  • DOWN ON SKID.

  • The guy at 2:29 has the best voice in the world. honestly, the best.

  • The lady at 0:34 that starts the scene off has some serious singing ability..Love her voice!

  • I love this musical! Our schools doing this

  • we are doing this musical in my school

  • Comment removed

  • It's really annoying me who plays the black guy at 2:29, some people have said it's Levi Stubbs, and some say it's Danny John Jules, but it looks like neither of them, and Danny John Jules is in the 'Da-Doo' song and he looks about 20 years too young to be the guy at 2:29 :p

  • that black guy made the song amazing. :-T! I wish he singed more I love him, i remember him even when I was a kid, he is just awesome sauce nuff said.

  • DOWN ON SKID...

  • very cool the music

  • we are doing this for our musical in school and i get to do the part at 2:29 :D

  • @judebiehler He's the voice of Audrey II

  • Matt B was in Ferris Buellers day off (released 1986). and it certainly isnt him at 2:26 unless thats serious make up to make him look 20 years older than he actually was.

  • i dont understand the part with the people climbin the gate

  • i did this musical before, but it was so badly produced o god they couldve done it so much better.

  • one thing is for sure, they don't make them like this anymore...

  • @judebiehler Most hilarious comment of all time.^^^

  • @judebiehler Damn, he can belt like nobody's business!

  • @shacobo, no this is not Levi stubbs the voice of Audrey II at 2:29

  • @freakshadyb It's actually Danny John Jules

  • @judebiehler dude, i have always loved that guy! its one of my favorite parts of this song!

  • Gina, Pam & some other chick.

  • "You go downtown, where everyone can sing..." 

  • Mista when you from skid row, ain't no such thing

  • @judebiehler Seriously the guy at 2:29 is the voice of audry II please like this to clear up confusion.

  • @shacobo It's Danny John Jules

  • @shacobo no its not! the voice of audrey II is levi stubbs, google him and you will see he looks nothing like the guy here

  • @shacobo Vevi Stubbs of the Four Tops did the voice of Audrey II. He did an excellent performace and helped make this movie one of my favorites.

  • Sadly, this is the ghettos of America...

  • sik

  • 2:28 DOWN OHHWN SKID

  • i just saw this whole movie for the first time. now i want to perform this show so bad. but my school only does musicals every other year. and that's not this year.

  • Everytime I see Danny John Jules in the background in this film I have the urge to yell 'CAT!!!'

    I watch too much Red Dwarf it seems.

  • @lilanthia Ack! The Cat?! Where is he??

  • Has anyone else ever noticed the lady to the far right at 2:06 almost falls in her heels? After the group stops singing she is the only one moving, looking down to see what she slipped on lol

  • @osuebonydyme then she looks at her feets and is like "did i fall??" rofl

  • them some tig ole bitties right there!!

  • @ 0:02 the girl on the right is that the girl that plays on the waya

    ns show... that hot ass girl?

  • I'm doing this as a play, and i'm Chiffon:)

  • @theholyhorehay It all makes sense now! It wasn't Seymour that got rid of Audrey 2, but the doctor!

  • Depending on which came first, either the Muses from Hercules wandered onto the wrong set, or these women became music goddesses. Either seems likely.

    {Seriously, They have the same voices, same role, and a couple of them even look the same!}

  • @Kira1Lawliet i always thought this!

  • @Kira1Lawliet haha it's actually the same composer. That's why they sound so similar.

  • @Kira1Lawliet Correct me if Im wrong, but the guy that made this, wrote the music for hercules lol

  • @janthony657 Yep, Alan Menken. He wrote the music for The Little Mermaid, Beauty and the Beast, Aladdin, Pocohontas, the Hunchback of Notre Dame, Hercules, The Last Castle, Home on the Range, Enchanted, and Tangled. He collaborated for a lot of it, though, with people like Steven Schwartz and Tim Rice. They usually wrote the lyrics for him.

  • @Kira1Lawliet The style is called a greek chorus. The three are meant to sing very, very similarly (so it sounds like it's one person singing in harmony with themselves), and of course it's better if they look alike. A lot of the time you'll find that greek choruses do resemble each other in behaviors and style of singing.

  • @Kira1Lawliet the music was written by the same person Alan Menken

  • 1:33 Down town, where the food is slop, down town... "where the hobbits flock"? Really now?... I knew nothing good come out of those Buckland strangers *squinty eye*

  • The Girls Were Named after famous groups  Crystal- The Crystals/ Ronnett- The Ronnetts/ Chiffions- The Chiffions

  • The three backup singers have the prettiest dresses :)

  • Be You Ta  Full

  • I'm currently doing backstage on my towns little shop of horrors production :)

  • Anyone else see the TARDIS at 4:08?

  • @theholyhorehay The TARDIS plus an alien trying to take over the world? Me thinks there is a connection.

  • @theholyhorehay But... there's no box...

  • @theholyhorehay wats TARDIS

  • @Ifrekinlovecookies TARDIS stands for 'Time and Relative Dimension in Space'. It's from Doctor Who...its basically a time machine/space ship.

  • Gina and Pam!!!

  • I love this song It's one of my favorites Screw Justin Beaver, Lady Gaga(Although she is awesome), and Kesha these voices are real not autotuned like yours.

  • The guy at 230 is the voice of the plant audrey listen to him and listen to the plant same voice so he does sing more in the movie .

  • WOW the guy at 2:30 has an amazing voice i wish he sang more of this :)

  • Downtown/Skid Row ain't that bad if everyone there can sing a song out of nowhere and be good at it too XD

  • 55 people are jerks from uptown.

    

  • That guy at 2:29 has a really powerful voice. :) But this song makes me want to listen to it over and over again. The lady who started the song had a really powerful voice also, and then there is Ellen Greene, whos voice is absolutely amazing! And of course there are the lovely Split Chicks...lol. Everyone in this movie has a really great voice that makes you watch it even when you think it is going to be stupid..they make it worth watching. The movie is really good too!

  • Definite childhood favorite! And I'm just curious, but IS there a way to SHUT THESE ADS UP? I swear they're like old ladies; they interrupt the shit outta you!

  • I like the lady who starts the song off. That lady got soul :D<3

  • This is my senior year and we are planning on doing this for our last play. This is my childhood musical and i would love if i got the part of Seymour. this is the best song on the the whole song!

  • That black dude killed it
