OBSESSED!: A Step Down From Patti is Where You'll Find Tituss Burgess

[@HikariDragonRyuu]

Obsessed with the brief few seconds of him visibly finding his placement on the final note.

[@themarienette8810]

came back to this vid just for that

[@juliagcharlotte4]

So thrilled for him with the success of Kimmy Schmidt! He deserves the Emmy nod.

[@DuhAverageJoe]

I'm obsessed with his resonance!

[@ronnimcallister3970]

I want to hear him sing Defying Gravity

[@knittingdoula]

I've watched so many of the Obsessed videos, and yet Titus is the only one whose voice made me cry from sheer beauty and emotional expression. So glad he's now with Kimmy Schmidt.

[@SethTV]

"He's now with Kimmy Schmidt" sounds like he's dead ("He's with the angels now...")!!!!!

PEENOOOOO NOIRRRRRRR

[@liltre352]

This man hit an E5 like it's my C3 .lol. #Beast

[@gpmcd1044]

I just love you Tituss.

[@tihgger7466]

No man better than Tituss. I am obsessed too.

[@ChristineThomasOMeally]

I'm performing with him and Patti Lupone this Sunday at the Washington National Opera Gala at the Kennedy Center (in the chorus). I'm the luckiest person in the world. :D (But we've been told not to approach the talent for selfies or autographs)

[@MrBenBarzilai]

Steve from Blues Clues!

[@hannahrosereviews5073]

What? No! Lol!

[@astrowiz3544]

LOL he does look like Steve here with the striped shirt

[@hannahrosereviews5073]

I love him on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt!

[@ilovethebroadway]

"my beauty-ful young man" his voice is so beauty-ful.

[@chevydude658]

This joker is a BEAST!!!!!!! And he's hilarious on 30 Rock and Unbreakable.

[@znmnky13]

I know I'm late, but I'm so glad he messed that up so we could hear him repeat that note! OMG

[@broadwaymaniac92]

he's so adorable!! and that VOICE!!!! OMG!

[@MissyJNightSwan69]

I love Tituss! His voice is incredible and he has such a killer smile.

[@soophhiaa9944]

Why is he so amazing

[@leftbankcreative]

It’s literally one of the best things I’ve ever heard. Ever.

[@leftbankcreative]

I’ve fallen down the rabbit hole. I’ve watched 6 or so versions of Meadowlark... this voice is by far the best; moving, rich completely thrilling!

[@leftbankcreative]

And Seth getting bitchy about “bind” when it’s really blind. Lolz!!!!

[@leftbankcreative]

Also, Seth makes me want to learn piano!

[@zacharylavender1568]

I love his voice!

[@ImaginaryMdA]

His voice is SO FREAKING GOOD!

[@benjiakre-hill5961]

I can never watch Tituss in a show. The intensity of my sobbing will give me a migraine. LOVE YOU YOU BEAUTIFUL MAN!

[@marycrosby8317]

I’m obsessed as well!

[@liandyogi]

Watched Tituss on Netflix’s Set It Up recently and was surprised to find him here but oh what a voice!

[@MatSwim94]

that "MAAAAAN" in "my beautiful young man" echoed for like a second after he closed his mouth #resonance

[@patrickhicks9880]

i'd like to hear him sing the winner takes it all

[@jimakosdimitri]

That eye roll after “away” tho

[@2000wattz]

Tituss is so relatable in this clip!

[@defygravity89]

@nrsigman he did a concert of it in 2007 that I had the fortune of seeing and he was BRILLIANT. utterly and completely brilliant.

[@corinnanuqui8953]

this is such good medicine in the middle of this pandemic.

[@WerdnaNiraehs]

Love that Seth told him the wrong lyric after Titus kept messing it up. It’s “blind” not “bind” 😂

[@d.e.t4147]

I adore Titus. ❤️

[@HikariDragonRyuu]

It's a chest dominant mix.

[@khamikins]

i LOVE YOU BOTH Tituss and Seth!

[@duranddavis7710]

Brother Brilliant.

[@ZacharyBlaszak]

@nrsigman I was told by my best friend to sing some of the songs from that show.... I have yet to do it. but I love it!

[@nataliebordwell6440]

I would actually die for Titus

[@tihgger7466]

Sing to me Tituss...and everyone

[@dancemiss]

I love Titus

[@derogatony]

I want this in the original key. kthnx.

[@rebeccahopkins9522]

I feel like Seth is the real life version of Titus... Andromedon that is 🤣

[@maniactress]

pure pure gold.

[@davidwh2653]

it's actually "blind me"

[@mich-l]

"I've HAD it! I mean I'm obsessed..."

[@enc897]

I can't like enough! xoxoxoxo

[@michellelambe4845]

He mentioned Maspeth!!!! I didn’t know that it was known. I’m shook. ( it couldn’t have been though bc we don’t even have a subway line.)

[@HairMakeupAndMusic]

That is his belt voice.

[@LaisaLeroy]

holy crap that was amazing

[@tihgger7466]

Tituss touches my soul...I love him

[@johnnycuff4647]

higher voices arent better than low its just whats natural to you

[@Popzizeh22]

Johnny Cuff it sure impresses a hell of a lot more though, unless you can sing super low. Both are wonderful but high voices aaaaaare often particularly preferable

[@kareemabdelhakam3640]

_poppyrobin_ amen

[@amak7663]

The fact that his name is actually Titus

[@beccasouthwick]

Mik K literally

[@johnamante756]

I literally thought the lyric was blind AHAHAHAHAHHAA

[@bombasticmon]

Holy SHIT. OBSESSED!!!!!!!

[@Pilly1112]

GOLD!

[@JoshFreilich]

I think he did once... And he was amazing.

[@simsimmabeatzssb1587]

damn i wish i could sing

[@EmilyDeanemilily88]

It’s so crazy to see him not in character as Titus Andromedon!

[@queenofpentacles11]

MAGIC

[@mario02423]

This isn't even a half step down from Patti's recording... It's the same key!

[@juliancomeau2732]

I'd say it's a mix.

[@simsimmabeatzssb1587]

how long has this guy been playing piano? My Lord

[@iheartwicked91]

Sebastian!

[@khamikins]

full

[@GarrellWoods]

I know what you mean.

[@melisaez]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@normanbonk8064]

❤❤❤

[@Jcontardo]

Isn't it "Before my past once again can *BLIND* me" ?

[@edkline6401]

yes it is.

[@SuperHurricane75]

he sounds great! I didn't like him singing "And I am Telling You".

[@matthewcobain7278]

Does anyone know the key of this?

[@KajiVocals]

Sounds like F-sharp minor, but I might be wrong.

[@theRubyRunner]

3:13

[@bingumsbongums]

When he hits those notes, is that his full voice or is it his head voice?

[@ruby7226]

Kale Dotson it sounds fuller

[@KajiVocals]

He's a belter.

[@miaacuri]

When i was a girl l i had a favorite story Of the meadowlark who lived where the rivers wind Her voice could match the angels' in its glory But she was blind, the lark was blind An old king came and took her to his palace Where the walls were burnished bronze and golden braid And he fed her fruit and nuts from an ivory chalice And he prayed: "Sing for me, my meadowlark, Sing for me of the silver morning, Set me free, my meadowlark, And i'll buy you a priceless jewel And cloth of brocade and crewel And i'll love you for life, If you will sing for me." Then one day as the lark sang by the water The god of the sun heard her in his flight And her singing moved him so He came and brought her the gift of sight He gave her sight And she opened her eyes to the shimmer and the splendor Of this beautiful, young god, so proud and strong And he called to the lark in a voice both rough and tender "Come along. Fly with me, my meadowlark, Fly with me on the silver morning, Past the sea where the dolphins bark We will dance on the coral beaches, Make a feast of the plums and peaches Just as far as your vision reaches Fly with me." But the meadowlark said no For the old king loved her so She couldn't bear to wound his pride So the sun god flew away And when the king came down that day He found his meadowlark had died Every time i heard that part i cried ... And now i stand here starry-eyed and stormy Oh, just when i thought my heart was finally numb A beautiful, young man appears before me, Singing "come, oh, won't you come?" And what can i do if finally for the first time The one i'm burning for returns the glow? If love has come at last it's picked the worst time Still i know I've got to go Fly away, meadowlark Fly away in the silver morning, If i stay, i'll grow to curse the dark So it's off where the days won't bind me I know i leave wounds behind me But i won't let tomorrow find me Back this way Before my past once again can blind me Fly away ... And we won't wait To say good-bye My beautiful young man And i.

[@msscott73]

that is one sanging man.

[@Blendre]

I love Tituss and Seth but hate that song.

[@Britafilta]

The white guy sounds like such a haterrrr

[@barbraseville8984]

Naw. No hate. He is genuinely a fan of these artists
