  • I love this impromptu performance Crowe and Jackman did, I like it more than the movie version. But it always bothered me that all the recordings of this were flawed in some way. All shakey camera, bad audio. So I did an edit that utilises the sound from the best sounding one, and all three camera perspectives I could find.

      Because he wasn’t forced to sing full throttle for take after take after take. There’s a reason why musicals on film record the songs on an audio track separately from the live action.

      The movie had a ton of production issues. Which led to their perfomances being off due to countless problems. This set-up is much much simpler where they can focus on performing while ACTUALLY hearing the music this time. 😂

    • @L1623VP
      @L1623VP Před měsícem +1

      I thought the live singing was a fantastic change. The singing feels real and authentic, unlike lip-synced movie musicals. What I disliked was that Jackman and Crowe tried too hard to "act" the songs instead of singing them, so their vocal support was shallow, and a lot of the lyrics had to be "talked" instead of sung, and others got chocked off because of too much emoting. They could have sung just like this during live takes, but they were too focused on chewing up the scenery with their "acting", especially Jackman.
