- 🎉THE 8-BIT BIG BAND // BE MORE CHILL CROSS OVER FEATURING BROADWAY'S GEORGE SALAZAR AND WILL ROLAND🎉NOW AVAILABLE ON SPOTIFY/APPLE MUSIC/AMAZON/ETC STREAMING SERVICES
Fellow fans of the Broadway musical Be More Chill please join me in this feat of collaboration celebrating the upcoming Broadway run of BE MORE CHILL! I've always loved the song "Two Player Game" from this show because it's lyrical content is all about getting through life with your player 2 by your side, so I felt like it was a perfect song for me to expand for a full size 20 musician Funk Big Band with 14 horns, along with "Michael Mell" and "Jeremy Heere" performers Will and George singing along with the band in the studio! Original music and lyrics by one of my favorite collaborators, Joe Iconis ! CHECK HIM OUT!
💊Hope you enjoy this song from our favorite retro video game inspired broadway show, which is an anthem for friends/gamers who stick it out with each other through thick and thin 💊
And in the immortal words of Chloe Valentine, "😃💄🐾"

No hate Heere. All love for the show and this amazing band 😍
*i noticed that joke*
No hate Jeremy HEERE
Amen
HECK YEAH!!!
@@cookieboijackuwu9349 I SEE YOUR VIRGIL PFP
Its official. You can only play the role of Jeremy Heere if your name is Will.
my name is -Hannah- WILL... Johnson...
Can you only play Michael if your name is George?
@@nuhuhitsgreywater Well, there haven't been any other Georges playing Michael. There's only been the one. But, if the next one is a George, then Michael shall only be Georges.
That's how it went with the Wills and here we are.
Michael Mell you can only play Michael if you’re George Salazar, actually, no exceptions.

I NEED AN OBC RIGHT NOW!!!!
Stinky Norsk yesssssss

@@olliedavis4531 I'M STILL WAITING, IT MIGHT BE RELEASED THIS WEEK, I HAVE HIGH HIGH HOPES, I WANT A OBC SOUNDTRACK NOW
Can we put this on the obc soundtrack for bmc plz? CAUSE WILL ROLAND’S VOCALS AND THAT KEY CHANGE AND THAT SAX SOLO UNFFFFFF😭😭
Thespiafangirls I swear to God if Ghostlight doesn’t put this in the OBC and Joe Iconis doesn’t let the 8-Bit Bit Band be part of the pit orchestra, I’m smashing my BMC vinyl discs.
The 8-Bit Big Band that’s comforting! It honestly sucks that this cover won’t be used because of the the investors and press going to the show, but this is one of the best renditions yet!
This and loser geek or whatever seem to be the only time I’ve heard will rolands voice shine!
RIGHTTTTT HNGGGGG
YOUR COMMENT GOT A HEART OMG
friends: please dont be extra--
me:
Same
Oh same
Me: SAX SOLO

I KNOW RIGHT
He was awesome in DEH but sounds even better here!!
Anyone know what that note he hit was?
@@scaredofbeans2866 Don't leave that was good!
Noah 3:23
WILL ROLAND'S VOCALS
@@The8BitBigBand They were amazing! I think I'm in love
I didn't know he could actually sing that well :O
Omg Will and George sound so grate together and the face Will made were so cute lol
@@The8BitBigBand yeah I can see that lol they have an amazing chemistry together when they sing and act together
Jenny Oran I agree but-great*
This is the version they should use for the movie tbh, just for that big budget feel
Wait...there's a movie for this coming out? Or are you just saying this hypothetically
@@goingcatty0532 Somebody bought the film rights to it
@@jordanbigford6066 ARE YOU SERIOUS???
tHERES A MOVIE?
The only movie I don’t want to be exactly like the book.
[SCREAMS] OMG YES WILL ROLAND AND GEORGE SALAZAR TWO PLAYER GAME
Dear lord I struggled to breathe at the sax solo and the key change killed me
WILL ROLAND BELTING
Nice profile pic
I love the profile pic
@@notscarlet8321 thank you👌

WILLS VOCALS GOT ME SHOOK
Why are Will Roland & George Salazar literally moods?
They're both moods and icons sksksks
7 people were crying tears of joy so much that they accidentally missed the like button
3:24 That's all I have to say
I NEARLY CHOKED ON MY SODA BC I WAS SO SHOOK
Y E S.
Vocals: ON POINT
Brass: AMAZING
Weave: SNATCHED
Hotel: TRIVAGO
I DIDN'T THINK I NEEDED THIS BUT...
*I WAS SO WRONG*
George Salazar please sign my liver
Will Roland gets a kidney tho
Nah fam, It has to be all bones because when you decompose the bones will last
This is pretty rad. Be More Chill is great, and I’m not even a huge fan of musicals.
I think you need to listen to more musicals. More specifically Joe Iconis musicals.
Will do.
we got em boys!
@@RandomRiot I thought of Will Roland when you said that😂 my humor is dead😅
3:23 HQOSJSIS GOOOOOD ITS AMAZING WILL DAMN AKBWWIEBEIEBEIEJEIEJEIEK
THANK YOU NOW I CAN REPLAY IT OVER AND OVER
The best parts of this video:
0:20 -friendship goals- relationship goals
0:36 that lil handshake thingy is EVERYTHING
0:59, 1:04, 1:10, 1:16 1:21 Will dancing is too pure I can’t
2:38 HOLY FRICK THIS IS AMAZING I DONT DESERVE THISSSSSS
3:24 THAT RIFFF IS AMAZZZZIINNNGGG WHYYYYYYYYY?!?!
3:26 woahhhh that key change had me have goosebumps
3:32 Also George’s face is sooo pure I can’t with this video
3:52 -friendship goals- relationship goals pt. 2
4:24 Elphaba & Galinda who??? Evan & Jared where??? Naw man, I only know Jeremy & Michael.
In conclusion:
George & Will are amazeballs, I didn’t deserve that awesome sax solo, and I need an Original Off-Broadway Cast Recording NOWW!!!
YES! I thought this might happen after George showed up for let's play live!
Yep! They announced it a little after that.
Will Roland be casually killing me with those vocals!
I never thought 4 of my favorite things could coexist in one video but here we are.
Also at 2:35 I took a BIG ASS INHALE BC FOR A SPLIT SECOND I THOUGHT THEY SAID "SEX" THEN I REALIZED THEY SAID SAXOPHONE.
As an alto saxophone player in my school's band I can confirm that jokes like that are made *very* often anyway-
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
_two player game..._
@@sugar-rice two player *-gayme- * game
Same
I didn’t hear it the first time I just thought bonus level
WILL ROLANDS BELT HHHHHHHHH
*Is in a school band* OMG THAT SAX SOLO THO- WHY IS THIS SO INSPIRING?!?!?!!!!!
Irk?! As soon as I heard him, I had a strong urge to pick up my alto. I'm living on my last reed tho 😅
Musical Waffles haha us flutes don’t need to worry about that!😏😏
Danielle Alexanian Haha brass is better 😊
(Kidding, kidding)
This song has absolutely no chill. From the beginning it turns 2 player game into an instrumental extravaganza with fantastic vocals and I'm like: ok this is already amazing it can't possibly get any better.
And then there's a SAX SOLO??? dude my mind was exloding for the whole 50 seconds it was going on.
And then will's note straight after???
Crops? Watered.
Wig? Snatched?
I think I projected onto another plane of existence there. This whole song was like 5 consecutive slaps to the face
Okay, I love the original soundtrack, but this version honestly beats every song on there.
Literally every time I listen to it the band, George & Will, and everything else is honestly gorgeous.
This is definitely one of the things you hear as you enter Heaven.
Madeline Adair IKR?!?! I need this on iTunes!!!
IS THIS A DREAM?!
When I think that neither George nor Will can surpass themselves, this video comes. I LOVED THE SAX SOLO AND THE REST OF THE SONG, THE INSTRUMENTS WERE INCREDIBLE OMGOMHOMG
YES IT'S FINALLY HERE
I'VE WAITING FOR THIS SINCE THAT SHORT CLIP ON THEIR INSTA
THEIR VOCALS
THAT GUY PLAYING SAXOPHONE
WILL AND HIS HIGH NOTES ARE JUST 👌👌👌👌
AND EVERYTHING IN THIS VIDEO IS WONDERFUL
I got to view it early!
THAT "YEAH" THAT WILL DOES AT 3:24 IS MY RELIGION
SAX SOLOOOOOO
Oh hi Liana! Fancy seeing you here!
My life is COMPLETE! This was and always will be amazing!!!
Will: his vocals are AMAZING!
George: umm hello! It’s George!!
Anddd can we talk about about the instruments!!
This whole thing makes me so happy!!! Haha
WILL’S HIGH NOTE AT 3:24 JUST CURED MY DEPRESSION 💖
WILLS HIGH NOTE DURING THE SAX SOLO OMFG YES
Frickin’ amazing as ever. I’m impressed by the sax player: a bit of a wonky groove to improvise over, but he nailed it! Still waiting for that MK8 cover 😎
OH MAN THIS IS A BOP AND A HALF. Is this gonna be on apple music or itunes???
please put it on spotify too!
Guuuuuuuuuuurl I've never agreed with anyone like this before
The 8-Bit Big Band Thank god!!!!
lmao don't mind me i'm just sobbing because this is *perfect*
IM HAPPY STIMMING, THEIR VOCALS ARE INCREDIBLE!! THAT RIFF AT 3:22 WAS OFF THE CHART!

@@emminet thanks! :]
*intensifies* OH MY LORD I HAVE BEEN BLESSED!!!! GEORGE IS AMAZING (AS ALWAYS) AND WILLS VOICE IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!! at first I honestly didn't like the insanley cool Jared klienman, would make a good, insanley Awkward Jeremy heere, but now THAT IM LISTENING TO THIER VOICES TOGETHER ITS LIKE HEAVEN!!!!
i love how you're praising george and your username is michael mell it's fucking great XDD
I was literally smiling and giggling the whole time
Same
INCREDIBLE
WAIT HELLO??????? WHY HAVENT I SEEN THIS YET???? all theatre kids and jazz enthusiasts are quaking
I absolutely love this... the original sounds great, but the live band sounds INCREDIBLE!!! Please have this included in the Broadway Recording!!!!
3:23 i just nUttEd
Holy shit, will and george did so great in this and the band too! But i just really love will and I'm so happy seeing him finally sing so much more like honestly that was really good
at 3:53 i died right there and then OMG THAT NOTE THERE WAS SO GOOD
My favorite musical my favorite song from that show and my favorite band? WHAT A CROSSOVER
UH... YES?!? I LOVE THIS?!?!

HOLY CRAP THIS IS EFFING AMAZING, THANK YOU FOR CURING MY DEPRESSION
wife
kikuado husband
Dude this somehow healed a quarter of the million broken peices of my heart.
*i love how will roland is always being extra as heck*
Will Roland might be passing George in the level of how much I love each of them
Oh my god
Your pfp
George looks SO excited when Will sings he's just too pure for this world
I am all for George's raspy voice. Like when he says "high school is hell" and "but we have each other's back"
3:23 my jaw dropped, THAT WAS AMAZING OMG WILLL
I’ve been so excited for this video for a while and it’s even better than I could have imagined!! Of course I love Joe Iconis’s work and Be More Chill and the original version of this song, but I also really love how unique this version is (and you can never go wrong with a key change). I’m sure this video took a lot of work but it looked like a lot of fun, too. Thank you for working so hard on this and sharing it with the world - it really made my day and I can already say it’s one of my favorite videos of all time : )
PS: I can’t wait for Be More Chill on Broadway!!
So glad I’m not the only one still obsessed with bmc this is amazing!
Will's vocals has improved so much! He sounds more like a 'Jeremy' than a 'Jared' now!
They blend so well! Also the sax solo was so amazing. I love everything about this. ❤
3:33 George pointing at himself and saying “me?” IM IN TEARS
Will conolly: BLOODS....CLAWS.....pause 😒
Will Roland: pause?.....I think you mean....SAX SOLO!!!
IM BACK AGAIN TO SAY THAT THAT TRUMPET PART IS SO GOOD AND THE SAX SOLOOOOO EEEEEEEEEE AND THE TROMBONESSSSSS AHHH
THAT YEAH AFTER THE SAX SOLO WAS EVERYTHING
I LOVE WILL
AND GEORGE
AND THE WHOLE CAST
My two favorite actors singing together
Will sounds sooo good in this!!
It would be amazing to have this of the whole soundtrack
Omg Im crying T-T This is so good ! How did no one saw this yet ???
because it was posted thirty minutes ago lmao
The 8-Bit Big Band UA-cam was drunk then because it showed "posted 3 days ago" when I saw it XD
GEORGE SALAZAR AND WILL ROLAND SINGING TWO PLAYER GAME???? THIS IS ALL IVE EVER WANTED I MAY CRY THANK YOU SO MUCH
what the heck will????? that “yeah” after the amazing key change was so good what the heck this band and these vocal improvements are making me cry
I love this and I love them
HOW HAVE I NEVER HEARD THIS BEFORE THIS IS GOLD
3:21 ....in case anyone else can't get over Will's key change
This will always be my favorite version of the song! If only there were an entire album of this.
I wanna give a billion likes, this is sooooo amazing
me, a jazz musician, theatre actor, and the actor for michael at my school production: *literally thriving🤪🤪🤩🤩🤩😁😁😁😄😄*
OMG THIS IS EPIC!! Will this be put on Spotify and iTunes?
I will never forgive myself for not finding this sooner
Its so cute how they work together will and george 😍
3:23 WOAH WILL
OMG IM DYING SAX SOLO INSTEAD OF PAUSE I NEEDED THIS!!!!
_Internally screaming through this entire video_
*_I CAN DIE HAPPY NOW_*
(But I'd also like to see this on Broadway first 😂)
The band and the vocals got me shook
How did I not find this sooner?!
Words cannot describe how much I love this
They're bringing the Try not to cry challenge back
This is amazing and you guys are awesome. Rosen, Thanks for leading the best band in human history!!
@@The8BitBigBand No thank you so much for making this!! I've been waiting so long for this video to come out and now it's here. just saw Joe and George the other day at two player game and they were amazing. I expected that much out ion George but WILL WAS AMAZING IN THIS VID
The 8-Bit Big Band nah lol😂 I live near ny so I went there on November 9th
@@The8BitBigBand wait hold up who am I talking to, is this actually Charlie Rosen or someone else running the account. If its u, ur a god and are amazing.
The 8-Bit Big Band omg that’s awesome!
As a sax player I luved that solo!!
Hi I was at the school's bathroom while watching this so I wasn't able to scream while watching this THIS IS INCREDIBLE
@@The8BitBigBand look,I have my reasons...
I just got into Be More Chill, and it's so rad knowing that the same person that does the arrangements for the 8-bit band does the arrangements for the show. It's an unexpected crossover between two things, and Charlie Rosen is just a super talented person.
AHHH I need this version on Spotify - Will Roland's vocals paired with George messing about next to him 😂
@@The8BitBigBand oml what really? :D aa this has made my day
George is trying to look at Will like 👀👀👀
This video is just so AWESOME! I can’t believe I didn’t see this sooner. Will sounds so good in this and so does George! Don’t forget the sax solo as well. This whole song is just a masterpiece in my opinion with the changes you made and just everyone in this together.
this is what's bringing back my bmc phase single handedly
sameeeeee
I'm currently learning the saxophone, and can I say that I dream to be that good. That solo was absolutely beautiful, amazing, inspiring and every other adjective I can't think of right now
Will is a mood omg
Will Roland absolutely freaking popped off with those Bbs
This deserves so many more views. This is beautful
I'm so happy George still plays Michael, and Will Roland is so good for Jeremy????? It's a bit weird because I'm so used to the old version but I still love this one so much!!!
