The second season of NBC's Smash featured a fictional new Broadway musical called HIT LIST, written by characters played by Jeremy Jordan (Newsies, American Son, The CW's 'Supergirl') and Andy Mientus (Spring Awakening, Les Miserables, The CW's 'The Flash'), and starring Krysta Rodriguez (First Date, The Addams Family, Netflix's 'Daybreak'). Recording artist and viral RUclips star Carrie Manolakos (Wicked, 'The Greatest Showman') recorded the demo versions for many of the "Hit List" songs and plays the role originated on-screen by Katherine McPhee, who was unavailable for the concerts.
The fictional musical opened at Manhattan Theatre Workshop and then transferred to Broadway, opening at the Barrymore Theatre and winning seven Tony Awards. HIT LIST the musical received its actual world premiere performance at 54 Below on December 8 and 9, 2013.
HIT LIST, a modern fable about identity and the price of fame, tells the tragic love story of a wannabe pop singer who transforms herself to become a star and the hidden songwriter she uses to get there -- but at what cost?
A note from the Music Director: this video is a rough edit I did in December of 2013 to share the footage with my family. I generally prioritized the takes that were strongest musically and contained the correct lyrics. The footage is presented in its raw form, and without the attempt to mask transitions. I hope you can enjoy the energy of it still this way - it was a magical run for all of us, and I am glad to trust 2013-Ben to pick the takes he liked best, rather than diving back into the footage!
The HIT LIST BAND featured Benjamin Rauhala (Piano/Synth/Conductor), Charlie Rosen (Guitar), Shannon Ford (Drum Set), Alisa Horn (Cello), Dennis Michael Keefe (Bass), and Hiroko Taguchi (Violin).
Drew Gasparini, Joe Iconis, Andrew McMahon, and Justin Paul all made guest appearances at the piano.
Production Assistants: Dylan Bustamante, Emily Essig, Max Friedman, Blain Ingenthron, and Amanda Sales

Thanks
Doing the Lord’s work.
Let Me Be Your Star isn’t on the show?
@@sohoboriker it's from the same tv show SMASH but the show had two musicals within it. Hit list and bombshell. Let me be your star from bombshell
Can we all agree that Andy's narration is the best part as well as all of Jeremy
HOW DOES HE KEEP SINGING WHEN HE'S SO EMOTIONAL?! I'm over here sobbing, he's looking like he'll never be happy ever again, and his voice is clear as day. So talented...
The fact that Jeremy Jordan can shred your heart while still on-book says an entire set of encyclopedias about his talent, and about what this show could be fully staged, and with this cast (in a perfect world).
GOD I WISH THEY WOULD. COME. ON!
ALL THE “THANK YOU”s in all the languages in the world will never be enough to express how grateful we all are for this!!!!!!! ❤️😭❤️
Dziękujemy Ben! - that's in Polish :)
"Muitíssimo obrigado, Ben!" - that's how we'd say in Portuguese haha
Tack!
I swear, 27:15 has me DEAD XD.
Andy: slowly leans in "he kisses her"
then the nudge
THE NUDGE
Honestly Andy’s narration in general...☠️ but yes, that’s my favorite part
I can’t stop laughing and playing it over and over again. Thanks for the time stamp.😁
The laughter seems to get louder the more I replay this bit 😆
Jeremy singing “The love I meant to say” gets me every time (‘:
Caught in the storm that is jeremy jordan!
Jeremy Jordan's voice is just.....(insert fainting emoji)
I just rewatched all of Smash. Now seeing this makes me so happy! Now I just wish I could watch the Bombshell concert.
it's on youtube!
Here you go!

A fully fixed version was posted a few days ago by People for The Actor's Fund...
I'm rewatching again. Like 5th time since March hahaha. I love this show so much.
Me too!!
When Smash was on Hit List did not make any sense to me..Loved the songs though. NOW after watching this it finally makes sense. Thank you!
Shot out to Ben for come in clutch while we’re all in quarantine 😭😭😭😭😭
Actually... this comes in the worst moment possible, and maybe also the moment we need it the most. Thanks Ben, having the chance to experience this amazing story from start to end is the GREATEST gift you could have ever given to us. Once this global crisis is over... PLEASE, someone puts HIT LIST on Broadway!
I CAME AS SOON AS I HEARD
OMG, WE HAVE BEEN BLESSED, THANK YOU SO MUCH
All the way from London? D@mn! (Sorry, I had to.)
@@misspriss2482 I’m not here for youuu
I wish they recorded a soundtrack. I need to be able to listen to Jeremy singing "Caught In The Storm" on repeat 24/7
For now this will be my replay button 58:30
There is a soundtrack on spotify
@@lilyroachc7 but it's not available everywhere :c
@@franc5148 awww sad timesss
@@lilyroachc7 yeah hahhah. It's available in youtube in low quality but it's all good 😂
I wish they had an original full cast recording of the book. If that existed, i bet the fans could put together a cool animatic version.
When Jeremy sings The love I meant to say, it just shatters my heart. The 1st time it broke me was when he sang it on Smash in tribute to Andy’s character who had just died. His voice just rips my heart out when he sings those devastatingly sad songs.
😭😭 this was my favorite thing when I watched season 2 (especially in the height of my Jeremy Jordan obsession) and I STILL hold out for a full broadway production but I am so glad this exists. Thank you, Benji!!!
It's such a waste of potential to not actually put it on Broadway. It would win every Tony possible. I love this musical so much, "I heard your voice in a dream" is one of my favourite songs of all time. Thank you Ben for giving us a chance to see this amazing concert. Phenominal!
Jeremy Jordan singing Caught in a Storm...might have just made my 2020. And yes, it's 2021.
About halfway through, I got so distracted by JJ's eyebrows that I couldn't focus on anything else anymore. There's a whole other life happening in those, I swear.
Have you seen the guy named "Jeremy Jordan's eyebrows" and with a pic of them commenting on his Instagram? 😅
Wow back to back JJ content this is the best
I wish Kat was here😭 just because she originated the role on screen
I know
😭
Hit List would make an amazing musical, I hope that one day it might become a real thing!
OH MY GOD! 7 YEARS WAITING !!!!!!
fairy god fairy ur not just a gem ur a whole collection of diamonds!!
preach
Jeremy; Calling Out My Name; 1:05:20; Magic!
We STAN our Diva. Slaaay, K-Rod.
Krysta is the queen
So can this come to Broadway for real!!! Please!!!
Ok, that Pasek cameo...
Also 1:11:23,, is that Zachary Levi?!?! xd
Zai YEP!
He was doing First Date on Broadway with Krysta at the time 😢😢
@@hp4793 :'C
I just got emotional
Anyone know what time the Pasek cameo is? I was just listening and missed it!
@@dashanicolson5708 it's a like a minute before the og comments time stamp
I'm a nurse in the city, in the past month I've found myself often walking through an empty hell's kitchen, it's not on my commute...I just walk aimlessly from the hospital until I feel like I can start heading home... to brooklyn. Start the whole decontamination process & try to act human thing...
I walk past the places I used to go, in "normal" times, to commiserate on our seemingly, lousy days. I look at 54/below and just stop and stare.
It's 4am and like most nights I'm still up by myself, watching videos.
it's impossible to leave things at work, zoning out watching these videos are the best hours of my days, and who needs sleep.
I'm not sure what I'm trying to say... but thanks Ben.
Thank you for everything that you are doing :)
Beautifully written. Hope all is ok with you.
You posted this literally the same day I finished watching the entirety of Smash, so excellent timing! And learning that Joe Iconis wrote "Broadway, Here I Come" explains why it gets constantly stuck in my head.
This is a light in my corona darkness
Ugh Carrie Manolakos AND Eric Michael Krop?! Today is a blessed day.
I’ve only encountered “bootlegs” or clips of this performance, but nothing matches up to Ben Rauhala’s posts!!
Same same,been a long time coming
I would kill for a studio version of Haddonfield 15 Years Later
This is beautiful. I've never really gotten the full scope of the story before. Amazing performances, all around. Thanks, Ben!
That ending was the most epic thing! So much energy, so enthusiastic! Gush, I loved it. Thanks, Ben. They all looked so young! Jeremy's voice is unreal.
I love love LOVE 💙💜💙💜 the ending to "The Goodbye Song"! Just makes you want to go sing and dance in the streets!
wowza this is not very social distancing ----- OHHHHH 2013 DAT WAS SEVEN YEARS AGO OMG
Please DO NOT TAKE DOWN this video. It's a great concert that brings us back to the former SMASH days and hopefully, Broadway will bring it back to life as it's meant to be as soon as they can reopen
imagine being in jeremy's arms while he's singing, damn im lonely
right so i'm obsessed with this now. thank you so much for sharing! but also...that 2013 fashion? truly what were we all thinking.
Still slaps in 2023. Wish I had saw this live
The best thing to come out of this quarantine is all this amazing new (old) content. Thank you so much!
How have I only just discovered this???? Benjamin Rauhala, you are the best!
wait this musical makes more sense now -also tysm ben
I can't wait the day this comes to Broadway for real!
I've been looking for this for 7 years, bless you Ben
I had seen clips of this before but not the whole thing in it's entirety. Thank you! I LOVE Broadway Princess Party!! I am hoping that once the pandemic is over that 54 Below will be able to have more new performances. Loved hearing Jodi Benson singing "Soon"!
Yesss my favorite musical show! Such a good show with so many good songs!! I was so mad when they cancelled Smash
I'll be honest, this show always seemed hit or miss to me in Smash but this concert makes me see it for what it really is- really enjoyable if imperfect. I also adore some of the songs we never heard on the show. Haddonfield (15 years later) is freaking awesome.
I completely agree
Agree! Rewatching this season, after seeing it all put together, I have much more appreciation for the music
You know if Pasek and Paul are working on a project the music is going to be epic! I'm starting to really like Joe Iconis as well!
This is quite possibly one of the best things to come out of quarantine 😍💕
Album😀 Jeremy, Andy and Krysta!!!
Soooooo good!! Thanks so much for recording and posting this! What an amazing experience!
I didn’t cry with all the nostalgia all by myself in the living room, no I didn’t... 😂❤️
Andy magically gains gloves at 1:05:00 lmao
Love I meant to say just gets the tears flowing....no matter how often I play it.
Carrie Manolakos is a goddess and the world needs to recognize her as such ❤️
literally needs to be a show right now. Obsessed
I wish they would put out a soundtrack for Hit List like they did for Bombshell. Love the songs for this.
THANK YOU BEN
Was that Zachary Levi right before Haddonfield? That's hilarious because weren't they doing first date around this time?
Yes and yes :)
Three cheers for Benjamin, the godfairy! I was supposed to see my first show at 54 Below before the pandemic happened. Thank you!!
I searched everywhere for something from this concert after I heard about it, and was so disappointed when I couldn't find anything. It truly made may day to see this, thank you so much!
thank you Ben we have been blessed
Just watched both seasons in 2 days on nbc.com . . . going to make my husband rewatch it with me but I couldn't wait so I binged it. It is JUST AS AMAZING as I remember! THANK YOU FOR POSTING THIS!!!
That was epic! SO emotional! I'm crying.. Thank you so much!!!
BLESS YOU BEN!!! The true Fairy Godfairy for this quarantine and for all time!
Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
I knew that youtube premium subscription will be good for something!!!
Aaaah! Thank you, Ben! You truly are a fairygod fairy! ❤❤❤
Can’t believe I just saw this was uploaded. I’m rewatching Smash and never realized these were Iconis, Pasek and Paul songs! So excited to see the whole concert.
My prayers have been answered! THANK YOU BEN!!!
Thank you for making my life!!!!! First by doing this concert, and now by releasing it!!!!!! So happy I get to relive this now!!! It was truly one of my favorite nights of my life!!!!

You are too good to us Ben 😍 thank you!!!
OMG I WAS JUST LISTENING REWRITE THE STORY
THIS IS THE BEST DAY OF MY LIFE
I miss Smash so much!
Thanks for putting this up. I'd seen a recording before with just audio, and the sound much more muffled. This is a HUGE improvement.
I coould never express how grateful I am for you bringing this to us, Ben! It's FANTASTIC to see the show, now having context for the songs. IT ALL FITS SO BRILLIANTLY!
Thank you, Ben, a true quarantine HERO!

That was beautiful! Thank you again!

Años, queriendo presenciar esta obra, este lindo recuerdo, Smash fue la serie con la cual acepte mi amor por el teatro musical y esta puesta y bombshell son como una base en la que encontré un poco de la magia que hay detrás del telón. Gracias por dejarme ver un poco de lo que es una gran historia y un excelente repertorio musical
Thank you so much for this!!! xoxo from 🇧🇷
