The Book of Mormon opened on Broadway in 2011, created by Trey Parker, Matt Stone and Robert Lopez, and I Believe quickly became one of its signature numbers. Sung by the earnest missionary Elder Price, the song lists his convictions with increasing intensity, moving from scripture to personal beliefs that grow more implausible. The Tony Awards performance helped introduce it beyond theatre audiences, and the clip later circulated online as shorthand for misplaced certainty. It endures because that sincere delivery works just as well as satire as it does in the show itself.

A clip of I Believe from The Book of Mormon musical, performed at the 65th Tony Awards, used in memes and edits about unwavering, over-the-top confidence.
This eight-second clip captures the opening of I Believe, the show-stopping solo from The Book of Mormon, as performed live at the Tony Awards. A confident male voice sings over bright, swelling musical theatre accompaniment, building quickly from a simple declaration into a larger, almost absurdly earnest statement of faith. The delivery is sincere and theatrical, with clear diction and a rising melody that makes the confidence feel both inspiring and slightly ridiculous. That contrast is what gives the clip its power, turning a moment of musical theatre conviction into a punchline for videos about people who are absolutely certain, even when they probably should not be.
