I don’t even know why I gasped frantically when I saw Alex Brightman
I wish
why am i crying
1:46 he's like, "when the heck did these lady get here" oml😂😂
This song is great for celebrating how live theather is exciting, but I also wish there was a streaming platform to watch these shows since getting to NY is crazy expensive.
Chills down my spine and tears in my eyes. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
amazing
Just before he said the tears fill your eyes i started tearing. This man deserves all the best. He.s so awesome!
that was a freakin 9-minute opening song. hats off to Corden!
I don't see why a lazy comment about this chap being chubby gets 4k likes.
That was amazing
Watching the girls in the gold dance, I suddenly became a 'leg' man
pure genius!
He looked so happy in the end ❤️🥺
He’s sooo talented
Neil Patrick Harris did it better.
That was so good, made me cry at the end. I'm so proud of you James!
James: 'Law and Order' corpses?"
*most members raise hands*
hahahaha
What a massive talent, what an icon, James Corden 👏
Wow, I just adore James!
So happy for James like he deserves everything 😭❤️
yup, neil patrick harrison still has the crown for best opening song.
good try james
You're awesome and great at everything, James Corden!! Funny and Fab this is ;D
James Corden isn’t funny.
He SMASHED this! AAAAHHH! James, I'm so proud of you, this was AMAZING
Why is he putting on an American accent?! 😫
Whats the name of the man here: 9:20 standing on the right of James?
Santino Fontana
I'M BLOATED AS HELL AND I CAN'T DO IT ANYMORE! XD
James Corden just represents us all. He's just a massive fan of Broadway but always wanted to be on stage and look at him now !!!! So proud
It warms my heart to see how much he truly loves theatre
Nothing will ever beat Bigger by NPH in 2013... but this was good
Yaaaas
Broadway Prime...not a bad idea lol which totally defeats the purpose of the song but still
If he don’t host the oscars ima get mad
The best late night show host with Conan and prob Fallon too.
Lovely! Our James being marvellous as usual
Omg he so talented.
elitist nonsense
He's missing a lot of his queues but not missing a single cue.
Standing ovations 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻so happy for James 😍it made me tear
WTH? This is first time my gaydar ever tazed me...
We miss u James!... come back 😘🤣
Sorry...it's good but not even close to NBH's good
How much time u took to remember the lyrics?
If he’s single I’ll take him !!!
Thank God there are Americans in this world ! Just think about how boring show business would be with them!!Thank you America for your creativity!!
4:11 that dancer just blew out his knees
James Corden always brings a true a great laugh to us all! Wow! Really he gives America much need laughter!
hope Sara n Josh n James host Tony's again asap.
Great show!! Waw!
Entertainers... The most useless of us all.
Sad to say the least.
I think the funniest part of this is when you look at the back with the when the whole ensemble is onstage and you can clearly tell who the Beetlejuice cast members are because the entire cast is dressed in black.
the commitment to alex brightmans character i-
bro he like makes new facial expressions and stuff idk i just bro
Fantastic performance from our James, I can' believe he's from High Wycombe!
Send Corden back to the UK where he belongs! He disrespects Americans and breaks the law ,We dont need him here! Plus he is a complete ahole. UK didn't want him anymore so the send him here!
Great but could you re-sync the subtitles please ? :( hard to follow
Great and all but... Is not Neil Patrick Harris Tony's 2013 opening
Wow. Comedy blows lately.
Bring back NPH. James sucks.
He seems so happy when they stands up and are clapping!!😭😭😍
Yeah but NPH does it Better
james is so incredibly talented!!
I love him in everything, but his show. Probably cause i liked Craig Ferguson that much. I love everything about James Corden, just not his show. Killed it here,
kay is small and the little jump she does as james says killing eve is really cute
its known in the industry hes a jackass lol thats why when kimmel went on his show he said hed give him money if he could name a single camerman and corden couldnt. multiple ppl who work for him say that incredibly funny and hhumble personality is an act. dont believe theatre kids people..
broadway and chill would be... deeply uncomfortable for one's seat neighbors, but not impossible
James Corden can do everything !! so very talented and funnie - never disappointed in any of his performances!!!
This would’ve been great if Neil
Patrick Harris or Hugh Jackman had hosted.
Wow, well its not so say something nice or nothing at all
Was it only me who instantly fell in love with the guy who gave James the drink. What a great actor/dancer!
This is truly a performance of a lifetime.
Hes come a long way since gavin and stacey
Corden wannabe singer. Lame.
magnificent opening !!
Whats the name of the man here: 9:20 standing on the right of James?
I did the math... and if he really had 24,601 shows on his queue... it would take him 126 years without sleeping or taking any breaks to finnish...
And so its impossible for him to finish it😂
If he did it as the average American does, and watched five hours a day, it would take him 607 years!
This is the best video for me in my history of youtube watching. Period
I love this man so much! He is ADORABLE, and so talented! He can be proud of himself!
Bravo
That is a man who WENT FOR IT
Good on you, James.
Meanwhile on American God's Techboy is rolling his eyes at New Media as her Demigod son James Corden prances across the stage.
The chuckles james did at the end of his performance made me tear up a little bit. You deserve every good thing in this world, James!! My favorite late show host!!
well deserved standing ovations
The captions on this are abysmal
James should be very proud of himself. Excellent host
what do I have to do to get Lin Manuel to host I’ll do anything
That was great. Still not better than NPH.
I've never seen someone look as happy as James does when everyone is applauding and the standing O. This guy was MADE for this!
Congratulations you just did the best TONYs Opening Number since Neil Patrick Harris!!!
I honestly just love you James you’re so adorable!
It is seriously bugging me, what is the dance break number used at 4:21!
Just got chills
The best part about it is you know James is living out his dream preforming music in front of people. and he almost cried at the end.
The thumbnail, everyone looks normal except...
BEETLEJUICE
BEETLEJUICE

Oh, James... could you get more adorable or entertaining?! YOU ARE THE BEST! Thoroughly entertaining and you are so talented. 🤩
it is a nice show, but compared to the "Neil Patrick Harris - 2013 - Tony Awards Openin" it is like The Kingdom of Far Far Away .. not getting even close to that show :(
The Englishman has talent.. 73th will be remembered.
9:51 Jame’s laugh, the best part!
This is so awesome. It shows how much he loves theater and it's beautiful to see him do it
amazing!
Umm no
