Just before his first performance as Huey Calhoun in Memphis, Adam Pascal joined the show's Tony-winning composer David Bryan for a very personal performance of "Memphis Lives in Me." As Bryan recently told Broadway.com, he and Pascal share a rock sensibility (Bryan as a member of Bon Jovi; Pascal as a vet of Rent and solo recording artist), and the two are obviously feeling simpatico about Pascal's Broadway return in Bryan's long-running hit.

HIS VOICE IS A GIFT FROM GOD

[@broadwhy]

I saw it last week... Adam is the best I've seen in my life

[@taylortkg]

He is absolutely incredible. I saw him on tv a few weeks ago, then went to see Memphis last night. Sent chills through the audience. and he graduated from the high school next to mine =)

[@KatieQueener]

This is all I've ever wanted in life! Adam Pascal is just an amazing performer.

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey 🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@BeccaD79]

I was lucky enough to see him and Anthony from the front row in 2009 during the Rent tour. Still can't believe it. I love listening to him sing this song!

[@PolyBiBadger]

becca d I'm so jealous!

[@NCISgirl240]

I saw him when I went to New York with my school band for competition adn I had no voice the next day because I had cheered for him so loudly. He's just, amazing

[@bobgarrett3367]

The best! No one compares with Adam P. from Rent to Aida to Memphis et al .. Bravo!

[@ralekiam]

There's a town that I call home Where all the streets are paved with soul. Down on Beale, there's a honkey-tonk bar, Hear the wail of a blues guitar, Have a beer and drop a dime In a blindman's jar. The blues sing softly in the air, Like a Sunday morning prayer- Just one more drink and you'll see God everywhere. Like a sad old melody- Tears you up but sets you free- That's how Memphis lives in me. There comes a time when muddy waters run rough. There comes a point when a man has had enough. Like a friend who always stands by me, Memphis knows me, Memphis shows me How this life just has to be. I couldn't even try to run away, say goodbye. Here I was born, and here is where I'll die. Just a man from Tennessee can't be what I can't be All I know is Memphis lives in me. Whoa! There comes a time when muddy waters run rough. There comes a point when a man has had enough. Like a friend who always stands by me, Memphis knows me, Memphis shows me How this life just has to be I couldn't even try to run away, say goodbye Here I was born and here is where I'll die! Just a man from Tennessee, can't be what I can't be All I know is Memphis lives, all I know is Memphis gives, All I know is Memphis lives in me!

[@Echizen5004]

saw him 2 days ago... LOVE HIS VOICE! ^^ I really wanna c memphis again... he made it worth while to c and i was 3rd row so it was up close too! Soo much fun! can't wait to c what else he does in the future!

[@amandarussell4158]

Such an amazing voice! Wow

[@justflybyFAIRYGIRL]

hes so amazing he gives me chills when he sings this song

[@vildeelen]

Adam Pascal is one of my favourite man-singers! :) I really love his voice.. My dream would really be to sing with him.. Keep up the good work, Adam! I love your work

[@midgiepox2668]

Unf...He's just.....wow.....I have no words for this man......He blows me away!

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@JTROCKAA12]

There's something so brilliant about songs that are just the singer and one instrument. It's so simple yet so effective. On another note, that's a fucking D above the staff that Adam is hitting with his chest or mix. That's fucking awesome. We've heard him hit the C and D flat in Pity the Child #2 but this tops it.

[@SydneyDameron]

There are not words to describe how much I love this man.

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@TheaterPup]

Just saw Adam perform this tonight in NYC. Incredible! 😀

[@TheJMusicChannel]

I saw him play Huey in June. He was incredible. He made me laugh so hard that I cried, he sang so perfectly that I cried...he made me cry a lot XD

[@terriburton4636]

i have watched Adam sing this about 500 times, one of my all time favourites

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@scottishclaire1985]

We saw him Nov 4th and he was absolutely amazing. We had no idea he was so new to the role at the time so it just goes to show.

[@ChristopherCherry02]

I LOVE ADAM PASCAL

[@17Mccants]

I LOVE LOVE LOVE his voice...I loved him in RENT. I mean. When I have my hit play, I'm going to come find him.

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@JaronBog]

the whole point of theatre is it allows other people to play the character. That's why I love it, and I hate when people try to compare people who have played the same roles. They are 2 different actors playing the same role. But how can you judge who was better, acting is so subjective that I honestly don't know how you can compare the two. They are both great, plan and simple.

[@TigerPrawn_]

Brilliant & on every note, but I love Chad's live one, it's so much more raw.

[@skyelockhart3211]

i agree it's just beautiful. i was never a big fan of plays or musicals. well i just took a class and I'm enchanted. i watched Chad's pereformance and fell in love. then I went to broadway and watched Fiddler On The Roof, Le Miserable, and The Crucible it was amazing but nothing beats chad singing this song.

[@PolyBiBadger]

cx45830 I agree. I absolutely love both Chad and Adam's performance of this song but I love Chad's version more.

[@KeirstynSecord]

I am absolutely in love with this song. Adam singing it is just the icing on the cake.

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@ActorsWithIssuespodcast]

He was absolutely phenomenal when I saw him in January. He and Montego had such chemistry onstage and his voice just rang through the theatre. We were 6th row from the stage, and he was just so emotional in every aspect. Great performer

[@MeganDelamarTV]

It comes so effortless to him.

[@jlyfan]

I saw Adam last night and loved him. I really enjoyed his interpretation more than Chad's and I can't wait to see him again.

[@thelivesofme1]

seriously though, he is more amazing than everr. what a star voice, bravo adamm

[@genie475]

Just saw him yesterday in this while I was in New York. It was amazing. I had no idea he was so talented until i saw this.

[@minimonberg34]

I Still Think That David Bryan Version On "Memphis Lives In Me" Is The Best Version :)

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@cdpadancer1]

He is absolutely incredible! Way better than the original. I just saw him this past weekend in Memphis. His passion is unbeatable.

[@davidbryan1532]

@Ellen Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@sundayakpan2663]

Loving this guy's voice for this video

[@aladdinsane7882]

David Bryan is the real deal.

[@xJordanxox]

he's amazing

[@KarlieStarrSings]

Tears... Nothing but tears :)

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@GeorgeTorresGP]

David Bryan from Bon Jovi + Adam Pascal = PERFECTION

[@xxbroadwayfreakxx]

i'm LOVING adam in this role!

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@UncannyCasey]

He's in my comicbook. I grew up loving Adam. Been by his side since I was 12. I'm 25. Still adore him.

[@HazelJessiman]

His vocal ability is just staggering. His version of this song has so much more depth than the original Huey.It's a crime that Pascal doesn't do the soundtrack version.

[@justflybyFAIRYGIRL]

gives me chills!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gramps2matt]

Adam Pascal!!! Words can't describe how incredible he ALWAYS is!! Missed seeing him in Detroit with Anthony Rapp in the final tour of RENT so coughed up the bucks and went to see it when the tour hit Cinncinatti later. Best money I've ever spent!!

[@JudgeJack93]

Adam Pascal is amazing.. School of Rock!!

[@insanesanta278]

I would give, literally, anything to just have a beer with this man, let alone to be able to sing half as well as he can.

[@CozyLilLo]

Adam Pascal how are you so perfect

[@KKkutie13]

adam pascal was fantastic in this role. such a talent.

[@0430songbird]

Can't wait to see!!!!!!!!!!!!!!especially Adam

[@wwejohncenafan77]

His voice is just so amazing!!!!!!-3

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@JoshFreilich]

Best version of the song ever! And Nice Queen shirt, too!

[@arun_swang]

I love this song.

[@JCChester99]

Beautiful!

[@blancamontoya1326]

I cannot imagine this song without the Chad's voice. He created the character after all

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@spholty]

I love how he is so cool and laid back, kinda like he's saying, "Hey composer/pianist, I'm gonna just stand here, hands in my pockets, and sing this song. No biggie, I can't help bring do effortless and awesome. Hey, you want to grab a burger latter or something? Cool. Wait, I'm gonna rock this high note now."

[@toes421]

LOVE YOU ADAM!

[@jcthefluteman]

Incredible.

[@broadwhy]

This is the best version ever of this song

[@spholty]

So excellent.

[@pinkglam1311]

I can't wait to see him!!!

[@briansounalath]

Man he’s the best

[@kitsolo7815]

Adam is so perfectttt

[@shannongurl992]

I've gone back and forth listening to this and Chad's version and I like them both a lot! They perform it with their own spin...Chad's more blusey and Adam's more hard edged and shows off his crazy range. They're both REALLY good.

[@Dontstopthemusic54]

Thank you Adam!

[@melodypudding]

LOVE ADAM SO MUCH!! HIW I HOPE TO WATCH YOU IN MEMPHIS THE MUSICAL

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@Michael.Quinichett]

He sounds SO good.

[@BarbaraAllanTilton]

That was a treat

[@kbcutie101]

chad is huey. Huey used to be just a name on a script, but them chad came in and brought him to life. the funny, the meaningful, the goofy, all of it. and especially the voice. when Adam played Huey, to me, and I'm sure many others, it's was literally Rodger with a country accent. some people were born to bring different characters to life. for chad, it was Huey, and for Adam it was Rodger. it's just a fact of life. I'm definitely team chad when it comes to Huey. he just embodies the real Huey.

[@Mamyjo66]

Wow! Amazingly beautiful ;)

[@muskoka1720]

saw him with Montego and they were great, the role he was born to play

[@mskphoto1234]

Incredible. That is all I have to say about this.

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@lizhavelec7212]

❤ love it

[@broadwaymike92]

Just came back from the show! Adam was amazing! Sad thing is he didn't come out the Stage Door after the show!

[@masterslayersp]

he makes the craziest high notes just seem completely effortless.

[@senjurosbj]

great!

[@Larsiscool88]

saw this Musical.. worth seeing/ :D twice!!!

[@sndlp1]

❤️❤️❤️

[@Samsamsam110]

I saw the show back in January, and Adam Pascal wasn't there. His understudy filled the role but I thought he was pretty good, and besides, I didn't know who this Adam Pascal guy was anyway. Recently I got really into RENT and now I'm mad that I missed seeing him live in this show.

[@TravelwithTasha393]

darn I wish this musical would come back 2 Broadway

[@reader1001]

This is AMAZING! I'm sure that Adam will be incredible in this! I can't wait to buy the tickets-I'm definitely saving up so I can go and I KNOW it will be worth it. While Chad originated this role, he had to step down because of health issues. He was not forced to, and the show must go on, so Adam is now taking over his role as Huey. Someone had to do it, and I'm so glad that it was Adam.

[@quack10]

WOW

[@keith6868]

His tone is amazing

[@NoudMartens1992]

He sings this song so easily.

[@OrnellaLaFerraro]

adam I love U

[@davidbryan1532]

@ornella Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@crazygirl97]

okay, if he is in it I will see the show.

[@DimbleDuck]

I adore this man lol.

[@lindelcan]

You can't compare this to Chad. When you hear Chad, he IS Huey and you feel the passion. Here, Adam is just singing the song. Maybe when when you hear him on stage as Huey, you can feel it too. I don't know...haven't seen him. I'm just hopin' Chad will be back before my next trip to New York.

[@davidbryan1532]

Hey🌹, all love and how are you doing today?

[@lindelcan]

@tominnyc1 It's good to read your reply and I agree. He's made the role his own and that is good. But it irks me when people try and tell us that it is better than Chad's when he has developed it for so many years...different, excellent, maybe...but not better. I think your last sentence is the key...it's the show that touches our hearts the most. We can't forget the other excellent actors on stage with whoever Huey is...they are all part of the wonderful experience.

[@ThainLimb]

yes, he composed this musical

[@kmb1023x]

@lindelcan OH MY GOSH! THANK YOU!! i didnt know they had a dvd of the show!!! thank you im going to ask for it for christmas now!!! yes i really hope chad can come back and im sure adam will be awesome anyways. merp i hate arrogant people : /

[@Tricheystudios]

High D! FUCK YEAH!

[@gogo245]

OMG....... :( Great run guys!!!

[@samanthamyu]

it'll be hard to picture anyone else as Huey other than Chad because he originated the role, just like how it's hard to picture anyone else but Adam as Roger Davis; doesn't mean they're any better or worse than the other, it simply means they're different people and bring different sides to Huey

[@lindelcan]

@tominnyc1 "Radio" The photography and choreography were great. I'll stop there...you know my feelings.

[@gabekillian2761]

I was lucky to see him in the Something Rotten tour

[@siennagrace4472]

gabe killian he is amazing. I love his voice.

[@coolness06]

Holy crap! That D was insane!

[@defyinggravity319]

@mmantlefan7 Adam Pascal does come out! He came out after the December 28th evening show. I guess it just depends on how he's feeling after the show!

[@Matthewgreen7779311]

nice.

[@LukemccabeUk]

David Bryan is some fucking good pianist omg

[@defyinggravity319]

@xxSHAE96xx I have no idea about matinees. Hopefully he will come out for your show!

[@dbgons84]

nice!

[@mmantlefan7]

@defyinggravity - Pascal told my daughters at one of his concerts years ago in Charlotte NC (he was signing a CD for them) that he stopped going out to the stage door because of some "scary" experiences during Rent. I believe he even wrote a song about "fans" who think that he was really the "character" he played in Rent. It seems he has changed his mind and glad to hear it.

[@CliffRichardFan2001]

Adam!!! So amazing! If I were thirty years older, I'd try to date him.

[@AventuraLuver]

lol are you 15?

[@CliffRichardFan2001]

+Marla Singer Yes
