Me to my boyfriend: I'm going to run away with him! Him: Not if I run away with him first

I have unrealistic standards because men like Jeremy Jordan exist.

When he sings "Call me crazy but I'm much crazier for you" he started playing with his wedding ring and I may have died a little.

"I'm bad with words" Proceeds to sing one of the most eloquent songs in the show

I just have to say this: the fact that it's virtually impossible to tell when he's acting versus when he's not is a true testament of just how skilled and talented of an actor he is.

I'm a heterosexual male and I would run away with him

the way he said "I'M SO NERVOUS" oh my god

PETITION FOR EVERY HOT BROADWAY GUY TO RECORD THIS SONG

I wish this version was professionally recorded.

So not being familiar with this song I totally thought he was adlib'ing at the beginning only to find out it's written that way and that only made it seem even more brilliant.

That was definitely The Most adorable, cute-as-hell, small-boy-nervous-happy-style performance EVER.

His power over the audience... to go from having them laughing one second to dead silent and riveted by his performance the next second is phenomenal

THIS COMMENT SECTION IS SO PURE IT MAKES MY HEART WARM

I love this version so much. There are so many versions but Jeremy's version...it's like he is actually talking to someone. Pleading his case for the first time, nervous and unsure about their response but steadfast in his feelings in such a way that he almost even shocks himself. But, of course, this is typical from him. He really has a way of reaching people and making them feel what he's singing. It's both wonderful and terrible for people like me who are easily overwhelmed by intense emotion.

I just--oh my. Its like falling in love. Aaron's and Jeremy's are both incredible in totally different ways. Its impossible to decide which one is "better." Aaron sings it like he's giving her something she's always wanted. Like it was something she brought up before and this is him giving her everything she's ever wanted. And Jeremy sings it like this is everything HE'S ever wanted. The desperation is heartbreakingly beautiful. Like she is the center of his world and he wants her to himself ♥

i've never heard this song before and i was like "OH! HE STARTED WITH THE SONG ALREADY" smooth jeremy, very smooth

JEREMY IS CUTER THAN A CUPCAKE OH MY GOODNESS

Give me Jeremy's eagerness, Aaron's smoothness, Grant's vulnerability and vibrato, and Colton's perfectly executed runs and that would be the ideal version of this song.

(how to break a heart a book by jeremy jordan)

No need to ask Jeremy - yes, I will run away with you.

his run at 3:34 to 3:43 is the fabric of life

Best version of this song, hands down!! He owned it and I love the more "generic" lyrics, leaving "Sam" out and thankfully no improvised twang when he sings "country song"! This version is for anyone!

I love seeing how artists like Jeremy just take a song and make it something so incredibly expressive. They get so into it. You can see it in their eyes, how much they love preforming. Damn, this is why theatre means the world to me. Every thespian can relate to that feeling you get onstage, am I right? Or am I right?

I've got to say I felt 'safer' listening to you perform this song than I have with many other performers, who tend to rush and push far too hard. Instead you gave us space to sit with you and didn't allow nerves to conquer you whilst trying to portray the nervousness of the song (if that makes any sense). There's a real difference between portraying emotion onstage and letting it overtake you, which can put an audience on edge, and you struck the balance there perfectly.

I really like the way that Jeremy made himself seem very nervous to be asking. It's a nice change from the usually earnest way you see people performing this.

i love his 'say the word and im already there' at 4:30 coz usually other singers scream at that part but he made it sound so much more romantic by singing it the way he did

I love this man and his gift of acting through a song. He's charismatic in the most genuine way. I had the joy of working with him in Bonnie & Clyde. I knew he was special then. I'd go listen to him sing anytime anywhere. A true gem.

As much as I love Aaron Tveit, I think Jeremy Jordan owned this song.

4:36 - 4:44 why nobody talking about the lil smile and pause to when he rests his chin on the mic bc that part is the Absolute Highlight of this entire video

a guy at my school sang this tonight. he said run away with me and apparently my brain to mouth filter is broken because I basically yelled okay in the middle of the auditorium. needless to say we made eye contact the rest of the night

I love his version of this song. He convinces me every time to pack up the car and run away with him. His wife is one lucky woman and his mannerisms are frankly adorable!

Saw other versions of this song and by far, Jeremy's version is the most heartfelt, the most seamless rendition. He did change some lines which is good as anyone can sing this to his/her loved one not named Sam. And he belts those notes so effortlessly. He just seems so natural in this song, both as a singer and as an actor.

I am a very straight man... until it comes to Jeremy Jordan :')

The soft "runaway with me" at end makes me heart flutter.

Man.. Jeremy Jordan just kills every song he ever sings. So talented!

I'm a little bit in love with him

I just fell in love in 4 minutes and 55 seconds...

"I have these plans, I have all these plans." The way he switches emotion between these two just kills me. It goes from sort of making fun of himself, to that desperate admission, and it's -beautiful-.

I have a friend named Sam, so it’s nice to finally find a version where the Sam is left out 😭 I’ve been wanting to show him this song for a while, but didn’t want him to think that it was a lowkey declaration of love

Watching in 2024 🙋‍♀️

That first "runaway with me" was too soft, warm and inviting. YES!

This video was the first time I ever heard this song and I legitimately thought that the song actually started around 1:12 or something because I thought the beginning was just Jeremey being Jeremey

that tiny "run away with me" at the end melted me

Jeremy Jordan is too adorable for words to describe.

The resonant belts... WTF. This DUDE is amazing...

Jeremy is so sweet. He does this song with.... and- I'm just speechless.

That smile and laugh at 4:09 is literally the best thing ever!! Can't wait to see Jeremy at 54 Below in October!

THIS WAS SO BEAUTIFUL AND SINCERE AND I'M LIKE ON MY FLOOR SCREAMING

HOllllly shit. I heard this was good but I wasn't expecting it to be this good. This is by far the best version I've heard.

HE IS SO CUTE HELP ME I WANT TO RUN AWAY WITH HIM

I love how he starts the song as Jeremy and you can see the shift when he goes into character. The audience is stunned into silence. This is perfection.

So I have never heard anything about or by Jeremy before, only his name. Just randomly saw this and decided to watch. Seriously within the first 5 seconds, I was in love with him. Time to stalk him in every piece of broadway he has ever even looked at!!!!!

Jeremy Jordan is excellent, but have to recognize the musical composer. Great melody and guitar playing.

I am growing deeply in love with this man.

The transition into this song is unbelievably seamless

I would pack a bag and leave right now for this man. Ya know what, screw the bag, take me now!!!!

i would never run away with anyone irl. but i would 100% run away with jeremy jordan if he sang this to me. yikes.

i literally get chest pains when i listen to this it's so perfect

I don't believe anyone in the whole world could sing a better version of this song.

I listen and sing along everyday while at work. I haven't missed a day in 4 months

Between Jeremy's version, and Aaron's version, I have this song stuck in my head constantly!!

Well this is just absolutely ridiculously charming

Dammit. I can't wipe the smile off my face.

i’m sorry but this is iconic

how does this not have millions of views I watch it at least once a week

This is 400% the best version of this I've seen yet. Hands down. Best.

I love how the audience be like " oh wow, what's next????" and then they're so dumbfounded by the performance they didnt realise that the song ended... and then the crowd wakes up to clap, madly ;) love it

His voice enchanted me so much, that it took me listening to this 5 times to realize that the background changed!!!!!!

Might be responsible for about 1,000 of these views.

*packed my bags* Let's go and run away Jeremy! like who wouldn't run away with him after that performance?

Let me catch my breath. This is really hard. If I start to look like I'm sweating, well it's 'cause I am. I'm not good with words. But that's nothing new. Still I have to try to explain what I wanna do With you. With you. Run away with me. Let me be your ride out of town. Let me be the place that you hide. We can make our lives on the go. Run away with me. Texas in the summer is cool. We'll be on the road like Jack Kerouac Looking back, Getting ready,let's go Anywhere. Get the car packed and throw me the key. Run away with me. I know this is fast. What else can I do? Call me crazy, but I'm much crazier for you. I have these plans. I have all these plans Of a house that we build on a bay When we run away. Let me be your ride out of town. Let me be the place that you hide. We can make our lives on the go. Run away with me. Alabama heat - sign me up. We'll be on the road like some country song. Won't be long. We'll be ready. Let's go Anywhere. Get the car packed and throw me the key. Run away with me. I'm not trying to make you a wife here, I'm not trying to tie you down. I'm just saying there may be a life here - A new one as soon as we run. Run away with me. Mississippi mud - watch me slide. We'll be on the road like Jack Kerouac, Looking back Almost raining Let me be your ride out of town. Let me be the place that you hide Run away with me. California dreams here we come Romeo is calling for Juliet Ready, set Now you're ready. Let's go Anywhere. Say the word and I'm already there! Run away with me.

No one. NO ONE has performed this more authentically and beautifully as Jeremy 😍

I keep thinking he is gonna say "like Jack Kelly" instead of "Jack Kerouac"

This my friends is why KZfaq exists. Boy has mad skills.

that last "run away with me" makes my heart melt every time. He's just too perfect.

I accidentally disliked the video while trying to scroll down and I have NEVER undone anything in my life SO FAST. It literally felt like a sin. Because it was.

I've listened to this so often that I actually know the beginning convo and coughing when I'm playing the song in my head

at 3:35 I DIED

Still my favorite performance of any song by any person.

Actuallly I never think I' was going to say this but I like more this performance than Aaron Tveit's

Honestly when he sang the first "Run away with me" My heart exploded 😍❤❤❤❤❤

He has the voice of an angel....I can't handle it.

A talented performer who eases from reality and engages into a song effortlessly so you cannot determine where he ends and the acting begins. He’s amazing.

It does not matter how many times I hear Jeremy Jordan built out those beautiful perfectly toned seemingly effortless notes in old or new videos. I am always in awe. He's so good.

an incomprehensible amount of love for this song and Jeremy Jordan. oh my lord.

This is indisputably the greatest performance of this song ever. Fight me.

I've been watching this vidoe on a regular basis for the past 3 years and I have no regrets.

I find myself coming back to this version of this song over and over. I just love the acting choices here. when it gets to the very end I feel like you can see that shift of him building up all these dreams and plans to the realization that he's already lost it and the plea isn't going to work, but he still has to try. uhsdfkhgkdshkjsdf, gets me every time.

Lost count of how many times I have watched this now. His sincerity in singing this is amazing 💜🎤🎶 To go from being funny and having a comical edge to the beautiful urgency he conveys so effortlessly is amazing!! His phrasing is perfection and he totally made this his song. I have my bags packed... I am ready to throw you the key Jeremy🔑🗝

This man is too pure for this world! 😍💖💕

Jeremy Jordan is such a human and sincere performer, and that’s what I love about him. He makes us feel like he’s singing directly to us, like this is some person we know, and it takes a special ability to connect like that.

This is such a beautiful song. And an absolutely perfect performance of it. I can't imagine how it could be better sung. But then, that's Jeremy Jordan. Perfection.

I infallibly make a slightly inhuman noise when he puts his chin on the mic right at the end.

JEREMY JORDAN JEREMY JORDAN JEREMY JORDAN JEREMY JORDAN JEREMY JOOOOOOOORDAN

I sang this song at my auditions to theatre schools 4 years ago, and it got me in, and i will always be thankful for it! Beautiful version

ridiculous... how incredible Jeremy sings!!!

Always get chills listening to him. He lives every song and you have live it with him.

Jeremy Jordan is AMAZING

I heard this once, swooned and cried. Came back every day since to rewatch it...I think I'm in love.

After 6 years of listening to the Michael Arden version, the lyric changes in this version threw me for a loop! Oh, Jeremy Jordan. So dreamy and talented.
