Lindsay is a queen
Jay and Alex are my precious children
BUT WHY IS NATALIE SO FREAKING UNDERRATED IN THIS PERFORMANCE??????
COMMENTERS SHOW NAT SOME MORE LOVE
Just because you can't hear her doesn't mean she isn't important. I heard a version where she wasn't in it and it sounded really off. All vocal parts are important, so if one is off or not there it doesn't sound right. I know that sopranos especially 2nd sopranos don't get heard often but if they are not there it throws the whole piece off balance.
@@sirena1516 oh my gosh you saw that video too someone else understands you're great
No, I didn't mean that I didn't appreciate Natalie's part here because hers was softer. I was refering to the comment section, how everyone talks about Alex and Jay (and Lindsay, naturally) but not much of Nat. But I guess I was a bit unclear on what I was refering to.
@@musicprincess9747 Yes I saw that video. Sorry I took your post that way, when I saw the comments section saying that they didn't need her for the song it got me mad and sad because I knew how it felt to forgotten in a song.
@@sirena1516 oh okay then. Yeah those comments got me mad too, honestly this is why I made this comment :(
I was listening to this with my headphones earlier and noticed her voice for the first time. Gave me chills! So good!
Beetlejuice hanging out with Sara Berry? It's more likely than you think.
frαnk zhαng - I’m gonna have a new BEST FRIENDDDDDDDD
And Naomi Rodriguez
Ikr?
@@Lotieprotie left
baby alex- i didn't even recognise him at first lol
I love how the male singer on the left gets so into it.
same dude. same
It’s a mood
I think he's beetlejuice
TheFluffyMcCosmo yeah, you’re right. It’s Alex Brightman from ‘Beetlejuice’.
It took me so long to recognize him as Alex Brightman. I wasn't even watching for him, I just legitimately like this song-
Shoutout to the two guys for forcibly taking us THERE
Especially the guy on the right. He was soooooo into it
smol_might fr
alex,Lindsey, Nat,and Jay are just 👌
That's Beetlejuice, Naomi Rodriguez and the cool girl who made the Heart of Stone mv right? wow theyre awesome
Wait really!!?!! That’s so cool
this song is so tremendously underrated
Umm ok
Needs to be on radio stations more often.
Bro, this entire “musical” is super underrated
No this is the most known song from this musical, but the musical itself is underrated
@@milliewilson8016 That still means the song is underrated though, just that 35mm is also underrated
I DARE EVERYONE WATCHING THIS TO REWATCH THIS AND ONLY PAY ATTENTION TO THE TWO GUYS ON THE SIDES AND TRY NOT TO SMILE
The guy on the left looks a bit like Dick or Dom ( the short one, they merge into one person for me)
@@TheClobo2001 That's Alex Brightman from School of Rock... I almost didn't recognize him!
I lost 3 seconds in
I fucking love the guy on the right tbh
I failed immediately.
the way she says "crunch" gets me every time!! i wish they did it more like that in the recording
I KNOW
It actually sounds crunchy
@@thatfloofywolfie722 IT DID
@@thatfloofywolfie722 exactly!
Yeah, that and the "What a Bitch!" line never fails to make me chuckle.
I only just now found out the guy on the left is Alex Brightman. It’s a baby Beetlejuice! X3
Saaame I was so shook lol
Jackie McCann - he looks like Spider-Man Beetlejuice
He looks like Adam
No way! That’s awesome!
oml yeah before i saw that alex brightman was in this i was like "woa eunices pieces spread round the school kinda sounds like beetlejuice owo"
At 4:12 everyone gets so into it, and it makes me feel so GOOD.
Literally my favorite oart
@@Certifiedslow You mean “part” at the end?
Litteraly me in my kitchen, everytime.
Ok, we all know that the main singer is a queen and the two boys are iconic, but can we give some love to the girl with pink dress? Her facial expressions are so cool, her vocals are great, she's just there playing with her hair like a princess, and they way she says "CRUNCH" always gives me chills. She really gets into it
2 years late but Natalie Weiss, everybody!! She’s amazing
the guy on the far right is a WHOLE mood
@Tommy The Turtle Artis oh yeah, Alex Brightman is also an entire mood
@@boo8583 mmhm I know !!
I'm obsessed with Alex Brightman in this video
Where is he?? I kid you not the only reason I’m watching this is coz i thought I heard him in the original recording and was tryna double check
Adison Desmarais oh thank you!!! I feel so dumb I didn’t realise aha
He’s such a baby hereee 😍
@@thiccdrama Tell me about it, I almost didn't recognize him!
I was thinking he looked familiar...
You could say Sara wanted to be prom queen
*berry* badly.
sir pap you commented this on the animated one
ive seen this two times now
Sir, you are a gentleman AND a scholar! The best jokes are the ones that make you smile and groan in horrific pain at the same time!
Eyyyyyy
I hate you too.
That jump at 4:13 had me so into the end, the boys did such a great job!
The mic snatch tho
Alex gets some air doe
Me too, I love their energy
4:43 I love that he crosses himself at the end
Didn't even notice that. XD This act is amazing!
"God save the Queen."
@@riyak.7393 God save the queen...
@@uglebeffus
"Down on your knees before the Queen!"
@@riyak.7393 The queen of high school land!
I can't believe I've never heard this before I'm OBSESSED
Chesca Magee Same here
Emilia Shaw it's from a musical exhibition called 35mm. I highly recommend it.
I just discovered this song 2 days ago and I'm hooked.
It’s all I’ve listened to for three days😂😂
So was Sara
Is this Naomi from 21 Chump Street? She sounds amazing and sounds like her!
It is naomi!
Sean Kelly Oh! Thanks for telling me ^^
That’s what I thought too! I was too lazy to look it up and then forgot! She has a specific quality to her voice that was familiar and I thought she maybe was Naomi.
Perontivine Yep it's her. She's so cool..
I knew she sounded familiar!!
Everybody is vibing to Lindsay nobody noticed Beatlejuice just doing his thing to the left.
This song highlights how important it is for parents to correctly motivate their children and help them understand what’s truly important
It also gives me some interesting ways to kill people...
What
It's so interesting to me that you can change just a couple of words in the father's lines and get something much healthier
Apparently a lot of people deem Sara's father to be the real villain. Sara was being pushed and pushed into being this perfect being by her father - had he not been as piggish as he was, Sara wouldn't have snapped.
He also gets away with his behaviour, whilst Sara is committed to a mental health hospital.
When you put it like that, Sara was a victim as well.
Why hasn't a movie based off this song been made yet?
IKR
That's just a cheerleader horror. There are a ton of those.
I would still watch it
Or at least a short film
@@gangrenousgandalf2102 oh
THE WAY THEY ALL GO FERAL WHEN SINGING THE LAST CHORUS
ART
After listening to this song for the I-don't-even-knowth time, I noticed something at 2:59, when the background singers start naming off the victim's names. They start off at a normal pace but then very slowly sped up the names as went along, almost like when the music when Sara is actually killing the girls speeds up and becomes more intense, weirdly foreshadowing her slippage into insanity. I dunno if this was intentional or not, but it goes to show just how damn good this song is and how much thought was put into it.
wow this would be a cool movie
Yah I totally agree. That or maybe a musical. Tbh I would love the "vote for Sarah" part to be expanded upon. Just has such a catchy sound
God yes
oh shit, it would
It’s actually a musical
@@justsomeone1151 Yeah but unfortunately, this is the entire story. The musical doesn't expand anymore on Sarah, the rest are different characters.
One of the best sung yet minimalisticaly designed performances (I’m not saying it’s badly designed, I like how simple it is with not a ton of choreography)
Guy on left has my vote
Fearful Tiger I just realized that the guy on the left is Alex Brightman!!
thaT'S THE GUY WHO PLAYED BEETLEJUICE IN THE MUSICAL
no wonder he's so extra lmao
HES BETELGEUSE
i may or may not have listened to this song about 70 times in the past 48 hours. nbd.
Abbie MG 9 years later, and I’m doing the same.
Ryann Universe same!
Jolts Animates Triple same
this song has no business going as hard as it does
Sarah was rich
Why didnt her dad like bribe the principal or the students in making her prom queen?
Sophia Villanueva
“Some girls were rational, but Sara was not.”
@Lesbian Dumbass I read this comment as that line came
@@emmalawson7349 tf same
Hey, bribery isn't fair game!
But getting your rivals "out of the way" is :)
He probably would have felt like she didn't "earn it".
aayyee yo the dude on the left was praying at the end XD
It honestly makes sense. I always imagined that that last part is literally them saying "vote Sara Berry for your own good and everyone around you"
Fun fact: He's now received two Tony Award nominated for best actor. He originated the lead in School of Rock and originated the title role in Beetlejuice. 😊
You know huge props for the guy on guitar who is also leading the band it ain’t easy doing more then one thing while playing the guitar let alone leading a whole band
Jay and Alex are epic during the final chorus. This song just keeps getting better.
Emo hair might not have gotten into it as much as Alex but he was serving the entire time
P- Poison
R- Rock *cRunch!*
O- “OH!” Open skull
M- Marinated Remains
Q- Quietly drowning
U- Ur scattered remains
E- Easy winning
E, N- Ending this bloodshed by calling the cops
OMG SHE HIT G#
Not hard if you're trained proper
Okay, not all of us are “TrAiNeD pRoPer”, tAyLoR
@@solentsquared6719 lol yeah but dude... That comment was like a year ago
Not all of us are sopranos-
*cries in alto*
@@thefroglord20 mood
Alex is such a smol boy
I probably wouldn't have known it was him if I didn't know his voice
The smile Alex gets when the crowd laughs at Jay's "what a bitch" is flippin cute, what the heck.
Everything time I watch this/listen to the song I notice something new that makes me fall even more in love with it.
Julie took "her crown", her boyfriend etc. and instead of killing her she decises to kill at least 6 other peeps and doesn't kill her in the end.
Well, some girls are rational. Sara was not
She wanted to spell "Prom queen"
@Caitlin Buensuceso e’s are for the easy way in five minutes tops
Not all the P-R-O-M etc... were the girls names for example “O is what Ann said when Sara bludgeoned in her brains” maybe she could have “N is for nullified the poor 1 leg girl” or something like that I was also thinking of nix but I couldn’t find a way to make it work :/
She was saving the best for last, but Julie called the cops before she could.
Omg I can’t believe I just noticed lol
4:12 I love that part XD
Silvana Felix who doesnt?
Them getting super into it is hilarious
what can lindsay mendez NOT do
Bella S A V E J U S T I N F R O M J A I L
AMEN
mr. sandman
OH GOD XD
@@soggyrats i can't
Fail
The one dislike is sara
INYFanimations and maybe her father
NashLikesNacho,
No, the second one is her father
INYFanimations The 2 dislikes are Sara's parents
Sara's 6 alt accounts
No they are victims of sara berry
How have I only know found this? Those two guys on the sides are my life goals. They're having so much fun
Guy on the left was just jammin’. I love his lil’ sassy stance.
Lindsay's frequent eyebrow raises make this all the better.
Also, 4:14, that jump by the guy in the left side.
Adison Desmarais WAIT WHHAAAAATT... omg that means he’s also Rick from Rick and Morty 😱
Adison Desmarais I know but for some reason I also thought he was Rick from Rick and Morty
Not matter how dark, deep and weird the song can get but everyone laughs at "what a bitch"
This song is soooo underrated it's amazing. Also that guy singing on the left of the stage? *love him*
Alex Brightman! Aka Lawrence Beetlejuice
@@mrshcwtime No I'm talking about Jay A. Johnson lol. I meant like facing out to the crowd, he would be on your left.
@@Lindwyrm6429 oh, right! lmao
Sorry, it's difficult to tell which right or left XD
4:13 I like how everyone’s gettin it when Sara is arrested
the way the dude said ‘what a bitch’ SENDS ME
SING. IT. LINDSAY.
like respect for the people who take the time to realize that all the letters spell "P R O M Q U E E N"
HOLY SHIT
I'm 10 years late but omfg.
4:12 i gotta appreciate that *leap* for the two dudes real quick 😂
I want to see this as a full musical now
Oh it is! I am so blimming late but there is a musical called 35mm: A musical exhibition on UA-cam 😊
i love how beetlejuice (or in other words, Alex) is so getting into it
like he has so much energy and shows it in his singing and moves
no wonder he is a perfect actor
and no wonder he's my idol
I can't believe beetlejuice was in this high school drama
I can’t believe Naomi Rodríguez was in this high school drama
@@solentsquared6719 it was probably a simple act of charity
@@snufkin2245 I dont know, they all look like they're having fun
@@bluebay1031 yes of course 😅 I just made a shitty joke I don't even know why
Petition for them to do this again
we needed a revamped version like, yesterday.
LINDSEYYYYY IS SO UNDERATED WTF SHES AMAZING YET ALL THESE COMMENTERS ARE COMPLETELY IGNORING HER…
I knew it was her!
I was certain that the lead singer was the same person who played Noami in 21 Chump Street! Hell yeah! She has a lovely voice!
Yeeees Lindsay Mendez is amazing! She's also Rose in Dogfight :) and she played Elphaba on Broadway
@@ryanfaure3120 NO BECAUSE DOGFIGHT IS SO GOOD
Jay and Alex left absolutely EVERYTHING on that goddamn stage holy shit
So I understand the musical is based off different pictures for each song ... so far this is the only song I see as interesting I wish I could find the photos each song was based off as well
Queen Devious if you look for productions of it on here, they use the same photos
will olsen, beetlejuice, and two elphabas. what a combination IUDBSVIUSDBIV and i LOVE it
the powerhouses in this song I can’t-
I've listened to this about 50x and the "what a bitch" still gets me xD
I think we found the most underrated musical experience ever
glad to see Alex was just as deliciously extra a decade ago as he is today. :^)
Damn why am I now only seeing this today? February 18th 2018. This is too good.
This video is a perfect example of how this song makes you feel. Its just such a bop that even the people singing it cant help but get I N T O I T. the dudes on either and are just expressing how this whole song feels. Truly an iconic song. Total banger
That’s Beetlejuice on the left haha!
The guys are just vibing
Pov. This song is so good that we are all here at different years.
Amazing how different Alex looked
Oh my god. She sings her HEART OUT. I'm in love
Love this performance! And looks like the guy on the right signs the "O" and "E" of "PROM QUEEN" in American Sign Language!
The way she says Sara Berry at the end when the other music drops out and its just her voice, idk why but I love the way she said it 😫
Okay, yup. This is my favorite version.
On behalf of the people living in Midwestern USA - thank you for sharing this event on UA-cam!
Simply outstanding!
I love the bassist/ orchestra master in the back
I’m very not okay with knowing this is a decade old
Holy crap I was re-watching The Owl House and the amount the Boscha reminds me of Sara is scary
Yall are underrating lindsay and natalie. Like bruh i know yall love beetlejuice so ofcourse you have to only praise alex but cmon lindsay did such an amazing job.
I came here from annapantsu’s cover and I’m OBSESSED!!
IVE HEARD THIS SONG A MILLION TIMES AND IVE JUST UNDERSTOOD SHE MURDERED THEM ALL FJEOSUWNWKWJ
_How?_ It literally says that?
The guy on the right was KILLING IT and the girl in the pink dress SLAYED
Dude! Alex Brightman is just a baby here! He's so smol
Alex is popping off
jesus, lindsay is gorgeous
yes omg
The plot of Macbeth, high school AU
OMG ITS TOO ACCURATE
Gmfjfjfjodhxjx
Time to hyper focus on this song again!
This song is pretty... *Killer*
this song is so underrated 👏🏽
This is amazing! Also, look at baby Natalie Weiss, the Queen of Riffing.
i would love a full musical or movie musical based on this song alone ─ maybe with this song/parts of this song as the finale?
Omg, baby beetlejuice is so cute
i fucking LOVE JAY AND ALEX HOLY SHIT GEDDIT BOYS GE D D IT >:D
damn they popped off
i fully believe that Alex Brightman was a gift from god
4:12 they MUST do a re-recording of this so we can get this high note in there OH MY GOD
I can't believe its been 8 years and not ONE dislike! Well done!❤
One love the fact ur slytherin ;3 i feel like tht and im in ravenclaw but otherwise someone clicked a dislike and i bet they were sara berry :D
You jinxed it!
1:18 The head movement of the guy on the right is everything.
Ever since I heard it, I can't get enough of this song.
WTF THEY ARE ACTUALLY SO TALENTED!!!!! THOSE NOTES ARE HIGHER THAN MY IQ ISTG
four of my favorite performers and my favorite composer in contemporary musical theatre. best combination ever.
the guy on the right just exudes sassy energy
