Every time I hear this, I tear up. It has the perfect balance of humor, dramatics, and honesty that any good story should possess. Well written.

i am completely in love. for real though. this song makes me completely burs into tears. how moving and heartfelt. and relatable. i'm so careless.

Great voice, great performance, lovely song!

The best performance of this song I have seen. Wow. He is fantastic!

Colin Hanlon is just so talented. Even in I Love You Because...he's just so..hmm..I can't even find a word to describe his talent. He truly captures the character's emotions and portrays it so well. Someone please give this man a Broadway show!

Hahah i have never heard the 2nd verse before thank you! awesome!

Beautifully performed! Great voice and acting :) He put some legit emotion into this it seemed

Really good! loved this version and your voice is wonderful!

This is an actual performance where Aaron is singing it cabaret style. That is why the performances are vastly different

Great performance. Not too overdone and really good vocals too. Also, props to whoever shot this, I love how it zooms out to show the teacher/father. :D

aaahhhh awesome! I keep watching this movie, I can't stop! It's so good!!! I love his acting, and his voice. Just... so good.

This guy was awesome on Modern Family. He's got great comedic timing. :)

Also, in this version, they have the verse about the graduation, where in Aaron's version he sings a more random list about his "offenses." Both are great, though!

I like both his and Aaron's versions. The song is great lyrically both ways! And both are very talented

He has a great voice!!!

When they make The Hangover: The Musical, this guy will be Bradley Cooper.

Colin Hanlon. He's great. If you want to hear him on a more commercial recording, he's on I love You Because.

I love this second verse. is this, or Aaron's version the official/up-to-date version?

I like his interpretation the best

yeah the music featured in this show isnt the exact music that appears in the current licensed edition, like coasting has been drastically changed. but only a couple of the songs have been changed

I love you because is a musical starring Colin Hanlon (from this vid) Farah Alvin (The Marvelous Wonderettes) and Stephanie d'Abruzzo (Avenue Q) It's a fun, upbeat musical with some amazing songs!

Fun song well done, and nice to see Colin Hanlon, whom I know only from SUBMISSIONS ONLY (when do we get the new season?!).

Oh my god! The audience laughed when it got serious! It made me cringe! Anyway, I do prefer the alternate lyrics, but this is a wonderful performance. The "what if I start to need him and he goes away" line always gets me.

Where did you get the instrumental? Please ?

I Love this guy!!! Who is he?!

The lyrics in Aaron Tveits version work so much better in my opinion I think theres more room to play the comedy in them which I think contrasts the ending better than with these new lyrics..

Also, I think the composers are still tweaking these songs. I heard one version of "Part of a Painting" from the show on the demo CD, loved it, ordered the music on-line just to discover the second verse had been changed.

Colin Hanlon is a beautiful man.

Great performance

does edges have a continuous storyline or is it just a bunch of songs about growing up strung together?

He looks so much like mr shue in that shirt

Lyrically... it's different. But I get what you were getting at. :D

Where do I get the Sheet Music for this Specific song? =)

When was this performed??

Hi I wanted to do this song for a showcase my School is having but I can't find a Instrumental/Karaoke version of this song is there any way you can or can direct me to a place where I can get the instrumental it would be greatly appreciated

Oh, hello Colin Hanlon.

Just a bit part. One half of a gay couple that was buying a house from Phil, I think. The episode was 'Aunt Mommy'.

I like this version,but I think I love Aaron Tveit's version better!

@prov31princess my favorite thing is how hot he is. :p

Great performance, but the guy is so hot I could even watch this with the sound off.

He has a great voice and it's a really good performance and I know it's nothing to do with him but in terms of the song I hate the lyric change- for me it just doesn't work at all such a shame that the lyrics were re written, Aaron Tveit's version will always be better in my opinion

his rendition was good but i most like the version of topper fabregas........

I Like Grant gustin's version better...

nope
