So was anyone gonna tell me that Gaten was a trained singer and broadway performer or was I just supposed to stumble across this on RUclips
There's actually a video from 7 years ago with him and Natalie Weiss!
ya! that's why they have him sing in the most recent season of Stranger Things and he was Gavroche on Broadway in Les Mis! :)
Rightt
SAMEEEEEE
It's pretty much common knowledge but hey we can't all know everything at the same time as the rest of the world right?
He really said ✨I'm talented✨
Facts 😂
This made me laugh too much😂
without saying
😂😂
I mean he isn’t wrong 🥹
Thanks for liking my comment
Oh yes, my favorite harmonized anxiety attack
Oof. Heh.
mood
hell yeah
Facts
😭😭
It’s so refreshing hearing teen roles actually sung by a teen
He’s almost twenty now lol
@@zaneiswaycoolerthanyou so still nine TEEN
@@zaneiswaycoolerthanyou he was 17 when they make this video
George did good :c
@@bunnyloverplayz1371 who is george.
He would make a PERFECT Michael if they made a movie. Not just with his singing, but he actually looks a little bit how Michael is described in the book!!!
Literally
Help now I'm picturing joe keery as the squip-
@@marialopes9730 thats kinda perfect-
Yess
THEERS A BOOK!??!?!?!
I BETTER HEAR GATEN SINGING MORE IN STRANGER THINGS
Last episode of season three bro
That episode was just golden. Susie killed me, she was amazing! And i mean never ending story was amazing tbh
@@grahamschatz5474 that’s why they said more
@@grahamschatz5474 that wasn't enough
@@grahamschatz5474 we said more
when youre a theatre kid and ST stan so youre favorite cast members are gaten caleb and sadie
and suzie, our matilda. we also got annie, gavroche. who does caleb play?
i just figured he was in lion king
Yeah Caleb was in Lion King as young Simba.
Yes- their amazing
What about Sadie? Where did she perform?
Oh my gosh. I didn’t realize he was so GOOD
He is A born singer and actor
Yeah. He was in Les Mis on Broadway before Stranger Things 🙃
I like your profile pic of Kirishima
I love your kirishima pfp tho 😅
Love the pfp pic 😅
his riffs are so clean!! and his vibrato and projection is just pure perfection!!
1.5K likes and no replies lemme fix that 😝

1:37 I’ve never heard anyone vocally slip on a staircase before, and I’m loving it. 😳
HAHAHA THAT IS THE FUNNIEST WAY TO DESCRIBE THAT RIFF
@@alexwalleman2470 HAHAHA! Thank you.❤️
WAIT YOURE RIGHT
VOCALLY SLIP DOWN THE STAIRS
Wait omg why tf is that so accurate
Bruh his vibrato and riffs are so fast I legit thought my video was on a faster speed
Some was a bit fast for me, like I wish he held some of it longer, but it’s still amazing sounding. I think it’s the overall tempo imo
There’s a video of him singing a condensed version of More Than Survive and he’s really good, I strongly recommend that you check it out :)
Why did they autotune him when he sang "Neverending story", when he sings this good!
It does go with the 80s vibe tho
I don't think he is autotuned, he actually sings out of tune a couple of times, if something he is pitch-corrected
@@sora7176 They mean in his performance of Neverending story, not this video
I think it's just for the 80s vibe
IS THAT KAI FROM HOLLOW
his vibrato is so niceeee
It was so cleannnnn😙🤌🏻🤌🏻
Yes you can here the shifts so distinctly!
YEEEES
I was looking for the comments about this and the runs!
It’s like the perfect amount
The lower notes actually surprised me more than the high ones. I feel like I expected the high ones to be amazing, but the low ones were so clear, and that I wasn’t expecting
He's not a high tenor so of course they're clear
He's more of a baritenor/dramatic tenor
well he does have a lower range and you can even hear him strain on the high note in this cover, he keeps getting cast in tenor roles for his appearance but i'd love to see him take a baritone role for once
he does have a BEAUTIFUL falsetto tho his voice gives me butterflies every time 😵💫
@@dezzydream fr, I wouldn't call him a low baritone but either a high bari or a baritenor.
He'd be great as anthony from Sweeney todd
@@gamer5101 i'd commit arson if it meant he gets cast in sweeny todd oh my god
His acting when he started the whole “knock, knock, knock, knock” sequence was IMMACULATE
People are saying "wow he's actually good" when he was in Les Mis, where you have to be GOOD
exactly smh
Omg was he gavroche?
@@daddyissues5014 yep! he was adorable
@@madisonfriedman2012 ooooooh it sounds so cute :0 i need the slime tutorial
@@daddyissues5014 Omg LMAOOO 😆
You can really tell how much training he's had, the technique is solid base that is gonna get better and better the older he gets
Exactly my thoughts
He does everything to a T from the original song, the breaks, the exact key, how it's pronounced, timing and the emotion that it's originally sung in, that makes it obvious he's been professionally trained- somebody who was absolutely obsessed with that song and 'Be more chill' (the musical it's from).
Yes that is True
@@tasha1955 The one thing he missed was the growl on the "GOD, he's such a loser!"
@@yoshifan33 wow you guys really pay attention to the details lol
Is anyone else scrolling through the comments while Gaten sings 😂
I'm doing that right now .-.
Oh most definitely
No
Don't call me out
How’d you know 😂🤣😂
Yes, I know he’s been on Broadway and is a trained singer, but this is simply insane. His voice is just angelic, and I can’t get over it.
I cant stop listening to this. Everything is perfect:
Vibrato
Dynamics
Tone
Semi quaver runs
Pure voice quality 👌
Just here to say I relate to your whole profile
Guys... if he plays Micheal it would be so perfect. He looks like how Micheal is described in the book!
I love ur pfp
I have very... low... blood sugar...
BUSINESS CALLS AND IM UP TO MY AsS IN $HIT- **leg kick** WHAT IS THIS BUSINESS
MARKETS ARE CRASHING AND I'M AT THE EDGE OF MY WITS! I JUST CAN'T TAKE IT!
i think he’d be a better jeremy tbh
as a stranger things fan AND be more chill fan i n e e d e d this
I don't care that i'm late for this comment YAAAAAAAS
me tooooooooo
Same my life has been completed
Sameee
This has changed my life! This song (and musical) is AMAZING!! and so is Gaten (and ST)
I love this so much and don’t get me wrong, but George Salazar’s “I wanna dance with somebody” is still absolute gold.
I want a video of him singing the whole song
FRRRRR I CRY WHEN I HEAR HIM SING
@@raspberryswirly3476 he sings on the soundtrack-
Also if you’re talking about Gaten, this is the full song
@@yourmother__ I think they mean they want a whole song of George singing I Wanna Dance With Somebody
@@nicoletrudell2065 ah. Well, can’t blame ‘em. Sounds great.
Lyrics:
I am hanging in the bathroom at the biggest party of the fall
I could stay right here or disappear
And nobody'd even notice at all
I'm a creeper in a bathroom 'cause my buddy kinda left me alone
But I'd rather fake pee than stand awkwardly
Or pretend to check a text on my phone
Everything felt fine
When I was half of a pair
And through no fault of mine
There's no other half there
Now I'm just
Michael in the bathroom
Michael in the bathroom at a party
Forget how long its been
I'm just Michael in the bathroom
Michael in the bathroom at a party
No, you can't come in
I'm waiting it out 'til it's time to leave
And picking at grout as I softly grieve
I'm just
Michael who you don't know
Michael flying solo
Michael in the bathroom by himself
All by himself
I am hiding
But he's out there
Just ignoring all our history
Memories get erased
And I'll get replaced
With a newer cooler version of me
And I hear a drunk girl
Singing along to Whitney through the door
"I wanna dance with somebody!"
And my feelings sink
Cause it makes me think
Now there's no one to make fun of drunk girls with anymore
Now it's just
Michael in the bathroom
Michael in the bathroom at a party
I half regret the beers
Michael in the bathroom
Michael in the bathroom at a party
As I choke back the tears
I'll wait as long as I need
'Til my face is dry
Or I'll just blame it on weed
Or something in my eye
I'm just Michael
Who you don't know
Michael flyin' solo
Michael in the bathroom by himself
Knock, knock, knock, knock
They're gonna start to shout soon
Knock, knock, knock, knock
Ah, hell yeah, I'll be out soon
Knock, knock, knock, knock
It sucks he left me here alone
Knock, knock, knock, knock
Here in this teenage battle-zone
Clang, clang, clang, clang
I feel the pressure blowing up
Bang, bang, bang, bang
My big mistake was showing up
Splash, splash, splash, splash
I throw some water in my face
And I am in a better place
I go to open up the door
But I can't hear knocking
Anymore
And I can't help but yearn
For a different time
And then I look in the mirror
And the present is clear
And there's no denying
I'm just
At a party
Is there a sadder sight?
Than mhm
Michael in the bathroom at a party
This is a heinous night
I wish I stayed at home instead
Watching cable porn
Or wish I offed myself instead
Wish I was never born
I'm just Michael
Who's a loner
So he must be a stoner
Rides a PT Cruiser
God, he's such a loser
Michael flying solo
Who you think that you know
Michael in the bathroom by himself
All by himself
All by himself
When all you know about me
Is my name
Awesome party
I'm so glad I came
Thx and I bet this took forever
Thank you sm
I wish I could copy and paste
His voice represents a kid who has no friends, voicing out his insecurities, having never experienced social interaction at all. Its perfect for this song. Gaten has always been so special to me out of all the stranger things kids. From his name, to his acting, to his goofy and cute little smile, and now, HIS SINGING. Gaten seriously is so perfect ❤️❤️
I like the Gaten's voice too, it's so beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤. It melt me❤❤
PETITION TO MAKE GATEN MICHAEL IF THEY MAKE A BE MORE CHILL MOVIE
NO
edit: lemme explain, George Salazar (OG Michael) still has more power when singing this song, and tbh he'd be good for Jeremy or Rich
@@mikaylaaa026 I’m all for casting OBC in film adaptations, but with as many movie musicals in the works I doubt it would happen for a few years and even BMC can’t justify casting a 40 year old as a teenager 😂😭
@@mikaylaaa026 let’s not pull another Ben Platt in the DEH movie, og talent doesn’t mean we shouldn’t make room for newer and younger talent, especially in younger roles like Michael. I really don’t wanna see another middle aged man in the role of a teenager, as great as that man might’ve been originating that role. It just feels like a vanity project at that point :/
@@oliviajacques741 Completely valid tbh! After watching the DEH movie, my opinions on having the og cast play them again has changed. Ben Platt playing 16 year old Evan felt REALLY awkward considering how almost everyone else looked like normal teenagers and he looked like a thirty year old. Now, all I want for a BMC movie/cast is to have a cast that has a theatrical background/ very inclined to musical theatre. What I noticed in the DEH movie is that Ben Platt's acting felt very broadway and the other's weren't matching the broadway feeling.
@@mikaylaaa026 Ben platt was probably the best Evan but everyone hated him in deh movie, so I don’t think it’s a good idea to cast George even though his voice may be stronger right now
THIS IS SO PERFECT OMG PLEASE SOMEONE GET HIM IN THE SHOW
this aged well
@@maddiecore6347 He's in Dear Evan Hansen not Be More Chill lol
@@tjwolf9997 They mean the Musical.
@@pumpkin-soup he’s going to be joining the Broadway cast of Dear Evan Hansen on July 19th
@AnderyGordonOfficial damn ya didn’t have to say it 3 times
Is it weird that I knew his from Les Mis before Stranger Things? Does anyone remember that video of him and Joshua?
No, that's not weird. I knew him before also. I only started wacthing ST because he was in it.
Honestly that video was incredible, one of my favourite duets ever
No I watched the video of him and Joshua way before I started stranger things
No I saw him live in Les mis, and was so exited when I watched Stranger Things for the first time to see him
@@Time-lord-jedi i do🥰
That vocal riff at 1:00 is insane.
Most beautiful anxiety attack I’ve ever heard. His voice is absolutely incredible!!!❤️❤️❤️
Why did nobody tell me this lad could sing?
He was a child actor on Broadway...
He was in Les Mis in 2014
He has been on broadway all his life
If I’m remembering correctly a lot of the stranger things cast came from broadway - Sadie was in Annie, Gaten was in a bunch of things, Caleb was in the Lion King, and most of the others were in music in some sort of way.
i-
Okay but they are making an Evan Hansen film and if Ben ages out, I think he’d be a great Evan Hansen
I agree but I think they’ve already making a movie and casted it.
@Marie McKenna I hadn’t thought of that but it’s definitely a possibility. I wonder who would replace him. Maybe Jordan Fisher?
OMG WHERE CAN I WATCH THIS???!!!
@@_maddie_makes_music It’s not out yet. It’s currently pre-production because of COVID-19.
What do you mean of ben ages out. Ben has already aged out
He's been my top fan pick for Michael in a Be More Chill Movie for a while and this cemented that.
Id love to see that
i feel like it's unhealthy to watch this a couple times everyday but that won't stop me from continuing to do it
#addicting
heheheh 69th like
@@sunnalyn hahaaha love this
FR THOOO
Do you need help?
The actual sound mixing sounds a little bit like it was recorded in a bathroom (just a little) but the fact that this was enjoyable nonetheless proves just how impressive you're singing is especially since judgment is usually harsher when a familiar song is being sung by a different person
Yes it’s absolutely stunning honestly
George Saladbar is like the best Michael to ever exist, but hell i gotta say he gets up on the Michael list
George S a l a d b a r
@@cheeselord8451 Lmao
*saladbar*
*s a l a d b a r ?*
Yes, s a l a d b a r
I’m shocked. I knew he had a band and musical theatre background, but… Dude. I’m in awe
HIS VIBRATOS ARE ON POINT OMG I LOVE THEM SM!!!!!! And the riffs are so amazing too! 🫶🏼
I'm LITERALLY obsessed with his vibrato and riffs. I used to have my ringtone as that one clip of him singing Go The Distance on a cliff, what a king
If they make a BMC movie, they should cast him. He's talented AND the right age (no shade to George Salzar tho he's a legend)
IF YOU WANNA SEE MORE GATEN SINGING BMC, HE SANG DURING THE AFTER SHOW HANG ONE NIGHT!! IF YOU SEARCH HIS NAME AND BE MORE CHILL MORE THAN SURVIVE, THATS WHAT HE SANG LIVE 🤖💊❤️❤️❤️
I saw that!! It was amazing
you're an angel for this information, thank you!!
He clearly has a great range but I’m mostly impressed by his amazing vibrato!
3 years and his performance still gives me goosebumps and literal whiplash. it’s just… incredible, for lack of a better word.
a gen z theatre star who sings with vibrato? my soul is restored
Gaten did so well! (As usual)
His tone and spacing is amazing !!!!!!! 😱 I didn’t know he sang ! He’s sooo good !
And the riffs!!!
i just found this a few hours ago and i’ve watched it more times than i’d like to admit...
Same, found it literally 30 minutes ago and I can't stop listening.
@@victorsuarez3 Same but it was a week ago.
SAME
I’ve definitely listened to this too many times
I have been wtaching it for hours
I know he’s been on Broadway but I just can’t believe how beautiful this cover is. I’m not the first person to say this but he’d make such a good Michael.
The way he acted so well as Michael brought me to tears. Imagine him singing this as Dustin after Lucas ditches him in season four. Just typing that make me soo sad. Aww :(
Wait no- 😭
Now I want stranger things the musical
*Yes.*
ruclips.net/video/ep2d2WzdmVI/видео.html 😎
stranger sings babey!
YESYEYSYSEZ
THIS WAS LITERALLY AMAZING OH MY GOD
Gaten: Michael in the bathroom by himself!!!!
Me: well I’m glad no one was with him. cuz ya know...
Ok I’ll leave now
I’ll be your first like my guy I thought it was funny 😌✨🍬🍡
I’m shook. I’ve never heard him singing, but I figured he could because he was on Broadway. I just didn’t expect this voice. I love that he so connected to his chest voice and his belt is really great. I can tell he’s trained or getting trained geez what a talent!
Gaten’s singing voice always amazes me every time
I hear it ❤ and the first time I heard him sing was
Stranger Things. I didn’t know he did Broadway when
he was 9 years old.
Gaten do be flexing! 😂
Gaten! This was absolutley incredible! Your vocals are amazing!
wow the "picking at grout while i softly grieve" into the next "I'm just michael in the bathroom" waso SO GOOD
Omg his singing voice is flawless
his dynamic control is very impressive !! his smile always makes me smile.
Oh my gosh. I'm... speechless. My second (only to Tom Holland) favorite actor and my favorite song of all time. Oh boy. Wow. Oh my gosh. I'm sorry what?
This is the first I've heard him sing since his voice changed. He's great.
Gaten be slaying!!! 😍😍😍😍 I love how passionate and committed he is on being Michael for a moment on this song 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
I didn’t expect him to be an amazing singer too!!!!!!!!? His voice is phenomenal and so enjoyable to listen to!!!
Yeah he did Broadway before stranger things
he did broadway and also sung in season 3 of stranger things.... never ending story
how many times have you watched this:
Me: *YES*
hOw cAn hE gEt aNy mOrE pErFeCt
And now I really want a Be More Chill Revival with him playing Micheal
OMG I DON'T REALLY WATCH STRANGER THINGS BUT GATEN! HIS VOICEEEEEE IS SO BEAUTIFUL YASSSSS 💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💜💜💜💛💜💜💛💜💜💜💛💛💛💜💜💜💜💜💜💜
NO CAUSE I FELL IN LOVE WITH HIS VOICE!!!!
shaking sobbing crying sliding down a wall his voice >>>
This song suits him well!! He should play as Michael in BMC
His voice is so angelic! And that control!! Holy smokes dude!! Hope he gets a singing role sometime in the future once Stranger Things is over!! 👏👏
Please this is literally my favorite song from this musical and he's so perfect for it wtf-
My favorite actor singing my favorite character's song-
I'm literally so happy-
I listen to this on repeat for HOURS, love Gaten
I now officially declare this Gaten’s audition to play Michael in Be More Chill
bro i just got chills this is amazing
Wow this is impressive, he sings this nearly as well as George Salazar. Getting excited to see him in DEH.
Nearly lol George voice doesn’t really scream broadway they shouldn’t have casted him for such an important piece tbh
WOAAAAAHH THE VIBRATO... THE RUNS...
MY HEART!! I NEVER NEW GATEN COULD SING?? AND THE FACT THIS SONG RELATES SO MUCH TO ME AND THAT GATEN IN MY FAVORITE IN STRANGER THINGS 💗💗❤️😫✨💀💅🤚🏼
THIS IS ONE LONG ASS SONG
I applaud so much, he is so talented, the voice, the dynamics, the notes, and the subtle acting 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Don't know why theres only 500 views like??? 😕😕
When he does that “oh!” Before “I’m just Michael...” AGHHHH so good!
2:48
I'm speechless.... GATEN can sing so freaking well!!!
My favorite actor from Stranger Things singing my favorite song from BMC.
My life is complete.
I could relate to Michael, this one time my best friend invited me to a party where I literally knew nobody and then she freaking ditched me
I really hope he gets to be Micheal fr
i wanna see how he would be now that he's a bit older and with more emotion in his voice + acting out the scene... I can just imagine the chills I would get
Why did I not know he was a fricking PERFORNER!!!!!!! He's amazing!
HIS VOICE GAVE ME UNCONTROLLABLE CHILLS
I can not stop watching this! His little face 🥹🫶🏻Dusty Bun!
theatre kid and stranger things stan ✌️
SAME ✌️
SAME
That moment when your fav musical and your fav actor from your fav show come together for this beautiful solo: *Fangirling intensifies*
Also:
Me know wanting Finn Wolfhard to sing more than survive: *Fanart drawing intensifies*
the WAY he is PITCH PERFECT, beyond talented🥺
coming back to this 2 yrs later and it still brings me to tears. his voice is so beautiful.
It's hard to even come close to Salazar but incredibly he has
its insane
I COULD RECOGNIZE THAT REHEARSCORE SOUNDTRACK FROM ANYWHERE
There’s nothing as satisfying as seeing 2 fandoms converge
His voice sounds different then expected and I'm scared. He's really good though and I don't know how to feel about it
Anyone else looking at comments while listening to Gaten sing
Yes
i know i’m late to the party but OMG his voice is unbelievable i simply don’t know how to function😭😭😭😭i’m in love with him
This is, honest to god, the best voice I’ve ever heard put to this song.
that moment when you're a BMC fan, a Micheal Stan, a Stranger Things fan and a Dustin Stan...... lets just say this is ✨PERFECT✨
AGREED
