- The original Rose Grant/Alvarez and Star Trek's Lieutenant Commander Data recreate the opening and closing numbers from Bye Bye Birdie. Chita says: "The people who try and change 'Birdie' tend to mess it up. It's anchored in a particular time and place. In my opinion, the original ending that (director) Gower Champion gave it is inspired. The musical theater that I came from always ended the same way: After all these big numbers, the whole cast comes downstage and sings whatever was supposed to be the show's hit song in this big, overblown fashion.
What Gower did to end 'Birdie' was to have two people, Albert and Rose singing this very simple, very sweet song called 'Rosie' and just walking into the sunset. It couldn't have been more effective or more beautiful."
Ahhhhh Brent spiner....is there really any one greater??? Or more hot then a guy his age and a guy with his many talents?? Ahh Brent you ate truly a miracle and I am glad that we are living in the same century, though we may never meet I just have one wish.....don't stop!
RIP Chita ❤️
Adorable! Lovin Brent. *ahem..mad crush*
He makes me giddy as a school-grrrrl.
He should do more musical theater.
Still, for 76, Chita's still got it.
watching brent spiner made me :) :) :)
watching brent spiner sing and dance made me :D :D :D
Brent Spiner is the best kind of ham - one with the talent to back it up, in the tradition of Martin Short or Mandy Patinkin.
First time hearing this, and my heart is singing and fluttering. I'm just waiting for it to melt....ah.... Brent Spiner :)
she is 68 years old here...look at her go
That was so sweet. I love how they danced off the stage at the end.
This is so fantastic 🥰 this video needs more attention. They’re both fantastic. And Brent 😍 goodness gracious could he be any more handsome and charming 💕💕💕
She got to kiss him. Lucky girl.
I would love to dance with Brent.
He’s so talented
Amen to that, Sara! He has the best Broadway pipes!
Thanks for posting this and all the other Chita clips. And thanks for the Chita quote in the description. Great clips and quotes that I had never seen. Thank you!
Brent Spiner is really good singing!
Thank you for posting this!
Swoon times a billion.
Oh, he's that guy from master of disguise! I didn't know he could sing! Well he sinbes good.
... Missed Star Trek: The Next Generation? Or Night Court? Maybe Out to Sea? No recollection of an android?
How high are those heels and she still seems short next to him.
Brent is about six feet tall, but yeah. She's probably a pretty small woman.
GHEE I LOVE THIS =D
Okay I stage managed this show and made parodies to every song. Rosie became my “William Shatner” opus.
@mithol The song does not say he' s paid well. Rosie wants Albert to have a stable, predictable life instead of the unstable music industry.
When did this air, and who else was in this show?
Where can I get this?
WTH?? These two are WAY better performers than we're seeing here. Were they asleep??
