It's not simple to say Most days I don't recognize me These shoes and this apron That place and its patrons Have taken more than I gave 'em It's not easy to know I'm not anything like I used to be Although it's true I was never attention sweet center I still remember that girl She's imperfect but she tries She is good but she lies She is hard on herself She is broken and won't ask for help She is messy but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up And baked in a beautiful pie She is gone but she used to be mine It's not what I asked for Sometimes life just slips in through a back door And carves out a person And makes you believe it's all true And now I've got you And you're not what I asked for If I'm honest I know I would give it all back For a chance to start over And rewrite an ending or two For the girl that I knew Who be reckless just enough Who can hurt but Who learns how to toughen up when she's bruised And gets used by a man who can't love And then she'll get stuck and be scared Of the life that's inside her Growing stronger each day 'Til it finally reminds her To fight just a little To bring back the fire in her eyes That's been gone but it used to be mine Used to be mine She is messy but she's kind She is lonely most of the time She is all of this mixed up and baked in a beautiful pie She is gone but she used to be mine
I watch 3:45-3:55 on repeat just to watch each and every person's reaction to Adrian's high note. This is the only way I know the song since this is how I was introduced to it!!
idk what the Waitress is all about, but seeing this and hearing Adrian sing, makes me want to watch it. He's amazing, his delivery for each lines was perfect and so full of emotions. I got goosebumps whenever he does his perfect falsetto. The cast for sure did enjoyed his performance and was awed by how great of a broadway singer he is. I hope he gets to continue doing broadway shows if thats even possible coz he really can sing and live. my goodness. I had to rewatch this over and over again, and never gets tired of this one. Love seeing the reactions of the cast. tbh i even replayed the parts where the cast gets emotional. just so i can see all of their reactions. This is just perfect. The emotions was all there, he made people believed that he's really hvrt, and struggling in life coz you can feel it in this cover.
I’ve watched the original video from the waitress channel many many times but this has only just popped up, I always wished you could see more of the actors reactions so this is amazing
Anyone know who the guy doing the hype up was? Love he not only amped the audience up but he was in freaking tears and I'm so curious who that guy is. I LOVE this song and Adrian's cover but for years have been wondering who that hype dude is!
While the official released video from Waitress' channel had better vocal capture, THIS is the one for me. You can see all the actors, band, audience...and just how captivatved by the emotional, soul and incredible talent this kid was showing. Definitely have not cried to this performance countless times, nope, there's onions in the room or something. * continues to cry *
There's a video with better sound quality out there, but this one captures EXACTLY what had happened in that room. INSANE performance being witnessed by people Adrian felt were his idols. And then he did THAT in front of THEM. You can pause this video at any moment just to see their reactions to his singing.
He is co-starring on a teen tv show now called Head of the Class. He's on imb as Adrian Matthew Escalona (Actor). You can see clips from the show. IMHO, he steals the show.
Some of the casts are wiping their tears especially the male actors, can't hold their eyes tearing down, what a beautiful song and singer's take by just a child, like he's pregnant, lol.
I just love watching the cast react while he sings. I pick a different cast member on each play through (I know I’m not the only one who’s seen it more than once, now!)… So great that there’s more than one angle.
Same! I especially love watching the reaction of the cast member in blue scrubs. I was crying along with him in the sections when he got emotional. LOL
@@jeffquinz2118 TY for your 'special person' perspective! After repeatedly watching Adrian (bless him & lot's of love) I focused on the left hand side and missed the scrubs guy, but what a guy! Intensively sensitive and humble. Bless them all, wish I could have been there.
How a child can emit that kind of raw emotion is mind boggling! He probably hasn’t experienced most of what the song demands but he does it anyway. I’m so happy for him that he’s going to Broadway camp. I’m sure we WILL see him on that stage again and probably on screen. And I love that high note he throws in at the end. I’m sure the idea is his vocal coach/mentor but he’s the one belting it out! Keep going Adrian, we’re rooting for you and your wonderful mom. PS His last name isn’t Mathews is Escalona. Adrian Mathew Escalona. 🇨🇦🇺🇸
Watching the piano player look over with that look on her face never gets old. She wants to look at her music but keeps looking at him. Can't blame her. He is a very rare talent
I cry every time I hear this kid’s version of this song. Everytime!!!!
I will never NOT cry to this. 😭Emotional wreck every. single. time.
Brings me to tears every time 😢
🥧
He is half pilipino, pilipino is a great singer ❤❤❤❤

You know it's good because that one guy on the right with the beard briefly raised his eyebrows.

Sobbing…..
I hope that talent is encouraged and loved

The unity hug gets me every time. The love and support and admiration he must have felt in that moment!
OUTSTANDING 😭😭😭❤❤❤
I could watch this all day 🥹🥲😭

Never fails to touch my heart💗
Where is he now?
He has been on a TV show. I watched a few and tho it's an ensemble cast he definitely is a stand out. He just sparkles and shines.
my gad ❤
i always listen to this rendition whenever i miss my old self, he used to be mine. i dont even know who i am now
❤
I know who you are; Your somebody that worthy of love and patience baby.
Some people can just have a different gear they can achieve

every time every time! i cry
This is what community and love look like. I wish that existed anywhere in evangelical and fundamentalist Christianity.
Who is the actor in the backwards trucker cap? His joy watching Adrien is beautiful.
Ben Thompson I believe is his name
Brings a tear to my eye everytime I hear him sing with so much ease and passion
The future of broadway for sure!
This little guy is amazing. I’ve seen this before and cried then too. Bev
Hes mo was a filipino
I almost cried
Been years since I've seen this video and still gives me chills and tears that boys voice is so amazing!
They’re giving him a group hug
Rip @3:43 to @3:51! Daaaammmmmmmmmmnnnnnnnnnn!!!! He held that crescendo for 8 seconds!!!!!!!
3:20
Oh look it’s my single favorite video on the internet again 😭❤️
Anybody knows the boy has a youtube channel or not.

i want more. and i play it every time
I love seeing the performance from this angle. I love seeing how in awe of him the little girl is at the end of the performance!
I seek out this video & like it wherever I can
I just love watching the cast react while he sings. I pick a different cast member on each play through (I know I’m not the only one who’s seen it more than once, now!)… So great that there’s more than one angle.
😭 Agreed. Love this entire experience. It's healing on a lot of days.
Same! I especially love watching the reaction of the cast member in blue scrubs. I was crying along with him in the sections when he got emotional. LOL
Please... two glasses of wine and I watch it six times to do EXACTLY THIS.
Same!

I’m not crying, you’re crying🥲 i love all their reaction to the amzing boy
Why i cried🥹🥹🥹
The one and only cover that made me cry....
I just saw that Adrian will be in the next Head Of The Class this fall!
It was actually last year, but got cancelled. Sorry to tell you. He did sing on the show though.

I never heard this song till I saw this video, I still come back to it and cry everytime 🤍

Incredibly beautiful and deeply moving. What a gift.
Who is the guy in the beginning making the introductions?
