Lord be kind to him in puberty! His voice is bananas!!

I love how there's that laugh when he comes out...and then the kid starts singing. And you hear that collective 'Whoa.'
-
This is the same kid who sang the part of Angelica in the Miscast Schuyler Sister's performance

I hope this kid gets to play Jean Val Jean someday when he's older
-
"i'm a stronger man by far" 😂

My reaction to this: *Valjean walks on stage* Me: Ha! That kids cute *Valjean starts singing* Me: *Mouth drops* ... Me: Holy crap
-
It's so embarrassing when you lose to a 13-year-old kid.
-
When Joshua sings the word "done" I literally almost cry because of the glorious vibrato.
-
Im sorry but why does this 13 year old have the best vibrato I've ever heard?!
-
oh my god the POWER in his voice, good lord what a belt range! and an even vibrato, wonderful breath support and phrasing, wow he's like the child version of Gavin Creel I am losing my shit right now
-
this is incredible, but I think Javert has a bit to much time on his hands if he spends 10 years hunting down a 12 year old kid over a loaf of bread...
-
"I am warning you Javert, I'm the stronger man by far." "Dude ... you're thirteen ..."
-
1:42 HE EVEN HAS A GROWL HOLY
-
Joshua is absolutely amazing. But does anyone else agree that Javert is also very good as well?
-
It's really sad, because I feel like the older he gets, the less impressed people will be by his voice, even though it's still going to sound amazing.
