In the future if you are going to shoot a dance like this please, please, pease keep it at a two shot for the entire number. By going to one shots you destroy the mood and movement they were attempting to achieve. Other than that, great job and thanks for posting it.
My grandson and I saw Nat perform many times. We also thought he was the best ‘Billy’. We were there for both the matinee and evening performances on the last night. What a show it was with Elton John and Cameron Mackintosh PLUS all of the other ‘Billy’s’ on stage singing. Magic. That was 2016
Dang! He was really on his own compared to Matteo and Elliott. I know they all brought something different to the show, but I wasn't expecting so much hip hop (I guess you call it street dancing in the UK?) and acrobatics in this predominantly ballet number. He really made it work. I know other UK boys did that later, but was this common before Bradley, in this song?
@@chloeperdrix8867 Hi again! Since I posted that comment, I've seen the first three Billy's, and yeah, they were pretty street. Liam was obviously the ballet king (and still is), but the other two had the modern moves. BTW, is it me, or does Bradley actually levitate at 3:44 ? He has only one hand on the floor during a hip hop sequence, and he flows upward as he grabs his ankle, as if gravity didn't exist. Wow!
He's extraordinary! This late in the show, he's already run two marathons, and he still sings so expressively. Oh, and dances incredibly. And when he comes out of the dance to sing the last bit, he still sustains his notes, almost as if he's not even winded. Wow.
@@chloeperdrix8867 If so, he was being very professional. I am a rock musician, and I sing usually 8-12 songs per show (1/4 of our songs) for my band at each show. It can be difficult in the energy of a show to pay attention and to know when holding back is necessary. I have made that mistake numerous times, which puts the burden on our lead vocalist to cover for my mistake.
You have so many videos of this, and in every one of them you cut out the very last beat of Michael's dance. Why??? His last beat is the exclamation point to the whole scene!
What happened to the last beat? Did Zach actually not nail it solid? To me, that's the best part of this scene. I wish you hadn't edited it out, unless Zach made some kind of bizarre slip-up and you were being kind. (If that's actually the case, I thank you. I'd rather not see that.) That's his biggest moment in the show, and actually the only reason I watched this video. I wanted to see if he nailed it on West End like he nailed it on the live TV broadcast.
Effe dikke respect naar een van de meiden die heel subtiel de diadeem op heeft gepakt van een ander die afviel en hem daarna ook subtiel aan de zijkant heeft gelegd
about the "acting", I suppose Elliot Hanna was the best in 2014 .... but about the dance technique, this is surely the very very best..speed and addicted movement-music...and the live orchestra is amazing!! 2:21 is so cool but the final....incredible!
I did not care for this compared to others because it was a a lot of street dancing and acrobatics, compared to say, Eliot Hanna or Giuseppe Bonsilio who did much more actual ballet and dancing in this number. I did see in a video that they geared the dancing to what the kids were able to do but I think this kid was much more capable of putting real dancing in there than what they did. Compare to one of the others I mentioned and you will see the difference.
Wow he did so much. Like comparing Elliott Hanna's Electricity dancing, his choreo for that part seemed easier compared to Nat's. I still like Elliott's charisma and the "spark" he adds into this scene better tho, but I gotta admit, Nat has better dancing technique.
One of the best Billy. I read he and his identical twin brother suffered cancer when they were babies. Amazing strength, happy to see such a phenomenal Billy! Just like Tom Holland and Dean-Charles Chapman, I would like to see more Billy at big screen!
