No one ever mentions Brian Charles Johnson. He's got such a good voice, too... I mean, I love the rest of the guys- but in this one, hearing Brian made me happy.
It's cute from around 1:16 to 1:20 where John is just kind of swaying and smiling and looking at the ceiling. haha. On another note, this whole cast is just perfection.
this is kind of ironic that the cast of Spring Awakening is singing "Touch Me" at Virgin Mobile lol. Hats off! I totally LOVE Spring Awakening. The cast works so unbelievably well together
i really do have to say..this is probably my favorite song from the show. i have multiple favorites, but if i had to choose one, this would definitely be it. It is so incredibly beautiful. and they rock it every time they sing it!
I think the music for this show is AWESOME!!!!! Seriously, that right there is like my favorite song! The vocalists are so good! Bravo Spring Awakening!
If you've only ever listened to the cast recording, those Touch Me lyrics are very outdated -- they were used off-Broadway but I'm pretty sure that even by the time the show was in previews on Broadway the lyrics had been revised. The lyrics in this video have been the ones actually used in all English speaking productions of the show that I know of since November 2006 :)
there is just something about this song that is so haunting.... it's not just sexually charged, which it totally is. It's more... getting lost in the feeling of the touch of another person. it's almost sad in that what they are talking about is the longing for connection..... am i wrong? reading too much into this?
i saw spring awakening for the first time on december 30 2008 and it was amazing i mean i love the original cast and the cd is all i listen to but i really wish gerard canonico was the original moritz ughhh but anywho the show was so amazing i went to see it two more times before it closed including closing night it was amzing and omg i love this musical and i am so sad it is off broadway! :(
@smackme12 Sorry you missed it! I seen it a few months ago before the tour closed with anthony rapp and adam pascal. I think everybody should have gotten the chance to see it live.
sorry to tell you but the entire OBC of Spring Awakening are gone except for one ensemble member Gerard who was bumped up to Moritz. The last of the cast left about a week ago.
i wasn't able to see the OBC on broadway, which sucked, and i've seen countless videos of them, the tour cast, the "socha cast" and nothing can even compare to the OBC.
