Those two together are so wonderful and so funny. If anyone hasn't seen it, Ramin and Will Swenson did an absolutely zany version of "The Confrontation/ A Little Fall of Rain" together that had the audience dying with laughter.
Welcome to the Community of People that Appreciate Hadley Fraser, of whom I suspect Ramin is head cheerleader. Both are baritones. They met when Ramin understudied Hadley's Marius (on West End in 2002) when Hadley was picked straight out of drama school by Sir Cameron MacIntosh for the part. Later they wrote songs together and sang in a band called the Sheytoons. Google for the plaudits of Hadley playing the Gene Wilder role in the West End production of Young Frankenstein musical in 2017. Also, if you want something recent (like this month), this is a musical in development - - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ZidQd-4wyDI.html. Hadley's enunciation is so clear, and the character's passions are so well expressed, and then -- his voice! Soaring above his fellow singers!

"Although Karimloo is a lyric baritone who can ease himself into tenor territory, he’s very much at home with recent Broadway pop: “Anthem” (CHESS), “Let It Go” (FROZEN), “Wicked Little Town” (HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH) and “Is This the World We Created?” (a Queen song that has been inserted into WE WILL ROCK YOU every now and then).

The Blue Jay jersey is appropriate as Ramin Karimloo grew up in Toronto and became interested in musicals while attending a performance of Phantom of the Opera as part of a school trip.
I'm sorry. They're smiling. They're laughing. They miss the entire tone of the moment. This song is about a man in a room full of ghost... smiling, laughing, bonhomie aren't really appropriate.
This video has missed the start of the actual performance, Hadley stuffed up the words to it, so they stopped and started again, find the whole video of it, it makes sense.
