Okay, four points: 1. I didn't realize that this song could be sadder?? Like, wow, okay, I didn't need my heart anyway 2. The portrayal of anxiety and a panic attack is done so well, just the little movements and that one thing he does where it's kind of like a shoulder roll? Wow, like, it's almost painful to watch, but it's so good 3. *wiggles hands* PT CRUISER & *points dramatically at floor* BED are A+ moments 4. George could stab me 10 times and then push me into a ditch and I'd probably thank him
@b a s i c a l l y . m e And that scares me. It's so real. I haven't had one of these moments yet (cause I've never been to a party...), but I can just imagine myself locked in a bathroom hiding from it. Maybe not having quite as much of a mental breakdown, but still. Especially if I'd just lost by best friend. George Salazar is one of the best actors I've yet to come across. I heard this song only two days ago because of youtube autoplay while I was listening to Book of Mormon (which in my opinion is the best play ever, although this one is a very close second), and I've already seen bootlegs of the entire play and memorized this song and the opening number. I don't have a problem you do shut up 😂 It makes me so sad that you can only get tickets for this for the broadway show. I mean I'm really happy for the cast for making it to Broadway, but I live on the complete opposite side of the US. Hope they rent their rights soon! Although I can't imagine anyone other than George playing this part...
I love the fact this has a slower tempo than the original one. It gives more depth and it has an emotional build-up which gives me, the listener, a rOLLERCOASTERofEMOTIONS
joe said that when casting for musicals, he looks for actors before singers. not to discredit george’s singing ability at all, he is absolutely amazing, but i can see what joe means here and why george was casted. he’s phenomenal at not only hitting the notes but making you feel the emotion behind every one, at channeling the character, at fantastically portraying every sentiment behind the words physically. what he shows here is that he’s a phenomenal actor, his singing is an added bonus. that is why i love joe and george.
cosmicaddress i love Joe's vision. not to discredit singers, of course, it's easier to get vocal coaches and to improve the singing ability of someone than to cast someone with poor acting ability. when your goal is to tell a story, acting should be put first. it's musical theatre, after all, not theatrical music.
thank you for this perfect description. i was ganna say: i actually swear George was crying at the end and it made me almost start crying. also george salazar being such an increadible actor and singer makes me wanna have a career just like him.
George is also extremely nice and undoubtedly funny, on and off of the stage. At the stage door, he tries his best to make small talk and take pictures with EVERYONE, despite being on a restricted time, he's very compassionate and takes compliments with so much modesty. He's phenomenal.
1.Those high notes!! 2. I WANNA DANCE WITH SOMEBODY 3. This is the closest I'm going to get to seeing BMC Update: I'm seeing BMC in August! Congrats on going to Broadway!!
Izaya Uke Orihara Just title it something completely rando and have a thumbnail not even close to be more chill then come back here and tell the title of the video
I kinda want to see the aftermath of this just to confirm he's actually alright and not truly having a panic attack He's so good at performing that I'm genuinely concerned
You should see Ben Platt then. There's a part in the musical Dear Evan Hansen where he's doing a speech and drops the notecards he has in his hands trying to read since he has severe anxiety and he's sitting there on the ground for like 30 seconds seamlessly looking like he's having an actual panic attack. Like it looks so real that I'm sure that during the years they've performed someone from the audience has either gotten onto the stage or yelled out if he was okay.
Aaaaaaaaa I have really bad anxiety so I get panic attacks easily and George did such a great job portraying the tics and emotions. The shoulder rolls and almost desperately picking at the grout. Also at the "knock knock" part... Sensory overload was apllied correctly and made me breakdown. It was probably only one person knocking at the door but it feels like so much and you start getting really scared, upset, and/or angry. Stomping the foot on the floor and the overall display of a panic attack was done so well. I applaud you Saladbar now just stop making me cry.
I don't think anyone was actually at the door. He imagined it, in reality it was just his heart beating like crazy because he was having a panic attack. That's why as soon as he splashed water in his face and calmed down a little, he couldn't hear it anymore. Which just makes it even sadder.
I admire the fact that you can tell that George had really gone out of his way to improve. Not just his voice, but the way he presents the character of Michael
fun fact - throwing water on your face is a tipp skill u learn in dbt to cope with panic attacks, anxiety, self harm, and dissociation - no one asked but I like this "fun" fact so
nikolas charlie this reminds me of my teenage choreographer had a panic the day before opening(shocker lol) and she ran into my private dressing room I share with my other Cinderella(we were doing this show) and she quickly ran to the sink, splashed water in her face a lot and starting saying the things she said. It was scary but her calmed her down super easily and fast!
yeah every time im having my 'bad days' i spend most of my time in the bathroom and i feel better when i come out after 2 hours. water saves me every single time
My friend linked me this because we were messing around and I was acting like I was gonna become a jerk, and she sent me this so I'd 'remember who I am' XD
6 years later i still come back to this video as a fully grown adult. still makes me reminisce about when I used to love this song, musicals, just the environment of it all. THIS SONG ESPECIALLY!
Okay I have anxiety and panic attacks and the way George portrays the characters anxiety and panic attacks.......WoAH he's improved so much it's almost realistic 10/10
I just Love the way he shows what Michael is feeling. All the pain and sadness. You can really see it and my heart hurts everytime becaus it's so emotional. I think he is my role model. Some day I want to be as good as he is. ♡
As a person with anxiety, I can confirm that this is 100% what an anxiety attack feels like and George portrays it perfectly while still being able to sing like an angel. He has said before that it is a panic attack on stage and I knew that as soon as I heard the song. He gets every part of it down from the small things like tilting his head, whipping his hands on his Jean's, and picking at the bathtub. But he also has the big things down such as when he is freaking out about things that dont seem like they have anything to do with the situation ("is there a sadder sight than..."*points to himself*, "he must be a stoner" "God he's such a looser!") Because all of this happens in a panic attack and I truly applaud joe and george for portraying this so perfectly
it's funny cause I have a friend Michael and my school was having a fire drill and the teacher asked if everyone was here and I shouted "Michael's in the bathroom"
Ok. Lets face it. The way that he is expressing Michael’s emotion is amazing. I no longer see George in this video, I see Michael. He is such an amazing phenomenal actor. He needs a tony nomination if it goes to broadway.
This is why I love to see actors return to roles. This version is a million times more emotionally crushing than the last time he profound it. He's grown so much as an actor and performer I'm crying
I love how they changed the tempo just for George version of MITB It's kinda interesting to see 'cause, at first, this song was more like a goofy, funny song, (the original version) until George came in (it's like that, funny but bitter song at the same time) And now it became the most sad song in BMC soundtrack
I love how you can feel his overflowing emotions: his anger, sadness, every emotion that Michael Mell is feeling, you can feel it right through the screen. I actually shed a tear on this one, no joke. aLSO I WANT TO GIVE GEORGE A HUG, GEEZUS.
It’s insane how this song is the first song to make me feel extremely emotional without having to already be sad, then click play on the song. (Hopefully that makes sense lol) Throughout this entire video, my heart began racing, because George is so incredible with putting a performance that makes the audience antsy and in awe. According to some comments, he also did small ticks in this performance that someone with anxiety may do? I just love how someone can destroy themselves on a stage and have the audience go through the same emotions.
The Forgotten Portrait not to burst your bubble my dude but its just good acting. As an actor its your job to spill your heart out on the floor to help others a.) know they aren’t alone and b.) teach those who have never been there. Its why I act! Lol
I wasn't ready to be hurt in such a way, but wow. George is so incredibly talented, and he has improved so much. I absolutely love his display of emotions and the ability to move other's as well. Definitely a brilliant actor of great talent.
I cried a little when I first listened to this song on the album. I cried a little more when I watched a video from the show of him singing this. I can't stop crying from watching this. His performance as Michael is going to be insane this year
Honestly, I feel that this performance is a million times better, from the picking at the bath tub to the simple voice rising, it makes it more intense and gets people one edge. Also at one point, I was convinced that George was crying which made it all seem so real and come to life. If I could ever go to a performance, I definitely would.
I love how much more emotional his performance has become, and how slowed down and in-depth into how he's feeling compared to the OCR is really noticeable. I can barely go 15 seconds into the performance and George makes me want to bawl my eyes out. It's just that good.
this song is the one I send people when I try to explain my panic attacks and anxiety... it explains what it feels like to lose everything and everyone even if its not the end of the world it feels like it... the first time I had to say goodbye to my BFF for her going home (which is like a good 100+ miles) this was the song I sang on the way back... and George will always be one of the best for this song... bless him so much.
I think he honestly nailed the panic attack more this time around! It's a lot more believable and that much more emotional. He improved in such a short time.
He’s giving this 800% and they’re in a rehearsal space with shit acoustics. I think to him no matter where he is physically, he’s in that bathroom. He truly is an artist
Everyone talks about the little things he does to portray anxiety really well but no one talks about how the song was obviously written by someone with anxiety, the mood swings, trying to come up with an explanation of why you were gone or crying, and the thing that really hit home, trying to joke his why out of an attack. I know this happens to me a lot where I’ll try to joke myself calm, dry sarcasm like in the song is usually best. Every time I listen to this song I find new things that make it 20 times better to me
☁️I would swear that if I didn't know that George Salazar is a great actor, I would think that this person really had a bad day and that he would cry at any moment. His expressions, acting and how those two things work with the same song is really incredible, a work that really is to be applauded. I think this performance is the most expressive of Michael's panic attack, and the blows of the hands are a very big detail in that regard. Bottom line: George is a person to be admired for his talent in both acting and voice.
Okay, four points:
1. I didn't realize that this song could be sadder?? Like, wow, okay, I didn't need my heart anyway
2. The portrayal of anxiety and a panic attack is done so well, just the little movements and that one thing he does where it's kind of like a shoulder roll? Wow, like, it's almost painful to watch, but it's so good
3. *wiggles hands* PT CRUISER & *points dramatically at floor* BED are A+ moments
4. George could stab me 10 times and then push me into a ditch and I'd probably thank him
Emily Huff now I'm thinking of the cell block tango "he ran into my knife ten times"
Emily Huff the 4th one omg same
I RELATE
If anyone stabbed me 10 times and pushed me into a ditch I’d thank them-
I think he's too sweet to even push someone
It's insane how he can get so in character and play this sad boy having a panic attack in a bathroom while still hitting every note perfectly
@b a s i c a l l y . m e And that scares me. It's so real. I haven't had one of these moments yet (cause I've never been to a party...), but I can just imagine myself locked in a bathroom hiding from it.

I don't have a problem you do shut up 😂 It makes me so sad that you can only get tickets for this for the broadway show. I mean I'm really happy for the cast for making it to Broadway, but I live on the complete opposite side of the US. Hope they rent their rights soon! Although I can't imagine anyone other than George playing this part...
He was like actually crying tho... He made me cry, what the hell?? T^T
exaggeratedeyeroll This legitimately made me cry when he said God he’s such a loser! I just lost it...
Angelina Jiovani Same here human. I was in tears!
That’s our George. 🥰
GEROGE LOOKS SO SAD IN THIS HE'S SUCH A GOOD SINGER SOMEBODY HUG HIM.

This comment hit me on an emotional level geez
Lucy Erspamer big mood.
Lucy Erspamer .....
It would funny if it didn’t hurt
GEORGE HAS IMPROVED SO MUCH
And here I thought perfection couldn't be improved.
He's been singing it a lot lol
Karinna Crespo he’s always been perfect-
Right he shows sooo much emotion.
I KNOW RIGHT! HE SHOWS MORE EMOTIONS AND EXPRESSES MORE
I love the fact this has a slower tempo than the original one. It gives more depth and it has an emotional build-up which gives me, the listener, a rOLLERCOASTERofEMOTIONS
Poptarts sad emotions
It's also because they are still practicing and getting everything perfect, then they will speed it up.
Sydney Parker Ohhh that makes so much sense :o
Poptarts I agree
Sydney Parker I saw it live a few weeks ago (It was amazing). They do the slower tempo during the actual show :)
all I want is just a full version of George singing I wanna dance with somebody
Lucy Erspamer give the peopkr what they want!! i'd pay for that
Lucy Erspamer oh my god yes
YES.
I didn't know how much i needed this before i read it.

Yah a good actor with a more minimal vocal range,compared to a shit actor that can sing like an angel,well who’s gonna get the part
thank you for this perfect description. i was ganna say: i actually swear George was crying at the end and it made me almost start crying. also george salazar being such an increadible actor and singer makes me wanna have a career just like him.

Britney Creamer he should be on Broadway! Cause ya know this is an off broadway musical.
Mara Lewis exactly!
Mara Lewis He's been on Broadway before! He made his Broadway debut in the 2011 Godspell revival. His solo is called "Light of the world."

Dark Web IT SHWILL BE BEAUTIFUL
If this musical doesn’t win a tony I’ll lose it
LOOK AT THIS PERFOMANCE
Carol Koski George deserves best supporting actor.
it's premiering off-broadway though
It sadly isn't eligible for tonys because it's off-broadway. The only way to get nominated is to be a broadway show.
coffeeandchocolate I second this opinion
lets hope for drama desk awards!
Aaaaaaaaa
I have really bad anxiety so I get panic attacks easily and George did such a great job portraying the tics and emotions. The shoulder rolls and almost desperately picking at the grout.

yES!!! I couldnt think of how to put that into words but it feels so real???? (like?? is he ok???) oof I love him
(i get the message completely but i can’t help but cry with laughter at the ‘SALADBAR’ )
Anxiety attacks*
Philip Hamilton Panic Attacks and Anxiety attacks are basically the same thing smh🤦🏼♀️
I don't think anyone was actually at the door. He imagined it, in reality it was just his heart beating like crazy because he was having a panic attack. That's why as soon as he splashed water in his face and calmed down a little, he couldn't hear it anymore. Which just makes it even sadder.
I admire the fact that you can tell that George had really gone out of his way to improve. Not just his voice, but the way he presents the character of Michael
This is gonna go viral and I’m READY
That shit goes viral (ooh wah ooh oh wah ooh)
Emily Huff dang it you beat me to it
charlotte Dorey viral? Bmc isn't that popular. Maybe get popular, but I doubt it will get more than 50k views, if even that.
Oooo I’m not
I was mostly doing it for the pun that Emily Huff made :)
fun fact - throwing water on your face is a tipp skill u learn in dbt to cope with panic attacks, anxiety, self harm, and dissociation - no one asked but I like this "fun" fact so
nikolas charlie what? for real?? trank you! it'll be helpful to me ;;
Rainbow Lover cold water shocks your body and forces you to come back down to earth without harming you
nikolas charlie this reminds me of my teenage choreographer had a panic the day before opening(shocker lol) and she ran into my private dressing room I share with my other Cinderella(we were doing this show) and she quickly ran to the sink, splashed water in her face a lot and starting saying the things she said. It was scary but her calmed her down super easily and fast!
yeah every time im having my 'bad days' i spend most of my time in the bathroom and i feel better when i come out after 2 hours. water saves me every single time
I learned this in therapy because like the cold water shocks you and stuff
Stop it George. I woke up at 4 AM to get ready for school, NOT to have an emotional breakdown

Meh Space Dorito pls tell us the good news owo
Its up!!
they posted it already :3
I saw this in my recommended and prepared to cry
Kassie with a K GANGBARUBY
ikr I'm just like prepare to have a mental breakdown
Finally, an actor who shows amazing raw emotion on stage. It’s pretty hard to find
Okay I refuse to believe that he doesnt cry everytime he sings it
George Salazar could literally run me over with a car and I’d still ask for his autograph.
He’s just so good.
Or a hug
WOW George is such a good actor 😱 it’s not even the actual performance and he’s giving it his all!
6 years later i still come back to this video as a fully grown adult. still makes me reminisce about when I used to love this song, musicals, just the environment of it all. THIS SONG ESPECIALLY!
I started to worry if he was okay, George's acting is so convincing
Shame I'll never get to see it
I hate being English sometimes :,)
BIG FUCKNN MOOD
obsession ! Shame I'll never get to see it even though I live in the US :(
sprucie solilotree same man. Same.
It's better than being Irish, you might be able to see another cast do it but there's no chance here😂
Same
Okay I have anxiety and panic attacks and the way George portrays the characters anxiety and panic attacks.......WoAH he's improved so much it's almost realistic 10/10
I just Love the way he shows what Michael is feeling. All the pain and sadness. You can really see it and my heart hurts everytime becaus it's so emotional.
I think he is my role model. Some day I want to be as good as he is. ♡
As a person with anxiety, I can confirm that this is 100% what an anxiety attack feels like and George portrays it perfectly while still being able to sing like an angel.

it's funny cause I have a friend Michael and my school was having a fire drill and the teacher asked if everyone was here and I shouted "Michael's in the bathroom"
Jeramy Heere beautiful
Litreally me
teacher: “i don’t know why you’re so enthusiastic about telling me that but thank you”
“All by himself!”
NOOOOOO WAYYYYYYYYYYY
Ok. Lets face it. The way that he is expressing Michael’s emotion is amazing. I no longer see George in this video, I see Michael. He is such an amazing phenomenal actor. He needs a tony nomination if it goes to broadway.
True💕
I keep coming back to this man...
those opening piano notes are enough to send my soul flying
There is no doubt in the world that nobody can play Michale better than George.
And whoever gave this a dislike, Where is your heart?!
Reasons why George salazar is a god
can we just take a moment to appreciate that sigh before the chorus, like he’s hesitating as if he doesn’t want to believe that he’s there alone
This is why I love to see actors return to roles. This version is a million times more emotionally crushing than the last time he profound it. He's grown so much as an actor and performer I'm crying
MY BOY
MY BABY BOY
I love how they changed the tempo just for George version of MITB
It's kinda interesting to see 'cause, at first, this song was more like a goofy, funny song, (the original version) until George came in
(it's like that, funny but bitter song at the same time)
And now it became the most sad song in BMC soundtrack
I love how you can feel his overflowing emotions: his anger, sadness, every emotion that Michael Mell is feeling, you can feel it right through the screen. I actually shed a tear on this one, no joke.
aLSO I WANT TO GIVE GEORGE A HUG, GEEZUS.
It’s insane how this song is the first song to make me feel extremely emotional without having to already be sad, then click play on the song. (Hopefully that makes sense lol)
Throughout this entire video, my heart began racing, because George is so incredible with putting a performance that makes the audience antsy and in awe. According to some comments, he also did small ticks in this performance that someone with anxiety may do? I just love how someone can destroy themselves on a stage and have the audience go through the same emotions.
The Forgotten Portrait not to burst your bubble my dude but its just good acting. As an actor its your job to spill your heart out on the floor to help others a.) know they aren’t alone and b.) teach those who have never been there. Its why I act! Lol
Genally Ruiz You didn’t burst my bubble? Of course I know it’s good acting..
He is such a brilliant actor god give this man every role in broadway
did y’all see that spit go flying? that’s ben platt
I thought you were going to say "Ben Splatt".. because puns.
Stained Brain
Ben Spitt
I wonder if they know each other...
i saw him at the joe iconis and family event on may 19 and he had a mic stand directly in front of me and he s p i t on my hand
Sophia oh my god
And just when I thought I couldn't cry any harder...
JEREMY, LOOK WHAT YOU'VE DONE!
You realized what you've done
I wasn't ready to be hurt in such a way, but wow. George is so incredibly talented, and he has improved so much. I absolutely love his display of emotions and the ability to move other's as well. Definitely a brilliant actor of great talent.
you can even see the sadness on his face after the first chorus my goodness my boy is improving
the acting was so powerful.. i could feel his pain through the screen.
never fails to make me cry! my boy georgie is so talented
George Salazar is phenomenal. What a talent. He conveys so much emotion in this song. I can’t hear anyone else sing this song. It will always be him.
MY TEARS ARE FALLING OFF MY FACE DJSJDJDKKDKSKSKDO (Sad and happy tears) I’m so glad this is going on broadway. I love George so mucj😭
Every time George hits the tub or the floor his floofs just fly in the air it’s amazing
As someone who has anxiety, his portrayal of a Panic Attack is soooo good 😍
bold of me to assume watching this for the 100th time wouldn't make me cry
I cried a little when I first listened to this song on the album. I cried a little more when I watched a video from the show of him singing this. I can't stop crying from watching this. His performance as Michael is going to be insane this year
i've never seen this song performed before i've only heard it. yes george!!!
HOW does George make this performance even more heartbreaking that it was before- genuinely didn’t know that was a thing
He's so insanely talented wOW
Honestly, I feel that this performance is a million times better, from the picking at the bath tub to the simple voice rising, it makes it more intense and gets people one edge. Also at one point, I was convinced that George was crying which made it all seem so real and come to life. If I could ever go to a performance, I definitely would.
Oh, look who's about to cry now. (It's me.)
Its so much more emotional than it used to be
George Salazar is amazing and he's improved so much and I love it!!!
Edit: this is filled with so much emotion I almost cried omg
Heart = Broken
Mind = Messed with
Emotions = Everywhere
Eyes = *Crying*
3:09 The spit though.
Rylie I mean when ur having a fake panic attack :/ lol
Definitely King George-in, so much passion in the performance!
I DON'T WANT TO RELIVE THIS
MICHAEL SWEETIE I’M SORRY
Michael Mell
I live for your profile pic
i want this played at my funeral
TONY AWARDS HEREE WE COME
I love how much more emotional his performance has become, and how slowed down and in-depth into how he's feeling compared to the OCR is really noticeable.
I can barely go 15 seconds into the performance and George makes me want to bawl my eyes out. It's just that good.
this song is the one I send people when I try to explain my panic attacks and anxiety... it explains what it feels like to lose everything and everyone even if its not the end of the world it feels like it... the first time I had to say goodbye to my BFF for her going home (which is like a good 100+ miles) this was the song I sang on the way back... and George will always be one of the best for this song... bless him so much.
me:oh no this is gonna make me feel bad
George Salazar:" I-"
me: OH YEP THERE IT IS,MY HEART IS BROKEN ;-;
I think he honestly nailed the panic attack more this time around! It's a lot more believable and that much more emotional.
He improved in such a short time.
Be More Chill? More like
*HAVE MORE CHILLS*
I AM SOBBING i love this song and george salazar so much
My casting type is normally depressed/paranoid/anxious characters and geaorge is now my new role model
He’s giving this 800% and they’re in a rehearsal space with shit acoustics. I think to him no matter where he is physically, he’s in that bathroom. He truly is an artist
goosebumps. that's all i have to say. goosebumps.
I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THIS TODAY I HAVE BEEN BLESSED
He is such a great actor and singer. Absolute perfection
i literally screamed when i saw this holy moly
Everyone talks about the little things he does to portray anxiety really well but no one talks about how the song was obviously written by someone with anxiety, the mood swings, trying to come up with an explanation of why you were gone or crying, and the thing that really hit home, trying to joke his why out of an attack. I know this happens to me a lot where I’ll try to joke myself calm, dry sarcasm like in the song is usually best. Every time I listen to this song I find new things that make it 20 times better to me
*thounsands of hearts breaking in the distance*
Jesus christ. I love the energy he puts into it
I just witness humanity being brought back to life thank you George. I CRIED FOR MICHAEL HE IS MY SPIRT ANIMAL.
He puts so much emotion into his performances and is a phenomenal singer.
If you listen carefully you can hear me praising and sobbing at this perfection
☁️I would swear that if I didn't know that George Salazar is a great actor, I would think that this person really had a bad day and that he would cry at any moment. His expressions, acting and how those two things work with the same song is really incredible, a work that really is to be applauded. I think this performance is the most expressive of Michael's panic attack, and the blows of the hands are a very big detail in that regard. Bottom line: George is a person to be admired for his talent in both acting and voice.
I started off lip syncing along to this and then I had to just stop and cry because George Salazar is just to damn good
God this song is so relatable and George has improved a lot and the song itself has improved I’m tearing up someone hold me.
SLAMMING ON THE TUB ACTUALLY MADE ME C R YYYYY
This song is the reason I know this musical
I think this is one of the few songs in the entire world that will actually make me cry.
Will forever watch literally anything with George in it haha
Hell yes Queen slay that song.
Michael Mell thought this was me, and I got confused XD
Mweiki Saurus oh my gosh I also got confused. 😂
Michael Mell I actually stopped and stared in disbelief for a moment or two, so wondering if I had seen this video before.
Mweiki Saurus I was wondering why I replied to myself 😂
The knocking parts where they all start yelling and from then on, its like you can feel his pain its so convincing. George Salazar is truly amazing.
I know didn't George could get better but I was wrong
The voice cracks, the true portrayal of mental illness, the George Salazar , the heartbreak 😢😢
