  • he is so amazing!! =) but IMO he's even a better caboose... :o)

  • has any one got the australian version of about 1987 now that was good but it was here for a blink and i never can find it.. sounds very cose to this but a little better belive it or not

  • @Waxingbeauty: this has no relaton to this video. The aus cast is shocking.

  • Oliver Thornton is a god.

    Such an amazing talent!!!! :-D

  • i used to go school with oliver thornton, he was a few years above me but he was always really musical. great to see he's doing well!

  • I think it sounds great! Awesome :)

    I wish I'd seen it... x

  • AHH how weird, so I was just trundling round on Youtube for videos and I just stumbled upon one of your videos without trying hahaha cool x

  • ok i think that maybe he didnt reach the right note when he shouted starlight express. Otherwise pretty good. Someone needs to get the original up on youtube

  • No, its how they do it in germany, he played Red caboose in 2001, and understudied this role, thats why he's allowed that to influence him strongly

  • ok i see where ur coming from but still to me it sounded off key at that bit. It sounded weak aswell. i am someone who loves starlight express and it just didnt sound right.

  • i disagree, i think its the power that makes it sound off. Oliver Rhoe Thornton had one of the most powerful voices i've ever heard, when he was in rent, i went just to hear him kick out a top B. amazing vocalist.

  • have u ever heard the origanal rusty sing it. coz i have and that was amazing. The power of the one note was amazing. This to me sounds off key. It is MY opinion.

  • its not in a key, its not sung, its shouted. if you really wanna get deep about it, vocalist shouldn't shout like a normal person, so they use the same technique as singing. by riginal rusty do u mean ray shell? I find a shouted emotive performance better than a bluesy lower sung version. for me, Jermey Kocals has the best beginning to this song. I'm not knocking your opinion, but its not sung, so it can't be off key.

  • Well i am saying it doesn't sound right to me. It is my opinion and to me it doesnt sound right.

  • I was in London in 1995 for the musical. And since I am a huge fan of starlight express. It is the best in the world. I hope that it is still listed in England, because next year I'm back in London.

  • It ended its run a couple of years ago.

  • like 9....

  • cool starlight express is my favourite musical

  • I wish it was still I am the starlight. That song was beast.

  • SO CATCHY!

  • wow! the way these two sing this together it sounds amazin oliver thornton'a voice is amazin & strong and michael samuels voice is just outstanding!

    saw this cast they were fab I love starlight :]

  • michael samuels is the best singer, period. (no wonder, he's operatically schooled) At least when I saw him in Gothenburg... today, actually. :)

  • I LOVE oliver thornton

  • mee two :)

  • @jessonine Don't we all lol :P - I cant remember when i saw starlight but it was the last uk tour so im thinking it must have been Oliver **needs to find my programme** :P
