+Erin Elizabeth True Story, every time, EVERY TIME, someone says "You Look Familiar" I automatically instinctively respond with "Like Your Dead Girlfriend". It's gotten me in trouble a few times.

Why do musicals always have weird forms of flirting? Brain freezes, candle lighting, talking about all the nice things someone's dead brother said about them when really it wasn't their brother it was the person saying the things. Like, what the heck?
too bad broadway's expensive. at least this is a cheaper way to see it...and with better quality and without people screeching in your ears like dying animals.....
She was shrugging it off by saying "bah humbug" because it's near Christmas and she didn't believe him, plus "bah humbug" was the phrase used as a kind of begrudging comment in Charles Dicken's 'A Christmas Carol'.

[Mimi] You're staring again [Roger] Oh no, I mean you do, have a nice--- I mean - you look familiar [Mimi] Like your dead girlfriend [Roger] Only when you smile But I'm sure I've seen you somewhere else [Mimi] Do you go to the Cat Scratch Club? That's where I work, I dance Help me look! [Roger] Yes! They used to tie you up [Mimi] It's a living [Roger] I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs [Mimi] We could light the candle Oh, won't you light the candle? [Roger] Why don't you forget that stuff? You look like you're sixteen [Mimi] I'm nineteen, but I'm old for my age I'm just born to be bad [Roger] I once was born to be bad I used to shiver like that [Mimi] I have no heat, I told you [Roger] I used to sweat [Mimi] I got a cold [Roger] Uh huh, I used to be a junkie [Mimi] But now and then I like to... [Roger] Uh huh [Mimi] Feel good [Roger] Oh, here it... [Mimi] What's that? [Roger] It's a candy bar wrapper [Mimi] We could light the candle Oh, what'd you do with my candle? [Roger] That was my last match [Mimi] Our eyes'll adjust Thank God for the moon [Roger] Maybe it's not the moon at all I hear Spike Lee's shooting down the street [Mimi] Bah humbug, bah humbug [Roger] Cold hands... [Mimi] Yours too Big, like my father's Do you wanna dance? [Roger] With you? [Mimi] No, with my father [Roger] I'm Roger [Mimi] They call me, they call me... Mimi
I remember when I first watched this scene I was like soooo... you just not going to give your name ? 😂😂😂 then when I saw her name was mimi on the window I was like ooohhhhh
I never understood why Rodger wasn't that upset when she initially said that she dropped her stash and then all of a sudden is like "oh drugs are bad!" But then is like "oh I found it I MEAN CANDY BAR WRAPPER" his logic is confusing
he didn't know her before, he didn't care for her as much. i guess in that neighborhood people just used it. he fall in love with her later, and then the idea of her using it was abhorrent and unacceptable. not confusing at all.
![Grease - You're The One That I Want [HQ+Lyrics]](/img/1.gif)
"You look familiar"
"Like your dead girlfriend"
Best lines in this movie.
I love how Mimi can be brutally outspoken, yet so at ease and funny xD

"Fingers! Figured."
Okay am I the ONLY ONE that has a crush on Roger? That smile, and the bad boy looks even when he's like a puppy, come on
I did! Haha I always say at the start "hottie" when the camera rolls past Roger during seasons of love!
Yess I watched this movie tons when I was younger and he was like my #1 man
ME
Florr Fleitas same
Florr Fleitas ditto and that voice omg!
"I know I've seen you out and about when I used to go out"
I can relate Roger
"You look familiar"
"Like your dead girlfriend" ouch
"You look familiar.."
"Like your dead girlfriend?"
OMG Mimi..
"Why dont you forget that stuff you look like your 16"
"IM 19!!"

Aubrienda Kerkula ...well now & then i like to feel good
Hey here it-
What's that?
Candy bar rapper
We could light the candle
+Aubrienda Kerkula o what you do with my candle...eeehellll...
Rosario Dawson isn't the technically best singing Mimi ever, but the way she delivers her lines in this scene is perfect. She conveys a lot.
bigdaddywbl I LOVE her voice.
@@ExitStatement indeed
I love the way he says "Handcuffs" idk why
Me too😂
I got a reading light for my e-reader. When it arrived in the mail, I sang "Would you light my Kindle?".
+Eric Swearingen Man, that joke was FAR below 14th street.
lol
the single best thing i have ever read god bless you
Eric Swearingen bless your soul you're so clever
Sutherland Isabelle I do my best.
"i like it between my~~"
"-fInGeRs, iT fIgUrEd... oH wEll, gOoDnIgHt!"
Can't believe it's been almost 10 years since this came out and I'm still obsessed with this song!
Yup. Caught myself singing Out Tonight at work today. :D
Probably my favourite song from Rent
They make such an adorable couple. (When they get together) but even now. So cute
A candy bar wrapper? In that house? Considering you had to burn posters for heat? Nice excuse Roger. Very well thought out.
31 'likes' on my Rent comment? This is the life people
183
191
It's funny
They call ME
They call ME
ME, ME... :D
Mimi*
whateva
GlassPickles didn't get the joke. lawl.
I saw this version first and I loved it, but after I saw Renee do it I absolutely fell in love with her, and no one can match her
Aw I always forgot that he hid it from her and lied about it being a candy bar wrapper
Neon Roses what do you mean "candy bar wrapper"
Miles Skunk He finds the drugs that she dropped. When he says "Oh look" he picks it up and puts it in his pocket. She says "what's that?" and he tell her it was just a candy bar wrapper.
Miles Skunk like it was just trash that he found and not her drugs.
They Literally had and entire convo as a song !!!!! LOVE RENT ❤ 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Yup! Whether presented this way or not, Rent's a rock opera.
such a great scene in such a great film :)
Love the "what's thaaat?" when Roger picks up the "candy bar wrapper.
"Why don't you forget that stuff? You look like you're 16!"
"I'M 11 SO STFU"
I haven't seen this movie in forever! I love this song her voice is so captivating 😍
"i didnt recognize you without the handcuffs" i loled
This is cute - happy scene from the movie. "We could light the candle...!"
Renaissance Jack she's suggesting they shoot up together. After he said his girlfriend died. How is that romantic?
I really love her voice, and both of their voices work together so well :) they're my two favorite characters.
would you find my heroinnnnnnn
How else are you supposed to meet guys pre-tinder?😹
"they used to the you up"
" It's a living"
"I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs" 🤦💜🤧
2:45
My favourite, out of all the others songs!!
I like take me or leave
Why do musicals always have weird forms of flirting? Brain freezes, candle lighting, talking about all the nice things someone's dead brother said about them when really it wasn't their brother it was the person saying the things. Like, what the heck?
The candle is a metaphor for passion, love, and sex
heathers, rent, dear evan hansen HAHA IM GLAD TO KNOW ALL OF THESE
LOVE this movie!! THANX SOOOO MUCH for sharing this!!!!
Mimi: "Do you wanna dance?"
Rodger: "With you?"
Mimi: "No with my father"
Rodger: "I'm rodger"
The Roger and Mimi storyline is my favourite! Their duets are the best.. Well not really - but... you know what I mean 😅
I'm a gay Rent fan, and though I love the relationship between Collins and Angel, Roger is my favorite character.
Collins and Angel actually had a functional relationship.
The older I get, I am surprised how much more I understand about this song
I guess she also needs the candle to cook up
Alexia M. That's exactly what this scene was about. She's a heroin addict that he falls in love with
"oh won't you light my candle" is my favorite line
does anybody have a sibling that watch this and knows all the word smh my sister does and now I'm addicted
You talking bout me lol
Me lol
😂😂😂
Shanae Johns This is a very specific situation that I just happen to fit into
Missdiva38 Boss I do since 07 when I saw the movie for a class project and I got addicted to it! I know the words to every song!!!
She needs to invest in a lighter
I remember watching this back in high school music class love this so many memories
I love this scene, but the broadway version of Rent is much better, in my opinion. =)
too bad broadway's expensive. at least this is a cheaper way to see it...and with better quality and without people screeching in your ears like dying animals.....
iggyfan11
the only thing I didn't like about the movie is that they cut the song goodbye love and halloween
blobblobandblob122 that is sad but they at least filmed them and put it in a deleted scenes thing
the girl's voice is so smoothing
"Like your dead Girlfriend" Harsh line!
no dude the thing is that it stops being an actual candle and just turns into a metaphor slash makeshift euphemism
Fave song out the WHOLE movie. Great post!
the best number in the show
Bruh it's probably not ok but I know every word to almost every song on the album
Does anyone eles OTP them?
+Nonnicca Hartfield they're definitely my OTP along with Angel and Collins
my OTP!
the only straight one actually lol

Professor has me watching this for an assignment :/
I'm guessing that the premise is that no one wants to be alone; not in their morals, nor in there imperfections...
Please light my candle....ahhhhhhh, I love it!
I also love that perfect fifth at the end
mimi's voice is pretty perfect

MANDOLORIAN bought me here.
Consider that New York is designed on a numeric grid system, so they probably refer to "above" and "below" as relative directions...
I freaking love this song
She is nice voice ❤
ITS BLOODY CLAIRE OML
Great film!!!!
i love rent
My favorite song from the movie
You know...I saw this on Broadway and this movie. How come I just realized like 2 days ago this was a version of La Boheme?
I feel like such a fool.
love
Rosario Dawson was amazing in this show. I saw it three times with the original cast, lol.
Did this song at karioki. It was fun
very nice vid
I love this song
is her stash drugs i never realized that huh well im an idiot
Annphia Shelton Yeah, the candle is for heroin
this proves im to young for this screw my life:)
i know that mimi is 19 in this movie but how old is roger supposed to be???
but one thing whose her "FATHER" in singing voice lol
Roger's hot.
Roger and Mimi make the perfect couple!!
its what scrooge says. she's implying that he was being negative and calling him out on it basically. hope it clears that up a bit
Is that Claire from Daredevil?
Harry Lindfield indeed it is. Rosario Dawson... she's amazing.
He meant that Spike Lee was shooting a new movie down the street.
I always remind people of... who is she?
I really don't know if I like this song or not. I have mixed feelings. My favorite when it comes to meaning is "What You Own."
I like this song
Is that girl Dante knocks up in Clerks?
I'm only 19 but my mind is older
2:09 O_O that sound
Why did she knock on wood after she blew out the candle?
"It"s a living....."
THANK YOU
no, with my father
I’M ROGER🗣
I never understood why Rodger wasn't that upset when she initially said that she dropped her stash and then all of a sudden is like "oh drugs are bad!" But then is like "oh I found it I MEAN CANDY BAR WRAPPER" his logic is confusing
he didn't know her before, he didn't care for her as much. i guess in that neighborhood people just used it. he fall in love with her later, and then the idea of her using it was abhorrent and unacceptable. not confusing at all.
I could have performed this scene with my eyes closed. Baltimore school for the arts Alumni
Mimi does have a pretty voice.
what did Roger mean by Spike Lee is shooting down the street? was he just joking or something?
Could anyone tell me what does "Bah humbug" or whatever means?
Mimi says it after Roger says that Spike Lee is shooting down the street..
"I didn't recognize you without the handcuffs." Guys not an impressive line. Probably not gonna get a date that way.
I watch reign... isn't Roger in reign... he plays the person married to Mary I think
No
Everyone sings it better than Vanessa.
i like the way Renee Goldsberry sung this song in the Broadway play..it is so much better then this
one of the brst songs
Omg 2007 was 12 years ago
its still a good song
