"was this on broadway" NO BUT IT FUCKING SHOULD BE

Alfie singing at the festival of remembrance is amazing.

Jeff spent some time in Switzerland trying to get over writer's block. It rained almost constantly and depressed him. He said when he saw the sun and blue sky, he so inspired he wrote "Mr Blue Sky" and 14 other songs. What a gift they have been to us. Oh, by the way an unaltered mind was needed to compose this masterpiece. 😊❤

The way the British accent doesn't close the words with hard sounds almost counters the tone of the song.

Best description of Avenue Q I ever heard was so simple and so accurate. "Sesame Street for Adults". This is my all time favorite Broadway show.

According to Wikipedia, when this was produced, ELO had seven members. But they probably used a lot of studio musicians in this production as well.

You are so not smart.

We watched this in drama class one day when the theater was being painted and we couldn't go in there, and my favorite bit is still the one where he's like '...cat.' CAUSE LIKE. ITS ONE CAT ITS SO FUNNY ...anyways this play very much gives me An Actor's Nightmare vibes and I think its a coincidence that this came up in my recommended since An Actor's Nightmare was my drama class final (I was Meg)

5:12 i would like to point out that the lighting makes it looks like the bottom half of his legs are burnt looking and i think thats really fun

:) Thanks for this reaction.

I've found over the years that while this album is often underrated against the more illustrious Floyd's releases, and because of the state of the band at this point (which made this album essentialy a solo project by Waters) it also showcases the peak of some of the most overlooked aspects of the band's songwriting. Mainly Roger's poetry, which was by now as sharp as it could be. Some of these lyrics will easily move you to tears.

I miss pippa soo🥹🥹🥹one of those voices I would randomly start to think about

OMG Alright, thatwas unreal and I need to tell you that you are one of my favourite reactionists. Thanx so much.Funny little thing I like in this was Adam little part,he is so underrated .Great watching anythjng he does.He and he sweet wife are my favpeople.Again thankyou 💕

I will stand by this. British and Aussie accents just do not work for this song. The ends of the words just arent sharp enough for the tone. At least in my opinion. Im probably aloje because im not a music person. Feels wild to say though

If any good came out of Leap of Faith being a big flop Warren Leight wanted to work together with Raúl again and wrote a character that he thought would showcase his abilities. He wasn't wrong either, what was only going to be a four episode guest star role turned into a six season regular.

No one is ever ready for this song lol

Someone needs to do a compilation vid of people who only know Raúl Esparza as ADA Barba reacting to this

I'd give my left arm to see Raúl Esparza's Broadway performance

I like the hunchback of Notre Dame

THE HEIGHT DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ARAGON AND ANNE IS HILARIOUS 😅

"Is that a knife? ....Why is he armed?" Have you never seen actual Romeo and Juliet!?!?!?

The name is "Louis Clark Senior" - folks... Also "Richard Tandy" were all part of the writing these orchestral bits. Jeff wrote the words and melody of the song and produced the record and of course had the genius to hire Louis Clark Senior and combine orchestra with his songs. (he plays by ear and does not read music in the classical sense.)

This has to be one of my favorite musicals of all time. It does a great job of building the already beautiful music from the Disney movie and transform it into something even better. It’s darker than the Disney movie, but it also keeps the hopefulness and light.

The gunner was literally falling from the sky into the corner of some foreign field

"NOW it gets weird?" LOL

“He won’t say know” that line makes me shiver each time and sets the abuse she has had and will. Then to be beheaded for being sexually assaulted by someone she saw as a friend and you know court gossip whispered in Henry’s ear.😢😢

Honestly and sadly I genuinely believe it’s a height thing. For Hollywood (and yes Broadway is absolutely influenced by Hollywood bc that’s how they sell the tickets with “famous people” to have their bucket list moment) height still (and stupidly) matters and he’s too short for them at 5’10”. He is head and shoulders more talented than those that have gone on to replace him on Broadway or in movies bc 1. They are already famous so they bring what the marketers consider to be a bigger draw; and 2. They visually “look the part”. Both of these i believe to be holkywood's own stupidity getting in their own way. JJ is one of thousands that are overqualified and incredibly talented and likely will never receive the recognition deserved.

This movie is a real magical spectacle, especially seeing it for the first time as a kid.

Great review first heard this album when i was 13 thanks for the memories ❤❤

In 2013 Kate Kellaway interviewed Tim for a Guardian article. She emailed Daoust to ask for his reaction to this song. Daoust responded, "The song makes me wince a bit, though not because I've actually listened to it," he replied. "Life's too short and I've already done my bit by sitting through that show in Edinburgh."

Wow, just wow ....Esparza by far the Best performance ever...Saw both and hands down Raul was phenomenal....

Gotta respect a man who knows a Devo reference

His mind is going to be blown when gets the actual dates of what he’s talking about lol Research is a very neglected things when these videos are made. I get a reaction, but then to go into things like “this is early, old, …. 30 years before Harry Potter” a little google search would save you from looking kinda silly 👍🏻

"Hopefully not too much drama" lmao

Imagine a production of Rent with Kirstin as Joanne, Mitch as Angel, Scott as Roger, and Matt as Collins. I don't know who else would be in the cast, but that's a great start. Heck, have Kevin provide all the percussion.

What were we on in the 70s to imagine these awesome jams & bring them to life.?. we had more freedom to explore our imaginations & then comes the relentless practicing, which is where todays yutes come up short... and the hootch we had was criminally weak compared with the new crops, giddyup Behind the curve & keep on rockin

Mitch got dimples. Love it

I bawl every time I hear that song.

Stunning masterpiece ✨️ This gives me glimpses of the Divine and the beauty of the next life💜

12:29 aside from The Picture of Dorian Gray as other have mentioned, you ask “was Oscar Wilde that vain?” yes. Also, his final words on his deathbed were famously: “Either those curtains go, or I do”

2:46 that is the only known photograph of Emily Dickinson. She was unknown in her time and pretty much a recluse. After she died, her sister got her work published - that’s why no one at the party pays any attention to her, including the cameraman (most of the time she’s on screen you only see part of her face) it’s a great, subtle running joke. Sean & Sinead are absolutely brilliant writers.

This show is so much better than almost everything on tv. If you know nothing about any of these authors the show is really good, but the more you know about them the better it gets. Heck, just read the Wikipedia entry for each author after the first episode of this and you’ll get more of the jokes going forward. Plus you’ll learn something. Win-win.

During this stage of their development ELO used a full orchestra and chorus in all their recordings. The musical direction and string arrangements were done by Louis Clarke and all songs were written by Jeff Lynne who is also the leader and lead vocalist of the band.

Queens of the Tobago

Roger Waters is synonymous of the number one in the musical universe, as simple as that. Roger Waters forever.

This scene was both hilarious to me as a kid, and horrifying. I still have a completely irrational fear of going to the dentist.

“leave a video response” just catapulted me back in time holy hell i forgot those were a thing
