It’s safe to say, collectively, we’ve seen better days. But as much as this time has been filled with angst and fear, it’s also yielded some beauty, not the least of which has come unsurprisingly from artists.
One such artist is Ben Platt, who’s been taking to his social media to share those Tony-winning pipes with his millions of followers. The “Saturday song,” as he calls the at-home performances, span genres and eras and the only thing they really do have in common is that they’re gorgeous (duh).
From Ariana Grande to Adele to Paul McCartney to Sam Smith, Platt isn’t afraid to try his hand at the heaviest hitters—probably because he knows he can keep up. See for yourself below. And be sure to follow Platt on Twitter (@BenSPLATT) and Instagram (@bensplatt) for more installments in the Saturday songs catalogue.
