A 2019 Broadway review of Finding Neverland's musical number "What You Mean to Me," performed by J as Peter Pan alongside Mary (Karcher Perkins) and Sylvia (Sarah Jane Hale). The song explores imagination, love, and fear, using "the second star on the right" as a metaphor for hope and guidance.
J obviously becomes the famous Peter Pan. In the number "What You Mean to Me," J and Mary, played by Karcher Perkins, and Sylvia, played by Sarah Jane Hale, share their love for each other and their influences on each other's lives.
<LYRICS>Standing here all at once, all the words run dry.</LYRICS> Something changed, can't explain, and I can't deny. Turning in circles and blurring the lines, the unspoken is calling us tonight. I'm old now, a little bit frightened, my mind Imagination, swear I'll try. A feeling enlightened, my inspiration. Can fly if we want to, I promise you, faith will give you wings. Just take the second star on the right, straight ahead to the morning light. Just take the second star on the right, straight ahead to the morning light. Every word, every sentence doesn't seem to make a difference. Nothing can explain just what you mean to me. Every shape and all the colors, all the love through all the others never expressed, just what you mean to me.
Every instinct, every feeling, breath that sees my senses really cannot even say just what you mean to me. Turning in circles and burning our eyes.
I won't lie, we will fight. My imagination swears I'll try. The feeling lightens But it's not an option. We can't fly if we won't turn our bodies to faith. We'll give you wings. Just take the second star on the right, straight ahead to the morning light. Just take the second star on the right, straight ahead to the morning light. Every star that's ever fallen knows the way to where we're going. Now I really know just what you mean to me.
