  • His facial expressions and mannerisms seem odd here but they are not meant to be seen with a telescopic lens.  They are meant to be seen from the center of the audience.

  • THERE IT IS!!!

  • His voice always makes me emotional.

  • its like the changing times in the play the tinfoil glamor and brightness of the emcee at the start now things are sour and dark...its so awesome

  • By this point everyone has been beaten down and there is raw emotions coming from all the characters. I can understand why the audience laughed when he entered if they are not familiar with the story. I had the privilege of sound designing for Cabernet at Kent State University and I loved being in the theatre every night mixing this song live being sang by a great actor and singer. Make no mistake this is a very serious scene and he sings with a great deal of pain.

  • @prosentertainment im singing this for an upcoming audition and i have no idea what the song is about, i love it but its hard to understand the meaning of it, has it got anything to do with the emcee or is it just abouts sally? can you help!!?

  • @TheNadieboo It's a warning ( as Sally particularly) not to expect too much commitment- this should come as no surprise to anyone who has known her for 5 minutes, of course. But I guess it also has wider reference to a time when maybe alot of people thought they'd better hungrily and greedily, as it were, experience a lot of things quickly before the opportunities vanished with the new political times.

  • it's a shame that there is no time for applause at all... this was amazing!!!! bone chilling!

  • I saw Raul in Twelfth Night for Shakespeare in the Park. It was incredible. Ever since doing Bobby in Company he has been my idol!

  • I love how everyone laughs when he enters, expecting to be entertained, then he does such a chilling, heart wrenching performance. Wow!

  • I agree completely.

  • ahhhh i love raul as the emceeeee!

  • "Haunting" is the perfect word. For the voice, the lyrics and the performance. I thank you much for this posting.

  • he looks so eerie, like he's channeling a blue glow.

    fantastic performance.

  • and only raul could channel a blue glow, let's be honest

    : ) !!!!

  • I LOVE that man... omg... his voice can be so haunting when he wants it to be.

    THank u for this Vid!!!

  • THANK YOU for posting this!!!!!!! When I saw Raul do this on Broadway I was profoundly moved because it was packed full of everything that had occured up to that point in the show... it was more than just the latest replacement actor singing a deceptively simple song! Watch this and then watch some of the others posted and if you don't understand why this is so brilliant you have some catching up to do!!

  • Thank you so much for posting this and all the Raúl vids. It is much appreciated. <3
