Heh. Sad, that's the best you came up with. Oh look, another paragraph. Uh, not anymore, it's more than 2 sentences. Internet children are not worth my time :)
By the way, this video still sucks even 2 years later. And it's not even just the censoring this time, these people cannot even sing it correctly, with the right pitch, tone, or timing.
I think it's cool that they did that for the one word. If you think about the other meaning, it kinda makes a point about how the adults were censoring them from that whole topic. That's just what occured to me.
Hi! My name is Alex Oyen and I directed this piece and I'm the one with the guitar. I just wanted to say thank you to everybody who has watched this video. We did this in our sophomore year of high school and I haven't watched it since. I am so surprised/proud to see that it's received over 50,000 views. We've all headed off to college now, and I am feeling so nostalgic watching it. So, whether you loved it or you hated it- here's to the pursuit of trying. Thank you guys :)
haha!! you guys did a great job with that. i dont know if my school could ever pull this off. our thes-fest is coming up. sure wish we could have planned something like this!
seeing spring awakening on tour, i actually like this for a high school! sure i dont get the point of being able to say shit and not fuck, but w/e, the vocals and performance were definately there...just not all the words
you have to admit.... the reality is high schools cant do everything, but their creativity was smash ON and it did not bother me one bit. Every percussive beat..... and your mind FILLED IN THE FUCKS.
Yeah, even without the fucks it was pretty balls-y. I'm totally there with you. My school wouldn't even consider singing "The Song Of Purple Summer," which is the most PG-rated song.
This was the BEST performance at Opening!!!!! It was waaaaaaay better live. The drumsticks were amazing. And it was funny when he didn't say the whole word. you didnt expect it. Florida State Thespians RULE!!!!!
Thank you Floridians! What a creative way to teach CURRENT and Relevant theater to our kids. I just want to thank you for the courage and after seeing the original cast twice in NYC, I loved your video!!!!!!!
by "Current" I meant it is from a very very recent Broadway Season....not like most high schools who do stuff only from 1955, or 1965, or 1975..... flash forward to only two seasons ago..... THAT IS CURRENT BROADWAY.... and not many high schools are doing that.
It was a lot better in person but the acoustics of the drumsticks and the video camera's sound quality make a bad video but it was really good in person of course its better to hear the actual lyrics but it was the best they could've done for the song.
Why even do a song that has to be censored? The drumsticks are a really cheesy distraction and they take away the power of the teenage angst the characters in Spring Awakening are trying to express.
if you think about this, it actually is good. i mean the concept of it is great. the performance was good. and the singing obvs is good. idk why some ppl dont like it. i tohught it was good.
This was an amazing concept. I think it would have been more effective if the drum sticks had only been used in place of the "F" word. Sometimes, less is more. Still an awesome concept and the voices were outstanding!
haha so they could say every other swear but fuck, i actually liked how they did, but omg the fucking hitting the drum sticks together was osoooooo annoying and sometimes it was sooo off beat it sounded awful, this would of been awesome if u guys just left the drum sticks out and omg 1:35 was amazing he saangg that note
Who cares if it's censored? Of course it's censored, it's a youth conference (not that I agree with censorship, but I'm sure it's inappropriate to perform this in front of an entire young audience without prior warning.) I think they did an awesome job, actually, and it must have been really fun to perform.
I think you guys shoulda have done it with the word anyway for real...once you started it they wouldnt have stopped you...i mean isnt that what the show is about? Not conforming to offend people?
i was in this piece, fourth girl from the left, red belt.
we really wanted to say the word, believe me, we were just as angry that we couldn't. we were all ready for districts, ready to say the word, when about a week before we went to compete, our director ordered us to take the word out. we didn't want to offend anyone, especially any particularly conservative judges...
So what they didnt say Fuck. This was my favorite act on opening night! Definately deserves what they got...Critics choice! Im assuming you all got superiors at state as well!?
I proudly represented for the last time District 12 Troupe 5445.
This is a really good variation of the song. You guys did an amazing job! Don't worry about the idiots who are being rude because if they had any brains at all they would realize that you are a little young to be screaming obscenities, and that your parents might not be happy with that. Anyway you all did a fantastic job with this wonderful song.
They're fucking high school students. If you're not shouting obscenities by the time you're in high school, then you need to die. Besides, this song loses all meaning without the word fuck. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!!!!
For your information asshole, they had to censor the word because it was a showcase (PG-rated to not offend the families) of the best of the best from each district in Florida and they happened to be the best of the best in their district.
I agree with you and the others who appreciated the great talent to get that song performed for HIGH schoolers. I loved it, it was everything and I am one who usually doesnt like censorship of art.
When I saw the link to this video, I was like "no way!"
Then I opened the link and realized that this was from the Florida State Thespian Festival! I was there when you guys did this song. I was one of the thousands of people cheering for you guys. Amazing job and keep it up!
We should have a get together at State this year. Say, my troupe and your troupe?
sorry, but don't perform the song if you cannot say "fuck"...even if you wanted to and it was the schools fault...you have to have enough respect for the song to not perform with censorship...and if you can say shit, then you should be able to say fuck.
Just wanted to point out that the Broadway cast also censored the small portion of this song that was in the medley that they did for the Tony Awards.
that is disappointing...even if they did use the actual lyrics, the station would have bleeped them out. there should be no reason why they should have to change the song; i don't even think children watch the Tony awards :P
@shadylane1321 They covered their mouths and didnt say the words. And in another performance on the Good Morning show they said "Stuck" and "life" instead of ass.
@maidensnowflake The deal with the censorship is that the judges disapprove of the language. This is a performance competition and the judges have to give you a good rating in order to move on to the next level. It's not the school's fault, it's the judges fault. You don't HAVE to censor your performance, but if one word was standing in the way of a Best Overall rating, which is what they got for this performance, then I would leave it out. I was at this festival and I thought it was fantastic!
defenatly agree i understand y they couldn't say fuck but w/ out it the song isn't the same n the sing was pretty good but some of it was spoken n not really sung
I'm really not suprised by the talent that is here. State Festival was and has been the best times of my life, and nothing can take that away. You guys did fantastic DP.
All of you! that was great... I can't wait until I can chaperon State Festival!
Florida State Thespians State Festival. Largest of its kind in the US.
Truly the best time of the year for high school thespians! about 7,000 students take over the city of Tampa, FL for 4-5 days of debauchery and random singing in the streets.
This is the opening ceremony where the top performers in the state are chosen to perform.
the singing was really good, and it was great acting, great overall performance, and i know its just a high school thing and youre not allowed to say "the word" but youre allowed to say the other words? I also thought the sticks where a creative way to make a filler for it, but i thought it was kinda dumb in that that kind of use for the drum sticks are the kind of thing i see in my sister in 2nd grade's school plays. nice job altogether though =]
well we didnt want to disqualify our TROUPE from anything in the actual competition. two of our seniors happened to win best duet acting, and we would have have been disappointed if we had been the ones to make them lose.
this was really cool. can i remind all the haters that they did the same thing on the tonys. it didnt take away from the song at all. the energy ws still there. great job!
Thank you so much for taping this. i didnt have my camera with me that day so i couldnt get it. We, troupe 4276, were sitting a few rows down from u from the view of the camera. thank u again!
This, like, restores my faith in people my age. I have never seen high schoolers do anything this excellent XD OH MY GOD THIS IS AWESOME. Those sticks were SUCH a good idea!
yeah that was pretty awesome!!!! it was great sharing the stage with you guys!!! i'm from district 11 troupe 5476 we did "run, freedom, run". congrats on your superior!!! =D
Its an awesome idea and you guys did a great job im glad someone posted this cause i didnt get to see opening ceremonies my only notes are rhythm needed to be cleaned up and
Melchior need to have a much louder liberated YES!!! at the end, but other than that it was very cool all great voices and cool ideas.

If I may ask, why did you film this? I mean, I don't mean to be rude, but you're not in our troupe. It was a really nice thing to do :)

Well, last year I filmed part of Bat Boy just cause it was really good. Plus, I am friends with Alex and Lily.

I understand that this was school related and had to be censored, but it pretty much defeats the purpose of the song. fascist school systems!
