- The ladies reign when it comes to the Song Association scoreboard... but can Darren Criss change that? The award-winning Glee alum stopped by - with his guitar in tow - for our first-ever, instrument-accompanied version of the game. Watch as he sings The Killers, The Beatles, and Fall Out Boy, all while strumming a (broken!) guitar.

other artists while doing this: uhhmmm uhmmm uhmmm
Darren Criss: so heres all the songs you’re looking for... and on a guitar
toasted wAffles ...and missing a string
😂
And he still looks perfect while doing it
With a broken string
And played more than one... 👍🏻
That’s like Finneas when he named like four songs for each word
other artists: stopping to think and struggling a bit
darren criss: here's three songs per round AND live guitar
And without one string!
“i’m battling with weights on my feet”,,,, well maybe he should take them off... no one told cris to use a broken guitar :/
Darren Criss: has musical theatre training, was on Glee, I’m sure has done much more
Me: Look at the Harry Potter man go.
musicalmegan yo have u seen my troy bolton horcru- poster?
and it was totally awesome!!!
omg i was waiting to see a avpm comment
musicalmegan me tho
lmfaoooo
word: clean
darren criss: sings mean by taylor swift when she actually has a song named clean
ugh I love him
that was exactly what I thought !!!
omg i was thinking the exact same thing
I was looking for this comment. Clean is the song I would’ve done if it were me and then once he did Mean I was like omg almost. And I figured someone else would catch it!
I was thinking the same thing
He should have gotten 50 points. He totally got all of them, plus extras, with a double handicap
Outside and multiple songs for each one!!
Double handicap?
@@gaila.9852 Guitar and it's broken
interviewer: you're overachieving at this point
darren: *sings yet another song*
I love that part 😍😍
Am I the only one who think that Darren is the perfect Eric from Ariel?
But I don't want him to have a bunch of fake fans because I love being a fan and then I would be mad and idek why😂 I also think that he is better than that. His performance in the assassination of Gianni Versace was absolutely amazing and to go from that to a most likely poorly made movie would be really sad. In my opinion but you know I'm just a child with not much knowledge so I'm probably wrong
No, hes way too good for that character😊
I would accept him as Eric... he looks more like Eric than Harry Styles
Sophia Czekalla i want this to happen
i would boycott the little mermaid if he wasn't eric
I don’t care how many other artists have done this, he wins!
He literally sung the songs perfectly with a guitar and plus extra songs with little time to think about what he’s gonna do 😌
AND a broken string lol
Interviewer: You are...overachieving right now
Darren: overachieves even more and sings another song
Did he.....imagine the chord on a piano...so that he could play it on the guitar...? His mind.....
what?? no you just imagine the chird on guitar hahaha if you play guitar for a long time you just starts to get this kind of thing
Yes
That is actually a very common thing for musicians to do if they play both instruments. if you know the chords on one you can figure them out on the other.
Claire Kim-Narita PFFF whats hard in this? Every musician can do it
Claire Kim-Narita I mean he could have or he just knew the chords for the songs on the guitar, as a guitarist myself I can say that after a while when you imagine a song you can just tell what the chords are
No one:
Not a soul:
All of us about Darren Criss: talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular, never the same, totally unique, completely not ever been done before,
he’s perfect 💯
And Harry Freaking Potter
And he’s so chill and pleasant all the time I literally don’t know how he’s so nice to everyone
Don’t forget totally awesome
He's Totally Awesome
ELLE: Your word is ‘’dance"
Arianna, Billie, Camila: .............um...............
Darren: "Are four songs off the top of my head enough?"
ikr I was so surprised none of them remembered Whitney's song :O
Ariana got dance, she did Dance Dance by FOB
Darren, you have your own song that has the word dance in it :D :D (my favorite of yours
It’s Ariana
Not gonna teach you’re boyfriend how to dance with you 😄😄x
*_"I don't know the lyrics, there's a lot of them"_*
Rosie lol im ded 😂
I read this as he said it lol
ya’ll cheated him with i wanna hold your hand!
Right!
@@lindsayyy2505 that may be true but the editors have definitely held the timer when other artists were getting near the word, so in a way they did kinda cheat him
Yes!!
And with so fresh so clean. Others got a point even though they used that same song.
YES! He was robbed!! Robbed, I tell ya!
well, when Ariana sang the whole song, you just stopped time and gave her a point, and when Darren sang the whole song, you did not count him points, wtf Elle?
That happened to a lot of artists in other videos as well... idk why they changed it... :/
maybe it was another person editing? idk
estoy dead probably...
And the repeated song, many others got a point for using the exact same song.
Yeah you shouldn't lose a point for not getting to the word in time, you should get the point regardless. Just as long as you got the song the word is in.
Only me who was waiting for the words “cough” or “syrup” ?
Is this a young the giant reference
Vallie 3217 well, cough syrup is one of the most notable songs he sang on glee, so yes but also no
M Roberts everybody
i literally love when he sings that song
Totally
I'm sorry, but Darren singing "All you need is love" sent me BACK
Saaaame
I’m sorry but Chris Colfer had to enter the studio and said oh darling this is the song that you sang me when you asked me to marry you
I'M CRYING...
i was waiting for someone saying that
me toooooo
When he sang she's so high 😍
i need a full cover
@@MaxRoc21 Saame! My very first thought was "well now I'mma need a full She's So High cover stat!"
@@MaxRoc21 Yasssss 👌
Neh-Bih Sangbong Right😍😭
NOW I LOVE HIM MORE :)
He should’ve gotten the point for the Haim song, he sang “right now, right now” within the 10 seconds... I’ve watched people sing less and get the point.
I think it's bc it didn't sound recognizable with a mainstream song
Yeah he should have. I knew immediately what song he was singing
I didn't realise that I needed Darren Criss to sing Fall Out Boy's Dance Dance until now
Sameeeee, I need to see a full cover now
@@danieloliveros2209 I would die for a full cover...
RIGHT??
@@Noah-zg4nd WE would die
I think he might be a musical genius
Carl H yes
Carl H nope
You think? Of course he is
And I would say an acting genius too!! Did any of you see him in the Assassination of Gianni Versace? He was INCREDIBLE!!!! He had me glued to EVERY episode of that series.
Carl H very much agree
the INSANE music theory talent that this man has-
He's a smoke show
@@sdidora5 I had to look that up ngl.
Why didn't he get extra points for all the extra songs he sang😩
"Love, like every song ever..."
*only plays Beatles*
it was beatles week in glee club again
WHY DIDNT THEY GIVE HIM THAT BEATLES SONG HE OBVIOUSLY KNEW THE WORD HAND WAS IN IT HE JUST WANTED TO SING THE WHOLE THING - big scam - no me gusta
I can imagine Santana Lopez saying that last part
April Malec “know mee gustar”
Are u Santana?😂
Mariana Rema yessir 😂
imma show them what lima heights adjacent is all about!! 😂😂
The fact that he just randomly remembers the chords is amazing
Rebecca Cui It’s not memorizing. It’s just being able to recognize what chords make what sounds.
When did I say it was memorizing?
Rebecca Cui “Randomly remembers the chords”
lo what do you think "remember" means?
@@loopdiditydoop1926 i think they meant chord placement rather than chords of a song... That could be impressive to some peeps
Person: you're over achieving
Darren: here's another one
darren: *plays all you need is love*
my mind: KLAINE PROPOSAL
SAME OML
Si.
SAME OMG
This all that glee training 🤦🏾♀️😂😂
Facts lol watch Terrell Grice episode of song association with Amber Miley ❤️
I don't think so xD
Actually you can contribute that too his theatrical training from the University of Michigan. It is one of the top programs in the country. That is when Darren first start making his youtube videos. He was close friends with some of my student staff members when he was a student and I was an employee.
This is that Very Potter Musical Training
mandisa bailey 😂😂😂
He should’ve gotten extra points for knowing more than one song for a word, and he should’ve gotten the point for “hand” he’s the best they’ve had
I agree with he should have got a point for hand! I knew exactly what song he was singing and when he would get the word in, and he did too! Plus the title has 'hand' in it
Yes! Why didn’t he get it??
Totally agree with that they’ve allowed other people so they should of let that slide .
They usually stop the time as soon as the singer starts singing.. totally unfair
Agreed.
literally everyone in song association: almost got no time to think a song lyric for the word
darren: PLAYING A GUITAR WHILE SINGS A BUNCH OF SONGS WITH THE RIGHT CHORDS
That's the "Glee" coming out in him.
i loved him in glee and i still love him now
camila aldos loved him in a very potter musical and I still love him now
TheMotherConfesser once a StarKid always a StarKid
He hasn’t changed a bit!
Also american crime story.
loved him in literally all he’s been in
I desperately need Darren Criss to cover She’s so high
no one:
nobody at all:
Darren: sorry, my guitar is missing a string 😔
every time i watch this i'm beyond frustrated that they didn't give him the point for "right now." he got it in time, and the word is literally in the title of the song wtf
also can we can a full cover of "she's so high"
the fatimagic Yess I really need that one, god he’s amazing
darren criss won. idc. that's it. everybody go home.
for fucking real
💀💀
Hana Banana YES
FIGHT ME
0:33 "even the police are upset about it" I'M SCREAMING LMAO I LOVE HIM SO MUCH
I love him so much he’s amazing ❤️
ok. are we going to just ignore how for "Love", he sang All You Need Is Love.
THE SONG BLAINE FRICKIN PROPOSED TO KURT WITH

@@idunnowhatimdoin SORRY LMAOOAO

Précieuse Knd we need this playlisttt

@@theo7000 thank you, appreciate it
WOO
Kelsie Burnard hi!
I need a full recording of Darren singing "She's so High". That would be amazing!
💯💯💯
Agreed
YES IM OBSESSED WITH THAT SONG AND THIS MAN
I said to my sister the other day "honestly, I swear nearly everyone's in Glee"
She replied with "Oh what about any of the Harry Potter cast?"
My mind immediately went 'Darren Criss' and I *wheezed*
Also why the hell did he not get a point for “I want to Hold your HAND”????
he ran out of time before he could say hand
thats the song kurt sang omg
@@luciasanmartin6158 yeaa and there was the song All you need is love tooo
He got like triple the songs compared to everyone so he's totally won in my eyes! You should have totally counted Hand!
Lara M what song was that?
Friendsfans123 it was I Want To Hold Your Hand by The Beatles
7:18 “ That’s so unfair🥺” THE WAY HE SAYS IT KHUFRDVUJ
I feel like we need more than 8 minutes to fully appreciate darren criss and his music knowledge and overachievingness lol
For this game, can you please invited:
- Brendon Urie
- Camila Cabello
- Normani
Yesss Brendon!!
Oh my gosh please bredon Urie
YEs BRENDON PLEASE
YASSSSS BRENDONNNNN
Brendon!!!!!!
He got so many points if they actually gave it to him for being the only one ever to sing so many songs based on the words. And that “hand” one should of definitely been a point.
they robbed him of I wanna hold your hand, he clearly had the song he just hadn't actually sang hand yet.
Rigged
Right!!
I can't believe he couldn't think of Queen's "Don't Stop Me Now" for the word "Now". But I just love how casual he is, missing a string, no problem, can't remember lyrics, just make something up haha gotta love this guy
He should have got the haim one and “hand” - he had the song already!! Just because he didn’t sing the word within the 10 seconds doesn’t mean he wasn’t on his way there
Flora facts, they let others have the point when it happened to them.
He got "now" too. Yes he only sang 'right now, right now' but he sang the word.
@@chrisluzonofficial ikr! Especially Ariana Grande
*I'm still pissed, they did him dirty this one.. he's still KING tho.. he absolutely killed it. Wtf Elle sometimes you stop timers for other singers like what* 🙄
"do doo do do Doo do do do doo FRIENDS" hahah I died
Im definitely confused how he has 12/15 instead of 14/15. You're punishing him for singing more of the song than he had to? Seems a little off.
He missed two it should have been 13/15
@@kelanievassor4253 I think he got "Now." He sang the part of the song with the word and knew the artist. That has counted for others before, why not him? So I think he deserves "Now" and "Hand" thus 14/15
Sometime the singer gets the point when they start singing in the 10 seconds and sometimes the word has to be sung in the 10 seconds. That's unfair
@@alexandranee238 TRUE
BRENDON URIE IS NEEDED! YALL SHOULD GET HIM ON ASAP
YES
adhkhejrhbfejreh YESS life would be complete if he did this
Vincent Espana I agree
I CAME JUST TO COMMENT THE EXACT SAME!
YES
I love that he mentioned A Star is Born from Hercules.
Hermione can’t draw but Darren sure as hell can sing
🙌
But Lupin cant
Lupin can’t tho
@@prongsverse Brian Holden can't either.
This fandom 😂 we are like fleas on the wall. Where ever Darren goes we must follow. One might say we are the star kids to his sky *cough*
WHY IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW HE SANG ALL STAR!?!? ICONIC
someBODY
Once told me the world was gonna roll me!!!
Martina Lopez Vangeli TOLD ME THAT YOU HAD A BOYFRIEND THAT LOOKED LIKE A GIRLFRIEND THAT I HAD IN FEBRUARY OF LAST YEAR! IT’S NOT CONFIDENTIAL, I’VE GOT POTENTIAL, JUST RUSHIN’ RUSHIN’ AROUND!
@@PolyBiBadger yasss the killers!
Seriously 😭😩❤️
Word= Love
Me: I could be falling in love, falling in love, falling in love with Hermione Granger
YES!
I was waiting for do do do HERMOINE CANT DRAW!!
Singing “All You Need Is Love” (his proposal song in Glee) and then right after singing All Star. All i ever needed
Darren singing All You Need Is Love after he did it in Glee for Kurt's proposal is giving me life
Same!!!
Darren Criss is the type of guy to bring a guitar to a party. He’s THAT guy.
He has confirmed this many times xD He is very much the guy who brings the guitar and without fail initiates the sing-along situation at a party!
And play wonderwall
I literally typed the same comment before seeing this
in the muggle world, he is considered what they call a douchebag.
and if he sees a piano there's no stopping him
the insane amount of talent spilling out of this person is unbelievable?!
4:05 "I wanna dance with somebody who loves me... in way lower key than Whitney." LMAO
Goal: hate all men
obstacle: Darren Perfection Chris
Did I ghost write this comment?
*criss
Fucking accurate
This man is a living jukebox damn
It's AMAZING that he's able to come up with the lyrics AND the chords for all of these songs in under 10 seconds. Wowwww.
6:01 I'm OBSESSED
Did anyone else think of the glee scene when he started singing all you need is love??
just me, ok
and smile 🥺🥺
Yesss same
The proposal💜☺scene
Your profile picture makes me cry bc ryden
Teagan Brady I WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT JUST THAT
I need a full cover of Darrin singing Dance Dance by FOB.
SAMME

Watch me sob if that happens
OMG SAME didn't now I needed that up until now!
It was beautiful 😍
Them: Dance
Me: I take my foot.. My little foot
My people will get what I'm talking about
thats exactly what i thought too
i was disappointed but not surprised that he didnt sing this anthem. maybe he just thought he would never live up to joes iconicness
Der der der😂😂
To dance again
"All you need is love" gave me Klaine PTSD
This is what we call ‘musical Genius’
Rate R hmmm
Darren: plays mouth guitar whilst playing an actual guitar.
3:38
Sarah Soda 😂😂😂
darren: sings all you need it love

Bruh, he's better at this than all the other artists combined lol, even with a guitar
How is he so perfect
I’m kind of jealous
Also where my gleeks at
HERE! 👆

He can remember all these lyrics but never his own. This is why I love Darren.
Berit Hogan I was looking for this comment! 😂

darren criss: HEy nOW uR An alL sTAr
Soo true😂😂😂😂
T h a n k y o u f o r t h e r e f e r e n c e s
the word love comes up: Darren sings 90% of beatles songs...
how does he not get credit for "I Wanna Hold Your Hand"? he had the song right away!
Tht was unfair, he couldve used so fresh and so clean again bcuz they let the others do it....
BUT TO ME he won, i mean come on, the dude had a guitar despite the broken strings
I mean I've always known that he's talented but DAMNNN he's a KING with this guitar and his voice.. gosh he plays the guitar sooo well
i love m
I love him
Dude is talented af, like playing the game with the guitar, like I can barely remember the lyrics of any song, let alone the chords
Does Darren have perfect pitch?
His energy is so likeable.
“All you need is Love” Blaine...Kurt...GLEE
THANK YOU
So I have binged a bunch of these Song Association videos from Elle, three years later. Even though he didn't get a perfect score like some of his successors in this game--he crushes his selections the fastest. Often times within the 1st second or 2 AND provides several options for the word. DC, my guy!
Darren: sings "all you need is love"
Me: *cries in Klaine*
should’ve gotten the “hand” one for sure.
He's so underrated ...very sad really!
Darren should be huge like Bruno Mars and Justin Bieber !Af
No not really. His voice is not that extraordinary. Actually he has the most banal voice you could ever heard, it's a simple voice. A good karaoke singer, that's all.
He deserves everything. He deserves everything. He is so talented and fortunately he is receiving recognition. He has tons of talent. He was in glee and starred in shows on broadway, where not everyone arrives. His voice is beautiful, it is not common or simple. Anyway, it focuses more on acting for now and has won everything. From an Emmy, a golden globe, a critic, and a SAG. In addition to a nomination to the emmy for best original song. All that added to his beautiful heart and humility, is one of the few people in the show that really deserve admiration.
@@nout_1997
Yeah but he's so talented he's got composer and acting credits as well, he should be bigger than Bieber just for that! The man's been on broadway multiple times ffs, you need a shit ton of talent to do the same show and give the same amazing performance 8 times a week!
Darren deserves many more points AJKFSDHJSDFK
i can only imagine his playlist
6:48 He should have gotten that point...?
So many people have gone past 10 s and you've given them the point, ie HER and "best part"
True
exactly!
Even if he did sing it within the time he didn't even say HAND
understAND
Natsha Ghsin, but then he continues and would eventually say the correct lyric to the given word, smh.
just4fun620 exactlyyy
*You are over achieving at this point*
Keeps playing guitar 🤣🤣
*seen
*continues to over achieve*
Hahaha I laughed when I heard it
I DIDN'T KNOW THIS HAD SO MANY LIKES YA GIRL IS STOKED
Hearing Darren Criss singing All You Need Is Love after Glee has ended does things to my heart. I don't know if he even thought about it, but that song along with Teenage Dream will forever hold a special place in my heart
