You must just be watching the wrong movies then. There are so many movies that have come out recently with super iconic scenes that stick with you. “Nah imma do my own thing” - SpiderVerse “I’m Just Ken” - Barbie Almost every scene in “everything everywhere all at once” but especially the big speech moment Rocket Racoon’s entire story - Guardians of the Galaxy Vol 3 “The Trinity Test” - Oppenheimer (Spoiler) _____’s death - Mission Impossible Dead Reckoning Part One Anytime the Indiana jones theme played in Dial of Destiny And many more… This scene definitely falls into the category but certainly it is not “rare”. You either just have a bad memory or don’t see a lot of good movies.
Ngl, this scene actually made me cry. Not only from the utter perfection of his performance, and the depth of emotion conveyed by both actors, but also watching his character in this scene come out of his shell for one of the first times in the movie. Is was absolutely breathtaking. One of my favorites.
I just watched this today, this scene literally brought tears to my cynical eyes. What a great and moving scene. Both actors really showed their range here.
@@tellmesomething2412 i don’t think you’re understand it’s the style he sings it, watching the movie helps you understand it, maybe idk understand it more lol.
The fact that he played this live - is really cool. This isn't recorded over, they wanted it live and "raw" so everything you hear is from him singing it right here in the scene live.
That scene could have gone a 1000 different ways & been totally childish … instead they chose a classic song by Hall & Oats, gave it a heart beat of great emotion & put REAL CINEMA STORY telling behind it. That’s STORYTELLING 10.10 for cast, writer & director.
well the song was shown before hand in the bar, it fits the narrative of how she acts. He literally says he had nightmares about it, went home after he met her, and learned it??? What are you trying to say??? I dont get it. Did you watch the film or just this scene???
Just say you don't understand and ask for an explanation instead of trying to belittle someone else's opinions. He had nightmares of this song and mentions that in one of their first meetings, we know this. The fact that he went home and learned the song shows that he was already beginning to face his fears and come out of his shell even after the little time they had known eachother and spent together. He learned it for multiple reasons to me. One, to face his fears and the fact that he used to actually have nightmares of the song. Two, because it's a song that first played in the bar on their first date, so it's romantic for the both of them that he would even go through the trouble of learning a whole song just because they both knew it played on their first date. Do you watch movies just for jokes and explosions?????? /s @@curto201
@@curto201 I mean, its a dark comedy full of intentional cringe moments. In my head I was thinking it might have been a funny reveal that he is beginner on the piano (we basically know nothing of his skill level prior to this) and embarrass himself in front of everyone, but still flatter JLaw.
I ain't kidding.... I actually applauded right after he hit the last note like I was actually dining in that restaurant. Damn he covered this song so good.
It’s not only that she feels the gravity of the lyrics, but she also sees how innocent and talented the boy is, and yet here she is doing to him exactly what the song says
As he keeps singing his character gets less and less shy and starts to actually let go and this is shown by how he starts singing more fully and with more confidence this was beautiful
Totally unexpected and was essentially the underlying message of this entire movie. She has the ability to hurt him due to her history and he’s infatuated but also happy with how she’s pulling him out of his fear. This scene is perfect for this movie and really ties everything together. Perfect choice of song for the narrative. And the slow crawl towards her as he sings the line, “and if you’re in it for love you ain’t gonna get too far” shows she’s the unintentional bad guy at that point in time
This scene was, frankly, masterful. The kid had no idea what this song meant, until Jlaw taught him what it meant. Even Jlaw didn't know what this song meant. None of us did. That a comedy can do this is just, beyond description. Bravo, Jlaw and crew. Bravo.
This is now one of my favourite movie scenes, loved this cover.. it's like the movie was written around the song, the lyrics represent the scenario so well..
Without this scene, it would have been a fair rating, but this scene absolutely made the movie for me. One of the most memorable I've seen recently, and definitely wasn't expecting it from an otherwise fairly low-brow film.
I've probably heard this song a hundred times over the years. Like most people, I just tune in when I hear "Oh-oh here she comes, she's a maneater" The way this was sung, the context in the story, he pulled out the meaning and emotion from every single word. It's a completely different song for me now. Even revisiting the original, I find that to be empty compared to this.
Same here for me!!! I've always been a Hall & Oates fan. Maneater was always a fav for me. But I NEVER ONCE really took to heart and meditated on the lyrics of this song till this movie and scene. This song now has an entire new meaning and vibe for me. All-time great song now.
I 💯 agree!! It took this much known song and rocketed it to top spot for me in cover versions of songs. His voice, tone and the piano playing combine to make this a breathtaking performance!! 💜
The singing and piano arrangement is absolutely stunning..... but Jennifer's reaction is the resl star. So unbelievablly good it was actually chilling. WHAT AN ACTRESS ❤
It would not have been a performance at all if it where not for both of them …Not just the actress , he was magnificent, both made the scene perfectos.👏👏👏👏👏👏
This right here is Hollywood magic ✨It doesn’t happen very often these days. J. Law’s subtle facial expressions and neck twinge convey so much. Andrew Barth Feldman’s broadway background gave him the tools to be in the moment with the scene and the song and to bring Percy’s vulnerability to life. This scene alone deserves an award, beautifully written and directed, perfect pairing of actors.
Grown ass man here, and this scene made me cry. It's just so affecting. From the complete adoration that Jessica Lawrence's character is showing while staring at him playing, to his tonality in the lyrics. It's just such a moving scene.
Self proclaiming “grown ass man” doesn’t make it the least manly thing. Just embrace your femininity and leave the grown ass men ( who aren’t crying during a cheesy rom com) to do the grown men stuff.
Literally saw this movie last night and have watched just this part about 15 times because he nailed it and I just love Jennifer Lawrence face while he's playing it
I'm a socially awkward autistic musician and even the same obsession for the lyrics of this song, so I have quite a bit in common with Percy and I absolutely love his performance. ...but what gets me about this scene the most is actually Jennifer's reaction. That's what REALLY makes it a gut punch. I've been in this situation and I've seen that face and this scene just absolutely f-ing kills me. It's perfect.
This scene was where Jen reminded me and without a doubt how amazing she is at her craft. You can feel her soul being ripped out as the camera zooms in and my eyes started leaking before I realized that she had completely sucked me in. She is so good ❤
This song never really had much of my atention but now is unforgetable, the situation, the raction of her and the performance and cinematography where astonishing
Never have I ever expected to genuinely tear up while watching a movie that was promoted as "raunchy comedy". This scene is moving as hell and the acting is heartbraking. I acutally added this song to my playlist and revisit this scene regurarly.
Tell me about it. I thought I knew what I was in for when I went to see this movie, and for the first half, I was enjoying the raunchy comedy. Then this scene dropped, and I started to genuinely respect this movie.
Ironically. she was going to tell the restaurant what a magnificent lover he was , he turned it around by singing what she was really like lol. Food for thought 😁
When he started singing i was wow this sounds so familiar and than it hit me. I would have never thought a ballad version would be so great, then again i didn't thought the same from a-ha take on me on deadpool 2 almost got me crying.
I thought the same thing! I loove the unplugged version of take on me from deadpool 2! Also when I played the game The Last of Us 2 there was a similar acoustic version in there which was great too :P Some songs really get new meaning when performed in different ways I think ☺
It’s embarrassing how many times I’ve watched this scene, never cared much for the song before, but after seeing this show I want to buy a piano and learn this song! Love it! Pretty good movie too, heartfelt and funny, plus Lawrence is an amazing actress ❤️
OBSESSED with this cut. I adore him so much and this song is so incredibly appropriate for the film on multiple levels. I've been listening to this on repeat for weeks.
I was stunned to find myself teary eyed after this scene. It’s been a while since a scene in a teen movie made me feel this way. It didn’t only elevated the song, it sent it through the roof.
Never thought I'd ever be the type to replay a movie scene an unhealthy number of times, but I guess this scene alone is the exception for me.. Its without a doubt this is one of the best comedy movies I've seen this year, and the casting was perfect.. The emotional performances in this scene were pure perfection from both Jennifer and Andrew, definitely now on my list of fav movies.. I love it!!!
There are so many popular songs out there that if you just slow them down, they become so much more meaningful and emotional. It's like the scene later in the movie when he gulps down his wine and his father says "savor it son, savor it" Slow down the music and savor it. Slow down your life and savor it.
She'll only come out at night The lean and hungry type Nothing is new I've seen her here before Watching and waiting Ooh, she's sitting with you But her eyes are on the door So many have paid to see What you think you're getting for free The woman is wild A she-cat tamed by the purr of a jaguar Money's the matter If you're in it for love You ain't gonna get too far (Oh, here she comes) Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up (Oh, here she comes) She's a maneater (Oh, here she comes) Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up (Oh, here she comes) She's a maneater I wouldn't if I were you I know what she can do She's deadly, man She could really rip your world apart Mind over matter Ooh, the beauty is there But a beast is in the heart (Oh, here she comes) Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up (Oh, here she comes) She's a maneater (Oh, here she comes) Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up (Oh, here she comes) She's a maneater Ooh (Oh, here she comes) here she comes Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up (Whoa, here she comes) (watch out) She's a maneater (Oh, here she comes) (she's a maneater) Ooh, she'll chew you up (Oh, here she comes) here she comes She's a maneater (Oh, here she comes) (watch out) She'll only come out at night, ooh (Oh, here she comes) here she comes She's a maneater (Oh, here she comes) (she's a maneater) The woman is wild, woo (Oh, here she comes) here she comes Watch out, boy, watch out, boy (Oh, here she comes) Oh, watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out (Oh, here she comes) (watch out) yeah, yeah She's a maneater (Oh, here she comes) (she's a maneater) She's watching and waiting, ooh (Oh, here she comes) Oh, she's a maneater
This scene makes the movie for me. Andrew’s character is phenomenal singing this song. He reminds me of pets sounds Brian Wilson he absolutely crushes this song with the grace of a legend and Jennifer’s acting in this scene shows why she’s so talented. She conveys so much emotion with her eyes. Love astonishment guilt because she knows that in this moment she loves andrew’s character she’s astonished by his talent but she also knows she lied to him and she feels bad about it. It’s absolutely a masterclass of acting and singing in one scene. This scene is THE BEST scene in the entire movie.
I remember watching this movie during a long flight....this scene literally gave me goosebumps ❤ the expressions both of them have...the sudden realisation of the depth he has in her face ....his transition from a shy introverted boy to an expressive talented pianist and how well the lyrics synced with the entire movie ....this scene is actually a masterpiece 😍
I love the dynamic this song brings into the air. The lyrics suit them so well. With that beautiful voice and JLaw’s amazing acting, this scene is breathtakingly romantic.
Some renditions of songs make you realize just how amazing they are. I probably heard this song thousands of times growing up but this version is my favorite.
I felt the same, the original is ok but this version has become one of my favourites, wonder if hall and oates have ever played this song as a ballad 🤔 Can’t imagine they’d do any better than this though, Andrew nailed it! Was curious if it was actually him playing the piano, guess it is bc I watched him do a cover of an Elton John tune, talented dude to be sure!
Daryl Hall had a web series called Live from Daryl’s House where he jammed with all types of musicians. He sang his hits in various genres and tempos, and the show made me have even more respect for him as a musician. One favorite episode was Rob Thomas from Matchbox Twenty singing “Kiss on My List” as a slowed-down love song. Wonderful. Testament to what great songwriters Hall and Oates were.
I was bored last night and looking for something to watch on Netflix and I came across this movie and I started not to watch it figuring it's for the young folks but I went ahead and watched it anyway. It turned out to be a great movie and this scene was so chill and awesome at the same time. I'm sure Hall & Oates would be proud of his rendition...very well performed. 🎹🙂👍
I just watched this last night. Shocking thoughtful and funny. The first half has some great comedy. Then pulls a switcharoo and tugs on your feel strings. It was way better than I expected.
Ok so I will be honest, I thought because it being a comedy, it would start and he would suck. What instead happened is I watched one of the most surprisingly powerful and emotional scenes I've ever seen. When he hammers in the notes, it is so intense. Well done with this scene.
This scene completely surprised me, he's so good! I was thinking he should pick up music instead of going to princeton. That's not to mention the emotion conveyed between them. Excellent.
And at the same time she was becoming less confident, second guessing her own actions and the effect they were having on him. Idk I haven’t seen the movie, but that’s what I got from it. Great acting and writing!
What a genius song choice and emotionally palpable and gorgeous arrangement...this scene was perfection. I've watched this over and over. I really liked the movie too, but this song...
Two incredible actors. Jlaw's nervous gulp and especially her little look off to the side, like eyes are on her, like she's been revealed and for the very first time in a very long time, she feels just a smidge abashed.
Love the nervous looks over the shoulder, if that doesn’t scream anyone who has wanted to perform without the confidence… I don’t know what would. I feel that one
This scene is so vital to the movie and is enacted in sm depth because not only does he remember the song they talked about on their first date, but it is also the song that he mentions gave him nightmares when he was a kid. This scene metaphorically and realistically represents him overcoming that nightmare and also his fear of playing in public. Essentially getting a little more out there, which is so sweet and admirable. Such a great movie. 🥲
This was just amazing, so well done. To see two characters changed before your eyes in a matter of minutes. He gaining confidence he didn't realize he had, and her gaining a ability to care thst she didn't realize she had. Was really moving.
Lawrence is amazing here, you can feel exactly whats happening, she's the maneater, shes the one where moneys the matter, its hitting her character right where it should, shes going through the conflicted gamut of emotions that she both shouldn't be doing this but should be for his sake and hers, that she is slightly falling for the guy but can't. All without saying anything. That's quality acting right there. Andrew is great too, the song is pitch perfect and he plays his part so well where he appears to completely miss songs warning of a broken heart applied to his current situation.
this movie was everything I was never expecting it to be and to make me feel, jlaw again bringing power, I just feel like the movie revolves around this song. What is completely mind blowing
Just watched this scene, and I was blown away by this scene since I didn't expect a great singing voice to come from this guy. This will always be one of the most memorable scenes in movie history for me

the way she reacts to his piano playing and the specific lyrics to the song speaks volumes…
Ironically. she was going to tell the restaurant what a magnificent lover he was , he turned it around by singing what she was really like lol. Food for thought 😁
When he started singing i was wow this sounds so familiar and than it hit me. I would have never thought a ballad version would be so great, then again i didn't thought the same from a-ha take on me on deadpool 2 almost got me crying.
I thought the same thing! I loove the unplugged version of take on me from deadpool 2! Also when I played the game The Last of Us 2 there was a similar acoustic version in there which was great too :P Some songs really get new meaning when performed in different ways I think ☺
It’s embarrassing how many times I’ve watched this scene, never cared much for the song before, but after seeing this show I want to buy a piano and learn this song! Love it! Pretty good movie too, heartfelt and funny, plus Lawrence is an amazing actress ❤️
OBSESSED with this cut. I adore him so much and this song is so incredibly appropriate for the film on multiple levels. I've been listening to this on repeat for weeks.
He does such a great job too. His voice pairs so well with a piano
Best memorable scene in recent movie history let alone a romantic film.
I totally was blow away by how vulnerable this song was, this version really hits differently.
I was stunned to find myself teary eyed after this scene. It’s been a while since a scene in a teen movie made me feel this way.
It didn’t only elevated the song, it sent it through the roof.
I keep rewinding this scene because it’s just phenomenal
Dare I say... This version is better than the original
IT IS
They are SO different. Love them both. Can’t say I like this one more though. Original is so good
OK that's pushing it lol. Hall & Oates ate that
It has its moments
Agree 100000%
Never thought I'd ever be the type to replay a movie scene an unhealthy number of times, but I guess this scene alone is the exception for me.. Its without a doubt this is one of the best comedy movies I've seen this year, and the casting was perfect.. The emotional performances in this scene were pure perfection from both Jennifer and Andrew, definitely now on my list of fav movies.. I love it!!!
Yea I enjoyed it. I always thought it was... kind of gift and curse they don't end up together in the end ah well
Yeah they kinda left us wanting more, but it sure was worth the watch
This movie was SO MUCH MORE than I thought going in. It's rare for me to be so pleasantly surprised.
There are so many popular songs out there that if you just slow them down, they become so much more meaningful and emotional. It's like the scene later in the movie when he gulps down his wine and his father says "savor it son, savor it" Slow down the music and savor it. Slow down your life and savor it.
He did really well playing and singing. He should do more.
He does do more. He played Evan Hansen on Broadway.
She'll only come out at night
The lean and hungry type
Nothing is new
I've seen her here before
Watching and waiting
Ooh, she's sitting with you
But her eyes are on the door
So many have paid to see
What you think you're getting for free
The woman is wild
A she-cat tamed by the purr of a jaguar
Money's the matter
If you're in it for love
You ain't gonna get too far
(Oh, here she comes)
Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up
(Oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater
(Oh, here she comes)
Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up
(Oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater
I wouldn't if I were you
I know what she can do
She's deadly, man
She could really rip your world apart
Mind over matter
Ooh, the beauty is there
But a beast is in the heart
(Oh, here she comes)
Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up
(Oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater
(Oh, here she comes)
Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up
(Oh, here she comes)
She's a maneater
Ooh
(Oh, here she comes) here she comes
Watch out, boy, she'll chew you up
(Whoa, here she comes) (watch out)
She's a maneater
(Oh, here she comes) (she's a maneater)
Ooh, she'll chew you up
(Oh, here she comes) here she comes
She's a maneater
(Oh, here she comes) (watch out)
She'll only come out at night, ooh
(Oh, here she comes) here she comes
She's a maneater
(Oh, here she comes) (she's a maneater)
The woman is wild, woo
(Oh, here she comes) here she comes
Watch out, boy, watch out, boy
(Oh, here she comes)
Oh, watch out, watch out, watch out, watch out
(Oh, here she comes) (watch out) yeah, yeah
She's a maneater
(Oh, here she comes) (she's a maneater)
She's watching and waiting, ooh
(Oh, here she comes)
Oh, she's a maneater
This scene makes the movie for me. Andrew’s character is phenomenal singing this song. He reminds me of pets sounds Brian Wilson he absolutely crushes this song with the grace of a legend and Jennifer’s acting in this scene shows why she’s so talented. She conveys so much emotion with her eyes. Love astonishment guilt because she knows that in this moment she loves andrew’s character she’s astonished by his talent but she also knows she lied to him and she feels bad about it. It’s absolutely a masterclass of acting and singing in one scene. This scene is THE BEST scene in the entire movie.
This movie was really great but this is my favorite scene.
Bringing the song back from earlier in the movie, the gesture, and he's got a nice voice.
He is a broadway star! He played Evan in Dear Evan Hansen if I remember
I remember watching this movie during a long flight....this scene literally gave me goosebumps ❤ the expressions both of them have...the sudden realisation of the depth he has in her face ....his transition from a shy introverted boy to an expressive talented pianist and how well the lyrics synced with the entire movie ....this scene is actually a masterpiece 😍
i haven’t seen a scene this good in a while, absolutely incredible!
As a father of naive teenage boys this hits hard
This scene was really wonderful one of the best movie of the year.
this scene will never get old
it's that kind of scene that is already classic without even having ended
I cried laughing like 3 times before this part. And then almost legit cried watching this scene. What a great movie.
I think this scene is kind of magic. The kind of scene we really don’t get in films anymore
this is one of the best scenes in cinema I've seen and the rendition and singing is beautiful and unexpected
I love the dynamic this song brings into the air. The lyrics suit them so well. With that beautiful voice and JLaw’s amazing acting, this scene is breathtakingly romantic.
Bro this man killed the cover. Came back for its pure excellence.
Some renditions of songs make you realize just how amazing they are. I probably heard this song thousands of times growing up but this version is my favorite.
I felt the same, the original is ok but this version has become one of my favourites, wonder if hall and oates have ever played this song as a ballad 🤔
Can’t imagine they’d do any better than this though, Andrew nailed it! Was curious if it was actually him playing the piano, guess it is bc I watched him do a cover of an Elton John tune, talented dude to be sure!
Daryl Hall had a web series called Live from Daryl’s House where he jammed with all types of musicians. He sang his hits in various genres and tempos, and the show made me have even more respect for him as a musician. One favorite episode was Rob Thomas from Matchbox Twenty singing “Kiss on My List” as a slowed-down love song. Wonderful. Testament to what great songwriters Hall and Oates were.
I was bored last night and looking for something to watch on Netflix and I came across this movie and I started not to watch it figuring it's for the young folks but I went ahead and watched it anyway. It turned out to be a great movie and this scene was so chill and awesome at the same time. I'm sure Hall & Oates would be proud of his rendition...very well performed. 🎹🙂👍
Just watched this last night and its amazing. Couldn't get this song out of my head. Love the casts.
Fantastic comedy-drama, and that scene very moving. So great seeing Jennifer Lawrence in a decent movie, it's been 11 years. She's amazing in this.
One of the better covers I’ve heard in a long time
A scene like this only comes around once in decade. Just jaw-dropping. 👌
I just watched this last night. Shocking thoughtful and funny. The first half has some great comedy. Then pulls a switcharoo and tugs on your feel strings. It was way better than I expected.
Ok so I will be honest, I thought because it being a comedy, it would start and he would suck. What instead happened is I watched one of the most surprisingly powerful and emotional scenes I've ever seen. When he hammers in the notes, it is so intense. Well done with this scene.
Gives me chills every time
This was the moment that put the movie over the top for me, and made me go, “yeah, I need to buy the Blu-Ray of this one…”
I loved this scene.
This scene completely surprised me, he's so good! I was thinking he should pick up music instead of going to princeton. That's not to mention the emotion conveyed between them. Excellent.
He's a pretty big Broadway star already. Was the lead in Dear Evan Hanson.
I love how as the song went on he became more confident and started really singing and you could tell how much better he got as the song progressed.
And at the same time she was becoming less confident, second guessing her own actions and the effect they were having on him. Idk I haven’t seen the movie, but that’s what I got from it. Great acting and writing!
@mockingbird993 that's exactly what happens in the movie.
Great observation 👍
What a genius song choice and emotionally palpable and gorgeous arrangement...this scene was perfection. I've watched this over and over. I really liked the movie too, but this song...
scene gave me chills thru my whole body first time seeing this. mans got them vocals
Everyone talks about the bash at the beach. But this is the scene we keep replaying.
Two incredible actors. Jlaw's nervous gulp and especially her little look off to the side, like eyes are on her, like she's been revealed and for the very first time in a very long time, she feels just a smidge abashed.
Love the nervous looks over the shoulder, if that doesn’t scream anyone who has wanted to perform without the confidence… I don’t know what would. I feel that one
I’m in love with this rendition. I can listen to it over and over and over again.
i did not expect that he can sing, at first i thought he’s bad at it and makes an awkward situation out of it
I love how her facial expression isn't overly done, but just so authentic, as is his along with this performance.
Both are incredible in this movie, but that scene….WOW!!! Best rendition of Maneater that I’ve ever heard.
i can’t stop watching it, it’s a piece of art
This was my favorite part of the movie!! Can’t stop playing
This is now probably my favorite scene in a movie ever. They both were amazing. ❤
This scene is so vital to the movie and is enacted in sm depth because not only does he remember the song they talked about on their first date, but it is also the song that he mentions gave him nightmares when he was a kid. This scene metaphorically and realistically represents him overcoming that nightmare and also his fear of playing in public. Essentially getting a little more out there, which is so sweet and admirable. Such a great movie. 🥲
This was just amazing, so well done. To see two characters changed before your eyes in a matter of minutes. He gaining confidence he didn't realize he had, and her gaining a ability to care thst she didn't realize she had. Was really moving.
Guy's voice and performance, with how the confidence and cadence builds, had me swooning by the end.
Lawrence is amazing here, you can feel exactly whats happening, she's the maneater, shes the one where moneys the matter, its hitting her character right where it should, shes going through the conflicted gamut of emotions that she both shouldn't be doing this but should be for his sake and hers, that she is slightly falling for the guy but can't. All without saying anything. That's quality acting right there. Andrew is great too, the song is pitch perfect and he plays his part so well where he appears to completely miss songs warning of a broken heart applied to his current situation.
This scene played AWHOLE lot better than I anticipated. Brilliant scene, great movie. (Also a HUGE Hall & Oates Fan, he killed this).
Can’t believe i actually started rooting for them after this scene. 😃
this movie was everything I was never expecting it to be and to make me feel, jlaw again bringing power, I just feel like the movie revolves around this song. What is completely mind blowing
I’ve probably watched this video about ten times. Great version . Great performance 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I love how the audience slowly turns to listen with smiles of appreciation and awe.
I love this scene, the rendition is better then the original, the emotion in his voice and in her eyes when she realizes the song is about her.
He gives this song a whole different meaning and vibe by the way he sings it
Such a powerful scene. Where she realizes this is her, and that he sees her but still loves her.
I teared up watching this scene 😢
I really like the dramatic note after "you aint gonna get too far" to drive it home
Just watched this scene, and I was blown away by this scene since I didn't expect a great singing voice to come from this guy. This will always be one of the most memorable scenes in movie history for me
