Barrett's belting is off the charts and she makes it seem so easy and effortless.
Alia Martinez That's because she's amazing. in reality, however, belting _should_ be effortless if you follow correct vocal technique.
Carlos Alejandro Alvarenga not necessarily if you are new to vocal technique using a diaphragm that isn’t super strong yet you can still sing properly just with more work
Carlos Alejandro Alvarenga you can have horrible technique and still have effortless belts for example Ariana Grande (I love her but she doesn’t have good belting technique)
FOR REAL , SHE LOOKS LIKE SHE ISNT TRYING , YET SHE STILL WAS INCREDIBLE. (Yet here I am)
barett is such a queen im so mad i'll never get to see her as veronica :(((
Christina Carty same! I'm so disappointed that I won't be able to actually see her as Veronica
Christina Carty Who knows maybe she'll come back to a future show
They have no chemistry whatsoever!!!!! what got me mad was on 2:15 after her high note she gives him a warm kind hearted smile and he looks at it and looks away not even acknowledging it! like at least make her feel comfortable dude jfc
+Lizzie in this musical though, he's supposed to have the undertone of being in love with veronica. like he's not just crazy, but he's crazier because he's in love. the guy who plays JD in this video completely takes that atmosphere away from this heartfelt song.
Devian Colon They're not really doing the whole musical you know, it's just one song.
ElementheaFall just because it's one song doesn't mean that they shouldn't have good chemistry, this video looks like they have no chemistry
When Barrett smiled at him and he just looks away she looks so disappointed
I really hope that it was part of the song and them being in character because this guy is on my last nerve
Barrett is taking it down a notch for him, and he's still straining to keep up with her. Barrett's power is unmatched.
I feel so bad because after 2:15 Barrett smiles at him and he just looks away aND YOU CAN SEE THE DISAPPOINTMENT ON MY FAVS FACE AND IT IS NOT OKAY
It looks like it was supposed to happen. Cuz if you watch, the next part kinda goes along with it
I really hope it was just part of the acting because this guy is on my last nerve

30% OH MY GOD I LOVE BARRET
60% RYAN WAS BETTER
10% wow, this was great!
She's perfection.
Guys this was right before Barrett’s last (or one of her last) Heathers performances. There’s a good chance she was more sad than uncomfortable. Also performing in front of a few people is different than performing in front of a huge crowd.
Guys this was the same day as Barrett’s last performance as Veronica :(
“Hold me tighter. Hold me closer”
How? They’re like 20 feet apart from each other. It’s not happening
If that guy doesn't have nodes by now I'd be shocked. So much tension in the throat, yikes!
Chase Gray That's not necessarily throat tension. that could be either tounge or jaw tension.
I know right! Watching this, I was just like, ouch ouch ouch ouch, every time he tried a high note!
Yeah, he should be singing from his diaphragm, but he’s singing with his throat
Also, yup, I’m relying 5 years late, hope ur doing fine and ur still alive :)
Literally get chills when she sings "Don't you want a life with me?"
whenever she would perform with ryan, they would hug when she says “hold me tighter” like it was on the stage, but...
When listening to this without watching it, I loved it. But once you watch it it's so clear their lack of chemistry. Did they have a fight right before they sang this? They look so uncomfortable to be near each other.
fraya1022 I think they just arent used to each other maybe? dan and ryan normally sing this with barrett
fraya1022 It's probs because there just singing so they are not acting in character
ElementheaFall being in a relationship should have nothing to do with your acting. when you act, you aren’t yourself anymore, you are your character and in this sense, his character is insanely in love with Barrett’s character. so even if he does have a girlfriend or s.o., he should be putting that aside and playing JD. Either way he’s not doing that and its just bad acting
ElementheaFall Ryan had a girlfriend during this and still managed to perform dead girl walking without being awkward
The harmonization in the chorus is just too much to handle!
They. Are. So. AMAZING. Like damn they both got some lungs
@@gulrukhhassan1339WHAT DID THEY SAY (oh who am i kidding as if you remember after 4 years)
When both of them have been social distancing before the corona virus was a thing
her voice us GOLD
This guy looks like he's hard to build chemistry with. I don't know if Barrett what getting really into character or if she was just uncomfortable. Everything I've seen him in so far, he just seems like a solo guy, like he doesn't want to be around people or doesn't want to share a spotlight. I don't know, it's just a view. I'm sure he's kind on the inside, I wouldn't know. I don't like his vowels though, while singing, especially in 'tonight'. Ryan and Barrett had enough practice to match vowels while his seemed really narrow compared to Barrett's open space. But I'm just getting choral here!!! I should stop before I pick out anything else.
Cecilia Grunge I agree with you on that one, I very much enjoyed Ryan as JD! The understudy that plays him in the bootlegged version, Dan Domenech, is great as well! They both blew me away!
XMyChemx4xLifex idk i liked him. I can see what you are trying to say. But i think they sound nice. Barrett does over power him at certain points, but its obvious she has practiced alot when it comes to singing.
Perhaps that reminded the cast director of JD. A solo act trying to have chemistry with Veronica(Barrett). Aka the best Veronica.
Is it just me or do they both look incredibly uncomfortable with each other?? They have amazing voices and all but once you see them in person they look so stiff with each other ://
Monica Nobrega probably because Barrett is used to singing this with Ryan and not this random dude
applecidre no the person who played after Ryan left was Dan I’m pretty sure
barrett looks like she hates the guy
I'm obsessed with this song -it's BEAUTIFUL
Heathers the musical has officially taken my heart!
Ryan is the best J.D... i dont know who this guy is but he lacked chemistry in this performance, i don't know who he is as i said so was this just a bad performance or is this actually him? he IS a good singer but i definitely prefer ryan...
I agree with you. I love Ryan as jd. Him and barrett had more of a chemistry than this dude and her
RYAN HAS AND ALWAYS WILL BE THE BEST JD AND I THIS GUY IS WEIRD HE HAS AN ALRIGHT VOICE BUT RYAN IS PHENOMENAL AND IS THE BEST JD HAHA
YES BARRETT HIT THOSE HIGH NOTES
The guy who is singing JD's part sings really good. The girl who is singing Veronica's part sings REALLY GREAT. Why did nobody tell me Barnes and Noble had good karoke?!
Veronica is actually Barret from the original cast! Her voice is pretty, right? Anyways, I don't know who JD is
@@bellasgrandma2Idk, but that IS NOT the original JD in the cast recording. The original is Ryan McCartan
I clicked on this video I was like omg need to turn the volume down cause my ears might die from how powerful Baretts voice its sooooooo great I don't understand how someone could sing that loud xxxxx
beautiful but they act like they can't stand each other
I love how healthy her voice sounds 😍
April fools? I don’t know what to think of this comment if you’re being serious… powerful? yes. Healthy? No.
@@Jojo-hy8dm barrett’s belt just sounds so clean and strong in this video, it’s just another way of saying powerful because her voice is coming out in a really solid belt
@@Jojo-hy8dm actually I envy Barrett so much because if you've seen her singing up close like if you watch one of the studio recordings of mean girls, every time they cut to her belting her throat is so relaxed, like her Adams apple is so low for a belt. She has such amazing technique belting like oh my God. I don't know about her Heather's Days but by the time she gets on mean girls her high notes are definitely healthy.
And when she's in the airy light parts of the songs, you can tell she's not forcing anything and that's something I totally struggle with I can't be quiet singing comfortably lol. Maybe one day.
They have way less chemistry than Barret and Ryan or Barret and Dan, like they’re so far away and Barret and Ryan would be supporting each other and giving each other confidence by just jazzing each other up... not this as- man that I respect
She's so good
I like Ryan as JD better. I think he fits the character better
I love her voice so much. Its pure silk honestly
BARRETTS VOICE MAKES ME CRY DOES ANYONE ELSE GET THAT OR??
Any idea why Barrett looks so annoyed in this?
Probably because her partner seems hard to build chemistry with 😄 idk, this is the only performance I've watched with him in it. Maybe it was an off day
I've also heard that this was one of her last days before she left the show, so maybe upset/stressed about that? x
I checked his Freeze your brain on the same day. He looked fine in that. Maybe this is how he plays this song...?
Lucy 123 nobody knows. That's what I ve been told. I had heard she messed around to much so they fired her I have also heard that she damaged her voice or she left for more opportunities. I think she left for the opportunities. She didn't sound like she damaged her voice
So much tension between these two...
2:03 THIS DESERVED THE APPLAUSE
I can't! This is literally too amazing for me to handle!!!(:
2:32
*5 feet apart from each other*
Hold me tigher, even closer...
I like Ryan and Dan better
Juliette Darmofalski Ryan was better at convincing me her really was psychotic, but I love Dan, his voice, and not to mention THE FLOOF!
I don't feel any emotion coming from him. Maybe he needs more practice.
if you had bothered to watch heathers or even read about it you would fucking know he is a SOCIOPATH ryan has to emmulate that, which means NO FUCKING EMOTION
Kara Stub yeah, plus he’s a different actor to Ryan and can interpreter the character in his own way
@@karastub1278 I wouldn’t say that he displays NO emotion, but not much.
That dude really does need to take a deep breath
Love her outfit here!
I need more of Barrett's eyebrows in my life.
Y'all gotta stop hating on Dave, give the guy a break.
UHG I can't stop listening to this song
i love her so much. she is just perfect
"They look uncomfortable" yeah because theyre not acting theyre singing 😭
Her voice 😍😍
when you look at the shadow behind the two singers it really looks like they are in love
So, I was just listening to the music, and I love it! obviously, and I know and love this story, and the musical, and am very aware of how dark it is, but this time, when I was listening to the song, for some reason it just made me think of a musical version of some teen angst drama Tv show. It feels like if they made a musical episode of the show Clone High, if you know it, this song would be in that episode.
Gosh, I'm so in love with Barrett
Wtf happened between them? Dave looks so annoyed with her and you can see how disappointed Barrett was when she gave him a smile and he didn’t even care.
She makes it look so easy... HOW?????
I am *always* at Barnes and noble how. Did. I. Not. See.this.
I cry every time i see her perform.
Cause i can't be there.
oh my god it’s been five years wtf😲
barrett is so cute and her voice is everything
fantastic
Why can't they do a professional recording of the whole thing with Barrett and Ryan
Well I mean it isn't possible now because their run was in like 2013 and they have moved on since then of course. But I do wish that there was one. But hey there are some pretty cool community theatre versions I've seen and the fact that I didn't have an opportunity to see the original really pushed me to search for them. Try it! :)
Ryan will always be my favourite JD
The guy playing JD looks he really REALLY doesn't want to be there....
Esa voz mujer 😍😍😍
Love it
god, barrett is so perfect i cant
She's legit the best veronica fite me
Ok so this thing but look at their shadows and it visualize their moods
Will I ever not cry from this song? Probably not
this showing was on my birthday and I had no idea this show existed until now... bummed
I think Ryan made jd look more like a phycopath and Dan made JD look more like a sociopath but personally this JD didn't convince me in either
I love this song so fucking much and love these two performing it, but they both look really uncomfortable, tired and out of their element here. D:
YES BARRETT!!! QUEEN SLAY!!!
When the drama teacher leaves to go to the toilet and someone gets the karaoke ready
Shes so cool
The guy playing JD had\has a good voice and they sounded great but he just seemed really uncomfortable
BARRETT IS MY SPIRIT ANIMAL
Make me cry
YESSS BARRETT SLAYS IN THIS
barrett is so incredible omg
Ok but their shadows are like looking at each other
HOLY F HOW DID I JUST NOW FIGURE OUT THAT BARRETT PLAYS OCTAVIA IN HELLUVA BOSS WTH OMGGG
It’s sad when you realise that Barrett left the show a few days later, before the end of the show (August).
Nikko is the best Veronica and no one can tell me otherwise. The character just comes so easily to her
Really wish I was there :(
Awww my poor Barrett ❤️ she looks so uncomfortable with this guy☹️💕
Ryan and Christian are the best Jason deans
BARRET IS LIFE
DAaAaAAaaaAaaAmn
Haha I'm not crying you are (Barrett is my life and she makes me cry with her effortless emotion)
They have no chemistry... but it sounded great!
Is it only me but them two kinda had a moment I would love them to go out in real life x
JD looks like he'd rather be anywhere but with her. Which is completely the opposite of how JD is.
God dam that gut needs to chill he bouta be hulk his veins be popping out IMAOO
Barrett:,)💙
NO ONE IS BETTER THAN BARRETT OK SHE IS THE BEST VERONICA OK
Grace Elizabeth AMEN YAS
I know right? She's the best ❤
FACTS CAN WE ADDRESS THIS
YES
Grace Elizabeth YES
