Scrolling through the comments, I've seen a couple regarding Melchior's reaction to Wendla dying. Although they were comments from a few years ago I feel like I should point something out: Melchior just lost his best friend, his love and his unborn child. It shouldn't matter how he screamed the "no" because in a time like that you have no idea what else to do, and you're going to let out your emotion in any way possible. Personally I think the entire scene of once he finds her grave is beautiful. The amount of emotion Jonathan puts into it is so real and moving. I don't think there is anything wrong with it. Thank you so much for uploading this by the way!!

no one ever forgets their first time... watching Spring Awakening

He lost the love of his life, his unborn child and his bestfriend. :'(

When Melchior takes their hands and pulls them close to him 😭

I seriously wish Jon would get a Tony. I cry every single time he starts singing "Now they'll walk on my arm through the distant night, and I won't let them stray from my heart. Through the wind, through the dark, through the winter light. I will read all their dreams to the stars."

The scene with Melchior in the graveyard when he discovers Wendla's grave makes me sick to my stomach with sadness. And then when he starts sobbing, I cry with him. Jonathan Groff puts so much soul into his work, it's amazing. Both he and Lea should've gotten Tony's for this.

No joke- when Jonathan Groff started sobbing it made me nauseous...where is this man's Tony Award?!?

One of the best acted moments I have ever seen. So raw and unbelievable. You rock Johnny Groff.

The scene of Jonathan Groff (Melchoir) sobbing was the best of all the play. I can't help crying everytime I see it.

Thank you for uploading, I have been looking for ages to watch this musical and this is the best copy so far. Love this musical, so sad but still its amazing! wish I could have seen this live on stage, hopefully one day I will :-)

this musical is beautiful! When I had first read about it, I thought it was inappropriate. but then I finally watched it, and I totally get it. it touches on so many different things that teens go through. and Lea and Jonathan are amazing!

I always turn it off here and pretend they lived happily ever after with their baby but at some time you have to realize that the actual end to this show can be reality

Until now I have always cried when he sees her grave and cries. But after reading "he sounds like Santa when he cries." I laugh... So hard.

I've never been so touched by a musical and this one is filmed with a digital camera. If the original cast ever came back to do it on Broadway, I wouldn't care if I had to swim across the Atlantic. I'd be there, period. And I'd probably cry throughout the entire show. So beautiful.

stomach churning when he screams "No". so powerful, love it. ugh such a great show and they did such a good job.

This production was just beautiful

The Emotion they put into "those You've know" Makes me cry every time! I would love to be able to see these actors put it on live. Jonathan Groff is such an amazing Actor!

Oh my god!!! I'm sobbing right now!!!! This musical is absolutely amazing and the OBC is just breathtaking. I spent my entire day watching all of this and I have to say, my day doesn't feel wasted at all. I absolutely love everyone in this cast and this musical makes me cry everytime I listen to the music. It's just amazing. And, I love Jon and Lea on Glee, just saying. I'm glad I get to see her sing another amazing song every Tuesday night (:

There's so much to it. It's hard with the audio quality to hear everything that happens. You'll have to see an off-broadway version or something. Everything about it is extraordinary.

@xiahbee wendla dies from a forced abortion on her baby. Thats why that doctor told the mom to bring her to him at night and he asked her if she was sure she wanted to have her go through with it because it was a risk to her daughter. She just wanted her to be rid of the baby... I saw that coming, but I must say, Melchior's reaction brought tears to my eyes. =[

This brought me to tears. Thank you so much for posting this incredible musical. Seriously, thank you.

This is my 2nd time watching the Spring Awakening on KZfaq. I only wish I got to see it live. All the actors and actresses were phenominal. I almost cried when Jonathan Groff was crying. I wished they had this musical when I was a teenager. My parents refused to talk to me about sex. They were very strict and over protective like these parents were. I thought Spring Awakening was moving.

Thanks so much for posting this musical. I love it so much and have watched it numerous times!

THank you SO VERY MUCH for posting these! I have been wanting to see the show for years and have the soundtrack. I listen to it almost every day. It was wonderful!

Thank you SO much for posting all of this. I'm afraid I became a fan of Lea and Jonathan during Glee and when i found out about this musical, I felt as if I could never see it without them on stage because it would never be as perfect as the soundtrack. Thank you so much for allowing me to witness them in the parts as they should be played. :') Tears streaming down my face.

Thank you so much for uploading this! Duncan Shiek (sp?) really started something special here.

This show was just amazing. I love how they did the music and the lyrics could be so poetic. Everyone is so talented! Plus, being 16, I can relate so much to everything and I like the way they went about touching on different issues. I couldn't stop crying for ten minutes XD

God... Finally stop crying like a baby! Now this musical, it's just ... the best I've ever seen!! Thanks a lot for uploading it, I would so love to have this on DVD!!!

I absolutely LOVE this show. So powerful and honest. Absolutely amazing cast too. Thank you so much for posting :)

me too. it's sooo amazing and real and heartfelt you can't help but feel their agony with them.

Thank you so much for uploading! This production is brilliant, oh my!

In the original play, Moritz's ghost actually tried to convince Melchior to join him in death. It was creepy as heck. Thank goodness they changed it. As much as the original ending is brilliant with the character of the Masked Man, this one is just as powerful, if not more.

I will never tire of watching this show.

UGH, this scene makes me want to cry. So much emotion.

Thank you for sharing this, it was beautiful, sad and wonderful. What a great cast.

I've seen this show live 5 times. never got a chance to actually see it on Broadway, but Moritz has always been my favorite character and "Those You've Known" has always been my favorite song. Thanks for posting! I wonder if anyone recored the touring cast Blake Bashoff did amazing as Moritz

this song and scene is the best of all of them!! It's so powerful!!

That was my first time watching Spring Awakening.. It was just breathtaking.. Perfection, in every emotion..

In floods of tears :'( Thanks so much for posting this! Its an amazing show!

this was soooo amazing.

This part never fails to make me cry.

that was amazing! i love musicals and this was the first time hearing about this play and the songs and story blew me away so thank you for uploading this so i could watch it!!!!

The BEST cast!!!! Hands down!!!! Even Jon and Lea were better in this version!!! LOVE IT!!!!

Thank you so so so so soooo much for uploading this!

Thank you so much for posting this!! I would never been able to see it with the original if it wasn't for you! I was crying at the end and I think the original cast needs to make this a movie!! For everyone who loves it!! I was so touches!!

Even though it didn't hold the same magnitude as this performance, I saw the second US run of SA, and recommend seeing this musical live. There's something more that the actors chosen to be in this play convey... A poignancy that can only be experienced when its right before your eyes. It's worth the wait and the money, and it never gets old-- an obvious point since I'm re-watching it via KZfaq. I'm not in a theatre yet I still break out into tears q_q

The fact that I never got to see this on Broadway with this cast still makes me upset.

Thank you so much for uploading this! I never would've been able to see it with the original cast otherwise. I saw the national tour when I was 15, but the Broadway version ran from when I was 12 to 14. My parents would've died before they let me see it.

Damn Jonathon is amazing! I cried soo hard... give the man a Tony or something. Wow!

This show is amazing!! I was just cast as wendla and I'm so excited for it!! It's a beautiful show with great music!!!! =D

Love this show!! I'm auditioning for this show this week and I'm so excited!!!

Wow... I love this. Can watch it every month and still be affected. Thanks.

Thank so much for posting! This show is amazing. :)

Bless your soul for this.

Really, THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!!! I've been looking for this, for a very long time. I never had the chance to see it on Broadway, you make my day!!!!!

I watched Next To Normal and now I am watching this, TOO MANY FEELS ALL AT ONCE. I am just gonna go cry forever

I remember when I saw this live on Broadway and EVERYONE in the whole theater was bawling.

who's watching in 2017?

I've watched this play so many times and still yet have to watch it without crying, and by crying I mean sobbing.

Oh my gosh this play is so tragic and beautiful and I just love it. THANK YOU FOR UPLOADING IT. LEA MICHELE N JONATHAN GROFF I 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 UUUUUUUUUU

omg i loved it thanks for uploading it again wish i could have seen it live but i'm glad i was able to see it at all

thank you so much for uploading this! :)

I watched this last night then today watched bts stuff and understood everything and then I just had to watch it again haha

God this is soooo sad, they make me want to cry every time

I got mine at 11. We all grow in our own good time.

THANK YOU SO MUCH for your videos, I'm from Argentina and I don't have the chance to see it on brodway :)

I loved this so much.

brings me to tears every time.....

This is my first time watching Swing Awakening and I LOVE IT.

Oh.my.gosh. That was spectacular.

best musical ever!!!!

An amazing play, so touching, a true child's tragedy

I discovered this play Wednesday Or Thursday this week ( forgot lol) and I've already watched it 3 times :) crazy I know but I really like it, and I cried at the part where Melchior found Wendlas grave :(

Isle has gorgeous hair.

this is so beautiful

I wish I ended it after hearing Whispering so I could pretend that they kept their kid. I blame Wendla's mother, of course. She kept the truth from Wendla, so how could she possibly know the consequences? I actually feel bad for Melchior - his lover and child get killed before he really even knew about the existence of said child. Yes, he could have told her about the possibility of pregnancy - but that's not his responsibility, and Wendla might not have even known that he knew.

I'm crying my eyes out watching this...then I relize I'm sitting alone on my computer.

I've been searching endlessly for a good quality version of this musical. And I finally found it. Thank you so much for uploading this. It's great that those lacking the funds or resources to see a broadway show can still be exposed to musical theater

@moonnugget The OBC recording was done when the show was getting ready to transition to Broadway from off-Broadway, and it included earlier, non-final versions of several songs, most notably "Touch Me" and "Purple Summer."

I watched a welsh version and that was great i loved it

beautiful :]

there are plenty people these days who need to learn that lesson...

i love love love love Spring Awakeining:)

No problems, I apologize if I came on too strong, even I was shocked the first time I heard of it and more the second.

wow this is the first time that i have ever seen this play and it was awsome

Aww! I wanted the bows :(

I cry. EVERY TIME.

i know this is a play but i always cry when Melchior discovers Wendla's tomb

Even today, my elder sister didn't start until she was fifteen. Not having started by fourteen is a little less usual today but certainly wouldn't have been uncommon even fifty years ago.

After Wendla finds out she's pregnant, Melchior gets blamed for Moritz's death and Wendla's pregnancy, so he gets kicked out without knowing that Wendla is pregnant. He runs away from the reformatory to be with Wendla, but Wendla died on the table when her mom forced her to get an abortion. Then Melchior tries to kill himself but the ghosts of Moritz and Wendla stop him.

@carriewhite410 ah thank you so much! :D sorry but could you also explain how the guy with curley hair died? :S

@giniethesinger Same here :) I watched it 4 times...discovered it few weeks ago. This end always touches me...

Is it raining? and this is the most amazing play....

@littledancinlady You're welcome, anw they use hand held mics beacuse the songs are inner monologues and because they wanted a "concert" effect.

@JennyTangoJBJPHS I'm guessing you're talking about the guy to the left of Melchoir? That was his best friend who committed suicide after he failed school and wasn't able to flee to America. Hence why Melchior says "Well, you had the right idea" before he attempts to commit suicide by slitting his throat.

Basically, it's about teens in late 19th century Germany finding out about puberty.

i cried. a lot. :(

this is the version that's in the book. some of the recordings on the cd differ a lot from the ones from the script

@Em1qaz That's just part of the show they wanted it to feel intimate almost like you're looking in.

@leytonfromBA Aw this makes me happy,you are very welcome :D
