    Lyrics:
    I'm bad news, a black and blues-er
    Who's a loser, a merry-go-round spiralling down
    I'm all used up, I'm chaffed and chewed up
    Who's just screwed up, the same old Charlie hitting the ground
    'Cause I'll never be the soul of a man, noble and wise
    Like the soul of a man who lifted me high
    Like the soul of a man, heroic and true
    Like the soul of a man that I looked up to
    What else could I do?
    Stupid hubris, no excuses
    I blew my fuses, I guess I'm just a ruse in my father's shoes
    Not amusin', no confusin' this streak of losin'
    Totally brutal and useless too
    How can I be the soul of a man, noble and wise
    Like the soul of a man who lifted me high?
    Like the soul of a man, heroic and true
    Like the soul of a man that I looked up to
    What else could I-
    Just when I'm reaching for that rung at the top
    On that broken heel steady, and ready, ready to drop
    When will I be the soul of a man, noble and wise
    Like the soul of a man who lifted me high?
    Soul of a man, heroic and true
    Like the soul of a man I looked up to
    What else could I do?
    I'll never be, no I'll never be
    I have gone and let you down
    Whoa, soul, soul of a man
    Here comes that familiar sound
    Same old Charlie hittin' the ground
    (Ahhh!)

    Why in the hell is everybody comparing Stark with Brendon? Brendon is indeed a great Charlie Price, but please don't compare Stark & Killian to other Charlie EVER!!!!!

  • @emerycohen6309

    People always say that Brendon's was less emotional, I didn't really understand that because Brendon is a singer and puts so much emotion into his singing. But now that I see this video I get the fact that Brendon is a singer first actor second so his performance is just as beautiful but Stark Stands is a musical actor and really puts a ton of emotion into his singing.

    I hate to be that person, but I just hope y'all realize that Stark ORIGINATED THIS ROLE. Y'all cannot listen to Brendon's version and say that Stark sang it wrong when he is the original Charlie Price, HE was the original voice for Charlie Price. Y'all really need to learn how to respect your faves without bashing others. Trust me, I think Brendon is great, but no one will ever do a better Charlie Price than the original Charlie Price. Stark Sands is the Tony award nominee, not Brendon Urie.

      @unidentifiedname6559 7 лет назад +21

      Cailyn Charron Yeah they're both great but the original is always better.However,Brendon has had more singing experience while Stark is a musical actor so it's pretty understandable why people like Brendon's version better (This is still great and emotional though,no doubt about that)

    • @tessmastro5708
      @tessmastro5708 6 лет назад +30

      Didn't realize people couldn't have opinions anymore. Look I love both and yes people can be better than the original. Example "And I Will Always Love You" was originally by Dolly Parton but the cover by Whitney Houston was way better. The reason I like Brendons version better is because he has more vocal experience and I prefer his voice more. Nobody is saying this version sucks they're saying they like Brens more.

    •  6 лет назад +16

      while i agree that people shouldn't disrespect Stark as Charlie, you know, there *are* people (like myself!) who like Brendon's version better. Stark's voice is just not my cup of tea and Brendon's is, simple as that.

    @djclarkson8001 7 лет назад +34

    saw them both but have to say Stark has the emotional depth to convey the power of the song. Both are amazing singing this. But Brendon was able to be in it because Stark gave such a fantastic performance when the show opened. His only problem with not winning the Tony for Best Actor was he was up against the other leading man Billy Porter. Talk about owning a role. Bottom line great singing by all and major kudos to Cindi Lauper. What a talent to put this all together. By far one of the best finales in a Broadway show in a long time.

    Stark’s version IS the BEST version and it’s also the original. Brendon is FANTASTIC (and he DOES sing it half an octave lower than Stark does), but this is PHENOMENAL. The originator of the role is ALWAYS the best in it, at least this is what I have seen on Broadway. Just like we can’t imagine Elphaba without thinking of Idina Menzel the same is true here. You can’t think of Charlie Price without thinking of Stark Sands. When I sing this (and in it's original key it's an INSANE song to sing), it's Stark's version that I strive to emulate. He's ELECTRIC. NO ONE can top him.❤️😍

    Soul of a man, noble and wise
    Like the soul of a man
    Who lifted me high
    Like the soul of a man
    Heroic and true
    Like the soul of man
    That I looked up to
    What else could I do?
    Stupid hubris
    No excuses
    I blew my fuses
    I guess I'm a ruse in my father's shoes
    Not amusing, no confusing
    This streak of losing
    Totally brutal and useless, too
    How can I be the soul of a man
    Noble and wise
    Like the soul of a man
    Who lifted me high
    Like the soul of a man
    Heroic and true
    Like the soul of a man
    That I looked up to
    What else could I...
    Just when I'm reaching for that rung at the top
    I'm that broken heel
    Unsteady and ready
    Ready to drop
    When will I be the
    Soul of a man
    Noble and wise
    Like the soul of a man
    Who lifted me high
    Soul of a man
    Heroic and true
    Like the soul of a man
    That I looked up to
    What else could I do?
    (Soul... of a man)
    I'll never be
    No I'll never be
    I have gone and let you down
    No, soul, soul of a man
    Here comes that familiar sound
    Same old Charlie hitting the ground

    When he raised his hands in 1:53, it reminded me so strongly of brent carver in his tony performance for parade
