You know how there’s always someone from your high school that you know is going to make it big someday. I knew that it was going to be Brody Grant. I knew it was going to be Brody grant the day I saw him in the school play Joseph and the technicolor dreamcoat. He’s always been amazing. He’s right where he should be ❤

[@jc_huddy1004]

I don’t know you but it’s so crazy to me that someone that has performed on the same stage and walked the same hallways as me is now on the Tonight Show and nominated for a tony 😭🩵

[@terryjames9978]

Stands out above some good talent at that age..just so gifted I'm rooting for him

[@annblumenschine563]

My daughter attends the same small university he graduated from. We took a mother/daughter trip to NYC to see The Outsiders in May and it was amazing. We'll be watching the Tony Awards on Sunday and rooting for Brody as well as the others from the show who have been nominated. Go Hornets!

[@DauphinPourpre]

I'm sure your heart is happy for him. ❤

[@marshamellows2908]

You know how a vacuum is emptiness that sucks up everything around it? Well I knew @syraiolguin5281 was a total vacuum when she started posting her thoughts as if they were somehow really interesting.

[@zbotello1439]

The fact that this is just the beginning of his career. He’s such an exciting performer! I can’t wait to see all the things he’ll do.

[@richardfinch1789]

I am in tears as I listen to this ❤

[@sabinanaomi]

getting to hear brody sing this live was an absolutely beautiful experience!! love his voice and this show so much!

[@RitoWarrior]

FOR REAL I HAD CHILLSSSSS

[@lydiasworld6220]

YES BRODY I HAVENT EVEN SEEN THE SHOW AND IVE STILL BEEN OBSESSED SINCE DAY ONE 😂

[@charlottekriese7507]

Ur not the only one… me and u both

[@blessmeachewinggum873]

Ditto lmao

[@daniellecostanzo2974]

The mic was ONNNNNN and it was all stunning

[@karissalago4465]

I’ve been head over heels in love with this show since I saw it last month 😭

[@mp3holder94]

Same here!!! it’s so good!

[@koliver4561]

Same. I can’t get it out of my head.

[@patriciabowles1904]

Same here‼️‼️

[@laneasworld9624]

TEARS!!!!! How can a voice be this breathtaking and emotional at the same time? I hope he wins every Tony he is nominated for! Congrats BRODY!

[@haveufoundurid]

He is definitely one of the few who will be able to transition from musical theatre to radio.

[@emmajames7247]

As I’ve said since we performed together in our high school, Brody fucking Grant you’re gonna be the one to make it dude. So proud to see how far you’ve come from NoFo theatre and chamber choir days to the Tonight Show. Absolutely wild and so deserved 💛

[@Vaitb85]

This sounded so much better than their performance on the Today Show, even without the rest of the cast! Everything sounds so balanced here, and Brody's voice is incredible!

[@akarifunakoshi]

i've never been brought to tears by a performance on the tonight show. but tonight that changed. here i am crying like a baby at 1am. thank you brody for bringing ponyboy to life in such a beautiful, real, and raw way.

[@bettyesboy]

Just finished watching this on tv and we are sitting here in tears. Your voice is amazing definitely getting tickets to this!

[@Mariachigirl91]

Pony boy has always been a crush of mine. He’s always been my favorite character. And the way you brought him to life on Broadway is just so stunning and beautiful.

[@musicluvr0711]

How is this song more powerful with no background vocals ❤️

[@voxextremos22]

Brody Grant my friend the answer is clearly Brody Grant

[@nicholasgarrick8855]

Im crying beautiful song passionately delivered brody is incredible ponyboy he is such a great singer cant wait to see this musical 😭.

[@gdotson1001]

I loved everything about this show and Brody Grant is the nicest guy you could ever meet. So proud of him and everyone involved in retelling this beautiful story!

[@blurofrshngimges]

Had the privilege of seeing Brody perform in Outsiders 5 times while the show was in San Diego last year and twice on broadway this year. When I first saw it in February of 2023, I said that night that the show would make it broadway and that Brody would be nominated and potentially win a Tony. We're just weeks away from that happening. So proud of Brody, Sky, and the rest of this extraordinary cast!!

[@mp3holder94]

And here we are! The Outsiders is now a Tony Winner for best Muscial

[@zendragon4037]

Saw the Broadway show a couple of weeks ago...the performance of this song brought me to tears, and still does. The collective voices of the cast and the harmonies on Broadway do kick it up a notch. Bravo Brody!

[@mp3holder94]

yes!!! 100% agree i had to hold back tears during this performance! especially when they all started singing together

[@alex.bradford]

YES!!! He deserves that Tony Award🔥💯

[@syraiolguin5281]

Went to school with this man. He has always been amazing

[@Brianna_Slayyy969]

Fun fact: Brody(the guy singing this) was in my dad’s theater class! My dad is a high school theater teacher and he taught him! (Not lying😆)

[@Inkwellvintage]

that's so cool!!!

[@Brianna_Slayyy969]

@@Inkwellvintage thx!

[@Liviefan1]

What's he like?

[@janicehart5818]

SOUNDS EVEN BETTER THAN THE CAST RECORDING VERSION!!!!!

[@mars-zf1xs]

I am literally going to cry he has the voice of an angel

[@karmaoutlaw]

Thank you for having Brody sing, Jimmy!

Now, let's see some more!

[@Rats49]

literally in love with this cast and this man 😭

[@malea3753]

The Outsiders is my favorite movie/book of all time. I SO BADLY wish that I could watch the new musical 😭

[@yankee04]

The Outsiders will likely tour.

[@malea3753]

@yankee04 Yeah, it'll be a couple years though :/

[@zelimircabraja7529]

Natural, emotional, beautiful timbre, outstanding performance.

[@BroadwayPixie]

What I would give for a pro shot. This boy kills it. ❤

[@bonniemillhone6180]

OMGOSH KID!!! WHERE’S your album? One of the best voices I’ve ever heard & Im a huge music lover! Wow! Amazing!!!

[@leahmoore6820]

He has a single and go stream the Outsiders cast album!

[@shiloh4253]

THIS is how you properly perform a song. Eyes wide open to let the audience in - his whole heart is in his eyes when he’s singing this song. Much more powerful than when people think that “acting”= eyes squeezed shut the whole time but they look like they’re trying to squeeze out a 💩💩💩 and completely close out the audience.

[@mrsain19]

I bet he had that live crowd feeling some sort of way! Well done!

[@mp3holder94]

Saw this last month and it has been on my mind constantly!!! I have not 1 but 2 plans to go again this is truly an amazing show!!

[@Inkwellvintage]

Brody has such a wonderful, soulful voice and a powerful presence on stage. I wish him the absolute best, he’s going to go super far in life and I’m so excited to see where life takes him ❤

[@Kris_fan_edits_423]

I saw it on april,27 shortly after my birthday on april 23 on tuesday it almost made me cry i enjoyed it i am a real fan of the outsiders since i was 15yearsold now im 16 years old i feel like the broadway show and the movie taught me an important lesson because i feel like it tells you to go out there and be yourself and be anything you want I waved at one of the actors after the show joshua boone and he waved back i also feel like this also taught me a lesson because it tells me to stick up for myself and be myself i read the book before i watched the movie. I want to thank S.E hilton and the outsiders on broadway and in the movie for telling me to be myself i felt like this was an good 1980s movie for all kids because it teaches you an important lesson to all mostly teenagers my age so thank you for teaching me a way to be myself and not to listen to anyone who bullies you because there not worth it at all thank you Love , Kristina pacheco

[@laurenelizabeth7795]

What a star-cannot wait to see his career take off!

[@hohusen]

Hell of a show. Everyone needs to see it!

[@kryswilson2743]

I’m seeing that musical next Wednesday!! The Outsiders is one of my favorite movies 🎥

[@mp3holder94]

[@amelial.265]

I have been in love with this show since i saw it at the end of March. Brody Grant is INCREDIBLE

[@denisedecaro2892]

Awesome job! Bravo to all the musicians and Jamie on drums!

[@paulaalba7065]

I saw this live ❤ June 3rd 3024 one of the best days in my life yo be in Jimmy Fallon's audience ✨ and he performed this song twice, it was great each time and he said her mom was in the audience, It was so sweet

[@stephaniecole28]

What a beautiful voice Brody❤ I loved the movie and book. I'm looking forward to seeing the play😊

[@amelial.265]

He is 10000% winning that Tony Award.

[@2gregsoccer]

Over Jonathan Groff? Highly doubt it. However, he does a great performance in this role and the nomination is well-earned!

[@amelial.265]

@@2gregsoccer I forgot Johnathan Groff was nominated...... You're right.

[@brandstixs7836]

I was one of many that saw Brody Grant perform at our state thescon and everyone knew he would make it to Broadway one day.

[@roxiesbroadwaybreakdown5599]

What a truly unique and special voice. Very gifted! He has quite a bright future! 😁⭐️⭐️

Amazing seeing him perform in person

[@marshamellows2908]

Oooh. Somebody must have a degree in writing musicals. That's how you know its good, that and establishments awards. Exxon knows art!

[@YIPPIEEEEEE1111]

I NEED THIS ON SPOTIFY THIS SOUNDS HEAVENLY

[@shanghaijim7411]

TIL that's the show's band/orchestra behind him. They usually play in separate rooms underneath the theater because of the layout and such, so I feel like it was nice for them to play sitting together in front of an audience. Appreciate the pit orchestra!

[@jimhenson8553]

Brody has a long and amazing career ahead of him if he keeps his head on straight and avoids the vacuous cult of celebrity.

[@eli_in_the_house9286]

Brb gonna listen to the book and then the sound track 😭😭

[@jeffcorpuz9015]

His tonality is akin to James Arthur! Great pipes ♥️

Great job Brody

[@psmith669]

After watching this I'm booking a flight to New York with my wife to see this. Never been to Broadway. This will be a good one to start with.

[@loris8645]

It's an incredible show that stays true to the book and movie. The rumble in Act Two will completely blow your mind!

[@NYCrazyRob]

He's come a long way since American Idol.

[@SmoshedbyIckyrus]

Wrong person

@@SmoshedbyIckyrus I may have gotten him mixed up with Hall or Nash.
