Run And Tell That - HAIRSPRAY, Broadway On Broadway 2003

[wyldghost]

She's no Taylor Parks, but she makes a great inez. :)

[TwilightGoneBad]

The movie isn't the original. Even the broadway shows etc. weren't the original, there was a film before them

[CherishBevan]

im playing little inez in my amazingly fab school production and wish i could live up to the standard of this girl :)

[jrynds]

The composers of this song (and musical) said they got the idea of this song from a book on black slang. They found the phrase, five on the black hand side, and the rest is history.

[missbella75]

DAMN, he can move !!!!!!!!!

[hellokitti333]

its not elijah singing :) (: tho elijah is pretty kool :D

[Nugget6688]

elijah is really good, i like the girl's voice 2

[hsmforever3]

yea his really really truly awesome and good!!

[hairspraydude1]

This is Chester Gregory II, the first replacement Seaweed on Broadway. This was four years before the movie even came out.

[tescarpita0696]

You have to remember this was about 3 years before the movie was even being made, so there was no elijah!

[JaQuay0930]

Ay he went to my school EVPA in Gary,IN represent!

[stephie186]

That was soooo fantastic chester and sabrina were totally amazing!!!!!

[kowannabe1120]

[megashy101]

[PrincessJasmine06]

[PrincessJasmine06]

[msict]

[queenofthecourtxD]

Sabrina I love you!! You were amazing! SUBBY SUBBY SUBBY SUBBY!!!

[lillybruce]

Great vocals and moves! You the real deal - good luck.

[sweetxxmisery]

Wow that was absolutely amazing!!

[Broadwaypianogirl411]

wow chester is preety good, he's definitely got the rythm of the song down, i would have loved to see chestor as seaweed instead of tevin when i went to see the show

[cinemaniac86]

Chester and Sabrina, you were both FANTASTIC! See, this is exactly why this is my absolute favorite song in this musical (let alone most musicals). Everyone who does it nails it brilliantly. And power to the Seaweeds! My favorite character through and through. Now I've tasted chocolate and I'm -never- going back =P.

[marshall1559]

amazing

[tigger907]

who's the girl?

[ChesterG]

This is me, EARLY one Sunday morning. I had NO idea it would end up on Youtube like this, but I'm glad people are enjoying it. I wanted to do more but we were under strict guidelines at the time. My voice is in the movie as well, in the detention scene, a song called "Breakout". I was also in all the background vocals for the movie and was on the Today show with Elijah. All the "Seaweeds" support each other. LOL! Thanx for the positive energy.

[JustAPrayer]

That was you. My god, man, you're awesome up there! Great job!

[Nitefeatherz]

Nothing like waking up and singing ridiculously early in the morning hehe when everyone wants to still be sleeping!

I love this song. =D

[guusbok]

Super performance!!!!!!!!

[lpobz0]

all things are equal when it comes to love

[ehardinlynch2011]

I love this song. This is our recital producton this year and thats the high schoolers. The thing is i am lil inez because my teacher said i would be the one who would get into it and she could trust me to get in to it and act it out.the only thing is i am no black but oh well no offense to anyone. haha but i am so bervous i have to make my own dance and i dont know what to do suggetions?

[pietravis]

i thought that girl was pretty good, she did it LIVE, and the girl in the movie was good too but she had the luxury of lip synching and editing

[spoonfulofsass]

OMG!!! I love hairspray!!! DOn't you!!!

[thefoole]

Singing live while dancing your heart out is extremely challenging. He makes it look easy.

[rjaco9]

hes really good .

coz it's hard to sing live .

hes fantastic .

[me100200300]

lovelove <3

[lianghwei]

[brittonvs]

elijah has a better upper range.

better annunication.

[screaminPirate]

[okonh0wp]

[mattharnizzle]

of course

[BritishPenguin]

i saw the broadway play - it was awesome!

[Mayab700]

coool

[dontgochanging]

They have really good energy and the guy singing has an amazing voice. Very impressed, I wish I had been able to see this on stage!

[Sparrowfire]

This guy has an amazing voice! I can't believe it, I love that voice so much

[iluvthebassplayer]

I think what people forget when comparing this to Elijah, is that Elijah got to record in a studio and then just dance on set, this guy is dancing and singing all at the same time and it is a lot harder than it looks.

[Green0693]

I met Chester-

got a picture with him-

and saw him in Hairspray

=]

[anointedwarrior15]

um..Elijah Kelley does SO much better.

[lilangel56351]

I won't let that happen ever again. Expect me front and center supporting as much as I can in the future performances.

[kjacks92]

I liked it. They are great. Inez should have sang into the microphone more. I couldn't really hear her. Great dance moves.
