  • A real fan appreciates this version and it is a tough song to sing. To the complainers: want your money back? Oh that's right, it was free to watch! So stop your whining.

  • I don't know why everyone's complaining. I thought he did great for being a last minute replacement AND nervous.

  • you know what, i'm sick to call my self a buffy fan after reading all my fellow fans comments. no you know what. I AM A FAN. i'm a die hard fan. I love seeing others try to show their appreciation for the show in creative and interesting ways like this. i think i have a better attitude then those who just take pot shots at this...

  • @comicbookfan5611 Thanks so much for your support! The REAL BtVS fans get what i was trying to do! :)

  • God this is really bad.

  • The vamp didn't dust?!

  • depressive.

  • Why a cockney Spike? lol It doesn't sound right at all. 

  • dude i can sing it way better

  • he sucks

  • who would watch this??! "Spike" looks like blond Justin Bieber!!

  • Who's that random girl that jumps on his back?

  • Why is there a cross in his crypt? What the heck? She doesn't even look like buffy

  • wow this is awesome to see someone too the show on the road lol thats def a show to go see!

  • British Buffy...hahahhahahahahahah

  • LMFAOOOOOOOOOOO OMFG AS SOON AS HE STARTED SINGING I ROLLED OFF THE BED LAUGHING MY BUTT OFF LMAO WHENEVER I'M SAD..ILL JUST WATCH IT AND IT WILL BRIGHTEN MY MOOD INSTANTLY

  • 'Spike' needs more anger in his singing.....

  • No. No no no. That is NOT Spike. James Marsters is Spike. He will always be Spike.

  • they have realy f*cked up the actale one :( they suck

  • Holy balls, i think Alyson Hannigan could sing better then this guy..

  • And where is James????? Where is Sarah?!!!! 

  • And where is James????? Where is Sarah?!!!!

  • Spike sings better but good effort!

  • its not like the actual buffy programme much. However it is VERY HARD to be exactly like someone else and i think this was ok compared to other things ive seen!

  • This spike isn't impressive, but he's not the worst I've seen on youtube. It's a hard song to sing anyway. Cool production.

  • hahaha this is ridiculously embarrassing

  • That doesnt even look that bad! Too bad I wasnt there! xD

    Well done to the players!

  • One reason i hate theatre productions...they try too hard.

  • Nu-uh. I don't like it - any of it? It sucks they are BOTH trying to hard and it is utter rubbish, And at the beginning 'spike' goes 'like it isn't soo-o-o' major mess up.

  • God...the Buffy actress tries WAY too hard.....one reason most theatre productions annoy me.

  • i think that the actress who plays Buffy on this kinda looks like Faith. Any thoughts? :D

  • I would love to see the whole show if you would put it on youtube.

  • So uh. Try acting and vocal lessons. The end...

  • "Rude/offensive/ignorant/stupi­d comments will NOT be tolerated, and WILL be deleted."

    I think you missed some. Like, quite the majority of 'em.

  • that suck the real one is better

  • although amazing idea buffy on stage but the girl cant act and the dude cant sing XD but its good in a wierd way XD

  • Spike's not so bad, especially not for a replacement. What is Buffy's excuse?

  • this is painful to watch. aaay

  • the performance is really sucks jajajajajaja

  • das is ja der letzte scheiss

  • Was It The Whole Show, Or Just Certain Songs From It???

  • @WayAddictedtofanvids Hey! We put on the whole show - but it's too long for YouTube! :)

  • @willowspuppy1 Thats Too Bad! Woulda Loved To Watch The Whole Thing!!!!

    Used To Do Theater Alot So Love Plays!

    And This Is My Fave Tv Show, So Two In One!!!!!

    Anyhow Awsome Work!!!!

  • B.T.V.S IS AMAZING ENOUGH FOR PPL TO DO LIVE PERFORMANCES AFTER IT!!!!

    THATS WHEN IT BECOMES A CLASSIC IN MY OPNION!!!!!

    THIS IS SO COOL!!!

    "Once More With Feeling" WAS THE BEST EP OUTA THE WHOLE SERIES!!!!

    THESE ACTORS DO WELL IN THIS VID!!!!

    WELL DONE!!!

    (Also, Spuffy Fans Rock!!!):P :P :P

  • that was a good try... ;)

  • butchered it

  • LOL why does Buffy have a british accent?

  • @blkwrapstar13 b/c the actress is British.

  • @willowspuppy1 She could have ACTED american though, because she's an ACTRESS?

  • that is 3 and a half minutes of my life that i will never get back...

  • so this is cool but u know what would make it even cooler is if u all kept to the original script and the original choreography and just made sure that u payed whatever fees u need to. now on to another subject where can i find the rest of this play I've never seen a I'm just interested in how it all played out though but no seriously good work :)

  • @buffygirl29 Hi, thanks for your comment! The whole video is not available online due to YouTube's length restrictions.

    I'm unlikely to now upload anymore, as i did the show almost 6 years ago, and i'm a little busier these days! Thanks!

  • @willowspuppy1 your welcome and I look forward to more uploads if possible :)

  • @buffygirl29 You know what would be cool? If you hadn't missed that day in school where they taught proper grammer.

  • @MagDuke for one thing magduke i never ditched school and for another i'm a teen and so thus will talk and spell the way i like no need to hate

  • Living up to the saying that musical theatre can't act. And why is it that every American performer on youtube can only do posh english accents? Spike is English but he sure aint posh. And why kill a vampire during this song, was that the only interesting choreography you could think of, killing a random vampire. Speaking of the choreography, it may have been amataur but it didn't have to look it.

  • He totally does NOT get the hair right. :)

  • failure

  • He sux so bad

  • The acting is horrible haha. They're saying the lines, but not feeling them. Talk about going through the motions.

  • Does this Spike have a mullet?

  • im actually offended that this video exists. this is so horrible. omg. no stage presence, no talent, really bad rushed off acting....i wish this didnt exist.

  • wtf is that :D haha shiiiit :D

  • For a last minute replacement, he did very well. Not James Marsters, but I still like :)

  • Omg, spike totally sux, and the musiciens play really bad, SHAME !!

  • this is horrible D:

  • @radioblast88 Dr Horrible?

  • im actually going to shoot myself over this (Y)

  • kudos for doing this :)

  • OMG girl playing Buffy can't act at all. I'd like to see the guy playing Spike doing something else, I mean where he's not so nervous, he could actually be pretty good.

  • terrible acting

    is like they havent even seen the episode

  • he Is not even as hot as Spike, and not as cool and spike has a lower voice and sounds English when he sings, and he actually sings well this dude sucks a lot!

  • so stupid nothing like the real actors

  • SUCH A COOL IDEA !!! YOU MUST HAVE HAD A LOT OF FUN !!!!! :)

    vanessa

  • omggg EPIC FAILLL !!!

  • and also...i wanna see james marsters reaction when he sees this video

  • DON'T LIKE IT!!! I'm sorry: but it's so much better when the actual actors play and sing it!!! Sorry!!! If he's spike than I'm Catwoman!! If she's Buffy than I'd shoot myself!!!

  • i dunno why i can't stop laughing even if i didn't play the video yet lol

  • this is really bad

  • The is no James Masters, however he did a decent job, but it is hard to dupacte someone like James Master's Spike.

  • i would of laughed if you guys did the part were he smashes the bottle

  • they sing shit,

    they act shit,

    :| they actually should be removed off youtube for killing buffy!

    hope they are dead for what they have done.

  • @becky13730 Hun calm down, I know they killed one of the best T.V shows of all time, but you should not get angery about it. Besides be thankful it was not you on the stage ruining this song I actuly feel sorry for the guy even though he tried, he still sucked.

  • when the  actor of buffy fell on spike at the end it looked real

  • ok that was terrrible he cant sing for shit

  • This is so cool! I wonder if I could talk our drama department into doing it... where did you guys buy scripts, did you have to pay a royalty, etc?

  • @gadgetgirl12 We used the OWMF script book that you can buy, got a musical genius to transcribe the other little bits of music *not* in the book and kept it very quiet that we were doing it - for fear of Fox suing! LOL ;)

  • he was actually better in this video than in the other songs good job

  • Haters. I'm a BTvS fan and I thought he did a good job! At least he had some feeling. As good as James Marsters obviously not but still good. Especially if he was last minute.

  • Wheres the hole explodeing in dust act? when spike stakes the vamp????

  • i think  hes doing a good job :)

  • It wasn't that bad! At least he didn't forget the words or something. It was mostly just his pitch, which was partly just thrown off by the choreography. I'm impressed that you guys did this at all. I really wish my school would do this as a musical.

  • is he singing.. or just talking to the beat? lol

  • -5 stars you butchered it, But good effort.

  • Should this guy play Spike? Nobody can do that, only James Marsters. One and the only Spike.

  • @MissdeVal Yes !!! Nobody is better than James Masters <3

  • @MissdeVal ikr that guy is nothing like spike!!!

  • @MissdeVal i completely agree!!! (;

    

  • The guy who play Spike is funny very commical, If I met the guy I would sooo high-5 him

  • james marsters sings really good, why didn't they usse him?

  • dont listen to everyone i really like this it was entertaining

  • I am in pain now, I want those 3 minutes back

  • OMG!! When & Who done Buffy Musical live? Love it!! Thought i was the only one who though it would be good live!! XD

  • you suck so bad you shouldn'6t even try to sing bufyy spike willow tara xander anya gies dawn and everyone else does a much better job

  • Iguess every visitor has had high expectations. This singing is really bad. Maybe this guy is good at acting, but this performance is really embarrassing for the whole crew.

  • Spike RULES but this guy is RUINING his song, james marsters should sing it, and i should be buffy : ), also he isnt singing it right, i could sing it WAY better.

  • yeah he does suck a bit but hey he could be well worse. does anybody watch stuff like x factor and britain/america's got talent. they are well worse. great camera footage though, sometimes you get really bad ones were people look like they're dancing while filming. xxx

  • so schlimm finde ich es gar nicht ^^

  • Sucks, yes, but he could be alot worse, trust me. For last minute, he's quite good

  • OMG what the hell is that ? It´s terrible

    OMG even I can sing better than them

  • if you miss Buffy or Angel check out new fan films Angel a Fresh start.

  • terrible acting, if you can even call it that.

  • o.o thats all i can say

  • omfg its terrible.. >.<

  • cant even get the words right and everyone has a british accent not just giles and spike i could do better by myself

  • he's really not too bad, he's obviously not going to be as good as the original.

    too bad there's no lamp smash.

  • this guy needs both singing lessons, and to listen to the song, like 100 more times, there's no emotion in his voice.

  • @livingalongtheway He has a good voice, but the producers made him sing as sloppy as he did so that he was focusing on acting rather than singing great, they made him record it later on in a studio.

  • what a bad actors =S, wait... they not bad, WHATS NEXT OF THAT!

  • This is pretty cool. :)

  • I think he sounds fine, no one can be as good as the orginal.

  • The whole thing sucks. Shit actors, shit singers. Can't believe I wasted nearly 30 seconds into this shit.

  • I don't think he's that bad, he just doesnt seem like he's into the character that much, other than that he's okay.

  • well i hate to say this bout the guy but when he sings the song there is no projection um hun how long did his replacepractice hun

  • i wish my school did a buffy play!

  • james masters was way better

  • haha this sucks.

    Is that a mullet?

    wow, just just wow.

    embarrassing.

  • Wow, considering the guy who plays Spike was last minute, he did a decent job. These actors have more courage than most to actually do this. Good job :)

  • no its not

  • given the fact that he was last minute and v. nervous, he did a really great job, although the accent was thick. i've seen people who have studied their part for ages do worse, so he did a good job

  • It could have been better, but hey, they had the courage and skills to bring it this far. I enjoyed watching. :)

  • lulz willowspuppy1?? nice 2nd season angel reference!

  • Dude!

    Buffy is meant to be Sarah Michelle Gellar and Spike is meant to be James Marsters!

    No one can portray the buffy charactors better than who was chosen. This version is sacrilege!

  • He wasn't that bad. He just seemed to be a bit nervous and his accent was a little thick, but as he is actually English and as you said last minute and nervous I think he did an okay job. Then again, I'm seen musical where the main characters couldn't carry a tune in a bucket. Plus, he was cute.

  • Oh wow, I didn't even know anyone DID a stage version! I'm so happy there is one! :D Cool! Great job! ^^

  • Wow his performance was OK at the beggining (I love the way he said "dont know a thing!") but it got BAD at the end. I know he was nervous, and I enjoyed it. But that was HILARIOUS

  • Oh bless him, I think he does it a lot better than most people would! This production looks so much fun :-)

  • Cool! I wish I could ac int this musical too!!! :D !!!

    If I've seen this in live, I would have enjoyed a lot !!

    (Its true that Spike has to practice more his song, but it's very difficult to sing in live)

  • 4 FUK SAKE HOW MAN WILL YAS GIVE THE SPIKE DUDE A BRAKE HE WAS LAST MINUTE AND DID VERY WELL GO ON EVERY ONE TRY AND PUT A SHOW LIKE THIS TOGETHER(unless u wernt meen on the coments then you can egnorr this) BETTER GO ON TIT HEDS.

  • @jezziewkdo9 I couldn't agree more!

  • These videos make my soul hurt. ='[

  • this sucks they ruin at this song

  • Yea that Spike sux, but is very good to c that other people love that episode...

  • wow.....thats is some BAD shit.....my god, he is out of tune the whole time! this is a shambles for the original! sucky people ruining something as cool as spike!

  • i don't think it' that bad, i actually liked it.

  • @Ashlina exactly same here i think it was good some peeple think they cud do betta wen they cuddnt no wat a meen!!

  • WTF !

  • For an amateur production, this is very well done. The set is simple, yet well designed and I can see the passion in the actors for the song and the show. :D

  • cmon guys, he may not be as good as James Marsters but you should consider the fact that its not the easiest role to pull off. he was not only a last minute replacement and was super nerous but was also trying to pull off a british accent (which is not ery easy to do talking, let alone singing) so he should get some credit for trying atleast :)

  • @DeidaraFox nervous* very* sorry my "v" button is messed up.

  • s'not bad

  • Seen and heard worse. Much worse. He did well enough for an (I'm assuming) untrained singer. Which is something James Marsters is, lest you forget.

  • James Marsters is the one and only SPIKE there can ever be this dudes fucked up

  • I tend to read comments while the video is loading. and I was like, "oh he can't be THAT bad."

    but good god man, that is just awful!!

    stop tainting the character of spike!

    twitch...twitch...make it stop.

  • Sorry i forgot. She sucks too.

  • You suck

  • Let me take your ass and bury you in a hole so very deep!!!

  • WTF is this!!! bwahahahahahahahahaha...are you kidding?  *laughs hysterically*

  • that spike sux!!!!!!!

    really not worth it!!!!

  • Even though Spike sucks. Atleast you put had the guts to put it on.

  • he did really well for being switched at the last minute

  • i think this is great!!!

    @21biscuitstreet, i love BTVS, but let's be frank, for them it was pre recourded and they had PROTOOLS. You can't really use protools for a live show.

    @willowspuppy1, you have a lot to be proud of here. I really enjoyed it. Thank you so much for sharing =]

  • Also that's really rude to say that if one of the original actors had seen this they'd be horrified. All the actors from Buffy seem like genuinely nice people, I think they'd get a kick out of it, and be flattered, not horrified. If this group of people had the kind of money they did for the TV episode, then I'm almost certain it wouldn't be considered an "amateur" production, and would be a lot better (though my personal opinion, no one can be Spike other than James Marsters ;) )

  • @ReineDeVampire If I were to attemt something as great as OMWF I would do it With Feeling...this whole production is half assed so dont expect people to like it

  • @21BiscuitStreet Okay, sure...were you there? Did you watch them getting ready for the production? Did you look over how much money they could spend on it? Did you watch every audition for parts in it? Maybe this is the best they could do with what they had. Until you can show something better for this, you shouldn't put them down for it.

  • There are obviously a lot of things that could have been improved on with these performances, but for being the first group of people to do a stage show version, and not having a whole lot to work with, AND having to deal with at least one last minute replacement, this is good :) Props to you.

  • It was actually pretty good. I just think that it felt a little rushed. Seemed like they were in a hurry to get to the sog and get it over abd done with.

  • Yes Spike does suck so WHY on earth would you put this shit online?! I was truly embarrased for them. Thank God it wasn't America fuckin up :)

  • @21BiscuitStreet Why would i want to showcase my work online? Because i'm proud of it.

    And, as the first person to do OMWF live, i thought fellow Buffy fans might like to see it. Whether or not they like it matters not to me.

    Having looked @ YOUR videos, i'm wondering WHY on earth you would put crappy camera footage online. Hypocrite.

  • @willowspuppy1 Your proud of It?!! I'm sure if Buffy or Willow seen it they would be horrified. Yes I am a true fan of Btvs..btw this is not my own account. I use it to watch worthwhile videos, sadly I stumbled upon yours.

  • @willowspuppy1 Hear hear!

  • @willowspuppy1 I think for what its worth, he it not terrible just not up to par, but i applaud him for trying, i wouldn't have the guts to do it up on stage like that, so i would give a 7/10 for effort.

  • @21BiscuitStreet yh no offence but your just bein meen they are reely good vidios a bet u cuddnt put sumfin like that 2geva so SHUT UP!!

  • @21BiscuitStreet What the heck is that supposed to mean? How dare you suggest that anything should be of lesser quality just because it's not American? UK has a lot more culture and finesse in their entetainment than USA does, and I think these people were brave to even try to do something this grand. I don't see any Americans on here giving it a go. I feel truly embarrased for your country that has to have people like you in it.

  • @AngelgirlTri9 CAN EVERY1 PLZ JUS IGNORE THIS ANGEL GIRL!!! SHE HAS A TENDENCY TA TALK SHIT THEN ACT ALL SURPRISED LIKE SHE"S THE VICTIM, DNT EVEN WASTE UR TIME ARGUIN WITH HER! I AM SO SRRY THAT I DID I SPENT MINUTES ARGIUN WITH THIS GIRL AND FALLIN INTO HER TRAP... I FEEL SO STUPID FOR THAT

  • @HenryClearwater Oh, you go and slag me off on other videos and you think *you're* the victim?! What is wrong with you?

  • @AngelgirlTri9 i kno im the victim ya dumb bitch so shut the fuck up its OVER or do u not understand english, how n the fuk ur using british slanf and ur from norway shut the fuk up ur pathetic, this is actually startin ta fun again
