[@annearocho6707]

WHY IS IT THAT THE PART THAT HURT ME MOST WAS WHEN EVAN SAID "No mom who just was there cuz mom was all that she had to be" AND SMILED DOWN AT HIS FOOD BUT THEN LOOKED UP TO SEE NO MOM ON THE OTHER END OF THE TABLE TO EAT WITH

[@mangomomm]

yeaaah i did that on purpose to hurt people ;)

I love how you can hear the anxiety and emotion and self hatred and how overwhelmed he is in his voice so empathetically. This role was made for him. And your animatics are so beautiful, these bring me to tears.

[@mangomomm]

ben platt did so well with conveying the emotion in this song. and also thank you

[@cez_is_typing]

[@shadowolfyy]

Alexandra Brown I agree do much this.

[@reganodam9778]

very true!

[@juliangines6764]

Everyone goes crazy for "Waving through a Window," but, to me, this song exemplifies what the show is trying to convey. That, no matter how much you try and close yourself off, no matter how much you try to make something happen that's not there and doesn't exist in the first place, the only thing that's real is what you have; you're mom is there for you, even if she's always working. Don't close yourself off. Step into the sun and see what's true.

[@mangomomm]

yesss! that's why it's my favorite song from the musical

[@alexwilliams7544]

Julian Gines i agree, this is my favorite part of the show

[@OptimusPhillip]

I think what makes this work better than Waving Through a Window in terms of sadness is that Window is a bit more upbeat and energetic, with a bit more of Evan's anger at himself and the world. Words Fail is much more subdued, and is purely about grief and guilt.

[@ValeskaTAdams]

@OptimusPhillip That’s sooo true!

Larry: I'm not going to sit here and defend myself. Cynthia: He was *getting better*. Ask Evan. Tell him, Evan. (Evan freezes, the unmistakable sensation of his hands clamming up.) Evan: I shouldn't, um... Cynthia: Evan did everything he could. Larry: Evan was in denial of what was happening / right in front of him. Zoe: / Don't put him in the middle of this. Cynthia (going to the computer): Read the note, Larry. Read what he said. "I wish everything was different." / He wanted to be different. He wanted to be better. Larry: / I did the best I could. I tried to help him the only way I knew how, and if that's not good enough . . . Evan (overlapping them): No . . . No . . . No . . . Cynthia: He was trying to be better. He was trying. Larry: And he was *failing*. Cynthia: We failed *him*. (Evan can bear it no longer) Evan: No you didn't. (They rutn to look at him." Evan: You didn't fail him. Cynthia: Look at what he wrote . . . Evan: He didn't write that. (Long pause) Evan: I wrote it. (Silence.) Cynthia ( A ludicrous notion): You didn't write Connor's suicide note, Evan. Evan: It wasn't a . . . it was an assignment from my therapist. Write a letter to yourself. A pep talk. "Dear Evan Hansen: Today is going to be an amazing day, and here's why." Larry (Unable to make sense of this): I don't think . . . Evan: I was supposed to bring it to my appointment. Connor took it from me and I guess he must have had it with him when you . . . found him. Zoe: What are you talking about? Evan: We weren't friends. Cynthia: No, no, no. **Words Fail begins to play**

My favorite part about evan is his hair is so well put to together all the time and that may sound weird but I have diagnosed social anxiety disorder and my hair is really important to me. I always have a comb with me because I physically cannot handle my hair being out of place and when I obsessively brush it nobody gets it. I've had teachers take it away. I've had to defend myself to the school because a kid gently combing their part back into place disturbs the kids and teachers around them. Without it I have to hold something large enough so my nails can't dig into my skin and leave me bleeding. A teacher came over and asked the table if it disturbed them and one kid said yes. I said "this is my only good way to help myself. It's this, I pick my scabs, or I dig my nails into my skin. Make your choice." She let me keep it. How neat his hair is during the musical seems like such small but well placed representation, especially compared to the other characters

I will say this, I like how they had Evan admit what he did instead of someone else exposing him like we’ve seen in countless other liar revealed stories.

[@miathomas5205]

The emotion Ben put into this song, is honestly so moving. Mostly the line "Pretend im somthing other than this MESS that I am!" And "Cuz than I dont have to look at it, And NO ONE has to look at it!" Are just such powerful lines, you can tell he put his heart and soul into this song.

[@ryanlin6684]

i like the part when evan says “These Broken parts” because during when he says These he sounds like that he’s glitching just like a robot would do if they have broken parts it’s just a nice add of detail the musical puts

Anyone else have the type of anxiety that blanks your mind whenever you need to speak; even though you- to the point of obssession- ruminate on the right words to say, to sound lucid, eloquent, and just not stumble over your words or come off as insecure but then the moment you need to speak... you just get tongue tied anyways?

*Connor:* There are moments that the words don't reach There is suffering too terrible to name You hold your child as tight as you can And push away the unimaginable The moments when you're in so deep It feels easier to just swim down Evan, it's quiet uptown... do you like it uptown? *(he is going through the unimaginable)* If you see him in the street, walking by himself, talking by himself *(he is going through the unimaginable)*

[@Someone-jf8uw]

Nope, step into the sun means to be in the light, to be able to be seemed by other people and seemed by yourself, exposing and facing your true self, or something like that In Waving trought a window he wants to step out of the sun because he wants to run from face who he is, but in this song he wants to face himself, he wants to step in to the sun and face the truth overcoming his fears

Toto The Squid This song is more about Evan’s horrible self loathing, depression, and, buried within the lyrics are some suicidal thoughts It starts as an explanation to the Murphy’s and turns into a deep dive into his feelings about his life and his choices

[@etsymichael1514]

Exactly how I feel like why am I here just to disappoint everyone I love. Why am I such an embarrassment why is everyone better than I am. Why don’t I just fit in why can’t I ever feel normal without being insecure. Why am I crying about myself that’s just me being selfish. Most people have gone through worse things than I am feeling and I don’t deserve to cry. Everyone is working hard to keep me happy so why do I push everyone away. Why do I make people uncomfortable around me and why do people make me uncomfortable even when I want to get to know them. It’s just an ongoing cycle of hate and I’m done with it at this point. Something needs to change.

What if everyone knew? Would they like what they saw? Or would they hate it too? Will I just keep on running away from what's true? All I ever do is run So how do I step in Step into the sun?

When he's singing about wanting what was right there in front of him, my heart wrenched. I've gone through almost the same exact senario as Evan Hanson. I saw so many people happy... So many people taking advantage of the fact they had a family, one who wanted them. This is a masterpiece, a work of art. Thank you.

[@idk-tc4xy]

“No, I’d rather pretend I’m something better than these broken parts, pretend I’m something other than this mess that I am, cause then I don’t have to look at it, and no one gets to look at it.” This is my favorite part of the song. The emotion in it is so strong and I love it so much. This song in general, no this entire play, is AMAZING. Your art style is so pretty you are really good at expressing the emotions, keep up the great work!

[@manuelorozco7760]

It’s been two years since I saw the show. I was probably the only one who didn’t cry. Being sick with the common cold which is a rare thing that happens at the night at the theatre for me didn’t make enjoying DEH any easy. But I’m lucky to have got through it okay. And the more I see Evan being the Connor look alike, the more I like him better dressing in blue.

Ugh as someone who’s just now getting into this fandom (fight me I like didn’t even know abt this musical until everyone started hating on the movie recently and I finally listened to the soundtrack and fell in love so yeah anyways-) this animatic is just like absolutely perfect tbh.

I gotta say, Word's Fail was one of the best falling action songs i've seen in a musical. But I like tour animation "Now mom who was just there, cause mom was all she has to be."

so, it's an amazing song, a beautiful animatic, and is so heartbreaking. but personally, I think that the most impressive thing is that you kept Evan's hair parted the same direction in every frame

[@csmedley]

oh my gOd this is incredible. i haven't seen your other animatics but the expressions in this are wonderful. i almost started crying. hoooooooooo boy

[@mangomomm]

Gwyneth Smedley hoooo budy tHanks

[@rachelcoon6845]

What really breaks me is when he says "will they hate it too" which is implying that he hates what he is. He hates himself, and that just breaks me how one word can change so much

[@fishystickys]

This animatic brought out emotions I didn't even know I had

[@totallynotgay217]

I've been searching for an animatic for this since I saw the musical in person and I have finally found one. and it's perfect.

[@cookiekaspbrak1893]

*talking about the beginning of the musical* HE *flips table* SAID *shoves bookshelf over* HE DIDNT KNOW *breaks window* CONNOR *throws chair at wall* AND THEY SAID *beats the wall with said chair* HE WAS IN *breaks chair* SHOCK AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENED *jumps out broken window*

[@mangomomm]

[@Yams-Hams7734]

[@tiffanygreven4329]

[@sethikus7536]

SheSings what's the book

[@TheOzziemozzie]

[@jellyfish8164]

[@jennyjen3378]

When he said before I learned to slam on the breaks and before I leave with the worst of me , broke me

[@lindsay4647]

I was frickin crying so hard by the end of this. This is beautiful.

[@violvtriot7927]

This legit makes me cry.

[@leahstewart1742]

This is the closest to crying I’ve been in a long time. “I never let the see the worst of me! ‘Cause what if everyone saw? What if everyone knew? Would they like what they saw? Or would they hate it too?” That’s so deep. Jesus Christ.

[@catmoon5936]

I watched deh irl recently, and it hit so hard to hear evan hansen this sung irl

[@koritheartist3234]

This must have taken absolutely FOREVER to make. Good on you, mate.

[@elizabethjolly2942]

I love how you can hear that the singer is really into it. I love how you can see that the characters on the screen are into it. I love how you can feel that the artist is really into it. I love everything about this video!

[@lainiepicklesimer2067]

This is honestly one of the best songs in the whole musical! Can’t wait to see it this summer!

[@nevaehhhhvlobos]

Lucky I wish I could fly all the way to new York and watch it

[@messilymoonlit]

I relate to the lyrics and emotions conveyed by this song so much and I just end up sobbing everytime I hear it because, 1)it's such an emotional song sung so well and it just makes you feel for the characters 2) it conveys so well how I myself feel. So, thank you, for making this animation so well. Just- thank you. It shows all the emotions so well- and just, I really don't know what to say but, thank you! I'm sorry I'm such a mess but, thank you!!!

[@laughtress1136]

And you think... Everybody wants it... Needs it... A little bit, too. I cried there, you got me good

[@petrablack]

Wow, this is incredible. Enough said, my words are failing this is beautiful 😭💞💔

[@coolguyshawn9053]

This one hit me the most the mix of regret and sadness you can feel in his voice this hit way to close to home

[@ChemiWhemi]

This is so devastatingly relevant to how I feel.. “What if everyone saw, what if everyone knew? Would they like what they saw? Or would they hate it too...?” My heart shattered. I haven’t stepped into the sun yet..but maybe someday I will.

[@linabenz1366]

Chemical Comatose I'm sure you will! I'm currently trying to step into the sun myself. So good luck to you (:

[@lucysan123]

Ben Platt is so amazingly powerful with his voice. I've never cried listening to a song, but to his voice I shed a tear. Your drawings are amazing as well. They really convey all of the feelings and I love them. Keep up the amazing work!

[@elletz]

I love this so much! The feeling behind the song is portrayed wholeheartedly behind the animatic, and you have done an amazing and inspiring job! Thank you!

[@mangomomm]

thank you so much!!! :)

[@willowa6751]

This is insane. I'm literally about to cry, this is so beautiful. You can see how overwhelmed he is just in how you've drawn him and how it compliments his voice. Please continue to draw, you have so much talent.

[@0lapislazuli0_10]

This absolutely beautiful. This animation I feel perfectly captures the emotion in this song. It's so wonderfully done thank you for posting this. I'm totally not like crying super hard or anything pfftp no way. Great job my dude

[@karmalapples5942]

How can so many songs in a musical consistently bring me to tears EVERY TIME I listen to them? I was just thinking about one of the songs at work today and trying not to cry

[@milanaracelis1940]

This animatic makes me feel bad for poor Evan. But we all gotta be honest it was not cool to lie about a dead kid to their family and use your friends to help you build your throne of lies. Edit: but I can understand him

[@leighabrummett7470]

Your use of colors are so amazing. People overlook colors all the time but they honestly make a video. The way the blue faded as the song went on and the bright splashed of pale yellow in the phone to and doorway. Then the dark smudged blue of the people around him. It was perfect and absolutely beautiful

[@Fruitpatch]

Words Fail to express how good this is.

[@brendanmiron1444]

It's impossible to not cry to this. I even prepared by watching vine compilations for an hour and listened to this and bam

[@elle4873]

I honestly just starting sobbing at less then a minute of this song playing because you can just feel the pain and relate to him and everything he sings about and honestly I love this musical and song and your animation is really beautiful

[@lauriebarber9011]

i aDORE YOUR ART STYLE. the characters are all so unique and distinct, and everything is so flowing and loose,, it's just so GORGEOUS??? this might be my favorite DEH animatic ive ever seen

[@mangomomm]

[@lauriebarber9011]

mangomomm you deserve it pal

[@TheShalkMaster]
