- CHOIRGIRL:
Bless this day,
Pinnacle of life,
Husband joined to wife.
The heart leaps up to behold
This golden day.
PAUL:
Today is for Amy,
Amy, I give you the rest of my life,
To cherish and to keep you, to honor you forever.
Today is for Amy,
My happily soon-to-be wife.
AMY:
Pardon me, is everybody here? Because if everybody's here, I
want to thank you all for coming to the wedding, I'd appreciate
your going even more, I mean you must have lots of better things
to do, and not a word of this to Paul, remember Paul, you know,
the man I'm gonna marry, but I'm not, because I wouldn't ruin
anyone as wonderful as he is--
Thank you all
For the gifts and the flowers,
Thank you all,
Now it's back to the showers,
Don't tell Paul,
But I'm not getting married today.
CHOIRGIRL:
Bless this day,
Tragedy of life,
Husband joined to wife.
The heart sinks down and feels dead
This dreadful day.
AMY:
Listen, everybody, look, I don't know what you're waiting for,
a wedding, what's a wedding, it's a prehistoric ritual
where everybody promises fidelity forever, which is
maybe the most horrifying word I ever heard of, which is
followed by a honeymoon, where suddenly he'll realize he's
saddled with a nut, and wanna kill me, which he should--
Thanks a bunch,
But I'm not getting married--
Go have lunch,
'Cause I'm not getting married--
You've been grand,
But I'm not getting married--
Don't just stand there,
I'm not getting married--
And don't tell Paul,
But I'm not getting married today.
Go, can't you go?
Why is no-
Body listening?
Goodbye,
Go and cry
At another person's wake.
If you're quick,
For a kick,
You could pick
Up a christening,
But please,
On my knees,
There's a human life at stake!
Listen everybody, I'm afraid you didn't hear, or do you want to
see a crazy lady fall apart in front of you, it isn't only Paul
who may be ruining his life, you know we'll both of us be losing
our identities, I telephoned my analyst about it and he said to
see him Monday, but by Monday I'll be floating in the Hudson with
the other garbage--
I'm not well,
So I'm not getting married--
You've been swell,
But I'm not getting married--
Clear the hall,
'Cause I'm not getting married--
Thank you all,
But I'm not getting married--
And don't tell Paul,
But I'm not getting married today.
CHOIRGIRL:
Bless this bride,
Totally insane,
Slipping down the drain.
And bless this day in our hearts
As it starts
To rain.
PAUL:
AMY: Today is for
Go, can't you go? Amy,
Look, you know Amy,

But why The rest of
Watch me die My life,
Like Eliza on the ice? To cherish
Look, perhaps And to keep you,
I'll collapse To honor you
In the apse Forever,
Right before you all, Today is for Amy,
So take My happily
Back the cake, Soon-to-be
Burn the shoes and boil the rice. Wife,
Look, I didn't wanna have to My adorable
tell you, but I may be coming Wife.
down with Hepatitis, and I
think I'm gonna faint, so if
you wanna see me faint, I'll
do it happily, but wouldn't
it be funnier to go and watch
a funeral, so thank you for the
twenty-seven dinner plates,
thirty-seven butter knives,
forty-seven paperweights,
fifty-seven candleholders--
PAUL:
One more thing--
AMY:

have to sing Amy's part for my musical theater class final... pray for me
same!... im super excited though
Marisa Orlando how did it go?
It actually went really well! I was having trouble remembering the correct order for the words but ended up nailing it on the day of the performance!
Marisa Orlando i hope it went well
Um...rip
fucking glee making it impossible to find a REAL karaoke version of this
***** they didn't say glee was bad they just said it made it impossible to find the original karaoke version lol
***** No everyone does not love glee.
ua-cam.com/video/Ns8IddvK10o/v-deo.html only Amy's parts
ua-cam.com/video/tER-fTwiduA/v-deo.html whole thing
I can sing Amy’s part
This is my only skill in life
Wouldn't say that. You are killer at Yu-gi-oh lol.
Idk why they always hire people who can’t do it this fast.
Her diction is just so perfect. I could hear everything she was saying even though she was singing it extremely fast. Imagine if someone like, say, Patti LuPone tried it?
musicaltheatergeek79 she did... it was rough lol.
She did and she was freaking terrific.
HAHAHAHAHA
an i oop-
Lol two kinds of people in the comments
Listen everybody, look, I know what you're waiting for. A wedding what's a wedding it's a prehistorical ritual where everybody promises fidelity forever which is maybe the most horrifying word I've ever heard of, which is followed by a honeymoon where suddenly he'll realize he saddled with a nut and wanna kill me which he should.
Best tongue twister for theatre ever.
USSshowtunes That’s the verse I’m best at the hardest one for me is the third fast verse she sings
ENTP Animatics same but mine is the first verse
I think Sondheim likes to torture the actors with stuff like this
I think you're wrong.

1:08 ish is where amy starts
1:04 if you want a couple seconds to collect yourself before trying to sing along 🤭😉
My soul says yes but my speech impediment says no
Is there a karaoke of the original version anywhere? All I can find is the glee cast, and I want to memorize this with the ~unedited~ lyrics
Same

Veanne Cox played Amy in this revival and received universally fantastic reviews. She was also nominated for a Tony for her portrayal.
I DID IT!! I MEMORIZED IT OMGGGG
One of my favorite musicals, Yes Glee did an amazing job on this song... but nothing can beat the original version...
Spent the whole night learning this song yee haw
The modulation of her voice is AMAZING!!
I'm outta breath just listening to her :P
One of my favorite versions
The best
I love this, especially the fast parts haha! Wish I could do that! 😂😂
GLEE!!!!!!!!!!!! OMG I GOTS TO KNOW!!!!!!
Lol this will be perfect for the wedding
Oh my Glob this song was a lot to process ob Glee
I like this song a lot
Saw an off-Broadway revival of this yesterday. Wonderful, hilarious.
Which off-Broadway theater?
@@grantcurry4839 GeVA in Rochester NY
(Maybe not officially "off-Broadway", but defnitely not ON Broadway ;)
Mercedes singing "Bless this bride,totally insane.." was in the full studio version. The show usually cuts songs down for time restraints. And the song was a fantasy so reality wasn't really important.
Bless this day

Amy, I give you the rest of my life

Because if everybody's here
I'd like to thank you all
For coming to the wedding.
I'd appreciate you going even more
I mean, you must have lots of better things to do
And not a word of it to Paul
Remember Paul? You know, the man I'm going to marry
But I'm not, because I wouldn't ruin anything
As wonderful as he is.
Thank you all for the gifts and the flowers,
Thank you all, now it's back to the showers
Don't tell Paul, but I'm not getting married today.
Bless this day
Tragedy of life
Husband bound to wife
The heart leaps up
And feels dead
This dreadful day.
Listen everybody, look, I don't know what you're waiting for
A wedding. What's a wedding? It's a prehistoric ritual
Where everybody promises fidelity forever,
Which is maybe the most horrifying word I ever heard of,
Which is followed by a honeymoon, where suddenly he'll realize
He's saddled with a nut, and want to kill me, which he should.
Thanks a bunch, but I'm not getting married
Go have lunch, 'cause I'm not getting married
You've been grand, but I'm not getting married
Don't just stand there, I'm not getting married
And don't tell Paul, but I'm not getting married today.
Go! Can't you go?
Why is nobody listening?
Goodbye! Go and cry
At another person's wake.

Look, you know I adore you all
But why watch me die
Like Eliza on the ice?
Look, perhaps I'll collapse
In the apse right before you all
So take back the cake
Burn the shoes, and boil the rice.
Today is for Amy,
My, happily, soon-to-be wife
My adorable wife...
Look, I didn't want to have to tell you,
But I may be coming down with hepatitis, and I think I'm gonna faint
So if you want to watch me faint, I'll do it happily
But wouldn't it be funnier to go and watch a funeral?
So thank you for the twenty-seven dinner plates
Thirty-seven butter knives
Forty-seven paperweights
Fifty-seven candle holders
One more thing...
I'm not getting married.
Amen!
Softly said...

I thee wed.
Still, I'm not getting married!
Amen!
Let us pray that we are getting married
Let us pray that we're not getting married
Today!
Wow I didn't think Glee could sing this any faster but they did.
Glee brought me here! I REGRET NOTHING!
1:04 is where the fast part starts btw
Yo tb!
ME TOOO! XD
VEANNE COX!!!
Sweet
The breath doesn’t seem as hard as the diction 🥴🥴
Well, it's a key part of what's going on in Amy/Emma's mind that also plays the audience for a cheap laugh. The way it was shown in Glee - on TV - missed that "wink and a smile" part of the song which is always the case with Sonheim. All I'm saying is that Glee has definitely made better use of songs within their story-lines and this was not their best effort, in this part case. Agree to disagree kinda thing.
Mark Jeremy Amy>Emma
Put this on 2 speed and you may be able to still comprehend some parts...put it on 0.25 and you get a horror song :P
@SuDokuMaster Lol that's the hardest line to say.

ok vine yo tb por glee XD pero WOW si emma cnata esto WOW
It was too fast and shrill. Mercedes didn't get to sing one of the best lines "Bless this bride, totally insane...". Glee is great at continually exposing kids to different music from Broadway including the genius of Stephen Sonheim. I'm happily a fan of Glee but they made a mess of this particular song. Plus what was with Will asking about his cufflinks when he wasn't even looking at his wrists and Emma being able to hear him from her chamber?! Made no sense.
Mark Jeremy this comment makes no sense. Glee just butchered classic songs.
o_o.... somebody needs help
Hmm, how so?
wemma plus Mercedes.....
I prefer the voice of opera mercedes
Aced the fast parts, first try.
Noted. Though perhaps because its the the shoddy use of songs over all this season (mostly just Top 40 crap that's been all over the radio) that I'm more appreciative of something like this, personally.
this is one of the best versions - glee totally butchered this song
No they didn't. There was absolutely nothing wrong with the Glee version
