So i have been binge watching Cynthia Erivo videos on YouTube and I am an emotional wreck lol

[torixxx]

Cynthia Erivo is like the Beyonce of musical theatre

[hunnerdayEDT]

Cynthia Erivo needs to be the voice of a princess in a Disney animated musical. Fight Me!

[taramoon]

There has never been a Cynthia Erivo performance where I DON'T get chills. She is absolutely incredible.

[doctorfuller]

I love how cynthia has such respect for them that she's like i will absolutely not perform your music if it isn't at it's full potential

[brianaprevillon]

I feel highly offended because this is the first time I’ve seen this.

[kristinberchak]

The fact that she motioned for everyone to keep going at 5:12, to have the true performance and art continue just a little longer, to feel that magic in the performance and the collective beauty in everyone there was truly magical. A celebration of humanity, if you will:)

[IjeomaThePlantMama]

I'm obsessed with that finger spin. The universal music sign of "I'm not done yet, gimme a little more!"

[lovinrayne]

Did she just turn A broadway song into a gospel one? Yesh she did!! Love it!!!!

[senghenkgoh]

3 things. that last minute decision to repeat. That hidden handsignal round her back at 5.39 to make sure the down beat comes right as she's done. Her commitment to getting into character the moment she was onstage, and minimising the intro shenanigans. So in control. Such a leader, yet a listener to her own impulses.

[KyleOgilvie]

This is amazing. Not only because Cynthia is perfect but also because Pasek and Paul are so into it: like they love it so much and their passion for their music is so real it's mesmerizing.

[kenziepeacock]

justin aggressively head-banging while still playing beautifully is my new aesthetic.

[pershardowens]

When she gave the Repeat motion, I knew she was about to go in.

[panchish]

i need a studio recording of this where the choir's singing just FLOODS IN AND BLENDS SO BEAUTIFULLY WITH CYNTHIA'S VOICE THIS IS JUST AMAZING

[christianjewell]

Shout out to that choir for definitely holding their own next to the perfect being that is Cynthia Erivo!!

[MichaelB-dmlc]

4:40 I LOVE how pasek leans back with her as she hits those notes

[samonecjones]

She is legit directing the band AND the choir AT THE SAME DAMN TIME!!!! I can't...

[aaronmhowe]

My favorite part of this video is towards the end when Cynthia is feeling like she wants to repeat some measures when they not rehearsed it that way. You can tell because she is gesturing to the band to make the repeat, giving more time and room to grow the intensity and energy. And that, my friends, is the beautiful art that can only happen in live performance. We must find a way back.

[adamrusmisell]

Okay so not only is it Dear Evan Hansen song but it's Cynthia Erivo. I've died and gone to heaven.

We love a queen who asks for what she needs. She was right too.
