Alex Brightman (with Jay Armstrong Johnson & Emily Hughes) - "Cut You A Piece"

[@MilkyWayGrump]

This man is currently in a musical where some of his lines include "Each show, I do a ton of coke here" and "Give it up for my underaged bride". Talk about range.

[@matilde_5]

wAIT, THAT’S HIM?-

[@amiirue]

Well in this musical he does talk about a choking orgy so

[@Teudlanif]

@@amiirue and murder-

[@Howdyheyimokay]

Crack theory time : is Beetlejuice actually Jules in the afterlife‼️ 😱

[@icomeandgobybubble87]

Yep ​@@matilde_5

[@ItsLukeTheRose]

I don't know why ... but the part that get's me is the dying fall right before the chorus, "Jules told Jessie, he'd die for her. Which looking back ... was the right thing to say"

[@tumblingartist]

0:52 it really does strike directly into my heart- something about that line is just so emotionally impactful

[@ApparentlyMe]

The tears started at "But warming your hands in mine fills me with terror" because I know all too well this feeling.

[@ladywilgrim]

In the decade I've been listening to this song, I don't think there's a single time I haven't cried.

[@sondersighs]

Oh my goodness he looks so different from now. In a good way though, he is always handsome to me no matter what he looks like.

[@tovatojuice]

the way that one note from the piano melody is missing after “...and soon was her ash” is so beautiful and so damn sad oh my god

[@cwispygiraffe]

i noticed that too! i love it

[@cwispygiraffe]

i love musical symbolism

[@Scooblique]

Alex has such an incredible talent for both singing and acting everything him/his character feels... I love him so much. He deserves everything he has and more

[@briannapadgett6041]

Glad to know I’m not the only one watching all of his past stuff

[@Dead-or-Alive1985]

Not me sobbing when Alex turns away to try to stop himself from crying

[@wickedly4]

he reeeeally emoted this piece... wow. breathtaking.

[@TinyTink006]

I've watched this ten times and I still cannot believe this is Alex Brightman. HE'S BABIE!!!!!! 🥺♥️

[@MsEmpregetes]

Oh my god he's baby

[@GraceVarela]

Ugh his voice is so prefect for this song omg wow

[@janedoeslostsoul]

I just learned that Alex Brightman was even in the cast. And I love his work and have been listening to the album non-stop for the past week. yet I only realised it was him today!

[@timmetzner]

this song is the start of me

[@mawceroni]

This is the joke police that jokes to funny!

[@caseymclaughlin3743]

this is an amazing example of how words move people. I listened to this song on repeat for about an hour. Simply amazing

[@Stippler]

Ahhhh hes baby. Hes cute and handsome and so talented and i cant take it

[@IStillHaveLight]

Baby?? He's grown, that's weird af

[@sondersighs]

This song in every possible way makes my heart explode. I don't have enough words to express how much this song means to me. Or how many times I've listened to this song. All I can say is From all the nights alone and crying This song will always have a piece Of me

[@flusel4949]

It's like Jules tells the story and he is trying his best to stay calm and collected while telling it, but when the "Cut you a piece of me" parts come we see all the love he has for Jessie and the sorrow he felt after she passed... And Alex Brightman shows this in such a beuatiful way, that's supreme acting!

[@kenzie-luvs-acting]

I already cry when I hear this song man why did I decide to watch the live performance literally sobbing haha :D 👍

[@unnamedturtle4780]

everyone here for alex, please go listen to the rest of 35mm: a musical exhibition :(( he was on the original cast recording! its an absolutely beautiful musical i promise you won't regret it

[@JimmmyJam]

I think this is one of my favourite songs.

[@daisygalicia3553]

I sang this song with my chorus class in May at High School of Telecommunication Arts & Technology. I really liked & my Chorus teacher Ms. Shorter really liked it & is a big fan of yours. I love it ♥

[@Zzzk23]

This is heartbreaking and beautiful

[@kathleenheck7910]

This is so beautiful. And him.... it's just perfect.

[@Howdyheyimokay]

When I heard ‘Looking back was the right thing to say.’ I screamed “NOOOO!”

[@Lexicoley1826]

10 years on and this song still makes me bawl my eyes out. Absolutely breathtaking.

[@garylibra]

I didn't know they were there too! Well, clearly I missed an amazing night at Joe's. Somewhere from Broadway Musical Heaven, Joe Papp was smiling down and thinking, 'tonight is what my place is all about.' Nice going RSO :)

[@serenity-9825]

ITS BABY BEETLEJUICE

[@awesomewow7313]

I showed this to my friend and his response was " I know you like Hannibal but why are you now listening to cannibalism songs?" my response: 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♀️

[@awesomewow7313]

@Evyen Biwer Yeah I did but he was like "ight cool"😂

[@justmonika3471]

I think you should change friends

[@kris778]

To be fair, I also thought that before listening to it given the theme of some of the other songs 😅

[@Felipe.GS1]

@@kris778 Given the theme of the other songs, for mem they literally cut a piece of them and now when Jules is in the grave, Jessie is with Her, and She is with Him in the same way. And in the end, the people who is singing is asking for the one who he/her loves to do the same, afraid to be apart.

[@FrenchyFri_23]

No dad this is not a phase, it’s a religion

[@akoalabear239]

I’ve heard this song several times and I’ll be damned, I never noticed it was Alex Brightman.

[@ohrinners]

Chills.

[@SpaghettyBabyNoodleBoy]

My heart :'(

[@lea9759]

GO ADAM!!!!

[@musicprincess9747]

wekwekwek I love this song sm aghhhh

[@bobbyblas863]

Great song! a lot goes in the arrangement thank you:)

[@Abby-vs9un]

I LOVE THIS MAN HE IS AMAZING.

[@benjaminnebenjamin6033]

Now i shouldn’t feel odd at feeling attracted to him as Beetlejuice & Dewey 😍 i just discovered that he purposely tried to gain weight for SOR bec he thought he wasn’t fat enough 😂😂

[@NyxieLove22]

He is so pure omg

[@coziclair]

i cant stop watching this, its so beautiful

[@tunnelcrawlerwaluigi2690]

FINALLY, ALEX BRIGHTMAN IN HIS NOT BEETLEJUICE VOICE

[@sleepybunnybadger124]

Y did you have to make me cry wtf dude

[@JadeTheorist3942]

I am crying!!!! 😭

[@ItalianPokeMage]

It took me a while to get the line, "A marriage beginning amd ending with broken glass."

[@crypt1camoeba22]

Baby Alex ;-;

[@luthientinuviel3883]

This reminds me of my father, who died way too young...

[@tonibrown-hill]

This song reminds me of Fruits Baskets Prelude. I could imagine Kyo and Tohru singing this song and telling the story of Tohru’s parents to their kids. Jules: Kyoko (Both we’re pretty messed up before meeting the ones that love and after the other half deaths) Jesse: Katsuya (Both made the other half’s life better until death do they part) ⭐️💖😊

[@keirakabar2006]

[@liaspooked4980]

beetlejuice be looking quite different in this

[@elishaso]

Just realized I didn't know what Alex Brightman looked like without a beard until just now

[@BigGirthyRod]

The fact he can do this and then go onto Beetlejuice is very much range.

[@internetuser528]

i didn’t cry the first time i listend to this. then i watched endgame and immediately listened to this after thinking i would feel better. i don’t know why the FUCK i thought that. edit: fuck he’s crying shit, now IM crying

[@Sam-tk6dq]

Ik the point in the song is serious and revealing she died, but whenever I hear "and so was her ash" I keep hearing "and so was her ass" and idfk why lol.
