i saw you in this production and i'm delighted to have stumbled upon you again, i remember really liking your performance (and your rendition is once again giving me Emotions)

[@henrythrasher5813]

Aww, thank you so much! That really means a lot to hear! :)

What a wonderful performance of a beautiful song! It's hard to describe, but I love how in the beginning, your voice has a youthful sound, almost like Pierre is a child or a younger more naive man, and as the song goes on, the tone and pitch change, and you can feel the weight of the world, pressing down on him, as he begins to come to terms with reality. It's a semi-subtle change, and it's marvelously done!
