  • i love this song its my favorite

  • Anyone else hear a bit of foreshadowing in Penny's last line of this song?

  • NO PENNY! Did you not hear about SOPA? Or PIPA? At least ACTA or THE END OF THE 2012 WORLD!!!!1!!1!!1!!1!1!!!!!!

  • Penny, you poor deluded sap. XD

  • I just went through the entire musical in about an hour. (like with clips). I can't stop, it's too good! :D

  • thumbs up if chrisiechan brought u to this :P

  • Realistic vs Dreamer

  • You got the name wrong. :( It's ''My Eyes''

  • Optimism versus pessimism... well, I've never seen this movie, but I can see that's what it's about... ^^

  • @Seventail7 You can watch it for free pretty much anywhere on the web, 'cause that's where it was released. I'd recommend it if you have some time to kill.

  • @narwhal17 I cant help but wonder if he's making a crack about fluoride in the opening lines

  • MALCOM REYNOLDS

  • This song can be called either "On the Rise" or "My Eyes". It really doesn't matter what it's called, does it? It's an amazing song. So listen to it and don't look at the title if it bothers you.

  • @themagicmeow That'd be like if if you said the Dr. Horrible show could be called Captain Hammer, instead. People would understand what you mean, but it's not how you should do it. My Eyes is the actual name

  • This song really speaks to me.... Dr.Horrible is so right.

  • Id love to sing this as a duet for the talent show!

  • dr horrible's vision of the world was more accurate

  • The name of this song is "My Eyes" not "On the Rise"

    Come on dude :/

  • I love Neil Patrick Harris. I wish I could marry him. <3

  • @mollyblaxland Sorry to tell u he's gay

  • @MONSTERDESTROYER100 Yes I know that. That's why I said "I wish".

  • Must...resist....pressing replay button...for 15th time....resist....must...ah forget it, PLAY IT AGAIN!!!

  • And THIS was the making of Barney Stinson.

  • @sweetpeariot or at least how he tells it. :)

  • @sweetpeariot That's why he's such a manhoe. To fill the empty gap that only Penny could fix!!!!

  • I never said it was impossible, guys, just difficult. Especially stuck in one pose for X amount of time. Standing is different than lying down (of which I've had to do both frozen). And the natural reflex to loud noises is to flinch. A lot of time and care must be put into a freezing scene for it to look proper and, you know, real.

  • 0:00 - 1:00 was the best part

  • @roaminkage correction...... the best part is 0:00 - 2:47

  • Uummm....That's the wrong name. It's called "My Eyes" Sorry, but the name made this song...A little more then difficult to find. Please fix this, thanks.

  • @LactaAleaEst No, on the CD it's even listed as "On the Rise"

  • why**

  • wht would you rewrite it its a masterpiece!!!! :D

  • @BigRockBullCrap One must adapt things for the stage.

    Good luck 'freezing' Captain Hammer, Devilhunter318. Staying still for so long is rather tough, I've found.

  • @mysticwolf2314 i once spent an entire act of a play not moving it's doable

  • @mysticwolf2314 And Nathan Fillion is a professional.

  • im rewriting this as a play for my high school

  • Sang this with my cousin... stupid video camera was broken though...

  • any dult with half a brain can see that the human kind has gone insane, this song = Epic

  • "Balls."

  • Literally spent 3 hours in the car yesterday with my friend learning NPH's part while he sang the girl's part, repeating it over and over and over until we had it down, no music, and performed it for his mom. Great song, and now it's stuck in my head. It's a shame I hadn't heard this earlier!

  • @Gnoizic so you listened to that about 64.7 times?

  • @snarf533 Definitely felt that way. Especially when he'd restart the song every time one of us screwed up, then we'd take a break, try a part without the music, then restarted. I will never forget this song now though!

  • @Gnoizic video!

  • @Gnoizic

    It helps a whole lot if you write it down and review it outloud and read it at the same time. I memorize songs by simply using them in simple stories I write and reading the story with the song.

  • @Gnoizic Yeah, I learned it too. Try doing Brand New Day. That took a long while for me to get down pat.

  • :D Hatena's theme song

  • Sorry youtube for breaking your repeat button!

  • I love NPH - He + Felicia Day + Nathan Filion are the main attractions, not the story itself, the fact that the main heroes can sing well is a great bonus!

  • Wheezy!

  • @rednight0985 Waiter?

  • @EmotionsNeverLie think so... I'm here because of him :)

  • NPH, whyyyy do you have to be gay. :(

  • @sniim Because that's the way the Dread Lord Cthulhu made him.

  • Dr. Horrible's parts better

  • @Hypercookiechick agreed. I could have his part of this song memorized if I could. I actually love this song.

  • @TheEsperanza243 yeah... I have both his parts and Penny's memorized... I actually have all the songs memorized... I listen to them a lot, I'm a nerd. xD

  • This is the point, even the villain is really just a human, even the darkest demon has a twinkle of good in them.

  • @Kaern15 the joker, killer croc, carnage, ect.

    i see no human in any of them and certainly no twinkles of hope

  • @kimagetsu Didn't The Joker fall in love with someone once? My friend told me that. @.@

  • @SaiyanSquadHD2 he fell in love with harley quinn briefly or rather she's in love with him and he's just using her so they're more like partners

  • my favorite part to sing is the duck's.

  • Oh, i love it. :)

    It's so beautiful !

  • I'm sorry, Penny, but this world is growing anything but wise...

  • This song is called " My eyes"....

  • @bluesoul102704

    I was so confused when i read "on the rise". I thought: wow, a new song? :D

  • The 6 dislikes were Captain Hammer. 

  • I like Moistman.

  • One of the most perfect songs I've ever heard. Can't get enough of it!

  • During the part where Dr. Horrible and Penny both sing contrasting lyrics (I cannot believe me eyes, how the world's filled with filth and lies/is the world finally growing wise), I always sing Dr. Horrible's lines. Does that make me a pessimist?

  • @CobaltX07 Not at all. It's NPH, really, which part are you going to choose? Sugary sweetness, or Dr. Horrible? Plus his lines just...completely overshadow hers with a force you simply can't deny.

  • I bet the only reason why six people disliked this was because Penny was with Captain Hammer at the time of this song and Dr. Horrible (A.K.A Billy) was by himself felling like crap that the love of his life was with his nemesis.

  • This is one of my favorite songs! I also like Brand New Day and Slipping! NPH- you rock!

  • Anyone in or around the Kingston, Ontario area wanting to see a LIVE production of Dr. Horrible with a live band send me a message for details!

  • The song is called My Eyes isn't it?

  • @chiquitita3339 Yeah thats right.

  • @chiquitita3339 Yes, it's called "My Eyes" :)

  • I honestly dont think that making a sequel would be a good idea for Doctor Horrible's Sing Along Blog. The end seems pretty evident the first time around.

  • @VonShteinen Agreed, but I also like a clean "After the tale" story. It would be great if they just did a little thirty minute sum up of the world in its current situation

    Though you can see this as just "Doctor Horrible Rises" and the sequal will be how he deals with his new power and if he actually sticks to his guns on the whole social change aspect of his origin.

    I want them to do the same for avatar and harry potter, just something to show how everyone is doing in their slow lives post war

  • @Eoph I heard that there would be a sequal. Is that true or just a rumor?

  • @VonShteinen Dr. Horrible 2: Dr. Horrible-er lol

  • Could you right the lyrics for this one please?? And thanks??

  • I'm joining drama next year,and I am FORCING the teacher to allow us to do this masterpiece of a musical!Even the "Hammer being my penis" part!

  • @projec64 imma look up sheet music for this musical and make my choir teacher get it XD

  • @projec64 our school did it :) it was absolutly amazing! even the " Hammer being my penis" part.. haha we had the most amazing and talented kids do it.. very funny and worth it :) good luck ;)

  • I want a version of JUST the doctor's part. X3

  • The album version isn't quite the same as in the movie... phooey. I like the movie one better.

  • isnt there supposed to be a number 2 coming out??? like this if u want a number two!!!!!

  • @joshwadams - provided it doesn't suffer from sequelitis. I'm not really sure what the sequel would be about; Dr Horrible's character arc seems pretty much complete tbh.

  • @PuissantAlgernon Moist, his Evil Moisture Budy.

  • @PuissantAlgernon It's Joss Whedon, I think we are safe expecting excellence.

  • @joshwadams Your comment is a year old, but where did u get this info?

  • @ValhallaProduction11 I think it might of been San Diego Comic-Con 2010 or 2011 where someone asked Whedon "Dr. Horrible 2?" and he replied something along the lines of "About that...yes." I don't have a source, but I did see it.

  • The sequel has been confirmed several times by the actors and directors.

  • they doing an act 4? if so where?

  • Rumor is it will be in 2011.

  • @Evilliboba Joss Whedon actually said that he has no intention of ever finishing this. It's disappointing, because I love all of his work, but he's like a genius with ADD

  • @ArtistXhairs Actually, if you read up on your stuff, they are making a sequel, possibly just another online thing, or possibly a featured film which means movie theaters. They're gonna start doing it during the How I met your Mother Hiatus.

  • @afrokeith Actually, if you listen to what HE said, he specifically said that he had no intention of it being this popular, and thusly, he can't afford to continue it, because it was meant as a pet project. They will not every be continuing production on this, because of that reason.

  • Great song, shows most things are just a matter of perception.

  • just orderd the dvd, cant wait to watch it on my tv :) !!

  • MY FAVRITE SONG OF THEM ALL! ^^

  • one of mine as well

  • I love Dr. Horrible's part in this!

  • @wickedwolfgirl I love Penny's part! :P

  • @EmpressFab

    They are both GREAT singers!

  • i wish they did this as a karaoke song at my pub xD

  • @monarisa83

    i second that statement lol it would be pretty wicked :P

  • @monarisa83 Me too man... I was singing it with my girlfriend all the time... Epic song

  • this is my favorite song from this show ^_^ I hope they make more

  • The background noise is still in there. :/

  • Is it just me or is the order of the songs TOTALLY wrong on the playlist?

  • meh, the order doesn't matter!

  • They're all awesome.

  • *nod, nod* well said.

  • Dr, Steel is really cool. Look him up if you like this.

  • Wonderful song.

  • So - I bought the soundtrack and apparently this song is actually called "My Eyes" I will never think of it as that though...

  • 1. Brand New Day

    2. Slipping

    3. Laundry Day

    4.On the Rise

  • best dr horrible songs:

    'on the rise'

    'brand new day'

    'freeze ray'

    'slipping'.

    end of story.

  • You serious?You forgot Finale!

  • If your talking about "Every thing I Wanted" I don't like that one at ALL!

  • 'perfect story' is also very catchy.

  • I agree

  • Eh. That sounds good to me (:

  • This is my favorite song of the whole thing. <3

  • my sister agrees

  • Your sister has good taste. :D

  • i know it is my 2nd favorite!!!!!!! and my favorite (brand new day) is my sisters 2nd favorite! funny huh?

  • Really? xD Funny. My second favorite is Slipping.

  • haha slipping is my 3rd favorite and after that i don't have any more favorites... OH-OH and a mans gottado is tied for 3rd plase!!

  • A Mans Gotta' Do is my third. =D The Finale is my fourth.

  • 1st: A Brand New Day

    2nd: On the Rise

    3rd: Fanale

    4th: Laundry Day (Freeze Ray)

    5th: A Mans Gotta'Do

    I believe that is correct unless I missed a really good song. That is my top five :D

  • how about slipping? or is that your sixth?

  • Eh, I consider Slipping as part of the Fanale.

    Pretty much I put 'Slipping' and 'I am fine' in the same thing and call it the 'Fanale'. So that would be number 3. :D

  • ok, GOOD! cause that is an EPIC song!

  • I know, seriously!!!

  • RIGHT ON!

  • What I think is amazing about this series is that something -drastic- happens to turn Dr. Horrible into what he wanted to be all along. Just like old time superheroes and how they all went through some sort of trial to make them into who they are. Priceless.

  • Stories that have a happy ending leave little to remember. This is why Joss is king. He creates material you won't forget. I've watched all acts 5 times in the last 7 days. And I can't get some of the songs out of my head.

  • hahah sorry never i guess

  • When does act IV come out?

  • In the end of Dr. Horrible, He's really depressed because he has nothing to do.

  • Yey! Joss has said there will be an ep4 :D

    Its Jossmas

  • i listen to this song a billion times a day

  • god, me too. its quite embarrassing actually

  • I think he has the idea that the only way he can change the world to be "right" is for him to rule it... but the thing with Penny could have saved him from himself.

    Cruel cruel Joss :),he does like to torture his chars but genius! I didnt see that coming. I felt his pain poor dr horrible

  • joss is a horribly mean evil evil old man, and i'm very fond of him and all he creates:)

    i got a vibe at the start of act III, i knew it wouldn't all work out ok because it's joss, and he seems to hate happy endings greatly. i think he may have been touched inappropriately by one when he was a child. it's the only answer. still, he's damn good at what he does! he creates wonderful works of art that are as beautiful as they are gut-wrenchingly depressing. *sigh* can't wait for the dvd.

  • this is one of my fav songs! I LOVE DR.HORRIBLE!!  as soon as i get money for my itunes im gonna buy all 3 acts=] the ending was kinda sad though.....but he did get into the evil league of evil..

  • he didnt do what happened oin porpose it was an acident that still got him ihn to the league

  • what do you think about the final part when he is alone, undoctored and says "A thing" I thought it was possible that he didn't get what he wanted - he lost Penny and he didn't get/ want anything else

  • yah I love all the songs ... this one probly the most because I like duos ^^

    but yah he wanted penny but he also wanted the club , but I belive that the club is more of a way for him to deel with his greef or else all he did would have been for nothing

  • SweetP, did you not notice at the end when he said he would feel no pain all of his science stuff wasnt there?

  • That was Billy, not Dr. Horrible. They're basically two different people at the end.

  • good point. that's how i felt at the end also.

    ~

  • huh... no i didnt notice that

  • such a tasty song.

  • I just cant stop listening to these! Bet I'm driving my neighbours mad... mwhahahaha!

  • I lovelovelove Dr. Horrible!

  • thanks for posting this, one of my favorite songs!

  • This is easily one of the best songs from the blog! I've been humming it for the past couple days!

  • i'm so joyful this is here - i can't buy it in the uk D,:

  • guh.

  • Thanks so much for this! It's my favorite song from this amazing little miniseries.

  • Thank you so much for posting the amazing music from this!

  • I heard about this blog show from VH1's Best Week Ever and im glad I did cause I thought this was effin' amazing prob. one of the best things that I have ever seen. I wasnt sure about it when I first started watching it, than it got super good.

  • My favorite song from the whole series, it's amazing <3
