- Richard Suart's re-written and very topical Little List from The Mikado - not to be missed!
From Jeremy Clarkson to Jeremy Corbyn, watch Richard Suart list his 2015 candidates for the Lord High Executioner's chop, filmed at ENO's current production of Gilbert and Sullivan's The Mikado.
About The Mikado:
Nanki-Poo loves Yum-Yum. But Ko-Ko's after his head... Jonathan Miller's much-loved production of Gilbert and Sullivan's farce The Mikado is full of wit, charm and catchy tunes.
The Mikado live at the London Coliseum from 28 October - 30 November 2019. Tickets from £10* - book yours today: www.eno.org/mikado

The Mikado was written as a parody of British institutions in the 19th century, disguised at the time by putting it in Japan. This is a light hearted tribute made relevant to the 21st century.
Some things never change!
My wife asked me why I kept listening to the same song over and over again...until I pointed out that the words were different each time. This one is the best.
I’ve seen several productions and all are very funny - but the original is the best. The lefy Miller has ruined a great G&S opera
Shame they cut out the 2017 one.
You should also listen to this version: "Family Guy - Musical number: I've got a little list" 😁
You can always get an interesting feel of a time and place by observing what they put into their I've Got a Little List song.
For a song that's 130 years old, it's very modern, lol
Alex Goldhill, Yeah you listen to the old versions you get a sense of the times.
There's a long tradition with this song in particular to ditch the old lyrics, which were of there time and make no sense to the modern audience, and do exactly what WSG did, comment on what happened. It started, as far as I can tell, with Robert Armin, the inventor of the pun, the second wave of comedy, who was Shakespeare's chief clown in the 1600s, and WSG simply picked up on that, straight out of the pantomime - whence Koko's makeup. Don't forget, the names all came from his children's nursery. Pooh-bah predates AA Milne (1920s), so ideally every time he's referred to, a slight but variable quirk of disgust should cross the character's face. That much detail, and well-done by performers who know what they're up to, it can builld to a ridiculous extent, culminating in Tit Willow. It is entirely possible to reduce the audience to a massive heap of quivering hilarity by generating an utterly incongruous characterisation before hand and then stretching it almost to the point of rupture in the mawkish sentiment of that song. Yes, it could be a fine lyric tenor piece - but that is the last thing it must be. It's the scrooping of the nails on the blackboard sense of humour, slapstick at it's most excruciating. And this sets the table for what follows.
@@robertarmin1441 Yep. You can find a number of different versions with lyrics to specific to their own day on UA-cam.
And yet, the original lyrics are just as funny and pertinent to me as the latest version.
This send up is exactly what Gilbert and Sullivan had in mind
always brilliant - my local light operetta company used to do one in a local park every summer and it was a highlight.
the blonde maid is either desperately holding back laughter or doing a very good impression of doing so. awesome.
follerbr You're right. By the end she can't keep it together. I loved how she interacted with after the bit of 'those who watching opera in cinemas insist'. Loved her!
Sometimes you need a chief clown to conduct the audience, bringing them in so they become unstuck from their seats. There's a lot goes on in a production you don't see, making the audience break the glass curtain.
It’s purposely done for effect
@@leninvazquez-toledo601 The wonderful Louisa MacAlpine
By no means an original joke, but true nonetheless: "You can tell just about everything you need to know about a society based on who they put on their 'Little List' song."
"And that opera house in Florence that owes me 10,000 quid." Is that a reference to something?
Probably something the Actor suggested putting in, as an Opera House in Florence is in debt £10,000 to him.
I had no idea so many Family Guy songs were covers
Oh absolutely. Seth MacFarlane is a junkie of opera and musicals. He's actually quite proud of it.
You hurt my soul
Mr. Booze is another example.
@@seanlaffey3633 what is that a parody of?
Based Bætican de /bant/ Its from the movie called Robin and the 7 Hoods. The song is also called Mr. Booze.
I had the immense good fortune to see this production at ENO. Richard Suart should be a national treasure. He is absolutely amazing
Love how the pace allows the listener to appreciate the lyric.
This song really makes me wish that I had talent, I would want to do a version where I would work my way through the spectrum and try to seat people accordingly so that by the end I would have offended everyone and everything you can think off. Imagine hearing a room filled with laughter that went like a horseshoe.
Shame, Someone cut out the 2017 one.
We can always add the self-deprecating "All people who change up the shows that others know by heart, they rewrite all the lyrics with less meaning than a fart".
It's not necessarily the cattchiest G&S song, but it's definitely my favourite for the amount of customisation different companies do for the location and times.
As slow as the tempo is, the lyrics are really funny.
1.25 speed
You have a choice - comedy is in the timing, and although Sir Arthur was a master at that, having the same timing every time out is a failure of the CD generation who expect it exactly as it is in the recording, regardless of the fact that they may have close on a dozen different tempi in different recordings in their collective noddles. Therefore, the producer has to decide which path to walk - if the musical, then keep to the original text which everyone knows and allow the MD his head, if the comedy, then the poor MD has to follow the audience, who set the pace for the comic.And the band have to follow the MD - it's quite a feat of mind-reading at times.
I prefer the slower tempos. It gives the singer more time for comedy.
Always been on my list! Come on ENO, let's have the full opera, and reciprocate Richard Suart's loyalty to this production.
I saw this last night when Richard Suart did a concert called, "A Matter of Patter" on my local island. He's absolutely brilliant in his portrayal of many colourful characters including dear Ko-ko.
An absolutely stupendous and brilliant production from start to finish. This but one of the gems.
Ohhh! - we were watching this in our local cinema and it brought the house down...happy daze...
This song 🎧never gets old lol 😂😝!
A friend of mine took her husband to the Coliseum for his birthday early this month and absolutely loved it. She had now heard the original. I want to hear the original list as written by William Schwenck Gilbert.
If it helps, most audio recordings of this song - i.e. specifically for vinyl or CD - keep the originally lyrics intact, albeit updated to be more PC, i.e. replacing "n***er serenader" with "banjo serenader", and swapping "the lady novelist" with something like "the girl who's never kissed" or "the eternal pessimist".
...the lyrics for this particular song have been adjusted since 1908 to allow for changing politics, society issues, tastes, etc., with the blessings of Gilbert, Sullivan, and D'Oyly Carte; Mr Suart was the usual ENO lead in all their G&S productions, and has written a book of all of his "Little List" lyric adjustments over the years.
Having done the same in my time with the home of the NYT, getting the music heritage restarted (I was rewiring an entire lighting bar which blew just as the overture started, on the first night and finished as the last bar played) after Britten wrecked it ten years earlier, it's even more fun to write than it is to perform - and we changed the words daily!
Excellent production NOT TO BE MISSED
HA!
The enunciation of these
denunciations
made my pants nearly be pissed!
What a gorgeous vocalist
I’m glad such technology exists
that this production
need not be missed
yes, it need not be missed
I love his little list! 😀
desperate for a new Mikado production - so many opportunities with Test and Trace pings, Dido Harding, CV19 managers and more to be added to the list.
Absolutely wonderful.
How about those who watch opera on UA-cam?
some of us are in the wrong country to see it live sadly
_For free we're enjoying this, and I guess we won't be missed_
We put them on a list, they never will be missed.
genius!
How did you find this video if you frown upon the concept.
Mikado u always cheer me up
He forgot one...
The guy who watched the Simpson's back in 1994
“…and won’t admit the damn thing, isn’t funny anymore!”
He looks like John Cleese playing that guy from _The Lorax_ .
He kind of looks like O'Hare from The Lorax (2012) which makes this even funnier to me.
Thank you 🙏🏻
Capitalist
Communist
You're all on my list
*Our list
And the mustache man
The creator of the 5-year plan
Joseph Stalin, ah who could resist
You are going on the list.
Don't forget those Nieve Anarchitsts
with their trust in human wits
I've put them on my list.
@@r.j.lombardi111
Oh yes I must resist
He is antifascist,
you can’t put Joe on that list
You can‘t put him on that list
@@venceremosallende422 good one
Wow! Bravo! Maggio Musicale pagaloooo! :)
Will there be a return of this opera this or next year? Just found Mikado and I love it!
is there a place I can buy a HD copy of this production?
LOL! As a recovering alcoholic I consider NA Beer a godsend - but hearing Jeremy Clarkson referred to right after that cracks me up!
Even if I do faithfully watch THE GRAND TOUR on Amazon Prime...
God this is beautiful
This is so good
There used to be a full video recording of this performance on UA-cam and now I can't find it anywhere, does anyone know where I can find it? It's my absolute favorite version.
Is this the one? ua-cam.com/video/vJGY6KIfwWA/v-deo.htmlsi=N60M7AmPHCF7vPMC
Accidentally got this guys signature
I always love how this song is designed to change lyrics based on the pop culture of the time period in which it is performed.
Imagine if this was performed in 2020, Koko would say something like “Those who claim COVID-19’s a hoax, yet spread in our midst, Damn right they’re on my list. Hell no, they won’t be missed.” Lol 😂
There is one ua-cam.com/video/FFAUrfwJqjtU/v-deo.html
@@isobellabrett not anymore :(
@@isobellabrett Aww, where did it go?
Funnily enough, I actually wrote my own version that references COVID deniers.
_There's the fanboys who keep asking Ringo for his autograph,_
_All people who think COVID's fake and say it's all a gaff,_
_The douche who dumped his girlfriend 'cos she got a little fat,_
_All people who think being a girl is just like being black,_
_And all the teachers giving homework cramping up your wrist,_
_They'd none of them be missed, they'd none of them be missed!_
(The idea is that I wanted to keep the rhymes sounding similar the original.)
I don't suppose there is a recording of this run available? I have searched the web and can't seem to find a place to purchase it.
Superb
If you're always stealing goodies from a big department store, you need an analyst, a psychoanalyst.
Ah, Allan Sherman...now there's a fellow who *is* missed.
I just saw him in this in October; and he had added "that Blonde in Downing Street" and also Priti Patel, the Home Secretary. Very funny and timely!
Good news and bad news: The figure in question is gone, however that line is still relevant.
Superb...
I like the little references to the modern world. xR
ALWAYS Great.
I like the Japanese setting more
Where can I buy this specific recording/version in HD?
sie sind auf meiner liste really kicks a notch
Great.!!
*hears the bit mocking trump*
*looks at release date*
Well. That aged well.
Not to mention VW and their ongoing diesel saga
Family guy bought me here.
Who is this actor? He's so good
So who is on the list this year!?
Was this, by any chance, one of those productions simulcast in cinemas? :)
No, you're thinking of the 1987 TV Version (which was probably in the cinema as well). Both were produced by the ENO so the costumes and set designs are the same.
The best version on YT is still the ‘82 Stratford festival imo
I suspect that the tone of voice for KoKo was established very early in the presentations of the Mikado.
So much better when the speed is set to 1.25
Well, you'd hate the Groucho Marx cover, then. He wasn't much of a singer, so he just spoke 90% of the song, and incredibly slowly compared to the original tempo.
@@ARCtheCartoonMaster
There's a Groucho Marx version? Off to look that up.
00:26 - Jeremy Clarkson...?
...correct!
This song should be used in anger management courses
Azimov?
I came here to say that I am still fond of the Eric Idle /Lesley Garret version.
Is this on DVD ?
A pig! oh the random chuckle this has given me. bahahahahahha!
Watched this after Family Guy.
Just another K will make things about right
How is it that whenever think i found every song Family Guy used in their show that was actually taken from somewhere else, another one shows up
Brilliant 🤣
I think this is the newest version
Ha! Spot on!
How about that guy who watched Family Guy way back in 2004 and won’t admit the damn thing isn’t funny anymore.
The singer looks like mr. o hare air from the Lorax
theres the uk prime minister whos clearing our national debt
but her counter productive methods havent delivered results quite yet
...flat.
jeeze
...those immature, who can't restrain their biased politics:
Be assured, we won't miss.
We've got you on the list.
Yeah... you can cover this song based on the pop culture on the era
First Shipoopi then Mr. Booze and now this. Can family guy come up with their own songs?
They missed a good 'pissed-missed' rhyme for the Russian drug test bit
The harder they laugh,
*the most likely they are on the list*
The zodiac killer brought me here
Same
Is this John Reed?
Ha ha lol 😂😆!
🎶🎵 “There’s the assclown who wraps a tiny item in several boxes as a gift, the roommate whose car keeps breaking down and always needs a lift.”
Ohhh, this is where Stewie got the song from..
Ha ha lol!😀😄😆🤣
As someday it may happen that a victim must be found
I've got a little list, I've got a little list
Of society offenders who might well be underground
And who never would be missed, who never would be missed
There's the white kid with the baggy clothes who's talking like he's black
The girl you date who doesn't get the jokes in “Caddyshack”
The Asian guy who cuts in front of every single line
And Britney Spears for accidentally showing her vagine
And Bill O'Reilly's ineffective dermatologist
They'd none of them be missed, they'd none of them be missed
Secret Service Men: He's got them on the list
He's got them on the list
And they'd none of them be missed
They'd none of them be missed
Stewie: There's the guy behind the news reporter waving like a fool
And Senator Bill Frist, I've got him on the list
And the fat kid smiling warmly while he's peeing in the pool
He never would be missed, he never would be missed
There's the foul-smelling boy who comes to school in camouflage
And every bleeding member of the cast of “Entourage”
And while we're on the subject, HBO deserves a whack
For ending The Sopranos with a fucking cut to black!
And guys who when you shake their hand just bump you with their fist
I don't think they'd be missed. I'm sure they'd not be missed
Secret Service Men: He's got them on the list
He's got them on the list
And they'd none of them be missed
They'd none of them be missed
Stewie: There's the guy who sits beside you and keeps farting on the plane
And Shakira's lyricist. I've got him on the list
And the smarty on Thanksgiving who says, "It's the trip-toe-fane!" (tryptophan)
He never would be missed, he never would be missed
There's the blonde who tells you loudly with a voice just like a knife
[falsetto] "You know, someone should do a sitcom based around my life!"
[normal voice] The guy who watched "The Simpsons" back in 1994
And won't admit the damn thing isn't funny anymore
Stewie and Secret Service Men: And anyone
And every one...
Who's ever...
Made me pissed!
Secret Service Men: Made me pissed!
Made me really really pissed!
Stewie: I've got them on the list
They'd none of them be missed
Secret Service Men: They'd be none, they'd be...
They'd be none, they'd be none of them be missed
Secret Service Men: He's got them on the list
He's got them on the list
And they'd none of them be missed...
Stewie: They'd none
Secret Service Men: None of them...
Of...
None of them...
Them...
None of them
Stewie & Secret Service Men: Be...
Missed!
Basso Profundo Secret Service Man: None of them be missed!
Vile
So this was from the Mikado, originally?
I remember a similar song in Family Guy.
When it takes three minutes to read it I don’t think it counts as a little list anymore
I didn't know this came before family guy
The Lib Dems, thank you sir. 😁you've done America a huge favor. 😁😂😂😂
I believe they made a Trump referance
Frank Garofalo no
Carl Morrow yes they said a tower no one could trump. They even said that in the after show.
Trump is a word too, not just a name, it means to trample in common terms.
I’m here from family guy
I can’t believe this is a real song! I guess Family Guy doesn’t make anything up.
Diana rigg doesn’t fit in with the metre. However the words we all think of before he says it, do.
The Mikado is unironically being added to the list of things that won't be missed, sadly.
"...the televangelist,
I've got him on my list..."
I thought of Family Guy did this?
No the Mikado has been round since 1885, family guy copied it as it has with several songs
