom's convinced if your perfect, your father might come back" really made me emotional
i really related to this song because im a supposed child prodigy, succeeding in all but really i do it because i cant face disappointment from my parents. my parents are somewhat christian and my brother and sister straight but i'm bisexual and in the closet. long hair is a must from my mom until my sister disobeyed the unspoken rule for the warren women and cut my hair. my mom is still upset about how i stand out in my family of russian dolls. i commented on my weight and how much sugar i consume every time a crumb is so much near my mouth. its made me insecure and i've developed anxiety from it.
I love this one! Now Barry’s going to Prom!!! Please!!
Top of my school, Little miss perfect and Alyssa Greene describes me so much
Asian kids: "Hey I've seen this one, it's a classic!"
Everyone else: "What do you mean? It's brand new."
ugh I love this song and this film, I love Alyssa sm 💖💖💖
*This movie was SO GOOD!!*
It’s so nice to finally have a song with your name in it
"the As have to be straight"
I see what you did there. Clever.😏😏😏
This song is so relatable
She is so beautiful
Ikr?
The whole thing struck me for what really got to me was "Cause mom's convinced if you're perfect your father might come back"
This is a very well written lyric, I must admit I did not expect it to be this good of a song. I really really liked it. Had I still been an auditioning girl, I would most likely have considered adding this to my repertoire
Hi Netflix, please consider renewing these representative, meaningful shows:
- *the society*
- *anne with an e*
- *I am not okay with this*
thank you, have a great xmas! ☺️❤
Im not okay with this is very cancelled =( even the actor spoiled the ending because there is no chance
@@catto247 i need the society the most tbh
@@sonam10107 I hope they do renew them, they were so good!
I mean come on Netflix! The society is done with the writing and is waiting to be filmed! Give us at least something!
Anne with an e has at least kind of an ending, but those two other shows don't. Come ooooonnnn pleeeeaaaasseee
@@Sophie-ru9ir I NEED THE SOCIETY S2 :(
Besides the flaws this movie for sure has, Ariana as Alyssa is just perfect. She's incredibly talented
She's the entire reason I wanted to watch it.
@@jamesnugent2213 same, honestly
I knew there was something in her Broadway has seen in her too
This song gets me every time, i know the feeling way too well
I love how she sings and this is one of my favorites from the musical but Izzy McCalla is unbeatable.
Ariana DeBose did an amazing job playing Alyssa Greene
I haven't watch this movie/series but her voice is amazing! This song is amazing!
Best performance in the entire film.
YAS FINALLY, I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS TO GET UPLOADED EVER SINCE THE MOVIE CAME OUT 😩
I love Arianna’s voice so much in this movie!
The whole cast of Hamilton is in their bag😭
She is so brilliant, I wish more people appreciated this movie.
I can't believe she is that beautiful dancer in West Side Story, she is gonna to win a Oscar
And she did 😌😁
Princess Ashaaaaaaa 💜💜💜
Thanks for getting me the name of a song Netflix. Also this song when it says: “Cause mom convinced if you’re perfect, your father might come back.” That for some people *HITS*
Best movie and song everrrrrrrr
This- this is too relatable for comfort
I don't know why but this song gives me massive Wicked-Vibes and I love it 💕
I relate to Alyssa Greene so much. I've always been the "Little Miss Perfect" type of person. Straight hair, straight A's, straight girl, except I'm not straight, I'm bisexual
"You're not yourself, you're not what she wants, you're someone in between" had me ugly crying
The ONLY plot hole I found in this movie was that Alyssa's mom didn't find it the tiniest bit suspicious that her daughter, who she demanded perfection out of, didn't have a straight date to the prom. She was just totally okay with her going stag....to the prom.
This is the woman who said she had to win homecoming queen. And in that scene clearly had a date since the king was wearing the same color as her.
Pretty awkward
this song hit hard
So glad she gets to star in a Disney movie this year
Why do I think this is literally my life.
My mom is a control freak.
I lovee ariana debose
My classmate/best friend relates to this so much, I showed it to her and she loved it.
(Not adding detail coz it's not my place to say)
i've got literal tears in my eyes 🩷 her singing is so beautiful
I've been back and forth on wanting to watch this. Everytime I see a video from it I'm like "oh I need to watch this" but then I never do and I don't know why and I really need to
I love her acting in this❤️❤️
Okay but Ariana DeBose was AMAZING 🔥👏🏼👏🏼
I've watched this song like 5 times everyday since I saw the movie the other day AaAah, such a good song
THIS IS LITTLE MISS PERFECT
love alyssa so much
Hey, it's Asha! 😍
this is a musical theatre bop
