[MrPigglesworth]

[Iamawsomelike]

@MrPigglesworth watch the film and it will make sence

[THEWARLORD602]

i could just see ronnie corbet playing joel grays part,, lol now that would be class

[peterlinie3]

Joel Grey was the real star of this film. Superb.

[pinkcow44u]

HES WEARING LIP LIP LIP LIPSTICK EEP!

[artizek]

This guy just terrifies me. I don't even know why.

[pinkpensive]

I wish there was a movie more like the stage version. I like how risque the stage version is.

[inkalus]

I need two ladies :(

[darkknightmage]

XD i dont know ehy but i just imagine pee wee herman playing this roll

[ValtronW]

0:08 ........such attitude.

[TheElectricDreamer93]

giggity

[68JamesDio]

great!

[PhilippineAmerican]

This guy is so adorable in this song. I would have done the same thing that lady in the audience had done. Try to pull him off stage.

[MRPMCat89]

Is it only me or did Joel Grey as the MC look like an obscene version of Austin Scarlett?

[TheAmylou1994]

the disapproving face of Joel Grey when he says 'one people'

[96marzie]

menage de trois!

[DiehardMechWarrior]

...

You guys DO know that this is about having a threesome, right?

RIGHT?

[66xXDeathIsNearXx66]

@DiehardMechWarrior It's not about having a threesome, it's about you being perverted. It's showing the leftists and rights, I.E. communist party in Germany and the Nazi party. Of course you wouldn't be able to understand, would you?

[DiehardMechWarrior]

@66xXDeathIsNearXx66

ohyou.jpg

How presumptuous and immature of you to assume that I was perverted.

How very right you are...kinda.

I was merely parroting another's opinion!

[66xXDeathIsNearXx66]

@DiehardMechWarrior Then allow me to apologize with:

HAHA, DISREGARD THAT I SUCK COCKS.

[o0moxyxmoron0o]

@66xXDeathIsNearXx66 Really?

Then I have been analyzing this song wrong this whole time...I thought it was just supposed to represent Sally, Max, and Brian's relationship.

[heathergee28]

Isn't the one girl in red actually a guy in drag...?

[MRPMCat89]

@heathergee28 Yes it is

[K5to9X]

Is it wrong that I want to be one of those girls? Joel Grey in this movie... Am I the only one that finds him super attractive?

I have issues... Haha.

[alttab7890]

@K5to9X Oh wow..hahaha!

[jaxfatale1995]

@K5to9X Nah, me too, but I think it's humor... and the fact he's a straight man who is willing to wear heavy makeup for the sake of a musical... then again, what man wouldn't if it meant he could be with... ahem... "two ladies"! ;)

[IndigoChild6]

I adore Joel Gray omg <3

[angryglare]

had this stuck in my head when i went shopping with my mum in john lewis. i got up to the "and i'm the only man" bit of the chorus and saw some guy stop fussing with his pram to stare at me :/

[SMcD1992]

Joel Grey just plays the subtext just a little bit more than Alan, who just lays it flat out on stage. They both are different takes, both are good in their own way.

[boombox889]

@rebeccalafferty what's fun is how blatantly disgusting Alan Cumming performs this song.

[googagirl]

I just absolutely love this movie and number, I love the fact that the whole movie Cabaret is a huge political statement!

[rebeccalafferty]

Alan cumming is a better emcee in my opinion

[vezacagar]

00:07

[solitudinarian]

Still wondering which song was first, this one or Manamana..

[Boylespoof]

@solitudinarian Please check out the Muppets-Version: watch?v=Iqakjzgi8GU

[ZeldaGiygasLord603]

It's like if Quagmire was a German metrosexual...

[TheElectricDreamer93]

@ZeldaGiygasLord603 Giggity

[Kopit10]

Lovely!

[jessica23claire]

I can't decide which version I like better: this version or the one with Alan Cummings as the Emcee. Either way, I am definitely checking out this movie/musical.

[TheRaven971]

I was in a production of Cabaret, and I was LuLu (The lady in the green dress). For all you guys wondering, it's spelled "Beedle, dee dee dee!". And it's a FANTASTIC song/show to be in, bahaha xD

And yes, the second lady (in the red dress) is a man. It's a gay waiter named Bobby.

[TheSoulMan8]

@TheRaven971 it isn't Bobby in this, that was only in the revival in the 90s at this point it was still actually two ladies

[yukifan23]

@TheSoulMan8 It's Bette.

[deathpandaz]

It's amazing how catchy this weird little song is...

[ratlover35]

@deathpandaz yeah it really gets stuck in your head..though it's the most awkward thing for a teen girl to sing in public...

[btomimatsucunard]

I swear one of those girls looks like a man! ;)

[taiyo888]

@btomimatsucunard One of the girls IS a man.

[DerGeisterbahnFreak]

In Germany we spell it "Diddlidididi"

but in English it's "Deedlee Dee de Dee"

[PhantomWerewolf]

...am i wrong to compare this guy to quagmire?

[Bowmaj21]

I wonder how you spell that?

Is it "Biddlydeedeedee?"

[ValtronW]

There's something adorable about that man.

Maybe it's his height.

[TeenageNintendoGamer]

NOTHING beats the "Ya" at 0:41 Nothing.

[1dolphingrl]

Pure genius comedy. Love it!! Watched this thousands of times.

[DPfanvids]

My college did Cabaret, and when they did this song, one of the ladies was a man in drag XD It was hilarious!

[Bloodyidit]

@DPfanvids

in the original Broadway script, that was what happened.

XD

[corhydron111]

joel grey - the best MC ever

[Klinossophistis]

Ἔξοχο!

[Muppio]

What....the....fuck.....excuse me, i need to pick my brain up of the floor.

[FM5KR6F2007]

But zere's room on ze bottom if ya'd hop in some night.

[honeypie767]

@FM5KR6F2007 I love that part ... especially when he crawls into that lady's lap (the one in the audience).

[FM5KR6F2007]

@honeypie767 Its my favourite line in the whole film

[XxXMissPeppermintXxX]

This is fucked up... I LOVE IT!

[XxMissNoNamexX]

@XxXMissPeppermintXxX How is it fucked up?

[XxXMissPeppermintXxX]

@XxMissNoNamexX I'm just saying its really weird and not what I'm used too. But thats why I love it.

[FM5KR6F2007]

joel grey is fuckin awesome

[evildevilgirl02]

I wanna be that lady in the audience!

[Ladymanico]

teeeeheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[cerzule]

Ridiculously catchy song.

[billyfornication]

Joel Grey is scary in cabaret ! look at 0:09 ! I guess that's what makes him so awsome.

[NLBtheONLYfiyero]

i LOVE Joel Grey!

[rox678910]

HAHA!

[CressidaTussaud]

@therealcritic28 Let's hope not

[Jokaire]

@therealcritic28 There's been a discussion on that already in the depths of this thread ... no, she's not a man but indeed a woman.

I, however, can imagine her being picked for that role just because she may be easily mistaken. Under all that make-up and costume, you never know ... Perhaps in the end, someone you'd never have thought it of might be the man amongst all those ladies ;)

[therealcritic28]

@Jokaire

Mm, yeah . . . it's even more confusing because for this song they usually /do/ have one of the ladies played rather blatantly as a man, for a joke . . . ah well.

[SiiinginInTheRain]

@therealcritic28 Nah, she's shown in the dance sequence in the beginning for Willkommen (in a bra) and her body is clearly female.

[therealcritic28]

@SiiinginInTheRain

Yes . . . I realize that, thank you . . . I was making a sarcastic joke, based off of the way the song is usually performed. :)

[icame2hvefun]

1 person doesn't have two ladies...

[contemporatango]

@icame2hvefun

Haha, but many men have two women thou... admitting it or not admitting it.... that's the question

[NightmaresDaydream]

@icame2hvefun

Ofcourse. In german we call something like that "offene Beziehung", thats "open partnership" but im sure there is a word for it in every language ;) And even when one betrays his partner he have two girls for that time.

[billyfornication]

@NightmaresDaydream In french it is : "ménage à trois" :)

[icame2hvefun]

@NightmaresDaydream lol I was saying for the dislikes. XD although now it's 3...

[Jokaire]

This song is so catchy! I'm walking around and suddenly hear myself go "diddlee-det-de-deee"! Hope that doesn't happen to me on the bus or something ...

[alttab7890]

@Jokaire Lololol!..omg..can u imagine?

[Winterstick549]

Yaaaa!,,,,hahaha!

[MadameMadHatter]

I love you Joel Grey. He is the best!!!!

[IndianaJoker]

This version (and the original) reign supreme. It's playfully sexuaity and innuendo is the perfect mood for the Klub. However, the revival is way too hyper-sexual in this song:it's basically softcore porn.

[iwashungry4hands]

@kingpita172 i'm almost positive it is but i think they must have dubbed his voice with an actual woman's because it sounds way too girly and strangely it looks like "he" has boobs :/

[kyrastube]

@iwashungry4hands well, its not hard for a man to dreate a cleevage. just puch up the breats-muscles and then put on a very much to small sports-bra. I know quite a few guys who drag, so I know the tricks. ;)

[iwashungry4hands]

@kyrastube haha good to know. but i read on a few other videos' comments that the person is in fact a woman. I feel bad for her now though considering it was so hard for us to tell

[kyrastube]

@iwashungry4hands oh crap, well, maybe she likes it that way, who knows, maybe she is a superbutchy dyke or something. ;) 

[sensemaya1]

Love this. Thank you. Any possibility of " If you could her through my eyes"?

[Tammykaate]

No one could ever be better at this than Joel Grey <3 he is just soo fucking funny :D

[kingpita172]

My mom thinks the one with the red skirt is a man...

[isapook1]

HE IS SO  AWSOME HE IS BRILLIANT!

[DoctorZloToon]

what the....am i blind ?.. is there a picture of an corpse covered with a coat and blood wich is revolved by guards/soldiers ? (before the video starts ) 0:00

is this a part of the movie ?

[MelancholyKitty]

@DoctorZloToon Sweetie, you are not blind BUT you clearly haven't seen the movie, it's not all about singing and dancing, it's actually very dark... rent it, you'll love it...dead bodies and all:-)

[blithium]

@DoctorZloToon Yep. It's a very important part of the movie.

[kyrastube]

@DoctorZloToon it is a body there. it takes place in germany 1932... nazis killing/beating up people in the whole movie... but the most disturbing part for me is the singing hitler-jugend that get a whole crowd to sing with him. look up "tomorrow belongs to me"

[HPgeek2]

Joel Grey is made of pure awesomeness!

[Demithegoddess]

This is SO Much better then the Alan Cummings stage version. It's just funnier and even cute. The Alan Cummings is just . . . icky. This is the best one!!! Joey Grey rules.

[Azurarose]

@Demithegoddess Alan's version is just raw sex. This one has class. They're two different takes on the same role.

[Demithegoddess]

Gee, wonder why he didn't do this one on the Muppet show. :p

[Geordles]

I love this movie. Very progressive for when it was released. Thanks for posting.

[Leafygreenmuffin]

Best song in all of Cabaret. Joel Grey is fantastic!

[ezzavezza]

FAAAABULOUS!!
