Yes, I agree, the man singing crazy town did absolutely fantastic, but can we talk about the girl singing Stop Time. Her voice is seriously so soothing

How is this so ignored

These people are so into it and I love it 😩 People like this are what makes musicals awesome af because they're so into character that it makes the song so much strong.

Luanne’s fat lip is drying The bastard’s bacon frying The shiner on her eye gone bust and bleeding He shouts, “Girl, set the table” But he know she ain’t able Her arms done broke Hung limp like yolk And softly she’s repeating Leave Luanne Why don’t you march out that door Southern woman he ain’t no good to you Leave Luanne Louisiana wants war But it’s you who’s dying on her ruby plains And yet, Loyal Luanne remains Ever since he got him laid off His sanity’s just made off No he was never nice but now he’s cruel He rapes her and he beats her Yet she don’t fess how he treats her Cause a Bible verse says it won’t get worse And she won’t be a fool You won’t ever Leave Luanne Cause if you march out that door His truck will be gunning for you No you won’t, leave Luanne Or he’ll give you “What for? You got hearts where you should have had brains” So Loyal Luanne remains Someone’s howling Screams like sighing in battered breath Grating, growling Never dying In a fate worse than death But months of such conditions Turn laymen to logicians And tonight the bastards sleeping like a log So she plucks the kitchen cleaver Creeps to the roped up lab retriever And she cuts the rope And hope on hope She starts to shout “Your dogs got out” She’s got her chance With no back glance She runs out to the bog Screaming, screaming Leave Luanne You got a life left to live On a house hanging off the Golden Coast Leave Luanne, you won’t forget nor forgive And you don’t feel the stings, the rips and scrapes As finally Luanne escapes Swim, Luanne! Swim, Luanne! And in the swamp of beeches Oh, as the preacher preaches As a light In the night Push through the marsh and brushes As the blood inside you rushes Left and right With all your might Until you reach the bank And you crawl onto the bank And you feel a little yank on your hair And stricken, stare at the bastard Who beat you there The bastard lies in bed now Half sad his wife is dead now She drowned herself in the swamp in wild despair He thinks he used to love her But push it came to shove her A wife disposed A life case closed And no one seems to care to Grieve Luanne Now no one’s on his shoulder Yet his mattress don’t feel colder In fact it's hellish hot, and the air is dank and steamy Yet his body starts to shiver When the window cracks a sliver And a fiery fog From the miry bog Poors in the room In a sticky gloom And there the man See’s dead Luanne He’s terrified, but he keeps his pride Cause he knows that he ain’t dreaming And he starts screaming “Leave Luanne, Hell sent you back here for more Cause ain’t no one ever loved you” But said Luanne, “I’ve come to settle a score” And she shows him her feet are bound in chains And loyal Luanne Remains and remains And remains and remains Someone's howling Screams like sighing Grating, growling Never dying In a fate worse than death Leave Luanne, She cries her miserable wail So the bastards will never sleep again No, no reprieve Luanne She brings their souls down to hell A caution to the cruelest of men (a caution to the cruelest) God loves Luanne Praise be Amen

Don't know if I've ever heard anything like this song's catchy, dark, manic energy. And this is a fantastic performance. Fire.

My fave song from 35mm… I think it’s wildly underrated. Beautiful rendition!

Did I expect to listen to one that sounded like it was made in a studio? Studio quality? In a live theatre???? More likely than I think apparently.

I've always found the image in this so chilling - Luanna is a deer and come the second verse, the bastard won't rest until she's dead.

I like this version compared to the original. It should be put on ITunes

i forgot how much i loved this song

I don’t know if this account is still active, but if it is and you have more recordings from this production, I would be unbelievably grateful 😍 I want to see this cast’s performance of Twisted Teeth so bad

The guy that was like “what a bitch” after Sara was done with the killing is my spirit animal😂

oh god I hate everything about this its so well done

A fun production!

That ending was really cute

Omg thank you to my girlfriend for introducing me to this song, this is AWESOME

Luanne's fat lip is drying, The bastard's bacon frying, The shiner on her eye's gone bust and bleeding. He shouts, "Girl, set the table!" But he knows she ain't able. Her arm's done broke, Hung limp like yolk, And softly she's repeating... "Leave, Luanne. Why don't you march out that door? Southern woman, he ain't no good to you. Leave, Luanne. Louisiana wants war, But it's you dying on her ruby plains." And yet, loyal Luanne remains. Ever since he got him laid off, His sanity's just made off. No, he was never nice, but now he's cruel. He rapes her, and he beats her, She don't 'fess how he treats her, 'Cause a Bible verse Says it won't get worse, And she won't be a fool. "You won't never leave, Luanne, 'Cause if you walk out that door His truck will be gunning for you. No, you won't leave, Luanne, Or he'll give you 'What for?' You got heart where you should have had brains." And so, loyal Luanne remains. Someone's howling, Screams like sighing with battered breath Grating, growling, Never dying In a fate worse than death. But months of such conditions Turn laymen to logicians And tonight the bastard's sleeping like a log. So she plucks the kitchen cleaver, Creeps up toward his roped-up lab retriever, And she cuts the rope, And hope on hope, She starts to shout, "Your dog's got out!" She's got her chance. With no back glance She runs out to the bog, Screaming, screaming: "Leave, Luanne!" "Leave, Luanne. You've got a life left to live In a house hanging off the Golden Coast! Leave, Luanne. You won't forget nor forgive, " And she don't feel the stings, the rips, and scrapes As finally Luanne escapes. Swim, Luanne! Swim, Luanne! And in the swamp of beeches, Oh, as the preacher preaches, As the light In the night Holds through the marsh and brushes As the blood inside you rushes Left and right, Hold on tight- -Until you reach the bank And you crawl onto the bank, 'Til you feel a little yank on your hair And, stricken, stare at the bastard Who beat you there. The bastard lies in bed now, Half-sad his wife is dead now. She drowned herself in a swamp in wild despair. He thinks he used to love her, But push it came to shove her, A wife disposed, A wife case closed, And no one seems to care, To grieve Luanne. Now no one's on his shoulder, But his mattress don't feel colder, And in fact, it's hellish hot, and the air is dank and steaming. Yet his body starts to shiver When the window cracks a sliver And a fiery fog From the miry bog Pours in the room In a sticky gloom And there the man Sees dead Luanne. He's terrified, But he keeps his pride, 'Cause he knows that he ain't dreaming. And he starts screaming, "Leave, Luanne. Hell sent you back here for more, 'Cause ain't no one ever loved you." But said Luanne, "I've come to settle a score, " And she shows him her feet are bound in chains. And loyal Luanne remains And remains And remains And remains! Someone's howling, Screams like sighing With battered breath. Grating, growling, Never dying In a fate worse than death. Luanne, She cries her miserable wail So the bastards will never sleep again! No, no reprieve, Luanne, She brings their souls down to hell, A caution to the cruelest of men: God loves Luanne! Praised be! Amen!

Gonna be honest if I didn't know this was a performance by a theater company with professional actors I would assume that Mellisa and Sam were dating with that stage chemistry. He looked so proud of her and during the part where they got super close and she sang 'I wanna kiss you' x6 it looked like he was so focused on her that he almost missed his cues. Not to mention that giddy, eager nod before she pushed him away at the end. Stunning performance! Where can I see more of these two

I've listened to this so many times. So good <3

When the two start harmonizing together I got goosebumps, like that "mine" just stunning. Their voices blend together so well! I love how much emotion the main singer was able to put in his voice especially at around the 3 minute mark and the camera captures his facial expressions so well, its just beautiful and angelic.

Omg i just realized they- it all makes sense now.. The entire musical does

This is absolutely beautiful!! My favorite version of this song

Singer: Southern woman he ain’t no good to you Captions: *southern ain’t no good teeth* 😅

Okay but: The guy wearing the yellow shirt has the best energy. Man is amazing

Oh My God!

Hannah Jane Kile is awesome!

Is it wrong that i would rather listen to this on loop than study for a maths test

Literal CHILLS. Wow.

AMMAZINF

What a lovely song about love and finding one's self. I also thought maybe this could be about addiction and love. This is one of my favorite songs from this show. What a beautiful voice singing it. So much pain and hope in it.

that middle guy: "what a bitch" me: you will now never hear me sing this song without that.

I LOVE THAT THEY CLINKED GLASSES HAHA

Hol' up, is this a true story Ida where the story comes from so I don't know but if it is then that's kid a scary

Waay underrated, this musical, and it's varieties. I'd love for this video to be trending as much as something like 'Satisfied'' from Hamilton. It deserves it honestly.

The chemistry between Melissa and Sam is too outrageous in this video. And Sam didn't even speak or sing! Ugh!

I almost forgot to watch this today

I WANT TO INVENT TIME TRAVEL SPECIFICALLY SO I CAN TRAVEL BACK TO 2019 AND SEE THIS EXACT PRODUCTION

I love his voice! This is amazing :D

The original is great but I can barely listen anymore. It just sounds so much better from her! 😄

god i love the way she sings "i've come to settle a score."

I find the low number of comments suspicious.

So well done! Everybody's excellent. Solo and guy on the left are outstanding though. Love it!

BRUHHHHHHHH

Im watching this at 6 in the morning on Christmas day :D

Can we talk about 3:55 ??

she is insanely talented

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️

The main singers voice fits the song so well. The first few lines came out and I got shivers. Kudos to her!
