The way he says "What's this?" is so irritating... it's the same every time ;/ and you really canb't hit the notes at 1:08 ... so awful.. I cringed at all of it. Can't breathe at 1:31... it goes on...
Amazing! Altough it's impossible to sound like Elfman, your singing had the same feeling than in the original song, and before live audience no less. It would have been wonderful to be watching that play.
this is awesome dood, the only thing i don't like is the lack of movement (like at the end hoped you would have "ran" into the tree with the christmas town sign and when the "dreamland" part came up i thought you would have made the same movements jack did as well) but aside from my nitpicks XD your voice was very good, it was all very well done as well great job dood^,..,^ (i just wish i could do something like this tho but i hate my voice XD)
I think its fantastic. My only comment is jacks movement is more spiderlike and eccentric as opposed to just walking around. Which may have just been choreography fault
he is very good and i don't know what u guys are saying HE IS NOT THE ORIGINAL SINGER OF Nightmare before Christmas and he can't look like the cartoon, It is not possible.
impressive. really. we're doing this at my drama group, and i'm the one who adapted the script, am teaching everyone the songs, choreographing it, codirecting it, and playing jack. yeah...it's a small group. anyway, we've been having trouble giving people stuff to do on stage during this song, and this has given me a few ideas.
listen to me go on. this is seriously well done. wish i could have been there to see the whole thing.
singings not bad ive always wanted to see a live nightmare before christmas, my biggest problem was the makeup/costume i understand sometimes youre working with limited resources and can't always get the exact look youre goin for but it doesnt seem like they tried. the acting was good tho!
this is really great, the courage for you to get up there and use your might and expressions on live audience is tense, and you made it. Im proud of you. I certainly cannot do stage performances. Ya, you may need to work on some improvement, but i really dont care because this performance you did was impressive, good job!
Tsk Tsk an actor using a microphone! Well it was good for your first time and this was posted three years ago i assume you've gotten much better. You should post a vid of you trying it again!
Some of these comments are really mean. He's not a horrible singer at all! I think he sings this well, especially considering it's a tough song. He acts it well too. It's obviously not going to look exactly like the cartoon (no human being is as spindly as Jack!), and if this was just an intro to Rocky Horror you can't expect a masterpiece of a set. They did a commendable job! I'd like to see all the haters try to do this themselves...
i aggre what's this is very diffacult 2 sing and act and if u comepare it with the real song it's very good ( because the nightmare before christmas is my favorite tim burton movie )
I've always thought this would be good for translation to Broadway. A longleggedy, spindly star who's also a song-and-dance man would do well, like Hugh Jackman before he got ripped, or someone in the mold of Tommy Tune. Ken Page, of course, has been on Broadway (The Wiz) and could come back...
Also pitching on on this, I've been thinking about that for the last while. It would make for a VERY impressive show if the costumes and sets were done right. Ah well... we can hope.
Possibly. I know that this is a petty thing to relate to, but the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland when decked out Nightmare Before Christmas style is quite impressive. The environment is dark but everything it bright reflective/neon colors. Quite unique really, I think it would look amazing live if it were done like that.
damn. nightmare before christmas is a musical that is impossible to be performed well live. The cartooniness of the characters is what gives it such a weird mood to it.
Why is it these are all crappy video's? Wasn't there one professional video man at this performance? I have been through like 100 video's just trying to get Ken Page singing as Oogy boogy in good quality.
Did you do the whole performance or just that scene. Personally thought the singing was great. Good job. My school is looking to do the performance of Nightmare before Christmas, but we can't find where to get the legal rights. Can you tell me how you did it?
Thanks! Ya it was only that scene. Every year we do a pre-show to the rocky horror picture show and pick a theme. Since it was only that quick song we didnt bother getting the rights or anything.
I think it would be extremely difficult for any normal person to look like Jack or a skeleton. Love the bowtie :) and the performance! Keep up the good work! Would have loved to see it live.
I stopped it. I'd LOVE to go to a pantomine for NBC, but it would be a HUGE disappointment if the singers didn't take their breaths at the right times :/
ya that's definatley what I struggled with most. I even asked for help on figuring out when to do it, but the heat of the spot light and running around makes you shortbreathed so easily.
GREAT JOB!!!great costume too.i have the same one.but why didnt u get the mask?its not that expensive.oh wait,is it because u wouldnt be able to sing with it on?
can anyone put on this play? do you need rights? i want to put one on but am scared to be put off by disney...
