    Fans worldwide fell head over heels for Ben Platt during his Tony® Award-winning turn in the title role of Dear Evan Hansen and on-screen in films such as the Pitch Perfect franchise. As the vocalist, actor, and performer sang life into a host of nuanced and fascinating characters, audiences embraced his voice wholeheartedly. By dusting off the piano, picking up a pen, and singing his own truth straight from the heart, he shared another side of himself as a solo artist.
    Ben achieved superstar status as Evan Hansen in Dear Evan Hansen, originating the lead role. The New York Times lauded him as a “breakout star,” and he went on to receive the 2017 Tony® Award for “Best Actor in a Musical.” Other honors included “Best Musical Theater Album” at the 2018 GRAMMY® Awards for the Original Broadway Cast Recording of Dear Evan Hansen, “Outstanding Musical Performance in a Daytime Program” at the Daytime EMMY® Awards for a cast performance of “You Will Be Found” on The Today Show, and more. Not to mention, he joined forces with Hamilton mastermind Lin-Manuel Miranda to craft a mash-up of “The Story of Tonight” and “You Will Be Found,” benefiting the “March for Our Lives” anti-gun violence movement.
    Signed to Atlantic Records by Chairman and C.E.O. Craig Kallman and President of A&R Pete Ganbarg, he explored his formative influences, ranging from timeless singer-songwriters such as Joni Mitchell and Carole King to legendary crooners like Donny Hathaway, Ray Charles, and Stevie Wonder. As a result, the music delivers confessional lyricism by way of soulful intimacy as part of one cohesive narrative on his 2019 full-length debut, Sing To Me Instead. The 12-track album, which was primarily produced by Jenn Decilveo, chronicles the highs and lows of a transformative relationship. Showcasing his story, Ben penned several songs solo and co-wrote the remainder of material alongside the likes of Ben Abraham, Eg White, Nate Cyphert, Michael Pollack, and more.

When I listen to his incredible album ‘Sing To Me Instead’ while on the bike at PF I cry during a few of the songs; especially ‘Older’ and ‘Run Away’. Ben’s voice just touches your heart in every way.

      - The UFOs have always been the FALLEN ANGELS. Fallen angels and the devil is not a myth.
      - there is no planets, there is only plane knows as EARTH.
      - there is no cosmos, there is HELL - EARTH - WATERS - THE KINGDOM OF GOD.
      - there is no evolution, there is the CREATIONS OF GOD.
      - there is no humans being only carnal being, there is HUMANS - being created after the image of GOD. (Human being = SPIRIT BEING).

      The truth we don`t like:
      - we are sinners who are called to repentance and to born again, Luke 13:5 , John 3:7
      - we are called back home with renewed minds and hearts, yet many shall reject the calling and perish into the torment.
      - we live under demonic power, the evil spirits in high places: Ephesians 6:12
      - there is a risk to be a lukewarm and a cast away. Revelation 3:15 , Luke 9:25
      - the final A.I shall be humans themselves, Spirits in-prisoned into the machine, wishing to die, yet no death for them. Revelation 9:6
      - as time pass by, there be more and more betrayals, among families:
      ¤ son against his father, father against his son,
      ¤ daughter against her mother, mother against her daughter,
      ¤ mother in law against daughter in law
      ……Micah 7:6 , Matthew 10:35 ,

      - we are deceived 24/7/365 through TV programs /news) and through wicked people.
      - we live in a BABYLON from which all are called to come out. Revelation 18:4

      - all worldly holidays are pagan.
      - fame and riches come only through the deal with the devil.
      - PRIDE keeps us blind and deaf. Mark 8:18

    Last week I had an MRI scan. I was incredibly scared and my whole body was shaking. I am claustrophobic and was anxious. The loud noises were awful. It was terrible. I started crying during the scan. But then I quietly began singing Ben's songs and I could calm down. Most of the time singing helps me to relax. My heart beat went down and I stopped crying. Ben you are my hero! I don't know what exactly happened to me in the MRI, I think I just had panic, but your music helped me. Thank you so much!!!

      No he wasn't pushing any numbers he was trying to get a dial tone. When it comes to land lines you need to have a dial tone to then start putting in the phone number. So he was hanging up over and over trying to get a dial tone but he never got one because well phone Booth's really aren't a thing anymore so they're usually not connected to the land line anymore.

      Funny thing is, I found his moves super awkward as well but couldn't take my eyes off them. Lol. I've watched this too many times to admit and I find the awkward moves to be captivating. I've never loved awkward more, lol. Keep dancing Benji, keep dancing. Lol

    How did I not know Ben Platt? God be blessed for The Politician, who introduced me to this awesome singer.
    Edit.: Mom, I'm famous.

    can we all just appreciate that Ben Platt doesn't care what people might think of him breaking in and dancing in a store.
