[bilhuk23]

I saw this play 20 times

[broadwaymac486]

LOVE those tight pants on him ... oh, and his voice is amazing as usual, too. :)

[Daeulla]

@teresaraaen Johnny Contardo from Sha Na Na sang this song, not Travolta :)



[MissIzzzyB]

@teresaraaen This song was not in the movie.

[RhodesWC]

..saw it preformed at the Tuachan theater live.. and it beat out every other song. my new 'fav' for this musical. utterly fantastic performance.

[rayva1]

Wow that was fantastic!

[xSuchTheBestx]

Words cannot describe how much I love this song and his amazing voice...

[TheVampireBrianna]

i love how they yell out the chord progression. (x

[panamasrose]

What an amazing EVERYTHING!!! Also my favorite song from Grease and it has never been done better!!!!

[mkmkm52]

FABULOUS!!!!!



[lovefor60s]

THIS IS AMAZING! best version i have ever seen. and its live which shows this man has real talent not the talent of some of todays pop stars as they alter their voices on machines until it doesnt even sound like them. But this is raw, beautiful talent! amazing job!

[liberatordude1988]

the 6 dislikes are members of the scorpions

[rogerthornehill]

I Gotta agree, just a tremendous performance! It doesn't get any better that that.

[melissakharding]

[Anissa116]

HOLY GOD, what a voice. This is soooo good, I tend to watch it alot :) This is absolutely the best version. You go Sam Harris!

[hi10207]

[Pieman3]

[BaileyPooMonster]

CCCCCCAAAAminorFFFFFFGGGGseven­th :D

[munchcrisps]

Just got cast as doody, cant wait.

[Evilnic108]

[nskater1207]

[StageFantasy]

I love you, Sam Harris! This is by far THE BEST version of Magic Changes ever!!!

[tonicostadub]

I never liked this song very much, but OMG

This version is simply the BEST GREASE SONG EVER!

[1959buddyh]

AWESOME!!

[debbieswinyer]

Always love it when Sam sings!!!

[FrostiFilmz]

Man, I just got Cast as Doody in our production of grease, and oh buddy this is going to be great. I just hope i can do anything close to this magnitude of performance tho. Sam blows my mind every time he sings, most defiantly this is going to be so great. I'm so stoked.

[keithmarrmusic]

Good to you and congrats on getting Doody, I did Grease last year and was Casted as Danny, but if there was anyone else I would have loved to have been it would have been Doody, Those Magic Changes is my favourite song in the whole show!

[EricMontreal22]

I didn't think it was in the movie....

[tuppy20]

Yes, it was in the movie - Johnny Contardo, who was then in Sha Na Na, sang lead on this song. He's the original.

[benlooe]

@SamHarrisCOM

I live in England and have never heard of you before i happened upon your video. This is the best performance i have ever seen. I think your movement and stage presence is excellent and your voice out of this world. I perform with a Roy Orbison tribute show and thought i had heard the best voice ever in the man who performs Roy's songs but you really are amazing.When the hairs have settled down on the back of my neck i'll watch it again ...BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!

[reality81]

i think i was about 13 when this production was playing in new york and i'd play this recording over and over DYING for this vocal range. such a solid cast. i loved hearing this, kenickie TEAR UP greased lightning, and billy porter unlike any other teen angel. HA! the beating of my broken heart...

[sassy287]

absolutely the best version.  ever.

[chaksheba]

@sassy287 I totally agree...I saw him live and was blown away! Best version ever,,EPIC WIN!

[EmLaff]

hands down the best version of this song. ever.

[newdorpskate]

i was supposed to sing this version in my play for grease becouse i played i wish i had his voice i had to do the original boring version

[Dtcross25]

That key change is legit.

I wish we would've done that in our play :/

[jamegu]

I'm portuguese and I'm so crazy by this music. It's so beautifull, and Sam has a FANTASTIC voice. *.*

[simwis]

sprauncy !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[bobbya16]

Great job Sam!....you crushed this one!

[laughitup18]

in my choures someone did this song as a solo (it sounded like a man btw it was a girl) lol.

but we did the backup too it.

it was really fun.(;

[hatrick2531]

incredible!!!!!!!!!!!! i love this song

[rayva1]

Good job!

[doowrag]

i love this song and he has an amazing voice for it!!!!

[donterriobroadway]

[12KatieAnne21]

woww,

He pulls this song off so well!!

:D

[hatrick2531]

this is soooo good: favorite part - 1:18-1:21 hahahahhahahaha good song i can play it on guitar and sing it too =)

[iwonttell5]

[MikeyLush]

[phantommuchentuchen]

[jellytots1972]

[54spiritedwill54]

This is awesome.

[chaksheba]

Perfection!!!

[Starboi87]

My favourite song of all time...!!!

[jeroenalders]

amazing

[MyMusic6407]

Say "Grease" three days ago in London. That was the best thing I´ve ever seen. And Benjamin Ibbott sings "Those Magic Changes" perfectly. He´s so good. Would love to see this one more time.

[maxymillion23]

this is best version of this song i've ever heard!!!! and such a fun video to watch!

[jedilounge]

god I'm jealous

way to go... it was beautiful

[tigress1167]

this was very entertaining, enjoyed watching and listening to the video

[CTBranson]

I'll never forget when my friend Keith gave me this CD. It was the first time I'd ever heard Sam Harris. I absolutely love that song from the CD and I only imagined what he looked liked performing this. Now I know. WOW! Just amazing!!! Forever a fan! -Jason Yeager

[sdmahr]

Sammy, what can I say? You blew me away. What a beatiful job!

[FirstGum]

Damn... I wish I could sing like that T_T. Sams a musical genius!!

[TheOutsidersloover]

he's really good and so is the current Doody playing at the Brooks Atkinson theater, Ryan Patrick Bender he's AMAZING!

[ptanis22]

they're singing the guitar chords. look up a different rendition where it puts the song in context - doody has learned how to play the guitar over the summer, etc.

[susuco]

Thank´s.

[susuco]

Could somebody tell me what they sing in the 1:46 minute... in the chorus, I don´t understand it.?

Thanks and great song

[SparkyGrL7]

do you mean when they're saying the CCCCCC, AAAAminor, FFFFFF, GGGG7? i couldn't hear nething else at that part =/

[scatboy]

they sing C C C C C C, A A A A minor, F F F F F F, G G G G seven

those are the chords used in the song

[obsessong]

Sam is a great singer!

[guidofski]

I'm obsessed with this video; it's always been my favorite song from "Grease", but this performance is just beyond perfect.

[Idolmakercat]

Love it, the singing, oh everything.

[0ptfour]

this is magical - it's wonderful to see how people fall in love with this performance.

[downtowntrash]

he's the bomb :)

[diggoryjoshua]

well i played Roger like a thousand years ago on Grease (duh!) and that same year i had the chance to go see it on Broadway (1994) and I was really looking forward to Those Magic Changes... i was sooo pleased with what i heard and saw i can't even put it in words!

i've seen like a bzillion Grease productions and casts (Broadway and West End and more) and there's been no one like Sam Harris! HONEST. and i did have a crush on him for like ages! hahahah no afraid to admit it

you rock Sam!!!!! ;)

[rcracer3217]

Playing Doody right now at a regional theatre here in Colorado and looked up this video and might have developed a crush on Sam Harris. :) lol

[parker101194]

props

[eleha]

superbe voix,j'adore,bravo

[lateintheday2007]

This is awesome. He has a fantastic voice!

[jsbach15]

I wished that they left this whole number in the film version. Too bad Sam wasn't known back in 1978; he would have been a great addition! 5+ stars! THANKS this is really big treat :-D

[gaslightgirl]

i could fall asleep to it he's like a lulaby man so soothing and such a smooth vioce

[diggoryjoshua]

what? are you nuts?!?!!?

he's like THE Doody!

go to sleep please... andnever wake up! really!

[bigasista]

From GazzenDeBoa.

[triciaintexas]

stumbled onto this while surfing the tube. sam you are great, saw some of your vlog videos also, you seem like a great person and you are a great singer!

[Jillvoo]

I sung this song in Pfaa's grease. I like this video a lot!

[cheech6971]

Isn't this the guy who won that talent show with Ed McMahon, STAR SEARCH in the 80s?

[evilhippiechick]

yep like 17 times

[VLPRESL]

actually it was 13 times before he "lost" a round and they HAD to make him lose a round because he needed someone to go up against in the semifinals and finals:-) -vicki

[evilhippiechick]

oh ok

[MatthewWarriorMan]

lol nah I don't. I couldn't get those high notes even in falsetto.

[mauariano]

abcchede: tienes la cancion que dices...por que no la subes..aqui en Mexico esta cancion se llamo: Amor primero

[abcchede]

This guy has an amazing voice, Im from argentina listen to this guy Geronimo Rauch Toda Tu magia

Its the spanish version of the song and his voice is also great

[mauariano]

I liked this song, but with your voice.... I love it!!! I like a lot your voice. Is there a cd with this version? Well Congratulations, I played in a grease video of the English school...so I love this song. Greetings from Mexico city!!!

[nyprincess10001]

I can actually listen to this....sounds great,BUT The NEW Danny and Sandy............BLAH, SUCK!..my ears bleed when Max and Laura sing (and Hello..I am from the 70's, Sandy is a BLONDE!

[greasefan1]

Yeah, you sound like you're from the 70's. I am going to see Max and Laura's final show tomorrow, and just can't wait! They are AMAZING with INCREDIBLE voices---you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. And hello, guess what? Sandy doesn't have to be a blonde---the first Sandy on Broadway was a brunette, I don't think hair color should have anything to do with it. Enjoy your evening, I know I will....and can't wait for tomorrow night!!!!!!

[TheOutsidersloover]

OMG!!!! REALLY ur SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO lucky.............hey can u record the curtain call @ da end and post it on utube?? PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! or like if they make a specch!!!!! PLEASE!!!

[nyprincess10001]

And that is your opinion, not mine. Enjoy your viewing.

[shorterac989]

so hotttt

[Maxkustrap]

The Best "Those magic changes" Ever!!!

[Beachmama57]

I'm almost positive my brother Steve was on the keyboards for this one.

[LowCheese]

I LOVE sam!!!!!

[RANGERSRULE13]

great voice

[Roolerr]

I love the song: Those Magic Changes from Grease...

But then Sam sings it I look the whole song in a new beautilful view :)

This is the greatest version.

[vivalavibohem14]

Holy Shit can he sing!!!! he has like one of the highest belts i have ever heard!!!! i didnt really like the ending that much. it was a little weird.

[JerkyPuck]

love love love him. His voice is one that inspires me as a singer. I remember listening to this song over and over and over when I was in high school. Just amazing. I only wish one day he could hear one of my renditions and say the same. Beautiful.

[sailabonkie12]

wow, someones got some pipes...

[1g2h3jk4l]

Majestic

[evilhippiechick]

i have this on my MP3!!!

[evilhippiechick]

its goneD:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:

[evilhippiechick]

correction its back!

[VLPRESL]

again...perfection! sam, you have NEVER hit a bum note in your whole singing career, have you? i certainly have never heard one from you:-)xoxo-vicki

[evilhippiechick]

i know right??

[nadiag68]

I saw the play when he was doing Doody...  Now I cant wait to see it next Friday... but I can tell the one who's playing Doody will have big shoes to fill because there is only Sam Harris to sing those magic changes like that.

[sherryfracheymusic]

good job! I am on my way to a costume fitting for Camelot. But my favs are "Little SHop" and "Grease" (I once performed "Freddy My Love" ; > ) I also love "Pump Boys" You would be a great "Jim"

Best regards,

Sherry+

[gj2855]

Always a great voice!

[evilhippiechick]

you were great in this musical i wish i could go see it!

[nadiag68]

Very good I am pretty sure you were the Doody that I met in Montreal in early 90... with the Grease production... I tought you were nice because you took time to say hello and sign an autograph for me.

Nadia fan from Montreal

[roamer61]

I agree, its a great performance, but a tad bit uptempo.

[tangomommy]

Beautiful.

[keyblade60]

This is da best song ever i was doody at denon avenue in herricks a year ago

[EAsk8dude]

he sings it so perfect

good for him

love the song! well done

[dulcetdreamx3]

this is amazing. it's such a hard song, and he sings it perfectly!

[scribe114]

Sam is a machine.

[alexdanel]

Wow! - I was so moved. Really. Awesome. Thank you very, very much.

[thepinballwizad]

nicely sung, by seems reeeeally up tempo.

[4DRI4N4]

wow im blown away =) i love it omg !!!!!!!

[AndrewzBoi]

Hi! I'm Andrew. Out of all roles in Grease, is the role of Doody a really cool, memorable role to have, in the audience's point of view?

That's cos I'm playing the role of Doody in an upcoming major Grease musical in Hong Kong.

[brenna3737]

i looove this song, and he's the best i've evr heard sing it to date... he honestly doesn't even have a falsetto, he sings in it like the whole time!! that's the sign of a really really good tenor, even like josh groban has to go into falsetto sometimes but this guy is amaaaaazing!!!

[lifeinacndyswrl]

Amazing. I LOVE Grease! :)

[gostars3000]

this is awesome! he kinda sounds like elvis. oh well it's still good

[mastergamerML]

This sing is practically impossible. I'm plaing doody for the school(yes i know this has been said 100 times) and you have to have a huge range to sing ths song

[cannison101]

I'm playing Doody right now also.. It really is VERY hard. They have made a "lowered" version for me. :)

[detectivekane]

Im also playing Doody soon at QUEEN ELIZABETH HIGH SCHOOL and the song is so hard to sing but the guy above sings it so well!

[cannison1993]

Yeah Sam, does do quite a good job. I got though all 9 of my performances, and never cracked or messed up. Thank Goodness.

The "lowered" version really worked well, and sounds almost better than the Samuel French version. Well I was pleased, good luck with your performances!!

[siouxtrong]

I'm playing Doody at my school next month. =]

[cordee123]

amazing voice...my god :)

[Pitahero]

Absolutely amazing!

Why haven´t i heard about his guy before?

[jukeboxhero320]

I had to sing this version recently.. i consider myself a good singer but my cant even compare to his.

[Rocknrollfashionista]

no one can play Doody like Sam!

[payette]

So guess what, I was doing this GREASE REUNION show (I played Roger/Teen Angel... very fun) BUT anyways, you'll never guess what I heard backstage in our change room, we were ALL LISTENING TO SAM!!! Sing this song, and everyone was like, "HOLY FUCK WAT this guy is amazing, I could never do that" and it took all my power not to scream out that you subscribe to my videos!! LOL

I'm a dork but whatever. This songs/rendition is amazing

[TasteyCookies]

why is sam herris blue?

[skinnyj127]

Probably just the lighting.

[TasteyCookies]

they are using blue light?

[SamHarrisCOM]

Sam is related to Violet Beauregarde.

_Webmaster

SamTUBE.com_

[TasteyCookies]

uh huh...

[TasteyCookies]

also i have this song on my ipod =)

you have a nice voice

[MasterChiefWho]

my friend played this part in grease at my school and he sang a large part of the song in falcetto, its amazing how this guy did it rarely going into falcetto, if ever

[okeeffemj]

This is the best version of this song on the net. Our school is doing Grease in '08. I hope our Doody can be as good as half as good as this.

[Dtcross25]

I got to sing this for my school's rendition of Grease, and I learned to love the crap out of this song =]]

Sounds greatt :D

[DadLabs]

DadLabs love Sam Harris!

[lorjokr]

Really, really nice. Very talented guy. I can't help being partial to Johnny Contardo's version from the movie, though. :)

[robinymarisol]

WOW....what I would not have given to see him in Grease on Broadway....his voice is perfect for that music (heck...it's perfect for any music but definitely 50's).

[GraBear]

This is Leo's favorite song.

[payette]

This is EFFING crazy! I love it. A lot of the revival was super cool.

[AmyRoseXOXOXO]

This made me smile : )Thanks! XOXO

[WHATTHEBUCKSHOW]

omg i love it!

i listen to this on the CD All the time!

xo buck
