I am so very sorry to hear about your loss. My wife and I consider this "our song" and it was the first song we danced to at our reception. We met a bit later than most do (she was 33 and I was 42) and both of us kind of thought we'd spend the rest of our lives alone until we found each other. This song really spoke to both of us as I imagine it did to you and your husband.
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for this. This song single-handedly exemplifies why Dear Evan Hansen is one of my favorite musicals-I just relate to it so much. If I ever get married, this song will somehow make it into my wedding-my vows, the wedding playlist, something-because Evan’s verse will always tap into the deepest part of me. The well of emotion you don’t even know is there. Being there to listen to this live must have been AMAZING, and I am so thankful that I could live vicariously through you and have another version of one of my favorite songs to listen to.
This was so charming....you can see her slip into character. And their voices lock in - something about doing the same show on stage for hundreds of shows gets people closer to people. Great stuff.
This is just wow.... I was so exited for the movie version of dear evan hansen in 2021. Only thing was Ben platt you could tell did not look 17 anymore. But now with the wicked movie just around the corner with Ariana Grande and Cynthia Derivo, this is theater kid musical history
Thank you for capturing this! I was lucky enough to go see DEH in January 2017 right after they moved to Broadway. I saw them perform this live and cried so hard then and seeing them reunite to sing this now made me sob again. I've heard many versions of this song and while I love them all, Ben and Laura's voices just mix so well and it's magical. Nothing compares to the original singers for me.
I can literally measure my life as to how it was before vs after seeing DEH in Dec 2017. I think Ben had just departed but got to see Laura perform. This is such a treat
Ahhh I was there I don’t really remember from the end of this song until around when Rachel Zegler came because I was processing this and in a whole different dimension. It was actually so cool

Did the audience know she was going to make an appearance? I was lucky to see the original cast. Don’t get me wrong the other casts are great but the original cast members were the best,
Is it only me or does Ben just use way to much vibrato? I love his voice but this has been a constant complaint with others as well. Maybe he just can't find the right note?
@@michaeljames1134 he’s always on the note, I guess he just likes vibrato? Interestingly he tones that down when he’s in a Broadway show playing a role. Evan Hansen and Leo Frank don’t use anywhere near as much vibrato as Ben Platt 😂 I wonder if it’s a product of going to a performing arts school as a kid - maybe having a strong vibrato was like, street cred 😆
Do the people in that audience know what they are receiving here? This is theatrical history being reincarnated.
Hohkay this isn’t Patti Lupone reviving her role in Evita, let’s move it along lmfao. Theatrical history…
@@FlyBoyMT who hurt you...
10000% agreed
I was there and yes, it felt like watching history unfold with both guests that night.
This was my wedding song. I lost my husband 3 years later. I can't get through the song without bawling.
@@cindyrice9971 oh my God, I’m so very sorry for your unthinkable loss.Thank you for sharing what this song means to you.
OMG that is so sad. I'm so sorry, and I don't even know you.

So sorry for your loss😢😢😢. If I ever get married ...i would LOVE this for my song as well
@mjsteele42 I feel like😢I might be alone but if not.... I'll want this song as well
EVAN & ZOE, FOR FOREVER
YES
I KNOWWWWWW
Ben & Laura? Yes.
Evan & Zoe? 🤢 the manipulation is- NOOOO
End of May or early June..
His was the greatest performance I ever saw on Broadway.
Wow. Laura’s voice has gotten even better. What a treat to see them singing together again. So good.
and you can tell that while theyre performing, the world does indeed fall away and it's only them
I've never clicked on a video so fast, this made me so happy 🩵
💙💙
Did the same thing

Aww this makes me so happy this is one of the four songs I decided to record - so glad it brings you joy!

What I would give to of been there! Amazing!
I saw Dear Evan Hansen with the original cast. Laura was my favorite! Thank you for sharing this. Brought back great memories of the show.
Listening to this because running away to NYC isn’t a plausible option right now 💙
SAME. (Also, it’s, like, my favorite musical theatre song, BUT SAME.)
Are u referencing the book What If It's Us??? 😍
@@STlover26 YES I love that book and DEH and Ben Platt
@@NoahsCakesandBakes That book is my FAVORITE BOOK EVERRR lol

Omg imagine Zoe and Evan got marries and this is them now! Their outfits look like their old characters but grown-up! 💙
Awww I’m going down that delulu road with you 🥰🥹

At the end of the second bar, they inhale and exhale together...obviously something they did in performance, for years. Amazing to see.
timestamp?
Already teared up before they even started singing 🥹
Wow!!! I’m so happy to see this!!! I couldn’t sleep so I came across this at 2am.
OH MY GOD I HAVE TO SEE THIS SHOW
I was there, and I'm just now taking it all in - IT WAS AMAZING
I’m assuming this was a huge surprise?
Awww, so special
The studio music video of them singing this song was my very first introduction to this show… this is so so so special💙thanks for posting this
Oh my god I’ve been looking for this all day on twitter, to no avail. Thanks for posting it!

I can literally measure my life as to how it was before vs after seeing DEH in Dec 2017. I think Ben had just departed but got to see Laura perform. This is such a treat
pure MAGIC .... then and now!
Love the standing O!
Can’t thank y enough for recording this!!!

Ok finally some more Politician action!
Evan And Zoe Reunited!
Noah is the most gorgeous, sexy man alive! Ben a VERY close second!❤❤

i’m going to throw up, this is so cute wtff

I love Laura Dreyfuss.
That's it.
She sang it.. flat..?
Until the part when they sing together. Weird. Probably had a hard time hearing her own voice in the beginning
Sorry, her voice isn’t great. Nor his for that matter.
Is it only me or does Ben just use way to much vibrato? I love his voice but this has been a constant complaint with others as well. Maybe he just can't find the right note?
