Angel is sooo cool, the film is all about accepting people the way they are! Just because some people can't deal with it doesn't mean they should change. They are who they are, get over it!
Well, basically, being a bohemian means enjoying life and refusing to give in. Their friend, Bennie, gave in to "the man", and this song is all of his ex-friends singing about their freedom, praising everything.
Just because we are not over 18 or haven't seen it live that doesn't mean we can't be fans. It also doesn't mean we don't know anything or can't understand deep musicals. It is based off a famous opera called La Boheme by Giacomo Puccini. there happy?
Dear person who made video, first of all, i respect you 2° of all did intent give heart attacks in theater kids by writing sAndheim? If you did i still respect you
@milanosrp uhhm, actually angel is a Trans woman. she's a woman. she's in a relationship with a man. gay and asexual are the only orientations that she can't be based on facts we have about her that are confirmed. she is likely heterosexual.
+Athena Smith no. Angel is a she. Everyone knows that. We (Trans peope) get misgendered all the time, but most of the time all the main characters properly gender her.
+Athena Smith yeah he slipped up. Our Transness Is based on cis people? Nah. I'm called she a lot but that doesn't make me one. Collins also called her "she" in today 4 you. And in I'll cover you. And throughout the show. And at her funeral Maureen gives am anecdote of her telling a skinhead that she's more of a man than he ever will be and more of a woman than he will ever get. And mimi was talking about tourists that has never seen a Trans person before. (Though I think she called her a drag queen, but honestly Trans women have always been called drag queens. People prefer giving visibility to cis gays appropriating our existance than us.) "Brothers"? You realize Maureen and Joanne aren't sisters right? And they also said "bisexual, transsexual, homosapiens". So by your logic angel is Trans and one or both are bisexual. Either way....
I know I'm late to join the discussion, but I feel like I should help straighten this out. Angel could be genderfluid or another nonbinary identity accepting both binary pronouns, or just a drag queen. Many drag queens take on she/her pronouns while in drag though that wouldn't explain the "brothers" part. Angel's gender is never stated, to my memory.
tell me, what is the difference between a dress and a tshirt? aren't they both made using the same materials and the same equipment? stop being a slave to society and learn to think for yourself
I'm 12, seen the movie, the legal live recording, have done this in my drama group AND I've got tickets to watch it live. And yes. I know what it's based off. Leave all the younger fans of musicals alone
@SqueezeE Cheese My way of thinking? That Angel isn't a woman? She's not. She identifies as a man literally in the script. Nothing in your comment is at all relevant to mine.
Oh lol I was wondering what comment people were getting mad about and calling homophobic. You didn't like his outfit, that doesn't make you homophobic. If this movie was remade (and they did a good job) Angel's look would we vamped up and probably way cuter. Not everyone has the same style.
This song NEVER gets old...Its sooo amazing! "Hey Mister, She's my sister!" "We're close!" Then randomly... "BROTHERS!" lol
IKR!

I just walk around singing this, and it's the best thing ever. My friends that love this as well think its fantastic and they get it
You have no idea how many times my ex and I would kiss, and when we get an "ew, they're gay" face, I'd say "Hey mister, shes my sister."
Really my family is annoyed I sing this all the time
And so is my friends
Angel is amazing! You just can't hate Angel! It's just wrong.
This movie will never get old ^w^

*Plays bittersweet evocative song that TOTALLY doesn’t sound like Musetta’s Waltz*
Not the best song he's written, but strangely it works. It's almost Roger's motif in a way.
Angel and Mimi ❤️❤️❤️
lovee this movie love the message and love the music :)
i love angel shes amazing :)
YASSSSSSSS!!!

I adore this song :)
Actually in the movie they refer to Angel as a Drag Queen. In MiMi's speech. not trans
SHE DRESSES FABULOUSLY!
loving the typos

No, you don't know the difference. Angel is NOT a hermaphrodite, he/she is a gay man who dresses in drag.
Angel is my favorite character along with Mimi
Who else is on a musical kick right now?
I am 24/7 😂
AFTER I SAW THEM PERFORM I CAME OBSSED WITH THIS SONG
The way Mimi says the line about baggage is so satisfying
Now I can too Thank you for loading this :)

Mark is just dancing terrblely when everybody else is going threw a sex drive.
My life
Mark has his camera!!!
it was the early 90s.... what did you wear back then?
The spelling in this is awful
I've seen soooo much worse xD believe me.
+ShokuaK Same plus this is the only lyrical version that doesn't cut off with Roger and Mimi
At least he knew how to spell "Absolut."
the spelling in this is horendous...
Not everyone's first language is english.
At least he spelled "Absolut" right.
Uh, under 18, but I've done b and c lol and so have many, many others. :)
the spelling i-
I always thought that Angel was a gay drag queen, since Collins loved hir...but I can respect that.
He is a drag queen.
*she
It's Václav Havel;)....
i dont understand this song... will someone explain it to me, please?
It's from the movie/musical rent. La vie boheme meaning "live bohemian" which is saying to live socially unconventional in an artistic way
Yes. She. Angel is transgender. Born a male, physically, she expresses herself as the female she feels that she is.
He is a homosexual drag queen who prefers female pronouns and has a keen ability to bust a move in heels.
@milanosrp uhhm, actually angel is a Trans woman. she's a woman. she's in a relationship with a man. gay and asexual are the only orientations that she can't be based on facts we have about her that are confirmed. she is likely heterosexual.
Everyone called angel he.
+Athena Smith no. Angel is a she. Everyone knows that. We (Trans peope) get misgendered all the time, but most of the time all the main characters properly gender her.
+Lexi Burris that's not true. Collins called Angel he in Goodbye love and in this song they even said "brothers" not siblings. So Angel was not trans
+Athena Smith yeah he slipped up. Our Transness Is based on cis people? Nah. I'm called she a lot but that doesn't make me one.
Collins also called her "she" in today 4 you.
And in I'll cover you. And throughout the show.
And at her funeral Maureen gives am anecdote of her telling a skinhead that she's more of a man than he ever will be and more of a woman than he will ever get.
And mimi was talking about tourists that has never seen a Trans person before. (Though I think she called her a drag queen, but honestly Trans women have always been called drag queens. People prefer giving visibility to cis gays appropriating our existance than us.)
"Brothers"? You realize Maureen and Joanne aren't sisters right?
And they also said "bisexual, transsexual, homosapiens". So by your logic angel is Trans and one or both are bisexual. Either way....

4:09 Marijuana is spelled: marijaun!
@CloudRiviera Anyone who hates Angel is homophobic and just a terrible person Angel is amazing
They could not like him because of the Akita Evita situation. I've seen people who him because of that.
this is why you will die alone.
Who are you to tell anyone what they can or can't wear?
pssht go home, claudio. you're drunk.
you just mad cause her clothes shes a crossdresser shes awsome cuz she shows its ok to be diffrent just my opineon
When I hear sex Pistols I think of the Yaoi:)
@CloudRiviera Some people are cross dressers. Deal with it
She?
HUEVOS RANCHEROS!!!!
Can anyone say attention seeker?
How is it gross?
Actually, SHE'S not gay, she's a transgender.
Angel is NOT transgender. You can Google that information yourself. I’m pretty sure he’s a gay drag Queen.
I mean no offense to trans people in my reply.
Okay, then what makes her a woman?
tell me, what is the difference between a dress and a tshirt? aren't they both made using the same materials and the same equipment? stop being a slave to society and learn to think for yourself
Who hates Angel?
She was like THE movie!!!
OOh she can dress however she wants
((its gross cause its a guy dressing like that? LAME))
**mucho
Actually, she is biologically gay. She's also transsexual, which technically makes her straight, but just looking at genetics she's homosexual.
milanosrp she's actually a cross dresser. She feels more like a woman than a make even if she was born a male
how many of you are a) over 18 b) have seen the live production c) know what show this is originally based on?
Not over 18, seen a legal recording of the live production (of which I prefer), and yes I know what it's based off of
I'm 12, seen the movie, the legal live recording, have done this in my drama group AND I've got tickets to watch it live. And yes. I know what it's based off. Leave all the younger fans of musicals alone
It is when you're a guy
What's wrong with cross dressing?
Sherlock Watson there's nothing wrong with cross dressing. they never said it was bad, listen to the song and hear what they're saying 😂
I also forgot to add, To people living with living with living with NOT dying from disease (Angel, Collins, Mimi, and Roger)
No, she was born with an x and a y chromosome. This makes her male.
Why do you say she was born a woman?
There are women born with XXY chromosomes... Biological women.
@SqueezeE Cheese ??? this is a 9 year old comment honey. Angel is a drag queen, not trans.
@SqueezeE Cheese Are you illiterate? Read the dates, sugar.
@SqueezeE Cheese Sweetheart, don't wade into conversations that happened a decade ago. It's embarrassing.
@SqueezeE Cheese My way of thinking? That Angel isn't a woman? She's not. She identifies as a man literally in the script. Nothing in your comment is at all relevant to mine.
To be honest, I hate her clothing, too. Terrible colour choices.
is not the fact that he is gay, thats not the problem, is his way of dressing its just gross
is he...and still looks gross his fashion sense
Oh lol I was wondering what comment people were getting mad about and calling homophobic. You didn't like his outfit, that doesn't make you homophobic. If this movie was remade (and they did a good job) Angel's look would we vamped up and probably way cuter. Not everyone has the same style.
