Now icant sing as high as these frankie valli guys. But this guys just isnt good. Joseph leo bwarie ( frankie valli national tour 2011) is 10 timea better. This valli in this video is actualy the alternate valli for the tour this year
@ChaseFranklinProject he orginated the role its tough john lyoid young won the tony his amazing. The creating of the role is hard and he brought humanity and humerity
He is not as good as the one we had in Appleton, WI. He sounded so much like him!! If you closed your eyes u would swear Frankie is in the room, thought he was good looking on his own.
I like Ryan's (the original Frankie in London) falsetto better than John Lloyd's. However, for everything else (i.e. non-falsetto singing, pronunciation, etc), I like John Lloyd the best.
@Pennywisea ...nothing can beat the original no matter genre,artist,bands,etc. thats just offensive to the original artist that created the songs in the first place.
@AGA151994 I disagree. Being a Beatles fan for my entire life, I have found that the Across the Universe remakes are amazing and sometimes better than the original. That's not to say that I hate the Beatles or that you are completely wrong, but there are exceptions to the rule.
@ShowerRockstar1 While I agree that the originals aren't always better, I have to say that I found Across the Universe to be a travesty to both the music and as a movie in general.
The orginal cast was the best I don't know what some of the UK fans of Jersey Boys are saying!! The British West end cast sound okay but they are sooooo stiff!!! Yeah the British cast don't have to force it as much but I've noticed that with some British singers they don't over-sing!! That's good being subtle is better. I want to see the Aussie cast though.
Some of the negative comments on one of the best musicals ever created are by people who have never seen the live show. It's quite apparent because they don't know what the fuck they are talking about.
Somebody needs to make a musical about those backup dancers in all the early videos-and not one where they are portrayed as a bunch of whores or strippers. Real chicks with hip.
@34BestBuds43 OMG your absolutely right. The guy playing Franky Valley. seems like hes forcing that out. I have to admit, the London Jersey Boys really do seem alot better. But saying that you cant really put much comparison on them. because these guys are still fantasic. The Jersey Boys production is a great one
@TheBroadwaybabe01 then why does he sound like he's pushing it? If you listen to Ryan Molloy from the London cast, he doesn't like that at all. Ryan's voice is clearly stronger
Okay, found it, THIS was the cast from when I saw Jersey Boys on Broadway. I loved it that people in the audience (well some of them, anyhow!!), really got into the music and hummed, clapped and sort of danced along, as they did when I saw Mamma Mia musical while in NY as well.....
who ever was the cast on Broadway 2 years ago was awesome. the guy who played Frankie Valli looked and sounded more like him then this guy when he sung
im sorry but apart from john lloyd young iwho plays franki in this vid the whole cast are like a local school play compared to londons west end version, vocally and in choreography. watch a west version to the right its so much better. even then this franki only compares to londons franki equally at best. in my opinion west end version is so much better.
I"ve got to say, john lloyd young isn't nearly as good as john michael dias, who was an understudy who i saw in indianapolis recently. dias' voice was incredibly pure and sweet, and he didn't miss one note in the entire show. its a shame that young is getting so much hype and credit while there are younger less well known actors who play the part far better.
@Well4QThen You have to keep in mind, back then John Lloyd Young did all 8 shows and this appearance was on their night off, so I can understand the strain his voice must've been in. I've heard/seen Ryan very nasal-y in a lot of the videos.
I usually avoid "jukebox musicals" like the plague, but I gotta say that this show was OUTSTANDING. I see a lot of Broadway and this show really pulled it home.....the guys in the show were outstanding, there was a book, and the songs did more than just entertain...they advanced the plot.
what's interesting about the show is that the songs are uptempo'd a bit...not complaining, but they run a bit faster than the original 4 Seasons recordings. Wonderful show...performance....SEE IT...worth it
The guys in melbourne were the slickest and best - the youtube versions of london and broadway are nowhere near as convincing - check out the melbourne guys - we went last weekend and had to see our doctors afterwards we were so giddy.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Are these guys for real? no offence but they have nothing on the London guys. Ryan Molloy is the best Frankie I have seen. sorry but these guys cant dance very well or sing ........ just my opinion
Though I hope you know, the broadway Jersey Boys and the London Jersy Boys are coreographed the same. Frankly I like Ryan Molloy thats it. An Glenn Carter. But I think the Broadway beats out everyone. Especially Scott Monello. Srry.......just my opinion.
I highly agree with adyysia Bobby Fox is an amazing singer and performer and the Australian show is fantastic! After listening to all the Frankie Valli's i think he is the best by far :)
Melbourne ( Australia) show is fantastic. Bobby Fox is absolutely brilliant as Frankie Valli. Other voices and performances are also wonderful. Jersey Boys is a must see again and again and again and again show. Doesn't really matter where you see it!

careful Jack. don't forget that the original Four Seasons were from the United States. So, they were, I suppose as you would say "daft yanks" Go figure that someone would make a great musical based on people from the US.
With that said, from what I've seen and heard, the London cast bested the others. But hey, let's not sling mud. There's talent in every nation, if you're willing to look for it.
And arent alot of the musicals in London based on the US? There is a thought. Mamma Mia Jersey Boys Hairspray The sound of Music Wicked. Avenue Q Chicago Grease Legally Blonde is definately ours! There is 9 musicals made in the US or US based that are going to the west end. so uh yea. Watch what ya say buddy.
What rock you been living under fella?? The London cast trump the others. Compare the choreography for a start! The Broadway Boys move like drunken elephants and their lead looks "nothing" like Frankie.
I was on Broadway for opening night. If you had been there you would know exactly what I am talking about. I have seen 4 different casts and the original Broadway is hands down, by far the best! Have seen clips of London cast and there is no comarison. Ask Frankie, he'll tell ya' straight on which cast was his favourite and the best!
Dude listen, the London guys move like prissy effeminate gaydars. Ryan Molloy doesnt look like Frankie, J. Robert Spencer doesnt look like Nick Massi. I like the London guys, but compared to these guys, they cant even stand up. He sounds like Frankie Valli thats what matters. On broadway you dont need to necessarily look the part and in this case JLY doesnt. We like him for his voice and how great of an actor he is. So I suggest you stuff it and look at the faults of the london cast!
wow um nothin ever will beat the original broadway cast the aussie and london show pale in comparison thts y shows try to get on broadway they dont try to go to london or australia cus broadway will always be the best just thought i shud clarify for you ppl who THINK your countries performers were better
I've only seen JB london cast perform live (three times so far) so you could say I'm emotionally attached to our guys. But this was good too. Everyone should see the show once. Can I just point out that Bob Gaudio wasn't a gangster. He provided stability to the group when he joined them.
The Chicago cast was the best BY FAR!! I've seen the one in New York and hte one in Chicago...Chicago's "Frankie Valli" is a way better singer by far.
Does anyone know the name of the singer who plays Franki Valli? Of all the different Franki Valli wannabes, this guy is the one who impresses me the most.
Same here. His name is John Lloyd Young. He's since left the show, however, much to my chagrin because I'd really loved to have seen the show with him in it.
These guys are the original cast hand picked by Bob Gaudio. And the guy who plays Frankie in this video was approved by Frankie Valli himself. His name is John Lloyd Young, and Frankie Valli has said that he couldn't imagine anyone else playing him other than John, and of all the Frankie's he's seen, John is still his favorite. No one is better, I'm sorry.
I agree completely. The original cast is the best EVER! JLY is the best Frankie. He will always be. Granted this isn't their best performance. Ya'll should check out some other ones and you will see why they are tops. But still Kudos to the other Frankies :)
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
OMG! Seriously, this is so bad! I feel privileged to have the best Jersey Boys here in london! This is way too screechy and they aren't even handsome! Ryan Molloy, Stephen Ashfield, Glenn Carter & Phil Bulcock are so much better. You don't know what ur missing in the states! Check out some of the london performances esp on the royal variety show to see how it's done!
You're crazy!! Have have you seen the Frankie Valli playing now? I think this is good! So there not EXACTLY like the 4 seasons! I bet your guys have weaknesses too! Have you ever thought about that?!!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i never heard the London performance but have to agree that he does not sound like Frankie vally back than. but i must also say i was at a 4 seasons concert about 10 years ago and Frankie valli did not sound like himself after all the years

These guys are the original cast hand picked by Bob Gaudio. And the guy who plays Frankie in this video was approved by Frankie Valli himself. His name is John Lloyd Young, and Frankie Valli has said that he couldn't imagine anyone else playing him other than John, and of all the Frankie's he's seen, John is still his favorite. No one is better, I'm sorry.

I agree completely. The original cast is the best EVER! JLY is the best Frankie. He will always be. Granted this isn't their best performance. Ya'll should check out some other ones and you will see why they are tops. But still Kudos to the other Frankies :)

OMG! Seriously, this is so bad! I feel privileged to have the best Jersey Boys here in london! This is way too screechy and they aren't even handsome! Ryan Molloy, Stephen Ashfield, Glenn Carter & Phil Bulcock are so much better. You don't know what ur missing in the states! Check out some of the london performances esp on the royal variety show to see how it's done!

You're crazy!! Have have you seen the Frankie Valli playing now? I think this is good! So there not EXACTLY like the 4 seasons! I bet your guys have weaknesses too! Have you ever thought about that?!!

i never heard the London performance but have to agree that he does not sound like Frankie vally back than. but i must also say i was at a 4 seasons concert about 10 years ago and Frankie valli did not sound like himself after all the years
