and 8 years later say hello to TONY award winning Alex Newell

[@terrikitiona4611]

I would love to see Alex along with Jennifer Holliday and Jennifer Hudson SANG!!! this song until my edges are bald........yaaaasss darling this is it!!!

[@josensei01]

Groundbreaking performance!!! Alex Newell has one of the best voices in the music scenario, and certainly deserves way more attetion from the mainstream media and music industry, since Glee is now over.

[@maxpower2542]

+Joatã Soares mainstream media won't touch him because he doesn't need auto tune and he actually has talent.

[@luiscalvent]

I totally fucking agree!

[@RPRosen-ki2fk]

Sometimes it does work out for those with TALENT. Alex has now won a Tony Award.

[@RachelSantiago816]

GOOSEBUMPS ON GOOSEBUMPS!!! YYYAAASSS, ALEX SAAAAAAAANG THAT!!!

[@theythem2244]

Amazing love Alex only discovered Alex thru zoeys extraordinary playlist and Alex is amaizng.

[@MrMcMusic01]

Somebody just go ahead and cast him in a Broadway revival of Dreamgirls and go ahead and give him the Tony NOW!

[@kamariforeman8007]

I'd love to see him play Effie!

[@WulfricBrianBlack]

They cast Amber Riley, and I personally think they're both just as amazing and they both can hit them A5's like goddesses.

[@jorgeguzmanm99]

MrMcMusic01 Amber Riley is now playing Effie on Broadway

[@MrMcMusic01]

Actually, Amber Riley is playing Effie in the London's West End

[@alicemullender1992]

His been cast on broadways dreamgirls 👌🏻

[@nethall3949]

Wow 😮 Alex you are absolutely amazing!!!!!!!!! Loved you on Glee and love your voice, everything about you bravo 👏

[@rafaella9700]

thats brad from glee in the piano!

[@ichimaruzero9697]

Yes, I see this omg

[@tyanahawkins5684]

what's funny is that this is essentially "light work" for Alex!

[@Cfelder0987]

It’s the pianist for me!!!!! ❤️❤️

[@victorives27]

I was hoping for that freaking awesome high note at the end that she did at the Glee Project

[@denisebrown5204]

omg.alex newell's vocal range is amazing.she is a bad b__ch.(meaning good in the slang way).

Alex killed this, with "fixed the hair" in note!!! YAAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!!!

[@Sttephy30]

He sang the fuck outta this song. Excellent performance.

Love your comment !

[@juniorsenarocha]

simplesmente perfeito! Nunca vi ninguém cantando essa musica tão bem assim além de Jennifer Hudson! Eu levantei pra aplaudir essa entidade, mesmo estando em casa sozinho!

[@r.junior970]

nossaaa, siiim puta que me pariu, muito booom

[@viniciushenrique1369]

Não sei se vc já viu ou não, mas eu te recomendo escutar a Jennifer Holliday cantando essa música. Ela é a Effie original e, na minha opinião, a melhor

[@lalagonegaga]

I am very convinced by this.

[@US30QUEEN]

ALEX THIS IS THE 2ND SONG YOU MADE ME TEAR UP AS YOU SHOULD

[@anname1111]

There have been recent auditions in Londons West End for a new production of the show... couldn't think of anyone better!!

[@maxpower2542]

Really, really talented. Wow!

[@jordangustavolemosgonzalez9833]

[@legal_beagle5294]

Good God Almighty, Jesus!! Wooo! Chile, he came fa edges, wigs and left me bald!!!

[@leophrix]

POWER!!!

[@christopherbatie5059]

This speaks to me as a gay man that other versions haven’t. Alex’s sensibilities bring something special. But of course they also deliver a great musical interpretation.

[@user-ek7vp6et4l]

The Piano Guy LOL

[@Ellascreations24]

Ima need Alex and amber to sing this together 👀🙂

[@islandeatssand684]

We all do sis, we all do. Lucky it’s still possible, since Alex has said in interviews that him and Amber are still friends

[@michaelsingslive]

WHEN I SAY YOU BETTAH!!! SAAANG NAH!! SAAAAAAAANNNGGG!!!

[@michaelsingslive]

sorry my country-fied self came out a little. LOL ....

[@benjaminorbe553]

BRADDDDD

[@orlandosoares7161]

❤️❤️❤️

[@vkali9245]

the piano was too loud and played too hard. the voice, fabulous!!!

[@SuperHurricane75]

Great vocals! This song is ment to have power behind it. Only Jennifer Holiday can belt it out.

[@chrisstoren1954]

SuperHurricane75 she can't these days. Not even in a lower key. Is rough asf the last few years

[@steveryan3589]

2:14 :O

[@aaries908]

Alex, go ahead and sang yo' face all the way off!!😆

[@fedefede6436]

Which key is it please??

[@tsmith9063]

I wish it was a little slower it would've been better

[@shawnswag5145]

He sang the top notes than Jennifer sings them

[@vhope00]

Much better version than the movie version

[@superstarq5585]

stop lieing lol

[@jamesscarborough6038]

He didn't channel nearly as much emotion as Jennifer Hudson.

[@monalefae]

James Scarborough oooor Jennifer Holiday! It was still pretty good!

[@inspirebymikaeli3502]

Not better than either Jennifer

[@darcelharmon]

You better go head and show all the way off!

[@darrensar4976]

this is better than amber rileys

[@reina2081]

I beg to differ. I like Amber Riley's version more than this one. Alex is still amazing though

[@franciscoavila36]

Darren Sar Have you heard Amber sing it while in character in the West End Production of Dreamgirls in London? It's Phenomenal!!

[@thxcain]

Alex is so much better.

[@ebonymckenzie1112]

all I got to say is when you started singing you said Jennifer Hudson go ahead and listen to this feel free to take notes but by the time you were done singing Jennifer Hudson who and to top that off I can tell you did not any strength left because you gave a hundred percent of yourself you lost yourself in the song and you love it #Talent

[@TEEMILL81]

Boy u berta sang it, girl sus whatever shit sang it.

[@Tony_Hardy]

Piano player was playing too fast

[@__________________________7455]

Take a seat Jennifer Hudson !!!

[@SuperHurricane75]

Bea Co no leave Hudson!

[@josephchavies9386]

no emotion, too calculated

[@MaleOrderBride]

🙄 can YOU do better?

[@chiboy3000]

Alex, you're talented, but please...take some singing lessons. Your placement is so bad.

[@SuperHurricane75]

TheMaleAvenger What do you mean? I need to know..I am a self-taught singer, and I need all of the knowledge.

[@islandeatssand684]

Not completely sure when this performance took place, but I’m pretty sure Alex hadn’t had any formal vocal training at that point in time.

[@chiboy3000]

@@islandeatssand684 He once said in an interview that he tried vocal lessons once, but he stopped taking them because he was no longer interested. And, his voice is suffering for it.

[@islandeatssand684]

@@chiboy3000 When was that interview? I don't really see how his voice is suffering for it, as you can see the improvement from some of his older performances.
