Thought David Easter was better than Robert Torti personally. This guy's good - a shame though he didn't double up as Levi, which all other Pharoah's did. Makes for a lot more fun to see the cast in dual roles.

[nutter715854]

Dean Collinson is awesome! ;) I saw this a few years ago, sat in the front row and he winked at me! I'll never forget it! XD

[merlinmadmaniac]

Which song does this come after in the story?

[aliciah10]

@merlinmadmaniac it dont

[firsttenor76]

I'd rather heart Robert Torti sing this.

[Chivalryaintdead]

@Nahalu44o He pronunciation is perfect, not sure what you mean about incomprehensible.

[thatboiyoungloc]

I wonder if my schools performance of this will make it on youtube, i played the part of Pharoah and it was a great part, sadly this song was not in it, but standing ovation three nights in a row, it was tremendous

[Peadarisback]

where does this song come...In Joseph?

It's only for the London 2007 revival isn't it? Is it between "Pharoh's dreams explained" and "stone the crows" ?

[waterwind2266]

@Peadarisback That seems to be the only logical explanation. My dad did this show in high school in '84, and they were using the London script/score. This wasn't isn't, so it must be from the revival.

[CookieSherbert]

When I saw Dean, I was fourth row from the front, and I made the peace sign to him, and he made the peace sign back, I was like, kewl! =D He is such a good Pharoah lol!

[harrypottergirl09]

The dutch song is so great this one cool! The Dutch name is: stapel op mij!

[MusicFan2407]

Dean is the best Pharaoh ever! He is billiant at the comic side of the role. And his voice ... my god, his singing is sensational! When Joseph returns to the West End (hopefully that will be sooner rather than later) he sould play Pharaoh again! WELL DONE DEAN!

[sdrhead]

Are there any clips of his Song of the King?

[neverforget1996]

love it jokes

[DutchLoyal]

Dean is even better than here in this video. This song was just new when this was recorded. Now he made it his own and wow...when he makes those long high notes....brilliant! But what are people talking about, with the "original song"?

I have just seen Joseph 6 times in one week and will be going back for the last matinee show on May 30th. I will even try and get a ticket for the final show that evening. Fingers crossed.

Dean is fantastic! Steals the show, especially with this song!

[GoInAllWays]

And also, when he hits the long note, he did a higher note (probably high for his range!) very gd again!

[rejoyce318]

what the heck? the original song was much more fun and advanced the story line. sheesh.

[FabalaRose]

Where's the original song?! His performance is great, but the original song created so much more atmosphere! It was such a fantastic way to start Act II - why change it? If it's not broke, don't fix it!!!!

[DutchLoyal]

Oh Dean was soooo good! I mean Joseph ofcourse is the lead and I just saw it 3 days in a row with Gareth (his first week) and he was fantastic...but I also have to give so much credit to Dean as Mister Pharaoh Man! he does such a brilliant job! I very much enjoyed his perfomances!

[GoInAllWays]

Dean ruled! He impersonates Elvis so well! Very gd performance! I would love to see him again! And, well, Gareth Gates topless, don't get me started!

[CountryxSinga]

I prefer the original pharoah song... :)

this one isn't bad though

[Ranmadict]

i know he was totally awesome.

and he was really funny too (y)

[Musicallover71]

He is amazing. I saw him the 17th. just great

[MimiProductionss]

i like the faster song better

[DafBnTs]

What is Elvis doing there?.. Just Kidding, but I don't like him sorry, he is not bad but I just don't like it.

[mayda00]

This guy has totally over sang Joseph/Lee Mead/.

I saw him live and poor Lee's vocals have just disappeared comparing with Dean's voice.

[Cece221986]

They are two completely different performers with very different vocals.

I watched Lee the other night and his voice has certainly not disappeared. Perhaps you caught Lee on an "off" night. He's only human after all :)

[thedancingqueen360]

I totally agree with you. Lee's amazing and the fact that he can meet his high standards every show, eight times a week, is absolutely incredible!

[thedancingqueen360]

No Lee is so much better in my opinion. Miles better.

[Chocsii]

My breath was taken away by this guy <3 stunning powerful sexy voice. Amazing!!!!!

[SLMRlu]

I met dean today and he was really nice and had my photo taken with him and he is really good and so nice

he was really good when i saw the show :D

[janicec116]

You need to watch Wayne Smith in the Joseph Tour 2008. He's much better soon to be Antony Hansen...Bring it on!!

[jkemt5]

was he the guy that played pharoah

[CH4ZIIB34R]

Ive Seen Him , An Seen Dewan An Tbh Dean Is Better x

[majorleeblunt]

w00t w00t Dean the king :)

holla buddy from the DJ in Germany xxxx

[sazstar10]

I got that white scarf from him!!!!

[sexysexyuser]

This person is just amazin!

[Joseph6722857]

Need some work

[outdamnwench]

How pointless is this song?

[brooksand1]

i went with my great mate jen to see joseph

what a fabulous performance it was

dean played pharoh superbly what a fantastic voice and the costume looked amazing

well done dean

all the best for your future

andrew north wales

[rexel501]

No probs!

Oh yeah! Go see it - I can't recommend it enough!! :D

[Kent7776]

He looks just like elvis, perfect casting for this role!-

[rexel501]

Ah ok - well there aren't any new lyrics - it comes just after "Anyone from anywhere can make it if they get a lucky break" - and then the "This could be a happy ending, perfect place to stop the show" comes in afterwards, just before Canaan Days.

I think it's fits quite well, and doesn't seem strange when you see it.

(Have to say it again - Dean - excellent!!!!!)

[rexel501]

Erm - I mean there aren't new lyrics added to make it fit! lol Obviously the song has new lyrics!! rofl You know what I mean!! :D

[ILvThtr]

I'm not sure how I feel about this. I have been in 22 productions of Joseph and how does it actually fit in when in Stone the Crows the Narrator says:

This could be a happy ending, Perfect place to stop the show Joseph after all has gone

About as far as he can go But I'm sure that Jacob and His other sons have crossed your mind How had famine hit the family Joseph left behind?...

Anyone have the new lyrics?

[medsey55]

rockabilly

elvis has been re born , the show has revived lets see more of pharo and hear more. Elvis past on but a star is shinning in his place well done pharo (DEAN COLLINSON

[D665]

wow he is good, those who have seen the show, when does this song come in? again he is SO good

[rexel501]

After 'Stone the Crows' and before 'Canaan Days'

He is so good isn't he?!!!

:D

[D665]

[pineapplechix22]

[rexel501]

I love Dean - he's just the best!!!! His voice is so awesome!!!! He's the most amazing and talented guy. So sweet and friendly too!!! I'll never get sick of seeing him do this live!!!! :D

[pineapplechix22]

I saw this about two weeks ago live.

And hearing dean collinson live I'm not kidding you his voice gives you chills he's soo good !

[blimpsers]

i got my conputer fixed i found there was something wrong with the sound so now its briliant

[ericcollinson]

Entertainment, Light relief, a bit of fun, time for costume and scene change, And a good new song obviously enjoyed by many.

[blimpsers]

THIS SONG SO BREAKS UP ON YOUR COMPUTER

[ericcollinson]

Do you have a fault it plays fine on mine.

[reddevildavis]

I saw this yesterday and it was great! I was sat in the front row and the pharoah threw me his scarf too =]

[pineapplechix22]

I saw this two days ago at the adelphi lee was abasolutely brilliant and Dean was a fab too! His voice is great!

[watford19]

ye i agree wid the comment below me...it was amzing and topped the show off ..funny as :P

[dianaben]

Sorry folks, i completely disagree. I loved the song and think it fits in perfectly! Go Dean!

[ericcollinson]

The expert Press critics reported that the song time, was required for scene changes and costume changes. so what beter than a NEW ALW/Rice composition that obviously pleased the majority.

[amyrebeca91]

I think dean was great in the show but there was really no need for this song- it just interuped the flow of the musical.

[ladybebetter]

When you hear a song for the first time, it never connects very well. It takes some familiarity to be able to warm to it. I didn't warm to this new one at Joseph particularly, because I hadn't heard it before, but it has endeared itself to me since. And I had the privilege of hearing Dean Collinson sing it at the ALW radio gala, when he was superb (and very funny)!

[joeknowswhoheis]

Battycys (if thats your name?), how can you not have enjoyed that?!! Yes Lee was amazing and was fantastic but you can't have clapped for dean just to get off coz he was just as good! And talking about stage time is rubbish too - And as for whom ALW decided to write another song for really isn't you place to say what he should have done - You can't say you know better than ALW himself im afraid :>

[battycys]

Joe, Batty is only a nickname, the real one is Ian Nancy Sane. My comments were 'tongue-in-cheek' meant to 'wind up' Dean's many fans. He was great. This video does not do him justice. In the theatre, he sounds much better. I also know about his work with Sonia and in composing songs. It is also nice for the Really Useful Group to re-employ someone who has previously sued and criticised them.

[ericcollinson]

Batty or Sane you got it right this time all that you said is true, Dean also had a successful run in A.L.W. Whistle down the wind, and Despite earlier probs Dean has great respect for A.L.W. and the Really Useful company.

[joeknowswhoheis]

Mmmkay lol thanks for clarifying it lol but i never knew he had sued them? What for?

[battycys]

Joe's best friend, I think Dean got injured moving and falling off scenery which malfunctioned frequently during Whistle Down the Wind. When the camel did not come out (malfunction of revolving stage) at Joseph Opening Night, I thought, Oh Dean, please do not try to help by pushing set out! We need you to be the Pharoah.

[Johnfrb]

Really good Video showing Dean Collinson performing well as usual in everything he does also seen him supporting Michael Ball!

[Johnfrb]

Brilliant performance highlight of show I have also seen him supporting Michael Ball in concert many times very talented performer!

[battycys]

I think Dean is great in the show. However, I went to see Lee! and when Dean was singing (at one time on stage for a long time) I was just thinking when Lee will come back on again. I CLAPPED like mad when Dean finished because I know Lee will appear on stage soon. Others applauded because Dean was great. Sorry Dean, and I did not appreciate the new song for the Pharoah and thus less stage time for Lee. ALW should have written a new song for Lee instead.

[ericcollinson]

Dean collinson's Pharaoh and Elvis is EXCELLENT. I have seen this superb Andrew LLoyd Webber musical staring Lee Mead. Get tickets Now if you can.

[radar54c172]

A fantastic show Joseph did a remarkable job playing the part but my opinion Dean Collinson played a most commanding part in the second half of the show.

[dianaben]

Brilliant Pharoah. Up there with Lee as Joseph any day.

[Maxkustrap]

Cool!
