13 years later and I'm here enjoying this relic again. After High School Musical, I kind of starved into teen musicals. And that's what captivated me, because it had a more serious approach, when you didn't even talk much about bullying effectively. It was here that I met some alternative bands and the musical genre "Ska". I have a lot of affection for this film. 💜 2023
Stlll LOVE this film! Out of all the teen musicals, this one was the most inspirational and substantial! The storyline line/message was great and the soundtrack was great. It was awesome that everybody in this film actually played the instruments themselves and weren't miming! Wished this had a sequel 😢
I keep hoping someday, there will be a sequel to this amazing movie, made me laugh, cry and feel love. Thank you for making such a touching and inspiring movie!
Of all the songs from high school musical-esque movies, this may be the most criminally underrated one of all time. It was a catchy pop take on the hard work that Jason Robert Brown originally put in, and they really did it justice.
I'll never be A knight in armor With a sword in hand, Or a kamikaze fighter Dont count on me To storm the barricades And take a stand, Or hold my ground; You'll never see Any scars or wounds I dont walk on coals, I wont walk on water I am no prince, I am no saint, I am not anyones wildest dream, But I will stand behind And be someone to fall back on
I'll never be A knight in armor With a sword in hand, Or a kamikaze fighter; Dont count on me To storm the barricades And take a stand, Or hold my ground; Youll never see Any scars or wounds - I dont walk on coals, I wont walk on water: I am no prince, I am no saint, I am not anyones wildest dream, But I will stand behind And be someone to fall back on. Some comedy - Youre bruised and beaten down And Im the one Whos looking for a favor. Still, honestly, You dont believe me But the things I have Are the things you need. You look at me Like I dont make sense, Like a waste of time, Like it serves no purpose - I am no prince, I am no saint, And if thats what you believe you need, Youre wrong - you dont need much, You need someone to fall back on... And Ill be that: Ill take your side. If Im the only one, Im used to that. Ive been alone, Id rather be The half of us, The least of you, The best of me. And I will be i'll be Your prince, Ill be your saint, I will go crashing through fences In your name. I will, I swear - Ill be someone to fall back on! Ill be the one who waits, And for as long as youll let me, I will be the one you need. Ill be someone to fall back on ill be someone to fall back on one to fall back on...
the lines in the video are so true....i couldn't say it better....one of the best movies,great story,great actors,amasing music and everything thats left for an unforgettable movie!!you'll never regret you've spent a little time to watch this movie
I was really surprised by this movie. It was rather like teen movies were in the 80s, rather than what they've become- it had youth, but it still had soul.
I love this song so much, I can listening this song for hours. I mean DAYS !! And you know.... I am a boy!! So, BANDSLAM IS MY FAVORITE MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is so weird that this is a Jason Robert Brown song... I had no idea it was in this film! Anyone who doesn't know him, go and download the Last 5 Years cast album (and Songs for a New World) RIGHT NOW!
soulbean I saw the previews and thought I wanted to see it. 4 years later and forgot about it. Found it for 99 cents at blockbuster...greatest 99 cents ever spent.
Loved your song Aly I exspecially liked the line --Ill stand behind and Lizotte from NY loves you Alyson Michalka your gorgeous plus you carry a great true talent xoxoxoxoxoxoxo!
I love this movie. Don't understand why this film failed to earn enough to even break even. It earned something like 2 million dollars. Maybe in a period of hip hop, the kids just didn't want this kind of music anymore?
I don't know who composed this song, nor I know who sang it. That's a killer combination for sure. Move your insides, goes straight to your heart and never come back. Expecially on days like todays when music seems to have lost much value than in past decades (my opinion, nothing more than this) a song like this is really welcomed. Thumb up in the sky.
really good song and i love the part wen u sing I am no prince no saint I am not anything u want be if that's the rite words :) xx and another thing I love the movie BANDSLAM !!!!!
