what the hell do you mean stupid and confusing do you know how hard they worked on that show and you just go head and judge wow Man you suck god dam you
Did you not see the episode? This dance was made by Cheryl and Toni. Of course, the dance they made is oversexualized but the music, approved by Kevin and their principal (I assume) is under-sexualized

They could've literally just used "Let your mommy fix you a snack *insert lyrics* dirty dancing with the quarterbacks" and they would've had a more functional product using even less work than what little they had to do coming up with these abominations they call lyrics.
@@sarvente4145 Alright then. To prove you wrong, here's the verse we're talking about in full: If you lack the balls (1) You can go play doll (1) Let your mommy fix you a snack (2) (Woah) Or you could come smoke (3) Pound some rum and coke (3) In my Porsche with the quarterbacks (2) In case you missed the entire reply thread, we're specifically talking about the (2) rhyme scheme, literally the only one in that entire verse without any explicit references to drugs or sexual organs.
If you call yourself a Heather's fan but memorised and prefer this version you are not a Heather's fan. I'm really sorry. Edit: I really do be gate keeping tho huh? Anyways- you are aloud to have your own opinion! I was just salty when I wrote this because all my friends watched Riverdale and I couldn't
Coming from someone who didn't know _either_ version until recently being told about Heathers by a musical friend (and didn't watch Riverdale in the first place) I'm just going to settle for "one is a well crafted stage production that had way more put into it because that was the point, while the other is a made-for-tv recreation tribute on a tighter schedule with different focus so *of course* it's going to be technically worse but I'm glad it exists, both for it's own show and to raise awareness in the original." Take it for what it is, folks. You'll get a lot more Riverdale watchers interested in the classic with positivity over negativity any day.
Lola Birke okay kiddo, don’t get all butt hurt I said something bad about the show. Knowing the people that watch this garbage fire, I can guess you don’t even know what heathers is, and can’t tell that this... (sorry) isn’t good
So they censor the song, yet the dancing is even dirtier than the original... *logic!* Edit: also the music bit before the lyrics makes my ears bleed, it’s horrible. It’s sad though cuz most of these actors can sing well but they were autotuned to death (maybe with the exception of Cheryl and Kevin)
It would rhyme and apparently balls is too edgy of a thing to say so censorship basically RIVERDALE: censors balls ALSO RIVERDALE: shows full lesbian sex drug usage and murder/suicide every other second
Rebecca Rebecca chill I’m gay it’s just that gay sex is more taboo somehow still in this stupid society, the point sadly is that it’s being risky by doing something taboo which should not be a taboo but that’s a Pandora’s box for another day.
I mean, the musical had actual emotion in it, the singing here sounds so lifeless and dull. Also, why did they change the lyrics? They not only changed the lyrics that didn't need censoring, but they also made it dirtier than the original, which resulted in it just sound really awkward.
༄ ᴍɪʟʟs ༄ well I respect that you have an opinion but it is fundamentally wrong. The entire song is flat and off key, the pg lyrics are awful and too cringe to even deserve to be in the same universe as the original and they cut out the best and most iconic lines of the song. The ‘singers’ if you can even call them that, couldn’t sing for absolute shit and the harmonies went poof. All the best and most interesting parts of the song were completely ruined by Riverdale. I wouldn’t usually get so worked up over someone’s opinion of I didn’t agree, but I can’t stand to read something so stupid and distasteful and not correct it. In conclusion, Heathers was, is and always will be far superior to Riverdale in every way possible. If you think otherwise, you are a complete idiot and deserve some drain cleaner in your morning coffee.
I agree they couldve just made it snack And then instead of changing it football team to rhyme the ice cream they shouldnt have changed both.. fix you a snack and with the quarterback ( is that the spelling. Quarterback??? Idk ) it still rhymes.
This just makes me sad. Like the original is so good and then there’s just this. I saw another comment that said they were auto tuned to death which is so true and credit to whoever said that since they really have been abused with auto tune. It could have been good if they were actually aloud to have the uncensored version.
Ok I’m gonna do an honest review of this video: -Backstory: I saw this episode on Riverdale first and, after seeing the backlash, decided to watch the bootleg musical and listen to the soundtrack(I’m loving Heathers btw). I also have been a theatre kid for 3-4 years but never really watched musicals for some reason until recently -Pros: Cheryl’s high note at the end I felt was pretty decent, SOME of the lyric changes fit okay (I’m assuming they did those to keep the show rated PG-13 I guess?), and the choreography was pretty decent besides the twerking lol. -Cons: 1.Why did they have to cut the pre-song talk short? 2. Shouldn’t Betty be McNamara and Veronica be Duke? It would seem to fit their character traits better imo 3. dOoRKnoB 4. The auto tune is overbearing in some parts. I get that they’re not supposed to be professional singers, but being such a big show shouldn’t they have editors that can fix that without making them sound like robots? 5. Their singing doesn’t match up with their mouths and it is aNOYING ME TO NO END 6. Their singing is also a LOT lower than in the original and at some parts it sorta sounds like a completely different song because of it 7. I’m sorry but...Toni looks like she’s trying a bit too hard 8. The whip and flip sounds are WAYYYY too much and kinda take away from the singing going on NOTE: This is just my opinion and you certainly do not have to agree with me on this at all. I was just sharing my unique perspective. As you can probably tell, I think the original Heathers “Candy Store” is far superior to the one in Riverdale, even if I saw the Riverdale one first. I’m glad I was led to listen to Heathers through Riverdale though!
Thank you!!! I like when people give real, educated reviews. I agree with the riff part, it wasn't THAT horrible, but it was nowhere near the OG. Also the one thing I don't get is the fact that they used the official high school lyrics but for some reason they also had them shaking their asses? Like, the dancing and the lyrics don't match up. Either do the official version with this choreography, or use the high school version and make the dancing appropriate. (I don't get why they used the high school version on a show where there's already drugs, sex and swearing anyway, what's the logic?) Edit: Another pro is the costumes! Cheryl's is divine, I actually like it better than some of the real Chandler costumes. Although they could have made Betty's a bit more green. Maybe it's the lighting but it looks black, not green like it should be.
I agree, I hate how selectively censored Riverdale is. Also my problem is that I can sit and come up with alternative lines that are a way better fit to the song. I just don’t think they put time into this.
I completely agree, but they didn't even put in the effort to change the words themselves. That's actually the Jr. version that's used for high school productions so that they don't have to pay for the rights. They essentially took the cheap route all the way around and didn't even have anything good to show for it in the end.
Literally me just crying about the lyrics being changed but yet Cheryl's choreography is what makes me keep watching this XD it's just seems like a good choreography for Heathers
lidia cusano Make me do it😂 yo this is some type of social media sis you’re acting just like the crazy fan that wants to eliminate all hate. If I think they ruined the musical I have my opinion cause they actually did. The only decent song was beautiful
can we all just agree that it’s sad some riverdale fans will actually see this as good rather than not knowing the real heather chandler and her amazing talent i love cheryl and toni but just why
I'm a big Riverdale fan, and I've seen a production of Heathers the Musical. I like this version of Candy Store. I don't mind the changed lyrics, and I think they're all really good singers. I honestly think most of the hate for this version comes from fans of the musical who think it's not as good. I think we should stop comparing it, and start liking it for what it is on its own. In other words, less comparing, more liking. Side note, the only thing I don't like about this version is Betty being one of the Heathers. I think she should be Veronica since I think it matches her character more. Or at the very least, switch it so she's Heather McNamara and Veronica is Heather Duke. Makes sense since McNamara is the "nice" Heather, and Duke is the one who steps up after Chandler dies. I could see Veronica stepping up the same way if Cheryl dies.
@@jessxx5873 im not here to defend heathers cause we all know nothing can beat that but I honestly thought this was getting more hate then it deserved so I came to check it out and I have never been so scared in my life. I do not believe anyone can listen to this and think its good, you like the show, not the song (it deserves all the hate it gets)
Taryn Good the original was worse in my opinion so if you don’t like this go watch the original your wasting your time to give them more views and more money.
Well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw You had me in the first half ,not gonna lie. I honestly think this is not that bad, but STILL not great. It doesn't have the same punch like the original and they made sound kinda lame with the changed lyrics.
The “I like” is too soft. In the musical, it has more emphasis on that part. This is more a a smooth easy going “I like” while in the musical it is more sharp and loud. Sorry, it’s just my preference. And I’m a huge nerd for musical theater so I just noticed that.
Same, whenever I belt this song out, I *scream* “I LIKE *looking hot, buying stuff they cannot* I LIKE *drinking hard, maxing dad’s credit card* I LIKE *skipping gym, scaring her, screwing him* I LIKE *killer clothes, KICKING NERDS IN THE NOSE!* ”
@@nothanks7189 My favourite part was always from "if you lack the balls" to the end of first refrain. The thing they did to it here removed all the snap it had :/
People after watching the original heathers: That was lovely and hilarious. Original heathers after watching river dale: We should have never done that play.
Came here from the ACTUAL Candy Store, and CHRIST this is horrid compared to the original. Honestly. Like, I can do better than this, and be singing the original. The original is a masterpiece. This is a disgrace.

Ok I’m gonna do an honest review of this video:
-Backstory: I saw this episode on Riverdale first and, after seeing the backlash, decided to watch the bootleg musical and listen to the soundtrack(I’m loving Heathers btw). I also have been a theatre kid for 3-4 years but never really watched musicals for some reason until recently
-Pros: Cheryl’s high note at the end I felt was pretty decent, SOME of the lyric changes fit okay (I’m assuming they did those to keep the show rated PG-13 I guess?), and the choreography was pretty decent besides the twerking lol.
-Cons:
1.Why did they have to cut the pre-song talk short?
2. Shouldn’t Betty be McNamara and Veronica be Duke? It would seem to fit their character traits better imo
3. dOoRKnoB
4. The auto tune is overbearing in some parts. I get that they’re not supposed to be professional singers, but being such a big show shouldn’t they have editors that can fix that without making them sound like robots?
5. Their singing doesn’t match up with their mouths and it is aNOYING ME TO NO END
6. Their singing is also a LOT lower than in the original and at some parts it sorta sounds like a completely different song because of it
7. I’m sorry but...Toni looks like she’s trying a bit too hard
8. The whip and flip sounds are WAYYYY too much and kinda take away from the singing going on
NOTE: This is just my opinion and you certainly do not have to agree with me on this at all. I was just sharing my unique perspective. As you can probably tell, I think the original Heathers “Candy Store” is far superior to the one in Riverdale, even if I saw the Riverdale one first. I’m glad I was led to listen to Heathers through Riverdale though!
Thank you!!! I like when people give real, educated reviews.
I agree with the riff part, it wasn't THAT horrible, but it was nowhere near the OG. Also the one thing I don't get is the fact that they used the official high school lyrics but for some reason they also had them shaking their asses? Like, the dancing and the lyrics don't match up. Either do the official version with this choreography, or use the high school version and make the dancing appropriate. (I don't get why they used the high school version on a show where there's already drugs, sex and swearing anyway, what's the logic?)
Edit: Another pro is the costumes! Cheryl's is divine, I actually like it better than some of the real Chandler costumes. Although they could have made Betty's a bit more green. Maybe it's the lighting but it looks black, not green like it should be.
For number 5, that could’ve been the person who screen recorded this fault.
I agree, I hate how selectively censored Riverdale is. Also my problem is that I can sit and come up with alternative lines that are a way better fit to the song. I just don’t think they put time into this.
Also, WHY did they change it to “let ur mommy fix you ice cream”????? A snack was just fine and wasn’t jarring as hec
I completely agree, but they didn't even put in the effort to change the words themselves. That's actually the Jr. version that's used for high school productions so that they don't have to pay for the rights. They essentially took the cheap route all the way around and didn't even have anything good to show for it in the end.
What annoys me the most is that they didn't even bother trying to lip sync-
They tried... they failed horribly.
There was attempt but...it ended horribly
why do people type like this-
RIGHHTTTT CMON NOW
Literally me just crying about the lyrics being changed but yet Cheryl's choreography is what makes me keep watching this XD it's just seems like a good choreography for Heathers
Take a shot every time a swooshing noise is made
can u try not to murder anyone? thanks

It truly is
Mmm no ahre for me not jajaj
Yep
I can't believe they even had the audacity to put it in the show
I feel bad for riverdale fans thinking this song is actually "good"
Ooop yeah UnUz
I think its good👉👈
@@a1ixah745 watch the original
@@mari6570 i did the original is wayy better but i still think this one is kinda good
@Emma Lindelow 🤷♀️
Honestly the fact they did the censored version for a high school play is probably one of the most realistic things Riverdale has done
But they don't censor "bitch and moan"
@@Sophiepotter2022They sexualized the choreo too.
"SHUT UP TONI"
me: Yes, PLEASE do.
Ikr!
at least put a cringe alert
I was laughing when she said that
pls no this isn’t a comment that is upset about how they completely destroyed candy store why
@@smirkingrrevenge When I quoted what she said I meant it in a way that, my ears are bleeding why does this remake even exist- ;-;
she really threw it back on "dOoRkNob"
Yasss toni cheryl betty and Veronica are queens!
@@jerseyscott2347 I don't think it's what they were thinking about
whoosh
@@jerseyscott2347 that is not what they were going for
She did
"If u lack the juice, go play duck duck goose. Let your mommy fix u ice cream!". Like sis...just no
0:29
“You gotTa pRoVe yOuR nOt a dOOr kNOb aNyMore” 😂
1:42 Betty and Veronica's reaction to the "SHUT UP TONI!!" is gold!
Rissa Black ACTUALLY THOOOO
@@ana-8785 actually tho.. What? Lol
Rissa Black Basically I was just agreeing to the fact that their faces are gold😂
@@ana-8785 ohh lol yeah i missed that
That’s me to the whole episode
LMAO MY FRIEND FOUND OUT I HAVE A THING FOR MUSICAL THEATRE AND SHE SENT ME THIS💀
Un-friend them. Lol
Don’t take this seriously
LMAO-
WHY IS THAT SO FUNNY LMAO
Omg no
I am so sorry
How to ruin a magnificent musical in 2 minutes.
How to ruin mood in 2 seconds get away from here NOW if u gonna hate
lidia cusano Make me do it😂 yo this is some type of social media sis you’re acting just like the crazy fan that wants to eliminate all hate. If I think they ruined the musical I have my opinion cause they actually did. The only decent song was beautiful
Ikr
Millie H Someone really fire their choreographer..
@@KarlaLopez-qi9yd yeah the musical is great but this...😬😬
Cheryl got casted as Heather and now she thinks she IS Heather.
As a theater kid I’m offended, they didn’t even try with this one
as a heathers musical fan, i’m deeply hurt that riverdale even exists at this point
they ruined candy store lmao
@@glamrockfazcock5440 honestly
Ikr
I’m gonna be sad if everyone only knows this from riverdale and not heathers
Captain Avitute I’M HERE FROM HEATHERS AYYY
Don’t worry, I’m here from the musical
This actually would’ve been decently good if they included the harmonies..
WHY DOES THIS SOUND LIKE KIDS BOP 😭😭😭
What the hell did I just watch...
This is an insult to the original heathers....
Well, Hamilton has spoken
Eva Haloftis it is. No one can tell me it isn’t
María RB IKR XD
Pooja Dayaratna,
Omg, Riverdale better not bring Hamilton in- ISTFG IF THEY HURT HAMILTON I WILL CRY
Love APHUkeFrance O-o
They really did Heathers dirty 😔
Cry
Rawr XD ikr
They did better than the heathers in my opinion
xox Shaonna xox is you good?
Jillian Wishart yes and it’s my opinion so don’t comment on it cause you can’t change it no matter what.
can we all just agree that it’s sad some riverdale fans will actually see this as good rather than not knowing the real heather chandler and her amazing talent
i love cheryl and toni
but just
why
Don't insult cheryl and toni, more like the fucking riverdale staff
I’m flattered
@@H.Z.C. I'm sorry for this monstrosity, my queen.
I'm a big Riverdale fan, and I've seen a production of Heathers the Musical. I like this version of Candy Store. I don't mind the changed lyrics, and I think they're all really good singers. I honestly think most of the hate for this version comes from fans of the musical who think it's not as good. I think we should stop comparing it, and start liking it for what it is on its own. In other words, less comparing, more liking. Side note, the only thing I don't like about this version is Betty being one of the Heathers. I think she should be Veronica since I think it matches her character more. Or at the very least, switch it so she's Heather McNamara and Veronica is Heather Duke. Makes sense since McNamara is the "nice" Heather, and Duke is the one who steps up after Chandler dies. I could see Veronica stepping up the same way if Cheryl dies.
Well this ain’t about them 😂😂😂
"Are we gonna have a problem?"
yes we are- stop
Kid: mommy, can we go see heathers?
Mom: we have heathers at home
Heathers at home:...
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
DoOrKnOb
STOPPP
Kid: I hate you mommy
I still liked Cheryl’s choreography better😂
Same
Me too
Exactly!
No
Yep same
No one:
Absolutly no one:
Toni's and Cheryl's hair and legs: *SwoOoOOOOoOsH*
"Time for you to prove you're not a doorknob anymore!!" *throws it back agressively*
I don’t watch riverdale, why do they try to ruin musicals 😂😂 like what is even the context of this
Lara Bertani ikr like bruh XD

@@oskrramosqwwdbsml480 mira nada más ese autocorrector, uuuffff 😔👌🏻
So... Why r u in here?
I don't get it!
Cheryl's choreo was better 😂
heathers is based around a high school not a strip club. those are “teenagers” theyre sexualizing
To this day this physically hurts my soul
why?
@@anayaguyton420 la música es de heathers

“Are we gonna have a problem?” 🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶💃🕺💃
Honesty this was painful to watch I hate Riverdale but I love Heathers
乁 ̆ o ̆ ㄏJustEmily then why you here bitcj
@@jessxx5873 theatre kids come here to see how bad it is
@@jessxx5873 im not here to defend heathers cause we all know nothing can beat that but I honestly thought this was getting more hate then it deserved so I came to check it out and I have never been so scared in my life. I do not believe anyone can listen to this and think its good, you like the show, not the song (it deserves all the hate it gets)
Tori is hot tho 😳😳😳 tho I ain’t a fan of Heathers or Riverdale
Mynx I think it’s good🤷🏻♀️
This is so stupid but I can’t stop watching HELP

Ok.. But like... Cheryl’s kick at the beginning was higher than my grades 😂
The only good thing about this.
It is what it is
Girl you have me dying
Literally kicked an imaginary ball through the stratosphere
the sound effects💀💀💀
Betty and Veronica's faces when Cheryl said
"SHUT UP TONI!!"
😂😂
the “end up like her” kinda made me mad because it wasn’t the same notes as the original and I was really looking forward to it lol
No one seems to appreciate Cheryl being able to make a good choreography... Just like in the dance battle with Veronica
In the dance battle Veronica and Cheryl were doing the same thing at the end yet Veronica did better?
How can I appreciate someone's choreo that's dirtier than the *original* *song*
@@taryngood2273 at least it's good choreo and the original song was dirtier
Taryn Good the original was worse in my opinion so if you don’t like this go watch the original your wasting your time to give them more views and more money.
@@listening2loversrock435 The original was great! Why don't you like it?
i love how they cant hit the note on "end up like her"
Can we talk about how Midge is one of the cheerleaders in the back
Iconic
She’s a dead girl walking 😉
That's not her
That’s not her
I'M IcOnIc , No YoU’rE nOt
You know this is quite good...
To torment people in hell.
Lmao
😂
Ooh I should show this to my brother in repeat then 😀
Well, fuck me gently with a chainsaw
You had me in the first half ,not gonna lie.
I honestly think this is not that bad, but STILL not great. It doesn't have the same punch like the original and they made sound kinda lame with the changed lyrics.
I'm hell then idfc bish
The “I like” is too soft. In the musical, it has more emphasis on that part. This is more a a smooth easy going “I like” while in the musical it is more sharp and loud. Sorry, it’s just my preference. And I’m a huge nerd for musical theater so I just noticed that.
Addison! Jane Black THATS what you’re gonna complain about from this WHOOOOLLLEEE train wreck 😂😂
mshrm Yeah I know 😂
thats only a small part of the problem here
Same, whenever I belt this song out, I *scream* “I LIKE *looking hot, buying stuff they cannot* I LIKE *drinking hard, maxing dad’s credit card* I LIKE *skipping gym, scaring her, screwing him* I LIKE *killer clothes, KICKING NERDS IN THE NOSE!* ”
It’s kinda realistic tho, I agree with you but they’re high schoolers performing a musical..so idk.
“If you lack the juice go play play duck duck goose. Let your mommy fix you ice cream” I’m crying why’d they have to ruin it
1:08 that girl next to toni is dancing the right moves but at the wrong time. Like i know they practice this. Why is she messing up so damn much
Joe Rodriguez right you can’t say that nobody noticed it while they were filming and said something so they should have reshot it
I didn't notice but now it's even harder to watch.
No. No. No. No. No. No. No.
THIS MADE ME CRY! THEY MISSED OUT SOME OF THE BEST LYRICS
You mean all the the original lyrics
@@SoloPlayerAdventues Maybe they are referring to the " LISTEN UP BI-ATCH" part in my opinion best part.
@@nothanks7189 My favourite part was always from "if you lack the balls" to the end of first refrain. The thing they did to it here removed all the snap it had :/
One of my fave lines in the original was "so listen up, byotch!" Idk, it just had a nice ring to it
People after watching the original heathers: That was lovely and hilarious.
Original heathers after watching river dale: We should have never done that play.
Madelaine with singing classes would be a great soprano and very talented singer
Me: does anyone have eye bleach?
JD: we are all gonna need it
@JillianMation *happy heather chandler noises* 💀
JD please blow up this high school
this is insultingly bad.
Music producer: so how much autotune do you want?
Riverdale directors: *yes*
Me to Riverdale Heathers: *SHUT UP HEATHER!!*
no one:
cheryl: “shut up toni”
“step into my candEY STOOORREEEE”
Came here from the ACTUAL Candy Store, and CHRIST this is horrid compared to the original. Honestly. Like, I can do better than this, and be singing the original. The original is a masterpiece. This is a disgrace.
@Gary Mark it is bad wheres the bomb now
@Gary Mark You're absolutely right Gary! It's worse!
@Gary Mark you have bad taste
and that’s ok!
1:22 what the actual hell was that. Sounds like Siri..
lmfao accurate
That was the enormous quantity of autotune they used
😂
LMAO
Me: Can we get candy store?
Mom: We have candy store at home
