  • Starlight express! Starlight express! Starlight express! Starlight express! Starlight express!

  • gaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

  • absolut schwarz!

    

  • i LOVE this musical my husband took me to see it as an Engagement present 11 years ago. THank you for posting this it bought back soo many memories

  • Most people got here because of Family Guy while I got to Family Guy because of this!

  • wie schwul ist das denn

  • Wow...this vid is as old as me O.o

    I love Starlight Express! :)

    But the german version is better in my opinion :)

  • family guy ..

  • 200k views thx to family guy lol

  • EINMAL DA IMMER DA ZUMINDEST IN GEDANKEN

  • @oldmanpoodle Why is he a theif?

  • The German is more better than the english...

  • @Josilo98 ....not if you only speak English! ;0)

  • You should be happy; most people wouldn't know about this "masterpiece" if it wasn't for Family Guy. Now there are at least hundreds of people of have heard about Starlight Express!

  • I saw this on Broadway in October of 1988, I think, or 89. It blew me away. Technically, I don't think there's ever been a show to compare. Oh! I also got to work with the cutie-patootie who played Greaseball in the German tour. He came to work (we were doing My Fair Lady) on his skates one afternoon, and did his number for everyone backstage. :-)

  • StarLight express BITCH!

  • Yep family guy !! Why does this suck so much ??

  • I'm sorry, but Peter Griffin did better. Just sayin'.

  • I just wish people would make sci fi stuff that has this sort of look again, nowadays.

  • STARLIGHT EXPRESS! STARLIGHT EXPRESS! STARLIGHT EXPRESS! Lol familyguy

  • FAMILY GUY FTW XD

  • Wow!, Belle the Sleeping car!!!. Amazing video!!!

  • WTF

  • sheesh, stop with all of the gay "thumbs up if such and such didnt bring you here" Its the most retarded way to get thumbs up

  • (Pt 2) Here's a good example. A group of people could be hanging out, and one person does or says a rude thing to another person. The person says "I didn't like that", then the other person would say "I'm sorry, I didn't know", that's how you would know if someone is just having harmless fun. Now if the person reacts like "I was just joking, you brat!" that's how you know they were being rude.

    P.S.

    I'm not knocking Family Guy.

  • @Snotrod191 i acctually never heard of it i saw it on family guy

  • @Snotrod191 non of the above ...ur mom sent me here.

  • @Snotrod191 i don't know wtf this shit is, but family guy made fun of it and they sent me here

  • @Snotrod191 Family guy brought most people here bro :)

  • Family guy... Family guy... Family guy!!

  • @rabbitwithpockets It's okay

  • ha! family guy rules.

  • di anyone else notice the guy fall at 0:23

  • @AmericanDroid That was on purpose

    

  • @AmericanDroid part of the show. it was the "bad guy" reaching for the thing the good guy had

  • Family Guy sucks, for the most part, but I'm glad they made a joke about this shit.

  • @BootyFister Family Guy makes spiteful spoofs. That's why the rating are going down.

  • @SongsJerome Family Guy is crap.

  • There are some cute character moments in this scene, such as Flat-Top's reaction during "Dinah Splat" and Belle laughing while Electra and Poppa are speaking. Also, you'll see the Rocky wearing green high-fiving the components at 3:40-3:41(and Wrench high-fiving Purse afterwards). Of course, Electra acting offended at the beginning of the song is pretty funny to watch, but he gets into it. ^_^

  • *sigh* When I was a kid I wanted to see this show so bad. It was playing for YEARS in Las Vegas, which is really close to LA. And a year before I was finally old enough to go on my own, they canceled the show. *headdesk*

  • Comment removed

  • @Snotrod191 Family Guy is not a crappy show, and should be a good thing that it made so many people go and find out about Starlight Express.

  • STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS

  • If a revival of Starlight Express ever happens, then we have Seth MacFaland to thank!!

  • Yep, Peter Griffin. Starlight Express! Starlight Express! Starlight Express! Starlight Express! Starlight Express! Starlight Express! Starlight Express!

  • Comment removed

  • If I had a DeLorean time machine, and only 1 use of it, I would use it to see this show in it's heyday.

  • @Snotrod191 You are very wise. I took my family to London in the 90s just to see this show. We flew free on military aircraft (not comfy but cheap) and it was amazing. I think my children's love of quality music is owed in part to this show. I hope that one day soon they will bring this back and you mwill get your wish (without the Delorean)

  • Wasnt Richard Stillgoe the Lyricist ? Because he did part of the lyrics for Phantom of the Opera before being replaced with Charles Hart

  • what a neat Dinah, totally fell in love with her, who played her?

  • @leilanibabydoll

    Dinah was actually played by Jane Krakowski ( Later famous from several US TV shows ( Among them Ally McBeal series ) and films. The caracter of Pearl is played by Reva Rice ( The girl in the beginning of this clip )

  • @Cta2006 thank you!! :)

  • STARLIGHT EXPRESS STARLIGHT EXPRESS

  • 1:51 there is is again.

  • 0:34 I like the light on his hair

  • @leasolanga God don't gang up on him.

  • Was the 2nd U.S. Tour still running when the family guy spoof was done? that can be the only way they'd know about the show. even if it wasn't, KUDOS to Seth McFarlane for the nod to the show

  • STARLIGHT EXPRESS. STARLIGHT EXPRESS.

  • YEAH, HAHAHA, FAMILY GUY!!!! HAHAHAHA....

  • 0:24 FAIL!

  • FAMILY GUY

  • soooo sweet! like it ... :) immer wieder träum :)

  • Have seem the Family Guy version too many times (thank you dvr) then finally looked up what this is. HOLY CRAP STICKS! This is epically bad. Like a gay southern baptist disco tent revival that got lost at a Tron convention with bad choreography... You get the point. I dig artsy stuff but this is shite.

  • @Beeftink14 Family Guy is shite. This is an Andrew Lloyd Webber show, so it's over the top. Cats, anyone? The costumes in Starlight Express are amazing, the choreography is mind-blowing and the songs are great.

  • @Starlight623 bla bla bla, most of the people are are only here cause of peter haha

  • @Starlight623 But, everybody loves Family Guy.

  • @SongsJerome Not everybody. Obviously.

  • @Starlight623 Well, it's gonna be okay man. I like Starlight and Family Guy. But sometimes when there's nothing to do I'll watch Family Guy to laugh. But I always listen to Starlight Express soundtrack.

  • @Starlight623 Hey man, don't have a cow!

  • i only watched this because of Family Guy HAHAHAHAHAHAH

  • I think this is the most amazing musicial ever put on stage. Tough band parts, impossable mechs, a cast that need to be great singers, dancers and can skate with those costumes, difficult sound and lighting. It was a credit to everyone involved. Nobody has seen anything this difficult since.

  • @leeal2

    I have been currently praying that Andrew Lloyd Webber will bring Starlight Express back for a new production. I think the show needs to be seen by more theatregoers of different generations. Same goes with Cats as well, I just don't think it's a good idea to limit the andrew lloyd webber shows down to just Phantom and his revival of The Wizard Of Oz.

  • Tellya what, I saw a huge cast of former Starlight performers on the stage of the Apollo Victoria Theatre last Sunday evening (10th Oct) - no costumes, and just the Wicked set, but dang they did the full finale in skates, on a raked unprepared stage!

    They got a huge roaring standing ovation. Much, much more applause than anything else in that gala performance!

    The Starlight is still alive in Londoners' hearts...

    Family guy? who he?

  • Love this play I hope a DVD can be made..

  • @sparky30368

    Just like how CATS was filmed? Definately! I would love to see Starlight Express get a live performance filmed for DVD or Blu-Ray. As long as they can do it with the live races kept intact. As well as reinstating the character of CB and his songs.

  • I'm S-O-R-R-R-Y!

  • I'm only here cause of Family Guy. But I must say after seeing this, I can't believe Starlight Express was actually on broadway. This is fucking terrible.
