I'm sure there are plenty of talented dudes out there who have portrayed Roger and been amazing but NO ONE will ever come close to Adam, his voice is just so damn powerful.
YES!! This!! I agree with you tenfold! He IS Roger!! To make matters interesting, if you ever watched the RENT behind the scenes footage on the DVD, they said Adam was not having much success trying to be a rock star so he auditioned for RENT and he got in. RENT was his lucky big break 🤩
I was incredibly lucky to be able to see Adam and Anthony when they both reprised their roles on Broadway. My best friend and I were sitting next to the theater's front doors eating lunch on the sidewalk as we waited for the place to open, when a car pulled out and Adam got out. He walked right past us, and he smiled as we sat there with our jaws hanging open. He pointed at us and said, "You two enjoy the show," and kept on walking. To this day it's still the sexiest thing that has ever happened to me.
I've watched this way too many times, mostly for that one note. Yes, that one. Thank you to the awesome human who recorded this! Knowing that this song has been with him for so long and how it still connects and comes straight from his heart, after all these years is incredible.
The original and still the best. Amazing, after all these years. He still sounds incredible. And looks incredible. I feel like his star should have been bigger on Broadway.
Adam is the only one who can sing this song! He has an awesome voice. I would never see Rent with anyone else but the original cast. I love the Rent movie because the movie brings the play to life. I must have seen it 100 times since it came out in 2005. ❤
If anyone's interested, he was also in Alleluia! The Devil's Carnival, the sequel to The Devil's Carnival. He's joined with Paul Sorvino, Emilie Autumn, Dayton Callie, Ted Neely (from Jesus Christ Superstar) and Barry Bostwick (from Rocky Horror Picture Show).
@@danceten7305 do you have a recording of the whole event? Adam Pascal in that outfit is something I need to see more of. It's just so just ridiculous looking
@@ghostking7853 I don’t since no recordings of the show were permitted. I just have this bonus performance. But the show itself was incredible. Definitely check it out when it tours again.
Did he do this after every show??? Oh man that's got to be tiring 😫, I would be sick of this song with the amount of times he's had to perform that song.
You mean as an acting performance? Clearly this is kind of just an impromptu casual kind of thing. (I mean it was probably planned but that's the feeling of it). Vocally he's as great here as he's always been.

Two things. Adam Pascal was put on Earth to play Roger. This was AMAZING. Number two, thanks for recording and posting!

Omg. Timeless. Nobody else can sing this song and resonate so intensely in your bones.
No
Body
Ever.
Can't believe that he's 49 years old. He still look like in his 20's
He doesn't age, it's a fact.
I Love rob mclures face in the background when he hits the high note

Anna, you summed it up so perfectly!

1:40 gives me chills oh my lord

He's truly owned this beautiful song.
Adam should have been a huge star on and off broadway. His voice is unique with great stage presence.
I want him to sing that again. In that outfit. In my shower.
Bogmire42 the biggest mood of 2018
One of the best voices ever...and truly hot. The whole enchilada.
God bless the person that recorded this.
I'm fairly certain I'd have reacted the same way Rob Mcclure did.🤣

Okay this is awesome, he has still got it
I love this man
I Was there! So AWESOME!!!!
Such a good recording!
So in love with him

1:40 the guy in the background is actually me-
The 1 person who disliked this.... is not a true fan.
Yes🙌🏻❤️
the only one who should be singing this sonh
He really gives me David Bowie vibes, amazing
what a codpiece
Cool that Theo got into theater when No Vacancy broke up
What is this from?
Song is from "Rent". Performance was as a fundraiser after he performed in the musical "Something Rotten". Thus the costume!

This is really very not that good.

I think this confirms that Jonathan Larson was just the Shakespeare of musical theatre
