Let's Sing: One Song Glory from the musical, Rent

And because I got so inspired by Aaron Tveit's performance of this song, sing I shall.



One song
Glory
One song
Before I go
Glory
One song to leave behind
Find one song
One last refrain
Glory
From the pretty boy front Man
Who wasted opportunity
One song
He had the world at his feet
Glory
In the eyes of a young girl
A young girl
Find glory
Beyond the cheap colored lights
One song
Before the sun sets
Glory -- on another empty life
Time flies -- time dies
Glory -- One blaze of glory
One blaze of glory -- glory
Find
Glory
In a song that rings true
Truth like a blazing fire
An eternal flame
Find
One song
A song about love
Glory
From the soul of a young man
A young man
Find
The one song
Before the virus takes hold
Glory
Like a sunset
One song
To redeem this empty life
Time flies
And then - no need to endure anymore
Time dies

Aaron Tveit singing One Song Glory from Rent

One of the songs I like from Rent. Aaron Tveit did justice to this song. Why does he look familiar? That's because he is Trip Vanderbilt from the hit TV series Gossip Girl.

Did you know that Tveit auditioned for the role of Finn in Glee? Watch his audition piece:

Watch this clip of Nicole Scherzinger as Maureen in Rent performing Over The Moon. She's proving them all wrong, those who questioned why she was included in the cast. She gave a brilliant performance!

I'm going crazy over Nicole's performance singing Take Me or Leave Me, as Maureen in the Rent production staged by How I Met Your Mother's Neil Patrick Harris. She killed it! Whoa! This video was recorded on opening night. Thanks to Youtube user, dyhts2009  for posting. Enjoy!
