[@jenng7389]

The Tinman's rendition of What Would I Do is heart wrenching. I've listened to that segment countless times already

[@tierajones8241]

That was my favorite song ❤❤❤

[@andresingz2.0]

The best

[@naturalbby1722]

His voice is so raw and beautiful

[@Kwedjatey]

Agreed. So moving 🥹🫶🏽

[@78vette11]

These aren’t singers. These are sangers. It was so much fun watching this episode of Tiny Desk. They seemed to enjoy themselves. Avery and his legendary runs. Excellent analysis as always

[@vocalbooth8585]

Love how settled and comfortable the first vocalist is. I think one of the gifts of truly amazing vocalists is to make the listener completely confident that they are secure and in control of everything they are singing. 👏

[@KultivateWitKah]

That part

[@KultivateWitKah]

Emoting at its finest and she did just that my gawd

[@PerryFamily-xb7cr]

She was a m a z i n g in person. Her voice filled the whole theater.

[@jasibae00]

Yes chile I cried like a baby..her voice is angelic. I imagined my mom singing this to me😢

[@joannapilgrim]

This tiny desk was POWERFUL from start to finish!! Thick belting in the first song, then the wizard's voice; I really enjoyed the dynamics he displayed, of course Avery showed off his range. The Tin Man was smooth and sweet and the Lion's growls were well placed among his range of notes. Then when Dorthy composed herself and channeled her emotions into her delivery drew me ALL the way in. She made me want to know why her tears were flowing, where is home for her and which lyrics resonated most with her and why. The musicians were fantastic, too!! This was a wonderful display of talent. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@cutieerica]

I cried the first time I watched Dorthy when she got filled up. I enjoyed this tiny desk! I grew up on the Wiz.

[@MelodyABetts]

Also, fyi, in regards to the moment with Nichelle. Her mother was in the room, standing right in front of her when she began to sing “Home”. So if you could just imagine what that may have been like…she was thinking of the meaning of the song and “home” was there, standing right in front of her…it made her emotional. 🥲

[@BA-dev]

"What Would I do" has been on repeat since I saw him sing it here! I love how delicate he sang the song in the beginning!

[@jaylababi111]

12:02 Ummmm Excuse me Jaron you blessed me!!!! 🙌🏽

[@trupoetess]

I just came back from New York on Saturday with my sister seeing The Wiz! It was one of THE BEST productions I've ever seen! Phenomenal cast! Loved it! ❤

[@tiaracobbins-ci2ms]

I HAD THE SAME REACTION TO THE LIONS LAST RUN!!!! SCREAMING 😂😂

[@naturalbby1722]

He’s amazing

[@MelodyABetts]

Thank you so much for this…and I LOVE YOU RIGHT BACK!❤

[@KevinETaylor]

Amazing! They are all so amazing!!! Nichelle. Avery. Kyle. Phil. And that blessed MELODY A. BETTS ❤❤❤❤

[@Linknla]

Yaaaaaaas Bet on Betts!!!!! Yaaaaas she sang omg!

[@Desmondtydore]

I Was Hoping That You Were Going To Analyze This Video 👏🏾👏🏾

[@lyndavialet]

Me too

[@sbingham1979]

Love your enthusiasm and all the little details you point out.

[@micki20748]

This cast was absolutely incredible. I have followed and loved Avery for years. I'm so glad he's getting this exposure so others can enjoy

[@joannapilgrim]

I think if and when a performer is nervous, he/she actually cares about the performance 😊

[@joannapilgrim]

Broadway singers are in a different class 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

[@iitsNiickyDuh]

Phil. Sings with a smile and I just melt 🥹🥰😍❤❤❤

[@GustavoNFim]

Man, this cast is so freaking talented!! DAMN! I've been a fan of Avery for some good years now, and I've seen him sanging his way, always kinda ending up distinguishing himself from w/e singing crowd he's in, but THIS CAST is SO GOOD that he ends up being just one more amazing singer!

[@rockae85]

She had me crying too!!!! Cant wait to see this in 2025!

[@christinecollierruiz6632]

I was WAITING for you to cover this as soon as I watched this! Can’t wait to receive my vinyl album! I’ve seen it twice!

[@iamc4mii]

19:47 OOOH lord I almost started crying with her LOOORD this song is so emotional for me as well AND when she said she was nervous...UGH! as a singer with anxiety it HIT! 22:08 23:04 YUP! that's why I hate when people point out imperfections in a performance. the whole reason they're so nervous to perform in the first place is because they know people will harp and make fun of those things and disregard everything else about the performance you may have did well.

[@ThisIsJ.Nicole]

The mama's song at the beginning of The Wiz is highly underrated. This lady did amazing. Avery be running for his life. MJ's version will forever have my heart but knowing I've seen Avery live and new and now he's here. So glad to see him getting recognized because this is a big ole deal. The brokenness I hear in the Tinman's voice, hit me in my core. Reminds me of Donny Hathaway and he slightly favors Nipsey Russel. I love it. Lion betta c'mon and emote and growl. He owned every bit of that. Seeing this young lady tear up before singing 'Home'...🥹. Its such a precious moment.

[@thinkitnotstrange]

Her emotion singing of Home was great. The song is about her missing home, so though may have not been done purposely, it fits.

[@michelecherek5392]

As a lady whose performed in musicals, i FEEEEEEEELLL those emotions Nichelle had!!! I KNOW having that isnso human, ERRBODY AND THEIR MAMA FEEEEEELL it!!! I dont know her from a box of rocks, but being the young her, and now being the mature Evilene voice, I EMBRACE HER!!! SHE GOT THIS!!!❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥 I am SO GRATEFUL that young people STILL want real music, not just digitally produced kinds!! Id be the one hollering, "It's ok, baby, you GOT this!"❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥 And its EVEN MORE LOVELY that the musicians FOLLOW HER LEAD!! Powerhouse or docile, they backed you to thee UTMOST!! JARON??? To YOU, id LOVE to send you a video of me singing for your analysis!! I LOVE your channel! THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!!💖💖💖💖💖🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂🫂

[@teyjames]

[@ericablige9449]

[@glenndb9646]

[@jmlegrairstudio]

[@sebarm9671]

[@sbest6565]

Aww, You left out my favorite part! So You Wanted To the Wizard! Dang!

[@Driger1792]

I absolutely LOVE your channel. My twin brother showed me your Muses coverage from Hercules. I would love to see you cover all of Jack Skellington's songs in the Disney Movie Nightmare Before Christmas.

[@mikaljenboo6026]

You should do the 2015 wiz too!

[@tajlondon3492]

i really think the moment was nerves but i really believe it was the connection to the lyrics

[@melaninmagicbymika1087]

I’ve been waiting on you to do this performance since I saw it!! I was on my family vacation the past 3 days so I’m late but 🗣️BABEEEEEEEE! 🤌🏾Thank you Mr. Jaron 🤎

[@brandyspain7125]

Got a chance to see this at The Fox/ATL. As a huge Wiz Fan I love this iteration.

[@gretchenbray2268]

These are true singers!

[@tylerhackner9731]

This was amazing

[@dreamergirlbaby]

The soundtrack has been on REPEAT in my house ever since I discovered this

[@lisaosario5294]

Great analysis Jaron her voice is strong n controlled .My cousin I can’t reveal his name he was one of the make up artist for this cast.

[@Kidbthumbs]

I can't wait for you to see more of Melody So I can pester you to do more analyses of her!!

[@lyndavialet]

OMG chills 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@roncave994]

I felt her Humanity the vulnerability the preciousness and importance of the song the build-up to the song the slow music it was precious and it was important so I agree with you

[@Linknla]

Melody Betts!!! YESSSSIR!

[@myopinion6748]

I saw The Wiz recently on broadway and when I tell you Avery tore up the place!!!!!! It wasn’t even just the insane singing but it was the dancing and performance. I was completely entranced by the entire play

[@ajwriter5699]

Michele Lewis is a FORCE! Whew!! 🤯🤯🤯 Avery is my husband in my head. 😍😍😍 He could sing the Draino jingle to me for all I care.

[@melaninmagicbymika1087]

I told my mama he could sing the ingredients on the back of a cake box and I’d STILL be in love 🥰🤎😂

[@michelecherek5392]

MJ WOULD BE PROUD OF AVERY WILSON!!❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥🎶❤️‍🔥

[@roncave994]

I am ao glad you are analyzing and Breaking Down The Wiz!!!❤❤❤❤❤ by far The Wiz tiny dest performance was one of the best performance I've seen next to SWV and Chaka Khan and Usher's performance for the 2024 year

[@LooseAsADEUCE]

Watching this made me want to see the musical on stage so bad. I'm broke though so I had to settle for the album 😅

[@songboi84]

[@KathyLaymon]

Glad you analyzed this video. Would you ever analyze If I ever fall in love again by Shai?

[@KalderAhm]

20:47 thank you for explaining this bc I didn’t understand what was happening. I thought it was another musical theatre actor being over dramatic

[@22viewutube]

I have two requests, Nell Carter and Avery Wilson. If I get to choose Broadway and Meet Me on the Moon.

[@kyleneuendorf4324]
