  • This isnt an opera, that much vabrato is NOT needed.

    The notes are too short and it just ends up sounding like you're trying too hard.

    Great voices, just not very well suited to the song.

    It's all about hitting the notes sharply, you should almost get a bit of a shock each time they say 'he had it comin'. I wouldn't usually say this but if you're this off with acting and dancing, it may not hurt to mimick the movie to an extent..

  • @ThatAusGirl Our school is famous for bringing an operatic touch to everything. That being said, I wish they did a little more with it.

  • The person saying "squish" is like "-.- squish...."

  • this is horrible

  • ur supposed to be pissed and energetic to the point that if you grilled the audience u would have burned holes through their foreheads! u didnt even look a little upset!! u looked like u just let it go.

  • ur supposed to be pissed and energetic to the point that if you grilled the audience u would have burned holes through their foreheads! u didnt even look a little upset!! u looked like u just let it go.

  • no...energy...watsover!

  • I absolutely love this video! I think it's really good!

  • Singing is on spot, but the dancing could be more exciting.

    And for all of those people who say they aren't saying it right?

    Well, there are different versions of the musical, and people are supposed to say it differently.

  • Yeah, so sad...need more energy. But no SO bad, could be better.

  • i'm sooo wrong ....just saw the whole thing ... a 10 year old could have done better

  • could have been much better

  • Sometimes you have to sacrifice sounding "pretty" to be able to truly act the part of the character. I'm not implying that you have to yell, or sound tone deaf either, but put more emotion into your singing.

  • I'm sorry, but really, that was SO bad.

  • um wow ... you guys actually sound happy that u guys killed your husbands... you probably should have watched the movie before you did this...

  • I agree dd not sound like there was any energy singing that piece.

  • that had NO energy

  • ummmm not very good..no emotion in the singing, the dancing [no offense] sucked, and the acting was pretty bland...

  • What the hell is this? Seriously.

    1) The chorus part of the song had NO emotion, they are supposed to sound pissed off and angry, not sound like a little group pf chorus girls.

    2) Why would this be called "senior oscar night"???? Oscars are movies, stage and theater is the Tonys.

  • um because Chicago was also a movie?

  • Yeah, but there PERFORMING on a stage. My school had an "oscar night" once, and it was for all these differant kids who made movies, and we have "showcases" for stuff like this. My school would not be dumb enough to call stage stuff "OSCARS" this school must have a shitty theater program.

  • after the little stories teh beginning of the chorus was NOT STRONG AT ALL

    acting was poor btw

    no attitude of a murderess in them

  • singing ok, dancing TERRIBLE.

  • This is annoying this girls can sing but the acting sucks and so does the choreography

  • wow this was really bad..  =(

  • their acting wasen't very good but singing wise i guess they were alright

  • that was horrible! the only good thing was the singing, which was really good. But other than that...=/

    Sorry to be so harsh, but I go to an arts school and idk. I just expected much better even though its just a high school cuz I know my school could nail it with singing, dancing, and acting..

  • Haha...I go to an Arts school...and I'm always soo harsh on "regulars"

    sorry if that sounds rude to anyone

  • me too hahaha

  • eh it was alright. singing was cool, but the acting could have been better. some of those girls should stay away from the vabrato

  • Pretty good for just a high school :]

  • o mio dio fa veramente pietà nn sanno nemmeno ballare mio dio che scandalo....ma in conpenso hanno belle voci

  • they aren't saying it "right" because they aren't mimicking the movie...they're doing the broadway musical...2 different things!

  • I didn't like the pop, six, squish, etc. parts, they sounded off

  • I hate it!!!They are being stupid...They aren't saying it right!!

  • well they're good at the singing parts less good at the acting parts and horrible at the dancing parts!for someone who doesn't have anything to do with dance,cause i highly doubt that any of them is taking dancing lessons,it was ok

    they were just doing some movements

    what was missing at all was the passion(well they had a bit at the acting parts)this particular part of chicago is full of passion,anger,feeling!they had any of them,they only tried to copy the movements and the acting style

  • that was good, but there needed to be more emotion in the voice and u shouldve gotten more into the dancing.

  • it was really really good i know how hard it must be to practice and perform all that but the one thing i will say is that it needed more anger and passion and when u sort of do the really high like opera notes it just doesnt go the song is meant to be rough,angry and passionate and thats all that it lacked but other than that it was really really good :)

  • you guys should have put in more feeling as if that was your life.you sing good but is that how you would talk if your husband did that to you?sing with compassion and emotion next time

  • sweet

  • I love the ending

  • they're only trying to mimick the exact vocals and voice of the original. it doesnt demonstrate the ability to make a charcter yourself

  • The only good actress was the girl who played Velma.

  • No emotion in their voices at all!

  • very good for highschool though...

  • Wasn't angry enough for this song/act... Good singing, though ^^

  • u said single yeah right it supposed to be single my ass!

  • It's in highschool...

    Teachers watch this so they have to censor for them

  • hahaha 'ass' isn't a bad word. i understand fuck and shit, but hell, the musical my school has all those words.

    LAMEO

  • The acting is so painful to watch, its just so cringingly baaadddddddd, but the singing is good.

  • i thought it was good but i didnt feel the passion wen you explaining why you killed them and when u were singing i felt you wanted to sound relly good but you have pretty good voice

  • my schools performance was better. they had the hungarian, they had guys, good choreography, and the red clothes for the blood

  • they were good. i liked it

  • I love how you cut out the Hungarians part because none of you are competent enough to learn her lines. haha Choreography was awful. The costumes don't even match and non of you are in sync. ha good singing though

  • fantastic!!

  • i want acting

  • lol seriously...the singing was ok....but they coulda but more emotion into it....no one can tounc my girl CZJ

  • Um...please act?

    But the singings good.

  • brilliant!

  • To those who said it was bad because of lack of costumes and choreography, they're in high school. They probably put this together themselves. They did their best, and maybe they couldn't afford costumes. I thought it was pretty good, myself, (although I wished they'd left in the Hungarian woman, though I suppose they can't say her lines).

    That was great, especially for High Schoolers.

  • theres me thinking its a school production and not a west end theatre show?

    Jesus.

    give these girls a break, they are fantastic!

  • full pit orchestra would've been nice...

  • I thought they rendered this big production scene down to high school stage level very well. Beautiful voices and though they weren't 'conny' enough for the ones on murderess' row they did very well with what they had to work with.

    kudos!

  • i think its a good try, but this is a really hard thing to do without the proper amount of people, room, and emotion. kudos for trying, though.

  • They have really nice voices.

  • everyone says it wasnt that good but think it was great! the dancing was good! the singing was great! the acting is really in the middle! but overall i think it was magnifico!

  • i cried from pain of watching this....

    Choreography was horrid...i want to punch something..

    But the voices were good...the acting sucked. =/ Except the first girl was kinda good.

  • costumes & choreography very poor & needs sooo much work. but some real good voices & i love how the girl doing annie (the woman that talks about her husband having six wives) acts, shes the best.

  • omg they well miss out the hungarian woman :O

    and it isnt impossible to do her speech btw

    my mate did it in a version she was in

  • its ok but the chorus needs way more anger, and yea the choriography is weak however strong acting and in some stnog vocals too.

  • pretty good for high school. .. oh well.

  • good vocals...energy's good until it starts fading towards the end...the choreography, however, doesn't even resemble fosse...and, sorry, but the costumes don't fit the number, guys!

  • Um, probably because being a high school and all they cant wear provacitive clothing.

    I thought it was good

  • Pretty damn good!

  • yea it wasn't bad but it did lack alot of energy and their outfits didn't fit the role either.. But they are really good singers, i give them that.

  • needs more energy and passion. not so bad. :D

  • yEaH eNeRgY LacKinG..aNd i DonT mUcH LikE iT sOOo cHoReoGraPhEd..bUt i LikE The CHAiR cOnCePt ThoUgh ^^

  • Hehe, good singers but lack energy.

    We're doing chicago right now as part of a school production and by chance we have a Hungarian playing Amos so we're sorted lanuage wise.

    And for anyone dying to know what Hunyak says in her cell block tango speech here is a rough translation

    "They said that I did it but I am innocent. They said i held the postman while he was beheaded but no one held him. But Uncle Sam will be fair and he will know that I am innocent.

    Something like that

  • A highSCHOOL redid this can you say inappropriate

  • They are missing a girl. The one who says Ah ah... Shes my favorite..

  • dude...WHERE ARE THE FISHNETS!!!! sorry but i disaprove of the choreography its just too plain for a chicago number. and you guys dont sound ANGRY! plus when you're onstage all of your gestures need to be BIG! and wtf six! HELLA loud!

  • it needs more attitude.

  • I liked and I understand why they edited the language they are in high school after all! Even my college's performance edited the langauge but they should have kept the Hunyak though. I understand that finding someone who can speak the langauge can be hard but what about another langauge?

  • ok. so, first of all, what are you they wearing? next, do they realize who they are and what they've done to be where they are? dirty yourselves up a bit. other than that, why do they all sound like singers; where's the intensity? it's obvious it's high school. they're cute...

  • What happened to the 'uh-huh' chick? she was my favorite!

  • aww..

    what happened to "uh-uh"...

    She was my favorite...

    Pretty good job for a High School Production though.

  • ya,, it sounds too happy ..

    theyre in jail..

    not barbie dollhouse

  • Ugh this is terrible!!!! I hate those bitches holding over the notes just to hear the vibrato! Whatev! It sux major!!!!!

  • the choreography was ripped of from the movie...eew. The performance could have been a bit more livelier...

  • the "Cicero" part was kinda lame. it should have been powerful. great voice though. Not enough energy for the whole team.

  • they sound too goody when they sing to be murderers...

  • hold up trick first off u need to watch who u gittin crunk wit you janky hoe.... aiight?????????????

  • P.S. WHAT HAPPEND TO "AAAAAAHHH"???

    - natalie

  • well helloooooooooooo! its all in another language!

  • ***AND THAT IS THE FUCKING REASON FOR SOME AMATEURS TO DECIDE TO EDIT IT OUT (*LOL*) - IF YA GOING TO DO SOMETHING THAT FUCKING FANTASTIC THEN YOU SHOULD COME FULL THROTTLE... BESIDES THAT PART WAS THE SHORTEST PART - NOT THAT FUCKING DIFFICULT TO REMEMBER (*LOL*)...... PLUS THE CHICKS STILL CHANGED THE STUFF THAT WAS IN ENGLISH (*LMAO*) - DON'T BLAME THE FUCKING LANGUAGE! (*LMAO*)***

    - natalie

  • ***THE VOICES & THE MUSIC SOUND GREAT, BUT THE DANCING REALLY SHOULD HAVE BEEN MORE DEVELOPED...... I WAS A LITTLE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE CHOREOGRAPHY***

    - natalie

  • lol single YEAHHH RIGHHHTTTT! LMFAO Can't get enough of that.

  • Okay: But they changed the words so... now it sucks!!!!:)

  • i didn't find it boring at all. great job

  • WOw its really good. but it felt kinda boring since they arent doing anyhting

  • I loved it!!

  • Wow impressive, I hope i can find the same talent for the all male version at my highschool :P

  • Nice singing but horribly boring.

  • Um I dont think it was a play I think it was a variety show

  • very good singers but they could have done more with the dance#

  • they're pretty good.

    i see they had to change it a little to be able to do it at a school function...

  • They sound very good...but emotion-wise, they're completely flat. Where's the anger, the indignation?

  • I'm Surprised They Let A high SChool Do This Play....

    but They Sound Pretty i just couldnt see 'um

  • really o.o my school did les mis my freshmen year.....I think that's more inappropriate then chicago. we also did jekyll and hyde last year....which is even more inappropriate then both chicago and les mis XD XD

  • how is les mis inappropriate?

  • well....prostitution, violence, yadda yadda ect. ect.

  • oh i suppose.....ok yea i agree that it's a bit inapproproate! =)

  • pretty good for high school girls. their tone is great.

  • and where are the guys? do none of the girls have a boyfriend they can drag into it? they're saying, "he had it comin." but who is he?

    me and my friends are doing a cabaret soon, we're in the same situation as you, I don't know if yours is, but, ours is student choreographed, when it happens, I'll try and get a video up.

  • No Hunyak? its the best part, cause no one knows what the hell she's saying, but you love it.

    It should have been more than it was,

    It is a FOSSE NUMBER, more than just a song, with chairs and black clothes.

    I understand that you may not have had the dancing ability that everyone else is talking about, but a few, well placed, fierce, fosse poses would be appreciated.

  • You Guys were great don't listen to everyone else SING ON!!

  • No, we aren't confused, you just need to get your butts in gear. Christ, I am a boy, and I did Cicero. I did a much better job than that. I had emotion, and I knew the Fosse steps, I had the voice. Being a Chicago fan, I spit on this film.

  • I think most of you guys are confused...this was done as an entertainment act during our Senior Oscar Night. They didn't do the entire musical, just this song. It was put together in about 5 days, and they did as much as they could, with administration restricting them quite a bit. Take it for what it is...a high school talent performance.

  • we did it at my drama group - in a small church hall, and we had a dance, all knew our lines, had guys who danced and were passionate. we lost the video, otherwise we would put it on here! and we didn't wear lingeree, but it still looked sexy etc! x x x x

  • I understand that high school versions of musicals like this have to be toned down a bit, but holy crap! It was like "Cell Block Tap Your Foot and Go Down on One Knee a Lot"! And I didn't believe that ANY of the girls could ever get angry enough to kill their lovers! The singing was great, but in all honesty, putting on a musical is about so much more than just singing. It's about putting together voice, movement, and emotion. I just didn't see that here.

  • Is my school the only school that actually had the girls in lingerie and doing provocative dances?

  • These little tarts have murdered Chicago!

  • you could have put a much better dance.

    Not only the singing....Try next time!

  • Come on guys...Dancing? Wow. None of it. Voices would have been better if you actually sang with emotion. Cicero? come on. You sound bored. And no Hunyak? guessing you wern't talented enough to learn the lines.

  • Wow that was horrible. My school did the whole production of Chicago and we danced our asses off. I was Squish and all six of us had to dance and sing on 4 - 6 ft platforms. Not to mention we actually had a Hunyak who knew her lines. And your "dancing"...you would have been better with out it.

  • Wow. I played Cicero at my school. You sounded bored, you all do and we didn't have a hunyak but we replaced it with a girl who knew her spanish and we sang AND danced. I DANCED the TANGO and SANG. We all had different additudes and made sure you could tell the differences. You need more energy.

  • Oh my goodness.

    Cicero!! Come on man.

    I've played cicero. And That was not cicero.

    Next time do your research girls.

  • Im sorry, but this sucks. They need to sound more angrier. They sound like they are singing in a choir. PUT FEELING IN IT GIRLS! D:

  • BORING

  • BabySphinx88

    theres no actual tango in cell block tango haha

  • let me guess: There was no Hunyak (Uh-uh!) because no one could learn the text...

    Well, the singing sounds a little bit strange some parts and there are to few different moves, but the arrangement was good. But I've seen much better performances of that...

  • wow! finally! Some girls that actually sing it, instead of just dancing to it! :) good job! it's cool!

  • haha, cicero girl sounds bored. CICEROOOOOOOOOOO

  • Eh...

    Not bad.. I liked the singing, and the talking part was really good! But.. The dancing lacked emotion. ^^ I totally understand if you didn't wanna do to much and have to sing and whatnot aswell, because you run out of air.

    ^_^ I liked it though! Keep practising.

    ~Gotta Love Turk

  • All Girls school? Wheres the Tango??? The characters didn't really seem seperated at all. They could have all been the same people. :( Like in the broadway show the characters were all very distinct. :(

    Sorry. I'm dissapointed.

  • kool

  • amazing!!! great!!! preatty good singers and feeling!

  • Why was there no Hungarian?

  • This one is really good, this puts the other ones people have done to shame.

  • very very good

  • pretty amazing for a high school production?!im like in basic school and im better at acting than those girls!

  • GLHS? on my YouTube?!

  • that was amazing for a high school priduction!!! you should have used guys though.

  • where's the "not guilty " hungarian girl? uh uh?!

  • i luv how they did the end b4 dey went back 2 their chairs

  • That's pretty good! Really good singers! But I didn't get the right feeling, like the right emotion from the singers. But otherwise it was good!

  • VERY GOOD

  • really goos singers, dancers - no!

  • This production of the musical "Chicago" is very... blazé, if we will. The actors possess no passion, no energy, no spirit and no "umph.” The girls seem bored and tired of the show. They don't care about the characters they are supposed to be. They can sing, I give you that, but they do not connect with the audience, nor do they have the right timbre or agressiveness that their characters should possess. The actors also seem to lack creativity in movement / dance. Where did the Hungarian go?

  • I agree with pcy623. The singing was pro, but it just wasn't what they SHOULD sound like. It seems to be too "sweet"...

    and...the dancing's weird @.@;;

  • You have to remember this was a performance at a highschool event, so they couldn't portray the full characters and attitudes, and also couldn't do a lot of the risque dancing that's in the video.

  • Wow. That was really good.

  • For a highschool production that was very well done! You guys should feel very good about that.

  • You guys did a great job with the vocals and I liked how you guys changed the song around. But I hated the talking in the background so I could hardly hear you guys. The dancing was ok.

  • heyy great job. i am doing chicago for my high school spring musical next weekend, i play annie in the cell block tango (six), i am sorry that you did the movie version, the stage version is ten times better! did you guys learn the notes? you guys sound really good!
