[@lisettegold7040]

i don't have three other starkid friends and it makes me sad because i love this song and it's really hard to sing all four parts at once

[@justarandomperson5301]

I can sooo relate😂

[@redacted5078]

I feel called out by this comment

[@richardpickers2927]

Lisette Gold sAame

[@juliawirt-rodin8553]

We have to made a "Starkid Fan Meeting" so we can meet other fans and sing the songs together

[@pantheraviva]

Lisette Gold mood

[@elenarodriguez2402]

Right, now that we've got that four part harmony out of the way

[@yleniabarbazza]

February is obviously better here, but she was sick during the performance, while Dylan's voice is missing something when he's not singing live, I don't know if they modify his voice or what but it doesn't sound as good as live, and I kind of miss Meredith's robot voice, it was perfect on stage and gave the all part about different races and destroying humans a little more sense

[@Cuggaconroyfan30001]

Dylan is toned down here he belts om stage cant very well do that in a studio

[@kait_rose_0232]

Yeah. Belting in studio is a lot harder than on stages. When I was recording a song that requires a lot of belting, I was trying to not blow the mic (which is totally possible) but still sound the same as a live performance

[@Cuggaconroyfan30001]

@@kait_rose_0232 sometimes its just not doable he is still a good singer but he loses some kick because he lacks projection

[@kait_rose_0232]

I totally agree. He has a hard time with his projection

[@corinnacougar881]

I agree.

[@ajaxbird2348]

When they sing the word “clue” together after singing different parts I get chills.

Darren is a poet, a songwriting genius. Dylan's voice makes my heart melt into a puddle of butter. Meredith is phenomenal. nuff said. Joey, you can hear his crooked jaw in this song. just listen. And Denise is GREAT for the character she was given.

[@SwissArmyCheese]

Was this one of the shows Darren wrote the music for? I assumed all the GLEE jokes were due to his absence, and he eventually stopped writing their music.

[@Trey-dp6tl]

My two favorite romantic Starkid songs are sung by Dylan and Meredith

[@superikkeeeee]

When im sad, the song cheers me up. When im happy, it makes me even more happier but sad at the same time.... I love it its so beautifull

[@christinman]

I want this to be playing on my wedding day. Preferably sang live. By Dylan.

It's eleven o'clock at night and for some dang reason I couldn't go to sleep without listening to this first... What have you done to my life starkid??????

This song makes me happy. Darren wrote it and Dylan sings it. SO beautiful.

[@NathanOhsure]

Woah Denise totally awesome

[@KMRCPproductions]

I don't care what anyone says. I love Denise's voice.

[@LvndrHppE2]

I'm listening to this song over and over, because it's just so beautiful and I now want to have Dylan sing this to me.

[@melinafrance]

This song sounds a bit like a Disney song. Maybe that's why I love it so much!

[@gleefan813]

No, your not crying to a love song between a country boy and a robot... You're listening to a really awesome love song between a country boy and a robot!!!!!

Ohmygoddddd Dylan has such a singing voice!!!! Absolutely wonderful song by Darren Criss sung by wonderful singers!!!

[@hawktalon7890]

I do not trust myself to be in a relationship, but if I ever got married I'd probably duet this at my wedding; provided my partner was up for it.

Catch me playing this song 4 times so I can sing every part😂

[@aimeec0148]

Aaaaahh Dylan's voice 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@Black-Swan-007]

This version and the one that Meredith performed live combined have a beautiful harmony in the middle of her part. That is what I'm living for right now. I can't get it out if my head.

[@thelllb]

I keep listening to this over and over because I think if I listen to it enough dylan will come out of my kindle and sing it to me. So beautiful.....

it's so nice how Denise is in character singing with a slightly robot voice but throughout the song it sounds more human, it build the character and ps she is a great singer, otherwise why was she chosen for that role, the starkids are better than the wizard god himself and they wouldn't have chose her if she couldn't sing.

The chord at 3:14 is kind of weird but I kind of like that it's kind of doesn't fit because that's what Bug feels like

[@starkid]

Hey there, could you take your videos like this down? Selling the studio album is part of how artists involved in the show are compensated, and posting it for free on KZbin makes everyone less able continue to create content like this for you in the future. Thanks!

[@jenniferrelucio9833]

They didn't take it down

[@tiffanychan1945]

@@jenniferrelucio9833 Absolutely no disrespect towards Team Starkid (I've bought the virtual DVDs for a couple of their shows and 100% support them in trying to get their money's worth for the quality content they always produce for us and upload for free, however, this and a stream of other lyric videos that the Team Starkid account commented on two months ago are 9 years old. If you look at this channel's activity, they haven't even posted a video since 8 years ago, so who knows if they even check this account or have access to it? I don't quite understand the point of going on a commenting spree of videos that are nearly a decade old, when the songs themselves are also up on Spotify and Apple Music and I don't believe artists make much money off those streams either. I realize that the Black Friday cast album is only available if purchased and again, I support that and plan on purchasing it when I actually have enough money to spare on hand, and I support Team Starkid warning people who are putting up content that people have to pay for up for free and taking money away from them, but coming after 9 year old videos kind of confuses me...Of course if Team Starkid replies and explains what I'm missing, I'd be more than happy to retract my comment. I truly don't mean to offend or hurt anyone! I also think that if they were against people putting up lyric videos and official audio on their KZbin channels, maybe they should put it up on their own channel and encourage everyone to use those videos instead? (Specifically the songs that are already available on public streaming services)

[@asharn1998]

My question is: Why did Meredith bring it down an octave at first?

[@kl-1447]

I think in the original show, she started in the wrong key? I read that somewhere

[@rend9624]

It must be the original key but I like the higher key tbh

[@Rude_i_Wredne]

I think it might be the other way. This is original , but because it starts on Eb3, it might be uncomfortably low even for Meredith, so she might not feel strong enough that day to sing it that low so she started an octave higher and then worked her way around the passage so she could end on the right note.

[@nyancatismyonlyfrand]

Man I love the beginning part of this song but Denise is just not a very strong singer and it ruins it for me haha

[@carlymckinney241]

@@fredjeff397 this seems to be a popular opinion, and I'd say it's justified in the context of this song, which has three other performers with fuller voices. Although I think Denise has a perfectly wonderful voice, I definitely see why her lighter tone might not be comfortable to the ears with this love ballad. I personally restart the song when Dylan and Meredith stop singing, but that's more to do with me liking their voices together than disliking Denise and Joey's. Either way, I agree that the first half is better, but I also agree that saying Denise isn't a strong singer without explanation or *constructive* criticism is a bit unnecessarily mean (I'm specifically referring to "ruining the song" here), however justified the opinion.

[@darrencrissisHOT]

they all have such beautiful voices then denise comes in and sucks

[@ImagineRevolution64]

@KMRCPproductions It's much better in this recording. In the actually play, it was terrible.

[@carlymckinney241]

I actually prefer the live performance, at least when it comes to Dylan and Meredith
