well. this appears to be, to date, the best performance i have seen from what i think is the quintessential song from one of my very favourite musicals. so, you know... good work. :)
Our school is doing this musical and we started the choreography to this song today, but after seeing this, changes are definitely going to be made. :D
The way that this Bobby commands the stage is just incredible. Say what you will, but the undefinable concept known as stage presence certainly exists. Exhibit A: This Video.
I'm looking for the sheet music of the Broadway recording version that Hunter Foster sang. I have the original score but many or the embellishments are quite different. Does anyone here know where I could find it?
A lot of the songs in this show are meant to have a similar style and "make fun" of certain shows. This song is awesome cuz it has a little gospel, sit down Ur rockin the boat... And he brings a little bit of wicked in at the end
is this one of the songs that is meant to be a parody??? if so what is it from???? does anyone know the rest of the songs that are parodies? like the act one finale is les mis, and west side story?? can't find this ANYWHERE online -.-

That Bobby... Watch out Hunter Foster. Absoutley perfect. He'll go far.. I mean no words
this still gives me goosebumps every time i hear it - ben's got such a powerful voice
my absolute favorite song in the show!!! And the high note at the end, OMG!!! AWESOME!!!!!
This seriously just made my day! Best performance I've seen of this song, and that includes the Broadway cast. Just fantastic!
O_O WOW! This guy can SING! That note at the end was awesome! I loved it!
Oh my GOLLY those ending notes at the FREEDOM part were AMAZING!
Wow! Amazing! I've never seen the musical, but I know the songs. The actor playing Bobby just blew my mind!
