Inget jag skulle göra idag, men om du ser när denna laddades upp var det 14 år sen. Jag var helt enkelt ung å visste inte bättre. Inte mycket jag kan göra något åt nu, mer än att säga att för 14 år sen var jag en helt annan människa än jag är idag, å att jag inte visste då vad jag gör nu.
Jane Horrocks is a phenomenal singer who can hit perfectly every note she is asked to sing. Folks here commenting that she can’t sing clearly have no idea who Horrocks is, or what she can do. This style of singing flat and off-key notes, desafinado, whatever, was a specific choice for the show.
What good is sitting alone In your room? Come hear the music play. Life is a Cabaret, old chum, Come to the Cabaret. Put down the knitting, The book and the broom. It's time for a holiday. Life is a Cabaret, old chum Come to the Cabaret. Come taste the wine, Come hear the band. Come blow a horn, Start celebrating; Right this way, Your table's waiting. What good's permitting Some prophet of doom To wipe every smile away. Life is a Cabaret, old chum, Come to the Cabaret! I used to have a girlfriend known as Elsie, With whom I shared four sordid rooms in Chelsea She wasn't what you'd call a blushing flower... As a matter of fact she rented by the hour. The day she died the neighbors came to snicker: "Well, that's what comes from too much pills and liquor." But when I saw her laid out like a Queen, She was the happiest... corpse... I'd ever seen. I think of Elsie to this very day. I remember how she'd turn to me and say: "What good is sitting all alone in you room? Come hear the music play. Life is a Cabaret, old chum, Come to the Cabaret." And as for me, I made my mind up back in Chelsea, When I go, I'm going like Elsie. Start by admitting From cradle to tomb It isn't that long a stay. Life is a Cabaret, old chum, Only a Cabaret, old chum And I love a Cabaret.
people who think this is bad have zero idea of the control Horrocks has. Even the screaming is controlled. It takes immense talent to sing this "badly".
Lady Gaga a robado tantos looks tan descaradamente y lo peor es que los hace pasar como propios, si tan buen artista es no tendría necesidad de hacerlo.
Jane Horrocks captures everything about this character so perfectly and on so many levels. She's both funny and haunting at the same time and her performance of this song is filled with so much intention and the ending is bone chilling.
When i was a kid in the 90s, i remember an interview with one of Groucho's kids where they said that whenever things were difficult at home, they always knew that they could go over to Uncle Harpo's house where they always felt safe, loved, and where it was always loud with laughter and fun. Because of Harpo, i make sure that when my Nieces are with me, they feel safe to express themselves. They know that: if they do something wrong, we will simply talk it out with empathy; that i am always proud of them, because they are such kind and amazing humans. They can bang on instruments, create a mess, and know that they can speak their greatest worries, or hopes. My brother and his wife are better parents than i could ever be, i just think that every kid needs an Uncle/Aunt Harpo. Rest in joy, Harpo! 🤍🙏🕊
I adored Harpo Marx, I was a massive fan from early teens to now!! He was a great comedic genius. I so miss watching the Marx Brothers films… howling with laughter 😂
It goes without saying that this is an amazing performance (one of my faves) but I would like a moment of appreciation for Jane Horrocks' workout routine. Girl those armsss. I'm in love.
The best musical performance I think I have ever witnessed. The emotion, presentation, passion. Nothing has ever evoked such a feeling inside me as this song has. This is the way it is meant to be sung and she knew that as a fact. Where it takes place in the timeline of the musical, near the end, only adds to the building tension. When she finishes it, I can feel my own chest release. All that built up anxiety and anger, I could never see a human as Sally Bowles the way I see Jane Horrocks.
