it's just so intense, you can tell that Jeremy really took note of the horrific experience Clyde would have had in jail and he emotes it so amazingly here. I also love to compare his portrayal of a character like Clyde Barrow to his famous role of Jack Kelly- both dreamers but with such different intent and personality. You know you've got a talented actor when he can perform two roles so individually.
Lots of practice, or breathing exercises. If you sing the song or focus on just the last, hold it for as long as you can and practice pushing yourself to hold a bit longer each time. Eventually if you practice it enough you might be able to do it
Actually just make sure to breathe under your breath from the stomach before that sentence starts and hold out till the end. That’s how I successfully do it
I’ve only managed to do it ounce and it’s incredibly hard [im only fourteen so not a lot of experience] but if you do it I swear it’ll be the thing you’re proudest of for a while.
i love the way he did a little glissando on "littleeeeeee" making it a little sharp and then belted the hell out of "Hell" ahahah it's so clever and so on point with the character and the song
I am so obsessed with this song. You hear him going crazy in this song, and the desperation in his voice to get revenge. I fall more in love with Jeremy Jordan every time

fun fact: during clyde's time in that prison, there were prisoners selected to be guards in the prison (one being ed crowder, clyde's abuser), and they would abuse the other prisoners. if the workers did not do enough work or do their work good enough, then they'd be beat. because of that, prisoners would cut off toes to get out of work, including clyde who asked another prisoner to cut off two of his toes, giving clyde a limp
I just love how much rougher and sort of... out of control he sounds in this one (and to a lesser extent Too Late to Turn Back Now, when Bonnie threatened to leave). You can hear the desperation and panic.
This song always kinda makes me wanna cry. Thinking about what happened to Clyde in jail. No wonder he so strongly made it clear he would rather die than go back there.
Emmery Says Hi yeah and he really only killed cops that were trying to kill/arrest him or civilians that were trying to help the cops. They only killed a total of 13 people, maybe less, since they always got accused of crimes they didn't commit. He really didn't like killing people and would rather kidnap them, then drop them off somewhere with money to get back home. Its really an interesting story, but it's been blown way out of proportion.
@@starlesseyes5713 I know their story is fascinating. And in this song one of the lines is "Never killed, but now I have to" meaning he only did it because there wasn't another option. I don't believe Clyde was a murderer at heart. And that prison changed him. Obviously I'm no historian, but it's definitely a cool story.
When I listened to this for the first time and I had no clue what was happening and Jeremy sang the “all I did was rob a few stores” and I laughed very hard and I’m just here to apologize because oh dear god

Yea, the line “justice here don’t fit the crime” can go for a lot of situations. Poor Clyde, he really was a tragic victim of a poorly managed legal system.

I laughed when he said that the Devil got him bc that's what people from Texas say when we fuck up. "Oh the Devil got a hold of me!" "It's the Devil's fault!" etc
Long story short, a combination of a relatively poorly-timed opening, critics in general being incredibly wary of Frank Wildhorn, less-than-stellar marketing, and neither Jeremy Jordan nor Laura Osnes necessarily being thought of as the stars they are now (or would become even just a few months later in JJ's case).
Ahh... "justice" again... more happy bubbles. Idk ok?! Knowing Jeremy Jordan the most from his roles as Winn Schott and Jack Kelly, it is refreshing and a bit weird to see him as an "evil" character in Bonnie and Clyde and in Death Note.
Joie Carrillo you should watch Tangled: The Series. He voices a kid called varian, I won’t say much, but let’s just say he’s a bit of a trickster. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
@@justalonelykid.1586 OMG. I didn't know that was him! I have found myself caught up in a few episodes, but it was back when I didn't know who Jeremy was. I might take up that suggestion. P.S. I like your profile pic. (She is my favorite character) 😁
i think Jeremy jordan did workshop jd from heathers but it’s so annoying he’s probably too old now to play him cause the song just gives me meant to be yours vibes so much😍
Jeremy’s vocals had them shaking in awe so much it blurred their vision, and they thought they hit the like button when it was really the dislike button 🤭
It’s actually so sad what jail turned Clyde into. All he wanted was to get away from Ed Crowder for good, which is understandable, because no one should have to go through what he endured at the hands of that monster.

the amount of badassery and emotion in this song is astounding i honestly can't fucking believe their run wasn't any longer
Ik. It makes no sense-
At least they're going to do it two more times. They might even record it!
"So let's raise a little hell" is all one breath at the end of the song. How is that possible? In what world?
Lots of practice, or breathing exercises. If you sing the song or focus on just the last, hold it for as long as you can and practice pushing yourself to hold a bit longer each time. Eventually if you practice it enough you might be able to do it
It’s very possible, I can do it. You just have to train yourself
I appreciate the explanation though because I'd like to learn to do it with however many years of voice lessons
Actually just make sure to breathe under your breath from the stomach before that sentence starts and hold out till the end. That’s how I successfully do it
I’ve only managed to do it ounce and it’s incredibly hard [im only fourteen so not a lot of experience] but if you do it I swear it’ll be the thing you’re proudest of for a while.

This murder is absolutely justifiable because even criminals shouldn’t have to go through something as awful as what Clyde want through in the prison
When I was child I always wanted to be like Clyde or other famouse criminalist. Strange thing for someone who wanted to work as policeman also.

This is the same guy who voices Varian in _Tangled:The Series._ ☺.
He was also jack kelly in newsies
And Jamie in the last five years movie
And light in the death note musical
