Don't get me wrong... I LOVE this song! But, I don't think it's good without the scenery...
-
@PatrickWrocks You just didn't see the original off-broadway cast with the people in this video.
-
I promise you, the actual show is SO much better than it seems here/in the videos from youtube. Except Roger. I personally didn't like him but the show in general is fantastic.

This specific performance doesn't sound whole, they all sound very thin.
-
Pretty much half of the cast changed now. And, I have seen the revival, and I must say...based on every single recording the show looks awful. BUT, live, it is a different story. They were completly on pitch and everything was just perfect.

Shit

I do really like the Roger here.

@mcolinjones YOU'RE RIGHT. they sound awful together
Is it me, or do they not have particularly good blend?

Seems like whoever decided to go onto the show didn't think properly about how to translate what they do in the theatre into what they'll do in this situation. The cast look uncomfortable. This song is really a scene, and is pretty hard to make it work when you're performing it out with loads of mic-stands all around. I don't think I'd go on this performance to make a decision about what I think of the cast, or new production.
