Why tf is he so damn creative???? I mean damn his videos are more creative than some TV shows damn it. I can't wait for the day when he wins a Grammy....Oscar or something man 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥.
i know im just now starting to learn about this hahaha like spice girls two made one i think thats what its called is about sex hahahaha i didn't know that when i was a kid hehehe

I've listened to a few tracks off of Straight Outta Oz... and I really like, and respect, the story being told here. The struggle and the price of fame. It's incredibly relateable poignant, and catchy :-) Fave tracks so far are "Dumb" and "Expensive"
I feel like this version isn't the one we've seen or heard in the album/video album ? Because Perez says Loz Angeles instead of Oz Angeles and he also doesn't say "How much can you flaunt it?"
Why are they not credited? They do deserve it! And I know Todrick knows it as well, he loves them all! And everyone loves Todrick! (Glad I know them and don't have to search hours for eg. Vonzell's beautiful voice)
I just love the fact that Grace Helbig is looking so fierce in this video, very rare sight indeed. Of course, the song itself is absolutely awesome - I'd say it's my favorite if it weren't so hard to pick one :P
I don't think she was talking about the color green in general I think she was talking about that silver corset with the green splotches in particular. Not the color itself. That corset DID look like there was fungus growing on it.
todrick please mention the girl that sings this! I can't find any featuring names apart from perez hilton but the girl is really talented and I wanna see if she has more music :)
Is this one edited? Of course this one is longer, but there are also more background vocals in the original one and didn't Perez say "Citizens of Oz Angeles" (instead of "Los(z) Angeles") in the beginning of the original one?
When you have watched this a hundred times and just now realize that Shanice Williams from The Wiz Live is the main singer on the track. Get it girl!!! Thank you Todrick for bringing her on to this project!
Oh my god I just had an amazeballs idea. Todrick if you ever read this I am in love with your work but I was wondering what if you did a collab with Tyler Oakley because you both are so great and creative. Thx ilysm. 👍👌💙🍭🐼
a) it's an extended version (the second verse has probably been added afterwards, which explains why you can't hear Perez : in the live versions of Green, however, you hear his voice), lowered the bass, and made solo singers more prominent ; b) Vonzell can be heard in the first verse, and Shanice Williams in the second verse ; c) I listened many times to be sure, and he says Loz Angeles ^^ You're welcome ;)
He says "Oz Angeles" in the original visual album version. I've probably watched it about 50 times :P And it's also missing the guitar in the beginning like at 0:20.
This was one of my favorite songs and outfit designs in the live show. This video is amazing, but the outfits are nothing compared to the stage version.
It is different. There is a second verse that didn't appeared in the 57 minutes video (Green is a great disease, etc.), plus I think Vonzell is the only one to sing the first verse, and the other singer (I think her name is Shanice Williams) sings the second.
In fact, there are two proeminent voices, if you listen well. In the first verse, you hear Vonzell's voice more distinctly, then it shifts to Shanice William's for the second verse. Unless I'm wrong, which is probable ^^
I really think the original one with the choir-esquire vocals has a lot more power to it. It feels awkward hearing her solo this, especially during the second verse.

I was so expecting to see Glozell Green in this portion! The main singers voice here is GORGEOUSSSSS OH MY GAY!
IKR
why i cannot see glozell??
That is the point, I was just saying I thought she would be in this video since her last name is Green. But she WAS in Water Guns in Green.
+Martin Ng I saw her
That sounds a lot like Vonzell Solomon, she's in a lot of Todrick's stuff and she's great :P
I just heard this played in a goodwill the other day. It was like an out of body experience
Idk why, but the way he looks at the stage from the crowd is so precious. I just want to protect the precious with my life.
I wish they'd play his music on the radio
This feels like Mrs Potato Head grown up and taking on even bigger things.
Yesss
I was just thinking that
such a dark meaning hidden in a catchy song.
i love it.
0:18 i see Grace and Chester👀
omg same
Did you only just notice?
I was about to comment that!
YES
so true like yaass grace slays
This is the most underrated song in the whole show.

My fav are papi, over the rainbow and water gun😍😍💙
Coming back to this several years later and I only just noticed Grace Helbig is in it
If you've never heard this live I don't know what to tell you. It was everything.
I feel like this version isn't the one we've seen or heard in the album/video album ? Because Perez says Loz Angeles instead of Oz Angeles and he also doesn't say "How much can you flaunt it?"
I always thought he said Oz in the video album
the song isnt this long in the visual either
Also the whole beginning of this song in the visual album one has more backup vocals.
1:30 he says “How much can you flaunt it” it’s just lower because this is the studio audio
I can't stop listening to this song.........Todrick your songs are too good!
So TRUE
I LITERALLY LOVE THIS
Why are they not credited? They do deserve it! And I know Todrick knows it as well, he loves them all! And everyone loves Todrick! (Glad I know them and don't have to search hours for eg. Vonzell's beautiful voice)
They're all credited in the full Straight out of Oz video.
THANK YOU
The irony of him writing this and become the exact type of person he was talking about
I just love the fact that Grace Helbig is looking so fierce in this video, very rare sight indeed. Of course, the song itself is absolutely awesome - I'd say it's my favorite if it weren't so hard to pick one :P
this is my favourite song from it
Same!! ^-^
Put these on Spotify or ITunes man
it's on itunes.
it's on itunes.
It's on Spotify
the album is on spotify!! :)
not all the songs are on Spotify though. it's missing low and black and white.
This song goes hard 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Michelle Visage won't like this
yasssssss

I don't think she was talking about the color green in general I think she was talking about that silver corset with the green splotches in particular. Not the color itself. That corset DID look like there was fungus growing on it.
Patrick O'Brien lmao no she said it herself she doesnt like the color green.
+Patrick O'Brien she doesn't like the color green bro😂😂

i like more the first sound mixing of this song.
even if this version sounds more clean.
and yes,it's brilliant.
The amount of time Todrick has put into this project, has not deserved it's recognition.
Oh my God, this is BOP! 😍
I could SO see this as a BROADWAY show!!!
Is this one edited? Of course this one is longer, but there are also more background vocals in the original one and didn't Perez say "Citizens of Oz Angeles" (instead of "Los(z) Angeles") in the beginning of the original one?
I noticed the same thing.
Yea the actual full song is this version. The other version (in the visual album) wasn't even 2 minutes long
and theres only one person singing, the beat is different, and he doesn't repeat how much can you flaunt it.
I know. It sounds unfinished? Like for instance it's missing the guitar "beat" at 0:20 which I feel is important for the song.
Yeah I'm not really sure either, because this one sounds more like a demo version, like it's unfinished..
BRILLIANT
GRACEEEE
Todrick face looks so flawless in this... who am I kidding he always looks flawless
this is such an upbeat song with a dark and twisted meaning underneath it.
i love it!
LITERALLY ALL OF MY QUEENS.
Am I the only one who immediately thought "Slytherin Anthem" after hearing this?
OMG AMENNNNNN
Omg love you Hogwarts is the Best Place
Hahahaha
I can't unseen it
Proud to be a slytherin
A confused Griffindor agreeing with u
This deserves billions
Love it...!!!
When you have watched this a hundred times and just now realize that Shanice Williams from The Wiz Live is the main singer on the track. Get it girl!!! Thank you Todrick for bringing her on to this project!
HOW SHIT I LOVE THIS MORE THAN ANYTHING 😍😍😍😍 TODRICK IS SO FUCKING AMAZING AND TALENTED
THIS IS SUCH AN UNDERSTATED SONG OMFG
Let me just say that vonzell Voice is strong in this song. I love it. very creative
the performers look like theyre having so much fun im green with envy
Did you do something to enhance the sound? Sounds different than iTunes version. Sound great.
Grace is absolutely stunning in this. Like honestly
Michelle Visage disliked this song
hahahah!!
Being that green is my favourite colour, I freeeeeeeaking want to play this leaving the airport in a few weeks!!!!! I LOVE IT

Honey just stop its just to much to handle!! 👏👏 You are so talented!
GRACE AND CHESTER MY CHILDREN YAY AND TODRICK YAY
This is my favorite song on the album
why does this sound different? and who sings it? and perez says Los Angeles instead of Oz?
And at 1:30 you can barely hear Perez... is almost sounds like one of the audio tracks in missing.
a) it's an extended version (the second verse has probably been added afterwards, which explains why you can't hear Perez : in the live versions of Green, however, you hear his voice), lowered the bass, and made solo singers more prominent ;
b) Vonzell can be heard in the first verse, and Shanice Williams in the second verse ;
c) I listened many times to be sure, and he says Loz Angeles ^^
You're welcome ;)
He says "Oz Angeles" in the original visual album version. I've probably watched it about 50 times :P And it's also missing the guitar in the beginning like at 0:20.
Wow this song is pretty good
is Shanice Williams in this ?
shes singing :)
he once helped my little apt complex he has such a big heart
Did I just see Cody saintgnue?????
yaaas!!omggg
Oh! She went there! Kudos!
This was one of my favorite songs and outfit designs in the live show. This video is amazing, but the outfits are nothing compared to the stage version.
I feel like tonight at the 2019 VMAs we got to see Todrick in the audience and on the stage side of that Green. And I'm here for it.
Peep GRACE HELBIG!!!!
uploaded on my birthday. best present by far
This version sounds different to me. Anyone else?
omg I thought I was the only one! :o

He is just too good. Damn. 😍😭
One time I was sick and I was binge watching todricks vids and I threw up during this one and my vomit was green #aesthetic #onbrand
GRAAAACCEEEEE
did anyone else notice Grace and Chester?
omg yes!
lol me i was looking in the comments if anyone else did as well
OMG one of the best on his album
Just realized grace helbig and chester see are in here
this is so incredibly smart. so good.
Todrick just made a song about a color.
Кιуσмι νιятυσѕσ it's about money not a color
Кιуσмι νιятυσѕσ and it slayed
I can`t stop watching this
I was expecting to see Glozell for sum reason lol
I WAS TOO
Naw, but she makes a brief cameo in another Straight Outta Oz sequence - Water Guns (ft. Jordin Sparks)
Because of the green
this song deserves an award
i don't it was her but there was someone who kinda looked like sierra boggess in the video
I know exactly who you mean though I highly doubt it was her.
OML I THOUGHT THAT TOO
Finally!!!! I love this song!!!
For you Michelle Visage
this has gotta be downloadable
This one is different from the original?
This one is an extended version 😊
It's also made one voice much more prominent in my opinion and the bass is reduced I think
girlytalk64 Ikr, it's not just extended. It's just... different.
In fact, there are two proeminent voices, if you listen well. In the first verse, you hear Vonzell's voice more distinctly, then it shifts to Shanice William's for the second verse. Unless I'm wrong, which is probable ^^
I'm going to his concert in Atlanta tonight and I'm so excited
Green isn't a creative color.
DHMIS!!!! I thought the same. lol
OMG THE REFERENCE GAME
the reference game is strong with this one.
DHMIS is such an amazing vido, but somehow it gives my friends nightmares or something.... I don't understand them
I know! I've watched it a hundred times now and I've memorized it.
I love all the songs individually.........But when they all came together and form a story it's just like 😍😍😍😍😍
Green still isn't a creative color.
C'mon Michelle Visage!
+don't ask don't pastel lol
I don't have enough thumbs up for this
Let's never be creative again.
Danielle Balouise at least yellow guy got to be green in the end
My fave song off the album by far
Glozell should've been in this lol
Smiley Reilly but she was in water guns.
this needs more views its such a jam
I really think the original one with the choir-esquire vocals has a lot more power to it. It feels awkward hearing her solo this, especially during the second verse.
agreed!
Todrick! you brillaint person!
*Michelle Visage has left the chat*
this song gives me the chills
