@@stellakcole You’re welcome! Keep singing! One day you’ll cross the pond and us Europeans will be swept away by your voice. In the mean time we have RU-vid and TikTok :)
I don’t have context as to know why this song hit you this hard on stage, but it most certainly hit me. Totally impressive. We all want to you to be the star of our generation. Congrats on being honest and powerful.

I just discovered Company recently, and it's quickly become perhaps my favorite musical. I was getting a lump in my throat listening to this. What an honest and stellar performance!
Admittedly this is the first time I have heard this song. I love it! All of it! The way you sing it, the way your authentic expression moves the listener and that smile.
LYRICS: Someone to hold you too close Someone to hurt you too deep Someone to sit in your chair To ruin your sleep and make you aware Someone to need you too much Someone to know you too well Someone to pull you up short To put you through hell and give you support Someone you have to let in Someone whose feelings you spare Someone who, like it or not Will want you to share A little, a lot... of being alive being alive Someone to crowd you with love Someone to force you to care Someone to make you come through Who'll always be there As frightened as you Of being alive Being alive, being alive, being alive Somebody hold me too close Somebody hurt me too deep Somebody sit in my chair And ruin my sleep And make me aware Of being alive, being alive Somebody need me too much Somebody know me too well Somebody pull me up short And put me through hell And give me support For being alive Make me alive Make me alive Make me confused Mock me with praise Let me be used Vary my days But alone is alone, not alive Somebody crowd me with love Somebody force me to care Somebody make me come through I'll always be there As frightened as you To help us survive Being alive, being alive Being alive!
This video was where i heard this song for the first time, and i couldn't have asked for a better introduction. You know when a song and/or performance is so astounding that you're actually afraid to cover it? Like, you're afraid to taint it somehow, make it commonplace and mundane in your mind? This is that. The *Being Alive* zenith. It's all downhill from here, folks.
