Dont know if you guys cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the latest movies on instaflixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend these days =)
My best friend was grasshopper in a jr. version of this. He’s so adorably tone-deaf I had to help him with the choreography and the notes. I learned this song by heart 10000 times over. I love it so much because it manages to calm me down and cheer me up simultaneously, which is something I need more than I care to admit
My boyfriend is currently grasshopper, and im james! (yes im a girl) we are going onstage in the spring soon. he is also kinda tone deaf, and i have helped him with this also. lol are we the same person?!
Don't get me wrong, I do like the Centipede's character in the musical... but in the book and movie he was a loud, funny, disaster-causing character who James was maybe the closest to out of everyone. So why did they change him to being a grumpy person who dislikes James for the musical? Especially as every other character was really just the same as they were in the book and the movie?
I think when trying to make the bacl stories of the characters they choose to make him more bitter. Spiker and Sponge Killed his whole family, and the insects aren't the most warm to him, so He kinda just bottles up his feelings and doesn't really like james because james is human and humans have hurt him in the past so instead of connecting centipede pushes james and the others away. I also thinknthe writers did it just to give more depth the insect, you have ladybug spider and grasshopper who are the more positive ones, earthworm who is scared of him own shadow, then there is centipede, who is very sarcastic and closed off.
Taylor-Rae I guess so. I also thought maybe they needed someone else to be antagonistic towards James on the peach, because Spiker and Sponge aren't around all the time to do it.
I am seriously considering traveling to New York just to see Christian Borle open as Willy Wonka in the Broadway production of Charlie and the Chocolate factory. This is wonderful and I am ecstatic to see what he does as Wonka. He is just incredible

XxLauragatorxX That is exactly what Viewmont High School did, but we didn't do bad. I was on stage crew for it and we got good reviews from a couple talent scouts.
My school did this a month ago and I was running the music for this song. Synchronising this song with when the grasshopper started playing the violin was hard, but it was all worth it.
I remember when my middle school did this musical, I was the Grasshopper but I dropped the violin bow as the violin tune started playing. Totally mortifying but it worked out in the end
I got Spider in this show and we literally just spent all of this weeks rehearsal learning this song and the vibes were so amazingly wholesome and happy.
i was so jelous when i found out i got sponge and heard this song. we’re going to do the play in march and we just got picked. i want to be in this sonGGGG!!!!
@@Milo_Mess thanks!!!! it's going well!!! this tuesday we're running through all the dances and on saturday we're off book!!!! This cast is super talented and is so ffun to wotk with!!
The single 1 minute solo at the beginning with only 1 part for Earthworm to step in for like a 2 second break had me so shook. We already finished all our showings of James and the Giant Peach and ths song still has me shook.
My audition song for the James and the Giant Peach JR was this song!#so happy!My part,CENTIPEDE was "The worm's right.A Hairy scromp with a scary scream!Boo!We might wake up a slumbering scrunch~"
During this song I’m doing a costume change but during rehearsal it was really fun seeing the insects doing this choreo.(btw the guy playing grasshopper is 6”6 and 16 soo...)
I'm so excited! My theater is doing James and our grasshopper is literally the best! His voice is so unique and amazing and he's so awesome and he's the best!🦗
I just finished doing the junior version of this and wow do I miss it. we finished in march and I still miss the cast literally so much :( that was my very last middle school show before I head to the high school and wow :( my first show was in 6th grade and I made so many memories but now im already off to the high schooL? wow.
omg were doing this for my high school musical this year and im earthworm and my music director gave me all of the hardest harmonies IM DYING OVER HERE SJSKSJKSJSKJ
This song is a bop

Yessss
"What could go wrong, singing a song?" ///Everything proceeds to go wrong///
lol true
Dont know if you guys cares but if you're bored like me during the covid times you can watch pretty much all the latest movies on instaflixxer. Have been binge watching with my girlfriend these days =)
@Alec Tony Yea, been watching on instaflixxer for since december myself =)
thats what i was thinking of-
Finally found Christian Borle's song on this album
The fact that Spotify doesn’t have this is a ✨crime✨
It is
Amen
IK
I agree!
It’s not ok 😭
I recently did the Jr. version of this play, and I was Centipede. It was so hard to keep a grumpy face during this song, I just wanted to be happy lol
I play centipede now and i find it difficult not to dance in this song and I cant keep a straight face during everything that you are
EYYyyheheh! Centipeeeeeeeeeedddddddddeeeeeeeeee!!!
PikaCrafter I just got centipede in my school musical!
PikaCrafter I’m also centipede and it’s so hard
Hello fellow Centipedes. This song made me want to be the grasshopper so bad.
✨Christian Borle✨ just made this song 1000000 times better
I literally love him so much!!!
I'm here for him

we are going onstage in the spring soon.
he is also kinda tone deaf, and i have helped him with this also. lol are we the same person?!
@@SunsetEdits21 haha, thats a cool coincidence!
@@eggsy8654 yeah! lol
I'm doing backstage crew for this musical-this is easily my favorite song.
Literally the exact same for both of those things, Shake it up + Welcome Home tie for a close second tho
Bro same(you can just say "crew")

Maybe you read the worms part dono
FollowTheWizard I agree, I like the animated version of the centipede much better
Plus also, the musical is WAY better than the creepy original
as you can see from my profile pic, I was Grasshopper and I know this song by heart.
I got grasshopper and am doing this musical

as someone who is part of the james and the giant peach musical as in ive been in it that is not the lyrics
@@be_eny for my play it was. Maybe you used a different song?
@@be_eny for the play i was in years ago the lyrics were slightly different too, the songs must be a little different
Everyone - *lead roles*
Me - *ensemble*
I literally asked to be ensemble and regretted it :/
@@kenzi5137 i mean the ensemble for this could be fun
same and it actually hurts bc i have a lower vocal range than the girl who got it in my school + they're making everything higher for them and i cant go that high so I've just given up tbh

I got Spider in this show and we literally just spent all of this weeks rehearsal learning this song and the vibes were so amazingly wholesome and happy.
I was james here and I love this song so much.

I am playing centipede in a production of this and so hard to keep a strait face
This song screams ✨jazz squares✨
I got grass hooper too i nailed this song so much fun
This is my second favorite because the feels in Middle of a Moment tho
This was Soo helpful when our music director was sick and we had no piano or CD but we did have a speaker. Thank you so much for this.
I was the Spider in the jr version a few years and I would kill to be her again in the full length I loved this musical with all my heart
This is for sure my fav song! :)
if I get grasshopper this is my song
Too bad you won't cuz I'm getting it fam 👌🏿
WraithPvP GFX Gaming and Vlogs were getting down to the real questions here. (I'm agreeing with you)
Well yeah, obviously. The grasshopper sings the song, so of course it would have been your song.
Galactic Puppet 😂

I just finished playing Grasshopper and my sister was Ladybug lol. This song was sooooo fun to sing!!!!!
if u got centipede and ur not a slytherien then something is wrong
Miriam Ross is the centipede ambitious? Or cunning? Or is he just grumpy and you’re looking into stereotypes.
why is this such a bop???
I play centipede in this as of now, i'm so jealous watching everyone else sing for most of this and just standing awkwardly to the side 😭
god i love christian borle
