@@pasqualedavino8145 The movie is a cult classic it has it's own frigging day in Canada name another film that has a day dedicated to it every year anywhere? Go ahead I'll wait.
Paul Williams - what can you say about him? Love all the music in Phantom of the Paradise. Genius lyricist and musician. I’ve enjoyed his music since the early 1970s. How about all of you? Hell of it YES 👍
Never sing my music again. Not here, Not Anywhere. You understand me... NEVER Again. My music only for Phoenix. Only She can sing it. Anyone else that tries.... DIES!!
You can tell from the audience they are extremely enthusiastic with the entire performance. Paul William is a genious songwriter and performer. A complete natural.
This aired on Wednesday May 25, 1977 and it is a notable date for two reasons...it was the final episode of the Brady Bunch Hour, and it was the very day Star Wars was released including showings at Mann's Chinese Theater in Hollywood. The rest is history.
Played over the closing credits of "Phantom of the Paradise", I always loved this song. However, I never saw this Brady Bunch show, so it took me nearly 50 years, to finally see Paul Williams performing it.
It was the 70s! The same decade that featured a geriatric Wookie beating it off to a holographic Dihanne Carroll in a family-friendly Holiday Special! Williams even performed this very song on The Muppet Show of all places!
This makes my day. I watch this a lot. Had to finally add ya up. IF I cover one song it will be this one. Paul is a huge talent ot me and i wish Iwhen they all come to say goodbye I can reincarnate as Stephen Kessler. I remember Paul as many things and some very personal but I have nothing but respect to this msucial genius. I am glad you are NOT gone. BIG LIKE BrosKpr!
Enough with the short jokes! Loved it when Paul pushed Gregg & is it peter in the pool!!!.. Love this song & Loved the movie Phantom of Paradise. Thanks 4 posting this video~ ( 10+STARS)
Paul Williams is one of the best song writers of the last 100 years. BTW his career goes much further back than this. We've only Just Begun sung by the Carpenters was something he wrote for a bank commercial.
Ok but does any other millennial remember when he was on Dexter’s lab teaching Dexter how to play the piano? And they sang a song together. I loved that episode when I was little.
Donnie and Marie had roller skaters. Someone else (don't remember) had ice skates. Sonny n Cher had dancers if I remember. It was an answer to Jackie Gleason's dancer girls from the late 60's. Every "variety" show had something in the early 70s
I'm so glad he got sober after so many years. He's seems very inebriated and his apperance is pudgy which is obviously due to his substance abuse problems at the time. He's even having trouble lip syncing to his own song.
I loved the Brady Bunch as a kid. Jan was my favorite, but I thought Peter was cute too. Hey, I was always a straight shooter! Well, maybe not perfectly straight :)
This clip is from the finale of the variety show in 1977. The only explanation I can offer is that Paul Williams was contending with substance abuse and was reported to have been completely fit shaced when the show was taped. Perhaps he didn't realize three years had passed when he decided to perform it.
I forgot all about this guy. I always saw images of him back in the 70's but never saw him perform until now. I always thought he was just some funny looking guy, like a little joke or something.

“Don’t ever touch my body”
- Paul Williams
One of the e greatest lines ever
"Now where in business together...forever" another great line.
It's a amazing that a song with such dark lyrics is played on the Brady Bunch Hour.
this movies is flop sorry ma as goodreally success of soundtrack sory for william finley is dead 2012 ciao
Because the Brady Bunch was dark...
Watch the series again and you will see how subtle the dark is.
Hardy Boys too

"If I could live my life half as worthlessly as you

Absolute genius. 🤩
I love Phantom Of The Paradise !! one of my all time fave movies!
Same!
Yes

Paul Williams is astounding. He makes songwriting seems so effortless.
He seems like someone whose playful with it
10-19-1974... My mother had tickets to phantom of the paradise... But i came 3 days early... This is MY SONG.
The whole soundtrack for Phantom of the Paradise is incredible, Paul Williams kills it!
So clear he's lip syncing here though, the music is literally the version from the soundtrack haha
Paul Williams and Harry Nilsson are two of the best songwriters from the 70's.
Gordon.Lightfoot also

Where do you think you're going, Tinkerbell?
Noooooooooo! That'll bring me down!
Sephys Rainbow Why was this one on the Brady Bunch hour!?!
@GaryPeterson67 Cincinnati....
The people of Winnipeg must have freaked at this when it aired. PHANTOM FOREVER!
Dude, you and, like, 7 other people know about the Winnipeg thing
exactly @@featherelfstrom8405
I knew cos I live in Winnipeg.Don’t know why the movie did so well here but bombed elsewhere.Great movie.Funny,satirical,Jessica and terrific music.

If I ever have the misfortune to die, this song will play at my funeral.
good, I'm not the only one
Wow, this is a genius idea!
Make sure you play touch when you know you're going to go.
Go off true and peacefully
If?
sounds more misfortunate to never die
the thunder clapping interups a rather nice song.
I like it lol
This song screams Halloween to me.
I've had this on my Halloween playlist for years. It fits perfectly!!
I loved the movie. Still watch it once in awhile. Paul is a musical genius. many have sung his songs.
Played over the closing credits of "Phantom of the Paradise", I always loved this song. However, I never saw this Brady Bunch show, so it took me nearly 50 years, to finally see Paul Williams performing it.
SWAAAANNNNNNNNN!!!!!! Its still alive!! He din't die!!!
LaClaudis so it means....Winslow is still alive too!!!
@GaryPeterson67 i'm afraid Beef is definitly dead 🙈
Paul Williams " GOAT " Master Lyricist , Musician and Artist.
And he’s also the voice of Penguin from Batman The Animated Series. Totally amazing
Paul is a musical genius, I love him, but I didn't think they'd let him sing this song on TV variety hour in the 70s
It was the 70s! The same decade that featured a geriatric Wookie beating it off to a holographic Dihanne Carroll in a family-friendly Holiday Special!
Williams even performed this very song on The Muppet Show of all places!
I thought I was tripping when I stumbled upon this flipping channels a few months back. Never knew til then that Williams actually performed it live.
Yes, children, in the 70s TV executives were so high, this made sense.
Paul Williams the greatest!!!!
Phantom of the paradise is so underrated
Paul Williams was the best song writer of our generation!!! by far!!! Nobody can ever write songs like him! I totally love him and his music. :-)
What do you mean was? He's apparently still working on new songs. And his book Gratitude and Trust is a damn good read and uplifting.
J adore Paul williams❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I know of someone that had this played at their funeral. : *(
My plans exactly.
O.O...i guess i can't hug him for thanking him for giving us grate music like this
Paul Williams has forgotten more about the music industry than new people in the biz will ever learn.
He introduced Still Alive at SXSW but couldn't hang around for a Q&A. Cool as hell anyway...
Pushing people twice his size into the pool. Small but fierce!!
How cool is this 🇨🇦
Wow, never knew this existed, love it.
Great song from phantastic movie!
He is AMAZING
Juicy performance
They're a reflection of the past.

70's were awesome.. Him singing this on the Brady Bunch special = Awesome
This is great! Cue the applause for the synchronized swimmers.

I think this was an Oscar nominee for best song
Just a fucking great movie, the sound track is fucking killer
Enough with the short jokes! Loved it when Paul

Thanks! I remember seeing this in the '70's. Favorite song from Phantom.
Paul "Pengy" Williams.
You ARE amazing.
I call him Sweets.
He did this on Nancy Drew back in the late 70s, too.
Sensational 👏👏👏
I didn't know about these 2 guys.
Splendid.
Paul Williams is simply DIVINE.
I love this guy
Luv the song and the movie Phantom of the Paradise!!
Hey! Cousin Oliver grew up!!!
But not very far up. 😆
Un tema que cambio la forma de ver la musica en funcion de imagenes, fue el primero que me hizo repensar la musica. Paul un grande
Classic!!!! Paul It's the BEST
This song could apply to so many modern celebs
Happy birthday Paul
i'm going to always be quoting dont ever touch my body now
This is so 70's I feel like I need to eat some Life cereal and watch Saturday morning cartoons
increible!
Paul Williams was great.
I really love that 'although your .usic lingers on, we're all still glad you're gone' can apply to Wnslow or Swan.
YES! I WAS THINKING THE SAME!
Looove this song......
That's the exact track from the film!
Long live Swan.
Epic!!!!!!!!!
thank you paul for kermets song rainbow conection
love this
This is most awesome thing I’ve ever seen. Hahaha, this is fucking great!
Paul Williams is one of the best song writers of the last 100 years. BTW his career goes much further back than this. We've only Just Begun sung by the Carpenters was something he wrote for a bank commercial.
"I'm under contract too."
Swan... He has no other name!
Phantom of the Paradise!
Just fucking classic lol.😁 1974 enough said.
L9ve love love
The actual performance begins @1:18 ...
Truly terrible staging. I love it.
LIKE LIKE LIKE..Tema de la película El fantasma del Paradise
As a short person I so feel this "Never touch my body." Killer job with the song, but someone was a little over excited with the lighting...
I was looking for this comment 😅
That's a pretty dark song for a Brady bunch variety show.
YESSS!!!
Ok but does any other millennial remember when he was on Dexter’s lab teaching Dexter how to play the piano? And they sang a song together. I loved that episode when I was little.
Phantom of the Paradise rules
“Don’t ever touch my body,”
Don't EVER touch my body. * pushes into pool* Fuckin legend.
I don't want to be rude but I am fascinated by his appearance, like he skip puberty and went straight in to old age.
Oh Paul, you're lipsynching. Who cares? Its a great friggin' song! Long live the 70s!!
Don´t EVER touch my body.
Man they are both so baked. And, given the timing of this, Paul was probably drunk.
I’ve never understood why all the episodes of this show included a pool. I guess pools were cool in the 70’s.
Donnie and Marie had roller skaters. Someone else (don't remember) had ice skates. Sonny n Cher had dancers if I remember. It was an answer to Jackie Gleason's dancer girls from the late 60's. Every "variety" show had something in the early 70s
@@michelletribble7327 Yeah, they all had dancers. That still doesn’t explain the swimming pool.
@@marcuspd7502 The Brady Bunch had syncronized swimmer/dancers. Needed a pool to pull that off
I'm so glad he got sober after so many years. He's seems very inebriated and his apperance is pudgy which is obviously due to his substance abuse problems at the time. He's even having trouble lip syncing to his own song.
I believe the pudginess was caused by the diabetes but the alcohol and substance abuse didn't help.
Don't ever touch my body >:-(
Swaaaaaaan!!!!
Nothing matters anyway and that's the hell of it.....
