    No matter how old he gets, Ken Page will be the perfect voice actor for Oogie Boogie

    to everyone saying he messed the lyrics up he most likley did it on purpose to prove he isn't lip syncing. damon albarn does this alot during his live performances cause he's so good people think he lip syncs

    • @matthewcuellar7879
      @matthewcuellar7879 8 років тому +35

      And with a voice like his, who can justly complain? Also, the performance was spot on in terms of capturing the vocal characteristics of the Bogeyman!

      Leonardo Birdman no, he simply forgot how the song goes and there's nothing wrong with that. He knows as well which is why he said at the end that the audience might know the lyrics better. It doesn't matter though, his voice is that of a legend.

      Even if he forgot some words who honestly gives a shit Ken Page is a amazing musician who has more than proved himself that he can sing and doesn't have to keep proving himself to no one plus it probably had been awhile since he had performed this so chances are he probably did forget some lyrics. Plus give the man a break he is in his 60s.

    he sounds exactly the same live , that dude is rad as shit .

  • @kylerjohnson2638
    @kylerjohnson2638 11 років тому +34

    He even says at the end, "You probably know the words better than I do." So humble!

    Ken Page is a fantastic actor and singer who puts his heart into it.
    I kind of wish he could get more roles. I mean, I'm glad he's Oogie Boogie and he still loves the role (Can't say the same for other actors who experience being pigeon holed), but it'd be cool to see him in other roles.

    • @BruceBiger
      @BruceBiger 9 років тому +1

      @beatriz6093 9 років тому +8

      You can see he playing Old Deuteronomy in "Cats, the movie" He don't sing everytime, but, when he sing, is a realy show!

    @TokkieHur 10 років тому +251

    Reason why it sounds so pure and good:
    .
    The original recording was raw and not altered with some stupid software to make it sound "better" like most performers these days

    @papershadow 10 років тому +46

    This is one credit I have to give TNBC cast. The singers for all the songs sound just as good live as in the film. Hard to sound that good without editing or noticeable sound mixing

    • @ShowtuneSampler
      @ShowtuneSampler 6 років тому

      papershadow69 There’s a very easy way to get that type of sound every single time: use musical theatre actors, or at least actors with a musical theatre background.

    Quality evil laugh, bashful, booming, guttural but somehow not cheesy and forced. Awesome feat, and something not many people can just naturally nail right away on a single take!
