The Wonderful Wizard of Oz Audition Scene - DIARY OF A WIMPY KID (2010) Movie Clip 

Its not just the voice, somehow even the piano sounds better when greg starts singing

I think we all have secretly hoped a moment like this would happen in our childhoods lol

0:45 I think we can all agree that he was the one who really stole our hearts

The lady acts her expressions very well... Perfect!

Memes aside, the audition scene is really well done

Cmon, Greg's singing gave me goosebumps after all that horrendous singing

0:45 breathtaking, amazing singing displayed by this young lad

"the trees get to throw apples at patty" true friend right there

Ok, Greg's grades = 5/ 10 Greg's popularity = 3/10 Greg's singing = 11/10

This scene is actually brilliant, the terrible singers sing the 'dark' part of the song and when the good singer comes in he sings the chorus, which is the part that has the major chord progression, making his singing the resolution of the tension produced by the other singers

0:45 "TuRn ArOuNd, PIETAI" Edit:THANKS FOR 974 LIKESS

“Maybe YOU should be Dorothy!” 😂

THIS GAVE ME CHILLS. I WISH HE CONTINUED SINGING MORE AND THAT EVERYONE WAS JUST SHOCKED TO PIECES AT HIS VOICE.

To people who don’t know : It was a kid named L. J. Benet who was really singing just taught he needed some credit.

I definitely got chills from Greg’s singing he sounded almost angelic. Also I used to watch George Lopez as a kid so seeing Benny just made me feel nostalgic and warm inside 😭❤️

Glad to see people appreciate the writing/directing of this scene. This really was an excellent idea, exceptional song choice, and flawless execution.

Everyone is trying to meme here, and I just wanted to commend the lady for her facial acting. She played her part amazingly especially when the boy started singing.

Greg is like a real life version of that kid from Monster House.

This scene reminds me of my little brother. He passed away last year. He loved this movie, he'd watch it & then watch it again & again, & I'd just sit with him & watch it too. I always loved this scene man, brings me to tears since the first time I watched it. 🥲

If someone started singing like that in middle school with little formal training or experience it would be basically criminal to just go "be a tree in the play" and not go "lets get you enrolled in singing classes or jobs for child singers".

0:46 he hit the "bright eyes" part perfectly

0:45 this is literally the best part of the entire movie

"bright thighs" got me😂

Greg really humbled the entire class

I like how they added this. Makes Greg a less little pathetic and thus a little easier to stomach

Gregs voice is way too good

The girl at 0:21 was also killing it, but maybe her voice wasn't high enough for dorothy

0:56 dang Greg’s voice sounds like he’s an opera!

i come back to this scene every once in a while

0:45 this kid always gets me 😂😂

IN ALL HONESTY IVE PLAYED THIS AT LEAST 50 TIMES TODAY

0:45 The emotion was so heart touching I really felt his voice. It was soo good and people barely talk about his voice it was soo nice and deep touch.

I want a full version of him singing it & I’ll forever be so mad there isn’t one

0:45 is the goat, he’s underrated

This is definitely the best movie in the series for me. It's even better watching it now than when i was a kid, since back then i didn’t understand much. It's about an egotistical and borderline sociopath kid who's willing to exploit his closest friends and put them in trouble just to become famous in school and climb throught the school hierarchy, but in the end he realizes that none of that shit actually matters and that his friendship with Rowley is far more important than becoming famous. I like Rodrick Rules too cuz i love Rodrick's character but this one is honestly at the top

As an actor you learn to act like you play a violin, with less then more. No acting, just being. That’s the clearness in his voice. This deep pain which is softly communicated in his voice this unstable balance between sadness and pure joy.

“The tree gets to throw apples at her” Now that’s a good friend right there

people really took more then 10 years to turn this scene into a viral meme 😭

For those who are curious the actor for Greg Heffley is all grown up now and he made a good song called "Timb Bomb" and other (actors name is Zachary Gordon and he voices many characters including Tighnari from Genshin Impact) 😊

Everytime I listen to Greg’s voice I get chills

0:45 was the best singer IMO

Am I the only one who wants a full version of Greg singing ?

Fuck, let the man finish song!! 1:13

Greg your singing voice is so beautiful

"turn around buy thighs!"

0:45 what my family hears when I’m singing in the shower

0:53 greg hefflys voice is so good, i never knew he could sing❤

0:50 is one of the best songs I ever heard❤😊👍

Who else watched the Greg singing part over and over again

0:50 he and greg harmonized lmaooo

I need a complete version of this...

0:45 BEST PART

Ok but Greg’s got some serious pipes.

it hit me right in the feels when greg started singing. chills. just chills. i dont even know why or how, but i get emotional just hearing his voice and i wanna cry happy tears

His voice makes me melt 😊❤️

I think that Greg has the most beautiful voice ever.

0:25 represented me when I dont know the lyrics but I continue singing

Damn everyone is here from months ago and I’m here in 2024

L. J. Benet's voice puts tears in my eyes for the few seconds that we hear it.

0:45 Such a beautiful voice it made me cry

That kid before greg was putting his whole heart into singing😂 Edit: 800 likes thanks so much guys

Greg ate those vocals up❤️😭

If I were that teacher I’d send patty to a psychiatrist, the fact that she’s making threats to ruin her life if she doesn’t get her way shows she not right in the head.

even tho all people think greg is loser, his gaming and singing skills are unmatchable

I like how they didn’t even explain why he had a good voice lmao

I got goosebumps when he started singing ❤️

For me, two kids had come so close to matching Greg’s expectations, but he did it.

The pain in this kid's voice... it's beautiful

since actually actor who played greg actually is a really great singer i wonder if he actually sang this 👀👀

when i was younger i never payed attention to this but greg is so good at singing

0:50 is when greg starts singing btw (for anyone who wants it)

0:46 Man I really like that kid on the left. Amazing acting, I think he's going places in life! Hopefully he doesn't ruin it by committing some horrible crime that gets him in jail

Glad one video doesn't have comments turned off

Not gonna lie, Greg has the best singing voice known to man kind

Turn Around Every Now And Then I Get A Little Bit Lonely

I love the transition from the last "bad" kid singing to Greg it's so clear. Newer saw the movie but i read the books and i don't remember this part but Gregs singing is so good guess imma have to watch it now.

This boy sings beautifully ❤ The brunette girl with low voice wasn't bad, she surely could have a mezzo/alto role, and the blonde girl one in glasses has potential.

I need to rewatch this fever dream

Love the dude with the lion costume he doesn’t give a shit about whether he’s taken or not 😂😂😂😂

Hey, I’m looking for some laundry detergent, what brand should I get? 0:47

This is one of my favorite scenes in movie history. I still cry laugh to this day. And the fact it’s a meme now makes it so much funnier 😂

Bro when I first watched Diary of a Wimpy Kid this was my top fav scene 😂

His voice gives me the shivers❤

This scene has literally became a meme now this will always be my favourite 😭

Why couldn't Greg sing the whole song 😔

Why did the teacher have to end it, let him smash the rest of the song 🤌

Perfect!!! Very good!!!

when greg sung i got gossebumps

Never knew Brock Purdy had a beautiful voice as a kid

Greg’s singing was amazing

I didn’t know the diary of the wimpy kid movie was this funny

0:50 petition to make a full version of the song

0:51 what I think I sound like What my sibling and friends hears 0:25 What I actually sound like 0:47

Bro Greg has a talent, woahhhh I’m so happy for him

I love this scene so much 😭

This kids voice is angelic 0:51

0:38 She’s actually the second best singer after Greg I know 0:45 is the fan favorite based on entertainment value but the girl at 0:38 sounded pretty good also. She just needed to sing with a little more confidence. 🙂

One of the best movie scenes ever

This gave me Ghostbusters. I mean- goosebumps

An absolutely iconic scene
