[trizzzz]

the fact that Ben sounds 10x better live is just incredible. his talent is just-
IMMACULATE

[worldsgayest]

the way he sounds even better and healthier than he ever did on his broadway performances....he's such an astonishing singer

[cindilu]

IDGAF what anyone thinks about the film or his casting, this guy can SING. That's one of the most impressive live vocal performances I've ever seen. Flawless.

[AlexAttrillOfficial]

I’m sorry but I think that’s one of the best live male vocal performances I’ve seen. Strong, emotive, powerful, not flat, not pitchy, incredible dynamics.

[jhg]

No one will ever do Evan like Ben Platt did. His voice is truly one of a kind

[sherlockwatson]

I love that he’s probably sung this 1000 times and he still puts SO much emotion into it, like it’s the first time. He’s incredible

[olivianotrodrigo]

the control ben has over his voice is literally insane

[Kmng]

Despite his age now, I don't think anyone can play Evan Hansen better than him. He's perfect for the role, I'm happy he's reprising his role just for the movie 👍

[lesley-annhoey]

He just IS Evan Hansen, there’s no one who has done it like him. The talent, the emotion. He is just incredible.

[MadilynBailey]

You're an absolute star.... standing there watching on stage took me to another world. inspiring... this is just the beginning...

[Penthess]

The fact that he managed to properly sing Alana's and Jared's part despite a huge octave/tone difference just shows how talented Ben is when it comes to his vocal skills and transitions

[lofttm]

1:49 thats next level talent. Having to do the key change with a vocal lead in before the band changes keys is freaking tough.

[thattheaterkid]

Ben literally can get me through my worst times and bring me right back to happiness just by opening his mouth….HES a literal angel

[harleyrenee]

He truly made this his own performance and did not hold back. This wasn’t Evan, this was Ben. If he wasn’t playing Evan in the movie I wouldn’t watch it, regardless of the age gap. There have been many similar and worse age gaps in other shows. Kaitlyn is literally like 3 years younger than him and they guy who played Jared is the same age so I don’t see how there’s such a problem with only him, whether his dad produced it or not.

[aaronselander]

This has to be the best live male vocal I've ever heard. Incredible!

[adelynnperalta]

I can’t believe people are mad about Ben’s age for the casting of the Dear Evan Hansen movie. Theatre and Movie are two different things. But, Ben’s portrayal as Evan, will always have a special place in my heart. He does an amazing job for acting and singing. No matter what, Ben will always be the most amazing Evan. 💙

[zm]

I've never heard Ben sing Alana, Jared and Zoe's parts before.
My only possible reaction: 😮 DAMN!!!

[perfumeluver]

And this is why they didn't recast. Nobody plays or sings Evan better than Ben Platt.

[speabi]

I’m glad they’re using him for the movie, nobody could play Evan as well as he can,

[Auric-BraiNerd]

How... How can one man have SO MANY different iterations of the same song and each one differs in delivery, emotion and artistic choices and YET none are any less perfect. This is sheer performative brilliance. EGOT EGOT EGOT
