Without a doubt, Santa Fe is my favorite song. Not only does it tell the story of Jack Kelley, but it tells a story of hope. It carries a message, telling its audience to follow their dreams. And it's so powerful, and I just relate to the words so much. Jeremy is most definitely one of my biggest heroes; with hard work, anyone can follow their dreams. One day, I hope I'll be able to thank him for it.
Good god, what a performance! So many nuanced touches, from his facial expressions to the mid-chuckle...very attuned to the emotion of the song and what the character is feeling.
Jeremy Jordan has the most beautiful singing voice that I've ever heard. His singing voice has so much power and so much energy. I love when he hits the high notes because it sounds so powerful. He sings like breathing for the soul.
Jeremy is truly gifted. His incredibly nuanced acting combined with his voice is incredible. Loved hearing more about him at the beginning as well, seems like a really humble guy.
they say folks is dyin' to get here. Me, I'm dyin' to get away, to a little town out west that's spankin' new. And while I ain't never been there, I can see it clear as day. If you want, I bet'cha you could see it, too. Close your eyes... Come with me, Where it's clean and green and pretty. And they went and made a city outta clay. Why, the minute that ya get there, Folks'll walk right up and say, "Welcome home, son, welcome home to Santa Fe! " Plantin' crops, Splittin' rails, Swappin' tales around the fire, 'cept for Sunday when you lie around all day. Soon your friends are more like family, and they's beggin' you to stay! Ain't that neat? Livin' sweet in Santa Fe. Where does it say you gotta live and die here? Where does it say a guy can't catch a break? Why should you only take what you're given? Why should you spend your whole life living trapped where there ain't no future. Even at 17. Breaking your back for someone else's sake. If the life don't seem to suit you, how about a change of scene? Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between. Santa Fe, my old friend. I can't spend my whole life dreaming. Though I know thats all I seem inclined to do. I ain't getting any younger. And I wanna start brand new. I need space. And fresh air. Let 'em laugh in my face. I don't care. Save my place. I'll be there. Just be real is all I'm asking. Not some painting in my head. Cause I'm dead if I can't count on you today. I got nothing if I ain't got Santa Fe.
his expression at the end.... so happy and proud of himself (and why shouldn't he be?) and grateful..... gah talk about a perfect cinnamon roll! TOO GOOD! TOO PURE!!!!
You don't get this performance out of a recording star. He just can't stop himself from falling deeply into character as that lyric takes him away... as he does this audience.
I watched the original movie recently with my parents but I told them they had to watch the Broadway version that's on Netflix if only to hear Jeremy's rendition of this song. Blows my socks off every time I hear it 😆 Wow! Especially that last note!
+Angie Franco +A Hall he was on Smash, a show about a fictional Marilyn Monroe musical that features many musical numbers including him singing a lot so if you wanna see him on TV singing, you should watch that!
I love that he split the two santa fe's and it was so flawless. It starts out with a hopeful message. Like one day we will be there, but then something changes and its not a hopeful message, its a last hope message. ugh i love this song
I thank the high heavens for blessing me with the day I discovered Newsies because I was also introduced to this beautiful young man! Jeremy Jordan has given me so much courage and hope the last year a so and I cannot thank him and the Newsies production ennough! so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUU!!!
He is the best at acting while he sings. You really believe he is a poor newsboy dreaming about the hope of a new life in a city he's never seen. The emotion is so real .
I like him a lot, because he was Winn in Supergirl. (And of course, many other TV series and movies) I thought I would freak out when I met him in Young Americans. Thank you so much Jeremy!
This is a big mood, the only reasons I’d want to stay in Ohio would be one, my friends(except they’re all going to colleges all throughout the states) and two, Skyline Chili in Cincinnati, don’t ask me why, I just love it
I do Newsies in April and they gave me the role of Jake Kelly... I'm super proud! :) So, I do Santa fe and I take inspiration from him because we're gonna say it: HE'S FABULOUS!! Anyway, thanks ♥
He has inspired me so much, my dream is to be a Broadway actress. It's not just a dream for me it's a goal. It's a goal I promise myself to keep so I can look back on my young thirteen year old small town girl that I made her dream come true. You can give all the nasty comments you want I have had plenty. You can try and beat me to the ground but I will rise back up and I will climb my way up this mountain to my dream. Nothing you say can change my mind. I give u the full right to your opinion you can tell me that I can't do it, I don't care. This is for all the dreamers put there whose dream has been crushed by the Internet and others. Try, try, try again, u can do it never give up on your dream it can come true
Broadway Dreamer You’ll get there. You’ll make it. Because you’re absolutely right. You seem resilient and you know what you want. You said you’ll get back up. And hey, we’ll most likely never know eachother irl, but maybe someday i’ll see a show and you’ll be in the leading role.
Kazaela can I just... *hugs her tightly* I don't want to cry at the kindness you just showed. Ik this is probably a very late reply but.. Just bless u, and whatever u want to do in life, whatever God plans for u. I know u will be incredible at it. Just.. Thank u. It will be an honor if I ever get to meet u irl
Thank you for your advice. I want to do so many darn things like write books, be on broadway, be a corporate flight attendant but I have had so many people tell me no and I have let those words get into my head and I thank you for your advice because it woke something up inside me now I have been in a bad mood for the last couple of days and your advice has shaken me out of my funk.
Broadway Dreamer I want to be a broadway actress as well. Well, an actress in general. The earliest memory I have is watching musicals at the local theatere with my mom. I was amazed by the performance. Hell, I probably stared without blinking. I had some self esteem issues in middle school throughout high school, musical theatere really helped me get through it because of all the characters I played, those characters just kinda felt like they became a part of me. I want to be an actress and I’ll do whatever the hell I can!
They say folks is dyin' to get here. Me, I'm dyin' to get away, to a little town out west that's spankin' new. And while I ain't never been there, I can see it clear as day.

Livin' sweet in Santa Fe. (spoken) Hey, no one worries about no gimp leg in Santa Fe. You just hop a Palomino, you'll ride in style! CRUTCHIE (spoken): Picture me, ridin' in style. JACK (spoken): Hey, I bet a few months of clean air, you could toss that crutch for good! JACK & CRUTCHIE (sung): Santa Fe, you can bet. We won't let them bastids beat us. We won't beg no one to treat us fair and square. There's a life that's worth the livin', and I'm gonna do my share. JACK (sung): Work the land. Chase the sun. JACK & CRUTCHIE (sung): Swim the whole Rio Grande just for fun! CRUTCHIE (sung): Watch me stand! Watch me run... JACK (spoken): Hey, hey... (sung) Don't you know that we's a family? Would I let you down? No way. Just hold on, kid, till that train makes Santa Fe.
![Jeremy Jordan - Let It Go [Los Angeles, CA]](/img/n.gif)
I love how the accent becomes more prominent as he works his way through the song
This guy is one of my biggest role models.
Jeremy, I'm working my ass off now everyday.
Someday I'll make you proud.
Good luck.
💟
ya do good
Let's get this guy in front of a crowd!
Hope you're still workin man
Without a doubt, Santa Fe is my favorite song. Not only does it tell the story of Jack Kelley, but it tells a story of hope. It carries a message, telling its audience to follow their dreams. And it's so powerful, and I just relate to the words so much. Jeremy is most definitely one of my biggest heroes; with hard work, anyone can follow their dreams. One day, I hope I'll be able to thank him for it.
I fucking cry everytime I listen to Jeremy singing this song
Giovanna Grillo you cry? I cry wishing I'm gay when i listen to this guy
You are not the only one. I sob. Every time.
I cry everytime i her jeremy singing literally anything
His reaction at the end (tears in his eyes, deep breath). He was living that.
I seriously don't understand why this doesn't have millions of views. Such a legendary voice
Good god, what a performance! So many nuanced touches, from his facial expressions to the mid-chuckle...very attuned to the emotion of the song and what the character is feeling.
+Shenandoah Ludlow Geez. He actually tears up. Like he's completely feeling it, even though he's probably sung it a million times.
He is a fantastic actor, and he combines his acting skills with his singing
melayeller it's an amazing feeling as a performer to sing and feel this kind of music. It's deep and emotional to bust out belts and notes like this
Shenandoah Ludlow ii
Jesus Christ THIS is how broadway singing is done. This is how you really really do it. He's got a real gift
Jeremy Jordan has the most beautiful singing voice that I've ever heard. His singing voice has so much power and so much energy. I love when he hits the high notes because it sounds so powerful. He sings like breathing for the soul.
One of my greatest regrets is not being able to see him as Jack!
Jordyn Gum, you can his version is on Netflix
His voice at 2:20...if I could bottle up that “Santa fe” note and rub it all over myself like balm I would. SWEET LORD BOY!
The pause before he asks Santa Fe to be real and how red his face gets when he says he doesn't care.
i love how he sings this with his new yawk accent
Jeremy is truly gifted. His incredibly nuanced acting combined with his voice is incredible. Loved hearing more about him at the beginning as well, seems like a really humble guy.
He does the best Santa Fe and Jack Kelly. Hands down.
Thanks Jeremy Jordan, now I have an obsession. Also, kinda obsessed that you play Winn in Supergirl...
Who's watching this in 2017 because you can't get over of how emotionally attached you are to this song and well... IT'S JEREMY FREAKIN JORDAN SO ♥️
ME! *throws both hands in the air*
Kitkat M ME AND IM CRYING IN THE MIDDLE OF SPANISH CULTURE
*2018*

Where does it say you gotta live and die here?
Where does it say a guy can't catch a break?
Why should you only take what you're given?
Why should you spend your whole life living trapped where there ain't no future.
Even at 17. Breaking your back for someone else's sake.
If the life don't seem to suit you, how about a change of scene?
Far from the lousy headlines and the deadlines in between.
Santa Fe, my old friend.
I can't spend my whole life dreaming.
Though I know thats all I seem inclined to do.
I ain't getting any younger.
And I wanna start brand new.
I need space. And fresh air.
Let 'em laugh in my face. I don't care.
Save my place. I'll be there.
Just be real is all I'm asking.
Not some painting in my head.
Cause I'm dead if I can't count on you today.
I got nothing if I ain't got Santa Fe.
Bobi Wassabi Thank you for posting the lyrics for this version!!
this is a mixture of the prologue and main Santa Fe right?
@@toddjesson8708 yeah
his expression at the end.... so happy and proud of himself (and why shouldn't he be?) and grateful..... gah talk about a perfect cinnamon roll! TOO GOOD! TOO PURE!!!!
oof, that last note gave me goosebumps! such a talent.
This performance was nothing short of magnificent. This is how this song was meant to be sung...
Jeremy's voice is so soothing and nice to listen to. I could listen to it all day
Most soulful Interpretation of "Santa Fe".. thank you so much Sir Jeremy Jordan youve earned my Respect Sir. God bless.
You don't get this performance out of a recording star. He just can't stop himself from falling deeply into character as that lyric takes him away... as he does this audience.
God why is he so talented and hot. I'm upset
I watched the original movie recently with my parents but I told them they had to watch the Broadway version that's on Netflix if only to hear Jeremy's rendition of this song. Blows my socks off every time I hear it 😆 Wow! Especially that last note!
I saw him in Newsies on Broadway. He was phenomenal!
Who is still watching this in 2018?! Gorgeous voice and looks he has. I love JEREMY JORDAN!!❤️❤️
how is this guy not super famous!!!
+Angie Franco now he's on "Supergirl" and I turned on the TV and saw him and I CHOKED ON MY PIZZA AND ALMOST DIED
+A Hall I know but his voice is extraordinary I wish he had like a show musical I don't know I hope he makes it far.
+Angie Franco same. waiting for him to burst out into song on the show.
Lol exactly what I feel while wacthing it !
+Angie Franco +A Hall he was on Smash, a show about a fictional Marilyn Monroe musical that features many musical numbers including him singing a lot so if you wanna see him on TV singing, you should watch that!
I literally get chills while listening to this song (both versions) and it gets even better when he sings it❤️
damn i love it when he sings with his emotions.. it feels like broadway without the props and all
AHHHHHH! I LOVE JEREMY JORDAN!!!!!!! I am obsessed with Newsies! This is easily my favorite song!!!! I cry almost everytime I hear it!!!
I love that he split the two santa fe's and it was so flawless. It starts out with a hopeful message. Like one day we will be there, but then something changes and its not a hopeful message, its a last hope message. ugh i love this song
The last note always blows me away no matter how many times I've heard the song! ;')
This is what I strive to be I want to be so amerced in a character or song that I look like I have transported to a completely different place
Bravo!!!!!! He kills it on that last note!
i got a hamilton ad on this, and had the option to skip it, i most certainly did not.
Wow. Jeremy Jordan sure knows how to act, not to mention sing...! What a voice.
Honestly all I can imagine is the charecter he voices in tangled the series, Varian, singing this.
*im crying*
I thank the high heavens for blessing me with the day I discovered Newsies because I was also introduced to this beautiful young man! Jeremy Jordan has given me so much courage and hope the last year a so and I cannot thank him and the Newsies production ennough! so THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOUUUU!!!
He is the best at acting while he sings. You really believe he is a poor newsboy dreaming about the hope of a new life in a city he's never seen. The emotion is so real .
THERE ARE TEARS RUNNING DOWN MY FACE
His voice is flawless
I’m only 30 seconds in but I already might cry
3 words... I...love...Jeremy.
Amazing voice 😍😍😍💜💜❤️💜💜❤️❤️😍😍💜💜❤️
Omg he puts so much emotion in the songs he sings that's one of the main things I love about Jeremy Jordan
GOD I could watch this man sing this song 1 million times in a row and I wouldn't get tired of it. PERFECTION
Jeremy singing- holy crap-
Also the rainbow on his handsome face- hooo-

JEREMY Jordan, I want to be an actor and singer like you when I grow up:)
Please tell him to return to Newsies!
im crying omygod jeremy is my idol
I like him a lot, because he was Winn in Supergirl. (And of course, many other TV series and movies)
I thought I would freak out when I met him in Young Americans.
Thank you so much Jeremy!
bless his soul
The way he sings this song makes me wanna just pack all my stuff up and LEAVE this Ohio
It's Ohio...do you REALLY need a song to get you to want to leave?
Meg McCrary agreed. Though I've always wanted an excuse to move out of Ohio. Though I'd miss it, I don't enjoy it.
i hate ohio too i cant wait to leave. i’ll miss the people but i really hate the endlesssssss farmland
Do it
This is a big mood, the only reasons I’d want to stay in Ohio would be one, my friends(except they’re all going to colleges all throughout the states) and two, Skyline Chili in Cincinnati, don’t ask me why, I just love it
I do Newsies in April and they gave me the role of Jake Kelly... I'm super proud! :) So, I do Santa fe and I take inspiration from him because we're gonna say it: HE'S FABULOUS!! Anyway, thanks ♥

Jeremy - you are just amazing. Great job!
Background music sounded like frozen music to me. Loved the song!!
Ahhhhhhhh this is so freaking good
I never liked THIS song for a while, but when I heard him singing I had to take it back!
They say folks is dyin' to get here.
Me, I'm dyin' to get away,
to a little town out west
that's spankin' new.
And while I ain't never been there,
I can see it clear as day.
If you want, I bet'cha you could see it, too.
Close your eyes...
Come with me,
Where it's clean and green and pretty.
And they went and made a city outta clay.
Why, the minute that ya get there,
Folks'll walk right up and say,
"Welcome home, son, welcome home to Santa Fe!"
Plantin' crops,
Splittin' rails,
Swappin' tales around the fire,
'cept for Sunday when you lie around all day.
Soon your friends are more like family,
and they's beggin' you to stay!
Ain't that neat?
Livin' sweet
in Santa Fe.
(spoken)
Hey, no one worries about no gimp leg in Santa Fe. You just hop a Palomino, you'll ride in style!
CRUTCHIE (spoken):
Picture me, ridin' in style.
JACK (spoken):
Hey, I bet a few months of clean air, you could toss that crutch for good!
JACK & CRUTCHIE (sung):
Santa Fe,
you can bet.
We won't let them bastids beat us.
We won't beg no one to treat us fair and square.
There's a life that's worth the livin',
and I'm gonna do my share.
JACK (sung):
Work the land.
Chase the sun.
JACK & CRUTCHIE (sung):
Swim the whole Rio Grande just for fun!
CRUTCHIE (sung):
Watch me stand!
Watch me run...
JACK (spoken):
Hey, hey...
(sung)
Don't you know that we's a family?
Would I let you down?
No way.
Just hold on, kid,
till that train makes Santa Fe.
