Angel Desai sings "Another Hundred People" from the 2006 revival of Stephen Sondheim's "Company."

On the DVD, this number is interspersed with dialog, is spread across three tracks and lasts 12:26. I extracted the music portions and mashed the three pieces together. I had to leave 0:30 of dialog at the end, though - it's so New York.

0:00 Excerpt 1
1:15 Excerpt 2
2:01 Excerpt 3
3:30 Closing "It's About Me" dialog

Pamela Myers sings this for the 1970 original Broadway cast album at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OiWn4k9Vl7g

This video is an excerpt from the highly recommended 2008 PBS DVD "Company." The DVD is Region 1 only (US/Canada DVD players or worldwide PC DVD players).

In 2007, "Company" won Tony Awards for "Best Revival of a Musical" and "Best Direction of a Musical (John Doyle)." Raúl was nominated for Best Performance by a Leading Actor in a Musical. The original 1970 production was nominated for 12 Tony awards and won 6 of them.

PBS and Image Media affirmed their copyright of this material - but are allowing the posts on YouTube. We extend our warmest thanks to them.

  • @JSchnabbs I did as you ordered. I didn't laugh. In fact, I loved it.

  • @QuartanAidan I don't care where her resonance is. Her mask, her ear or her toe. I love her, just adore her. Patti too. But Angel, oh my goodness.

  • @lexellcassini Only if you promise to watch it.

  • Okay she sounds NOTHING like Patti.....Patti has immense false-vibrato issues. Angel's belt resonance is directly in her mask and Patti's is a bit farther back.

  • @JSchnabbs try to sing it and tell me if you find it funny.

  • What the hell was that at 0:40? Close your eyes and listen to it. Is that you Patti Lupone? LOL.

    How can anyone watch that part without laughing?

  • @Marktheho Was the original key higher? Lower? Pam Myers is a treasure. I love her, and I really like this young lady, Ms.Desai

  • She really sounds like Patti Lupone at the high notes to me

  • Oh Angel, I pledge my everlasting devotion to you. I might be your biggest fan out here. You are so talented and so huggable! There, I've said it again.

  • I have the Company vocal book released after the revival and AHP is in this key. It's to my understanding that that's considered the definitive version now but I could be wrong.

    I think both Angel and Pamela take on very different interpretations and I love them both equally. This is my favorite song from Company by far. <3
