I think what really makes Jordan’s voice unique for Evan is that he said he’s a baritone when Evan is usually played by a tenor. This gives the songs a different voice color and it’s amazing!
Noelle Barrow It’s probably because his tone colour (timbre) is darker than most of the Evans, also he might be a High Baritone just like Ramin Karimloo (who played the tenor role of Jean Valjean).
Locke350 considering the range he has I wouldn’t even think to place him as a high baritone either. He hits notes I can’t even think about and I’m a mezzo soprano haha
OMG so proud of him. His voice is perfect. So many people were doubting it. The oooonnnllly doubt that I had was actually due to his speaking voice. He has one of those just great speaking voices, so to pull off the awkward, hurried, speaking sometimes, Im like idk lol.
I completely agree! I love him so much but couldn't see him as Evan because I don't see Jordan as anxious or awkward at all. Just proves how great of an actor he is.
Off topic: If they did a live action "The princess and the frog" he would be the PERFECT Prince Naveen! He is charming, a great singer and dancer, and looks so much like him! edit: Thank you to all of y'all for the likes! Fingers crossed that Disney makes this happened!🤞🏼🐸
People think that it’s stunt casting, but he was so incredible! Like Sabrina coming in as Cady, I’m confident in her. (Just not what’s his face.. um Cameron Dallas...)
*• Purple Panda Playz •* i was at one of his shows. and he was so flat. they removed a dance scene he was in because he couldn’t do it.. and they removed a high note in someone gets hurt because he couldn’t hit it. (they made reneé (regina) riff over it)
It's a celebrity show stunt. They do it to pull in tickets. That being said, Jordan Fisher is God and I hate that I won't be able to see him in this because of quarantine.
@@queenoftrades7254 no, I mean that they do it as a ploy to bring ticket sales up. Chicago is a notorious show for this and is the reason it's the longest running revival to this day.
People need to understand there’s a difference between “stunt casting” and “casting an actor with a successful career in musical theatre who is also successful outside of Broadway”
I was skeptical, but he actually sounds wonderful. He sings with a warmer tone than other Evans I've seen, and that's a refreshing thing. I could not get enough of his breathy (and somewhat sexy) "On a perfect day."
He doesn’t give the right Evan Hanson vibes tho☹️ like no matter what i didn’t think he pulled off the mannerisms described in the book or the way Ben did it
@@kyleenevens5540 as someone who saw one of Jordan’s last performance before Broadway went dark- they 10000% embodied Evan. The tics, the nervousness, the slight stutter. All of it. Jordan was a flawless Evan, and frankly was an inspired choice
you know i originally wasn’t thrilled with him being casted in this but after seeing even just these clips, he seems to be doing amazing in this show. his voice is gorgeous and fits the contemporary sound of the show. he looks awkward and flustered running around in the second clip and just seems to fit. honestly my only complaint is that he doesn’t look like a high schooler but that’s my complain with media in general lol. but he’s doing great!
One Ravenclaw Witch it was absolutely incredible. it was the third time i saw it. i saw it with ben platt and steven anthony. jordan fisher was his own evan. he was perfect in every single way.
Hearing him sing these notes in For Forever and like it's not straining at all but like it kinda sounded hard made me re-realize/appreciate how UGH, GIFTED Ben Platt is haha
For those complaining he is a stunt cast. It's not stunt casting when they already have broadway credits. Jordan did Hamilton arguably the biggest show ever he is amazing and has such a good range in voice and acting I can't wait to see him do even more broadway
I have to be honest I absolutely love Ben and all the other Evans but he’s my favorite. He’s incredible and I think he has the best acting. Just an opinion though so please don’t get mad! 😊😊
I know nothing about this musical but from comments I see of “I can’t imagine Evan looking like this and being a nerd, when Jordan is a whole geek for things like video games and musicals just from what I’ve seen him in and mention from time to time.
Okay I love Jordan, so don’t get me wrong but I just don’t think he’s fit for Evan. He gives off this really confident vibe (at least for me) rather than Evans awkward one. He has an amazing voice, but he just holds himself in such a strong proud way. This is not meant to offend anyone, just my opinion. I do love Jordan and his voice though!
Jordan is so good . I understand ben wanting to do the film . the role was built around him and he is terrific in it . I think at the point when film happened it just didn't work . Evan needs to look like high school kid , Jordin I believe would have been a perfect fit . They are both incredibly talented . ben is amazing in parade !!!
really really good! i was a little upset because I thought they cast him as part of a thing to bring in celebs in order to bring up ticket sales ( like some of the other shows like waitress) and I was afraid the quality of the show would go down, but jordan is not just a celebrity and he’s really spectacular in this role.
I'm honestly not into it. He's SUPER talented, but he's just not right for this role. He just looks like he's a confident dude singing some songs. He sings them well, but not really in character
it makes me so mad how I cant describe how much I love him into words and explain my entire knowledge on him. he’s involved in 23 things that I’ve seen, including being a singer, producer and streamer. im obsessed with him. he’s my favorite evan, I think jordan just portrayed him better than the others did. I wish he was the one in the movie. his crying and emotions and voice, how he acts, everything’s perfrct and so believable, and when he looks like jordan fisher, you cant not cry when he’s crying or feel bad when he gets shoved or yelled at 😭 I legit balled my eyes out multiple times during his preformance. I LOVE HIM. the way he sings is so addicting to hear, he has so much range and such a conforming, warm voice if that makes sense. I literally just love him too much.
So. Proud of Jordan. I don't know hims super well, but have met him a couple times, and 2 of my best friends did theatre with him in high school. He's doing great work and we're proud of him back here in Bham!
Disclaimer: badass voice! Love it.... but. Lol. Does anyone know? If in this version they addressed why the parents and family are like extremely white and he's black. Did something happen with the mailman? LOL Is he adopted?? I've been waiting to watch it so yes I have not seen it just jammed the OST.
I finally got to see DEH live, on Wednesday (tour) and it was amazing. I loved every second of it, even tho I was sitting at the back of the back. And seeing this makes me want to see it again before they leave(Sunday is their last day) but I really cant afford it, so it makes me sad
I think what really makes Jordan’s voice unique for Evan is that he said he’s a baritone when Evan is usually played by a tenor. This gives the songs a different voice color and it’s amazing!
Jupiter Galaxy I don’t know why he claims he’s a baritone when he’s a tenor with a capital T LMAO

I didn't even know what this means, but I agree
Jupiter Galaxy Ben Platt is a Bass/Tenor, he has a very flexible range.
How am I supposed to believe he’s a nerd when he looks like Jordan Fisher
I was gonna say loser, but nerd works too
Yeah. Someone that hot wouldn't have to approach girls; they'd be all over him.
This is so true no one would've dared labelled Evan a nerd with THAT FACE
@@kyliekatcarter3714 lol
Fact
OMG so proud of him. His voice is perfect. So many people were doubting it. The oooonnnllly doubt that I had was actually due to his speaking voice. He has one of those just great speaking voices, so to pull off the awkward, hurried, speaking sometimes, Im like idk lol.

its called acting
Agreed 100%. I was curious if he’d be able to pull off the speaking successfully, but it looks AMAZING
Caleb Warner that’s the point. He’s a phenomenal actor.
he had to be a bit quirky in RENT live so I knew he could pull it
Off topic: If they did a live action "The princess and the frog" he would be the PERFECT Prince Naveen! He is charming, a great singer and dancer, and looks so much like him!

TRUE omg how have I never thought of that???? He would be PERFECT.
@@sarahturner4148 right? Now that is a remake I would pay to see!
Aubrey Hammond OHMYGOODNESSOHMYGOODNESS YESSSSSSSS AHHH HOLY COW
YES
YES
People think that it’s stunt casting, but he was so incredible! Like Sabrina coming in as Cady, I’m confident in her. (Just not what’s his face.. um Cameron Dallas...)
he has been in other musicals and is actually talented
What's wrong with Cameron Dallas
Stunt Casting is what Chicago does, not DEH 😂😂😂😂😂
Camara Rhodes they said he was hilariously funny in a review, and couldn’t hit his notes
*• Purple Panda Playz •* i was at one of his shows. and he was so flat. they removed a dance scene he was in because he couldn’t do it.. and they removed a high note in someone gets hurt because he couldn’t hit it. (they made reneé (regina) riff over it)
Oh my god WHAT A TREAT! He sounds incredible. If only they did this for every replacement in shows.
It's a celebrity show stunt. They do it to pull in tickets. That being said, Jordan Fisher is God and I hate that I won't be able to see him in this because of quarantine.
*cough* Mean Girls on bway needs to learn this *cough* *cough*
@@kaishenanigans833 Sabrina seems great 😂
Wym? U mean they should recast broadway characters as celebs?
@@queenoftrades7254 no, I mean that they do it as a ploy to bring ticket sales up. Chicago is a notorious show for this and is the reason it's the longest running revival to this day.
dat falsetto though. nice to hear this music sung with the extra warmth in this voice. looks darling, of course. wish i could see the show.

LEGIT HE SANG IT PERFECT I COULDN’T AGREE MORE
He’s such a cute Evan
Best Evan since Ben. His voice is amazing but how he plays the nerdy awkward looks so great! Ben, Jordan, and Andrew are my favorite Evans
He doesn’t give the right Evan Hanson vibes tho☹️ like no matter what i didn’t think he pulled off the mannerisms described in the book or the way Ben did it

the guy who plays jared sucks he ruined the show for me
Oh my gosh!!!! This took my breath away!!!!! I love Jordan's voice so much!!!! I hope he stays with the show for a while!!! Go Jordan go!!!!
I SAW JORDAN. I CLICKED
He’s doing a fine job!!
i’m going tonight !!! AHHhH
OMG Lucky!

olivia stettler I’m going Tuesday night!! So hyped :)
olivia stettler How was it? I’m going in April, west end.
One Ravenclaw Witch it was absolutely incredible. it was the third time i saw it. i saw it with ben platt and steven anthony. jordan fisher was his own evan. he was perfect in every single way.
Jordan Fisher is just something else like wow wow wow wow
HES LITERALLY AMAZING
Saw the show the other night and he was awesome.
Hearing him sing these notes in For Forever and like it's not straining at all but like it kinda sounded hard made me re-realize/appreciate how UGH, GIFTED Ben Platt is haha
I need a new cast recording with Jordan!!
That's what bootlegs are for
Jordan is amazing!!
I went to watch it yesterday AMAZING show!
For those complaining he is a stunt cast. It's not stunt casting when they already have broadway credits. Jordan did Hamilton arguably the biggest show ever he is amazing and has such a good range in voice and acting I can't wait to see him do even more broadway
he’s so precious as evan 🥺🌳👕
It looks like he's doing amazing😄
Happy Valentine's Day!
What can't he do??? And he's such a cute Evan aww
I'm seeing him soon!!!
I lovr him so much!! Well-deserved ❤
I have to be honest I absolutely love Ben and all the other Evans but he’s my favorite. He’s incredible and I think he has the best acting. Just an opinion though so please don’t get mad! 😊😊
King omfg 🥺
I love him
Ok so I knew he was gonna be good but I didn’t know he was gonna be this good!
This is amazing.
I know nothing about this musical but from comments I see of “I can’t imagine Evan looking like this and being a nerd, when Jordan is a whole geek for things like video games and musicals just from what I’ve seen him in and mention from time to time.

I agree! I love jordans voice but I just don’t think he portrays everything the role of evan hansen brings well enough
I'm shooketh he has an INCREDIBLE VOICE like INSTANT TEARS IN MY EYES WOW
this is beautiful. i think he is the best evan since ben platt
Awkward Abby I agree
Taylor trensch was my favorite :)
Jillian Arthur There have been three other principle Evans since Ben: Noah Galvin, Taylor Trensch, and Andrew Barth Feldman.
Andrew was amazing what do you mean
he's fascinating...
Jordan is so good . I understand ben wanting to do the film . the role was built around him and he is terrific in it . I think at the point when film happened it just didn't work . Evan needs to look like high school kid , Jordin I believe would have been a perfect fit . They are both incredibly talented . ben is amazing in parade !!!
Love JORDAN
Cant wait for Sincerely me 😂
really really good! i was a little upset because I thought they cast him as part of a thing to bring in celebs in order to bring up ticket sales ( like some of the other shows like waitress) and I was afraid the quality of the show would go down, but jordan is not just a celebrity and he’s really spectacular in this role.
oh my i cried when he sing the first word!!
Y'all saying Ben Platt is too old to play Evan when Jordan Fisher here is the the same age as Ben
Anyone else here because you were supposed to see this live, but then Broadway closed because of Corona?
YEEEES I'M SO HAPPY
Excuse me but this is not NEARLY enough footage of this perfect human being
I'm honestly not into it. He's SUPER talented, but he's just not right for this role. He just looks like he's a confident dude singing some songs. He sings them well, but not really in character
He sings well and fits almost perfectly into character. Don't judge from a single minute of performances ffs
Ben Platt and Taylor are the best
He looks so genuinely happy to be onstage!
Best Valentine's Day present!!! ❤️ You're doing amazing Jordan! #YouWillBeFound
he’s a great actor but he’s still so cool haha, it’s weird… like for Mark in Rent Live, he did great but he could never be nerdy enough haha
YES.
okay but in reality, if Evan looked like Jordan Fisher no hecking way would he be a nerdy kid
Being attractive doesn't really have anything to do with social anxiety and trauma but yeah i get your point
Who ever hit the 👎 Obviously was a mistake because they’re crying
He’s way too pretty for this role
it makes me so mad how I cant describe how much I love him into words and explain my entire knowledge on him. he’s involved in 23 things that I’ve seen, including being a singer, producer and streamer. im obsessed with him. he’s my favorite evan, I think jordan just portrayed him better than the others did. I wish he was the one in the movie. his crying and emotions and voice, how he acts, everything’s perfrct and so believable, and when he looks like jordan fisher, you cant not cry when he’s crying or feel bad when he gets shoved or yelled at 😭 I legit balled my eyes out multiple times during his preformance.

Wasn’t he Doody in Grease Live? He’s adorable! 😂 I might be wrong but idk 🤣
And Mark in the (failed, sort of) Rent Live!
IWillBeHers oh yeah!!! I’m so proud of him he’s come far
I'm not crying you are!!! I love Jordan so so so much and I can't wait to see him soon
So. Proud of Jordan. I don't know hims super well, but have met him a couple times, and 2 of my best friends did theatre with him in high school. He's doing great work and we're proud of him back here in Bham!
I miss Andrew 😭😭😭
He is kinda giving Ben Platt justice right now
hes got talent but i don’t buy evan’s anxious and timid nature, which i think is essential for a character like evan
💙SLAY JORDAN💙
*WHY CAN'T THEY JUST RELEASE A FULL COPY ALREADY???* I'd gladly pay for any amount
omg the hand motions, the eyebrows, his mannerisms are so beautifully inspired by Ben Platt
Agh he is a perfect Evan!
I saw Dear Evan Hansen once. Powerful show I'll admit, but great
Great job Jordan on landing the title role
Jordan is such a great Evan just based on these little snipits.
Sorry, he's no Ben Platt.
jordan fisher could literally fucking STOMP MY SKULL and i would cry from happiness
I'm torn between the voice talents of Jordan as Evan, and the acting performance of Ben as the movie Evan.... Ugh....
*furiously goes to buy tickets to see him, only to remember you don’t live in NY and can’t afford it*
I like how Evan Hansen is like Doctor Who. You can repeatedly change the actor but the... essence of the character remains
Saw the show last night. He was amazing, the cast were. Loved the play and the music.
Uploaded 4 seconds ago. Wow
WHY DOES HIM SINGING HURT MY SOUL?!LIKE IT MAKES ME EMOTIONAL
no
I WANNA WATCH ON BROADWAY SO MUCH BUT I LIVE IN ASIA OMGGGG I DONT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO GO PLSS
i'm gonna need a full album with this cast
He is so cool against him playing Evan no doubt great singer actor and dancer
I need the full version of this recorded live!
0:41 "Grandma!"
SOMEONE GIVE THIS MAN A TONY
Disclaimer: badass voice! Love it.... but. Lol. Does anyone know? If in this version they addressed why the parents and family are like extremely white and he's black. Did something happen with the mailman? LOL
Is he adopted?? I've been waiting to watch it so yes I have not seen it just jammed the OST.
Very good but no comparison to the original Ben Platt
bro i know jordan fisher from twitch, this is hella weird
Don't get me wrong Jordan is great, I just personally get the Evan vibe from him.
Omg Jordan as Evan is my FAVORITE! But Stephen Anthony from the tour will always be my first Evan 😊
I finally got to see DEH live, on Wednesday (tour) and it was amazing. I loved every second of it, even tho I was sitting at the back of the back. And seeing this makes me want to see it again before they leave(Sunday is their last day) but I really cant afford it, so it makes me sad
too beautiful to do Evan
wait all of them were cute
I'm so happy I got to experience him as Evan Hansen before Broadway paused their performances.
YESSSSSSS JORDANNNN
I was really nervous her wasn’t gonna give Evan Hansen justice but I’m really proud.
I would totally go see Jordan Fisher in NYC! I’ve seen Ben Platt and Ben Levi Ross and id love to see his version of Evan
I NEED TO SEE THE FULL SHOW, SOMEONE PLEASE 🥲Is there anywhere you can watch it?
Saw him Wednesday night, he was absolutely amazing
