I know all the comments are about Andrew but I just wanted to share my Jonathan Larson appreciation. What a dreamer. He had so much passion and life, changed the entire musical theatre game and he never got to see his own dreams come true... he didn't even get to watch the live performance of Rent. I think that's the saddest thing that can happen to an artist, to work towards something your whole life and never see it turn into the amazing thing it becomes.

You're dead, what can you do? What can you do? What can you do? Clear the runway Make another pass Try one more hook Before you're out of gas Friends are getting fatter Hairs on you head are getting thinner Feel like a clean up batter On a team that ain't a winner Don't freak out, don't strike out Can't fight it, just like city hall At least you're not alone Your friends are there too They're singing, "Happy birthday" You just wish you could run away Who cares about a birthday? But 30/90, hey Can't you be optimistic? You're no longer eons of you Turn 30, 1990 Voom! You're passes What can you do? What can you do? What can you do? Peter Pan and tinker bell Which way to never never land? Emerald city's gone to hell Since the wizard blew off passed the map On the streets you hear the voices Lost children, crocodiles But you're not into Making choices, wicked witches Poppy fields, or men behind the curtains Tiger lilies, ruby slippers Clock is ticking, that's for certain They're singing, "Happy birthday" I just wish it all were a dream It feels much more like dooms day What 30/90 seems I'm dying for a twister I don't see a rainbow, do you? Turn 30 into 90 Look into my hands now What the ball has passed I want the spoils, but not too fast The world is falling It's now or never land Why can't I stay till The forever end? 30/90 (5) What can I do?

Never until i turned 16 i got into it and I'm 21 today and i never knew a jon larson, but his work stuck to an 8 year old kid and made that kid sing at 16 and cry at 21, i just- his work is still largely regarded and acknowledged in 2021 and he never got to see it. It breaks my heart, as an artist and as a young person.

Done watching tick tick boom. There's something in the movie that makes me realize that always follow your dreams or what makes you happy, live your life to the fullest!. All of our hardships, disappointment and frustration will all be worth it in the end. You just gotta believe you can make it:)
I can’t believe how much Andrew looks like him and also how well he matches a lot of his inflections and enunciations.
dudei know love the movie
@@societiii It’s incredible. I’m hoping Andrew at least gets an Oscar nod.
Yeah right? They are so equal
@@petyobg3330 They look too similar, damnn
I will fully never believe in the Academy Awards again if he doesn’t minimum get a nom.
Andrew really understand what he was supposed to do. He captured everything perfectly
I think the mark of a great actor is someone who is like a chameleon, really immersing themselves into the role. When I was watching Tick, Tick... Boom!, I was really thinking Jonathan Larson. Not once did I think Peter Parker.
@@saiberunato you should watch more of Andy, he's phenomenal!!
Here after Andrew’s cover was released…what an unbelievable talented gone too soon
Same here 😌.
Same here ;(
Same here
Same
Same.
I'd give anything to let him know that he made it. Jonathan deserved so much more and was so close to get it. This story makes me think a lot about how unfair life is
How did he pass if you dont mind me asking?
@@talont9934 Aortic aneurysm. He died the night before the off-Broadway premiere of Rent.
@@thatgirl6158 it was the day of the first previews of Rent
it’s crazy how he passed right before what would’ve been the “holy shit i did it” moment of his life. the day before his dreams came true.
idk if you’re religious or not, but i like to believe that wherever he is, he’s seen how successful his shows were
I was holding back tears after learning about him because of the netflix movie. He finally made it and died a day before the first show man that really hit me.
It’s so tragic and makes me sos as
So sad*
The fact that he died the morning of the FIRST preview. Not the day after, the day of. So ridiculously tragic. He really felt as though he was running out of time.
@@oscararagon6648 Nope the worst is the fact that it was a preventable death since he was misdiagnosed.
Thanks for the spoiler...
I just finished watching tik tik boom on Netflix, I never knew anything about Jonathan Larson, not even that he wrote rent, but I'm so glad I came across the film, it was amazing. Had me in tears.
It’s a sad movie
Same, My Brother sent Me a snippet about him this morning, We both have marfan's, so does My 22y/o Son and he released his first album this week. I really enjoyed the movie and cried like a baby at the end 😭
Have you seen rent? Highly recommend if you haven’t. Yo I can see where all his inspiration came from after watching this 🥺
same!!! really looking forward seeing rent rn
@@emk1989 I watched it straight after tick, tick...Boom, loved it also! Have listened to the songs over and over since.
the person who filmed this has no idea what a huge favour they was doing us all. The amount of times I've re-watched this video as a John Larson and a musical theatre fan in general is uncountable.
According to Lin, it was Vicky Lecox (last name probably wrong spelling) who shot almost all of the Tick Tick Boom footages that we have right now. She's Larson's friend who shot and financed some of the musicals he made
Andrew Garfield deserves an Oscar Award!
Yeah, he deserves the Oscar nomination
And the Oscar in question
YEAH
Como mínimo
THATS WHAT IM SAYING
god he was so talented. can't imagine the amazing works we'd have if he were still here. _thank you jonathan larson_
@Vi Robertson это божественно
I can't believe this exists. I never thought I would get a glimpse of my greatest inspiration performing his work live and on video...

I'm your 1K-th like. This is the second time I'm 1K-th like on a comment in a "Tick Tick Boom" related video. I guess I'm browsing through a lot of them after watching the movie xD
@@ytminis love to see it, gonna watch it later today, can't wait to see it 🤍
Now they have made an amazing movie about your greatest inspiration ❤️
@@ytminis don’t rly care
Holy shit... Andrew really portrayed him perfectly. It's so tragic Jon died so soon, just imagine what other works of genius he could have brought into the world.
I know all the comments are about Andrew but I just wanted to share my Jonathan Larson appreciation. What a dreamer. He had so much passion and life, changed the entire musical theatre game and he never got to see his own dreams come true... he didn't even get to watch the live performance of Rent. I think that's the saddest thing that can happen to an artist, to work towards something your whole life and never see it turn into the amazing thing it becomes.
Believe in Yourself!
It's a shame the audio is crap, this is a good song.
It was the 90s what you expectin💀
@@tuenhanvo9310 okay but you can't use that emoji on this video
@@tuenhanvo9310 it's still a shame
andrew garfield’s version is fantastic. if you want to hear it more clearly i suggest his
No that's the 80s Bozo
Holy, Andrew garfield really nailed his character and singing.
Character yes, singing no. Garfield sang in his own way, didn’t try too hard to sound like Larson. Which I applaud, I think it was a great portrayal.
@@MetalizedButt i think andrew did extremely well on the singing and i think that he sounded a lot like jon, especially seeing that he learned to sing in just about a year
@@alrighty.aphrotide I feel like you can’t really learn to sing if you don’t have a good voice to begin with. He’s naturally talented and you can hear a real vibrato
@@JD-ht7yw i totally agree and i meant learning to sing as more like training his voice
Jonathan Larson joined an exclusive club of artists who died before their genius was discovered, he sits at a table with the likes of Johannes Vermeer, Herman Melville, Emily Dickinson, Vincent Van Gogh, Franz Kafka, Vivian Maier & Stieg Larsson among others. Thank you for your gifts to the world and RIP 👏🏼
Melville died at like 70 and had several periods of widespread commercial success within his life...
@@baileymorton4116 he had some early success but nothing like the recognition he had after his death, not sure what age of death has to do with anything...
You forgot Jeff Buckley who died two years after Jonathan
@@chrisplante1976 I did say among others lol
@MrGriff1361 You did! I just wanted to add Jeff Buckley to your post! Thank you my friend.
The fact that he never got to see how iconic and life-changing Rent became will always break my heart. Thank you for everything Jon
Words can't express how emotional this makes me. He's one of my favorite composers and I spend so much time thinking about all the other great things he could have written.
Same
I’m so sad he’s gone
One of the biggest “what ifs” what a tragic ending. To think if only that hospital did it’s job he’d still be here with us today
It’s amazing how much Andrew Garfield looks like him.
i know basically the whole comment section is saying the same thing, but dang andrew garfield did such a good job portraying him. from the mannerism, the looks the everything is just so perfect. man gone way too soon, imagine what larson could’ve done if he had more time. also before people start saying his vocals aren’t the best, imagine singing a song you made to a crowd while playing an intricate piano track at the same time. he was amazing
Also, the audio quality is bad, mainly because is from the 90’s. Jonathan Larson was a genius, not worthy for the people who just say his voice isn’t the best from a extract of a 18 minutes video.
I’ll be turning 30 next year and I can understand the emotion in this song. I really hope my kids will feel more accomplished in their lives. Jonathan Larson’s accomplishments are beyond amazing, it’s so unfortunate he didn’t love to see the impact of what he’s created. Such is life. ❤️
We all feel the same at 29... ppl need to stop focusing on the number and JUST LIVE. I didn't understand that until I was approaching 40, and I feel like I'm more confident & appreciate the moments more as I get older.... when you realise your accomplishments are more of a quest for self discovery and evolving than accumulating awards on a wall
@@yads5678 nicely said
I felt the same at 29, but once I hit 30, I realized that it wasn't a big deal. However, I'm moving from my early 30s to my mid 30s, so I'm going through another crisis, which will end the moment I actually reach my birthday.
I’m still sobbing after watching Tick Tick Boom on Netflix. I just don’t understand why this cruel life had to take this GENIUS away from this world so soon! Ugh. AND even more cruel, for him to die on the same day RENT was due to start! He had so much to give. I’m sobbing now so I cannot even imagine how his family felt, then. Thank you Lin Manuel for directing this brilliant film..celebrating this genius’s life perfectly. Just like you reminded us how great and genius Alexander Hamilton was….thank you, for this story!! Sobbing. Still. ❤️❤️😩🎤
As they saying goes you either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become a villian, some of the best people I have known have died at really young ages. Best dude I ever knew died this year a few days after his 21st birthday and also around new years christmas time
Imagine BEING IN THIS ROOM AND HAVING NO IDEA YOURE SEEING A FUCKING LEGENDDDDD.
Thank God this was FINALLY made into a movie!!!
U could thank Lin Manuel Miranda 4 making it happen 😃

Watched Tick tick..Boom. What a movie, what a showcase of Jonathan's talent. Gone so soon, but man, the positive impact he's had and keeps having on people's lives is incredibly beautiful. Isn't that what life is about?
Dude u prolly didn’t know his name b4 watching the movie…. So what impact are you talking about?

RIP and long live Jonathan Larson (February 4, 1960 - January 25, 1996), aged 35 You will always be remembered as a legend.
Si
You can see the sheer passion, in both his movements and his voice. Arguably one of the most talented people to ever live.
I'm turning 30 in 5 days, watched this movie two days ago, knowing nothing about Jonathan Larson or his musicals. Now this songs sticks with me forever 😆
You are now 30 happy birthday
@@anubisizzy thanks 😄
30/21
He sings each lyric amazingly, never sounding tired at all, look at his passion when playing
When I saw the thumbnail, I didn't think it was actually going to be Jonathan singing. As soon as I saw him I thought, "OMFG IM GOING TO CRY."
and this is how my prejudices about musicals come undone, i was in ignorance and now i can see
I can't believe how well Andrew portrayed him. from his head motions/facial expressions/hand movements, etc. Andrew just put his heart and soul into this. its a tragedy jonathan was gone so soon.
Look how passionate he was, sadly he passed away so early!! :(( I hope he knows how amazing he was.
He is the most talented person ever. I just wish we could have seen what he would have become
hyperbole.
Probably the next Sondheim.
Why u have no videos on your channel grace
@@quaimaboylan5175 bruh
@@quaimaboylan5175 mate
I am old enough to remember the mania over Rent. As a New Yorker I remember reading about Larson didn't think about it too much. Andrew's performance had me sobbing like a baby. Two incredibly prodigious talents.
I wish we could go back in time and show people form history their movies or shows
Just finished watching Tick tick.. Boom! On netflix. I'm crying. What a talent. Gone too soon
I never knew Jonathan Larson before Tick Tick Boom and now after the movie, seeing how John was so talented and the fact that he KNEW it and that’s why he put everything into his talent and tried and the fact that we didn’t really know him while he was alive and he only got the recognition he deserved only after his death make me think about life and how the world works… I have been stubborn about writing (even if my writing are bad or even when no one believes) just as how he was passionate about singing and composing… I don’t know. I guess I live to write.
Andrew protrayed him so well. He was so talented!
Jonathan is among the GOAT's of the musical world. Though I've known about him after watching tick tick boom, I still feel that he was greater than that.
We'll never forget you johnny
Saddened by the loss of such a talent at an early age, the film played by Gardfield is heartbreaking, a tremendous performance.
Thank you Jonathan, yesterday you'd have turned 62, but the time given to you was not enough. I don't know how many other great things you could have made if you only had some more time, but I know for sure that with the quantity given to you you inspire everyone who knows your story to choose wisly about what to do with his time. Thanks for teaching us how to not give up if we are doing what we love, even if we fail. Thank you Jonathan Larson and keep shining as the star you were and still are💫❤
I feel like the songs in Tick Tick Boom and Rent are perfect for Broadway and solo work. Jonathan Larson could’ve been the next Billy Joel
Omg, Jonathan was explosive! In this live clip JL really lived the 30/90 story, The emotion is so raw and deep to his very core. It's really this powerful when the writer performs. There's a fire in his belly and also that hunger. There's a different level of realness and sincerity which can't be duplicated. 🔥 Gone too soon. RIP, bravo and thank you Jonathan!
Just saw tick tick boom on it’s limited release and omg this hits so different jonathon left such a legacy for theater and story telling I’m already recommending the film to all of my friends it’s just incredible I wished at my theater that there were more people like it’s crazy how good the film was and like how much it paid tribute to jonathon
Out of curiosity, what legacy of storytelling did he leave? His sole finished musical has an above-average score, but the book leaves a lot to be desired. It’s a great rough draft… but it was still a rough draft.
@@ShowtuneSampler I think it’s the way he tackled controversial topics like homophobia and other social issues. His storytelling was able to connect with younger audiences and especially with the pop-rock genre of the musical
mandatory visit before the tick tick boom movie
The fact that Andrew or the movie didn't win an Oscar is a crime. Everything about it was a masterpiece
This man was a gift and he was taken away before he could see the true gift he was. Life is incredibly unfair. In his heart he knew he would reach people, he knew, just sad he didn’t get to see how big his impact would be.
This should and will never get a dislike
It had 10 dislikes YYYY Y DISLIKE THIS?!!
Yep
WHY THE HELL WOULD PPL DISLIKE THIS??????
He’s a legend and has written masterpieces. I hope he can see his work from heaven
Thank You Jonathan Larson
Watched Tick Tick Boom a couple days ago. Cannot believe how incredibly talented this man was. Hurts my heart that he finally made it but didn't live to see it. May he rest in peace.
I honestly thought that the music on the movie were made by lin manuel miranda, and thought that he capture Jonathan larson sound perfectly, but then i found out that it is all Jonathan music, sound and lyrics afterall, what a genius musician he was
it hurts my heart that he never knew what his art was going to mean for so many today, that his art was being appreciated and understood and cherished.
Jonathan Larson did so much for me.Rent is the reason I came out and I wish I could thank this dude
Just watched tick tick boom on Netflix. I did not know anything about Jonathan before this. Seems like an incredible talent.
id give my fucking life just so he’d know he’s famous now and everything and he did it
Man he really pounded on those keys! Like most composers lol
This was already so damn good. Just imagine the quality of his live performances
Stop the clock Take time out Time to regroup Before you loose the bout Face the thrill Back it up Time to refocus Before they lap it up Year's are getting shorter The lines on your face are getting longer Feel like you're treading water But the riptide's getting stronger Don't panic, don't jump ship Can't fight it, like taxes At least it happens Only once in your life They're singing, "Happy birthday" You just wanna lay down and cry Not just another birthday, it's 30/90 Why can't you stay 29 Hell, you still feel like you're 22 Turn 30 in the 90 Bang! You're dead, what can you do? What can you do? What can you do? Clear the runway Make another pass Try one more hook Before you're out of gas Friends are getting fatter Hairs on you head are getting thinner Feel like a clean up batter On a team that ain't a winner Don't freak out, don't strike out Can't fight it, just like city hall At least you're not alone Your friends are there too They're singing, "Happy birthday" You just wish you could run away Who cares about a birthday? But 30/90, hey Can't you be optimistic? You're no longer eons of you Turn 30, 1990 Voom! You're passes What can you do? What can you do? What can you do? Peter Pan and tinker bell Which way to never never land? Emerald city's gone to hell Since the wizard blew off passed the map On the streets you hear the voices Lost children, crocodiles But you're not into Making choices, wicked witches Poppy fields, or men behind the curtains Tiger lilies, ruby slippers Clock is ticking, that's for certain They're singing, "Happy birthday" I just wish it all were a dream It feels much more like dooms day What 30/90 seems I'm dying for a twister I don't see a rainbow, do you? Turn 30 into 90 Look into my hands now What the ball has passed I want the spoils, but not too fast The world is falling It's now or never land Why can't I stay till The forever end? 30/90 (5) What can I do? What can I do?
It’s “f*ck 30/90” not “what 30/90”
.
Jon is a beautiful genius. And Andrew plays him beautifully.
Tick tick boom was good. Didn't know anything about Jonathan Larson but his story hits pretty hard. Even if you don't relate to it
Andrew deserves an Oscar
Ok this is probably my favorite video of all time
A true fan :)
He was one of the best composers, if anyone disagrees I beg you you to look at the complexity of some of his music
this is amazing. I wanted to say that I wish there was a better live video but then I remember that this is 1990.
Andrew capturó su esencia súper bien. Me encantaría decirle a Jonathan que lo logró, y ahora muchos más conocerán su historia ❤️
The Andrew Garfield version was a tad bit sped up, and I like that it really was Andrew singing without any voiceovers or adlibs. Sounds great.
Such a good feel movie, Andrew acts amazing in this movie and I really liked it
anyone with a dream that feels like the world is telling them to give up on can find hope from Jon’s story. Gosh I wish he had lived longer. seems like a precious soul :((
I wonder how many times Andrew Garfield watched this exact KZhead video when studying Johnathan Larson
i can't help but wonder what musicals would he write if he had more time
I think that's Roger Bart backing.... that's amazing!!!
OMG IT IS!!!
It’s sad when you realize how hard Jonathan was working from 1985 straight to 1995 and then he died unfortunately and during that entire time he was producing songs creating hit musicals and just pushing himself and I love that he was able to do so much in just 10 years but again I feel like he didn’t have time to really take time and rest and chill and appreciate what he was doing because he died when he was so young 35 and he died the day before his musical rent first showed it was all so sad rip Jonathan you have made some a awesome musicals and you really did your best 🥺🥺🥺🥺
He would have loved what his music has become. May he rest in peace 😢
When I first saw the trailer for Tick, Tick, Boom! a few months back, I was giddy to say the least. Rent has been one of my favourite musicals for most of my life, and I was a big fan of Jonathan Larson. I knew about the story of Tick, Tick, Boom! I just didn't know the music. It’s amazing how Andrew nailed who Jonathan was! I can see Oscar buzz with the soundtrack. Just think what this world would musically have if he hadn't passed away 😢 Thank you Jonathan Larson!
u made it sir... literally a gem who was born and left us so soon...u still inspire this generation
Jonathan Larson is such a huge inspiration to me, and it’s so awesome that this video is here so I can see him in action. He was truly talented.
Hope we have this video in the credits of Tick Tick Boom... Thanks John, from a fellow Marf who you inspired to pursue greatness in spite of all the pains of our condition. Love from Japan!
Commenting before everyone flocks here after the tick tick boom movie musical releases. Jonathan’s legacy will live on. Thank you for your music.
