Matt McCarthy - Both Reached for the Gun

[sherriffnoldie]

The best dress for her I've seen. Accoustics are distracting Her performance is exceptional. Bravo to the two leads!

[TheGrAndJurOr]

[MrDefyinggravity1]

[JHBackingTracks]

First school performance I've heard that has a band, that does justice to the music! Well done!

[cprich22]

the reporter puppets are a big random, too stiff

but the people at the frount are good

[randomkid61]

amazing perdormace, love the song and like it says below fantastic last note :P

[awesomeusername]

best version I've ever seem :]

[LeaveN0Evidence]

Great job! You can tell you took it from the movie, it might have been nice to be more original but you guys were funny and the singing was great!!!

[tobpip2]

that last note truly is superb :)

[mattmccarthymusic]

Thank you. I truly appreciate that. I worked on that last note quite a bit in rehearsal, haha.

[tobpip2]

yes, i would imagine that would take some practice.. ha ha :)

[mcboypower]

@mattmccarthymusic so mariah!

[hihirachel]

awesome!!!!!!!!!!!

[FanOfMiLeyRay]

wow, amazing!

[Nitedreaming]

I can't understand why this doesn't show up higher in the searches. It's a fantastic version of the tune!

[mattmccarthymusic]

Thank You

[notfifi]

for a high school production - really really really impressive! :) your last note is pretty amazing. :D haha. wish i could've seen this production live!

[Niakinhyabusa7]

Hey, man! Nice job there! I just got cast as the same pert for this number in my high school revue. Your last note was pitch-perfect --- something I hope to pull off soon... :/

Great performance!

[Niakinhyabusa7]

edit: "part"

[jplaw2006]

This is great. You have good voice and I like your way of acting, too. I have seen many musicals including Chicago both on Broadway and West End. I am sure you can be a great musical actor.

[tyrizzo1]

why was mary played by a girl?

[mattmccarthymusic]

because every high school guy can't (won't) sing that high and play the role of a transvestite because they're too insecure...

I was pissed to. There was a little story behind the actress finding out who she was cast as. Check out the comments below.

[tyrizzo1]

lol whip those boys into shape!

[cthretard2]

Lots of schools (at least around where I'm from) have a lot fewer guys than girls in their drama departments, which sometimes leads to the gender of characters changing from script to performance. It's not easy to cast guy parts when there're so few guys. A lot of directors change the genders. Sad :(

I'm guessing there were different reasons here b/c of the video poster's comment but that guy to girl ratio can really mess things up in high school theater, too

This is an amazing performance btw

[smatty12891]

very well put together

bravo

[mattmccarthymusic]

Thanks. We actually had little to do with that. All the credit goes to our director, Betsy Cornwell, who is freakishly talented especially for a high school drama teacher...

[bluecheif88]

way too much emotion

[mattmccarthymusic]

haha, gotta love high school musicals

[Mikaylee]

This is probably the best video of this act that I've seen. I've watch many people try to recreat this song, and they usually don't do it right. HEY! I'm mormon, and I knew Sunshine was a transvestite! ;) Great job! You have a very nice voice.

[moulinrougechicago]

Why is Mary Sunshine played by a female, I hate that lol she's meant to be a drag queen haha

[mattmccarthymusic]

haha I KNOW! It's funny because the actress is this little naive mormon girl who didn't realize that the role she got was of a transvestite. Man was she PISSED when she found out, hahahaha.

[moulinrougechicago]

hahah nice, well I really like it tho lol you gys did a great job!

[maxkitty223]

Her expression makes me laugh, what a pout xD

Brilliant! It does copy the film a lot, but it still looks great.

[Jerey4Videos]

Wow! Is that really you?! you're almost as good as Richard Gear :D :D :D WOW!!! It was really amazing!

[FRANNXXX]

wow, amazing, best school version i've seen!

[mattmccarthymusic]

haha wow thanks a lot

[emilylouise123]

great! roxie was amazing as a doll!

[hammyg]

loved it. really nicely done. the actress playing roxie did a brilliant job :)

[ohjoey]

This copies the film too much I think.

[anticliche321]

good but the blond wig looks like cardboard

[mattmccarthymusic]

oh yeah, that wig was a bitch. High school props...you know.

[chicacutie101]

hey that was really good. i really loved it!!

[gon1981]

Nice! Check my vids. I was Billy Flynn in our spanish version of Chicago.

[highlandsman09]

not as good as your 'Razzle Dazzle', but still pretty darn good!
