Sweeney Todd - Not While I'm Around - Scott Bakula

[rr7firefly]

Almost 20 years ago, my gosh. Hillary was in tip top form back then, a real beauty. And Scott Bakula never looked and sounded better. He's the voice of Danny the song and dance cat in "Cats Don't Dance."

[louiseang]

I remember when this was on and my VCR messed up on recording it. Haven't seen it all of these years. Thank you, thank you, thank you for posting this!

This is 1) Completely out of context from the original performance (Well, OK you say, this has nothing to do with the original performance.)*

2) I am not exactly sure what the word schmaltz(y) means, except to say this is it.

3) Listen to the original!

* This is Bdwy/showtime - something could have been done to reflect the nature of this song

[Figurine889]

@Marvelouscortex have you ever seen the kennedy center honors? that's not exactly the point...

[Rackou87]

Wow. He's amazing. One of my favorite songs sung by one of my favorite actors and now one of my favorite singers. :)

He's on a new show now which I intend to watch sometime; It's called Men of a Certain Age, I believe.

[iliesko]

please post some more from this spectacle

[kizzi3]

started to record the ql series never realised scott could sing so well . and hes hot !!!! love him to bits

[rockerchicka17]

One of my favourite actor and one of my favourite song :) so happy

[funkimonki360]

QL ended in May '93. Love that show. 5 seasons was far too little.

If this was in December '93, that'd be cool because that's when I was born. :)

[Dovebyrd]

The best rendition of this song anywhere on any soundtrack~ ever! I wish it were full length.  I love Scott... & his singing.

[fab4fan1]

Actually, this is Dec 1993 so QL was already cancelled I believe.

[BaksGal]

This is pre-QL, so he wouldn't have been as well known then. Thanks for posting this.

[opera888able]

Ive just seen the movie, God what a hideous subject.But what intricate and beautiful

music.I like the Streisand rendition very much.

[Markismetchan2934]

He is so beautiful in so many ways! 

[jam90jaay]

Where can i see the rest of the tribute. If you have more please do so add add. thanks so much. in tears here.

[lobogirl]

i had no idea he could sing he's fantastic

[iloveejbgssnoopy]

Oh  Scott's singing melts my heart to sheer joy. His voice is so beautiful.

[hlfraser]

I love Scott Bakula!!! He's hot

[popertop]

1:10

lol clinton, clinton lol

[CaitlinHeaneyMusic]

Scott Bakula sings?? This just made my day.

[rr7firefly]

I had a great laugh when I noticed the way this was edited. When Scott sings the lyric "Demons are prowling everywhere" the camera cuts to Sondheim smiling. When Scott voices the words "Demons will charm you with a smile for a while" the camera cuts to the Clintons. Accidental? Maybe not.

Oh, BTW, I absolutely love Bakula's singing voice. I wish I could sing like that.

[jackiehallam62]

He even sang on the movie Cats Don't Dance.

[LordPata]

Oh yeah, I saw that movie, I even have a VHS of it, sadly I don't have a VCR anymore but I keep the video as a memento ^^

And I agree, Scott Bakula has a great singing voice ^^

[jackiehallam62]

I have the DVD I bought from Ebay.

[LordPata]

Nice, I also have the soundtrack CD, I found it at a local music store by mere coincidence several years ago, now it is hard to find it around here on local stores ^^

[CountryLovergrl8]

amazing voice

[JackEnnis]

I love, really LOVE, Scott Backula.

:sigh:

[EvilDeadFan1990]

great song from a great actor!

[Tyronor]

Go Danny the orange cat!

Yahoo! Scot rules.

[simplystreeptacular]

Captain Sexy Pants, edition 5.0, ladies and gents.

[JeffyJeffjeffm31191]

who knew he could sing? awesome voice!

[TELENOVELASLOVER]

In quantum leap it's possible to hear him singing in many episodes..This is a wonder!

[OTimeMasterXO]

How on Earth is he 55?! I just found that out, this is me... :O

[CountryLovergrl8]

1. DAMN man can sing.

2. Holy smokes he's hot.

3. Damn I wanna meet him.

[trbl4giles]

Could not have said it better myself

[simplystreeptacular]

That man is absolutely EDIBLE.

[TracyBeth87]

Beautiful man and beautiful voice! Many thanks for posting! :)

[ananananabop]

Wow, he's amazing! Beautiful voice with a lot of feeling, but he doesn't over do it like many singers nowadays...I think I might be in love, a little XD

[CrashingCrockery]

Adorable. GET THE "QL" CD - a lot of the songs (and they didn't let him sing ENOUGH!!) are there. I wish he'd release a CD of other, varied songs. He is dreamy to look at AND to hear. I want one in my house, please. I promise I will take care of him...food, water him, etc...

[SeanPhillipMabrey]

Do you have any more footage from this concert? I watched it when it was first on the air, and I would love to see more of it...

[Jons01]

He is even better in person! Scott sings all varieties of music from Broadway to Rock. It doesn't hurt that he is simply gorgeous even now at 54 years old.

BTW, QL is available on DVD and Scott sings in several episodes.

[abdashizxx]

WOAAA!!!

HES REALLY GOOD!

[lifeform111]

oh my god...... i never knew he could sing like that!!!! quantum leap was my favourite when i was a kid and even now! i wish i could get the show on dvd or something!.... god he sings loke an angel 8->

[Runningbarefeet]

[Runningbarefeet]

[3chofir3]

[amnesia1408]

So cute... =)

[SlyEnter]

BRAVOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

[KGotschall]

I would love to see the rest of it, I'm an Enterprise fan but an even bigger Sondheim fan!

He's doin a pretty good job. That song is a lot harder than it seems, it is very much in a funny part of the voice for that voice type...

[NurseD2000]

Wow awesome. Love Scott Bakula..Thanks for the video..

[annette64]

I have the QUANTUM LEAP album with his songs. I loved the show but my favorite episodes were when he sang.

[MattBorne2Dance]

THERE IS A QUANTUM LEAP ALBUM!!!!!! what songs are on it?

[annette64]

Somewhere in the Night

The Leap Home

Imagine

Fates Wide Wheel

and several others from the show

[dayna4403]

Omg! Thank you so much for uploading this. Do you have the rest of the tribute? If so, could you PLEASE upload it!

[RaphGirl]

I LOVE Scott's voice!! He's such a wonderful singer!! His version of "Imagine" is breathtaking and my fave song of his is "Fates Wide Wheel". It's the Quantum Leap theme song with lyrics (he sang it in an ep where he was an aging rocker).

[ultraboy206]

brilliant

[GPX200]

1:10 tis is Da`Clintons. Gawd, I miss those years.

[ultraboy206]

[christiankittyluver]

[AceripXF]

yeah really i love scotts voice

[senoramariposa]

I had no idea he could sing!

[sk8phan]

I love this song. It makes me cry. Sondheim seemed really happy with it. Bakula's version however is just ok.

[amity1976]

wow...I taped this off tv back when it came on and then lost it somewhere along the way...thanks for posting this!

[fab4fan1]

No problem!! It's such a great performance and it should be shared!!

[shargal77]

Wow, I was such a big fan of quantum leap. I had no idea he sang too. And what a great voice.

[fsjb78]

He sang during is QL days, look up "Somewhere in the night" or "the man from la mancha". He won a Tony award before doing QL.

[kate22uk]

Had the biggest crush on him when I was a kid...judging by when this was I must have been about 10! :-D

Forgot what a gorgeous voice he has! Thanks for uploading this.

I wish I still had it all. I've got this one, the opening number and "Send In The Clowns" but none of the other performances. For some reason I don't have Jason or Bernadette's performances. :-(

[Shangobunni]
