And he brings so much more to each song that way. Each of his little one-song videos is a whole show for us. He's the ultimate performer.

@appgreen80198 жыл бұрын
Great voice! Just my two cents worth.... By the song's lyrics, it projects inner conflict, deep human anguish, desperately seeking God for an answer, " why now, why today?" Simon Bowman and Will Chase effectively projected those emotions with soulish frailty, not with cockiness like rolling of the eyes or a tinge of personal haughtiness. Aaron is a great actor and am sure he will refine his take on Chris if he gets this role, i hope he does!
@blueydcp2478 жыл бұрын
+App Green I think though there is some room for haughtiness if you think about the line...why now why today? He doesn't want the responsibility/feelings he has like he says he just wanted to do his time and leave with what he had...Kim is almost a burden so there is still emotion in that too
