  • Matthew Croke (Aladdin) performs a beautiful acoustic version of 'Proud of Your Boy'.
    With music by Alan Menken and lyrics by Howard Ashman, the song was written for the 1992 animated movie but didn't make the final cut. It was brought back for the Broadway and West End musical.

    "Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you." No matter who's singing that part always gives me feels!

    His voice gives goosebumps. Just like in the theatre. His performance of this song was just brilliant.

    This song actually adds depth to Aladdin's character. The actual diamond in the rough who is painfully self deprecating & aware of his flaws. Much better than the "cool" street rat we get in the final cut.

    How did this magical number not reach "the final cut"? Love that song ❤ Alan Menken

    Favorite song from the musical. Wish it was in the movie so more people could know it. It is so relatable and real for growing boys, so heartfelt and real. I love it so much.

    Proud of your boy
    I'll make you proud of your boy
    Believe me, bad as I've been, Ma
    You're in for a pleasant surprise
    I've wasted time
    I've wasted me
    So say I'm slow for my age
    A late bloomer, Okay, I agree
    That I've been one rotten kid
    Some son, some pride and some joy
    But I'll get over these lousin' up
    Messin' up, screwin' up times
    You'll see, Ma, now comes the better part
    Someone's gonna make good
    Cross his stupid heart
    Make good and finally make you
    Proud of your boy
    Tell me that I've been a louse and loafer
    You won't get a fight here, no ma'am
    Say I'm a goldbrick, a goof-off, no good
    But that couldn't be all that I am
    Water flows under the bridge
    Let it pass, let it go
    There's no good reason that you should believe me
    Not yet, I know, but
    Someday and soon
    I'll make you proud of your boy
    Though I can't make myself taller
    Or smarter or handsome or wise
    I'll do my best, what else can I do ?
    Since I wasn't born perfect like Dad or you
    Mom, I will try to
    Try hard to make you
    Proud of your boy

    As a vocal coach, I'd only say to him "be less conscious of how you sound and more about how you feel and express that more in the work." Great voice, it's there, now just make us know how you feel!! just a bit more. Example: "since I wasn't born perfect, like Dad or you", I'd like to hear more of his feeling "less than" in the way you chose to sing that phrase...
