I've listened to both Jeremy Jordan's and Aaron Tveit's version, and Jeremy's sounds like a jokey but heartfelt first version of the song that gets a dramatic and sincere reprise later on, and Aaron's sounds like that reprise. Both wonderful performances, and such different tones.

[@morgannotlefay]

You should listen to Ben Frankhauser's version!! It's SOOOOOO smooth!!! (Also, listen to Ben Frankhauser's "To Kiss a Girl" I LOVE THAT ONE!!)

[@naomipaish9935]

Also michael arden ofc

[@joshmcatee689]

[@emilysorano7768]

All of you arguing about him and Jeremy Jordan just think if the both of them were in a musical together. They could conquer the entire human population.

[@raachelelizabethh]

When he says "I'm in love with you." I'm pretty sure my heart melts every time. It's too precious to handle.

[@Karma21Girl]

I have never been happier to have been named Sam. THANK YOU MOTHER AND FATHER.

[@Mccornonthecobb]

Can we all just take a moment to appreciate those few random strands of hair sticking up? I think they deserve to be appreciated because they are fabulous.

[@winterelton2442]

His hair looks really cute in this

[@DTGeek155]

Why I think this interpretation is the best: There aren't any bells and whistles. He doesn't add any improvised flourishes, but solely relies on his acting and the quality of his voice to communicate the passion of the character. Also, let's talk about that head-dominated belt. By FAR the healthiest singer who has performed this song and one of the healthiest singers on broadway right now. Aaron Tveit is simply the BEST at this song.

[@stephenhaymond4612]

i much prefer michael arden, he just seems to put so much emotion into it it surpasses any other version i have seen, even this one. Aarons voice may even be a little better, just michaels emotion totally wins me over.

[@krisushi1]

DTGeek155 - you have summed up perfectly exactly how I feel this song is performed. Aaron is an amazing talent due to the reasons you've mentioned. He doesn't just sing a song, he acts it out as well making it so much more enjoyable. Especially after doing Les Mis. his career will most definitely flourish. Looking forward to what comes next.

[@mariannigroves7065]

Micheal Arden acts it best

[@ladonnamonk3380]

The way he says "country song" is so adorable! Oh Aaron, I'd run away with you anywhere!

[@gohtcheez]

OH MY GOD HIS VOICE HE'S JUST SO PERFECT IT'S NOT FAIR

[@yamilerios015]

His and Jeremy Jordan's version are my favorite of the billion versions of this song that I've heard

[@danielachamorro8783]

+Yamile Rios Same! They actually have emotion and they're so beautiful.

[@Musicalchick18]

+Yamile R. Michael Ardens version is right up here with this one as well!

[@sanahoda9341]

Yamile R. I also like grant gustin version

[@abialston8476]

Yamile R. Go see ben fankhauser’s version it’s beautiful

[@morgannotlefay]

Me too!! (But I also REALLY love Ben Frankhauser's version!!!!!! He has such as smooth voice! The way that he sings those riffs so effortlessly makes me melt every time!!!!)

[@alexhika]

He's just so gorgeous. I mean, the whole of him is: voice, acting, every single part of this performance blew me away :')

[@hotchellelvr]

He always throws himself into his songs. The emotions are so raw. There is a reason why every girl is in love with him!! :)

[@maddilew15]

He performs with such sincerity

[@gracenern8]

I LOVE AARON SO DAMN MUCH THAT HE MAKES MY SOUL HURT. WHY ISN'T MY NAME SAM??? WHY? MY NAME NEEDS TO BE SAM NOW. THIS MAKES ME SAD. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON. WHERE ARE MY SOCKS?

[@redstboys]

Aaron Tveit is incredibly talented. I am so happy that people outside of Broadway are starting to stand up and take notice. This young man is the whole package. Hope we get to see much more of his talent on screen and on stage.

[@TheBlackJewelz]

Wait, wait, wait, is that dude who played Enjolras in Les Mis???!!

[@beccaparsons6914]

Yeah, Aaron Tveit played Enjolras in the movie. (: He's the best.

[@somethingnexttonormal]

Yup

[@chrissy7378]

I still come back to this video. Aaron stole my heart with his rendition. Definitely a comfort video. Thank you for sharing and helping solidify my love for him and his voice back in late summer of 2009. 🥰

[@lucyalbaumann]

Coming here after El Tango de Roxanne because it was TOO MUCH PASSION for 6 minutes. So now I’m here. Aaron’s voice is so soothing but so powerful.

[@confundochristy]

i grew several gray hairs realizing how old this video actually is. but god, what a treat to return to this video after being introduced to TMO and after seeing how far aaron has come since then. 🥰

[@LJ-ib6yg]

The casual adorable energy he sings this with is crushing and beautiful.

[@actressLUVmo]

How much he's improved is simply unbelievable

[@hotchellelvr]

He smiles and every girl watching this melts without him even saying a word!!

[@sherrinfords]

Gotta love how he always acts so easily while singing. God he is mindblowing.

[@samanthakasehagen7344]

MY NAME IS SAM AND THIS JUST MADE MY HEART BURST

[@mbrews1020]

Freakin' adorable. Can he just sing every song for every show for the rest of forever?

[@ingridgrieg]

Years later, I still come back to this. Still my favorite version. :)

[@AmyNikitaMusicMusicalsMovies]

Yes, yes, yes I'LL RUN NOW!!! LET'S GO!! NOW!! I mean, you said RUN didn't you, didn't you?!!!

[@JennFan24]

This is my favorite version of this song. He nails it, and the emotion he puts into id is just incredible. His voice is just so beautiful!

[@Alice-qy3hf]

even aaron's extreme hotness and eargasmic vocals can't keep me from being distracted by the very expressive pianist behind him xD

[@TheFashionBarbie04]

im legally changing my name to sam

[@panchish]

HE'S SO SMOL

[@imgeniusish]

His hair sticks out in all the weird places, it's so funny and sweet I can't even~

[@england_aph1067]

He is such an impressive actor and musician, I'm in awe *-*

[@colaptesauratusable]

A) this song is beautiful. B) I don't think I've ever seen Aaron do anything without putting 100% of himself into it-- and he's such a good actor you buy it every time, no matter what emotion he's conveying, and that's really beautiful, too.

[@WinterSoldier0315]

He did this last night at 54 Below and the audience was putty in his hands. He needs a record deal asap.

[@michaelrodriguez9967]

He’s so honest I love him

[@JM-yp5zm]

it's 2022 now and still this is my comfort song

[@verified139]

The "Like" icon is insufficient to say how much I love this.

[@SarahSharpe1231]

OMG!!! THANK YOU!!!! COMPLETELY AGREE!!!! Aaron literally has the all-time BEST stage presence I've EVER seen!!! I mean, just watch his "Catch Me" Tony performance, his "Les Mis" Oscar performance, his cover of Pasek and Paul's "Along the Way"!!! He just BECOMES every character he plays and COMMANDS the stage!!! As an actress, is one of the MANY reasons why I'm utterly in love with this man!

[@yeahno4545]

this guy is perfect in every way I swear to god.

[@krisushi1]

better watch your wording, he's such a down to earth guy that I dread it if he suddenly got an ego.

he was Fiyero when I saw Wicked on Broadway for the first time....ever since then I have been in love! Such a beautiful voice!

[@climbinguphill]

You can literally see him break out of character after the song is over. Its amazing how far he has come in the last 6 years. Love him to death.

[@DancingThroughLifeOn]

I AGREE! I love when I can see that change when the play or song is over and they break out of character. :)

I will never get tired of listening to this song. Plus, it's fetus Aaron ❤️

[@colbysimpson4726]

I know this is the musical version, and don't get me wrong, I LOVE Aaron, but I still think Jeremy Jordan's voice fits this song better. Just my opinion, but I love both!

[@brooklynbuglet]

his voice is gorgeous! he's gorgeous! god what i would give to be serenaded by him with that song.

[@TheOlympicBanana]

He's always been an amazing talent, but his vioce just keeps improving It's terrifying and perfect

[@erikabautista7072]

***** me too, I just think they're cute together. Possibly also because of the E/E ship too

[@erikabautista7072]

***** I'm not sure, though I guess it's possible. They have pictures together on google but some could be edited

[@erikabautista7072]

***** some pictures look legit though so there's a possibility. Yeah, I've seen Sam with other barricade boys, so they could be. (she and Aaron I mean)

[@HannahSchaeffer19]

It is very difficult not to melt in my chair every time I watch this. Yes, I WILL run away with you, Aaron Tveit.

[@Apollo2198]

He looks kind of like a young Jim Carry, great singer.

[@peytongoethe2292]
