Vocal coach reacts to THE FLASH musical episode 

Can you do the Lucifer musical episode?

Running home to you is an OG song 👍

Really surprised you didn't recognize Jesse L. Martin (he plays Joe West). Martin was in Rent.

You should do buffy the vampire slayer musical episode

Do yourself a favour. Watch the movie Rent! Jesse Martin as Tom Collins is one of the most wonderful singers. Truly worth watching. As a singer interested in Musical Theatre it is a must see.

yup

😂😂 yeah they must’ve been like oooohh shittt

The funny thing is they asked and they said yes

😂😂

Honestly, I was waiting for this episode from the moment I knew Barrowman was involved with the Arrowverse, but every new addition to the cast was like an added promise that the musical episode was coming. I'm still sad they didn't utilize everyone they could have though

that i love it

the way Naya was doing a voice in a Batman animated film.. seems like everyone in Glee is destined to work for Marvel/DC someday

And the guy who played Dave Karofski was in flash.

it's a gleeunion!

@@nativenewyorker3144 I just watched that episode a few weeks ago lol it made me so happy!

Too bad the incest kind of ruins it 😐

@@TheMaestro1275 incest? Barrys dad went to prison and his mom died so joe took barry in. Iris and Barry are not related at all lmao. Maybe you should do the research or watch the show without making claims you have no clue about.

@@bonkey12 I know that they're not related, and I have watched most of the show (I stopped at around season 5-6), but for some reason it's always made me uncomfortable how the love of siblings "blooms" (I can't think of a better word rn) into romantic love. It also made me uncomfortable how jealous Barry got in the earlier seasons whenever iris got with someone else although it's none of his damn business. I don't know, It's just a personal gripe of mines.

@@TheMaestro1275 they were best friends who were LIKE siblings, they never said "she's my sister" or "he's my brother" The fact is they were raised from the age of 10 onwards so realistically for 8 years and he was in love with her before her dad adopted him

Jesus loves you

yes he tap dances in glee!

It saddens me so much that their characters can't be together in the show, but the fact that they're married in real life makes it slightly better. Haha.

@@Kelociraptor7 Yesss and they seem so great together. I’m absolutely in love with Melissa Benoist so seeing her truly happy makes me happy. 😭

@@typiper they had SO much chemistry!

@@Kelociraptor7 yeah I love that they are together and have a cute family! I love that they are happy! Though in my opinion I do feel like their characters weren't great for each other. Their chemistry is amazing, that's a given but with Mon-el's tendency (before going into the future) of not listening to Kara and not treating her in the way that respects her individuality and the need of her not fully needing to be saved all the time (this episode excluded), made me think that Mon-el and Kara had too many things counteracting each other with their personalitlies and what they need/wanted in a relationship. If that makes sense.

Yes

Truly

It's a Broadway talent showcase mixed up with a Glee reunion, since the main characters and villain were on Glee

It really woulda been a shame. I wish they let both of them sing a lot more in each of their shows. Like, please, gimme more!

And even a lot of the actors not in this episode have some sort of musical theatre experienxe

@@lukemccord2690 really? Like who? Aside from passing characters that were only seen a few times

and was the singer for one of the songs in twisted (not in show, but in the closing credits and on the soundtrack album)

Not only that, but they went to college with and graduated 3 years behind Pasek and Paul, which is part of how they got involved in this episode. Breaks my heart as a Buckeye that it was that school up north, but I can make an exception because they are all awesome.

I’m so glad someone put this because it’s so sad that others don’t know it!!!

THATS SO COOL!!

Yes, and Chris and Grant were also classmates at Elon University, a great performing arts school. They’ve remained friends since those early years. Chris has an amazing voice.

Same with Kara, she's used to being bullet proof

Barry*(no offence)

I love how this type of thing is just normal for us LMAO

I love this sentence haha

If I didn't know the context that would've sounded weird XD

I mean... spoiler alert... but yeah.

@@carolinealano3962 she’s not watching the show, just this episode so it’s all good

don’t we all

accurate XD

*and Jeremy Jordan

@@giugiulinda1 mhm

I was sobbing when he left supergirl

I know

I literally remember crying during the scene the first time I saw it.

There are so many Arrowverse actors that have musical theater backgrounds! There's another episode where Barry and Kaitlin sing, and Joe is a singer in an alternate universe that Barry visited.

@Jow 3 Grant isn’t dead?

Yes glee reunion;)

@@koolshi5573 yeah I’m very confused

@Jow 3 I'm sorry what!? Grant ain't dead man...

They did have to comb through four Arrowverse shows for this cast

I concur! 😂❤️ She is the cutest.

she literally mentions that in the video lmao

@@leewinstead917 no these are all main cast

@@phshgaming5281 Not of Flash was what I meant

I never caught that the first time I saw this episode ... I just thought it was a nod to Barry being the Scarlet Speedster and Kara the Girl of Steel (huckleberry is a fruit, but it's also a shade of red that is mixed with blue, more of a reddish purple).

Berry? Not wally?

@@burntcandle_daoist Nope, Barry had the dad jokes. Wally was more whimsical

@@benjaminscott8198 I kinda hate that they tried making movie flash more whimsical it just didn’t work out the way they wanted

It gives me ladybug and chat noir vibes

The flash is always late also

😌

@@HannahBayles fyi HR is the name of a character, I believe he is a scientist/writer (I won't put any spoilers) 🤗🥰 Also if you like superhero things you should definitely watch The Flash and Supergirl series

@@bethelliot7140 and Arrow

@@HannahBayles Hannah, Darren, Melissa, and grant were all in glee

"Obviously it's 'Daddy' something..." 🤣😂🤣

That’s why I’m rooting for gilded age to have one. It would be glorious with that casttt

Both of them have been on broadway, i think. Maybe? I dont know. But theyve been performing for a while

Grant starred in West Side Story and travelled doing shows. Melissa has background is musical theatre as well and recently starred in the Carol King Musical!

Also Jessie L Martin (played the original Tom Collins in Rent) and John Borrowman played multiple roles on broadway. This entire cast is just musically talented 👌👌👌

Same

@@cheyennetilton6027 Yeah and it’s such a huge coincidence too. Like they all happened to be professional in singing

*Benoist

melissa was also on broadway

I wanted Jesse L Martin to have his own song!

If only they had given them any notable songs to perform :(

@@aytcs Chris and Grants friendship is so underrated

Most of them actually!!! Tom Cavanaugh and Keiynan Lonsdale can also sing but they didn’t get to sing.

Yeah they all have experience and it’s great

im so much more educated than her on these things its hilarious, I was born in 2010 and I know that as well as many other things

That comment and 4:20 "Teach me a lesson Darren Criss". They spoke to my soul

Jesse L Martin can tap dance as well

@@octosadventures1949 *flashbacks to comic con panel*

Indeed. Why don't showoff whatcha got ?

The episode caught me off guard like wtf all these people can sing?

@@mschickenwing9953 literally one of my favorite cast moments

actually Victor Garber was written off the following season

He’s also a British musical star…

Not to mention SO many musicals in the west end and several on broadway

She has no idea

Absolutely no idea

definitely no idea

No idea ever

Ikr

And that heal fast

or aren't bulletproof at all and just do it to protect someone

Bahaha

OMWF was easily one of the greatest musical episodes in history. Still listen to some of the songs from that to this day.

Clearly they're racing, until a bolt is thrown or a punch.

Omg lol

Yup

I love the flash and super girl

My favorite is when they introduce the two characters to each other. Kara is on fire and Barry goes to pay the fire and then goes “oop! Nope, not touching without consent”

@@Kat006Kitty He doesn't say not without consent, he just doesn't want to touch the fire lol

@@CMThota Well not exactly. He doesn't pat it out cuz he got flashbacks to when Felicity's shirt got caught on fire, and he tried to pat it out and it ended with her taking her shirt off lol Didn't want the same thing happening with Kara.

@@TechnoPup Oh yeah!! Sorry I completely mental-blanked on that, I've watched more Supergirl than Flash so I was just associating it with the one scene in the crossover

Do you remember which episode this was? lol im trying to find it and cant just because i want to watch it again

They had a press release that said this

AND WE DID

@@keyboardsmash3983 that's awesome

It was so random 😂

And, yes, we did 😁

*almost

Literally my exact thought I was like “well we’ll we’ll how the tables have turned” 😂

Did I miss something ??? 🤔

YES finally

I mean it was Blaine’s own fault he got blinded. The slushee would have hit Kurt’s chest and just ruined his clothing. Tried to be hero and just got hurt instead.

SAMEEEE

She should watch it

I came here to say that and i saw your post. So, yes, i cried too.

What episode is that?

@@samwich288 If i'm not mistaken, it is on Supergirl 3x08.

Harpist.

Ya

Naw this is an easy day

fr

I love this comment bc it’s so true

Ikr! Part of menthinks they just did this episode cos they realised like, "wait, our entire cast is filled with greta singers! WE MUST DO A MUSICAL EPISODE!!!"

@@Aisha_Luv if you watch the behind the scenes of this episode that is exactly what they did

@@jamesrodd8667 iirc they just did what the fans of the arrowverse have been saying that they should make a musical because of these cast.

100% this! Nearly everyone who sang has professionally sung for years.

@@Aisha_Luv I am like they should really do another one before SuperGirl is gone, but I guess do it before the flash goes and bring back the whole crew.

I watched Supergirl before I watched Greys and spent all of Lexie's seasons like, "wow, she's so beautiful. I wonder why I've not seen her in anything else" and never once clocked that she was Alex. I also watched all of Glee and never once clocked it was Melissa Benoist in both. I only realised for both when I went to imdb. The Supergirl/Superman hairstyle and glasses fixes would work on me for sure :P

Yesss that's exactly what I thought!

Was going to say the same thing. I mean... They're superheroes. C'mon! 🤦🏼‍♀️

I was about to say that Kara has been bulletproof her whole life and Berry can dodge bullets, they were both just forgetting the rules of the movie

now the real question is, who commented this first...

damn who hurt you lol

Nice spot 😮🧐

I read hummelberry

It's an actual song and it says huckleberry friend, yeah

i was about to SAYYY i nvr realizedd

@@arandomgirl306 Right, but they purposefully made it a pun

How did i miss that what part of the episode is it

darren and carlos are both original members of team starkid, a musical production company

I mean so meny arrow verse characters are in glee

Mr Shue’s next lesson

I love that glee had the superhero episode and Melissa’s character was like ‘skin tight spandex? not my thing’ And then a few years later she was supergirl😂😂

Dammit barry

that's very true. Supergirl is basically invincible as long as she has her powers but strong villains can still hurt her as can magic and Green Kryptonite. A red sun will also weaken her powers.

@@MattZRJSRoxy thanks, Captain Obvious. 😏

It’s true. Superheroes don’t look both ways when crossing the street.

@@MattZRJSRoxy super girl is not invinsible lol , I could make a case barry is currently stronger than her

@@godusopp2752 I would say you’re wrong, but you’re not. Flash is the best hero due to his speed.

Thank you😂 I was saying that

I literally CANT think of anything else when I hear H.R. lmao

I still find it weird they said H.R. when his initials are H.W.

@@andrealperowitch5273 i think H.W doesn't sound good tbh😂

@@andrealperowitch5273 I think it is Harrison R. Wells.

And along those lines, most of the time bullets just bounce off of Kara.

and supergirl is used to being bulletproof

Right!? You have Broadway actors like Victor Garber, Jesse L. Martin, Jeremy Jordan, stage performers like John Barrowman, and of course Grant Gustin, Melissa Benoist and Darren Criss were all in "Glee" soooo much musical talent in one episode

@@PrinceTrexus Don’t forget Carlos Valdez. He not only trained in musical theater (and was in Starkid alongside Darren Criss), but he was also on Broadway.

Lollll I was like so who's gonna tell her?

I was like HOW DARE she not know John Barrowman? Lol.

And Martin!

I yelled at my phone when she said that too like seriously?!? And Darren, grant and Melissa were literally in a show called glee about singing so why is she surprised they can all sing? Then again she may just not watch glee or doctor who (which is where I was originally introduced to John Barrow man) so cant really get mad

How did she not know who John Barrowman is?

He was on Broadway aswell

God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him won’t perish but will have eternal life.

Awh thats so cute😭

yess

I didn’t know this

@@Yuki-qs5mt huh??? 💀💀

Amd Carlos Valdez went to the same University as Darren Criss and was a part of StarKid. And John Barrowmam has serious Broadway and WestEnd experience.

Wait whats the warblers nod thing?

@@livorourke2369 I think the dance move that grant did during "put a little love in your heart"

Vanguardmetrics nah it’s the one in 11:04 by Grant, followed by Darren’s a few seconds later

Liv ORourke Warblers is a performing group in Glee. Darren and Grant’s characters were once members. The hand to chest and swaying thing was kindof a signature move when Grant was the team’s lead.

ME TOO. I want to play the song at my wedding.

Kara's version is really good

@@adrianarango8320 I agree. I wish we had a full version of the song from her

@@adrianarango8320 I like her version as well but it was definitely sped up but I just slow it down

Omg me too!

Honestly it was a travesty that they decided not to do another musical episode after that. It's even more of a disgrace considering how Supergirl is ending now. I want them at least to say goodbye! Come on!

This was honestly one of the only musical episodes of a generally non musical show that I absolutely adore. And I know for a fact that it was due to the cast.

​@@guillemmartinez9958 Yeah, at least one crossover between flash and supergirl to say goodbye to seeing them together as a team 💔

@@karlaquintana9143 it is heartbreaking to think they won't get to say goodbye😭😭😭

@@guillemmartinez9958 well flash is having like a 5 part crossover starting season 8 premieres in November so maybe they will

Not anymore. They are divorced

@@eleanorlyndon865 I haven’t found that anywhere online. I know she divorced Blake Jenner but not Chris Wood.

@@eleanorlyndon865 what no they're not. They have a baby boy who was born a few months ago and they seem super happy

@@eleanorlyndon865 they aren't divorced, spreading fake information is disrespectful

@@eleanorlyndon865 they arent divorced- melissa was also pregnant-

Kara Melissa Benoist is really married to the boyfriend

I think they both ran in the middle of that gun fight cuz usually it wouldn’t be that dangerous to them and they weren’t used to not having their powers to protect them. But yes, her reaction was hilarious 😂

I love that moment, when Hannah said: "Girl! You're gonna get shot! ... IDIOTS." hahahah You know, they're just cute dumbass superheroes, Supergirl literally is bulletproof, sooo... You're right, idiots ;)

yea didn't know that when i first saw it but love that they put jokes in fo the gleeks who knew that

@@gray1177 Agreed. Flash is used to being able dodge bullets with ease and supergirl is used to having them literally just bounce right off her, they don't think about regular guns with the same caution normal people do.

WHY ARE YOU HERE PD? Also, great explanation 👌

BRO PD WHY ARE YOU HERE LIKE HI

PD you are always everywhere I'm never expecting you to be at! 😂 it's a surprise everytime

There's actually a lot musical theatre alums in these shows. They didn't even have time to showcase Chris Wood, Tom Cavanagh, Amy Pemberton, or, if you want to go outside this particular season, Ciara Renee and Colin Donnell.

Yes great explanation

Melissa too!! She was in beautiful the carole king musical for a limited run,

I didn't know grant was on broadway. time to go look him up on broadway.

@@hazelfilene964 yeah I think it was west side story but i could be wrong

@@hazelfilene964 I think he was in the tour cast of West Side Story.

@@CareylovesNY yeah I just looked him up. I believed y’all when you said he was ok Broadway I just hasn’t heard that/didn’t remember 😊

Why was this so funny to me LMAOO

BAHHA

What's H.R. , other than the cool wells

@@yousifyounan6579 Human Resources

@@yousifyounan6579 Human Resources

@@mayam-f9697 I forgot about that! He was amazing!

@@mayam-f9697 oh my god i didn't know that! 😂

I KNOW!!!! I also loved that Carlos made an appearance in the 10iversary

Same here!!! Always happy whenever I see a fellow Starkid fan!

I didn't know it was after this episode!!!! That's so cool!

Omg!!!! That made me love them THAT much more

It wasn´t after this

@@juanj1557 It was, after shooting it, Mel and Chris got together

I was so sad when Mon-El had to leave on Supergirl but when I found this out it made me feel 100 times better to know they ended up together in real life because I thought Mon-El and Kara would end up together on Supergirl

IKR.

he’s a professional dancer before glee

The title is actually just Runnin' Home to You

What are the chords?
