I love how nobody notices the chords he's playing. That's so many complicated chords. Like Jesus, he's REALLY talented! And the went all up and down the guitar. He didn't stay on one fret for more than 20 seconds. What a great musician Darren is! 👏👏👏
I've been playing guitar for six years minus the time I wasn't playing, so I pretty much have the skill of say maybe three years, and I can definitely say Darren really wrote this song with pretty complicated chords, some quite exceptional writing skill was involved when Darren wrote the music. Not to mention his guitar skill doesn't stop there, as he casually stopped in the middle of the song to retune his guitar which took him only about a couple seconds. Exceptional accuracy.
His hand go up and down the guitar to like every fret like up he could have done this in a similar way but he always does it so difficult I am like how even 😤😤
But can you imagine people walking past them and wondering why there was a big group of people surrounding them as they sung a song about being in love with somebody called hermione granger
+Bad Wolf Corporation Yeah he and AJ Holmes wrote all the music for the first two Potter Musicals. He also wrote all the music for most of Starkid's early stuff like Me and My Dick and Starship.
Zoe Middleton that's literally the point of the musical tho. To take a twist on the original. So yes they would have tom Felton instead of the actor of viktor krum since that's how the musical is written
I love how when Darren messes up he just laughs and keeps playing his guitar. I noticed that Darren mouthed the words for Hermione's part in Back to Hogwarts. That was really funny!!!!
Is it weird that I keep watching Darren's "You expect me to sing about her"? His voice is seriously sexy there, and you can tell, if you listen closely, that his voice is different here. Like, it sounds...younger, even. I know, I know, he IS younger in this video, but it's still weird to me. In the good way ;) The point I'm getting at here is: Darren criss is supermegafoxyawesomehot and a bamf
I honestly always felt Joey has terrific tone color and vocal control even if he’s not known for having the same range as Darren. He has a very warm timbre and when he hits those notes that he obviously has to work hard on, he does it so well because he puts so much emotion and effort into it.
I effing love this version! Sure it was first sung by joey and lauren, but this version does everything to me. Darren is my fave now and forever ❤️❤️😍😍
Am I the only one who finds it adorable that every time Darren does something that isn't in the original song, Joey gives him this adorable look, like, 'what the hell are you doing, man?'
I’m gonna say this but every time I look back on these Starkid days when the Very Potter Musical series came out on RUclips, it makes me so proud at how far they’ve come as entertainers and storytellers.
The amount of note changes and the strumming pattern would be hard to do alone but the fact he’s singing during part of it is legendary Darren needs more credit than he get
I cannot possibly express how much I love them. Words do not suffice. This performance just made me so unbelievably happy lol. I was quite literally giggling nonstop throughout!!
There was one point where Joey smiled at the camera and my heart actually fluttered before I remembered that I wasn't actually there, haha. Definitely my favourite song from the musical, and this recording is just precious. -3
Can I just say how talented Darren is proved to be here? He's playing the guitar, singing a part that isn't even his own, while Joey is singing his part, with the pressure of everyone in the audience etc. This is why he's the most amazing person ever. Oh, and those pink sunnies, they're bamf, totally awesome and super-mega-foxy-awesome-hot. (;
This makes me incredibly happy. Mainly cause I was able to see them perform this at the Roxy last week. Darren and Joey are such good friends and you can tell that Glee hasn't changed anything. Darren is still the same ol' dork that everyone loves. Darren's voice also matured a lot since then. It's beautiful. :]
I think I need a new prescription for my contacts. For a moment, I thought Joey was eating RedVines. My world nearly imploded for real. I'll just go ahead and leave you to the comments that aren't just a pointless announcement of momentary confusion. Enjoy.
Omg! The only thing that can make Joey Richter more perfect is how he jams out every single time he sings this song! Even when he's off he rocks it! I also love the little tidbits he adds in during his last verse. Makes the song do much better in my opinion! And by better I mean more enjoyable to listen to!

Darren just casually re-tuning his guitar mid-song
@Marguerite Bourgeois same, after all *SATAN IS A REAL MAN*
still going on strong THE REAL MAN, SATAN
@Marguerite Bourgeois it already passed the magic number so i might as well provide my like
that perfect pitch goddamnit
Hi, it's just a funny trick, he did nothing to the guitar)
Ngl the fact Darren can hit Lauren's notes pretty well is seriously impressive omfg
I love how nobody notices the chords he's playing. That's so many complicated chords. Like Jesus, he's REALLY talented! And the went all up and down the guitar. He didn't stay on one fret for more than 20 seconds. What a great musician Darren is! 👏👏👏
Lol, true. I just started playing, so it's pretty difficult to me! haha! :'D
Ashleigh Stanley right??? I've been playing for about, 1 1/2-2 years and I struggle with it
I've been playing guitar for six years minus the time I wasn't playing, so I pretty much have the skill of say maybe three years, and I can definitely say Darren really wrote this song with pretty complicated chords, some quite exceptional writing skill was involved when Darren wrote the music.

Ashleigh Stanley that’s what I was thinking
That's a controversial snack Joey is eating
HE IS EATING TWIZZLERS WHEN HE SHOULD BE EATING RED VINES!!
+Estella Potter He actually doesn't like red vines, but I agree, TRAITOR 😂😂😂
In the Potter musicals, they put Twizzlers in the Red Vines bags Joey/Ron walked around snacking on because Joey doesn't eat Red Vines.
vanessa liu But this was uploaded befor A Very Potter Sequal was out so it wasnt even a joke at this point!
RED VINES
I can't get over how wide Darren's range is. Just... What?
+Lexi Pilot I know! When he did his high notes in this, I was like, WHAT IS THIS!?!
XX nerdygirl8064 XX
SAME
my true phamily is here
hEy bUDdY yOU iN lONdoN? Hi!!!!
Lexi Pilot hullo
Darren singing Lauren's parts always impressed me. And he's a seriously talented guitarist
But can you imagine people walking past them and wondering why there was a big group of people surrounding them as they sung a song about being in love with somebody called hermione granger
🙋😕
It was actually at a Harry Potter conventions, so it would but be as weird!
When Joey always does those little bits during the pause between "nothing less than" and "Beautiful to me" That right there is the key to my heart.
Same, same.
Darren's falsetto, though.
We thought Grant was fast, Darren's hands during this song is probably faster than the flash 😂
HOW IS HE PLAYING THAT COMPLICATED SHIT AND FREAKING SINGING AT THE SAME TIME AND SO HIGH TOO
And here I have trouble with both hands on the piano
I'm trying to learn Granger Danger on guitar and omg I don't give Darren enough credit!
I think he wrote the music for the musical
+Bad Wolf Corporation Yeah he and AJ Holmes wrote all the music for the first two Potter Musicals. He also wrote all the music for most of Starkid's early stuff like Me and My Dick and Starship.
And he also casually tunes the guitar mid song
K C and sings against Joeys melodie
I think that pause was just Darren contemplating if he should say Harry instead of Draco
I need Tom Felton and Rupert Grint to sing this to Emma Watson
Pidge _Katie123 SKKSKS YES
But Draco Malfoy never liked Hermione, it would have to be like Ron Weasley and Victor Krum or something lol
Zoe Middleton that's literally the point of the musical tho. To take a twist on the original. So yes they would have tom Felton instead of the actor of viktor krum since that's how the musical is written
TOM FELTON AHHHH
J.K actually confirmed that Draco was mean to Hermione bc he had a crush on her
Joey has improved so much as performer, I am so proud of how far they have all come since then
I love how Daren hesitates when he says Draco wake up and he get confused with the lyrics
I love how when Darren messes up he just laughs and keeps playing his guitar.
I noticed that Darren mouthed the words for Hermione's part in Back to Hogwarts. That was really funny!!!!
I like how well Darren is surviving despite the song is written for lauren and may be slightly to high for him
1:33 ^_^ :') Joey's like, "Woah dude... stop singing so well" and Darren goes ahead and forgets the line XD
"She'd laugh. Poor Weasley!" That's so damn cute how he does that in this video xD
Joey will never know how much I appreciate his sweatband here :')
I just realized Joey is eating Twizzlers...he's cheating on his Red Vines!
Lol yeah he actually hates them and during AVPS they actually gave him twizzlers in the red vine packages because he doesn't eat red vines
Is it weird that I keep watching Darren's "You expect me to sing about her"? His voice is seriously sexy there, and you can tell, if you listen closely, that his voice is different here. Like, it sounds...younger, even. I know, I know, he IS younger in this video, but it's still weird to me. In the good way ;)
The point I'm getting at here is:
Darren criss is supermegafoxyawesomehot and a bamf
IKR this part melt my heart (?
IDIDIDID
It’s crazy how much Joey’s and Darren’s singing has improved! So proud :’)
I'm in love with Darren's voice
Cami Perez aren't we all 😁
I love Darren's fail attempt to imitate Lauren's voice in the beginning.
I honestly always felt Joey has terrific tone color and vocal control even if he’s not known for having the same range as Darren. He has a very warm timbre and when he hits those notes that he obviously has to work hard on, he does it so well because he puts so much emotion and effort into it.
When Darren forgets his own lyrics XD
This boy doesn’t stay on a fret for long does he, omg this is a lot of talent right here!!!
"Sheee is the hottest girl I've ever seen."
Oh staaahp Darren you'll make me blush.
I love how Darren sings Lauren's lines :D so cute
its 2018 tomorrow and im crying to this
same holy shit
I’m still going don’t worry
that my friend is the starkid mood
Hi it’s 2024 and I’m losing it too
I effing love this version! Sure it was first sung by joey and lauren, but this version does everything to me. Darren is my fave now and forever ❤️❤️😍😍
Am I the only one who finds it adorable that every time Darren does something that isn't in the original song, Joey gives him this adorable look, like, 'what the hell are you doing, man?'
I love how on the last strum of his guitar, Darren sticks his tongue out a little. How cute is he?
JOEY JUST GOING “WOOO” IN THE MIDDLE I-
Joey Richter = LOVE
Joey is so amazing. He seems like such a nice person, and he's also so talented!
He is always smiling!
Joey seems like the kind of guy that would be awesome to eat pizza and hang out with
I LOVE the way he says
"she'd Laugh poor weasley"
but darrens guitar is out of tune and joey hes reacting according to it and gosh he so cute
Joey's face at 2:39 gave me life
Ronald Weasley!!! Those are NOT red vines!!!
The first "Hermione Granger"
when he goes "she'd laugh poor weasley" i half-died-half-cracked up. LOVE YOU JOEY
When they mess up it's adorable lol. I love this they are having so much fun.
RON HAS A BAG OF TWIZLERS THE BETRAYAL
I’m gonna say this but every time I look back on these Starkid days when the Very Potter Musical series came out on RUclips, it makes me so proud at how far they’ve come as entertainers and storytellers.
I will always love Darren
Joey and Darren's voices sound so good together. I wish they had more duets :3
Yooo I used to be obsessed with this video in like 2010. It's still so beautiful :)
Thanks to Leakycon 2015 I keep singing "disfigured" instead of "transfigured" helllpppp
Is anyone else like really hypnotized by Darren's hand movements? He really ROCKS that guitar!!!
Ooo joey sounded so nice here! Also darren is a guitar god
ps: i love how darren is like 3 eights up his natural tone just to be lauren XD
The amount of note changes and the strumming pattern would be hard to do alone but the fact he’s singing during part of it is legendary
Darren needs more credit than he get
Am I the only one who is amazed by how fast Daren's
He's a great musician
Oh! And Joey's "She'd laugh poor, Weasley!"
Just saying, this is the song i play on acoustic when I wanna show off. Thank you Darren 😁
And let's be clear, I'm trash so my fingers are practically bleeding after but it's worth
Darren really rocks on the guitar! I wish i could see him playing violin, though, heard he is been playing for years!
He's just amazing, all of them are
I almost pee myself every time I hear how high Darren can sing.
Joey is my favorite person.
It amazes me how much Joey has improved in 3 years. His voice is SO much better now.
This song never gets old!! Love it so much.. Starkid forever
is he eating twislers? Um wrong branding 😂😂
Darren: "Granger Danger"
Audience: "Ahh..yes!"
Joey: "Shit"
I less than three Joey!
I cannot possibly express how much I love them. Words do not suffice. This performance just made me so unbelievably happy lol. I was quite literally giggling nonstop throughout!!
There was one point where Joey smiled at the camera and my heart actually fluttered before I remembered that I wasn't actually there, haha. Definitely my favourite song from the musical, and this recording is just precious. -3
Lol Joey eating twizzlers... red vines are pretty gross though.
I was expecting red vines to be amazing when I first bought them and then almost threw up
Juliet Winchester joey hates them and he only ate them in AVPS because red vines sponsored them :)
Juliet Winchester Twizzlers are way better than Red Vines.... Although RedVines are better due to Starkid.
+maddie fun fact: he didn't, he replaced them with twizzlers, just kept the packaging.
TurtleHeart wow! How do you know?
OMG! Darrens voice can go extremely high xD He's way talented... So is Joey btw :D STARKID ROCKS!!
If I had to pick one song to show someone how amazing Darren's voice is, it would probably be this. DAMN!
Darren's so chill, tuning on the fly in the middle of a song. Epic badass.
I'm so obsessed
2:27 😍
For all the faults, and all the mess-ups, this is definitely still my favourite version of this song out there. ♥♥♥
The harmonies in this song are amazing
Darren is always going to forget the lyrics
Haha, I love how they totally failed at the harmonies.. haha : ) well done, boys. They're great though.
Can I just say how talented Darren is proved to be here? He's playing the guitar, singing a part that isn't even his own, while Joey is singing his part, with the pressure of everyone in the audience etc. This is why he's the most amazing person ever. Oh, and those pink sunnies, they're bamf, totally awesome and super-mega-foxy-awesome-hot. (;
This makes me incredibly happy. Mainly cause I was able to see them perform this at the Roxy last week. Darren and Joey are such good friends and you can tell that Glee hasn't changed anything. Darren is still the same ol' dork that everyone loves.
Darren's voice also matured a lot since then. It's beautiful. :]
Ron, put the twizzlers DOWN!!!
I think I need a new prescription for my contacts. For a moment, I thought Joey was eating RedVines. My world nearly imploded for real.
I'll just go ahead and leave you to the comments that aren't just a pointless announcement of momentary confusion. Enjoy.
This is so adorable!!! I wish I discovered Darren earlier. Along with AVPM and AVPS!!!
Love this!!!!
My two favorite male musicians!!!! I love them!
Joey you traitor!!! TWIZZLERS!!!! I mean seriously lol
I AM SOOOO DOING AN ACAPELLA COVER OH MY GOD
Omg! The only thing that can make Joey Richter more perfect is how he jams out every single time he sings this song! Even when he's off he rocks it! I also love the little tidbits he adds in during his last verse. Makes the song do much better in my opinion! And by better I mean more enjoyable to listen to!
I love the mess up on the first "Danger". It's the imperfections that make them perfect.
i was 7 years old. crap
RED VINEEES
Between joey's pitch problems, and Darren forgetting the lyrics, and the red vines, this is the cutest thing ever. :DD
I love that how they get quieter towards the end. It's sweet.
Oh my gosh I love Joey!!!!!!!! Marry me please :)
Aged well, aged well
Watch Darren's hand
You can't have Darren singing a song live without him messing up. That's his signature move(:
Joey's voice at 2:26 makes me smile. Am I the only one who replays those 3 seconds over and over again?
"SHE'D LAUGH, POOR WEASLEY"-3
darren is cute as hell here... i mean.... get out
Team StarKid for life!!
I just get this huge smile on my face because they're all just the most talented, adorable little nerds ever!
I always have this song stuck in my head!!!! It's the best!
I could be falling in love with Darren's voice
