Riverdale is a great example of: “Over sexualizing things doesn’t make them any better.”
They are all like 17
Yet they censored words in Candy Store but then they sexualized the dance so *yeah*
Lana the tricerotops actually in real life they are 23 and up lili is the youngest other then the younger people in the show like jellybean or trinity.
yesimstrange yesssssss what on EARTH was all that jaz
Literally they’re supposed to be in high school 💀
you guys remember when riverdale was about a boy who got murdered
No, actually :)
You guys remember when it was a fun comic that had crossovers with Sabrina?
Yeah, stopped watching after season one, the only one that's really good in my opinion
And incest. Don't forget about that.
Its pure garbage now
...But i cant stop watching...
Its not exactly boring like 13 reasons why season 3, something about the ridiculousness of riverdale makes me not want to stop
“Beautiful” and “Big Fun” on riverdale are lacking so much emotion it’s scary 😭
Not to mention the awkward dancing 😟
free the rivedale actors ong
they absolutely butchered the heathers songs
big fun was literally the worse like the voices didnt match at all ☠️
Yeah it’s sooo bad and cringe. Did they sale the show to a fired broadway exec... cause it makes no since. If your going to do it. Atleast do it right.
“You just gotta prove you’re not a doorknob anymore”
💀💀
That part hurt me the most
Whats wrong with loser
ATLEAST CHANGE TO SUCKER IF THEY'RE GONNA CENSOR IT-
IM CRYING
@@mselysia834 I mean, at least use loser, its no the word they use but if they really cant say pussy or lame-ass the I guess loser is the only option

Riverdale: Changes some of the swear words in the song
Also Riverdale: allows these people (who are supposed to be playing teens??) to dance seductively and say vulgar things while barely wearing anything.
The voices in Riverdale also sound too obviously studio recorded...
For the first point, Riverdale is about high-school aged teens (I think). The Heathers musical that they did had the high school adaptation of the lyrics to show that it WAS in fact a high school. Also, why wouldn’t the voices be studio-recorded? It’s not necessarily bad that it’s been pre-recorded. I don’t hear people complaining about how movies with songs in them are studio-recorded.
If it wasn’t clear, I’m not on Riverdales side with anything. These adaptations aren’t very good.
*change
*seductively
lol, no hate
@@selenatheabyssalwitch7416 Autocorrect is a bitch.
@@zer0thousand I said they were "too obviously studio recorded" lmao. Of course they're studio recorded.
@@zer0thousand And like "they changed the lyrics because it's an actual highschool" doesn't work when they let them dress and dance like that. No highschool would allow that.
I think Riverdale’s main problem is that they soften the voices in every song. They sound like something you would hear on a pop radio, not like the emotional stories they are supposed to be.
The only semi-good song was 17. Lily and Cole actually sound good together during the chorus, the high notes were good, and the harmonies were pretty
It isn’t even Cole singing
YES.
cuz Lili is a good singer without the horrid autotune. probably one of the only good singers on Riverdale
They kinda took away the meaning of what it was, but on pure singing scale, it was much better than others like Big Fun or Beautiful
@@brie5070 he is singing
Riverdale: Uses the high school version of the Heathers songs used for minors.
Also Riverdale: Oversexualizes characters that are supposed to be minors.
Riverdale’s just the sh!t version of these musicals.
@@anonymouscausewhynot
Riverdale is how a 10 year old girl imagines herself singing in front of her Wattpad crush.
@@randomtraveler4149 that’s actually a great way to describe it. Good job on the clever roast btw.
Right?!
@@randomtraveler4149 riverdale is actually a great show! U should watch it since u obvi haven’t😐
The fact they managed to oversexualize Out Tonight and All That Jazz in a show about teenagers doesn't sit right with me
and then undersexualized candy store lyrics but oversexualized the dance
Out tonight is supposed to be a song about a girl who strips for a club, but even in a song about a FREAKING STRIPPER they oversexualized it.
I think anything goes is also on the list, but I agree with you.
They oversexualised sugar daddy. A song where the choreography is so sexual (Yitzhak and Hedwig humping) that they had to change it for the Tony awards. Like in that song Hedwig is butt naked in public (in context of the song I mean) singing about a sugar daddy in every sense of the word and yet Riverdale still managed to oversexualise it. I didnt think that was possible until Riverdale proved me wrong
My thoughts on the Heathers songs:
Beautiful: They BUTCHERED Beautiful, it’s meant to be about how messed up the school is, and they turn it into the Heathers trying to make Heather C beautiful-er? What’s happening? Just kill me.
Candy Store: What is this? It’s like they’re trying to make it like Veronica also has some level of power over the heathers, and fighting them for it? This feels like a dance battle in a teen show. Never mind, I forgot that’s what it is.
Seventeen: they did pretty good! My only problems lie with the fact that they intertwined it with two couples (I know, I’m being picky) and it’s not “haha we’re depressed emo kids do we still deserve to be 17” like no they killed 3 people that’s why they’re asking it lol
Big Fun: The singing, let’s face it, was horrible. What is up with that? I’m sorry but if you’re going to sing good songs get at least voices that fit the songs for it. I don’t like how they used it.
A few other problems I had: unnecessary censorship, horrible covers, and used the song horribly. Also, the show is basically looking like a wannabe musical rather than whatever the plot of season 1 was, if that still exists.
Sorry for making this so long!
I know this comment is from a while ago, but I completely agree with you here.
@Nickel and Nickeli gaming ikr like the censoring just killed me 😭
exactly.
@Nickel and Nickeli gaming For me it’s D O O R K N O B
Don't apologize, you're right!
I just realized something really strange- despite having the resources for as many voices as they want, Riverdale’s Big Fun sounds like there’s like 4 people singing.
so barret damaged her vocal chords just for Riverdale to disrespect Heathers like that
I know, riverdale really disrespected heathers and made my heart physically hurt
Not just heathers but all musicals lmao
barret needs to chill tbh
@@laurabid she does tho... like go on vocal rest please!
lydia gracias she needs a tea with honey
Keep in mind that the broadway are performed live meanwhile the Riverdale actors have the advantage of multiple takes and autotune
And the Broadway performers still were better
Edit: no hate!!
Ginger Crawford they get much more, how do I say... POWERFUL hate compared to your comment. Don’t worry. 😁
it’s just the auto tune that ruins their voices and makes people think the actors voices are bad in real life which isn’t true at all
they still managed to ruin musicals though
Also they had to change a few things like curse words and other things to be more accepatale on tv
Its so funny how they make the lyrics in Riverdale so Kids friendly sometimes but at the same time they dance all sexy and all to it😭
And mostly, people need to understand that musical theatre is live, so it's genuine, it's authentic. While in Riverdale, they had multiple takes, autotune and not a whole audience before them.
Listen to some cast albums. That's not the only problem
What's especially rough is they had multiple takes and that's their best version
alternate title try not to get triggered by the singing and dancing until you get to the REAL version
i got triggered as soon as they disrespected sutton foster
@TaiMarie Moore Same
TaiMarie Moore me too what were they tryna do never disrespect the queen Sutton Foster
wayne fodor I just wanted to die everyone I heard river dale versions.
True 🤣
You can tell they are screen actors and not live theatre actors
live theater takes real work you practice for months and then once ur on stage thats it spotlights on you, no second chances, no auto tune nothing you have one shot to make opening night a night to remember.
@@Bubblesdefrog I agree. WHen your on a screen show, you can reshoot the scene again and again. THis is why I don't like how they do musicals. Lets keep the broadway actors doing the broadway music. Thank you!
That’s what makes broadway music so special. It takes weeks, even months, to have this show and it’s sold out tickets, a room with hundreds of people and there’s no second chances as someone has said. But with movies, a shoot can be done over and over again and the actors might as well be lip singing
THANK YOU for using Jane Horrocks for Cabaret! Her performance is not for the faint of heart, but it's an absolutely stellar performance!
You know what? Thank you Riverdale.
Now I know what it truly means to put my energy into a song, since it's the exact opposite of what you did.
(Seriously, what in the world happened to Big Fun? Even for songs I didn't know, I could tell something was off before even listening. Next time I do a production, I'm gonna keep this all in mind and put all the energy I can into it *and then some* )
Yes thank you, this comment is so correct, Big Fun seems so lifeless. I’ve done a censored version for Heathers, and honestly with so little we were given and so much improve we did I think we did 10x better than what they did (no offense to the actors)
what's sad is that most of the riverdale cast aren't even bad singers, they're just assigned to songs that don't suit their voice at all then get way over edited until they don't sound real anymore.
lili and casey should've gotten way more singing parts
FR LIKE WHAT DID THEY DO WITH THAT ONE SONG FOR COLE PLS THEY DID HIM SO DIRTY
Whatever the editing is doing- It makes them sound so emotionless and like robots
Ikr like so many of them can sing nicely and then they are like yeah so we know you are a soprano but here’s an alto’s song do it
riverdale: tries to attract theatre kids
theatre kids: *points and laughs*
How low must you go to get bullied by theater kids...
@@josephinemabano4940 Very very low. We are not the most merciful bunch, we will hurt whoever came up with having Riverdale do musicals.
@@hanpar9688 yep
Either the show should just do the songs right or don't do it at all. I vote dont do it at all
@@isabelleyosten8327 same
we can all agree veronica (from riverdale) should have been heather duke not macnamara, betty should’ve been instead, also they just.. did everything wrong with that😭😭
They should have had her as Veronica
Comparing NPH’s Hedwig to Riverdale’s Hedwig is like comparing a bouquet of flowers to a broken femur
Candy Store: *High note*
Vanessa and Madelaine: NOPE
Musical: has a point
Riverdale: takes that point, throws it out and slaps a suggestive dance number on it
"who cares abt plot context and relevance? WE HAVE OVERSEXUALIZED TEENS!"
They take the songs and connect them to what’s going on in the show. And the whole show is over sexualized lol
But so are teenagers
Honestly riverdale should just stop with the musical episodes
cough cough sugar daddy
Broadway Carrie overshadows the Riverdale version so much it's honestly impressive
I miss when Riverdale was a cartoon with a group of friends solving mysteries together with occasional love interest going on 😞😕
Riverdale sounds fake, while the musicals sound like real people singing
Edit: Holy shit- I wasnt expecting getting so many likes all of a sudden-
Bc that’s exactly what it is…
Emily Baran it’s because it is
Smh like I get you have to do it in a studio first with TV but you could at least try to make it sound like they were singing it. In the studio recordings for these Broadway shows, it actually sounded real.
And those weird sound effects were ew
It’s because the riverdale actors aren’t good singers so they have to smooth it out and fix it with autotune so the end result sounds fake😬
How dare they disrespect Sutton Foster like that
Nobody is better than queen sutton
I WAS SO MAD WHEN I HEARD THEIR VERSION OF ANYTHING GOES THERE ARE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS MY ANGER
IKR!!!!!
Ceennabons, Pigfarts, Audits and Chad same I was panicking I was actually doubting that it was the song
@@jlynn4187 Same
The off-broadway Candy Store was honestly amazing. Those girls voices were made to sing together.
I just can't get over the fact that a lot of people know these songs that I love only by these robotic, out of context, lacking any expression, creepily sexualized and commercialized counterparts that can barely be recognized as the same songs.
As crappy as it is, it’s not the Riverdale actor’s faults. There’s literally compilations of the Riverdale actors talking about how they hate the scripts and the musical episodes😂
Ikr
They really did do Heathers dirty though
•J•A•Z•M•I•N•
Yes facts
@Loonylovegood 777 Lili defended it because that was before the show took a weird turn and it's also part of their contract to not bash the show💀
Don’t bash the show.
What they did to Candy Store I just can’t forgive. Like they under sexualised the lyrics but over sexualised the dance??
But censored the words, like wtf
And let’s not forget that there weren’t any harmonies 😐
now lets skip to dead girl walking to find some quality lyrics; *all hope is gone*
i saw people on the comments of the actual video and the other heathers ones being like "omg so good" BEECH WHAT
I get if they wanna censor some words, sure, but if they changed 'pussy' to 'doorknob', why is 'bitch and moan' still the same 😂
They didn’t totally ruin 17 but they did lose the message, the whole point of that song was to show Veronica’s desperation for JD to change his ways. To show that he didn’t have to hurt everyone else to be able to love her. She was trying to save him
the way heather sings "don't you dare touch me," in beautiful just makes me die inside
Riverdale’s all that jazz really just feels like they’re trying way too hard to sexualize the song ? Most of it as I’ve seen is like that though I think. It might be the auto tune but all of their voices just sound. So weird? Like really weirdly 2 dimensional
No, I agree. I think why it works in the musical is because it’s not a sexual, and it hints into all the themes that will later show. This is just ladies rolling on the floor, trying to show off.
they have NO emotion Riverdale when they sing, its just about hitting the note it seems. especially when the autotune is added, it flattens all tone
also the Carrie one reminds me of Trisha Paytas doing Beetlejuice 😬
and they tried to make the choreo very very um smooth and slick when it’s supposed to be controlled
Not to mention, the characters are literal TEENAGERS
I don’t like how they tried to like sexualize anything goes it just sounded so weird
Kaylee Garay ikr
I know, it was in minor like what?-
I think the minor key was a cool concept, it just wasn’t delivered properly
I like the remake but not the visuals
at least kate capshaw's one in temple of doom is straight up authentic
OKAY BUT WHYS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT HOW GOOD LILI AND COLE SOUND IN SEVENTEEN
Honestly that ones actually pretty good, the harmonies and it wasn’t so over the top
I mean it was okay but idk I can’t get into it (btw I think their voices are great, but like every 2 seconds it switches to Venessa and Madeleine and it breaks the mood for me. It’s supposed to be a “love song” between two ppl, I wish they kept it between either Madeleine and Venessa or Cole and Lily.)
It wasn't as good as the original but they actually did the harmonies this time so yeah it was better than the others.
When Cheryl sang Carrie it loooked so funny i burst out laughing
I hate how riverdale over sexualises everything, like candy store and all that jazz. It makes me really uncomfortable
Same doe
Especially considering that the characters are supposed to be teenagers....
They over-sexualize it yet they also censored most of the lyrics which makes it even worse
I swear they're like minors?
@@ITSMETHESHEEP "you just gotta prove you're not a DOORKNOB anymore~" Hm.... makes sense

It’s legit like they didn’t even try. Like, wtf is that singing? I know _children_ who can sing some of these songs better. It’s _so_ offkey.
RIVERDALE JUST COMPLETELY SCREWED OVER HEATHERS
Ikr they legit forgot the entire ensemble it’s like do they know nearly all musicals have ensembles or backup singers and they sounded horrible and don’t even get me started with the Choreography
what’s striking is how much more powerful the broadway versions felt and how much more personality and character the songs had. in riverdale the covers just feel… flat :(
This just made me appreciate Neil Patrick Harris even more 😊
*Cole Sprouse: made it trough his entire Disney carier without singing*
Riverdale: yea let's change that
Nope dylan and cole both sang. They were in the disney all stars music video for circle of life
S A they didn’t sing on their shows/movies
they did sing they sang in the suite life when they went on a cruise and their mom got sun burnt and couldn’t sing so they filled in for her.
Yeah Cole sprouse cant sing
Pretty sure they blended his voice with Ryan McCarten's for those harmonies because he's pitchy on the rest of the song and then nails the harmonies.
The fact that Broadway performances are live and that still sound better... I-
Right
Not only that, but live performers have to sing up to eight times. A week sometimes. If i recall correctly, Veronica's actress (Barrett) had to do 2 shows a day at times and Riverdale has the audacity to use these takes🤦♂️

15 year olds are better than that, or at least they put more effort into it

I know it’s technically an off-Broadway performance, but I would have done the Seattle show for Carrie. Such a phenomenal performance.

In my opinion, all of the songs were MUCH better in broadway then they are in riverdale 🧍♀️
People were right when they said 17 wasn’t that bad
Literally the only song they didn’t butcher 😭
when they had to drop the octave for “and end up like her” in candy store at 14:20 i DIED
That's a somewhat normal thing to do if you really don't want to/can't replace the actor
Rainbow Rose yeah i’m a singer and am well aware of the concept, i just thought it was funny
@Brynn Chapman they could've lowered the key for the whole song though. It's just very underwhelming when you thought it would be the climax but then it turned out to sound quiet bcs they lowered the key on that particular line

Sad Siren oh that’s actually really cool! At least some fans wanted to check out the musical
@@sadsiren3208 Yeah, that's really good to hear but I just doubt there are actual high numbers when it comes to going to look at the source material. You're allowed to like the episode, but riverdale just can't hold a candle to the originals. The biggest disrespect is Anything Goes as well. Went from a fast song to get your foot tapping to... a balad? A slow sad song? Wat?
Yep and tbh I bet some of the younger viewers of river dale prob think the songs r from river dale which is acc just sad af
I love the wii sports song in the beginning😂
the meaning taken out of every heathers song 😭
Ok y'all talk about heathers and carrie but they literally MURDERED anything goes and cabaret
They murdered everything. If they touch Hamilton, DEH, Beetlejuice, Mean girls, or literally anything else I will die.
OMG AND ANYTHING GOES!!!!! ☠️☠️☠️
The one Veronica sang from Cabaret was better then the og tbh the og was way to boring
fr they made anything goes so fucking sad
@@jatyamxx I will riot if they touch my dear conner murphy
the biggest pain for me in the riverdale heathers is the end of candy store, like it’s so weak and they just let it fade off
Same 😔
The fact that my grandpa loved this show surprises me in more ways than one
I wish we heard lilli reinhart song mote, her voice is so stunning and, I would have loved to hear it more
Can we talk about how dirty they did candy store? Their version doesn’t even make sense...
AND THE WHIP NOISE
AND THE CLIPPITY CLOP OF THE SHOE NOISES
AND THE WEIRD SHAKING IN THEIR VOICES
AND THE OFF NOTES
AND THE END 😭
ASSFGJKL-
Lozza Jacko YESSSSS 😭😭😭
Ewwwwwww
candy store was bad but C A R R I E
They didnt fol,ow a very important rule of musical theatre.
QUIET FEET PEOPLE QUIET FEET
lowering the harmonies an octave because none of the actors have the vocal range to go that high.
Can we say prayers for Casey Cott, out fellow theatre kid who broke his back carrying the entire show on his back
I think Lili was a theater kid too lol
Not just him along with the girl that sang with pussycats
His brother is on BROADWAY and river day is really punishing him
Yeah, Lili and the girl who plays Veronica, are also theatre kids. Although, Casey Cott does bring the magic to these renditions.
Bruv i only watch riverdale to see Casey..his character is my favourite tbh, so that’s why i watch it. and i wanna see how much worse it gets
Did you know that there’s also a song from ride the cyclone in riverdale? Karnak’s dream of life! “I know this dream of life is never ending” THAT one!
"Which do you pick?" That's not even a debate! Riverdale ruined everything. Casey Cott was the only one who could do anything and that's because he and his brother actually do musical theater.
literally the actors are like "we did not sign up for this" lmao 😖😖
Yeah they have to get all the backlash for the directors bullshit
Cole Sprouse: I was able to avoid it for so long, but alas, good things have to end
