This song actually adds depth to Aladdin's character. The actual diamond in the rough who is painfully self deprecating & aware of his flaws. Much better than the "cool" street rat we get in the final cut.
Favorite song from the musical. Wish it was in the movie so more people could know it. It is so relatable and real for growing boys, so heartfelt and real. I love it so much.
i was so lucky seeing and hearing this talent perfom live on stage! Matthew Croke is an amazing singer, thank you for making my 30th birthday magical. Still getting goosebumps while listening to this song!
Spectacular performance from Matthew! Well done 👍🏻! Hope they’ll bring this again in London. Enjoyed the performance last time in Prince Edward Theatre in Soho. Well done to all the cast! Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Proud of your boy I'll make you proud of your boy Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma You're in for a pleasant surprise I've wasted time I've wasted me So say I'm slow for my age A late bloomer, Okay, I agree That I've been one rotten kid Some son, some pride and some joy But I'll get over these lousin' up Messin' up, screwin' up times You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part Someone's gonna make good Cross his stupid heart Make good and finally make you Proud of your boy Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer You won't get a fight here, no ma'am Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good But that couldn't be all that I am Water flows under the bridge Let it pass, let it go There's no good reason that you should believe me Not yet, I know, but Someday and soon I'll make you proud of your boy Though I can't make myself taller Or smarter or handsome or wise I'll do my best, what else can I do ? Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you Mom, I will try to Try hard to make you Proud of your boy
bruh I'm the 100th comment lol (if you're asking why I'm here, 1. I'm based in London, and 2. music class.) But seriously he has a freaking amazing voice. Bloody hell.
As a vocal coach, I'd only say to him "be less conscious of how you sound and more about how you feel and express that more in the work." Great voice, it's there, now just make us know how you feel!! just a bit more. Example: "since I wasn't born perfect, like Dad or you", I'd like to hear more of his feeling "less than" in the way you chose to sing that phrase...
those last lyrics were funny..."I wasn't born perfect like dad or you". Uhhhhhh your dad was a negligent father who abandoned his family pursued a career as a professional thief and gang leader; and your mom supported and colluded to his activities. But yeah I get it-he's an orphan with a good heart and loves and dotes over his parents that he never met-well not the father yet.
WTH! He works with children at his performing arts school in Sheffield. He’s a very genuine person and if your judging him because of his appearance then you should go elsewhere

"Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you." No matter who's singing that part always gives me feels!

Jamie_Jewel That line makes me cry every time!
ME TOO ❤️❤️😭😭😭
A old lady can be screaming that like a llama and still gets me in the soul.
Yesss
His voice gives goosebumps. Just like in the theatre. His performance of this song was just brilliant.
This song actually adds depth to Aladdin's character. The actual diamond in the rough who is painfully self deprecating & aware of his flaws. Much better than the "cool" street rat we get in the final cut.
gorgeous. really hoping to hear a london cast recording!
ukulili won't happen
This is the London one. I've seen Aladdin the Musical in London and this is the London cast recording 👍👍👍
I LOVE YOUR CHANNELLLLL!!!!!!
I'm glad they released this version! It brings back so many memories from seeing the show!
Came back to this after arising the current U.K. tour of Aladdin. Matthew Croke’s version still hits differently!
How did this magical number not reach "the final cut"? Love that song ❤ Alan Menken
A must watch play.. we watched it last night... Spectacular,!!!!
日本から聴いてます本当に素敵。ありがとう。
London cast getting fancy with the clips lol ! Loved it
Favorite song from the musical. Wish it was in the movie so more people could know it. It is so relatable and real for growing boys, so heartfelt and real. I love it so much.
I can't even listen to this song without crying. I don't know how professional musicians pull these off without bursting into tears.
i was so lucky seeing and hearing this talent perfom live on stage! Matthew Croke is an amazing singer, thank you for making my 30th birthday magical. Still getting goosebumps while listening to this song!
Yesssss
Wow. He has a beautiful voice! I love this song too.

Best Aladdin ever - hands down!
Spectacular performance from Matthew! Well done 👍🏻! Hope they’ll bring this again in London. Enjoyed the performance last time in Prince Edward Theatre in Soho. Well done to all the cast! Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I don't know why I am crying.... beautiful song!

This is an outstanding musical performance. One of the very best talents of his generation.
Matthew is simply amazing 👏
Proud of your boy
I'll make you proud of your boy
Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma
You're in for a pleasant surprise
I've wasted time
I've wasted me
So say I'm slow for my age
A late bloomer, Okay, I agree
That I've been one rotten kid
Some son, some pride and some joy
But I'll get over these lousin' up
Messin' up, screwin' up times
You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part
Someone's gonna make good
Cross his stupid heart
Make good and finally make you
Proud of your boy
Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer
You won't get a fight here, no ma'am
Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good
But that couldn't be all that I am
Water flows under the bridge
Let it pass, let it go
There's no good reason that you should believe me
Not yet, I know, but
Someday and soon
I'll make you proud of your boy
Though I can't make myself taller
Or smarter or handsome or wise
I'll do my best, what else can I do ?
Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you
Mom, I will try to
Try hard to make you
Proud of your boy
shrewii I know all the lyrics too as I’ve done Aladdin broadway for a yr 6 production

Beautiful!
いつか見に行きたい…
This song is really beautiful
So beautiful! 😍 My dream is to see "Aladdin" on stage. But I need at least one more year to make enough money to travel to London...
bruh I'm the 100th comment lol (if you're asking why I'm here, 1. I'm based in London, and 2. music class.) But seriously he has a freaking amazing voice. Bloody hell.
Matt is a treasure!

I am a male western chauvinist who refuses to apologize for the creation of the modern world
UHURU!

he has a resemblance to Charlie Cox of Daredevil.
very throaty...
Gav sent me here.

GAVIN McINNES brought me here
those last lyrics were funny..."I wasn't born perfect like dad or you". Uhhhhhh your dad was a negligent father who abandoned his family pursued a career as a professional thief and gang leader; and your mom supported and colluded to his activities. But yeah I get it-he's an orphan with a good heart and loves and dotes over his parents that he never met-well not the father yet.
Matthew’s Mum was single ( No dad)
REPARATIONS NOW!
#PROUDBOYS
Dont let him approach little kids... I dont trust him.
WTH! He works with children at his performing arts school in Sheffield. He’s a very genuine person and if your judging him because of his appearance then you should go elsewhere
?
Shut up baby

Fog Horn
He's better than the former Alladin
