I just lost a best friend of over 17 years. I’ll never forget when we used to sing through the entire soundtrack of Wicked when it came out - costumes included. She even crafted me a green cape so that this then-closeted, awkward teen could live his full Elphaba fantasy in her parent’s living room. She is always going to be the G(a)linda who left a handprint on my heart forever. 💚
I recently lost a good friend who was like the brother I never had. Your rendition of "For Good" perfectly suits my memory of Wally. I'm tearing up as I write this. Thanks to all three of you for putting into music my sentiments. Hey Big Bro... I'll just say so long for now.
I've heard it said That people come into our lives for a reason Bringing something we must learn And we are led To those who help us most to grow If we let them And we help them in return Well, I don't know if I believe that's true But I know I'm who I am today Because I knew you... Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes a sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you I have been changed for good It well may be That we will never meet again In this lifetime So let me say before we part So much of me Is made of what I learned from you You'll be with me Like a handprint on my heart And now whatever way our stories end I know you have re-written mine By being my friend... Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In a distant wood Who can say if I've been changed for the better? But because I knew you Because I knew you I have been changed for good And just to clear the air I ask forgiveness For the things I've done, you blame me for But then, I guess we know There's blame to share And none of it seems to matter anymore Like a comet pulled from orbit As it passes the sun Like a stream that meets a boulder Halfway through the wood Like a ship blown from its mooring By a wind off the sea Like a seed dropped by a skybird In the wood (Harmony over Glinda) Who can say if I've been Changed for the better? I do believe I have been Changed for the better And because I knew you... Because I knew you... Because I knew you... I have been changed for good...
Wow guys, excellent stuff. I've been looking for a good male cover of this song for inspiration to make a solo male version for my wife on our 10th anniversary. Thank you for putting this out there for me to find!
The third male version I’ve heard and watched today. This song is so good, and this is yet another superb version. Wet eyes are the order of the day. Thank you gentlemen x

Wonderful voices, but there doesn't seem to be much chemistry between you two to "lift the lyrics off the page". It sort of looks like two music students who had a homework assignment and recorded a duet for voice class. But I didn't sense a real "brotherly bond" here-- which is the premise of the song that makes it work. Still, excellent voices. btw: THE ACCOMPANIST IS GREAT! 👏🏾
I do like this song for realssonships be a part of makes me cry every much i can not feel my happyness any more i hope my peatens never see my happyness this gone
Is there tension between these 2 guys in real life? I sense that in terms of their chemistry or lack thereof. It's like Daniel doesn't even acknowledge Darian Sanders in this very intimate song. I almost feel that Darian Sanders is yearning for Daniel to look at him. Anyone else notice this? I would love to hear from these singers.

Feeling lonely for the caring friends who helped me to be here still, with memories to hold me in these challenging times. 😷🥰😊
What I loved about this cover is that it's not overproduced. Best male cover!

Very nice, hope we can be friends
That denied fist bump though!
I've heard it said
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn
And we are led
To those who help us most to grow
If we let them
And we help them in return
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you...
Like a comet pulled from orbit
As it passes a sun
Like a stream that meets a boulder
Halfway through the wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good
It well may be
That we will never meet again
In this lifetime
So let me say before we part
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you
You'll be with me
Like a handprint on my heart
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have re-written mine
By being my friend...
Like a ship blown from its mooring
By a wind off the sea
Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In a distant wood
Who can say if I've been changed for the better?
But because I knew you
Because I knew you
I have been changed for good
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done, you blame me for
But then, I guess we know
There's blame to share
And none of it seems to matter anymore

Halfway through the wood
Like a ship blown from its mooring

Like a seed dropped by a skybird
In the wood (Harmony over Glinda)
Who can say if I've been
Changed for the better?
I do believe I have been
Changed for the better
And because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
Because I knew you...
I have been changed for good...
The singer on the right has such a lovely unique tone. I can imagine his voice in Disney cartoons.
Best male cover I've heard thus far. Defying Gravity please! :)
Thank you! If you wouldn't mind to share, it would be greatly appreciated!
Where'd you get the arrangement for this?
Wow guys, excellent stuff. I've been looking for a good male cover of this song for inspiration to make a solo male version for my wife on our 10th anniversary. Thank you for putting this out there for me to find!
Very beautiful voices, and the pianist is awesome
Well sung! And great job Daniel on the piano. So expressive! Thanks for sharing guys.
The third male version I’ve heard and watched today. This song is so good, and this is yet another superb version. Wet eyes are the order of the day. Thank you gentlemen x
omg.... i your vocal tones are so calming.
My most favourite male cover... I lost a friend recently from a heart attack...it was unexpected so we’re still processing and grieving...
The chorus at my sister's school sang this for graduation and it was so good, but also so sad, and so happy all at the same time.
this is seriously perfect. great job guys!
wow i just found this performance and it's awesome, what a great case study for students learning to sing in this style!
Simply beautiful
i've been listening to this cover for thousand times... Too beautiful !❤
This is such a beautiful version. Look, Ma, no auto-tune!
So, so inspired version. Thanks for that guys
possibly the best version ever... i cried from stat to end... just wonderful... thank u x
I was looking for a male cover for this, this is my go to. Great all around.

That was FANTASTIC guys! Wow.
Fabulous!! Best cover I've ever seen.
Thank you! Please share if you'd like!
Gotta give props to you guys, you did great! (Especially on those high notes)
This is great!! Your piano skills are really good as well, will you do a piano instrumental of this as well?
Beautiful guys!
Ohhhhh thats amazing. Great job gentlemen!
I love your rendition of this song!
Goosebumps galore
Absolutely stunning performance!!
[Glinda:]
I've heard it said,
That people come into our lives for a reason
Bringing something we must learn.
And we are led to those
Who help us most to grow if we let them.
And we help them in return.
Well, I don't know if I believe that's true
But I know I'm who I am today
Because I knew you.
Like a comet pulled from orbit as it passes the sun,
Like a stream that meets a boulder halfway through the wood.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you
I have been changed for good.
[Elphaba:]
It well may be
That we will never meet again in this lifetime.
So, let me say before we part:
So much of me
Is made of what I learned from you.
You'll be with me like a handprint on my heart.
And now whatever way our stories end
I know you have rewritten mine by being my friend.
Like a ship blown from its mooring by a wind off the sea.
Like a seed dropped by a sky bird in a distant wood.
Who can say if I've been changed for the better
But because I knew you...
[Glinda:]
Because I knew you...
[Both:]
I have been changed for good.
[Elphaba:]
And just to clear the air
I ask forgiveness
For the things I've done,
You blame me for.
[Glinda:]
But then I guess,
We know there's blame to share.
[Both:]
And none of it seems to matter anymore.
Like a comet pulled from orbit
(Like a ship blown from its mooring)
As it passes the sun.
(By a wind off the sea)
Like a stream that meets a boulder
(Like a seed dropped by a bird)
Halfway through the wood.
(In the wood)
Who can say if I've been changed for the better.
I do believe I have been changed for the better.
[Glinda:]
And because I knew you...
[Elphaba:]
Because I knew you...
[Both:]
Because I knew you
I have been changed...
For good.
I'm in love with both voices

I really enjoyed that performance thank you

Love it so much!!! ♥️

amazing
Wow! Just, wow!! ❤️❤️❤️
Keep singing. Love it.
beautiful!
Great version well done lads
Omg love ur cover ❤️😍
Well done gentlemen. 👏🏽
Beautiful
Is this arrangement (sheet music) available anywhere?
Why doesn't Daniel look at Darian (and vice versa) while they sing?? It's supposed to be two friends making an emotional declaration TO each other!
So emotional... love it
Was the key changed to accommodate a male voice or is it in the original key?
William Millikan it’s not the original key.
I think it’s higher
The key is raised but the guys are singing on an octave lower.
Just...wow. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I do like this song for realssonships be a part of makes me cry every much i can not feel my happyness any more i hope my peatens never see my happyness this gone
Oh shit the guy on the right hit the high note!! I thought it was left guy
Nice work Boys
Love it 😍!!!!!!!
Well Done ...Bravo !!

Exactly. Great singing, but no chemistry.
@@markmh835 They should be singing the song to each other and looking at each other.
너무 좋다.....
this was excellent. what venue or church was this.? looks familiar
what key is this in?
also, you guys were awesome
Diego Magaña I think it's in G, could be A flat maybe
Very nice version
This was amazing well performed
Love it!
God bless you !
Do you have a music version I can sing to? same key. Fan here!
Bravo!👍
Terrific!
Parabéns, lindo!
o bichinho no vácuo no final haha
May I know what key you used for the instrumental?
Really late, but for anyone who’s still curious, I think it’s in G
Beautiful! Does anyone know the key this is in?
