Ok from 1:51-1:55 not only did the trumpets individually nail that run and make no mistakes, they were ALSO perfectly balanced and I feel like that deserves some more recognition lol.
This is exactly the same arrangement, same tempo as the stage presentation BUT it's only 1/2 of what was in the Broadway show. The whole opening section in the choir robes is gone, about 4-5 minutes from the actual stage performance was taken out for TV. It really changes the whole number. If you didn't see the actual show , you're not aware of this BUT the tempo & vocal & dance arrangement are the same.
That's how it goes, when you're a (talented like all get-out) pro. My mom danced in the original Broadway production ...she would have adored Sutton Foster.
That's one of the things I like best about Sutton - she seems to get so much joy out of what she does, and the enthusiasm is catching. "Can you believe I get to do this every night?"
I went to see Sutton for the first time at The Barbican, London on Saturday and I’m still in shock! Nothing prepares you for her talent in person, she's absolutely incredible!!! Countless standing ovations during the show, people in tears from sheer joy, it was a life changing experience!
Same here 😁 I saw her performance on the One Show and just had to go. I went to a show at the Barbican as well and completely blown away by her talent and goosebumps on goosebumps is totally correct.
as someone whos done a westend show of this musical i need to reiterate that this is the most fun number in the entire show by a long shot and i wouldnt be surprised if all those huge bright smiles are 100% genuine everyone would get so pumped when the intermission ended and it was time for this one that it was an effort to look like a bored hoity toity rich guy because youd just be vibrating with energy in anticipation of that dance to that balling music and youd look around to see your cast members white-knuckling the prop wine glasses to stop their hands shaking with excitement i come back to this song every once in a while just to relive that because i'll never forget it and it looks like it's a universal experience
It's really amazing how they were able to trim a full blown Broadway production number down to fit Letterman's performance area and still pull it off with this much power.
One criticism I've heard is that Sutton Foster can't "belt it out "as is required for this part. However, after seeing and hearing this, I think those people must be nuts. She belts it out just great and she looks great too.
The tone of Fosters voice is fine and articulated with a clean belt. A heavier and shiny voice is the best but then they don’t usually have the dancing anywhere near as strong. Or the words get muddled in too many overtones and the audience misses the innuendo. Reno Sweeney is a nightclub singer by design. Foster did an incredible job being both scissor leg dancer and clear voiced vocals. Completely unified with jaunt and sass.
@@llcooljay520 I saw her in this a few weeks ago and this number got the longest applause I've ever heard in my entire life. Literally like 5 mins. She was phenomenal.
As someone who did a production of Anything Goes, "Blow Gabriel Blow" was DEFINITELY the MOST FUN number to perform, I always cracked a HUGE SMILE 😁singing out the last note.
THIS is the number and the moment l judge everything else in musicals by. It heads the class, which includes things like “All that Jazz”, “l’m the Greatest Star”, “Sit Down, You’re Rockin’ the
The Boat. BEST number l ever saw on the David Letterman’s show! Mad respect for all involved in the staging and in the expanded version of the revival itself.
I LOVE SUTTON FOSTER!! I had no idea she was even a Broadway star! I know her from her show, Younger, on TVLand. She's really sexy and funny on that show, but I had _no idea_ she could sing and dance so beautifully! I can't stop watching her in the "Anything Goes" Grammy performance. Holy shit snacks! Go, Liza!!
CatherineAnn923 Same, I knew her as Lizaaaaa 😍 I saw her at the Mormon Tabernacle Christmas Concert last night and I legit cried. I couldn't believe I was in the same room as her!
This cast this music on this legendary stage was what made Mr. Letterman the best. This is why the world loves NYC and Broadway. And if the brunette is single your fan in Edmonton loves everything you are!
Saw the show on Wednesday afternoon, and I would see it again every day if I could!! Sutton Foster and the entire cast deserve all of the accolades they receive for this show!!
My name is Gabrielle (female form of the name, but the angel was my namesake), I play the trumpet, and my high school is doing Anything Goes for our musical. I'm so pumped for this show.
How do they remember where to position themselves without bumping into each other? Amazing dance troupe. Saw 42nd Street at The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane. What a fabulous, glitzy and stunning show.
Watching this I would imagine it couldn't get better. I was wrong. Just saw the filmed version of this. A stage show filmed in 2021, ten years after this version. AMAZING!! Sutton Foster is phenomenal and not to be believed! It was in Theaters for only two showings in U.K. in 2021 and recently in USA for two showings in March 2022. Pray they bring it back to cinemas so Sutton Foster can take us to the promised land again! Don't miss it if at all possible! THANKS FOR POSTING
Just saw the full London video (2021) and couldn't agree more. It's not just her singing and dancing, but her terrific comic timing in her dialogue. The way she works with the rest of the cast is a dream, and her number with veteran Robert Lindsay - the (added) song "Friendship" - is blissfully over-the-top: two pros at the top of their game having a ball and making each lyric and joke land!
@@manuelorozco7760 the only thing i will say to that is she started out on broadway then made the transition to the screen. not saying she couldn’t do it because i’m sure she could
What an amazing performance by Sutton and the ensemble. I feel like many people are overly critical of her performance as Reno Sweeney overall. I grew up with her being the only Reno, but as I became more familiar with all those who came before her and will come after her, Sutton definitely kills it. People like Elaine Paige, Patti Lupone, and Ethan Merman all have highly respected performances, and for their reputation and personal preference I personally prefer the more old school Renos; but I wildly appreciate Sutton Foster's version, especially since the dancing is so mesmerizing. Personally as someone who does not consider dance a strong suit, I feel for the Renos who couldn't do what Foster did, and I'm happy with any performance as long as they don't turn Reno into a squeaky chorus girl.
@@mikegiblin1559 I just took your advice only to discover this lady will be performing with Hugh Jackman on stage next year. Thanks for your discovery advice. Ciao!
This is one of those numbers you just have to see live. Saw this on the American Tour a few years ago and the audience didn't stop clapping for two or three minutes. They really blew it out of the water!
That blond girl that's behind Sutton in the beginning is really special. Her stage presence is great and she really seems to understand the time period and the character she is playing. I dunno, I just could not keep my eyes off of her. (Or Sutton)
That dance move they do between 3:05 - 3:07 really highlights the difference between good and great dancers. You'll have to rewind each time, but take a look at each of the 4 girl dancers separately in the front perform that move and you can see that the brunette on the left is the best. Her head, arm, and leg movements just set her apart from the others. She just has that it" factor. Does anyone know her name?
+FreedomFighter2112 Well, agreed but how much is it affected by being on the stage of the tonight show instead of being at the regular venue at the theatre. I would reserve judgement for the show as I know none could make the cast without being an excellent dancer.
+FreedomFighter2112 You can actually tell that from the whole video; from the beginning she exhales that special something that makes her different from the others.
I see the last comment was about 5 years ago but I had the incredible experience of seeing her perform this (the whole show) in a NYC Revival circa 2011 As a woodwind musician and semi professional singer (at the time) I was in AWE and my friend who surprised me with the tickets DOUBLE surprised me and somehow got me 3rd row center!
Wow. I'm in shock. Titillating performance. I didn't think it was possible for Mrs. Foster to be more beautiful than the "Anything Goes" song, but she pulled it off.
as a very tall dancer I always love seeing Sutton Perform with more average height dancers because it makes me feel less self conscious about myself! she’s an inch shorter than me and she looks graceful and kills it! makes me feel less like a baby giraffe learning how to walk for the first time and love my long twig legs! :’)
She still had it even however many years it was after performing this role when she did the London Revival. She is an excellent performer in anything she does
@@manuelorozco7760 it was so amazing! i cried when she came out onstage just from the sheer realization of it all. i’m actually going to see her in the music man this week too which i’m also super stoked for
Ok from 1:51-1:55 not only did the trumpets individually nail that run and make no mistakes, they were ALSO perfectly balanced and I feel like that deserves some more recognition lol.
Cami Johnson trumpet gang 🤘🏻
Flute here but yes instruments appreciation!!
Why, it's Gabriel, Gabriel blowin'!
The musicians and sound techs never get the credit due
@@evalevy2909 Thank you! I need more Broadway instrumentals!
how is it that she looks fabulous in ANY haircolor? She is my absolute idol. Just phenomenal. Broadway misses her!
well lauren she’s back on broadway go see her!
@@td9543I saw her in Sweeney Todd, she was amazing!
I wish the cast recording version was this tempo. It sounds so much more exciting at this speed imo but Sutton and this ensemble are fabulous!
Oh my gosh! It's ASHE!! I LOVE your cover SO much. I'm in this play right now!
Superakextras *covers

***** I LOVE your covers , glad to know you're into musicals as well
+mmbr01rrf the tempo is actually quite a bit slower on the cast album. Here it kicks a little faster. It tends to drag on the album.
Her little three jumps on her low notes make me happy. You can tell she loves this number!
On another YT video.she says its her favourite number.
We also loves this number 😉
She looks like she is having the time of her life
Grace Knauss I mean,can you blame her?
That's how it goes, when you're a (talented like all get-out) pro.
My mom danced in the original Broadway production ...she would have adored Sutton Foster.
That's one of the things I like best about Sutton - she seems to get so much joy out of what she does, and the enthusiasm is catching. "Can you believe I get to do this every night?"
She is
Tbh if i was doing stuff like this i would be having the time of my life too because it looks like so much fun
Sutton's got legs for daaaaays
I went to see Sutton for the first time at The Barbican, London on Saturday and I’m still in shock! Nothing prepares you for her talent in person, she's absolutely incredible!!! Countless standing ovations during the show, people in tears from sheer joy, it was a life changing experience!
Same I had goosebumps on goosebumps she was fantastic
Same here 😁 I saw her performance on the One Show and just had to go. I went to a show at the Barbican as well and completely blown away by her talent and goosebumps on goosebumps is totally correct.
Totally agree, I saw her a month ago and was absolutely electrified!
Same, such a great performance left feeling elated!
The BBC had it on over Xmas too so we have it now to keep on out tivo
I saw the West End proshot on PBS. That’s why I’m here
I love "Blow Gabriel Blow", because even Cole Porter himself never actually believed with what exactly he got away with in that song! 😂
I've no idea what you mean ;)
Have no clue either
as someone whos done a westend show of this musical i need to reiterate that this is the most fun number in the entire show by a long shot and i wouldnt be surprised if all those huge bright smiles are 100% genuine
everyone would get so pumped when the intermission ended and it was time for this one that it was an effort to look like a bored hoity toity rich guy because youd just be vibrating with energy in anticipation of that dance to that balling music and youd look around to see your cast members white-knuckling the prop wine glasses to stop their hands shaking with excitement
i come back to this song every once in a while just to relive that because i'll never forget it
and it looks like it's a universal experience
It's really amazing how they were able to trim a full blown Broadway production number down to fit Letterman's performance area and still pull it off with this much power.
I’ve seen that with Nice Work If You Can Get It
I actually like this staging sooo much better. The tight confines focuses, streamlines and enhances the whole number. ❤
@@brentchavis9016 That's true. I've seen a fan video of the Broadway version and this is a lot better.
One criticism I've heard is that Sutton Foster can't "belt it out "as is required for this part. However, after seeing and hearing this, I think those people must be nuts. She belts it out just great and she looks great too.
Idk, I disagree. I loved her Anything Goes, but this does feel like a phenomenal performer doing a song meant for a different type.
I saw her do this live twice and she can totally belt it out of the park. This number and "Anything Goes" at the end of Act 1 brought the house down.
The tone of Fosters voice is fine and articulated with a clean belt. A heavier and shiny voice is the best but then they don’t usually have the dancing anywhere near as strong.

it's all in her nose
I can't tell you how many times I have watched this. Every single time, it still takes my breath away. The magic of Broadway.... And Sutton Foster.
11 years later and I still come back for that brunette male dancer🤷♂️😩💀🕯🥰
She makes it look effortless...
As someone who did a production of Anything Goes, "Blow Gabriel Blow" was DEFINITELY the MOST FUN number to perform, I always cracked a HUGE SMILE 😁singing out the last note.
This woman never EVER ceases to amaze me.
I am sick and I have rehearsal from 3-10pm tomorrow. instead of sleeping, I'm watching every video of Sutton Foster possible
Sutton's always good for what ails ya!

Who else thinks she would make a great Roxie?
Yes!!
I honestly think she would be a great Velma
El Sheets me me and me she has the bod face and voice to really pop off as roxie hart!
I mean, she’d probably make a great everything

SO MUCH TALENT. Sutton Foster is a goddess. What a delight it is to watch her sing and perform.
Just fabulous. Sutton Foster is this generation's Patti Lupone, I hope she gets more roles that can showcase her talent like this.
I think Patti Lupone's voice is much better.
@@nancybadian1175 If you like brassy rasp with no nuance or diction, sure, LuPone is better I guess 🙄
@@TheWizardOfBonk I can tell you're a fan of straw men. Sutton can't catch Patti.

Word.

CatherineAnn923 Oh she's one of the most famous Broadway actresses ever!
She never ‘throws a move away’. She means every beat. Everything is intended and powerful.
The stunning mega~watt talent of Broadway's Sutton Foster!
Truly the very best performance of this ever.
This cast this music on this legendary stage was what made Mr. Letterman the best. This is why the world loves NYC and Broadway. And if the brunette is single your fan in Edmonton loves everything you are!
I’m a California native who never been to NYC
It's 2:00 am. I have an exam tomorrow morning. What am I doing here?
+Canadian Fangirl How did you do on the exam? Just wondering.
Same here 😂 I have a show run tomorrow since opening night is on Thursday. I should be sleeping!
+gjm1953 51% 😂😂🔫 thanks, Sutton
I have asked myself that question so many times and so often it's thanks to Sutton Foster
Haha! For me it is just after midnight. I haven't put my kids to bed yet and we have church in the morning.
Cole Porter was a genius. Foster camps this up a little. The dance routine is spectacular.
Saw the show on Wednesday afternoon, and I would see it again every day if I could!! Sutton Foster and the entire cast deserve all of the accolades they receive for this show!!
PBS Great Performances sent me here! I love the dancing and costumes. Sutton Foster is a rare triple threat in modern musical theatre
Infectious perfection all around. This number got me tappin’, clappin’ and jumpin’ in my seat. Blow Gabriel blow!
Sutton would be amazing in Chicago!!!
I was fortunate enough to see her in this show (front row center) and she was fantastic! I loved it from beginning to end.
You know, besides the voice, the acting, the dancing........she's also got some great gams!
ABSOLUTE PERFECTION. THE CHOREOGRAPHY BLOWS ME AWAY. SUTTON FOSTER IS A TRUE TALENT.

This song and “sit down, you’re rocking the boat”…I can’t listen to either on without thinking the other.

Wow, fabulous choreography and singing like the angel⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Brought the show's band along with the cast. Gotta love the trumpet player.
WOW! I have always loved Jonathan Pryce’s version from De Lovely… BUT have to say I WISH I could have see Sutton LIVE!! AMAZING ❤

Truly one of the best Theatre performers of all time!!!
My daughter's starting to get really into dance and choir. I'm showing her this tomorrow. Awesome stuff.
I keep coming back to this video. Sutton is fantastic here, prefer this to the cast recording.
How does she belt like that after that dance break? She's so amazing, omg Sutton
I just watched this video two days ago and I think I've literally seen it more than 15 times as of today
She looks so freaking perfect in this!
Sutton is a national treasure. Amazing the entire time. You watch her always! Personally I think has been her best role.
She's freaking gorgeous
All woman, all talent, all class.
Love Sutton Foster
me too!
The act 1 finale of this revival was AMAZING!!!!! She was awesome

one word. perfection.

Can't stop watching this - it's perfection!!
I LOVE HER SOOOOO MUCHHH
Great camera work for a one night appearance!

she's so pretty and especially when she smiles what the hell
I saw a live performance in december, 2011. OUTSTANDING!
i love this to a extent i can’t explain
I see the last comment was about 5 years ago but I had the incredible experience of seeing her perform this (the whole show) in a NYC Revival circa 2011
As a woodwind musician and semi professional singer (at the time) I was in AWE and my friend who surprised me with the tickets DOUBLE surprised me and somehow got me 3rd row center!
Sutton is too perfect for this world
Wow. I'm in shock. Titillating performance. I didn't think it was possible for Mrs. Foster to be more beautiful than the "Anything Goes" song, but she pulled it off.
as a very tall dancer I always love seeing Sutton Perform with more average height dancers because it makes me feel less self conscious about myself! she’s an inch shorter than me and she looks graceful and kills it! makes me feel less like a baby giraffe learning how to walk for the first time and love my long twig legs! :’)
This was a great performance
Can't believe this was so long ago. I saw it on Broadway from the second row. Stunning.
I wish this version of the show was available on DVD.
Saw this last night in New York :) Best number!
I LOVE her. Even her facial expressions are entertaining.
She still had it even however many years it was after performing this role when she did the London Revival. She is an excellent performer in anything she does
I just saw the proshot on PBS last night. Surprises me how she can still keep up at her age
Sutton Foster is perfection!
This is awesome. Love Sutton!

How was it?
